About meHi, I've always loved reading and also love books - the covers, the smell of a new book, and the anticipation of the stories they contain. I'm addicted to this website and the more I use it the more I realise it does. As most of the books I read are from the library it's nice to have a record of what I've read on here - having the book covers is brilliant. My other addiction is www.bookclubforum.co.uk - it's a really friendly forum.
About my libraryI try to be diverse in what I read - I can very easily get into my comfort zone and stick with one writer but I've found that some of the best novels I've read have been by writers that I'm not so familiar with. Studying literature meant having a set reading list which meant that I was introduced to writers from different centuries and from different countries and cultures. This has been instrumental in changing my reading habits and I've tried to hang on to that since. In particular through studying literature I have developed a fondness for 19th century literature.

Hi again Judy. I too love Jonathan Coe. I think I have read all of his novels. My favourite is probably "The House Of Sleep", but I loved "The Rotters Club" too. How about you?

Hello Judy. I was glad to see you enjoyed Jonathan Coe's "The rain Before It Falls" as much as I did!

Hi JudyB. Lovely to get my first libarything comment. Thank you! I managed to finish 'The Mysteries of Glass' on Friday although it involved a guilty few minutes in the car reading the last two pages before I collected my daughters! It was a truly beautiful novel and I had the feeling afterwards of leaving a parallel world and feeling a little homesick. The setting and the characters kept popping into my head. I hope you enjoy it when you manage to read it.

Hi Judy
I've just discovered librarything and noticed that you had added Sue Gee's The Mysteries of Glass. I have just started reading it during my precious 25 minute train trip to work (at home I am kept busy with two wee girls)and think it is one of the most beautifully written novels I have read for ages.

Hi Judy
comparing parts of 'Pippa Lee' to 'This Book Will Save Your Life' is exactly what I thought too! Interesting the next reviewer sheds some light on the writer.

lol! Sorry - I got her the 'Infinite Wisdom of Harriet Rose' - she started it last night. Recently she read 2 Meg Cabots 'size 12 isn't fat' or some such title which I picked out of the bargain bucket at Sainsburys and she really enjoyed them. The blurb on Harriet Rose looked like something she might read so fingers crossed!

Hi JudyB,
I just linked to your shelf after reading your review of "Vanishing acts of Esme Lennox".
I just read the book and thoroughly enjoyed the read. I found it a well written story that was hard
to put down. I am fairly new here and still adding to my library. I just sent a friend invite to you as we have many similar book interests.

Thanks for your note. I did read Dombey and son and my comment was:
4281 Dombey and Son, by Charles Dickens (read 2 Mar 2007) This appeared in 1848 and is vintage Dickens, 848 pages, and one must admit at times it is not too interesting, though the ending chapters held my interest, albeit predictable and long drawn out, with every loose end tied up in full--such a contrast to much of today's fiction. Dombey is a rich imperious businessman, who expects his son Paul to carry on the firm and has no regard for his daughter Florence--the typical so good butter wouldn't melt in her mouth heroine of the novel. Paul dies and Dombey marries Edith, and they do not get along, though Edith loves Florence. There are the usual characters with weird idiosyncrasies such as Captain Gills, Captain Cuttle, Mr. Toots, et al. I will not say the book was not worth reading though it is overly long. I have now read all the Dickens novels except Little Dorrit (1857), Our Mutual Friend (1865), and the unfinished Edwin Drood. I will probably read at least the first two, if I live long enough.
I will read Little Dorrit next, but when that will be remains to be seen.

I've worked in libraries for about 6 years now, academic and specialist. I do really enjoy it, especially the feeling that you are making information accessible to people. What kind of library do you work in? Is it a public library? I've never worked in one but I use my local library all the time!

I just read yr Review comments of the above & would advise you to stick with it! I found the Ewing stories probably the least engaging of the book.
Myself I'm at the opposite end of the book, just starting the last Ewing chapter.

Hi Judy! Thanks for writing. I highly recommend Markus Zusak's novel I Am the Messenger. It was published as The Messenger in Australia, so it may be available under that title in the UK. It's the story of Ed Kennedy, a 19-year-old cab driver who averts a bank robbery. Soon after, he starts receiving mysterious instructions written on playing cards. The cards give him opportunities to meet and help others. As he does so, he becomes more sure of himself. It's a beautiful exploration of ethics, responsibility, and how we gain meaning by helping others. His novel Getting the Girl is also good, for it's about how a teenage boy discovers girls as individuals with emotions and feelings. But Markus admits that as it's one of his earlier books, it's not quite on a par with The Messenger and the Book Thief. Happy reading! Mary

Hi Judy! I am so glad you enjoyed The Book Thief. I agree that it shares common threads with Thousand Splendid Suns, such as how war tears countries and families apart. One reason I love The Book Thief so much is the originality that you noted. I recently met Markus Zusak at a library conference and he's just lovely--very modest and affable. Hapy Reading! Mary

Dear Judy,
As promised, I'm reporting back after reading The Earth. Although it's linked to the Rougon-Macquart family through Jean Macquart's presence (I reckon he must be the uncle of Etienne from Germinal), it's mostly about a family of peasant farmers, and a selfish, greedy lot they are too. It's a tough read in the sense that their lives are often mean and squalid, but a worthwhile one. There is some political talk in the local bar and also references to the forthcoming Franco-Prussian War, foreshadowing, I suppose, the events in The Downfall, which would be the next one I have in the series.
Thanks for motivating me to go back to these books. Are you still reading Zola or have you moved on to something else?
posted by Clockpelter at 6:23 am (EST) on Jul 1, 2007
Hi Judy, thanks for your comment about a Thousand Splendid Suns! I agree that we are so lucky to live in countries that are not wracked by war, and Hosseini's books help me not to take our comfort for granted. Take care and please feel free to chat anytime. Regards, Mary

Welcome to Books Compared. I'm another Dickens fan - I loved Bleak House, and your review of Dombey & Son persuades me this is another one I must read. Hope you'll find time between jobs and teenagers to contribute a comparison review - we could use a few more short and sweet ones!

Looking through them, I 've actually read a couple more than I thought, so the next one will be The Earth. I've still got a few books ahead of it on the TBR pile, but I'll get back to you to let you know how I get on.
At the minute I'm about 600 pages into Don Quixote (with a good 300 left), and it's fairly slow going, although I'm determined not to abandon it, as it's a pleasant enough read.

Hi Judy,
I came into the Rougon Macquart series through Germinal, which with Nana, remains one of my favourites. After that I read the first eight or nine more or less in order. I really enjoyed the early ones - I like the broad canvas peopled with characters from all levels of society. I don't think any one else really has the same 'social' sweep. I like Trollope too, for the same feeling that you are entering into a world of interconnected characters, where you come across old friends and enemies, but Trollope's characters are mostly from a certain class. The RM novels were also, for me, a way into French 19th century history (although I still get mixed up with the different empires and republics).
Ran out of steam a little with L'assomoir which I found irredeemably depressing, but maybe that was the point?
A couple of years ago, I began, but didn't finish, The Dream. That's it so far, but thanks to your message, I might just promote one of the unread novels (I don't have the whole series) to nearer the top of my TBR pile - any particular recommendation?. I'll have to reacquaint myselves with the characters though; I seem to think I have the family tree in one of the earlier novels, so I'll start with that.

Hi Judy. Yes I am following R&J, I started to read Semi-detached by Griff Rhys Jones but didn't find it that interesting! I still waiting for the others from the library though! Have you read any yet?
posted by saucyhp at 5:41 am (EST) on Mar 5, 2007
the Rougon-Macquart, yes they were delivered in order and I read them in order, apart from Germinal which I studied at university. Favourites? - I think it's easier to tell you the ones I didn't like so much, La fortune des Rougon, La Curée... They are very diverse in fact and all have their different moods and merits.

Hi Judy, yes we do, and also the Alexander McCall Smith, Jean Rhys, I Capture the Castle, etc. Isn't it interesting to see what books we have in common with others! I bought all the Zolas about 20 years ago, used to get one a month and read them right away.

many thanks for your comment, judy. yes, you're definitely right about narayan and mccall-smith and their respect for life. i love this in paul auster's "the brooklyn follies" which also gave me the warm fuzzies, and also in some of steinbeck e.g. "cannery row", "sweet thursday"
the reviews? a useful reading record. most of them i usually post up on my blog too. i also review for a malaysian newspaper and am trying to get better at it (guardian or new york times standard!)

Hi Judy. I will have to think about this, as it took me a bit of time and fiddling.
1) Download the pic you want to use for the link (I did mine avatar size via resizing on Photobicket)into sig box
2) copy librarything link.
3) insert your piccie into top sig box and highlight. While highlighter hit the add link button (think it looks like a ball and chain!!!)
4) preview, and add script if you want it, (e.g Judy's list)
5) Save, and it should come up. Any probs get back to me. Should really do one for BCF on here. Might try and sort that now.
Hope it works, if not, get back and I'll go through what I did by myself and get back to you.

Hi Judy - you asked about the watch facility on my profile. If you go tosomeone's profile and would like to list them on your "watch" list (bascially, it's a "buddies" system), there's a bit up at the top-right-hand corner of their profile that has an add sign & says "add to you watch list". If you click on it, it will add that person to your watch list for you. If at some point in the future you decide to remove them, you go to the same place where it will now have a minus sign & says "remove from your watch list".
Hope that's of some help. :)

I am reading the Gulag Archipelago right now and it's a huge set to get through but I am going to read The Earth this year for sure. Hopefully soon after I read the Gulag. I may take a break after Volume 1 and read it before I go to Volume 2 and 3 of the Gulag. The Earth is going to be great, I just know it :) Let me know when you finish it.

Hi there! It's so nice to meet another Zola fan :) I haven't read all of the books in the Rougon-Macquart series yet either. I have read some of them. I couldn't find several of them but I have just discovered that our public library has most of them so I guess I will borrow them. I do wish I could own them because they are so good and I know I will want to read them over and over. Every time I read one I swear that the next one I read can't be as good as this one but then when I read the next one I feel the same way about it! LOL
Please let me know when you read another Zola, I would love to read your review :)
Oh, welcome to Library Thing too!

You Heard Me, the football edition
I didn't get it.
Many years ago, my good friend Andy Wichern and I were sitting in a sold-out Las Vegas showroom. We were watching the late Danny Gans, the then-reigning Las Vegas Entertainer of the Year, doing another impression. Everyone, and I mean everyone, was howling with laughter.
Except us.
We just stared at each other, blankly. People are knee-slapping, spilling drinks all over themselves, literally falling onto the ground holding their sides -- what the kids call "rotflmao" -- and Andy and I are looking confused at each other. "It's them, right? It's not us. It's them."
Not to write ill of the deceased because the man was, by all accounts, a wonderful family man, but I hated every minute of his act. So did Andy. We were the only two.
But why hate it? I mean, it wasn't funny, but so what? Lots of stuff isn't funny. But there were three things I truly hated about it.
First, it wasn't funny in a painful way. He was an impressionist and this was a typical joke: "Any Garth Brooks fans here?" (Applause and yells.) "Yeah, Garth Brooks is one of the biggest stars in the world. I mean, he is one of the [mimes being fat] biggest stars in the world." (Starts singing in a Garth Brooks voice to the tune of "Friends in Low Places") "I've got fat in all the wrong places."
And people are howling at this. Actual convulsions. That was the second thing that drove me nuts. How much everyone loved this safe, middle-of-the-road, fairly obvious humor.
Look, I'm all for family entertainment. The current Mrs. Roto has a 5-year-old and I'm much more aware these days of what is and is not appropriate, and of the things we can all enjoy together. So I get it.
This wasn't family entertainment -- it was safe entertainment, and that's an important distinction. Any of the "Toy Story" films are family entertainment, but they aren't safe.
But the biggest thing that drove me nuts -- I mean, absolutely bat-guano crazy -- was that he would start every impression like this: "Hey everybody, it's me, Cliff Clavin. You know, I'm just a mailman hanging out at this bar in Boston. Yeah, did you know " and then he'd launch into some lame Clavin-type fact.
Wait, what?!? Seriously. What?!??
Why are you introducing an impression? The point of an impression is that you recognize the voice and mannerisms of a famous person. If it's a good impression, you don't need to say who it is. We know who it is; that's the joke. I'm getting all fired up just thinking about it again. Someone bring me a brick and the number of a good lawyer.
It was safe, it was wimpy, it showed a complete lack of confidence in both his own ability to accurately do the impression and his audience to get it.
It's everything I hate about show business, and I'm in the minority. Because they lapped it up. Laughter and applause out the wazoo. In fact, there was additional laughter and applause outside, waiting to get into the wazoo. That's how beloved he was.
I respond to strong personalities. It's why I'm a huge Howard Stern fan. Love the music of Eminem. Think Tucker Max's writing is hilarious. The only thing I watch religiously besides sports is "The Daily Show." And over the course of my career, I have tried to emulate those I admire in my own way.
I want to be bold, outspoken, brutally honest. I don't always accomplish it. Partially because some of what I want to write or say isn't appropriate for ESPN audiences, at least in the mind of the people whose job it is to determine such things. And partially because that's not my job; Most of the time, my job requires me to do reasoned analysis of player's performance in order to come up with safe predictions, by which I mean that they have a relatively high probability of actually happening.
This is not one of those times.
This is my shoot-from-the-hip column, my chance to show some fantasy cajones, to step up to the plate swinging for the fences, to be the anti-Gans.
This is my bold predictions piece. These are things that are not reasonable to expect. There is some reasoned thought behind them, but frankly, not a lot. If there were a lot of factual basis and probability behind them, of course, they wouldn't be bold.
As I wrote in this year's baseball version of "You Heard Me," this is me, out on a limb, alone on an island, holding tight to my ill-fated belief that this is the year Felix Jones finally stays healthy and breaks out. These are gut calls wrapped in faith and hope, sprinkled with statistical backing and baked in the Oven of Dreams, right next to my TMR-gets-more-hair apple tart.
For the new kids in school, the idea of this column is that you and I had a conversation like this:
TMR: I say Jacoby Jones finishes the year as a top-30 fantasy wide receiver.
You: What?!?
TMR: You heard me!
Jacoby Jones is currently going 54th among wide receivers in ESPN standard leagues, but he scored six times last year and, just like I wrote in this year's "100 Facts" column, he averaged 16.2 yards per catch (more than teammate Andre Johnson). So yeah, I want to break me off a piece of some Jacoby Jones.
Here's my suggestion on how to get use out of this column, other than printing it out and using it to make yourself feel better about your own crappy predictions at the end of the season: Understand that just because something is unlikely to happen doesn't mean it can't. It was unlikely that Jamaal Charles would rush for almost 1,000 yards in the final eight games of 2009. The unlikely part wasn't the skills -- I and many others had been yelling at Kansas City to free Jamaal and kick Larry Johnson to the curb -- but rather that Charles would get 161 rushing attempts and be the focal point of an offense that had spent a lot to acquire Matt Cassel in the offseason. So I'm looking for things that are considered unlikely to happen but still could.
The point is not so much to nail impossible predictions but rather to illuminate some players I have strong feelings about, one way or the other. For example, last year in this column I predicted a strong year for Ryan Grant, saying he would go for better than 1,500 total yards and 10 touchdowns. Technically, I was wrong. Grant did have 11 touchdowns but finished with 1,450 total yards, falling 50 yards short.
But considering his average draft position last year was in the mid 30s and he finished tied for seventh among fantasy running backs, that's pretty good value. If you drafted him based on this article last year, I doubt you are upset that I overestimated by 50 yards.
Of course, I also predicted that Willie Parker, Mewelde Moore and Heath Miller would all have more fantasy points than Rashard Mendenhall. Yeesh.
They're not all winners, kids. This is high-risk, high-reward territory we're about to enter. I've done a bold statement for every team in the NFL with a quick line of reasoning and I've thrown in some random ones for fun. Every one of these things I'm about to list is unlikely to happen, but certainly could.
Is that enough posterior-covering caveats yet? Doesn't matter. I'm going for it. If I've said it once, I've said it a million times. Go big or go home. No guts, no glory. No clichés, no word count. You can call it bold, you can call it outrageous, you can not call it anything at all because talking out loud to a column is weird.
But no matter how you slice it, this is what I think will happen this year.
Arizona Cardinals: Larry Fitzgerald finishes outside the top 10 of fantasy wide receivers and, in fact, isn't a top-20 guy for as long as Matt Leinart is the quarterback. My thinking: No Anquan Boldin and the lack of Leinart arm strength means more running; plus, there are injury concerns from preseason. And the scores last year masked a three-year low in yards per catch for Fitzy.
Atlanta Falcons: Matt Ryan throws for 18 touchdowns or less. My thinking: Run-first team with a quarterback who has shown issues with staying healthy and decision-making. A healthy Michael Turner, whom I love this year, hurts Ryan's scoring as well.
Baltimore Ravens: Joe Flacco eclipses 4,000 yards passing and 28 touchdowns, producing close to what Philip Rivers did last year. You heard me. My thinking: a 63 percent completion percentage last season, he had 70 more passing attempts, 600-plus more yards and seven more touchdown passes from his rookie year to Year 2, and the Ravens didn't add Anquan Boldin and Donte' Stallworth so they could throw less.
Buffalo Bills: Shawn Nelson, currently going 32nd among tight ends, is a top-15 fantasy tight end. My thinking: I've already been on record with Fred Jackson over C.J. Spiller, so I can't use that one again. Someone has to catch the ball in Buffalo. Nelson is a nice, big red zone target who needs to stay healthy to succeed, but don't we all?
Carolina Panthers: For only the second time in his career, Steve Smith has double-digit touchdowns and more than 1,200 yards. My thinking: He seemed to have a strong connection with Matt Moore at the end of last year, teams will be way too concerned with stopping the Panthers' rushing attack, and the Original Steve Smith appears to be extra motivated this year.
Chicago Bears: Under Mike Martz, Jay Cutler has a worse statistical season than he did last year. My thinking: Last year, Cutler threw the ball 555 times, ranking fourth in the NFL. How much more can he really throw it? He's known for poor decision-making, and in a Martz offense, the quarterback gets killed under the pressure, leading to more interceptions for Cutler.
Logan Morrison of the Marlins will walk out for an at-bat with the Fantasy Focus theme song as his music. He has promised, if he gets 10,000 followers on Twitter, he will do this. Come on, fantasy friends! Do it! Follow @LoMoMarlins, and while you are at it, follow @MatthewBerryTMR. It'll bring you good fantasy karma and you'll win your league this year. Promise. You heard me!
Cincinnati Bengals: Under 1,000 yards and the "under" on 6½ touchdowns for Chad Ochocinco. My thinking: run-first offense that now has more mouths to feed in the passing game, combined with a poor finish yardage-wise for Chad and a busy non-football offseason.
Cleveland Browns: The over on 1,000 yards and six scores for Mohamed Massaquoi. My thinking: Whatever Jake Delhomme is, it's an upgrade over what they had last year. Also see Nelson, Shawn.
Dallas Cowboys: Tony Romo throws for more than 4,500 yards and 37 touchdowns, which would be the best statistical year of his career. You heard me. My thinking: He's done both numbers before but not in the same season. Now he has the most weapons he's ever had and is firmly entrenched in an offense that could easily be this year's Saints.
Denver Broncos: Over on 1,000 yards for Jabar Gaffney. My thinking: Honestly, I don't have any strong feelings for any Denver player, but Gaffney, a guy who knows this offense very well, could find success like he did over the final two weeks of 2009.
Detroit Lions: Nate Burleson gets to nine touchdowns for the third time in his career. My thinking: Predictions on Calvin Johnson or Jahvid Best were too easy. Nate reunited with Scott Linehan, an improved Stafford throwing to him and defenses keying on Megatron all lead to fantasy goodness.
Green Bay Packers: Greg Jennings finishes the year as a top-5 fantasy wide receiver. My thinking: He finished 20th last year, but as the lead receiver on one of the most fantasy-friendly offenses in football, there's no way he scores just four touchdowns again. And if he gets back to the 9-12 range he showed the previous two years, watch out.
Houston Texans: Arian Foster gets 1,300 total yards and 10 scores. My thinking: I'm angry that Ben Tate got hurt because I would have done this same prediction regardless; go read my Love/Hate if you don't believe me. Anyway, great offense and, with no confidence in Slaton, they'll commit to Foster full-time.
A study will be published proving that the moral decay of America's children can be directly tied to the lack of cartoons in which humans and talking animals combine to solve crimes. You heard me.
Indianapolis Colts: Pierre Garcon has a better fantasy year than Reggie Wayne. My thinking: Go read my 100 facts column. And rewatch the Super Bowl from last year. Unless you're a Colts fan, in which case I'd never ask you to do that to yourself.
Jacksonville Jaguars: Mike Sims-Walker, currently being drafted as the No. 18 wideout, finishes outside the top 35 of fantasy wide receivers. My thinking: No longer a surprise for defensive coordinators, he's a bit injury prone and was very inconsistent last season.
Kansas City Chiefs: A career year (at least 1,100 yards and eight touchdowns) for Dwayne Bowe. My thinking: another year in the offense for Cassel, a very motivated and something-to-prove Bowe after a tumultuous offseason, and defenses focusing on stopping the run game.
Miami Dolphins: Brandon Marshall is not a top-10 fantasy receiver. My thinking: A run-first team, a new quarterback and system, an injury history and a touch of the crazies make me think this won't be a smooth season for Marshall.
Minnesota Vikings: Bernard Berrian is the leading fantasy receiver. My thinking: Harvin's migraines and Rice's hip slow them down enough for a finally healthy Berrian to connect with He Who Shall Not Be Named.
New England Patriots: Wes Welker plays all 16 games, catches more than 110 passes for more than 1,200 yards. My thinking: You bet against this guy, you lose.
The Dallas Cowboys, with Kim Khardashian standing by Miles Austin on the podium, win the Super Bowl.
New Orleans Saints: Pierre Thomas is a top-10 fantasy running back this year. My thinking: If I keep writing it, it will eventually come true. Also, the Saints were tied for third in rushing touchdowns, Mike Bell is gone and I'm not worried about that many vultures by P.J. Hill or Ladell Betts.
New York Giants: Ahmad Bradshaw has a better fantasy year than the guy going seven rounds ahead of him, Brandon Jacobs. My thinking: I can actually see. Bradshaw is the better player and it's not close.
New York Jets: Mark Sanchez doubles his touchdown passes from last year, to 24. My thinking: a year of experience under his belt, the addition of Santonio Holmes and Braylon Edwards for a whole season, defense keying in on stopping the run.
Oakland Raiders: Michael Bush has more than 1,300 total yards and eight touchdowns. My thinking: He has the talent and Oakland can run the ball. Justin Fargas is gone, Darren McFadden can't stay healthy and Jason Campbell will make this a respectable offense.
I continue my streak of never making a "taking my talents to South Beach" joke. And the Heat don't win the NBA title. You heard me.
Philadelphia Eagles: Jeremy Maclin has a better fantasy season than DeSean Jackson, copyright Nate Ravitz. My thinking: Click on the podcast link to the right.
Pittsburgh Steelers: After he gets back from suspension, Ben Roethlisberger is still not a top-12 fantasy quarterback. My thinking: The loss of Willie Colon means Ben runs for his life even more, and a healthier Steelers defense and the emergence of Mendenhall means more balanced games and fewer shootouts.
St. Louis Rams: 1,000 yards for Laurent Robinson. My thinking: See Massaquoi, Mohamed
San Diego Chargers: 1,200 yards for Malcolm Floyd. You heard me. My thinking: I believe Vincent Jackson is telling the truth.
San Francisco 49ers: Frank Gore finishes the year as a top-3 fantasy running back. My thinking: Read Love/Hate.
Seattle Seahawks: Justin Forsett is a top-15 fantasy running back. My thinking: I know there's been a Julius Jones resurgence and Leon Washington is around, but I feel talent wins out ultimately, and he's the best guy they have.
Jeffrey Ross, the roast master, becomes a judge on "American Idol" and makes that show watchable again.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers: 1,000 yards for Mike Williams. My thinking: See Robinson, Laurent.
Tennessee Titans: Chris Johnson gets 2,500 total yards. My thinking: That's what Chris told Adam Schefter. And if he believes it, why shouldn't I?
Washington Redskins: Clinton Portis is a top-20 fantasy running back this year. My thinking: Remember when you listened to Nate and I talking about Maclin on the podcast? Keep listening.
And as long as we're talking long shots, I say I get 100 percent of these right. You heard me.

Temple has rock-solid presence
at the Geological Society of America's national meeting
The Geological Society of America held its national meeting in Philadelphia Oct. 22–25, and although the University of Pennsylvania played official host for the nearly 6,000 geologists visiting the Delaware Valley, the meeting provided the opportunity for Temple's geology department, as well as faculty and students from other disciplines, to showcase its research.
From organizing sessions and moderating panels, to presenting papers and posters, to recruiting students and hosting alumni, Temple faculty and students were involved many of the event's activities.
No one at Temple was busier or more involved than associate professor Laura Toran, the Weeks Chair in Environmental Geology. She served as program chair for the division of hydrogeology, organizing the division's 36 sessions; co-authored four papers, and served as co-leader for a field trip on Philadelphia urban hydrology.
Associate professor Jonathan Nyquist, who shares the Weeks Chair in Environmental Geology, co-chaired a session on "Detection of Voids, Tunnels and Collapse Features" and co-authored an invited paper, "Rayleigh-wave diffractions due to near-surface features."
Two of Nyquist's students, Hallie Meighan and Matt Heaney, presented papers, "Mise-à-la-masse, resistivity tomography and smoke tests combined to map karst, Easton, Pa., (Meighan)" and "Marine resistivity as a tool for characterizing seepage zone at Lake Lacawac, Pa. (Heaney)"
Dennis Terry, associate professor of geology and the campus representative for GSA, organized and co-chaired a theme session on "Eocene-Oligcene climate change" that featured speakers from the United States and Europe, and authored or co-authored seven papers, including "Paleoclimatic change across the terrestrial Eocene-Oligocene boundary of the northern Great Plains: the paleosol perspective."
Three of Terry's graduate students presented papers: Audra Shemkovitz, "A lithostratigraphic comparison between the Cape Fear Formation and an unnamed non-marine unit of the southeastern Atlantic Coastal Plain;" Gary Stinchcomb, "Soilscape analysis of the Scenic-Poleslide Member boundary, Badlands National Park, South Dakota;" and Jason Mintz, "When the Badlands went dry: a paleopedologic investigation of climate change in the Oligocene of South Dakota." In addition, Terry participated in a post-conference field trip to investigate the paleontology and depositional environments of the 370-million–year-old Catskill Formation, a time marked by major global changes in fossil flora and fauna.
Professor and department chair David Grandstaff presented "The effects of provenience and taphonomy on rare earth and trace element signatures in vertebrate fossils from the Eocene-Oligocene White River Group, Toadstool Geologic Park, Crawford, Neb.," a paper he co-authored with Terry.
Student Kathleen Gross presented a paper, "Spring monitoring in an urban karst system," co-authored with Toran and fellow student Youa Yang.
In additional to geology, faculty and students from chemistry, engineering and psychology also presented research at the GSA meeting.
Nora Newcombe, professor and the James H. Glackin Distinguished Faculty Fellow in psychology, presented "Are men better visualizers?" a paper on sex differences in visualization and their relevance to geoscience education.
Sudeep Debnath, a chemistry student, presented a poster on behalf of chemistry professor Daniel Strongin, "Reactions at Mineral-Water Interfaces: The Role of Solute Adsorption on Contaminant Co-Adsorption, Mineral Dissolution and Colloid Behavior," on which Debnath collaborated.
Two graduate students and one postdoc working with Michel Boufadel, associate professor and chair of civil and environmental engineering, presented. Qinghong Zhao presented a poster on contaminant transport in coastal aquifers. Ibrahim Ibrahim had an abstract for a paper titled "Locally inversed salinity distribution in a sloping-beach cross-section" at a session on Salinization Processes and Problems in Coastal and Inland Aquifers. These papers were co-authored with Boufadel and postdoc fellow Hailong Li, who also presented a paper on tidally influenced beaches.
The GSA also provided an opportunity to advertise and recruit for graduate students and geology faculty and students manned a booth during the four days. "We had many undergraduate students from outside the Philadelphia region come up to our booth to ask about our graduate program because they had the chance to experience Philadelphia, enjoyed their visit, and wanted to return for graduate research," said Terry.
Finally, on behalf of the geology department, Toran organized a reception for Temple geology alumni and close to 30 former students reunited with faculty to reminisce and reconnect with old friends.

Original, Unused Opening to Say Anything

One of three scenes posted by Cameron Crowe from the final shooting script that never made into the film.

Watched this last night. Man, I wish it was better. I so wanted to love it.
I think it was coming from exactly the right place — darkly comedic and ultra-violent and perhaps a bit mad — but it just didn't work. Despite a lot of gore, it never got close enough to the edge. It needed a bit more Taxi Driver (or maybe King of Comedy), a bit less Napoleon Dynamite. The low-budget techniques made it feel cheep instead of gritty, and entire scenes felt rushed, like they just went with whatever happened in the first take.
Ultimately, though, what did it in was Rainn Wilson. So fucking dull. No edge at all, no matter how crazy the eyes, no matter how loud the yelling. For a psycho, he's the most boring character you'll ever see.
But Ellen Page? Holy shit was she fantastic. I've never seen a movie that was so full of life with one person on screen, so utterly devoid of it without. She plays a comic nerd with a filthy mouth, a love of violence, a crazy psychotic vigilante laugh, and a thing for cosplay sex. Her pint-sized fury is hilarious and just the right amount of crazy. She totally saves the movie. I'd pretty much recommend it on her performance alone.

I think you have to acknowledge the fact that Blizzard is constantly releasing "expansions".
Patch 2.3 brought a whole new Instance to the game, as will 2.4. These aren't "major" changes I grant you, but they still add content.
I for one would like to see things scaled a bit differently, to acknowledge the new XP/Leveling system, as well as Outland loot. Scholomance and Stratholme are kick butt instances, but does anyone who isn't a Paladin or Warlock even run them anymore? I rolled a toon right before 2.3, and before I knew it, I was in Outland, having completely skipped over everything in the Searing Gorge and Burning Steppes.
So much Azerothian content is being skipped over or is useless, because everyone is in such a hurry to get to Outland. Who cares about Elemental Fire or Water anymore, when it's all about Primal Fire and Primal Water. Arcanite only matters to a very select few, as does Enchanted Thorium, because now it's about Felsteel and Primal Mights. Argent Dawn? I want Cenarion Rep!
The biggest mistake that Blizzard made was putting a defining line between Outland and Azeroth. BS recipes in Outland don't need Thorium, Mithril or Truesilver anymore, hence no such veins in OL, and hence, no need for any of those metals once you hit 58. Leatherworkers no longer need Rugged Leather since Knothide is where it's at. Once you hit a certain level, you only ever return to Azeroth to train, hit the AH, or farm low level mats for gold or to craft stuff for other toons.
I'm just hoping they don't make the same mistake with WoTLK, thereby giving people no reason to return to Outland once they hit LV 71.

During his pre-combine workouts with Cardinals' cornerback (and former LSU teammate) Patrick Peterson, Mathieu reportedly ran a 4.47 forty-yard dash. Speed was one of the concerns scouts had with Mathieu, but if he can run that time at the combine, he should put those concerns to rest. Mathieu's 4.47 time was faster than cornerbacks Morris Claiborne and Dre Kirkpatrick, both of whom were first-round picks in the 2012 draft. Mathieu is also only .01 second behind Janoris Jenkins, who was selected in the second round due to similar marijuana-related issues.
There were plenty of concerns regarding whether or not Mathieu would be in shape after sitting out the 2012 season at LSU, but teams should have nothing to worry about. Peterson is reportedly working him hard and getting him prepared. A 5th overall pick himself, Peterson is probably a good trainer to have for pre-combine workouts.
"Patrick goes at him hard," Peterson's father, Patrick Peterson Sr., told the New Orleans Times-Picayune. "He'll push him on the ground or whatever he's got to do to get Tyrann prepared.
"He's going to be good. He's going in strong. He's looking like Tyrann. He's staying away from the off-field stuff and he's focused. He looks like he means business, very locked in. He knows he can't get another strike. He's conformed to our rules, working out and trying to get better."
Mathieu has been living with Peterson's family in Florida since leaving LSU, in case you were wondering what Peterson Sr. meant by "our rules."
As I alluded to before, Mathieu isn't simply proving he's a better player, he's proving that he's a better person. He made himself available to NFL teams for interviews during Senior Bowl week, which he voluntarily attended. He has been taking regular drug tests from a certified clinic so he can prove that he's clean before the draft. He's even attempted to get rid of his "Honey Badger" nickname from his playing days at LSU.
If I were an NFL general manager, I wouldn't let Mathieu's off-field past outweigh his on-field ability. What people forget is that college athletes are also college students. They should obviously be aware that they need to be careful because they're in the spotlight, but all college kids make mistakes. If you never made a mistake in college, you were doing it wrong. Just because a person makes a mistake when they're 20 years old does not mean it's going to be an issue for the rest of his career.
Let's take a look at some recent players whose draft stock dropped due to off-field concerns:
LeGarrette Blount's stock plummeted after a post-game fight in college. The undrafted rookie ran for over a thousand yards in his first year, and hasn't had an off-field incident in his three years as a pro.
The aforementioned Janoris Jenkins was kicked out of the University of Florida for recurring issues with marijuana - pretty much the same thing that Mathieu was kicked off the LSU football team for. Jenkins started 14 games as a rookie in 2012 and led the league with four defensive touchdowns.
It sounds to me like Mathieu finally understands how to be mature and professional. He's taken all the right steps so far in the pre-draft process. He's already addressed one of the scouts' concerns (speed), though the combine will address some of the others (height and weight).
I would be all over Mathieu in the draft if he starts to drop because of the off-field concerns, and I think that he could be one of the steals of the draft if his stock drops far enough. Keep in mind, he was a Heisman Trophy finalist and won the Chuck Bednarik Award (best defensive player in college football). Several NFL personnel members had called him a first-round talent prior to his dismissal from LSU.
Here's a reminder of what Mathieu used to do during his days as the Honey Badger:

Like any respectable dirt bike, the Derbi DRD 125 SM features an unstoppable character and is able to deal with any type of terrain without too much fuss.
The motorcycle is powered by a 124 cc, 4 Stroke, 4V Euro 3 engine which is paired with a six speeds gearbox. The engine rewards you with a peak power of 11 kw achieved at 9750 rpm and 11.4 Nm of torque available at 7500 rpm.
In terms of design, the Derbi DRD 125 SM features a pretty modern style and we especially like the aggressive graphics and the sharp lines.
The motorcycle rides on a front inverted fork with a 41 mm Ø bar and a rear adjustable shock absorber. This sporty suspension configuration allows it to tackle any track with poise.
The stopping power is assured by 260 mm front and 220 mm rear disc brakes with radial mount calipers.
Hit the jump for more information on the 2013 Derbi DRD 125 SM.
The Derbi Senda DRD 125, designed for the youngest, is conceived to become a true benchmark in the 125 cc Enduro and Supermotard categories.
Its image and aggressive graphics combine with the great dynamism of its lines.
The design and its innovative stylistic elements were inspired by FX Cross Freestyle motorbikes.
There is a large space between the back part of the seat and the chassis, ensuring better manoeuvrability for stopping and while in action, giving personality to the back part of the motorbike.
The robust inverted fork with a 41 mm Ø bar, the brake system with radial mount callipers, the swingarm with articulated rods, the adjustable shock absorber with a separate reservoir and the steel perimeter chassis give the necessary structural resistance in the most demanding Enduro sections and the necessary alignment accuracy and stability for Supermotard circuits.

The University Honors Program open to students of all majors, is at the heart of SMU's intellectual community. Students are prepared for the future through a program that centers on the values of a broad-based education in the humanities and sciences.
Honors students enjoy intellectual challenges from dedicated University faculty in small classes (of 15 to 20 students whenever possible) that place a premium on in-class conversations and faculty-student interaction. The Honors curriculum encourages students to explore their individual interests through special research projects and interdisciplinary studies—on campus in Dallas, at SMU-in-Taos (New Mexico) and elsewhere in the United States or abroad.
Honors students take the same number of classes that non-Honors students take, but do so in an environment that encourages greater individual learning and achievement. The Program extends beyond the work in the classroom to the development of a community of scholars—students and faculty—who relish the challenge and adventure of the life of the mind. In so doing, the University Honors Program serves as the intellectual heart of SMU, broadens students' perspectives, and raises the level of discourse across campus.
SMU's Honors students are active and visible in all facets of University life. In short, the University Honors Program expands and enriches the undergraduate possibilities and horizons.

NEW YORK (MarketWatch) -- U.S. stocks on Friday started a new month with strong gains after the January nonfarm payrolls report bolstered thinking that the lackluster recovery remains on track. "This is the day we probably reach 14,000 on the Dow," said Darrell Cronk, regional chief investment officer at Wells Fargo Private Bank. "The primary driver is not the 157,000 new jobs, but the positive revisions to the months of November and December," Cronk said. The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA, -0.25% rose 81.97 points, or 0.6%, to 13,942.55. The S&P 500 index SPX, -0.25% gained 8 points, or 0.5%, to 1,506.11. The Nasdaq Composite COMP, -0.14% added 19.35 points, or 0.6%, to 3,161.48.

Love the twist using ginger snaps over graham crackers. I find it no problem to use just half a can of condensed milk in these bar cookie recipes. Plenty of sweetness with chips and all. I'll make it again, holiday or not.

kristmasklaus Posted: 12/24/10
I was pleasantly suprised. These are christmas....Even for people who may not particularly care for gingersnaps... end result is just a mild flavor and outstanding! I lined the pan with parchment overlap to help remove the entire block after cooling to make cutting easier,(still greased paper) and, I sprinkled the MM's after 12 min.baking time so they maintained their shapes. I also poured the ENTIRE can slowly over the entire cookie (instead of just the base cookie), as I wanted that flavor to be thru & thru.... definately a do over!!

TEAMS: San Francisco 49ers
TEAMS: San Francisco 49ers
The San Francisco 49ers identified Eric Reid as the player that they were going to get to replace Dashon Goldson. There are a few differing opinions on Reid but Trent Baalke and the 49ers' scouting team had him directly in the cross hairs. The safety position had to be addressed and the 49ers feel that they hit a home run by drafting the high character player from LSU. WATCH CHARLES DAVIS AND BRIAN BILLICK GIVE THEIR EVALUATION OF THE ERIC REID SELECTION Some people showed a degree of concern over how few interceptions Reid accumulated in his last year at LSU. He only had two interceptions in the 2012 season, however many people overlooked the fact that he had seven pass breakups. The only safety that was selected before Reid was Kenny Vaccaro and he only had two interceptions. Vaccaro also had seven pass breakups. Reid was recognized as a consensus first-team All-American, having received first-team honors from the American Football Coaches Association, Football Writers Association...

I have no experience with guild transfers but have seen character transfers be quite successful. Sometimes, peoples' schedules or play styles simply don't mesh with their current server/guild. In that case, transferring can be a blessing.
Perhaps your officers are feeling this conflict right now? Guilds often promote the most avid players to officer positions: people who always show up ready to raid and will spend extra time helping gear others of giving them tips. Unfortunately, this can cause a divide where your officers are more keen on progression than the your other raid members. Your officers may be tempted to jump to a server that accommodates their goals (speedy progression) but feel obligated to throw a line to the rest of you. This way they aren't "killing" the guild, just changing it's face.
It's a difficult position for all sides. :(

Sarah Wayne Callies Introduction
Sarah Wayne Callies is a redheaded actress who is best known as Dr. Sara Tancredi on the show Prison Break and Lori Grimes in AMC's The Walking Dead.
Life Story
Sara graduated from Dartmouth College in 2002 and decided she wanted to try her hand in acting. Her first role on TV was as Kate O'Mailey, a recurring role on Queens Supreme. Her first starring role was as Dective Jane Porter on Tarzan, a short lived Warner Bros. TV series (big surprise). She then went on to appear as a guest star in a number of high profile network shows like Law and Order: Special Victims Unit, Dragnet and Numbers (also starring Navi Rawat). Sarah made it big when she landed the starring role on FOX's Prison Break (also starring Robin Tunney). Before season three Sarah became pregnant and decided she would not return to the show. This upset so many fans that they started a petition to bring her back. She decided to come back. Sarah married Josh Winterhalt in 2002 they have one child together.

|Wine Industry Metrics
|Please select:
August 2013 Data Released on 09.13.2013Domestic Wines Up 7% in Sales and 3% in VolumeTable wine and sparkling wines produced in the United States grew 7% in sales in August compared to August 2012. The same 7% growth was recorded for 52-week sales compared to a year earlier, according to IRI, the Chicago based market research firm. The latest results continue a steady pace of growth that shows few monthly changes except for the traditional highs in November and December. Domestic wines have inched up to 80% market share, due to imports' slower 2% growth rate.
Off-Premise Sales » Month 12 Months August 2013 $531 million 7% $7,167 million 7% August 2012 $497 million $6,696 million
Cabernet Sauvignon Is No. 2 Seller, but Growing Faster Than Chardonnay
Cabernet Sauvignon is the second largest selling varietal, behind Chardonnay in sales, but faster growing in sales, in volume and in bottle price.
Cabernet Sauvignon reached $1.28 billion in sales during the 52 weeks ending Aug. 11 at stores tracked by IRI. Its sales growth rate of 7% beat Chardonnay's 4%, and matched the overall domestic wine sales growth rate. Cabernet increased in volume by 4% and price per bottle by $.23, while Chardonnay rose just 4% in sales, 1% in volume and $.16 in bottle price.
The $5-$7.99 segment is Cabernet's best seller, although it performs nearly as well in the next two more-expensive segments. The average sales price overall is $7.36, but in 750ml bottles the average rises to $9.47. Domestic Cabernet grew fastest in the $20-plus segment, where sales increased 19% in the past year and volume increased 32%. The average bottle price dropped 10% or $2.93.

I bought two sets of these chairs in different colors. They are really unique and like nothing I've seen before. I find them very comfortable but I am a six foot tall guy! I used a slightly larger accent pillow for back support. The best thing about them is that the seat is large and open so you can curl your legs up on it. Great for parties because two people can sit on the seat. Overall, I love the look of these chairs and the quality of the product I received is very nice. I thought the Harvest Gold color is prettier in person than the online photo. The weave is two tones creating the butterscotch look which adds a nice depth to the fabric. The nailheads are brass.
This is a beautiful chair. This is also the most uncomfortable chair I have ever sat on. There is absolutely NO give to the seat cushion. The oblong pillow does not address the issue with the back of the chair, which like the seat, has NO give and is on an unnatural angle. I would buy this chair at half the listed price if I knew it was only suitable to walk by and admire. SO disappointed.
The reviews almost deterred me from purchasing this chair, but I bought two for my new home and it is one of my favorite purchases thus far. Comfort, style, great price.
Chair arrived promptly and assembled easily. Color coordinates well with existing colors in my living room. Chair is very comfortable and spacious for one person. Even witih two people maintains a level of comfort and space.
I purchased 2 chairs for my master bedroom. They look great in the space but are not very comfortable. I hope that with time and usage the cushions will soften but, overall I love my chairs.
Look great, but seat is very firm. I love the way they look in my living room!
The other reviews said that this was not a comfortable chair, but it is really, really, hard - no cush-ie for my tush-ie! There is absolutely no cushion - no matter of time will soften this chair. The fabric was fine, but the tacks were not straight. Finally, the holes were not aligned/dirlled properly so that it would not go together properly. I could have forced it, but I think that over time it would have not held-up. With all of that said, I loved how it looked in my room. I was sorry to send it back.
purchased 2 chairs and they've been great additions to my bedroom suite! they are as beautiful as they are useful. comfy yet firm, roomy yet not bulky. the color is just as pictured and works well with my decor. the seat is large and firm but not uncomfortable. because of the firmness, i know I will get many years of enjoyment. this was an excellent purchase and it has made me return to Overstock to purchase living room furniture.
I bought this chair and I really like it. It has a nice color, it's very well built and seems to cost a lot more than you actually pay for it. The only thing I dislike it's the pillow that came with, I think they should have made a bigger one and with better quality too. I will be going to ****** or **** and hopefully I will find the right decoration pillow for this chair. And I will be buying another like this soon from Overstock! ;)

noone can replace warlocks
noone else is that bad
if somone else wants a turn at warlock bashing thought thats cool :)
want a hand?
"It will not suddenly turn failures into success; changing out one "weak" player identified by a damage meter won't suddenly make your raid that much more enjoyable."
odd things can:
recent raid on cho'gall, "what happened in P3?"
1) recount rapidly showed that there was a lot of dispelling of mass fear (its to long to leave people out with it)
so healer using mass fear/dispell was OOM'ing him
2) lack of dispells on corruption builder
pointed these 2 out and the next go was the cleanest kill we've had yet#
for the most part i agree with you though
especially since most people wouldnt be looking at who dispelled WHICH BUFFS - just total dispells (if they even check dispells)
its overused on the basic bit - and not enough in the detail

LILBURN - Voters on Tuesday elected Diana Preston as the first woman to serve as the city's mayor.Preston said she was pleased with the results, but she doesn't think her gender played a role in the election. "I think people were voting for the person," she said, adding that she was "quite surprised and quite validated" when she heard she won. "It was a real vote of confidence," she said. Preston received 673 votes, while Ken Swaim received 299, according to unofficial election results. Preston said her first tasks as mayor will be to figure out a way to get more input on the city from its residents and create more opportunities for residents to become involved. She said she also wants to continue the progress made by Mayor Jack Bolton, who decided against running for re-election. Swaim declined comment Tuesday evening. The race for City Council's Post 4 was close, with Tim Dunn beating Helen Bryson 286 to 405. Dunn said he was surprised but gratified when he heard he won. The political newcomer said he'll be working hard to learn how to do his new job. "This is all new to me," he said. "I plan to be learning at a very rapid pace. I hope to hit the ground running." Although Dunn gave his supporters credit in his election, he said he'll be "paying attention to the folks that supported Helen." Voters also approved a tax allocation district referendum, which passed 694 to 241. Dunn said he was in favor of the referendum, which he said could be a good tool for the city. As some people mistakenly identified the referendum with eminent domain, Dunn said it will be important to continue to clarify its meaning with residents.
