We finally got around to covering each end of our deck with clear panels; which protect us from the coastal wind and rain. It creates a cozy gathering spot for Autumn afternoons and evenings too. I love to bundle up with my coffee and sit on the deck each morning. I can hear the waves crashing and watch the hummingbirds playing in the fountain….it's a great way to start the day – anytime of the year!
I picked up the hanging lanterns and little white metal planters from Ikea the last time I was in Portland. The wooden boat with striped sails is from one of our local gift shops and is a favorite accent piece. (Favorite piece means that it moves all over the beach house both inside and out because I love it so much).
We've moved our potted plants up to the deck to protect the from the cool evenings. They seem to like it!
Chives, pansies and a seahorse on our deck…
With our unusually warm summer and autumn, our plants are still blooming (and re-blooming) like crazy.
And when we aren't enjoying the garden, our back deck or roasting marshmallows….we enjoy going around the corner to watch the waves and sunsets over the Pacific Ocean.
Hope you have a beautiful weekend….

Seriously, the shower heads are at 5', which means the water stream hits in the middle of your chest if your 5' 10" which I am. After a morning of acrobatic contortions to wash my hair I asked about changing to a room with a different shower set up. I was told "they're all that way".

Thompson v. Esserman
|0 Comments
A court can warn a pro se plaintiff that unless the pro se provides a recognizance within 14 days the court will dismiss the pro se's suit, for lack of jurisdiction. The pro se plaintiff, Robert Thompson, sued the defendants, who moved to dismiss and argued that the court lacked jurisdiction, because the plaintiff failed to provide a signed recognizance. Practice Book §8-4 provides, "[N]o mesne process shall be issued until the recognizance of a third party for costs has been taken, unless the authority signing the writ shall certify thereon that he or she has personal knowledge as to the financial responsibility of the plaintiff and deems it sufficient." The New Haven Superior Court held in Royster v. Crown Towing, a 2011 decision, that a plaintiff's failure to comply with Practice Book §8-4 led to insufficient service of process. Superior Court Judge Robin Wilson wrote in Cherry v. City of New Haven, a 2010 decision, that "plaintiffs who are pro se or indigent are not exempt from filing the required recognizance." Even pro se litigants are required to comply with the Connecticut Practice Book. The court ordered Thompson to file a recognizance within 14 days and warned Thompson that the complaint may be dismissed, for lack of jurisdiction, if Thompson fails to file the recognizance.

Union Insurance Company and other insurers entered into an "Agency-Company Agreement," with broker Hull & Company, providing Hull with binding authority. Hull bound risk from the Thirsty Parrot Bar and Grill, including umbrella coverage from Union. The Thirsty Parrot ultimately settled a covered assault claim against one its former employees, to which Union contributed $800,000. Union sought recompense from Hull, alleging that Hull breached underwriting guidelines which were incorporated by reference into the Agency-Company Agreement. Union sought to compel arbitration of its claim, but Hull resisted. The Court refused to compel arbitration under a provision allowing arbitration of disputes pertaining to "misunderstanding as to the interpretation or application of any provision of this Agreement." The Court found that the dispute over underwriting guidelines was not related or collateral to interpretation of the Agency-Company Agreement, because it found that Union failed to establish that the underwriting guidelines were incorporated by reference into the Agreement, and thus the dispute did not come within the Agreement's arbitration provision. Union Ins. Co. v. Hull &Company, Inc., Case No. 4-00337 (USDC S.D. Iowa Dec. 19, 2011).

You know you are getting old when you don't care about owning things anymore. Except for Google limiting my freedom of choice to install a better browser like Firefox, a computer for $10/month sounds great as long as that includes awesome connectivity and bandwidth! Where do I sign :-) ?
I'd also like bicycles by subscription. I'd pay $40 a month for example for a vintage bicycle cruiser (Danu at The World Cycles here in East Vancouver has many many fantastic cruisers from the 1930s, 40s and the 50s) with all the bells and whistles (hub dynamo, 3-10 gears, built in powerful lights, fenders, chain guard).
I think there's a small, fun "lifestyle" business there: for folks who want an awesome bicycling experience and don't want to do bike maintenance: pay upfront a deposit of a few hundred dollars and then $40-50 a month (which includes monthly quick tuneups). In return you get an fantastic bike impeccably maintained with all the goodies.
Older and wiser
Hey Roland - I am with you on not owning things yet having the services. The idea of the bike service could also work for computers, etc.
thanks mike!
the bike industry for example has a lot to learn from the car industry, why not lease bicycles like we do cars or have bicycle coops like car co-ops?

For the first time in five seasons, the NCAA Division III championship in women's lacrosse will not involve a team from the Centennial Conference as both Gettysburg College and Franklin & Marshall College fell in the national semifinals hosted at Clark Field on Saturday, May 22.
Gettysburg (18-4) was upended on its own turf as Salisbury University (20-1) punched its way into the title game with a 20-12 victory over the Bullets. Gettysburg has been to the national semifinals four times in the last five seasons. Since beginning play on Clark Field in 2005, Gettysburg has put up an impressive record of 49-8 at home, including a 5-2 record in the NCAA Tournament.

July 26:
"UP is basically giving us options for what kind of a bridge would be replaced their, but the villages are going to have no direct involvement in terms of the engineering of the bridge," said Todd Hileman, Glenview's village manager. "What we're being asked to do is provide input on what type of bridge and the length of the bridge that we want in there."
July 25:
As the investigation into the July 4 train derailment and subsequent bridge collapse that killed a Glenview couple continues, Union Pacific officials change their initial statement regarding rail inspections.
July 23:
The railroad industry has experienced at least four derailments in the last few weeks, according to an FRA release. Under existing laws, the FRA does not have the authority to deny the rebuilding of a rail bridge.
July 19:
According to Union Pacific spokesman Mark Davis, despite the result of the July 4 derailment, the signal maintainer who reported a rail abnormality acted appropriately and did just about everything he was trained to.
July 17:
A signal maintainer at the scene of the July 4 train derailment witnessed a rail abnormality before the accident and called for a Union Pacific inspector, who arrived "about simultaneously" as the bridge collapsed, said David Connell, Vice President of Engineering for Union Pacific, during a public forum with Glenview-Northbrook residents.
July 13:
"My customers from Glenview are not coming here," Young Shin, a Glenview resident and owner of told the Sun-Times. "Making our lease payment will not be easy."

"There was no better way to go than together," the Lindner's son Matthew said. "They were each other's world. He was her rock, and he couldn't endure life without her."
July 8:
A North Shore native reflects on Wednesday's collapsed bridge and recalls a similar event more than 30 years ago.
July 6:
Clean-up crews and freight service are ordered to halt for 36 hours as experts hired by the Lindner family's attorneys investigate the site of Wednesday's bridge collapse. Union Pacific is sued for wrongful death.
July 6:
Federal Railroad Administration inspectors determine Union Pacific's temporary bridge is structurally sound. A public meeting with Union Pacific to address resident questions and concerns is scheduled for July 16.

July 5:
Construction crews have laid down a temporary rail where the bridge collapsed Wednesday afternoon. Freight service resumed in one direction. Vehicle traffic on Shermer won't reopen until the bridge is rebuilt. Union Pacific still unsure when bridge reconstruction will begin.

Ben and Jessi were married this past June, and ever since they returned from their honeymoon, Jessi has been leaving her husband love notes in his lunch every day.
"I really found them to be heartwarming," Ben tells us about the notes, penned on the yellow and grey napkins leftover from their wedding. "For her to not only pack lunch for me, but to include a little message to brighten my day, blew me away. As I realized they were becoming a regular thing, they became something I looked forward to each day and I made sure to save them."
Some of the messages are sweet: "To my husband, you look so handsome today and always," or "I appreciate everything you do for us." Some are funny: "Sorry we're out of food" or "After today, only one more day of casserole!" But they're all written with love.More of the Good News:

A Mountain of Crumbs
A writer recalls a Soviet childhood, lived at the height of the cold war.
Like "Angela's Ashes," the memoir of her one-time teacher Frank McCourt, Gorokhova's A Mountain of Crumbs opens with a wish that youth had been an easier enterprise." Both tales rest largely on childhood depredation, whether in famished Ireland or socialist Russia, and the cataloging of both personal and national grievances, leavened with wistful humor, is a modus operandi Gorokhova clearly learned from her acclaimed mentor. They also share an unabashed longing for America, where both would eventually find themselves.Skip to next paragraph
Subscribe Today to the Monitor
Despite Gorokhova's debts to McCourt, "A Mountain of Crumbs" is not a Russian version of "Angela's Ashes." Gorokhova may lack McCourt's lush storytelling skills, but her book is also free – thankfully – of his sugary sentiment. "A Mountain of Crumbs" is a straightforward account of Russia in the postwar decades, one that takes the reader confidently through the slow sinking of the Soviet ship. Like despotic Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin, Gorokhova was born in Leningrad in the early 1950s and came of age during the cold war. This memoir offers valuable insight into those bleak years bracketed by Khrushchev and Afghanistan, from which the nation emerged with the bruised ego it has since aggressively sought – under Putin's guidance – to burnish.
Gorokhova's story begins far from the palaces of Leningrad, in the village of Ivanovo, where her mother, a doctor, loses two husbands – to alcoholism, illness, and the ravages of World War II – before finally making her way to Leningrad with her third, an older and established Communist Party member. Necessarily imagined by Gorokhova, these early rural scenes lack the immediacy of later passages in which her own childhood is rendered with sharp detail. But she does recount an amusing episode in which her mother, indignant that Ivanovo has no maternity ward, writes to Stalin that "the Soviet women, who toil in peat swamps for our common bright future, deserve better." Some time later, she is summoned by the local health commissioner. She is mortified, since
others had earned trips to the Gulag for far less, but learns instead that Moscow has awarded 15,000 rubles for her proposed project. It is between such straits of terror and promise that the Soviet leadership hemmed in its populace.

You can make Pajama Pants - they are the first thing to learn when sewing. I taught a sewing class to 5 yr olds and the project was PJ Pants. So grab a pattern and get to sewing! For these I didn't grab a pattern which was a bad idea because they didn't fit well. I learned for next time. I used a flannel sheet set I bought at a garage sale, even using the elastic from the fitted sheet for the waistband - talk about thrify - 6 pairs of pjs for a total of $2. Since it was a sheet it had a finished edge, so I used it for the bottom of the pants so I didn't even have to hem anything - remember that trick!

What a fabulous idea! I made pj pants for our family for Christmas morning too, but mine ended up costing about $7/pair! I keep checking for marked down flannel but that seems to be a rarity. Now I have one more thing to search for on my trips to the thrift store, SHEETS!! Thanks for sharing that, Mandy!

Or at least I'm not accepting public repair jobs.
It was fun at first, but in this area no one has the money for serious guns. Over the last year I've fixed so many ancient, cheap-ass, piece-of-shit Savage and Stevens rifles I should charge Savage for being a warranty station. I'm only doing custom AR builds and 1911 pistols for now, to keep my FFL going. But I'm moving my house and shop to the Dallas area where the customers won't need to make weekly payments on a $50 repair bill, or try and haggle me down on prices.
Once down there we'll add the engraving business and cerakoting, but for now I'm getting my house ready to sell and getting the hell out of here.

Wow, I can see why people don't want to start a business these days. On top of all the shop construction and all, you have to jump through hoops for a bunch of gummint agencies, none of which want the exactly same info, use the same forms, will get the info from each other, or have heard of this thing call "e-mail" and insist on fax or snail mail.
In any case, we'll be open on May 2nd, and you can see the new website at hydegunsmithing.com.

We Made It
Sorry to be silent so long. The move was pretty nuts, and we're just getting to the point where we can move through the house without tripping over boxes.
The best news is... [drumroll]
Behold the future home of my gunsmithing business!
|Hyde Gunsmithing (future)
Right now, it needs a lot of work. The walls are horrible and there are no interior walls, but I'm getting a hell of a break on the rent for 2 months, and the full rent is damn cheap. I move in on December 1. I can't wait to get started.
The most important thing is that this shop is in downtown Booneville, which means it has foot traffic, and is easy to find. My place out here in the sticks is way too far off the beaten path.
More pictures when they become available.

My 9/11 Remembrance
To honor the heroes and victims of 9/11 I'm going to eat pork, drink alcohol, look at pictures of nude women who aren't my wife (and yet still treat my wife like my equal and partner), and make fun of Allah. I may, if I'm feeling especially patriotic, French-kiss a man. In short, I'm doing everything that Al-Qaida hates. Let's Roll...

Update to Freedom
We're about 37 days out from moving back to Arkansas, and not a minute too soon. One of our friends who watches our place found a black suitcase hidden under one of our trees next to the road. Turns out it was a portable meth lab kit. Fuckers.
The cops were called and their hazmat guy took it away, but we need to get home soon before the tweakers decide my living room is a great place to set up a factory.
God damn to hell whomever invented meth.

Killam Postdoctoral Research Fellowship
Quick Facts
The Killam Scholarship and Prize Programmes were established in memory of Izaak Walton Killam through the Will of his wife, Dorothy Johnston Killam, and through gifts made during her lifetime. Their primary purpose is to support advanced education and research at five Canadian universities and the Canada Council for the Arts.
The UBC Killam Postdoctoral Research Fellowships are provided annually from the Izaak Walton Killam Memorial Fund for Advanced Studies and are available for most fields of research. It was Mrs. Killam's desire that those selected to receive fellowships: "be likely to contribute to the advancement of learning or to win distinction in a profession. A Killam scholar should not be a one-sided person... Special distinction of intellect should be founded upon sound character."
The number of awards presently varies between three and five per year.
Likely in September 2014
In keeping with the original spirit of the Killam Endowments, the goal of the Killam Postdoctoral Research Fellowships program is to bring outstanding scholars from around the world to UBC in order to engage in innovative research that will enhance interdisciplinary collaborations and help establish them in leadership positions in the academic and wider community. As such, applicants must be able to contribute fresh intellectual insights to UBC.
Applicants must have completed all requirements of their PhD no more than 24 months prior to the anticipated fellowship start date. Completion of PhD requirements refers to the date that the applicant completed all the steps required for obtaining their degree. Although these requirements may vary by institution and degree type, they normally include thesis defense corrections and thesis deposition. It is not the convocation date.
The period of eligibility may be extended for applicants who have had their career interrupted or delayed for the purpose of childrearing, illness, or health-related family responsibilities. The interruption(s) or delay(s) must have occurred after the applicant completed all the requirements of their PhD. Note that the eligibility window will only be extended by the duration of the delay(s) or interruption(s), to a maximum of one year. Justification for the extension must be provided in the Special Circumstances attachment.
Applicants must not have pursued PhD-level studies at any campus of the University of British Columbia.
Applicants must not currently hold a tenure-track or continuing faculty position at a university or college. Applicants who currently hold a temporary, term, or non-tenure track faculty appointments are eligible to apply.
Furthermore, applicants:
- should have shown outstanding ability in research, in that they would be likely to contribute to the advancement of learning or to win distinction in their profession
- should not be one-sided, and have a sound character that complements their intellect
- may be citizens of any country; though there are no restrictions regarding nationality of applicants, successful candidates must be able to meet all Canadian immigration requirements
Preference will be given to applicants who have not already held a postdoctoral award or fellowship.
Fellowships are tenable only at UBC, and fellows are expected to make the UBC campus their base while holding the fellowship, apart from necessary research trips (no more than three months in each year of the fellowship).
Fellowships starting in the 2014/15 cycle may not begin earlier than 1 May 2014 and no later than 2 January 2015. Most fellowships commence between May and October.
Evaluation Criteria
Applicants are judged on the basis of their demonstrated excellence in scholarly work and independent research and their potential for making substantial contributions to their field of endeavour. The review committee will also consider the following:
- the qualities of the research project (e.g., clarity, feasibility, suitability of location, proposed supervisor, and facilities)
- the strength of the letters of reference
- the fit of the proposed research to the host department or unit
Preference will be given to applicants with no previous postdoctoral award. Fellowships will be distributed as evenly as possible among the various disciplines, though the primary criteria are academic excellence and research ability.
The applicant completes and submits an application form and arranges delivery of all required documents to the UBC department or unit to which the application is being made. Each UBC department or unit sets its own deadline for receipt of applications.
For a list of departments and units, please see:
For detailed information, please see below for the application guide and the application form.
Each UBC department or unit convenes a committee to review and rank all the Killam Postdoctoral Research Fellowship applications received. Each department or unit at the Vancouver campus may nominate one applicant (UBC Okanagan may nominate three applicants) to Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies for consideration in the university-wide competition. Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies must receive completed nomination packages, including all supporting documents, by 4:00 PM on Friday, 29 November 2013.
For detailed information, please see below for the application guide and the nomination form.
The UBC Killam Postdoctoral Fellowships and Prizes Committee presents the highest-ranked candidates to the UBC Killam Memorial Fellowships Committee and the Killam Trusts. Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies then makes offers to the top two candidates. Candidates deemed worthy of the fellowship, but ranked lower in the competition, are informed of their wait-listed status and may be presented with an offer if a higher-ranked candidate is either unable to accept the fellowship or is able to enter UBC with external funding. Unsuccessful nominees and their UBC nominators will also be notified of the status of their nomination.
All nominees will receive notice of the status of their nomination in March 2014.
Further Information
Please refer to the application guide for details and direct questions to firstname.lastname@example.com.

Ag Committee Approves Bipartisan Legislation to Reauthorize and Improve the Commodity Futures Trading Commission
The House Agriculture Committee approved H.R. 4413, the Customer Protection and End-User Relief Act, by voice vote.
Tamara Hinton (202) 225-0184
WASHINGTON – Today, Ranking Member Frank Lucas discussed the many threats American agriculture and rural communities face with members of the National Association of Farm Broadcasting at their annual Washington Watch event.
For the past year, the President and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi have taken a governing approach that suggests they believe public policy should be in spite of the American people, instead of on behalf of the American people. They have dismissed the legitimate concerns the American people have raised regarding jobs, the economy, reckless spending, a national energy tax, and government-run health care. The message from this administration has been we know what's best for you and we're going to push our agenda through Congress. They're not working to advance the interests of the American public; they're working to advance their own interests and those of their extreme special interest allies.

Action Tips: Host a Lights Out Day at Your School
Your school can make a difference any day by having a "Lights Out" Day. Here are some simple things you can do to save energy in your school and classroom.
Lights and Computers
- Turn-off lights and fans when no one's in the classroom, especially at recess and lunchtime.
- Turn-off computers and monitors when they aren't in use.
- Unplug computers and other electronics that aren't in use. This helps stop energy vampires aka when you leave your charger plugged in and nothing is actually charging, but it STILL uses electricity.
Heating and Cooling
- Keep the doors and windows closed in your classroom when the heating or air conditioning is running.
- Ensure there's nothing blocking air conditioning or heating vents in your classroom.
- Make sure the thermostat settings are not set too high or too low.
- Turn off the taps and water fountains when you are finished.
- Tell a teacher if there is a leaking tap in the toilets, classroom or playground.
- Talk to your principal and teachers to incorporate energy conservation into the curriculum with the goal of developing student awareness about current environmental issues.

Haruki Murakami (村上 春樹 Murakami Haruki , born January 12, 1949) is a best-selling Japanese writer.[1] His works of fiction and non-fiction have garnered critical acclaim and numerous awards, including the Franz Kafka Prize, the Frank O'Connor International Short Story Award and the Jerusalem Prize, among others. Murakami has also translated a number of English works to Japanese. His notable works include 1Q84, Kafka on the Shore, Norwegian Wood, and The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle.
Murakami's fiction, often criticized by Japan's literary establishment, is frequently surrealistic and nihilistic, marked by a Kafkaesque rendition of themes of loneliness and alienation.[2] He is considered an important figure in postmodern literature. Steven Poole of The Guardian praised Murakami as "among the world's greatest living novelists" for his works and achievements.[3]
Murakami was born in Japan during the post–World War II baby boom.[4] Although born in Kyoto, he spent his youth in Shukugawa (Nishinomiya), Ashiya and Kobe.[5][6] His father was the son of a Buddhist priest,[7] and his mother the daughter of an Osaka merchant.[8] Both taught Japanese literature.[9]
Since childhood, Murakami has been heavily influenced by Western culture, particularly Western music and literature. He grew up reading a wide range of works by American writers, such as Kurt Vonnegut, Richard Brautigan and Jack Kerouac. These Western influences distinguish Murakami from other Japanese writers.[10]
Murakami studied drama at Waseda University in Tokyo, where he met his wife, Yoko. His first job was at a record store, much like Toru Watanabe, the narrator of Norwegian Wood. Shortly before finishing his studies, Murakami opened a coffeehouse and jazz bar, the Peter Cat, in Kokubunji, Tokyo, which he ran with his wife[11] from 1974 to 1981[12]—again, not unlike the protagonist in his later novel South of the Border, West of the Sun.
Many of his novels have themes and titles that invoke classical music, such as the three books making up The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle: The Thieving Magpie (after Rossini's opera), Bird as Prophet (after a piano piece by Robert Schumann usually known in English as The Prophet Bird), and The Bird-Catcher (a character in Mozart's opera The Magic Flute). Some of his novels take their titles from songs: Dance, Dance, Dance (after The Dells' song, although it is widely thought it was titled after the Beach Boys tune), Norwegian Wood (after The Beatles' song) and South of the Border, West of the Sun (after the song "South of the Border").[13]
Murakami is a marathon runner and triathlete enthusiast, though he did not start running until he was 33 years old. On June 23, 1996, he completed his first ultramarathon, a 100-kilometer race around Lake Saroma in Hokkaido, Japan.[14] He discusses his relationship with running in his 2008 memoir What I Talk About When I Talk About Running.[15]
Murakami began writing fiction when he was 29.[16] "Before that", he said, "I didn't write anything. I was just one of those ordinary people. I was running a jazz club, and I didn't create anything at all."[17] He was inspired to write his first novel, Hear the Wind Sing (1979), while watching a baseball game.[18] In 1978, Murakami was in Jingu Stadium watching a game between the Yakult Swallows and the Hiroshima Carp when Dave Hilton, an American, came to bat. According to an oft-repeated story, in the instant that Hilton hit a double, Murakami suddenly realized that he could write a novel.[19] He went home and began writing that night. Murakami worked on Hear the Wind Sing for several months in very brief stretches after working days at the bar. He completed the novel and sent it to the only literary contest that would accept a work of that length, winning first prize.
Murakami's initial success with Hear the Wind Sing encouraged him to continue writing. A year later, he published a sequel, Pinball, 1973. In 1982, he published A Wild Sheep Chase, a critical success. Hear the Wind Sing, Pinball, 1973, and A Wild Sheep Chase form the Trilogy of the Rat (a sequel, Dance, Dance, Dance, was written later but is not considered part of the series), centered on the same unnamed narrator and his friend, "the Rat." The first two novels are unpublished in English translation outside of Japan, where an English edition, translated by Alfred Birnbaum with extensive notes, was published by Kodansha as part of a series intended for Japanese students of English. Murakami considers his first two novels to be "weak",[citation needed] and was not eager to have them translated into English.[20] A Wild Sheep Chase, he says, was "the first book where I could feel a kind of sensation, the joy of telling a story. When you read a good story, you just keep reading. When I write a good story, I just keep writing."[citation needed]
In 1985, Murakami wrote Hard-Boiled Wonderland and the End of the World, a dream-like fantasy that took the magical elements of his work to a new extreme. Murakami achieved a major breakthrough and national recognition in 1987 with the publication of Norwegian Wood, a nostalgic story of loss and sexuality. It sold millions of copies among Japanese youths, making Murakami a literary superstar in his native country. The book was printed in two separate volumes, a Japanese and English language edition sold together, so that the number of books sold actually doubled, creating the million-copy bestseller hype. One book had a green cover, the other one red.[3]
In 1986, Murakami left Japan, traveled throughout Europe, and settled in the United States. He was a writing fellow at Princeton University in Princeton, New Jersey, Tufts University in Medford, Massachusetts, and Harvard University in Cambridge, Massachusetts.[6][21] During this time he wrote South of the Border, West of the Sun and The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle.[6]
In 1995, he published The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle, a novel that fuses the realistic and fantastic, and contains elements of physical violence. It is also more socially conscious than his previous work, dealing in part with the difficult topic of war crimes in Manchukuo (Northeast China). The novel won the Yomiuri Prize, awarded by one of his harshest former critics, Kenzaburo Oe, winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1994.[22]
The processing of collective trauma soon became an important theme in Murakami's writing, which had previously been more personal in nature. After finishing The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle, Murakami returned to Japan in the aftermath of the Kobe earthquake and the Aum Shinrikyo gas attack. He came to terms with these events with his first work of non-fiction, Underground, and the short story collection after the quake. Underground consists largely of interviews of victims of the gas attacks in the Tokyo subway system.
Murakami himself mentions that he changed his position from one of "detachment" to one of "commitment" after staying in the USA in 1991.
English translations of many of his short stories written between 1983 and 1990 have been collected in The Elephant Vanishes. Murakami has also translated many of the works of F. Scott Fitzgerald, Raymond Carver, Truman Capote, John Irving, and Paul Theroux, among others, into Japanese.[6]
Murakami took an active role in translation of his work in English, encouraging "adaptations" of his texts to American reality rather than direct translation. Some of his works which appeared in German turned out to be translations from English rather than from Japanese (South of the Border, West of the Sun, 2000; The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle, 2000s), encouraged by Murakami himself. Both were later translated from Japanese.[23]
Sputnik Sweetheart was first published in 1999, followed by Kafka on the Shore in 2002, with the English translation following in 2005. Kafka on the Shore won the World Fantasy Award for Novels in 2006.[24] The English version of his novel After Dark was released in May 2007. It was chosen by the New York Times as a "notable book of the year". In late 2005, Murakami published a collection of short stories titled Tōkyō Kitanshū, or 東京奇譚集, which translates loosely as "Mysteries of Tokyo." A collection of the English versions of twenty-four short stories, titled Blind Willow, Sleeping Woman, was published in August 2006. This collection includes both older works from the 1980s as well as some of Murakami's more recent short stories, including all five that appear in Tōkyō Kitanshū.
In 2002, Murakami published the anthology Birthday Stories, which collects short stories on the theme of birthdays. The collection includes work by Russell Banks, Ethan Canin, Raymond Carver, David Foster Wallace, Denis Johnson, Claire Keegan, Andrea Lee, Daniel Lyons, Lynda Sexson, Paul Theroux, and William Trevor, as well as a story by Murakami himself. What I Talk About When I Talk About Running, containing tales about his experience as a marathon runner and a triathlete, was published in Japan in 2007,[25] with English translations released in the U.K. and the U.S. in 2008. The title is a play on that of Raymond Carver's short story collection, What We Talk About When We Talk About Love.[26]
Shinchosha Publishing published Murakami's novel 1Q84 in Japan on May 29, 2009. 1Q84 is pronounced as 'ichi kyū hachi yon', the same as 1984, as 9 is also pronounced as 'kyū' in Japanese.[27] The book was longlisted for the Man Asian Literary Prize in 2011. However, after the anti-Japanese demonstrations, in China, in 2012, Murakami's books were removed from sale there, along with those of other Japanese authors.[28][29] Murakami criticized the China-Japan political territorial dispute, characterizing the overwrought nationalistic response as "cheap liquor" which politicians were giving to the public.[30] In February 2013, he announced the publication of his first novel in three years, set for April 2013; aside from the date of release, the announcement was intentionally vague.[31]
1982 Noma Literary Prize for A Wild Sheep Chase.
1985 Tanizaki Prize for Hard-Boiled Wonderland and the End of the World.
1995 Yomiuri Prize for The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle.
2006 World Fantasy Award for Kafka on the Shore.
In 2006, Murakami became the sixth recipient of the Franz Kafka Prize.[32]
In September 2007, he received an honorary doctorate from the University of Liège,[33] as well as one from Princeton University in June 2008.[34]
Murakami was awarded the 2007 Kiriyama Prize for Fiction for his collection of short stories Blind Willow, Sleeping Woman, but according to the Kiriyama Official Website, Murakami "declined to accept the award for reasons of personal principle".[35]
In January 2009 Murakami received the Jerusalem Prize, a biennial literary award given to writers whose work deals with themes of human freedom, society, politics, and government. There were protests in Japan and elsewhere against his attending the February award ceremony in Israel, including threats to boycott his work as a response against Israel's recent bombing of Gaza. Murakami chose to attend the ceremony, but gave a speech to the gathered Israeli dignitaries harshly criticizing Israeli policies.[36] Murakami said, "Each of us possesses a tangible living soul. The system has no such thing. We must not allow the system to exploit us."[37]
In 2011, Murakami donated his €80,000 winnings from the International Catalunya Prize (from the Generalitat of Catalunya) to the victims of the 11 March earthquake and tsunami, and to those affected by the Fukushima nuclear disaster. Accepting the award, he said in his speech that the situation at the Fukushima plant was "the second major nuclear disaster that the Japanese people have experienced... however, this time it was not a bomb being dropped upon us, but a mistake committed by our very own hands." According to Murakami, the Japanese people should have rejected nuclear power after having "learned through the sacrifice of the hibakusha just how badly radiation leaves scars on the world and human wellbeing".[38]
In recent years, Haruki Murakami has often been mentioned as a possible recipient of the Nobel Prize in Literature.[39] Nonetheless, all nomination records for a prize are sealed for 50 years from the awarding of the prize so it is pure speculation.[40] When asked about the possibility of being awarded the Nobel Prize, Murakami responded with a laugh saying "No, I don't want prizes. That means you're finished."[39]
Murakami's first novel Hear the Wind Sing (Kaze no uta wo kike) was adapted by Japanese director Kazuki Ōmori. The film was released in 1981 and distributed by Art Theatre Guild.[41] Naoto Yamakawa directed two short films Attack on the Bakery (released in 1982) and A Girl, She is 100 Percent (released in 1983), based on Murakami's short stories "The Second Bakery Attack" and "On Seeing the 100% Perfect Girl One Beautiful April Morning" respectively.[42] Japanese director Jun Ichikawa adapted Murakami's short story "Tony Takitani" into a 75-minute feature.[43] The film played at various film festivals and was released in New York and Los Angeles on July 29, 2005. The original short story, translated into English by Jay Rubin, is available in the April 15, 2002 issue of The New Yorker, as a stand-alone book published by Cloverfield Press, and part of Blind Willow, Sleeping Woman by Knopf. In 1998, the German film Der Eisbaer (Polar Bear), written and directed by Granz Henman, used elements of Murakami's short story "The Second Bakery Attack" in three intersecting story lines. "The Second Bakery Attack" was also adapted as short film in 2010,[44] directed by Carlos Cuaron, starring Kirsten Dunst.
Murakami's work was also adapted for the stage in a 2003 play entitled The Elephant Vanishes, co-produced by Britain's Complicite company and Japan's Setagaya Public Theatre. The production, directed by Simon McBurney, adapted three of Murakami's short stories and received acclaim for its unique blending of multimedia (video, music, and innovative sound design) with actor-driven physical theater (mime, dance, and even acrobatic wire work).[45] On tour, the play was performed in Japanese, with supertitle translations for European and American audiences.
Two stories from Murakami's book after the quake—"Honey Pie" and "Superfrog Saves Tokyo"—have been adapted for the stage and directed by Frank Galati. Entitled after the quake, the play was first performed at the Steppenwolf Theatre Company in association with La Jolla Playhouse, and opened on October 12, 2007, at Berkeley Repertory Theatre.[46] In 2008, Galati also adapted and directed a theatrical version of Kafka on the Shore, which first ran at Chicago's Steppenwolf Theatre Company from September to November.[47]
On Max Richter's 2006 album Songs from Before, Robert Wyatt reads passages from Murakami's novels. In 2007, Robert Logevall adapted "All God's Children Can Dance" into a film, with a soundtrack composed by American jam band Sound Tribe Sector 9. In 2008, Tom Flint adapted "On Seeing the 100% Perfect Girl One Beautiful April Morning" into a short film. The film was screened at the 2008 CON-CAN Movie Festival. The film was viewed, voted, and commented upon as part of the audience award for the movie festival.[48]
It was announced in July 2008 that French-Vietnamese director Tran Anh Hung would direct an adaptation of Murakami's novel, Norwegian Wood.[49] The film was released in Japan on December 11, 2010.[50]
In 2010, Stephen Earnhart adapted The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle into a 2-hour multimedia stage presentation. The show opened January 12, 2010, as part of the Public Theater's "Under the Radar" festival at the Ohio Theater in New York City,[51] presented in association with The Asia Society and the Baryshnikov Arts Center. The show had its world premiere at the Edinburgh International Festival on August 21, 2011.[52] The presentation incorporates live actors, video projection, traditional Japanese puppetry, and immersive soundscapes to render the surreal landscape of the original work.
Each short story in Murakami's after the quake collection was adapted into a six-song EP entitled .DC: JPN (after the quake 2011) in March 2011 following the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami to help benefit the relief efforts by musician Dre Carlan.[53]
As a writer Haruki Murakami was influenced by Western literalists, which distinguished him from his fellow Japanese counterparts. Not only exclusive to Western influence, Murakami consistently aimed to provide a sense of Japanese heritage throughout his books. Most of his works are written in the first person prose to provide the reader an understanding of what the main protagonist encounters. He states that because the "family" plays a significant role throughout traditional Japanese literature, by portraying the main character as an independent individual he becomes a man who values freedom and solitude over intimacy. Also notable is Murakami's style of humor in his writing. Such scenarios are evident in the 2000 collection of short stories, After The Quake. In Superfrog Saves Tokyo, one story from the collection, the main protagonist is confronted with a 6 foot tall frog that talks about the destruction of Tokyo over a cup of tea. While retaining a serious tone Murakami feels the reader should be entertained once the seriousness of a subject has been addressed. Another notable feature of Murakami's stories is the comments that come from the main characters as to how strange the story presents itself. Murakami explains that his characters experience what he experiences as he writes, which could be compared to a movie set where the walls and props are all fake.
After receiving the Gunzo Award for his 1979 literary work Hear the Wind Sing, Murakami did not aspire to meet other writers. Aside from Princeton's Marry Morris in which he briefly mentions in his memoir What I Talk About When I Talk About Running, alongside Joyce Carol Oates and Toni Morrison, Murakami was never a part of a community of writers, his reason being that he was a loner and was never fond of groups, schools, and literary circles. When working on a book, Murakami states that he relies on his wife and is always his first reader. While he never acquainted himself with many writers, Murakami enjoyed the works of Ryu Murakami and Banana Yoshimoto.
Haruki Murakami is a fan of crime novels. During his high school days while living in Kobe, he would buy paperbacks from second hand book stores and learned to read English. The first book that he read in English was The Name is Archer, written by Ross Macdonald in 1955. Other writers he was interested in included Leo Tolstoy and Fyodor Dostoyevsky.
Murakami also had a passion for listening to music. Through its influence by listening to melodies and the like it was considered helpful while writing. When he was around the age of 14 he began to develop an interest for Jazz. He would later open the Peter Cat which was a coffeehouse and jazz bar alongside his wife in 1984. To him, like writing, music, particularly Jazz was a mental journey. Later aspired to be a musician but could not play instruments well and focused on writing.
This is an incomplete bibliography as not all works published by Murakami in Japanese have been translated into English.[54]

Recent reviews:
January 18, 2014 - Beautifully made, whimsical, and exquisitely detailed. I love the fact that it is handmade and fairly purchased and supports local artisans, a win-win situation. My family adores gifts from this site.
January 2, 2014 - great gift -- a worrier on my list was the ideal receiver.
December 31, 2013 - Great stocking fillers for my dog rescue loving kids.. They loved them!
August 8, 2013 - Love this little dog. I carry it around with me everywhere I go. And I like that it helped animals
April 1, 2013 - I ordered 3 of these. They aren't quite what I expected (I never can figure out sizes even though it's given). The "dog" doesn't resemble a dog at all :( However, the story tucked into the bag/doll made it a good buy. Both my daughters loved them and I carry mine, rather than put it under my pillow. Cute "little something" to get anyone who knows this site and/or loves dog or folklore!
Artisan: Doña Jerónima Juárez
Doña Jerónima Juárez was born in the small village of San Pedro Las Huertas, near Antigua, Guatemala. She stopped attending school after the third grade in order to supplement her family's income by helping her mother sell vegetables in the marketplace.
Doña Jerónima's mother taught her to make worry dolls, a traditional craft in Guatemala. She recalls, "I was trying for 2 months to make the worry dolls; I made one but was not good enough then I undid the dolls and tried again and again and again lots of times."
Her perseverance paid off. Eleven years ago, she was able to found a small workshop, "Artesanias Multicolor," in the Colonial City of La Antigua Guatemala. She is able to employ fifteen artisans in the production of traditional and not-so-traditional handicrafts, including the "Worry Cats," a design she developed exclusively for the Greater Good Network.
With their livelihood no longer tied solely to the agricultural harvest, Doña Jerónima, her mother, and her three daughters continue to turn their traditional crafting skills towards the creation of new and unique designs.
