It's warm
If you're a person who wants to be warm while not having to layer layer layer...this is the topper you need. You will see little fuzzies everywhere if worn with a dark color. The colors are really warm and it's something different from cardigans and traditional sweaters...very stylish and comfortable.

I have received so many compliments on this sweater. It's comfortable and stylish:)

Sleeves are either too long or too short
I really loved the color of the sweater/vest in person more so than what is pictured here. Unfortunately, the "sleeves" on this one ruin it for me. They are not long enough to be sleeves, not short enough to have this top be considered sleeveless. This weird in- between ruined it for me. In addition, it's a bit short so it tends to look boxy. Please note: this sweater sheds like mad, and if you pair it with a dark tee like it is here, there will be fuzz everywhere. True to TL sizing. Very soft and otherwise great quality.

Great quality, poor fit
I ordered this sweater online and was really excited about it! When I pulled it out of the box it was incredibly soft and great quality. However - the fit was a big dissapointment. It wasn't flattering at all as it was very short and had no shape. Maybe if I had gotten it in a larger size it would have fit better, but I don't think this sweater is for me. Sadly, it will be going back.

Love this!
Perfect balance for fall because it goes well over a turtleneck for that little added warmth without overdoing it. It feels so soft and the multicolors are a great contrast with each other.

I wore this item the other day with a long sleeve black tee underneath (just like the picture shows) and it kept me at the perfect temp. I was warm enough but not sweating and uncomfertable if I was wearing a sweater. It's a nice sweater, I had to re-tie the tie throughout the day. I would recommaned this as something easy to wear on the weekends or running around doing arrands.
November 7, 2012
So cute!
I love everything about this topper! First, the colors are more vibrant and lively in person. I went with my usual fit in cardigans (S) and felt quite comfortable in this one. I did not find it to be itchy, but I am used to coarse materials. The topper can be worn over a tee, cami, or longsleeve shirt. It can be worn with jeans, dress pants, or even skirts. I highly recommend it!

Cute but sheds
Love the colors and look of this, however it does get little fuzzies everywhere, especially on a dark colored shirt underneath. A tad bit itchy but overall cute sweater.

With coverage of the upcoming Oscars seemingly everywhere, it may appear that winning awards is the most difficult job in show biz.
But for anyone who has tried to work on stage, TV or movies, you know that auditioning is the real work. It is the only thing the actor can control, and they must be performance-level, regardless of the room, audience or questions still rolling around in their head. Of course, it is at the same time totally outside of their control because of all the unknown factors that go into the final casting decision.
I was reminded of this yesterday while watching the documentary "Every Little Step" on Starz OnDemand. It tells the story of the casting of the 2006 revival of "A Chorus Line" on Broadway, while giving insights into the original cast, workshop and production some 30 years earlier.
You sweat right along side the dancers as they go through the initial cattle call and months of callbacks after callbacks. Most nervewrecking is the final callback — where the roles are down to two people — and seeing that final cut made.
Maybe they should give an award for Best Audition. Goodness knows a lot of good actors — and performances — never get past that claustrophic little room.

I pray they can remember to laugh
"Yesterday, December 7th, 1941 – a date which will live in infamy – the United States of America was suddenly and deliberately attacked by naval and air forces of the Empire of Japan."
It may have been a cold December day when the speech from President Franklin D. Roosevelt aired across the radio waves, but the 22-year-old was warm with anger, confusion and worry.
He had joined the Army right after high school. He and his buddies had been shipped all over the country for various training. Many he would never see again.
The witty farmer's boy had traded his garden hoe for a gun. He was in the Army now, and he wanted to make his momma proud.
He had a wife at home. She was busy managing the family grocery store with assistance from other family members. He talked with her the night before when they heard about the tragedy at Pearl Harbor.
Now he and his friends were huddled around the radio on December 8, as FDR delivered his speech to the nation.
"The attack yesterday on the Hawaiian islands has caused severe damage to American naval and military forces. I regret to tell you that very many American lives have been lost. In addition, American ships have been reported torpedoed on the high seas between San Francisco and Honolulu."
The young man began to run hundreds of names through his mind. He couldn't remember if he had any close Navy friends stationed in Hawaii or on those ships at sea.
"As commander in chief of the Army and Navy, I have directed that all measures be taken for our defense. But always will our whole nation remember the character of the onslaught against us."
That is when it hit him. He would be going to war, no doubt about it. Where would he be shipped? Regardless, he knew his ticket was ready. His training would be put to use, and he was scared to death.
"No matter how long it may take us to overcome this premeditated invasion, the American people in their righteous might will win through to absolute victory."
The fear left the man's body. It was that one line that seemed to make everything better. Would he be killed?
Possibly, but that wasn't the point. His country was hurting, and he wanted to do something about it.
That same country boy fought in Germany. He saw many of his friends die in front of him, many violently. He even held a few as they took their last breath before picking up his weapon and carrying on.
He went on several missions. One dying German in broken English even told him he would see him in Heaven one day.
He went many days with little food and sleep, but he never complained. Surprisingly, he never cried.
His heart hardened a little. His soul may have stretched thin a few times.
But he never lost his laugh. Even when the cold air swept through Germany onto him, he managed to make a joke or two about a Mississippi boy surviving such temperatures.
"If you can't laugh, you got nothing," he once told his granddaughter.
And really, laughing was about all he could do sometimes to keep his sanity.
His name was James Howard Jackson. And he was my Paw Paw.
Paw Paw shared a few memories about his time in World War II. He didn't like to reflect on it too much. Maybe I was too young or maybe he didn't want to remember it.
He was my hero, and the way he lived his life is why he was a part of what has come to be known as the Greatest Generation.
He didn't fight for fame or money but rather because it was "the right thing to do." And then he returned home with visions and nightmares of war only to hold his head up and rebuild his life.
He supported his family, raised his children, loved his wife and cared for his neighbors. And, he never lost his laugh.
For me, he made me who I am today.
As I look back on Sept. 11 ten years later, I can't help but think about how he must have felt all those years before.
It makes me proud of all our veterans from the past and those who are fighting today. I can't put into words the gratitude I have for them.
I can only pray that they come home safely.
And that they can remember to laugh.

BFW 2012: Maria Victoria
Wednesday, October 3, 2012 at 4:27PM
I first met Victoria Dominguez-Bagu of Maria Victoria Designs at a night of style for Zoora, and fell in love with her simple yet chic and wearable styles, since. Bagu's show at Boston Fashion Week was no different, the upbeat vibe of the collection, with patterns, stripes and golds inspired by the "sunsets at sea" paired beautifully with jewelry by Magdalena Stokalska.
First, play this tune (although it doesn't do any justice to DJ Mario's beats that evening!), and then, scroll through the photos imagining yourself on the ocean on a beautiful summer's eve...

PPL's best book picks
This is the time of year when "best book" lists are everywhere. Professional critics aside, the hallmarks of what makes a book stand out can vary wildly for individual readers. Recently, we conducted a staff "best books of 2012" survey, and while the results were scattered, there was one book that garnered multiple votes for best mystery or thriller. "Gone Girl" by Gillian Flynn swept this category for its fast-paced, page-turning story featuring two completely unreliable narrators: a wife, who has gone missing, and her husband.
"Best book" declarations can be very subjective. There are times when I've come to a complete stop because of the sheer beauty of the way something has been worded. Authors who have repeatedly done this to me include Junot Diaz, Anne Enright, Karen Russell, and Deborah Levy, among others. A "best book" can be a book that has made me laugh out loud ("Where'd You Go, Bernadette" or "Bossypants"); or it can be a book that brings me closer to knowing myself. Often, a "best book" is one in which an author has created a world to which I am entirely transported. 2012 has been a year of stellar selections that have hit me squarely in the middle. Here are some of those books:
"Where'd You Go, Bernadette" by Maria Semple
Bernadette, a MacArthur genius grant winner and suburban Seattle wife and mother, has disappeared, and her daughter, Bee, is determined to find her. Princeton moms with affection for offbeat humor and satire will devour this book. Written by a former "Arrested Development" screenwriter, this quirky missing mom mystery will leave readers laughing out loud, and wanting more. From run-ins with the PTO to utilizing an India-based virtual personal assistant to her marriage to a Microsoft guru and TED star, Bernadette is a character readers won't soon forget.
"Swimming Home" by Deborah Levy
Shortlisted for the Man Booker Prize, Deborah Levy plunges readers into this contained and controlled world that feels crystalline and surreal. Swimming in this dream world that is littered with sharp edges, and a steady, off-kilter, pulsing rhythm, there is a compulsion to follow the beats that propel you to its tragic end.
"The Forgotten Waltz" by Anne Enright
With adultery resulting in broken marriages as the pivotal plot point, "The Forgotten Waltz" brings to life characters that seem so authentic; it feels as though you know them even if you don't like them. Enright does a breathtaking job of articulating gut-wrenching emotions and feelings that evolve in the complexities of love and interpersonal relationships.
What defines a "best book" for you? Let us know which books made your list.
Nice post Kristin! Now I'm going to *have* to read Gone Girl.
Can I submit the post above for consideration? Kristin writes beautifully.
Great recommendations Kristen! Nice and concise. I'm going to check out all three.
I LOVED Where'd You Go, Bernadette? Kristin! In fact.. your advanced reader copy is still next to my bed waiting dutifully to be finished. I've definitely burst out laughing several times. The image of a mudslide imposing on a children's choir recital is just too much!
Other notables for me:
My Ideal Bookshelf
Casual Vacancy (for real!)
The Dog Stars
In One Person
The Age of Miracles
I've been liking so much of what I've been reading lately that it's very hard to narrow it down!

Is there a flame detector in the thing? IF so, it may not always be detecting that the flame is on, and then it will shut down, usually go into a purge cycle (keep the fan on), then try to relight, assuming it is still calling for heat.
I have an AO Smith FPS 50 226 Powershot gas water heater. When there is a demand for hot water, everything starts up normally, but the burner goes out (can hear the solenoid click shutting it down) before the water is up to temp (the blower continues to run and the pilot is lit). While the blower is running, the burner may refire at some point, but then it shuts down again. If I reset it using the on/off switch on the blower, it will refire and continue to burn until it shuts off properly, though not always the first time. I've run some of the tests outlined by the tech manual, but it doesn't seem that this condition fits the ones covered. The blower, power cable (tested for 120 at both and got it), and gas valve solenoid are all fine (replaced the latter to no effect). The wire harness that connects the power cable to the gas pressure valve and solenoid is not showing 120 volts (in fact it shows 0) to the solenoid (according to the manual this could indicate that the harness needs replacement), but continuity is good in all 4 wires (no shorts). Haven't tested the gas valve for pressure yet, nor have I tested the gas pressure switch (though the conditions according to the manual don't point to this being a problem, and I'm not sure how to do that specifically even if it did). I know the water heater is old (about 12 years), but I'm not in a position to replace at the moment. Could it still be the harness, the gas pressure switch, or is there something else I should be looking for?
Is there a flame detector in the thing? IF so, it may not always be detecting that the flame is on, and then it will shut down, usually go into a purge cycle (keep the fan on), then try to relight, assuming it is still calling for heat.

Not sure about the flame detector. I've been through the parts diagram and have seen nothing of the sort. Haven't pulled anything out from underneath yet (Pilot tube, thermocouple, etc.) to check, though. I've read that flame sensors can be a problem, just not sure if mine has one. Will be poking around here shortly.
May not be a flame sensor (other than that heated by the pilot). There may also be a pressure sensor that isn't working, but that often would prevent the flame from even starting to come on. Depends on where it is in the safety circuits. If the exhaust is partially plugged, that can affect things enough so that the pressure sensor won't allow the flame. these are generic comments, and may not apply to that device. If you read the theory of operation in the manual, and can follow the block diagram, it should help point you to the problem.

O friggin' MG. So, get this: I was at Home depot today picking up a gas test gauge to test the main gas valve (wanted to do it anyway, just to be sure). I was explaining to one of the associates what was going on and a gentleman overheard our conversation. Turns out the guy does nothing but water heaters and told me that probably 80 to 90% of the time when there's a problem like mine, it's that the blower is so caked full of dust that the fan can't move enough air to let the air pressure gauge to it's job right - the gauge thinks there's not enough air moving so it sends out a signal to shut off the burner. All right, so I went home, dismantled the blower and cleaned it all out. After hooking it all up, I triggered the thermo to call for heat. Everything started up normally, and lo and behold, after waiting for about 5 minutes, the burner shut off, and in a couple of seconds, so did the burner!!!! Wow! Anyway, gonna keep my eye on the whole thing, but if that was the problem, pass the word and maybe we can save some people out there a load of money. I'll post updates if anything changes. Thanks for the input Jim!
I have a A.O. Smith Power shot water heater. It is a 50 gal. I have had the same problem. It won't stay lit. I was getting a system lock out code. I tested every option under system lock out . the green light on and A & B on. I read about 100 blogs with people getting the same problem without sucess. I called A.O 's techs 3 times and they said it had to be in those areas. I finally decided to check the blower unit even though A.O's techs said it wouldn't be. Before I did, I checked the vaccuum switch on the side of the blower. It is a small black disc about the size of silver dollar with a clear plastic tube running to it. I blew in it and turned the start switch on. As long as I blew and kept pressure on the switch , the flame would not go out and soon as I stopped blowing in the tube,it went out.That hose has to have consent air pressure so it knows the the fan is moving exhaust from the flame or it shut the gas valve off. It is a quick way to check with out pulling the blower. the other end of the hose that you disconnected from the barbed brass fitting. You can blow through the brass barbed fitting. You should find it plugged. You can clean it with a pipe cleaner if you don't want to pull the blower assembly. Mine has been running great since I cleaned that brass fitting going to the hose that goes to the vaccuum switch. Hope this helps. John in
I have a A.O. Smith Power-shot water heater. It heats fine when it needs to but the power vent runs all the time. Why?

"Single beds uncomfortable"
Lovely hotel, recently refurbished, but for two mature ladies I believe two double beds would have easily fitted into our apartment. The single beds which were more suitable for children than grown ups. Maybe this should be looked into further for other 60 year old single women travellers.Дійсний відгук від користувача Hotels.com

"Very good overall"
Everything was great, except when I woke up and tried to turn the heater on. It finally started quite late- about 7.30am i think. Is it on a central control? If so- it should be on all the time- I was going to go for a run but it took me ages trying to figure out why the heater was not going- in the end in the fuse box it said it was activated centrally. […] I then gave up and had a shower instead. The rest of it was great- good decor, very clean, good shower, good everything (actually pretty excellent) except for the heater. once it was on it took about 5 mins to heat up the room and I turned it off again.

"Everything you need for an apartment holiday"
Our visit to Napier was last minute - so finding this serviced apt was very lucky (Hotels.com - cheers!). Located just at the beginning of the city center, our walk to the beach was an easy stroll - everything along the walk suggested good location to services (as we arrived late in the day, off- season - many shops/cafes were closed@ 5pm). As expected, […] a great pub was just off the beach, so our evening dinner plans were set. The BEST gelato ever (outside Italy) was just across from the visitor i center. Quest apartments were well serviced, had washer and dryers in rooms, and had pleasant/helpful staff - we would stay there again! Читати даліДійсний відгук від користувача Hotels.com

I would expect that in a one bedroom place you would find a double or larger bed in the bedroom and a single on foldout couch in the living space. Other than that […] the Quest is a very nice place to stay and I will bok a 2 bedroom on furthur visits. Читати даліДійсний відгук від користувача Hotels.com

"Napier For The Long Weekend"
I can honestly say this hotel is one of the best I have stayed in. I travel alot with my job and I am quite picky about the quality of hotels. When I arrived I was met at the Taxi and all my bags were carried in. I arrived early but the room was ready for me within the hour. The room was so clean and spacious and the two fans were fantastic in the heat. […] The staff were knowledgeable and very friendly I will recommend this hotel to all my friends and family. It was amazing!! Читати даліДійсний відгук від користувача Expedia
"Fabulous place!"
Our family thought this place was fabulous and we'd definitely stay again. The staff were very friendly and helpful and our rooms were great. After reading other reviews I had expected the rooms to be much smaller than they were and so I was pleasantly surprised as they exceeded my expectations. We loved the fact that the building was in a peachy central […] location yet it was peaceful at night because the shops nearby closed at 5 pm. Читати даліДійсний відгук від користувача Expedia
"Right in town, close to all shops"
We were happy with the accommodation as it was just on the edge of the business district in Napier, within walking distance of supermarkets and town centre, and cheap/free parking. The room got very hot in the afternoon but leaving the blinds down and windows open helped with that. Kitchen was not suitable for preparing a fine dining experience but […] ok for reheating food. It was all very clean and the bed was comfortable and large. Читати даліДійсний відгук від користувача Hotels.com
"Very nice indeed"
We were staying in the Studio for 4 nights. It is clean, tidy and with plenty of space to put our belongings. The location is great. Supermarkets are just 1 min away. I will definitely go back.Дійсний відгук від користувача Expedia

Booked this at the last minute, on the day but got it all sorted through hotels.com. I checked in even later than my expected check-in time but they waited and helped us find a restaurant for a late dinner when we arrived. Maybe because it was the city, but I had to pay for parking.

"Napier stay"
Good quality hotel in Napier town, so no water views but able to walk through city centre easily.

"Quest apartments in Napier"
This was my first stay in a Quest apartment. We arrived on a hot day in Napier and were shocked to find out that the apartments did not have any air conditioning. Our first night was extremely hot and uncomfortable. Although we were loaned a portable airconditioning unit this was loud and the room was still very hot. The apartments are adjacent to a […] public car park with night lights. The blinds in the room did not block out this light. For a 4.5 star facility I expected a bit more. On the positve side all other aspects of stay were great. The staff were very pleasant and the rooms were extremely clean and tidy. Читати даліДійсний відгук від користувача Hotels.com
"End your Quest, this is the best!"
We stayed in 7 different places on our journey around New Zealand and we can say without doubt the Quest Napier Serviced Apartments were the best.

We would recommend Quest to anyone and will stay there again.Дійсний відгук від користувача Expedia
"Great property - pity about the noise & room size"
Stayed at this hotel for 2 nights over New Year's in a studio room. Property has a lovely ambience and friendly owners/staff. Room was newly renovated and queen bed was comfortable. Unfortunately the room size was disappointing. Even the table only had 1 chair so we had to eat our meals on the bed (no lounge/dining area). There was only two of everything […] (2 forks, 2 plates, 2 bowls, 2 glasses etc) which meant we didn't have enough utensils to cook with. There was a dishwasher but you had to stay in during the cycle because the electricity switched off once you removed the security card. Worst part was that the council street cleaners started at 6am on NY day!! I was not a happy camper after NYE. The owners know this occurs and yet have not sound proofed the rooms. I'd hesitently recommend staying here if you could get a one bedroom apartment. I'd check first whether it's away from street noise though! Читати даліДійсний відгук від користувача Expedia

"Quest Apartments, Napier NZ - art deco capital"
Well situated in centre of Napier, NZ's art deco architecture capital. We haad a clean tidy and roomy studio, with good kitchen facilities. Access to free laundry facilities was available on request for studios, whereas I believe washers and dryers are provided in 1-bedroom apartments. Our studio had a pleasant bathroom, but hand-held shower fitting […] could not be tightened to face correct direction; staff earnest but unable to fix over weekend.

Serviced apartment, with a welcoming staff.

"Great location in Napier, NZ"
Quest Napier is in a great location about 5 minutes walk from the Art Deco wonders of Napier! The hotel appears to be quite new and is bright and airy. The staff are friendly and welcoming. I stayed in a 1 bed studio apartment. The apartment was clean and well presented, had a good sized living area and had a small kitchen with good facilities. The […] bathroom had a good wall unit storage and a great shower. There is no washing machine but laundry facilities are available on site. I stayed in winter (July 2011) and the heater in the room kept it warm and cosy. No air conditioning for summer stays but there is a ceiling fan and opening windows. There is a surface car park next door at ND$6 per day or the underground hotel parking at NZ$12. Very convenient nearby supermarket. I would definitely stay in this accommodation again.

"1 night at Quest Napier"
Very friendly and helpful couple running the place. Clean but spartan interiors. Servicable for brief stay but I would not spend a long time there. Right downtown so convenient to all the Deco sights and the shore. Parking in the lot was very difficult as it is so tight. Might consider the public parking option if you are used to US style parking. Very […] reasonable pricing. Читати даліДійсний відгук від користувача Hotels.com

As eye-catching stunts go, stripping off all your clothes and then pedalling naked past stunned pedestrians in London must rank highly.
That is precisely what 800 people did last Saturday in a 'flesh'- mob in the sunshine.
The naked bike ride along streets in the capital city was in protest against what protesters said is the rule of motor vehicles on London's roads.
Heading out from Wellington Arch to the Mall and then back again, the cyclists were shed their inhibition in aid of sustainable transport.
"It is about putting cycling and pedestrians first, instead of last," said a spokesman for the World Naked Bike Ride.
But how effective as a form of protest is shedding all your clothes?
"Everyone usually just gets out their camera phones and starts taking pictures. Many people who saw probably did not know what was going on."
There was a serious purpose to eighth annaul bicycle flash-mob, insisted the spokesman.
"It shows the vulnerability of cyclists in traffic and it's also tge only times when motorists see cyclists in the road. One of our signs read 'Can you see me now?'
"It can be very dangerous in London for cyclists. Blue cycle lanes can be disasterious, because the cyclist assumes they're safe within it, while motorists don't pay any attention."
"It certainly draws attention, but not from the long arm of the law.
A Metropolitan Police spokesman said no arrests were made for offences relating to public nudity.
Being naked in a public place is not criminal offence, but it can become one when it causes offence. This usually rests upon whether there was intention to cause offence.

UK Gentlemen's Race: Call for entries
Join us on the 22nd of June for the Rapha Gentlemen's* Race, an unmarshalled and unsanctioned point-to-point team challenge taking place around the Summer Solstice.
Each group of six riders will set off from the ancient walled city of York, leaving behind its winding medieval passageways and embarking on self-determined routes through the glorious scenery of the North Yorkshire Moors. Changeable June weather will no doubt present a challenge over the open landscape and coastline. In sun, rouleurs will take in summer blooms and vivid greenery covering abbey ruins, silent for centuries after the dissolution of the monasteries under Henry VIII. Inclement weather, however, could shift the mood to one more reminiscent of the shipwreck near Whitby which brought Dracula to England disguised as a black dog. Teams are required to pass through a halfway checkpoint in this sleepy port town. Battling potential offshore winds on the way back to York will need the strength of the stone walls of Whitby Abbey, where, nearly a thousand years ago, monks labored away at producing intricate gold-glossed manuscripts during the height of early medieval religious art in England. These great ruins, perched atop the cliffs and standing watch over the town below, also mark the spot where the modern Christian calendar was negotiated by a synod of bishops in the seventh century. No doubt a similar form of teamwork will be required from riders as they work their way back across the moors towards York and the finish, with the spires of the Minster, visible from miles away, beckoning each group homewards.
- Six riders per team
- Unsactioned, unsupported and unmarshalled
- Time trial format
- Time stops when the last rider crosses the line
- All riders must have their checkpoint cards stamped
- Teams can plot their own route but must find both checkpoints
- Fastest team wins
If you are unable to muster up a team then please email firstname.lastname@example.com and we will look to create a composite team.
*Riders of all levels and genders welcome. We use the term "Gentlemen" to imply a respect for the "rules of the road".

Simple HTML5 Canvas Drawing App: 'Stache the Hipster
I wanted to put together a mobile web drawing app that uses the canvas API available in HTML5 and also responds to touch events. I also wanted to draw mustaches on hipsters.
I found an awesome boilerplate for a touch-driven drawing app here. And from there I tweaked it a bit, added some simple javascript for the buttons, a nice slick web font, and a handful of choice hipsters from LATFH. For the time being, you can direct your smartphone here to start 'staching hipsters.

India Tours
- Agra
- Varanasi
- Rajasthan
- Pushkar
- Dharmsala
Wonderfully different, there is nothing quite like India. Travel a lot? No matter how much you've done or how many countries you've visited, when you first arrive in India it will hit you like a gale force wind. A hurricane of sounds, smells and colour where nothing is as it seems. Travel to India reveals a country that is both mesmerizing, exotic, exciting and mystical but at times frustrating, confusing and chaotic. Relax, stay calm, be patient and smile and India will open up herself to you in all her splendid glory.
Beaches & Backwaters (AHBB)
Watch the sunset through the fishing nets of Kochi, stretch out on white-sand beaches, drift through the tranquil backwaters and rise at dawn to see the sunrise. This 7-day tour offers a quick introduction to the diversity of South India. Inhale the exotic perfume of cardamom as you stroll through spice gardens and unwind with some yoga in your free time. Meet the locals and spend the night with a local family on a tour that's all about authentic cultural experience.
Highlights: Relax in the calm backwaters, experience a local homestay, chill out on quiet beaches, sample South Indian cuisine.

Highlights of South India (AHIS)
Compared to the North, southern India is a different place working on a different pace. But you don't need to devote a month to get here; this compact trip offers a healthy taste of Kerala's stunning tropical beauty. Luxuriate on the beach and watch the sunset, explore magnificent temples, and savour that last smidgen of flavour as you scrape your banana leaf plate clean. After a night aboard a houseboat in the tranquil backwaters, you may never want to leave.
Highlights: Learn the true meaning of relaxation on a houseboat cruising Kerala's backwaters, discover how fishermen's nets can be an attraction in their own right, drool over that extra helping of delicious South Indian cuisine
Highlights of India (AHNS)
North India or South? Do both! This 2-week tour combines the riot of Rajasthan's colours with the calming greens of Kerala. You'll have time to immerse yourself in regional traditions in the North and spend a night at a heritage village hotel, and time to unwind in the south—just imagine cruising the backwaters on a houseboat. Throw in the Taj Mahal, the 'Pink City' of Jaipur and Delhi's rich architecture and you're left with one spicy curry of an adventure—many flavours with big impact.
Highlights: Spend a night in a heritage village home, delve into ancient history and thriving modern culture, explore grand forts and palaces in Rajasthan, marvel at the Taj Mahal at sunrise, learn the true meaning of relaxation aboard a houseboat on Kerala's backwaters, discover a newfound obsession with South Indian cuisine

Two average sci-fi geeks get caught up in the ultimate interplanetary adventure after picking up an extraterrestrial during a road trip to Area 51 and becoming the targets of a nationwide manhunt. Graeme (Simon Pegg) and Clive (Nick Frost) are two British sci-fi geeks on holiday in America. After a trip to Comic-Con to meet their favorite author, Adam Shadowchild (Jeffrey Tambor), Graeme and Clive load up their RV and hit the road for a tour of some of the most famous UFO hotspots in the American Southwest. They know we're not alone in the universe, but they won't be satisfied until they get a firsthand glimpse of the famed Area 51. However, somewhere deep in the Nevada desert, the two UFO enthusiasts narrowly avoid crashing into a speeding car when they happen across a most unlikely hitchhiker. Paul (voice of Seth Rogan) is a pint-sized alien who has spent the last 60 years in Area 51. He's been cooped up in the care of the U.S. Government for far too long, and he's starting to get a little homesick. Though Graeme and Clive are more than willing to help their wisecracking new friend get back to his mother ship, Special Agent Zoil (Jason Bateman) of the FBI is closing in fast. And he's not the only one; in their race to get their new friend home, Graeme and Clive have also become unwitting kidnappers, and the enraged father of their not-so-unwilling captive, Ruth (Kristen Wiig), is determined to rescue his daughter at all costs. Sigourney Weaver, Bill Hader, Blythe Danner, and David Koechner co-star. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

On top of the main storyline of a female friendship being torn apart, the movie adds a romantic storyline for Annie, who starts the film answering a booty call from the casually cruel yet undeniably handsome Ted (Jon Hamm), but develops a lovely flirtation with an Irish cop named Rhodes (Chris O'Dowd) after he pulls Annie over one night thinking she's driving drunk. As the low-self-esteem Annie sabotages this new possibility for love, she also feels the most important friendship in her life slipping away. ~ Perry Seibert, Rovi

A mysterious criminal mastermind has stolen one of the pyramids in Egypt, sparking a fit of jealous envy in evil genius Gru (Steve Carell), who hasn't managed to make headlines since he and his minions swiped the Times Square JumboTron years back. Ever since Gru was a little boy, he dreamed of going to the moon. Now, if Gru can just build a rocket and get his hands on a powerful shrink-ray, he can cement his reputation as the greatest thief who ever lived by stealing the Earth's satellite right out of the sky. But immediately after Gru heists the shrink-ray, the cunning super-nerd Vector (Jason Segel) swoops in and snatches it right out of his hands. Now, in order to claim the moon, Gru must first reacquire the weapon from Vector. Armed with the knowledge that his nemesis has a mean sweet tooth, Gru adopts cookie-selling orphans Margo (Miranda Cosgrove), Agnes (Elsie Fisher), and Edith (Dana Gaier) and commissions a new line of cookie robots from the evil Dr. Nefario (Russell Brand), his personal weapons specialist. But as Gru and his diminutive yellow minions prepare to carry out the biggest heist in history, something strange happens. Gru discovers that the three little girls who have come into his life are much more than simple pawns. They actually seem to care about Gru, and it turns out the scheming evildoer makes a pretty good father. When Gru realizes that his upcoming moon mission clashes with a ballet performance by the girls, he must decide what's more important -- being a present parent or cementing his nefarious reputation once and for all. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

James is all set to embark on his dream tour of Europe when his parents (Wendie Malick and Jack Gilpin) suddenly announce that they won't be able to subsidize the trip.

A henpecked husband locked in a dead-end job attempts to reclaim his life with a little help from a self-assured teen and a pretty lingerie sales girl in this bittersweet romantic comedy starring Aaron Eckhart, Elizabeth Banks, and Jessica Alba. Bill (Eckhart) is a walking doormat; his in-laws look down their noses at him, his wife, Jess (Banks), neglects him, and his love for chocolate is beginning to affect his waistline. When Bill discovers that Jess has recently struck up a "friendship" with hotshot local reporter Chip Johnson (Timothy Olyphant) that she can't quite explain, his fears that his wife may have strayed are quickly confirmed. One day, a group of kids from the mentor program show up at the bank Bill works at, and one particularly insightful boy (Logan Lerman) recognizes that all is not well with the hapless husband and banker.

Destined to be perpetually single, their moronic, klutzy attempts at meeting new women (such as popping the question on a first date in a crowded restaurant) always blow up in their face. Then, one day, the Solomons receive the distressing news that their father is on his deathbed -- and to complicate matters, he indicates that his dying wish involves having a grandchild. John and Dean are happy to oblige -- but where in the world will they find a mother for this infant? Suddenly, the bachelors' romantic desperation doubles, and each brother embarks on a nutty, madcap quest to find the girl of his dreams and the mother of his future children.

Judd Apatow and Jake Kasdan team up to take the swagger out of the traditional music biopic with this look at the troubled life of fictional music legend Dewey Cox (John C. Reilly). Apatow and Kasdan both write and produce, while Freaks and Geeks and Orange County director Kasdan steps into the director's chair. Dewey Cox is a rock & roll legend whose songs have the power to shake a nation. Despite the fact that Cox's career has been something of a roller coaster ride, the fact remains that he never went out of style in the eyes of his many adoring fans. He's rubbed elbows with everyone from Elvis Presley to the Beatles, ingested every drug known to man (often in doses large enough to kill a healthy horse), starred in his own television show, and slept with hundreds of women, yet somehow he still finds the time to write some of the best-known songs ever to hit the airwaves. Now, after being married multiple times and fathering enough offspring to populate a small island nation, this musical icon continues to turn out the hits while attempting to win the heart of his beautiful backup singer Darlene (Jenna Fischer). While no one doubts that Dewey Cox will continue to dominate the airwaves, does this larger-than-life superstar really have what it takes to avoid the temptations of the rock & roll lifestyle and finally settle down with one woman? ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

LONDON, September 24, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --
For the fourth time in as many months, the "human computer" known as the Sports Trading Club golf savant has successfully predicted the winner of a PGA tour event, this time the 48-1 outsider Zach Johnson in the BMW Championship.
Johnson, a 37-year-old American, fired a final-round 65 to finish 72 holes on 16-under par 268, two strokes ahead of countryman Nick Watney, who closed with a 64, with Furyk another shot adrift after a final-round 71, to win the US PGA's $8 million BMW Championship.

There has been worldwide interest in the woman who is the Sports Trading Club (http://www.sportstradingclub.com) golf savant since earlier this year when she selected Billy Horschel to record his first PGA Tour victory in the Zurich Classic despite him being a 36-1 outsider.
She then chose Harris English at 66-1 to win the FedEx St. Jude Classic and last month Jason Dufner to win the US PGA Championship at the price of 42 - 1.
Her four extraordinary successes has stunned the sports betting world who fear the consequences of her accuracy.
"Her insight is a miracle of the human mind and a scientific phenomenon," said Howard Robin, STC Operations Manager.
The Sports Trading Club created The Insight Project, a world first with the study of savants and sports trading.
It is led by their scientific director Dr. Allan Snyder, FRS who, for some 20 years, has conducted ground breaking research on savants at both the Australian National University and the University of Sydney.
"We have embraced the extraordinary skills of savants to give ourselves a unique advantage," said Dr Snyder.
The Sports Trading Club, which operates as a private investors group in England, recently allowed the general public to become members in Australia and is expanding throughout Asia.
It reported a 1,350% profit for the first eight months of 2013 sending a clear message to investors that trading on sports and prediction markets is an emerging industry to rival traditional financial markets.
"Our move to Australia has proven to be astute. A person who invested $50,000 on January 1 of this year has seen that grow to $725,463 in eight months," Mr Robin said.
STC recently expanded into South Africa and South Korea is now looking toward expanding throughout Europe and Asia. STC is seeking a joint venture partner for the Macau market.

Iraq-One-Year-Later -- By Chelsea J. Carter
A year ago, with the departure of U.S. troops from Iraq, there was cautious optimism in Iraq about its future. That was on "Iraq Day," the celebration of the December 31 deadline for American troops to withdraw from the country -- a moment that marked the official end of the war. One year later, much about a post-war Iraq remains unclear -- for the Iraqis and Americans who lived it and fought it -- as the country struggles to define itself, with its government stumbling from one political crisis to another.
At least 16 people were killed and dozens were injured in attacks across Iraq Monday amid an apparent uptick in sectarian tensions. Most of the attacks targeted Shiites, including bomb blasts that injured pilgrims traveling to shrines just days before a religious celebration.
Leaders in Venezuela's capital are asking residents to take a more somber approach than usual to ring in the New Year.
South African President Jacob Zuma urged his countrymen Monday to keep the ailing Nelson Mandela in their prayers.
