Yahoo's Jeremy Zawodny noticed that MSN Search seemed to be overactively hitting his RSS feed, prompting MSN Search to respond via its blog that the news and blog crawler in testing may have been a tad hyperactive. MSN promises some tuning to get it to behave.
FYI, MSNBot does have instructions you can use to tell it to slow down, something put in place soon after the main web crawler prompted some complaints last year, when it was a bit hyperactive.
It's unclear whether the news/blog/feed crawler is using the same robot name and thus responding to the same commands. Jeremy doesn't have them on his site, nor did Greg Hughes who also blogged a complaint, but others who have complained might have.

Fair Enough. May I Ask A Question?
Submitted by begintowin on Sun, 12/23/2012 - 21:20. Permalink
My question is this: do you believe the murders concerning this case, occurred? A simple, 'yes' or 'no' will suffice.
It's not necessary to give a reason why you believe or don't believe the killings happened. I would appreciate your answer very much because I think it's important to establish a common baseline of thinking on this thread.
If your answer is, 'I don't know' or 'I'm not sure' that's okay too.
Thank you in advance.

In preparing for the movie, American Hustle, Christian Bale changed his appearance for the screen. He gained nearly 50 pounds to play Irving Rosenfeld, a character based on Melvin Weinberg, an actual conman.
Bale told Variety, "I loved the way he looked, because when I heard his story, I incorrectly assumed he would be this slick, smooth operator who assumed an air of wealth and control over his life. And when I saw him, I thought, 'Oh my word, this is not what I would have expected at all!"
Perhaps considering the actual people made Bale's performance one of the most memorable of this year. When considering the film, director David O. Russell told the LA Times that sometimes truth is stranger than fiction.
Bale is nominated this year for Best Actor in a Leading Role for his portrayal of Irving Rosenfeld. Bale has also starred as Bruce Wayne in The Dark Knight and The Dark Knight Also Rises, Dicky Eklund in The Fighter, and John Miller in The Flowers of War.
The 86th Annual Academy Awards will be held on March 2 at the Dolby Theatre.

The Samsung SSD 840 EVO is a high-performance SSD designed for power users. Capable of delivering up to 98,000 IOPS Random Read Speed and 540MB/s Sequential Read speed, it is an SSD of unrivaled high performance. Even better, the advanced MEX controller delivers these speeds regardless of data type, unlike some competing controllers that greatly favour compressible data.
Thanks to Samsung TurboWrite technology, Samsung SSD 840 EVO can deliver much faster sequential write speeds compared to the previous model -- up to tripling the speed from 130 to 410MB/s in 120 GB drives, and doubling it from 250 to 520MB/s in 250 GB drives.
Like changing gears in a car, with Magician software you have the option of RAPID mode, enhancing performance by processing data on a system level through the use of free PC memory (DRAM) as a cache. Depending on your PC memory, you can expect high performance and more efficient command processing, which improves with repeated tasking.
Shocks, vibrations, high temperatures -- bring it on. Equipped with Advanced Signal Processing, Samsung SSD 840 EVO automatically corrects errors so you'll worry less about your data's stability. Plus, using Samsung Self-Monitoring Analysis and Reporting Technology (SMART), you can track your SSD's health status. SMART warns you of any unforeseen errors before they occur, so you'll be prepared.
Samsung's Dynamic Thermal Guard protection monitors the temperature of the SSD, preventing it from overheating. When the SSD is exposed to extreme temperatures, the algorithm controls the SSD's power supply to keep it cool. Plus, with Samsung SSD 840 EVO your PC becomes lighter, meaning you can carry it around with you.
Samsung 840 EVO Self Encrypting Drive (SED) security technology will help keep your data safe at all times. The drive is included an AES 256-bit hardware-based encryption engine to ensure that your personal files remain secure -- even if you lose your laptop.
Enjoy doing more of what you love on your computer for longer. Samsung 840 EVO SSD features low idle power consumption. This is important because PCs spend 80 to 90 per cent of their time sitting idle. The drive promotes energy savings and longer battery life.
Using a SATA-to-USB 3.0 connector provided in the laptop upgrade package, for a data size of 100 GB, you can migrate all the data from your HDD to 840 EVO in just 24 minutes. The Auto Install guide included in the toolkit will guide you smoothly through the installation process.
Samsung 840 EVO SSD uses both structural engineering and C-cutting to diamond-cut the premium titan surface, for a sleek and stylish appearance. Watch your PC become reborn with a premium look that expresses its powerful performance.
Its pretty much what it says, its a SSD, good quality build, very light not much else to say.

TV Look-Alikes: Minka Kelly & Leighton Meesterby Matt Richenthal at . Comments
Young. Beautiful. On the cusp of stardom. These descriptions fit Minka Kelly just about as well as her cheerleading outfit. But they also apply to another actress who bears a resemblance to the Friday Night Lights star.
Leighton Meester, star of the much talked-about Gossip Girl on The CW, is another young actress starting to generate buzz. She's also adorable, with a knowing half-smile and long, flowing brown hair. Much like Minka Kelly...
Two of our favorite TV look-alikes: Leighton Meester and Minka Kelly.
Leighton made her Gossip Girl debut last night, while Minka Kelly and the rest of her Friday Night Lights cast members return live Friday, October 5. These are two cuties you'll be hearing a lot from in the coming years.
Matt Richenthal is the Editor in Chief of TV Fanatic. Follow him on Twitter and on Google+.Tags: Friday Night Lights

Renewing the Vows in Rumbai
... was not in play for the ceremony. May first being a national holiday in Indonesia, the course was very busy with twosomes and foursomes playing back to back. With a quick and decisive sidestep, I moved the ceremony from the green of the 15th to the tee box of the 16th hole. This would necessitate the golfers playing around us, but would put us out of danger of flying projectiles.

Rated 4.2 out of 5 by 269 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by BAG1 This resort has something for everybody Arrived to our beautiful clean suite to find a great view of water features. Then went for walk around village and stayed to enjoy the live show at the village stage. After enjoyed soak in the large hot tub and put on their signature Westin robes. Had good sleep in their comfy king bed. The next morning had great breakfast in hotel restaurant then made short drive to to town to see more live music. Great weekend! July 27, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by RIK2014 Met expectations The Westin lives up to the Starwood groups reputation and expectations. Staff were very friendly and accommodating as they normally are at a Starwood property. Everything was exceptional except we found the restaurant to be a bit pricey. That's surprising due to the fact that there are so many other choices close by. We did not eat at the restaurant although initially we had planned to. We hope to return soon for another visit. July 23, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Stacey0106 Nice stay We stayed for three nights on the third floor. We had a little kitchenette and a view of the mountain. Not sure why we didn't get a balcony as both rooms on either side of us had one. Reasonably quiet room but was miles away from the elevator. Hotel facilities were nice and centrally located on the resort. All staff were friendly and helpful. August 4, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by Clarke67 Great location Check in was extremely slow front desk staff was inefficient.....took way too long. Not enough access to chairs by the pool. Lots of reserved chairs with towels. Pool staff were great, tried to be as accommodating as best as possible August 10, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Heln This hotel has great amenities Spacious and well thought out guest rooms / suites. The lovely bathrooms, kitchenette, balcony and gorgeous fireplace make it all a complete package. August 12, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by RIK2014 A great getaway The hotel was comfortable, in a great location and hospitable. We were disappointed that the hot tub was not operational. The pool quality could have been better. I refrained from swimming in it because of the lack of clarity which was upsetting because of the very hot weather we experienced. As a pool owner I know when a pool needs attention. July 29, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Kimmy103 Stylish classy hotel in fantastic location This hotel exceeded our expectations the 1 bedroom suite was beautiful (we were in the newly renovated Suites on 5th floor) Everything was perfect including the in room massage we arranged with the front desk prior to our arrival (Tina the RMT was wonderful) I would highly recommend this hotel and will definitely be returning! Front desk staff always helpful with a smile (Stephanie was so nice and helpful) and the door men were always so pleasant and helpful they couldn't have done more to make you feel at home and put a smile on your face. July 15, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Jess123 Great family stay My family (husband, 5 y.o and 3 y.o) and I stayed at the Westin for 2 nights. We were able to check-in at the designated 4 pm time, and my request for a village view was honoured. The check-in staff were very friendly and courteous. It was our first time at this hotel, and were pleasantly surprised by the room, with high ceilings and roomy bathroom. The beds were comfortable, but pillows were lumpy. Noise level while sleeping was affected by the air conditioning sound going on and off (we had not adjusted the thermostat). The kitchenette was well appointed, except lacking a dish towel (which was given the next day). The major issue I had with this kitchen was the unwashed coffee machine. If you didn't bother having a cup of coffee, you wouldn't have known...but I opened the top, the coffee filter cup was crusted with old liquid, and I pulled out the glass pot and the top also was dirty. After seeing this, I proceeded to wash every plate, utensil, and cup in the dishwasher before I had my family use them for meals. If attention to detail can't be given to the coffee machine, I can't trust the other items would be clean as well. The pool temperature was wonderful, and towels were plentiful. The pool washroom was a bit musty smelling, but what can you expect for a pool bathroom. It was much appreciated that there were extra life jackets and pool toys for the kids! A great extra touch. The resort private beach also was a pleasant surprise. We went later in the day, and it was not very busy. Towel service and relatively clean washrooms! The vendor who was renting out the kayaks refused to rent out a boat to me after 5 pm (as they closed at 6pm). I understand since it was an hourly rental, they wanted to make sure guests returned their equipment on time...but I was a customer willing to pay full price (an hour's rental) for only 30 minutes because my son wanted to try the kayak (at 5:15pm). I was surprised an entrepreneur wouldn't take me up on that offer. Nonetheless, the experience at the beach was a pleasant one. The location of the hotel is great -- close to the village, activities, beach...a truly nice getaway for a few days. Thank you to the lovely staff! August 22, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Happytraveler17 Excellent and amazing! We stayed at the Westin in Blue Mountain for 5 nights with our 2 kids. It was an amazing experience and everything was beyond our expectations. We had a one bedroom suite and it was enough room for all four of us. The service was impeccable as well as the food. I would highly recommend this hotel for a relaxing and comfortable experience for families and those without kids! July 20, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Caspita Relaxing and great food! Our first time staying at the Westin and it surpassed our expectations. It was also our dog Molly's first hotel experience and the staff was amazing! Thank you! August 6, 2014

Rated 4 out of 5 by 10izboy Good Hotel, Great Location Typical Westin Hotel, facilities and service all first class. Hotel feels a little "disney like", but over-all the best hotel to choose from in the Collingwood area. Biggest complaint, long dark narrow hallways, very claustrophobic feeling and out of keeping with rest of hotel. July 28, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Jay1234567 Great hotel Beautiful winter location. Snowed while we were there so it was perfect. We attended a company Christmas party. Excellent facilities and great staff. Lots to do for the whole family. Only negative was our TV was broken, normally we would not have cared but the kids were staying in while we were out at the party. Staff tried to fix it and even offered to replace the whole TV. They offered up DVD's and it worked for us. Staff is incredibly friendly and we are planning to visit again just the two of us this time. December 9, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by TEE1 THIS HOTEL IS GREAT!! My family and I stayed at the Westin last week, for a family get away it was wonderful. My kids loved the place from the pool to the hot tub... We will be coming back real soon. I highly recommend this hotel. Theresa M July 28, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Malkie getaway The hotel catered to all of our needs. We were a group ranging in age from 2 yrs. to 72 years. Can't wait to return. August 2, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by dydy LEFTOVER FOOD IN FRIDGE I found a box of leftover pizza in my fridge but it was not there the day before and it does not belong to me. Someone must have accessed my room and put it in my fridge. This feels extremely unsafe. July 27, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5 by pfanian Room Not Ready for check-in time Our room was not ready until 4:30, later than the hotel's own "guaranteed" deadline, which caused us some difficulties as we were travelling with children and arriving from far away. Despite the Hotel's guarantee check in time, there is no clear guarantee policy and it is up to your negotiation skills and patience or the graciousness of the hotel staff to offer you a just (or unjust) resolution. Customer service staff need some polishing to handle such requests and the tone could be more sympathetic. August 6, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by Kennyboy Third time stay not always a charm room 461 We love the Hotel, the reason for the not so favorable ratings are explained below. Long wait upon arrival for check in. The room was extremely hot upon arrival had to get the AC fixed, as well the toilet was not functioning properly which was also fixed. At night there was a annoying vibration that reminded me of someone's cell phone going off, which occurred throughout the night. The last situation involved the service at the bar, the we had to flag down the waitress and then she left due shift over. So no one came by afterwards to ask us if we needed anything, once again had to flag someone down to get our bill. She indicated that she was under the impression everything was taken care of according to her communication with her fellow staff member that had left due to shift change. September 3, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by sterlingzinc Check the Village Board Before Booking.. So, just got back from two weeks in Europe on business, took the family up to BM for the weekend - drove right up from the airport. Took a Mountain side room because it is fall and nobody is up there. Nice quiet relaxing, sleep in. HA!!! Little did I know that 630am each morning the Centurian Bike Ride would start and finish right outside my window. Nothing like the sound of Blaring Music and Loud Speakers placed right outside your window 4,000 riders, each of them named through the loudspeakers!!! September 19, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by wombat17 Great Hotel We stayed at Trillium House during the Christmas break and thoroughly enjoyed every minute of our stay. It was lovely to cozy up in front of the fire after walking around the village, seeing all the Christmas sights. We stayed here during the summer also and both visits were so enjoyable. You have such great friendly staff and the room was perfect in every way. We will be back for sure and would not hesitate to recommend this property to our friends. Thanks again Westin for a heavenly stay! December 27, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by kman2014 Great family getaway! spacious accomodations and lots of family fun right at your doorstep. July 28, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by SunnyTraveller Very comfortable spot to live for two weeks! I was very happy with my room and my stay at the Westin Trillium, while I did some work in the area. I loved the size of the room, the kitchenette, the bed and the view of the Blue Mountain Village. There was a bathroom door that didn't close, and the bathroom fan didn't work, which I mentioned to the staff, but I believe that they didn't want to disturb me to fix it. The facilities are fabulous with the outdoor hot tubs and a short walk from the village. I would return to this hotel. December 10, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by DG0519 Hotel is Worth the Visit! My wife and I recently stayed at the Westin Trillium House Collingwood. It was a great stay! Staff is excellent, location is ideal and hotel amenities are fantastic! My only disappointment was the Work Out Facility was under construction and I was not informed when we booked. I usually take advantage of the New Balance work out gear loan program but had to leave the hotel to use a nearby gym. This was a minor inconvenience and overall the stay was incredible. Highly recommended hotel! December 18, 2012
Rated 3 out of 5 by Toats74 Would have expected a bit more First time staying at the Westin at Blue Mountain. Hotel is nice and clean. Staff were very friendly. The one bedroom suite was nicely stocked. The fridge however made a squeaking noise that would come and go, but kept us up. The only other complaint I would have is the pullout. I have stayed on many pullouts over the years, but this was by far the most uncomfortable. Anyone over 150lbs will have springs digging into their body. I would have expected better quality from the Westin. August 11, 2012
Rated 3 out of 5 by Molson986 Weekend Stay Was disappointed in the comfort of the bed, kept feeling I was falling off the edge, big hump in the middle. The TV was stressful, didn't always work had to call maintenance, didn't really fix it. Hotel was not as good as my stay at the Ottawa Westin. My room for 2 nights was $620.00, at that cost I expect more July 7, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by SvendsenJr Great Hotel, Location and Facilities Stayed at Westin Trillium House, from July 26-28 in One-bedroom Suite. The room was huge, clean and had own balcony with view over the mountains. Large bedroom and very nice livingroom with sofa-bed. Really nice pool and hot-tub. 5min walk to Acitivity Central (Mini Golf, Gondola, Segway-Tours, Mountain Coaster etc.. Only "bad" thing about our room, it was next to the stairway/emergency exit on 4th floor. Some people used the stairway insead of elevator which was a bit noisy. July 29, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by NotTooBad Regular SPG user Good location Good hotel but not excellent and not 5+ Worth while if there are special pricing but not worth their full price. Good for a 3+ hotel July 21, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by PhoenixRising2012 Good hotel and great location The only reason why this hotel is not a 5 star overall rating is due to the fact that our air conditioning didn't work in the room. However, the weather was so nice that we were able to keep the window open. The room was great, but the real plus is the location of the hotel in the blue mountains and within walking distance of the village. The grounds have a little bit for visitors young and old, so you're definitely going to have something to do and enjoy on your visit. July 31, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by geehosaphat Nice room, good location Enjoyed our one night stay, will stay again, clean, well maintained, comfortable. Did not however appreciate noisy delivery trucks in the back of hotel,in the morning. July 18, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by HakunaMatatta Great Hotel I was very impressed with the hotel, although that has alot to do with the proximity to the village and all that has to offer as well. Hotel on it's own was Good and I think the Oliver & Bonacini restaurant is a Great feature of the resort. The beds and bedding are outstanding. I don't understand the lack of SPG recognition when the entire trip was booked through SPG?? Hot tub and pool an excellent feature also but the pay per use Wi-Fi ? really? in 2012..... no sense January 12, 2012

At This Time You'll Be Able To End up getting Extra And Superior blu ray player reviews Through A Lot Less Time And Effort
Connected TV penetration in North America and Western Europe will surge from just over 10% in 2011 to over 50% by 2017, according to ABI Research.
Blu-ray penetration is expected to have a similar progression, increasing from about 25% in Western Europe and North America in 2011 to over 76% by 2017 (standalone and game consoles included). Meanwhile, game console penetration rates by 2017 are only expected to pass 61% and 46% in North America and Western Europe respectively, with rates significantly lower in other regions.
There are four major connected click this link right here now: Connected TVs, Blu-ray players, game consoles and Smart set-top boxes (STBs). Senior analyst Michael Inouye comments, 'Most CE manufacturers (notably, Samsung and LG) use a common platform for Connected TVs and Blu-ray players. Microsoft and Nintendo play only in the game console market, while Smart STB leaders Apple and Roku don't compete in the other connected categories. Sony is unique is its participation in game consoles (PS3), connected TVs, Blu-ray players, and Smart STBs. In the TV and Blu-ray space Samsung and LG have been the most proactive at bringing connected features - for example, introducing new user interfaces that parallel the features first made popular by the game consoles.'
The spread of connectivity is not unique to mature markets, as OEMs in China, such as Skyworth and TCL, have also reported growing shipments of connected TVs. In many regards the TV is the most natural device to access connected services and content - there is no need, for instance, to change the video input when accessing online content. In primary survey studies consumers have also placed the connected TV as the most desired device to receive Internet content on the main screen. Despite this growth, however, one device type will not command the market, placing greater emphasis on the overall ecosystem.
Inouye added, 'The early connectivity lead enjoyed by the game consoles will continue to wane, but this does not mean these devices will become integrated into the TV. The 8th generation of consoles will offer a boost to the industry, placating core gamers with new hardware while expanding the device's role as the central media hub through complementary media and services. Game consoles will be de-throned as the most connected CE device, but they may remain the most relevant.'
These findings are part of ABI Research's Consumer Electronics Research Service which includes additional Competitive Analyses, Vendor Matrices, Market Data, and Insights.

Brooklyn Nets forward Kris Humphries was in the middle of taking a foul shot during the fourth quarter of Wednesday night's NBA game against the Toronto Raptors when it was blocked, which is strange enough. What makes it even stranger, however, is that the shot was blocked by a referee. Referee Courtney Kirkland came in to prevent the foul shot by Humphries in order to allow a late substitution by the Raptors. Aside from the fact that we've never seen a referee block a shot before, we have to wonder - why didn't Kirkland simply use his whistle in this situation? In the end, the Nets beat the Raptors 94-88.

PHARE was a European Union funding initiative aimed at assisting the countries of Central Europe with economic restructuring, in some cases as a prelude to EU membership.
The European Union takes decisions in three separate 'domains' (policy areas), also known as the three 'pillars' of the EU. The first pillar is the 'Community domain', covering most of the common policies, where decisions are taken by the 'Community method' – involving the Commission, Parliament and the Council. The second pillar is the common foreign and security policy, where the Council alone takes decisions. The third pillar is 'police and judicial cooperation in criminal matters', where – once again – the Council takes the decisions. Within the first pillar, the Council normally takes decisions by 'qualified majority' vote. In the other pillars, the Council decision has to be unanimous: it can therefore be blocked by the veto of any one country. If the Council so decides, it can use the 'Community bridge' to transfer certain matters from the third to the first pillar.
Partners of a grant beneficiary participate in designing and implementing the action, and the costs they incur are eligible in the same way as those incurred by the grant beneficiary. They must therefore satisfy the same eligibility criteria as beneficiaries.
Pre-accession assistance helps the countries that are candidates for membership of the European Union to satisfy the accession conditions (the Copenhagen criteria). Considerable investment is required if the candidate countries are to bring their institutions and standards in line with the Community acquis and to be able to meet their obligations as Member States. Pre-accession assistance to the candidate countries is a key factor in the Union's pre-accession strategy and is determined by the accession partnerships. For the period 2007 – 2013, the Instrument for Pre-accession Assistance (IPA) will be the sole funding vehicle, replacing the pre-accession instruments. The IPA is made up of five components: support for transition and institution building, cross-border cooperation, regional development, human resources development and rural development.
The pre-accession strategy offers a "structured dialogue" between the candidate countries and the EU institutions throughout the accession process, providing all the parties with a framework and the necessary instruments. It is laid down for each candidate country individually. The pre-accession strategy follows on from the European Council of Luxembourg (December 1997) during which a reinforced pre-accession strategy for the ten Central and Eastern European candidate countries was launched. It is essentially based on: the bilateral agreements; the accession partnerships and the national programmes for the adoption of the acquis; participation in Community programmes, agencies and committees; political dialogue; the evaluation of the Commission ("monitoring"); pre-accession assistance; cofinancing by international financial institutions (IFI). In addition to these main instruments, the pre-accession strategy may include others for individual candidates, depending on their particular circumstances.
Pre-requisites that must be met before starting the project. Pre-conditions (if there are any) are annexed to the articles on Aid.
Studies carried out during the Identification Phase where all the problems are identified, alternative solutions produced and quality factors evaluated; a single option is then decided upon. Pre-feasibility studies should provide sufficient information to enable the European Commission and the partner country in their future evaluations to accept, modify or refuse the proposed project.
A structural examination identifying the negative aspects of a situation within a cause-and-effect relationship.
A diagrammatic representation of the cause-and-effects of a negative situation.
A series of projects with a common basic objective.
The first stage of a project cycle when the Indicative Programme is prepared. (See "Indicative Programmes.")
These are periodical intermediate reports, prepared by the project management/contractor and submitted to the European Commission and the partner institution, regarding the advancement of the project activities and works. They reflect the technical and financial performance of the project and are usually prepared every three months.
A series of activities/works with a specific purpose and target, planned to achieve a result within a designated period.
The cycle comprises all the phases of a project from the first idea all the way through to its completion. The project cycle provides a structure that ensures the project plan is shared with its consulted stakeholders; it describes all important decisions, information and responsibilities during each phase, so that, in the realisation of the project, all parties are aware of any decisions made. Experience gained from the results can be used in planning future programmes and projects.
A method based on the logical framework approach and the integral approach, which is used in the preparation of projects and programmes, their implementation and evaluation.
The main intention or goal of a project. The project purpose should address the main or essential problem and be described in terms of sustainable benefits for its target group(s). It should also aim to create equal and fair results for both women and men within the target group. Each project must have only one purpose.

13/30 - Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern
I loved this ... right up until the end. It was so exquisitely detailed I could see everything in my head throughout the entire book. The Midnight Dinners, the circus tents themselves, just everything was described in such great detail.
The ending was just ehhh. I don't know what happened. It's like the author was in a hurry and didn't know how to wrap it up. Up until about 90% in, I was completely absorbed, and then it just fell apart. I would love to see this as a movie (but with a slightly altered ending).
3.5/5 stars
I don't know what I'll read next. I'm waitlisted for a bunch of stuff at the library - hopefully something good will come through soon!

#s 27, 28, and 29 down and done.
#27 - The World According to Clarkson, Volume Three, For Crying Out Loud by Jeremy Clarkson. For anyone who's been driven to wonder just what is the matter with people these days, this is the perfect riposte. Surprising, fearless, and always laugh-out-loud funny, Clarkson's back. And he's got a point...
#28 - The Kingdom Keepers, Book V - Shell Game by Ridley Pearson. As the Kingdom Keepers enter high school, everything is about to change. As guests on the maiden voyage of the Disney Dream through the Panama Canal, the KKs are again charged with keeping the Overtakers (Disney villians and their recruits, distinguished by their emerald green eyes) from establishing their own evil kingdom within the Happiest Place on Earth. Warning! The ending is a cliff-hanger, practically guaranteeing that you must read Volume VI - Dark Passage.
#29 - Florida Heat by Rainy Kirkland. OK, I admit it. I only started reading this because it was a free Kindle download and because it was written by a dear childhood friend. Well, I was pleasantly surprised! Living in Central Florida (where I live!), best friends Jo (a probation officer) and Kate (a Sheriff's Office detective) often work on overlapping cases. Their current cases, however, are particularly nasty: a missing child and his murdered father. As they follow lead after lead with no results, the friends pick up new cases, which turn out to be connected with the child and his father
When I started this book, I wasn't very impressed but I vowed to finish it because I wanted to arrange to meet my friend for lunch and I couldn't face her if I hadn't completed the book. Well, I'm VERY glad I finished it. It was a good story, well-crafted and characters well developed. WARNING though: It's another cliff-hanger! I have to buy her next book to find out what happened!

Book #34 The Confessions of Queen Cinderella by Anton Hur
Review: This book was such a waste of time and Kindle space. The concept could have been good. Years after Cinderella has married Charming,their country is under siege and at war. Cinderella is held in exile and her journal tells of how her life had been before and after the famed ball and is reflective. Now, this alone caught my attention but reading it was a different story.
Ok, let's start off that I felt that the book was not written with a conclusion in mind. The journal is supposed to be on the thoughts of Cinderella and how the fairy tale was not true but I found the writing to be disjointed, repetitive and dull. It dragged on and was just tedious. There is really no plot to speak of until more than halfway through the story and it felt rushed.
I do not feel that the story was well-written and it didn't go anywhere. Some reviews have mentioned that there was some philosophy in 'Confessions' but I found this to be uninteresting and only made me see that Cinderella as a useless consort.

14/30 - A Smudge of Gray by Jonathan Sturak
Thank goodness this was a freebie. I've been working on reading it for a while now and finally decided today to power through it. UGH. The storyline was interesting enough, but it started getting unbelievable in every sense of the word towards the end. I nearly gave up, but I had to find out how it ended ... I wish I had just given up.
In other words, don't bother!

Leaving Everything Most Loved by Jacqueline Winspear, is the latest in Winspear's Maisie Dobbs series.
In her latest case, Maisie is hired by an Indian businessman to investigate the death of his sister, who was in England employed as a governess to the children of a diplomat who had been posted to India. Mr Pramal feels that Scotland Yard has not been very proactive in their investigation, believing that one dead Indian woman in London is very much like another.
As Maisie conducts her investigation with the help of her assistants Billy and Sandra, she begins to have second thoughts about continuing her career and marrying James, the son of the aristocratic family for whom she worked many years ago as a maid. James' mother, the forward-thinking Lady Rowan, recognized a rare intelligence in the child Maisie and undertook to sponsor her education, from primary school through university.
As the investigation wraps up, Maisie must make several life-changing decisions: should she close her agency, putting Billy and Sandra out of work? Should she marry James? Should she succumb to her desire to travel, with a new-found special focus on India?
I love this series, one of three (I think) written by this author. The time frame in history interests me very much (the years between the two world wars), and Windspear is an excellent writer. I highly recommend this author and series; I would suggest that they be read in order as later books refer to events and people in earlier books.

#25 done - a YA book that DS just finished and told me to read - "I Am the Messenger" by Markus Zusak (author of "The Book Thief")

Book #28 "The Kingdom Keepers 5: Shell Game" by Ridley Pearson
I'm not going to review this book, as it was reviewed just a couple of days ago. I will say that I really enjoyed this book! This was darker and more tense than any of the other books. I can't wait for the next (last) book to be released! Does anyone know when that will be?
Next book: ??? I have 3 on hold at the library, but none have come in, yet. I suppose I could go back to "Team of Rivals", but I really haven't been enjoying it. So, I put it down for weeks at a time. I suppose I'll find something.

Book #18
Chasing Windmills by Catherine Ryan Hyde
Amazon description:
From the bestselling author of Pay It Forward comes a provocative and unlikely love story that starts on a New York subway car and blossoms under the windmills of the Mojave Desert.Both Sebastian and Maria live in worlds ruled by fear. Sebastian, a lonely seventeen-year-old, is suffocating under his dominant father's control; Maria, a young mother of two, is trying to keep peace at home despite her boyfriend's abuse. When their eyes meet across a subway car one night, these two strangers find a connection that neither can explain or ignore. They dream of a new future and agree to run away together, only to find that each has kept a major secret from the other. In this tremendously moving novel, Catherine Ryan Hyde shows us how two people trapped by life's circumstances can break free and find a place in the world where love is genuine and selfless.
My thoughts:
This book could not have come into my life at a more opportune moment. It practically jumped out at me from the library shelf, as I was walking through the aisle.
This author is extremely intuitive (or possibly experienced?) when it comes to the psyche of damaged people.
When I got the book, I did not realize that she had also written Pay It Forward (I only saw the movie version of that one).
While two very different stories, she once again manages to balance tragedy with the ability to keep living life.
5/5 is my rating on this one.

26/50: THE TRUTH ABOUT YOU AND ME by Amanda Grace
Smart girls aren't supposed to do stupid things.
Madelyn Hawkins is super smart. At sixteen, she's so gifted that she can attend college through a special program at her high school. On her first day, she meets Bennet. He's cute, funny, and kind. He understands Madelyn and what she's endured—and missed out on—in order to excel academically and please her parents. Now, for the first time in her life, she's falling in love.
There's only one problem. Bennet is Madelyn's college professor, and he thinks she's eighteen—because she hasn't told him the truth.
The story of their forbidden romance is told in letters that Madelyn writes to Bennet—both a heart-searing ode to their ill-fated love and an apology.
This YA was so good, I could not stop reading. I read it in a few hours and cried at the end.

#29 Her Mother's Hope by Francine Rivers
5 plus stars!
In 1901 Marta (Swiss) at age 12 is pulled out of school (even tho she is the top student in the entire school) by her father to begin a life of hard work. First she works with local merchants then off to Germany to a housekeeping school, then on to France, Canada & finally California where she settles with her German husband. So many trials & tribulations raising a family amid predjudice/WWII, sickness & so on. Very engrossing book, I could not put it down.
I had forgotten just how good an author Francine Rivers is. Now on to the sequel 'Her Daughter's Dream'

Book 27 of 100 - Vision in White (Bride Quartet #1) by Nora Roberts
Summary by Goodreads:
Wedding photographer Mackensie "Mac" Elliot is most at home behind the camera, but her focus is shattered moments before an important wedding rehearsal when she bumps into the bride-to-be's brother...an encounter that has them both seeing stars.
A stable, safe English teacher, Carter Maguire is definitely not Mac's type. But a casual fling might be just what she needs to take her mind off bridezillas. Of course, casual flings can turn into something more when you least expect it. And Mac will have to turn to her three best friends-and business partners-to see her way to her own happy ending.
These are a re-read for me. If I need a quick get away, easy read, I pick up this series. I am also trying to do a lot of re-reading to save on the book budget! We like to buy way too many books!

Finished #15 out of 50:
The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini
This story takes place in Afghanistan and is about a young boy, Amir, who betrays his best companion, Hassan, by not coming to his aid when bullies attack. To deal with his guilt, he arranges to have Hassan and his father sent away which only serves to cause more grief and heartbreak. Amir moves to America when the Taliban begin to rise to power, and through circumstances as an adult learns the truth of his family, travels back to Afghanistan, and comes face to face with his guilt, slowly finding a way to redemption.
A beautiful & poignant story. I can't say that it is one of the best books I've read, but it held my interest and it touched my heart.

15/30 - Rolling Down Black Stockings - A Passage Out of the Old Order Mennonite Religion by Esther Royer Ayers
This is a memoir. I downloaded it from the library, hoping I would enjoy it as much as I did Growing Up Amish by Ira Wagler - I read that last year.
The problem with this book is that for me, it didn't go enough into detail about the Mennonite religion/culture/practices as I would have liked it to, and the details that were given were colored by the author's general dislike for some of them. It read more like a biography of her life - very little information was given about the history of Mennonites or their ways.
It was still interesting, but it wasn't what I had hoped it would be.

The specimens were found in 2012 at a derelict flat in Main Street, Castlederg, Co Tyrone.
Announcing the discovery on Thursday, the 20th anniversary of Arlene's murder, Detective Superintendent Karen Baxter said: "I would ask that any woman who was in this flat, at 49a Main Street which has since been demolished, at any time to make contact with police."
Arlene Arkinson, who was 15 years old, was last seen in the early hours of 14 August 1994. She disappeared after a night out in Bundoran, Co Donegal and her body was never found.
Convicted child killer Robert Howard, who was the last person seen with her, stood trial in 2005 accused of her murder, but was found not guilty.
Police said tests have confirmed that the blood specimens discovered two years ago do not belong to the missing girl, but are from two different women.
Neither of them are registered on the national DNA database.
D/Superintendent Baxter continued: "They have a story to tell and we want to hear it. Their assistance could be beneficial to the investigation."
Police added that they will be carrying out a number of land searches across Tyrone and other areas in the coming months as part of efforts to find Arlene's remains and further the investigation.
A man has also been interviewed in England.
D/Superintendent Baxter said: "While we acknowledge the pain this causes to Arlene's family, police alone cannot solve this case or find Arlene. It is only with the help of the public that the person responsible will be brought to justice and the Arkinson family will find any degree of comfort.
"Arlene's family is being kept informed of these developments.
"We understand as much as we can their continuing grief and frustration. We will continue to do our utmost to bring this to a conclusion within an extremely complex investigative environment and diminishing opportunities. We would ask anyone with information to come forward."
Information can be passed to the PSNI by calling the special incident room on 028 7137 9783.

I worked at Macy's part-time (less than an year)
Easy to get hired, fun environment if you like working with people. Very flexible shifts make it easy to work here as a part time second job type of situation. Training was good, and management was friendly, at least at the North Park Mall location where I worked.
Very little support during your first shifts on the sales floor during the Christmas shopping season. Several times, I had issues that I did not yet know how to handle, and when I would look around for a senior associate to ask questions of, there was often no one to be found. Also, seniors took over the sales that I initiated! By that, I mean, I was showing an expensive watch to a gentleman, and as he was handing it to me to make the purchase, suddenly the lady I was working with, who was a full time employee, decided to "help me", meaning that she rang up the sale under her employee number and got the credit for it. I was told that I'd be in Watches, but if the regular employees wanted to do watches, they would send me to scarves or purses or some area that would not likely have many purchases for Christmas.
Provide more assistance to new hires during their first 20 hours as a sales associate. If you assign an associate to a particular area, make sure that the seasoned employees don't get to over-ride your decision!

Some people are nice and,since most employees are unhappy here , it makes for a "misery loves company" atmosphere.Cons
Terrible base pay and if you are commissioned (very few areas are) the commission is usually a whopping 1%. I witnessed associates practically kill each other to get a sale. Management looks the other way. Also, only thing that matters is bottom line-an associate who is loud, unprofessional, etc. is praised as long as she sells.
Store is very dirty, especially bathrooms.

MU Closed Wednesday
With the forecast of "a wintry mix changing to snow," Millersville University has decided to close the campus for Wednesday, November 26. It is important to note that ALL classes will be held, as scheduled, the remainder of today and tonight. Only essential personnel are to report on Wednesday.
Have a safe and enjoyable Thanksgiving.
Faculty Research Interests
Dr. John Dooley
DR. JOHN W. DOOLEY Before coming to Millersville, Dr. Dooley was an undergraduate student at an urban university in Detroit, a post-doctoral fellow at a university in upstate New York, and an assistant professor at an urban university in Brooklyn.
His training is in ultrasonic investigation of electronic properties of matter, at cryogenic temperatures. His teaching is primarily in the freshman and sophomore year physics major classes. His interest is currently in the development of experiments to demonstrate aspects of physics that people are ordinarily required to take on faith.
The experiments show that Newton's third law is a precursor to Newton's second law, that light energy is quantized, that sound energy in a solid is quantized, that both sound and light are waves, that light travels slower in water than in a vacuum, and that the clocks on high speed objects "run slow."
He has measured the distance to the moon with a meter stick and carpenter's square, and has a student attempting to determine if a purported demonstration of photon radiation pressure does what it claims to do. His current ambition is to build a tabletop experiment to show that the earth rotates.

Where is your favorite place to go for great mussels/trites? (for great frites as I like them better than the mussels)?
Also, we will be staying near Queen West....what restaurants would you recommend for dinner? Not looking for chi-chi, but comfortable, relaxed, maybe bistro type place, any type of food except asian.
re: tbonetak
I've never been, but does the drake fit the bill? I hear good things about certain dishes (e.g. burger). that's for the second request, by the way. I don't eat moules frites too often as I make moules at home pretty regularly.
Had a great Moules-Frites at La Palette in Kensington Market on Sunday, but I'm not sure if it's a regular on their menu. It's a nice, no attitude French bistro though.
On Queen West, if you're looking for lunch or an early dinner, check out The Prague. (www.theprague.ca) Awesome, down home eastern european fare. My favourite is the beef in Sauerbraten sauce but the Gypsy Goulash is also pretty awesome. As are the pierogies and Palacinky Florentine.
I'm quite a fan of the mussels and frites at Beerbistro. The Belgian White and Quack Kwak are my favourite. And the fries...oh the fries! Even more delicious when you dip them into the cheese fondue! '-)
re: pinkprimp
According to a separate post, the BeerBistro is closed for renovation now. Not sure when the OP is coming to town but may want to keep that in mind.
re: cecilia
Wait, I'll answer in a moment...have to wipe the drool after reading cecilia's remark about BeerBistro's fries. We will be in Toronto the weekend of 10/18. Think BeerBistro will be open by then?
re: synergy
They just reopened today (October 9), according to their website!
re: pinkprimp
The mussels and frites at Starfish are best in the city!! Hands down.
re: millygirl
I've read some up/down reviews on this board for Starfish recently, that has made me think twice about it. Millygirl, have you been there, and if so, what are your thoughts about it? (I love fish). Do you have their web site?
re: synergy
I would have linked to the place link above if I could.
re: JamieK
Thanks so much JamieK!
re: synergy
Hi Synergy, yes I have been there and have had their mussels and frites - numerous times. Otherwise how could I recommend it? Oh alright, I suppose some folks do do that kind of thing, strangely enough. Anyways I digress. Yes the reviews are inconsistent. And I must admit the service can be sketchy, but for the most part we haven't had a problem and I stand by what I say - their frites especially are awesome!!! Check it out - the place has a nice vibe to it. They also do great daily chowders. I've had a few fish dishes and they were good but we prefer to have some oysters, an appetizer and then either mussels or steak and frites. Steak is excellent also!
re: millygirl
Thanks Millygirl. I will definitely make a reservation there. And thanks for letting me know about the steak since one of our friends does not eat fish, so Starfish will be perfect.
And yes, sometimes I read posts from folks that make recommendations about places they've heard good things about without having been there themselves. <shrug> . No insult mean at all to you millygirl.
re: synergy
Hey synergy, I realized after reading your post again that you are visiting T.O. Welcome! I think you'll be happy at Starfish. Like I said, the vibe is really nice and bistro like. So will you have the opportunity to dine anywhere else while you are here? Please keep us posted, and let me know what you think of Starfish. If you can, try and book a window table. It's nice to check out the action on the street and park across the road. Have a great time!
re: millygirl
Millygirl, yes we are visiting next weekend, for a long weekend. I LOVE TO and have been many times. I like it so much I could live in TO (live in NYC). We already have reservations at our favorites: Chiado (for our anniversary dinner), Wai Lah Heen (which I always go to for dim sum when visiting) and JK Wine Bar (I've been once already, husband has been 2-3 times).
re: pinkprimp
Wow, what timing! Looks like a great place to scratch the itch for good pub food that's above the rest.
Any suggestions for where else to go for more traditional style mussels'/frites jor Belguim style?
re: synergy
You can also try Le Petit Dejeuner on King near Jarvis. Check their hours though, sometimes they open for dinner, sometimes only until the mid afternoon.
re: currycue
Thanks currycue. Would you have their web site and I can check their menu and hours?
re: synergy
No worries. It's www.lapalette.ca
re: currycue
Thanks currycue! Alas, no mussels/frites on their dinner menu :-(
re: synergy
Yeah, sorry, I think it was on their specials menu at the restaurant. They did it with a tomato wine sauce and chorizo to give it some kick. Very good stuff.
re: pinkprimp
I walked by last night and Beer Bistro appear to be back up to shape. The suits were definitely unwinding in there....
Their mussels menu is great, they offer something like 8-10 versions if I recall.
re: synergy
No, it is listed on the dinner menu.
Thanks everyone - you have all been so helpful. Starfish it is - have a reservation. Will report back.
Cafe Brussels near broadview and danforth is pretty good...I'm partial to the Moules au Noilly Prat
re: Finnegan
Sadly, Cafe Brussels closed a few years ago. Globe Bistro is in that spot now.
Why their website is still accessible is a mystery.
re: JamieK
I used to like their sunday brunch...great chocolate waffles. Sad to here's it's gone
Thanks again to everyone. We ended up at Starfish. I did have the mussels & frites there. Mussels were ok, but the frites were fantastic!!! Loved the rosemary with them. Service was very good. We went on a Monday night and the bar was hopping with folks eating oysters. One person with us doesn't eat fish at all and there was only 1 non-fish item on the menu. Husband had halibut which was very good. Thanks again to everyone for your recommendations with my original post.
