I'm considering bringing a crew into the city Friday afternoon. I haven't been to Spruce Street Harbor Park yet. Can anyone comment on the food at the Blue Anchor? I'm wondering about quality and an approximate price for their burgers, as I would need to communicate that info in advance. Thanks!

What are the most romantic restaurants in central and western Montgomery County?
I was at Parc Bistro many years ago. I really enjoyed it, but my palate was much less refined than it is now. How do you rate their food?
What are the most romantic restaurants in central and western Montgomery County?
I was very unimpressed with dinner at William Penn, but we loved their brunch.
I've heard others recommend desserts from Wegman's. I need to check them out.
This is my kind of discussion! I look forward to reading the responses.
I love the vanilla bean cheesecake at The Cheesecake Factory.
Puerto Jarocho on Marshall St in Norristown has delicious and inexpensive tres leches that they sell by the slice.
Zwahlen's in Audubon has delicious ice cream. I've heard their chocolates are good as well, but I've never tried them.
Two years ago we went to Zacharias Creek Side Cafe in Worcester for dessert one night, and we had some tasty desserts. I can't remember the details of what we ordered, and I have no idea if they still have the same pastry chef. It's a nice atmosphere, and they didn't seem to mind that we came in just for dessert.
Pumpernick's in Montgomeryville is a Jewish deli that has some tasty desserts. They inspired me to create my own cheesecake topped with chocolate mousse.
I don't know if is technically dessert, but the pain au chocolat at Alice in North Wales is amazing. I can't vouch for any of their other pastries or chocolates because I'm obsessed with the pain au chocolat and have no interest in expanding my horizons. We really enjoy the breads we've purchased from them as well.

bakeries or restaurants for dessert in the evening?
Great ideas. Thanks, everyone!

bakeries or restaurants for dessert in the evening?
I was just looking at Philly dessert threads and noticed that most of the discussions are two or more years old, so I thought I would start a new one. I'm wondering what places would you recommend for a sit down dessert on a Friday night. A friend just asked me for recommendations, and I realized that many of my favorite dessert options aren't available in the evening.

Hmmm... I guess we'll have to watch and see what happens. Clearly even the big names like Garces are not immune to the new restaurant struggles.
Jan 14, 2014pbplus in Philadelphia
So... maybe I should try Alma sometime, but I shouldn't expect it to take care of my Cuban food craving.
Jan 13, 2014pbplus in Philadelphia
Oops! Sorry for asking a question that had already been answered! The thread didn't fully load the first time, so it showed me the original message without any replies. Now I can see the discussion.
Can you be any more specific on the "not cheap" comment? I'm interested in checking it out, but I'm frustrated that they don't appear to have a website where I can get a sense of their ambiance and prices.
I've been to Cuba Libre for Sun brunch but haven't tried Alma de Cuba. Do you like it? I've seen mixed reviews and didn't want to be disappointed.
I wish I had the time and money to fly to Miami, stuff myself with Cuban food for a few days, and get this craving out of my system.
Thanks for detailed review. I'll definitely avoid the juices!
I love Tierra Colombiana, but we always go with our South American friends and order Colombian food. I thought about trying their Cuban offerings, but I was hesitant because I wasn't happy with the Cuban food we ordered at Mixto, its sister restaurant. Maybe I should try it.
The Dandelion Pub was Fantastic!
I'm not French. I simply wish I were. I haven't been to France for a few years, but if my memory serves me right, Alice in North Wales has the most authentic baguette and pain au chocolat that I've had in the US. They have some other delicious breads as well.
I just learned about the new Rosa Blanca restaurant by the Garces group. Has anyone checked it out yet? I've been craving some Ropa Vieja for a while and haven't found a Cuban restaurant in the area yet that makes one I like. I'm also open to opinions on other Cuban restaurants in Philly if anyone has a favorite spot or dish.
Vernick Food and Drink - has anyone been there?
I think you're absolutely right about not basing anything on one visit. When we were at Vernick on a Friday night in June, we sat by the window upstairs and had a peaceful, quiet meal. Evidently, we shouldn't base our future expectations on that one visit though.

Vernick Food and Drink - has anyone been there?
For those still searching this board for info about Vernick, I want to share that my husband and I went there for the first time last night to celebrate our 14th wedding anniversary. The experience was wonderful. The food was delicious. I would go back in a heartbeat. I highly recommend it!

family friendly dinner in or around Ocean City, NJ
We're headed to Ocean City for 2 days and really don't know the area at all. On our last night, we want to take the kids out to dinner either in town or on the way back toward Philadelphia. I've searched this board and the internet generally and have not found much discussion about dinner options in the area. Most of the recommended places are only breakfast/lunch options. Our kids appreciate good food, and we don't take them out for dinner often, so I'd really like to find something we'll all enjoy. We'll be coming off the beach, so I'm not looking for fancy - just good food. Does anyone have any suggestions?

I'm intrigued by what I've read about Tara. I wish they had a website! Is it more casual or fine dining? Can you give me an idea of what it would cost for 2 to have dinner with wine?

These options look great. Thanks, everyone! I love having a variety of casual and fancier options.
On the casual end, has anyone been to Hickory Kitchen in Doylestown? I came across their menu earlier and don't know anything about it.
searching for Upper Bucks restaurant inspiration
My parents live in upper Bucks County, and I'm always looking for gift ideas for them. Restaurant gift cards are something my mom appreciates, but I'm stuck on ideas in the Doylestown / Souderton / Quakertown area.
Here's the big problem: I'm looking for fresh, good quality food but nothing too exotic. While Maize in Perkasie and Honey in Doylestown would be fun for me, my mom would have a tough time finding options she'd like on their menus. Then she'd lament the high cost of the meal.
Can anyone recommend simple, tasty, not-too-pricey restaurant options in upper Bucks County?

If the list represents the usual suspects, it overlaps a lot with my local market. I might still check it out sometime, but I'm not sure it's worth the extra driving. Let me know what you think.
Though I do love any excuse to buy pain au chocolat from Alice. My mouth waters just thinking about it!

fun family dinner in Jim Thorpe/Allentown area
Trip report: After a wonderful day exploring, we went to Roadies at Penn's Peak. We had made a reservation for dinner on the deck, so we enjoyed a beautiful view while we dined. As previously mentioned, the food was typical pub fare. We all order sandwiches. Everything we tried was tasty, and the prices were very reasonable. It's not fine dining, but it's a fun way to unwind after a day outdoors. I would definitely recommend it to others. Thanks, teddybare!
I don't have any pictures of our meal, but here's the view from the deck.

Claymore/Clear Global Timber Index (NYSEMKT:CUT)
Timber is an interesting world with the ability to hold of on harvesting a crop until the price is high enough to make it worth it. While they hold off, it grows at a nearly 10% annual rate. Thus, there are more unrealized profits.
The other interesting thing about timber is their net income ends up being higher, as they can take Long term gains on the timber since it has "been inventory for the long term".
This ETF does not track timber commodity, but the companies that business derives from timber. Some are skeptical on whether holdings are acurate enough to show the good side of timber. Weyerhauser is the largest holding.

All the Wild Children, by Josh Stallings
I was mostly being polite. No, that's too bitchy-sounding. I'm not bitchy. I was being friendly. I was being reciprocal.
Polite has never paid so good.
I met Josh Stallings a few weeks ago and to say that he struck me as a singularly lovely person feels like damning him with faint praise. I spoke with him for maybe fifteen minutes over the conference weekend, but he left an impression, both of his own and of kindness towards other writers. He's cool. His personality edges out past his aura, maybe protecting that aura a little bit; a Russian nesting doll of warmth, enthusiasm, probably some hurt, and definitely some wisdom. You can tell that right away.
He said he liked my book. So I bought his most recent book.
I just finished it.
All the Wild Children might be the best memoir I've ever read.
I hope this recommendation gets somebody who reads this to go straightway to get the book, but let's get something out of the way, so that it doesn't come back on me later: In places, it's bawdy. In lots of places, really. Josh Stallings has very little trouble typing the sentences the way they come to him. There's cussing. There's sex. There's drug use. There's violence. But you won't catch me calling any of it profane, because it's beautiful and it's also beautifully honest. I loved this book.
Where you can identify with Stallings and all that he has done and all that he's seen (so far) and all that he's felt about those things, you will be either delighted or devastated. Where you can't identify, where adventure and heartbreak has taken him but not you, Josh Stallings' way with words and candor will make you think you almost can. It's not a wallow. It's everything but.
What I value very most in reading is a scratch to my greedy itch. I want more life. Josh Stallings gets that and makes a gift of his own experience. I'm a little bit wrecked this morning over it, but so, so grateful.
I am utterly lucky to have crossed his path with a little money in my pocket and room for one more book in the suitcase. This book is brilliant and I can't recommend it enough.
Close Encounters of The Lupine Kind
The first thing you should know about wildlife watching in Yellowstone is that the longer you stare at a buffalo, the less real it looks. It's a weird phenomenon. At the first glance, it's a lump-in-the-throat reverence for Nature and a pang of majestic appreciation set to rising violin music in your head.
But it's quickly doomed to go all snorts and giggles once you admit that on whatever day of creation that happened, God had surely woken up in a very Jim Henson mood.
Also note: Buffalo don't like to be laughed at. Or even looked at, really. They're very grumpy.
If you drive any distance at all through the park, you will see a buffalo in the first half hour, unless you're blindfolded for some Fifty Shades of Long Drives reason. By the minute hand's next full sweep, you will have seen sixty-seven of them and the bloom is rather off the rose. Then you will begin to resent everyone who hasn't figured this out yet. You will not be (or I will not be, anyway) kindly disposed toward all the yahoos compelled to stop for a photo of every buffalo on the horizon or, in fact, in the middle of the roadway. Honestly, they're like squirrels. Massive, walnut-brained, irritable squirrels.
Henceforth and forevermore, all pointless traffic stalls shall be known as Buffalo Jams.
So, you've got your buffalo and your pronghorn antelope. Elk are neat to see and only slightly less all over the place than the bison. And whatever you do, never dip your head or extend your hand, in any way – not even to point, at a chipmunk in Montana. This is the Universal Snack Sign and you will have a rodent scaling your leg faster than you can scream.
But what everyone really hopes to see is one of the big boys. The shaggy, toothy, razor-clawed showstoppers. That's what you're drifting all over the yellow line and drying out your eyeballs for – a glimpse of a grizzly bear or a wolf. And you may get one, though I didn't really. My cousin, Randall, says I'm a jinx. He could be right.
I did see both bears and wolves on our trek through Yellowstone, but at such a distance that I can only take the crowd's word for it. Even with binoculars, it might have been a very leggy tortoise. The lady next to me was somehow positive it was a bear, but whether that was wishful thinking or a degree in zoology, I'll never know. One roadside stop showed something dark definitely chasing a herd of elk. I'm not sure what would do that if not a wolf, so I'll go with that. I saw an inky blur that was probably a wolf deviling a collection of deer.
But I didn't leave the Wild West without a wolf encounter of my own. It inspired the only souvenir I brought home.
The story of wolves in Yellowstone is interesting . The short of it is that by 1940, every wolf in Yellowstone had been killed. Deemed a dangerous nuisance, it was perfectly acceptable to lace bait meat with poison or broken glass – and it worked down to the very last one. The eradication of wolves in Yellowstone caused problems that humans hadn't had the foresight to calculate. The elk population exploded to the detriment of the all the green in Yellowstone, cutting into the pasturing for the bison. Coyotes took over as the apex predator, mostly interested in much smaller game and people's pets. Mid-grade ecological chaos changed what the park had been meant to be.
So in 1994, the US Government put some wolves back into the park. You can read about the program here. Today, there are somewhere in the neighborhood of 140 wolves doing their wolfy thing and restoring wolfy balance to the region.
But, of course, there aren't any fences around Yellowstone.
On Day 8 of our adventure, we left through the west checkpoint and tucked our RV into a camp just outside the park exit in West Yellowstone, Montana. It was late in the day, so we backed in, hooked up, and walked into town for possibly the best pizza I've ever had in my life.
My daughters, 11 and 15, and I headed to the camp's bath house to wash off the day – rather later than usual. We came back out at around 10:20 pm, and it was as dark as night ever gets. Montana-black is, shall we say, comprehensive. The bath house had short-reaching floodlights that abandoned us in solid pitch after about ten steps.
Julia, my oldest, kept talking even after I'd stopped our walk, my hands flung out across both girls' middles. The wolves were so loud, she thought they were sirens. The pack happened to be unfortunately situated, by the sound of them, just on the other side of our camper. They were dead ahead of us, likely-but-not-certainly just beyond where we needed to go. And it was definitely a they, not a him, not a her, not a slightly-less-terrifying it all on its own. To get back, we had to march straight at a full-on choir practice with quite a number of distinct howly voices ringing in harmony.
I didn't have my phone, so my choices were to sleep in the bath house or to make a run for it. A quick bit of math noted that we were already a quarter of the way there and if we didn't come back, my husband would surely feel obligated to come out after us – with his back to the wolves and quite a bit closer to them, for a lot longer than we would have to be, and all by himself.
Wolves aren't known to be aggressive toward humans, especially humans in noisy groups. I tried to make a mantra of that terrific bit of trivia, but the howling was doing my head in. My littlest stuffed her towel into her mouth to keep from screaming. I put my hands on my girls and set off at a cheerfully chattering clip that I wouldn't allow to turn into a run until we were within a hundred feet of the RV.
The wolves sang us home, and at the slamming of the door I was aglow with the cavewoman's delight at not being someone else's dinner. I drank a beer. Then a nip of whiskey.
The next morning, I related the night's flight to the camp office.
"Was it… coyotes?" I asked, although I've heard coyotes in my own backyard and they sound nothing like that. And besides, an affirmative wouldn't be exactly reassuring. Given the choice between facing down a pack of wolves or a pack of coyotes, I think I'd rather go ice-skating.
"Oh no, that was wolves," she said.
"But they sounded as if they were right behind my RV."
"Oh they were…" because unbeknownst to me, just on the other side of the split-rail fence from our RV slot, was the Grizzly & Wolf Discovery Center, a rescue zoo and educational exhibit of animals that cannot, for one reason or another, be released into the wild. (It's a great place. Definitely a must-see if you're in the vicinity.)
I had been a mere stone's throw from three packs of wolves, howling in the dark – caged and harmless.
I don't know what color I turned. The lady helpfully drew a line, of sorts, under my humiliation.
"But I can't promise they were all in cages. The Yellowstone wolves come out to talk to our wolves all the time. But I'm sure you were fine."
The Secret Place, by Tana French
So the last time I talked about Tana French's books, I was delighted by the Möbius strip impossibility of ranking my favorite among her first four novels.
I'm equally delighted to take a scissor to the strip. Every one of Tana French's books is wonderful, but The Secret Place is just that little bit more so. Or rather, it's an extra heaping dose – on every page – of the things she does best.
The Secret Place brings back detective Stephen Moran and also Holly Mackey from Faithful Place, which draws the inevitable cameo of her da, Frank, who readers will remember with varying degrees of antipathy from both The Likeness and Faithful Place. (I, for the record, enjoy the hell out of Frank Mackey.)
The murder of young Chris Harper on the grounds of a girls' school is chilling – in at least two senses of the word. A beautiful, popular boy cut down in the moonlight freezes both the community and St. Kilda's faculty and students, but the case itself has also gone cold. That is, until Holly Mackey brings a card, pried from the school's confessional bulletin board, The Secret Place, to Stephen, the cop she chooses over her father to spark onto the year-old investigation. The card reads: I Know Who Killed Him.
The story takes place in a single day, with flashbacks into the tangles of teenage politics and crystalline glimpses of youth blooming into independence. Our narrator, Stephen, struggles on a tightrope, looking to wring every professional advantage from this gift of opportunity as its balanced against what's at risk for everyone involved. The mystery is cracking. The resolution is wrenching.
And still it's not the best part of the book.
That would be the writing. Tana French vaults everything she's done yet with jeweled tone and sparkling description to put the reader everywhere they need to be. Sometimes it's painful. I cried about seven times. But I full-on cheered once. Scared the hell out of my husband while he was driving.
Truly, The Secret Place is a wonderful book. It comes out September 2, 2014. Get it as soon as you can.
FitBit and the Death of Efficiency
I wonder how long I'll feel like a crazy person? I'm fighting the blooming of a new mantra, running from the illogical inevitability of my new motto:
Never Do In One Trip What You Can Drag Out Into Three.
I blame Stacy Allen and Dave Sedaris, and Mr.Sedaris only because he reminded me in his wonderful essay in The New Yorker after Stacy played the snake in the Garden a few months back. I could blame myself, but my very least favorite thing in all the world is anything being my fault.
My writer-friend, Stacy, and I roomed at SleuthFest in February, and she dangled the sleek little electronic jewel under my nose. Truthfully, I don't think the FitBit got any closer to me than the nightstand between our beds, but still, it's just one of those things you'll covet because of its tactile gloss and its sexy little rounded corners. My precioussss.
But then there's what it does – it counts steps and makes charts of them.
A little over a year and a half ago, my dream came true and, for now, I get to try to be a professional writer. I should be struck by lightning if I'm not thankful. And I am. For everything but the ten extra pounds.
You see, I have become a puppet of inertia. And if the body at rest has an excuse not to fight it, like say a real, grown-up deadline or paid research, then the mouth near the top of that body will say, "I have to sit here all day! I'm busy!" But that brand of busy will conspire with time and your fondness for 10pm snacks and it's not like your vanity has taken the year off. Just sayin'.
So the FitBit sits there, with its incessant little pressure against your shoulder or hip or wherever you've clipped it, reminding you that you've become a lump.
You can see it in the graphs on your FitBit.com dashboard – all the nothing your feet have been doing, all the gaps in the progress toward that daily goal and the digital pat on the head for vaulting that number.
Then you start doing crazy stuff like carrying each folded shirt, individually, from the laundry to the drawers. That's mental, but it's worth twenty extra steps per roundtrip. (And if you think I didn't just walk down there to count it off, you'd be wrong. I'm up about sixty steps for that sentence!) The flowers that I planted last weekend don't change every twenty minutes, but I know that for a fact, not just in concept. The chore of errands has been met in these last few days without dread simply for the prize at the end – the little counter going up and up and up. I pace when I brush my teeth.
I don't know how long it will last, this mania. And I don't know what I'll get to keep from it. But it has inspired me to drink herbal tea instead of crunching munchables in those last hours before bed, and now I hop onto the elliptical machine when I get a phonecall. (I was delighted to find that those steps count!) It feels good. I feel good.
The inertia-devil still lives here, but he seems to be sulking in some undusted corner of my house, although with as many points as I get for puttering, I don't know where he could be hiding.
I'll miss the habit when its gone, or maybe I won't. But right now, I kind of want to take a walk. That can't be a bad thing.
So. What I've been up to…
I'm very excited to be able to share the synopsis for my second novel, Monday's Lie, that Gallery Books has written up for its Spring 2015 catalog. It's wonderful to be working with them again and I'm utterly delighted to play in the crime fiction sandbox for another round.
Wish me luck!

Monday's Lie
From the acclaimed author of the "ripping good" (The New York Times) debut novel Three Graves Full comes a new thriller about a woman who digs into her unconventional past to confirm what she suspects: her husband wants her dead.
Dee Aldrich rebelled against her off-center upbringing when she married the most conventional man she could imagine: Patrick, her college sweetheart. But now, years later, her marriage is falling apart and she's starting to believe that her husband wants her gone…for good.
Haunted by memories of her late mother Annette, a former covert operations asset, Dee reaches back into her childhood to resurrect the lessons and "spy games" in which she learned memory tricks and, most importantly, how and when to lie. But just as she begins delving into her past to determine the course of the future, she makes a discovery that will change her life: the money that her mother left behind. Now, Dee must investigate her suspicions before it's too late and untangle conspiracy from coincidence, using her mother's advice to steer her through the blind spots. The trick, in the end, will be in discovering if a "normal life" is really what she wanted at all.
With pulse-pounding prose and atmospheric settings, Monday's Lie is a thriller that delivers more of the "Hitchcockian menace" (Peter Straub) that made Three Graves Full a critical hit. For fans of the Coen brothers or Alexander McCall Smith, this is a book you won't want to miss.
Wednesday's child is careful what she wishes for…
(originally posted March 8, 2009)
We ordered a pizza last night and my six year old went with me to pick it up. As I waited at the counter to pay, she asked me for a penny to throw into the fountain at the back of the restaurant.
I gave her one and then one extra, with instructions for a wish to be made on my behalf. I realize this is plainly against the wishing rules, but the rules, for all they're worth, haven't played it quite straight with me either. And besides, it made her a full inch taller, that mission, being in charge of my wish. I watched her tapping the coins together self-consciously as she slipped through the seated diners, seeing them twist in their chairs to smile at the way she doesn't quite acknowledge that there's anyone else in the room. She always looks like she wants to sparkle and be invisible all at the same time.
She came back to me, her nervous smirk a little tighter now that she was empty-handed and too old to finger-fidget in full view of everyone.
"I'll give you a hint about what I wished for," she said.
"Okay," I said, agreeing to risk jinxing it all for a glimpse into her guarded little clockworks.
"If I get it, I won't let it change who I am."
I would say "please", but I don't feel polite about this…
Many of you will know that this is a cause near to my heart. (In other words, near to the burning coal of fury otherwise known as my heart.)
A few months ago I had a very near miss at a head-on collision on the edge of a steep drop. I was nearly killed by a stupid, horrible, piece of shit of a man who is most likely a nice, decent, valuable part of his circle of loved ones. The difference is subtle – only a matter of a split second and thirty inches or so.
He was texting and driving and almost completely in my lane on a curve in a winding mountain road.
We missed colliding by a couple of feet.
This was one of three incidents in the last half year (that I've been aware of) of drivers texting behind the wheel in full view, close enough to become my business. I could see it because they drifted into my lane, or wobbled right by with their eyes on their phones, thumbs a-typin', steering with their knees, or their pinkies, or The Force.
Stop it.
Watch this. Or if you can't be bothered, let me paraphrase the moral of the story: killing and maiming people is not worth telling anyone "Lol!" or "Get pepperoni & mushroom" or "I'll be right there" or "Love you, too".
Stop it.

Evil Men, by James Dawes
I've just closed the back cover on possibly the most important book I've ever read. I'm tempted to go buy a carton of copies to give out. It easily and immediately takes a place in my top five favorite books. Although, "favorite" doesn't quite fit. It's a hard book.
In the interest of full disclosure, James Dawes, the author of EVIL MEN, was the valedictorian of my high school class. But make no mistake, this isn't a pal hawking a cohort's book. Jim and I aren't friends. Not to say that we're enemies. We just don't really know each other. I saw notice of the book on our school's alumni Facebook page and, being curious, thought I'd have a look.
Jim Dawes and I didn't have overlapping social circles in school. I do remember him, but I imagine that most of the class of 1987 remembers him. He was like that. Brilliant, kind, and athletic, he rather had all of his ducks in a row back then, which is remarkable for any kid that age. But there was more gravity to Jim than there was to other socially and academically successful teenagers. He was prominent in an unusual way, even if that way is still difficult to articulate all these years later. It left an impression that has lasted decades and definitely had something to do with being able to relate comfortably to a gaggle of peers while thinking quite a bit beyond us.
Apparently that has carried over into a life of valuable research and singular eloquence.
And that's probably all I'll say about James Dawes, the person, because a) I still don't know him personally and b) this isn't really about James Dawes, it's about the book, EVIL MEN, just out from Harvard University Press.
EVIL MEN is a dissection of atrocity and conceptual evil, inspired by a series of interviews with Japanese war criminals. These very old men recounted, through a translator, the horrors they had meted out in uniform during the Sino-Japanese wars. It broadens from there into a display of theory, ethics, scientific study, history, philosophy, and human rights advocacy, all tethered in a coherence that I would have to be incoherent to adequately express my admiration of. Let's just say that you will be quite a bit smarter by 'The End' than you were on page one, but you'll need to pay for the education in careful reading. This is by no means a one sit read. It demands (and rewards) deliberation.
There is no making sense of the things we do to each other, especially under the banner of military duty, but the value in this book is discovering that maybe there is a way to make sense of it not making sense. And if that sounds like a bit of intellectual tail-chasing, it isn't. This is not an entertaining book. But having just written that, I have to say that, one step removed, it is vastly entertaining to unfold the map of our collective conscience and see the red dot proclaiming that YOU ARE HERE.
The most remarkable feat of EVIL MEN is in its balance. The moral paradoxes of relating these traumas are thoroughly addressed. Doing justice to the victims with mere words while evoking the necessary vividness to adequately represent the crimes is no easy task. Then avoiding catapulting the whole works into gratuitous carnival takes the utmost heartfelt precision, which he exhibits without faltering. James Dawes is exacting of himself as a researcher, as a writer, and as a moral human being. Following his lead through the nautilus of self-examination is effortless and, somehow, not terrifying. It's not safe to go there, for certain, but it's not safe not go there either, as he explains on the page.
Most importantly, for me, EVIL MEN left me with a notion. If the model of morality is in any way analogous to the model of physics, then this book inspires the hope that perhaps it all works in the same way quantum mechanics plays under the screen of our observable, Newtonian world. Maybe in the act of just examining our malleability and by measuring our own frailty, perhaps we change it.
Go get this challenging, wonderful book. Read it and discover what evil is (or isn't) made of.
Three Graves Full – Fun With Cover Art
Having just been shown the cover art for the paperback (set to release on August 20th) it seemed like fun to line up TGF as it's come to be, artwise:
(left to right: advance review copy, hardcover, audiobook, large print edition, US/Canada paperback, UK/Australia/New Zealand trade paperback, Dutch version, German version, UK – B format, Czech version, Japanese version)
Now what? Heroes: build them up, then knock 'em down
So on Monday, Charles Ramsey heard a woman crying out for help in his Cleveland neighborhood. He kicked down the door to what turned out to be the resolution to at least three missing persons cases more than a decade old. With his boot, he ended the torture and imprisonment of three young women who had been plucked off the street years ago by a very, very bad man, Ariel Castro.
Charles Ramsey went on to numerous television interviews and proved to be an engaging storyteller. He's funny. He's animated. He's bright. And he feels terrible that he's lived next door for more than a year while these women were cruelly abused by a man Charles Ramsey has barbequed with.
And today we learn that Charles Ramsey has served prison time for felony domestic abuse. He went to jail for beating his wife.
It seems we can put heroes on pedestals or fillet them to their sundry parts, some of which are bound to be ordinary or even sub-par. Disappointment, either way, is inevitable. Construct a superhuman image of a mere mortal and that's arguably psychologically unhealthy for both the hero and the rabble left to worship an unachievable standard. Dredge up a hero's less-than-heroic moments and somehow the triumph is diminished.
It's a struggle to find the right temperature of love for heroism. We need heroes. Or more accurately, we need heroic moments. Then it seems against our nature to let these intersections of time and place stand on their own. We cast the hero into both the past and the future, and only in the mode of their moment of glory. When that doesn't match up to what they've done or what they will do, we seem to find that the particular moment that gave us goosebumps and a lump in our throat is farther away in our mind than where we thought we'd put it.
We dig. We dig knowing that it's too good to be true. And I don't know whether it's the right thing, knocking them back. Maybe it serves a purpose, avoids too much distance between ourselves and our heroes. In the end, maybe it keeps us in their company, increasing the odds that we may dare to join their ranks if needs be.
Or maybe, as it feels this morning, we need to be careful sawing off our heroes at the knees. We can ill afford to have it play into those seconds or milliseconds of calculation in an emergency. The thought if I do this, and it helps, every other thing I've ever done is going to be held up in comparison against this moment would leave a lot of people stranded on the cold side of assistance.

NBA: Kyrie Irving, Carmelo Anthony star in highest-scoring All Star Game
Published on Feb 17, 2014 5:50 PM
NEW ORLEANS (Reuters) - Kyrie Irving and Carmelo Anthony put on a dazzling show that vaulted the Eastern Conference to a 163-155 comeback win over the Western Conference, in the highest scoring NBA All Star game ever on Sunday.
Irving scored 15 of his team-high 31 points during the back-and-forth fourth quarter duel and added 14 assists to seize Most Valuable Player honours at the showcase in New Orleans.
"It's a great honour," he said after making 14 of 17 shots and helping the East end a stretch of three straight defeats by the West.
"We had a few MVPs. Everyone out here today is an MVP." Anthony added 30 and made an All Star record eight three-pointers, including a crucial one that gave the East a four-point lead with about a minute remaining.

Unstallable Plane!
To do this trick first put the "cars float away when hit" cheat on. Then find a car and drive it to the nearest airport. Find a plane and gently tap it with the car, if you hit it gently enough it wont float away. This is your chance to get in it, it should still handle like a normal plane but you will be able to do all sorts of crazy stunts and tricks without the plane stalling and plummeting back down to earth. You can even go vertical in a dodo, and you will even be able to get to the top without stalling. Hope this helps, have fun! :)

MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) — The Minnesota Vikings have suspended a 24-year-old defensive end for use of performance enhancing substances.
Vikings Spokesman Jon Ekstrom says Spencer Nealy is suspended without pay for four 2014 regular-season games.
Nealy, a Texas A&M grad who just had his rookie season with the Vikings, will be eligible to participate in all off- and pre-season practices and games.
He will not be able to return to the team's active roster until after their Sept. 28 game with the Atlanta Falcons.

Multinational shippers will become more attracted to book shipping capacity collectively using centralized freight procurement systems when ocean rates begin to increase again, an Electrolux supply chain executive said.
"When rates go up, you can't duck your head. That's when (large shippers) need to leverage their strength and global reach to make those headwinds as light as possible by making package deals, " said Bjorn Vang Jensen, Electrolux's vice president of global logistics.
Electrolux began to centralize its freight procurement seven years ago, and has achieved significant economies of scale and market clout through such efforts, Jensen told the Supply Chain and Logistics Summit 2011 in Singapore this week. The company recently launched a 153,000 20-foot equivalent unit tender and spends about $1.5 billion annually on transport services.
"The power of centralized procurement is greatest when headwinds are strongest. You can't beat the market, but you can beat your competition," Jensen said.
Centralization, he said, allows Electrolux to see how it "can combine inward and outward movements in a way some locally cannot."
The former A.P. Moller-Maersk executive said any major OEMs looking to centralize companywide freight procurement should first ensure board-level support. To ensure there is no ambiguity either internally, or when dealing with carriers and third-party logistics providers, "you need the full force of the company behind you," he said.
"In Electrolux only two people are authorized to negotiate or sign contracts with carriers or forwarders," Jensen said.
The power to cancel contracts with 3PLs providers is similarly concentrated. Electrolux's service providers are required to sign a clause stating that if they offered anyone at the company a lower rate locally than already agreed centrally, then that rate would be backdated globally for the entire contract.
"It hasn't happened yet, but I hope it does," he half-joked.

Police arrest two in mall jewel robberyComment on this story
Pietermaritzburg - Staff from Natal Wholesale Jewellers at the Hayfields Mall in Pietermaritzburg were in shock after being held at gunpoint on Thursday.
The owner of the franchise, Sandy Naicker, did not want to comment on the incident.
A staff member was seen outside the shop shaking and in tears.
She, too, did not want to say anything.
Two of the four suspects were arrested by police and the jewellery they had stolen was found.
Car guard Daphne Lloyd said she was directing a driver out of a parking space when two men came running out of the shopping centre. One ran towards a car and the other in a different direction.
"I heard shooting, but don't know who was shooting," she said, holding in her hand three bullets wrapped in a tissue.
The shop is situated directly opposite Pick n Pay.
A police source said three of the gang went into the centre, while the driver stayed in the car.
The men's vehicle was found abandoned in Mkondeni. It was riddled with bullet holes.
Police spokesman Captain Thulani Zwane said the two men arrested were aged 22 and 27 and would appear in court soon.

Re: Mixing: What's causing the blades to bend?15 July 2009 at 1:29pm
Your mixer design is somewhat unusual with large-diameter impellers and narrow blade widths. Your description is vague with respect to how many blades (extensions) are at each impeller location on the shaft. My design estimates recommend that with four blades at each impeller location, the blades should be at least 25 mm thick. If only two blades are at each impeller location the blades need to be 32 mm thick. In other words, the blades need to be 1/4 to 1/3 as thick as they are wide, for them not to bend. Thinner blades require operational limitations or they may bend or break due to normal operation. Bent blades may be an indication that they are hitting lumps or other things in the tank. Fatigue failures, due to normal operation, often result in the blades breaking off completely.
Editor's Note: The questioner sent in additional information after this post. Our expert, David Dickey, senior consultant, MixTech Inc., offered an expanded answer. The Q & A is below:
Q: Based on my question above:
• blade position in angle 45 degree with width 100 mm, thickness 15 mm and provide the 10 mm stiffener along the length of blade
• bottom position has two blades, it is about 33 mm
• top position is about 840 mm from the center of bottom position, it also has two blades
• diameter of both position of blade = 1590 as mentioned before.
A: The additional information does not change my previous answer. The most likely cause of bent blades is either that they are not thick enough for the applied loads or they are hitting lumps or other objects in the fluid. The additional information about two blades, regardless of angle, at each location and the bottom location within 33 mm of the bottom, only confirms the need for 32 mm thick blades. A 15 mm thick blade with a 10 mm stiffener does not meet that thickness requirement. This problem is much less about the details of the design and more about fixing the consequences.
If increasing the thickness of the blades is considered to be impractical, then reducing the speed of the mixer will also reduce the loads on the blades. A reduced speed may not have an adverse effect on processing capabilities.

Even though Bemidji is a regional retail and educational center, with the amenities of a large city, it still maintains a small-town atmosphere. The surrounding region abounds with interesting places and things to do. A few memorable places to visit are; the Continental Divide, the 'Lost Forty' forest of 350 year old trees, birding hot spots or the Forestedge Winery.

"Thank you so much for creating our beautiful Christmas cards. They look fantastic! We appreciate the quick service too. We look forward to working with you again in the future. Have a blessed Christmas season with family and friends." - Gratefully, Steven and Michelle
"Kaity at Invitations Consultants is amazing! The personalized service I received for my wedding invitations and decor was unbelievable. I luckily live in Tampa and was able to meet in Kaity in person a few times. She was available any time I requested, but with my busy schedule almost everything was able to completed over email. They worked with me to specialize the design and color of so many items. Kaity was always professional, patient and very sweet. All the women complimented the special touch of having invitations, programs, favor tags, bar menu, and table numbers work so well together. The unique design of each item ensured they blended perfectly with a common theme without matching the exact same. I saved myself so much stress and time working with Kaity and the prices at Invitation Consultants are extremely affordable. I shopped around a lot and know I found an awesome deal. I would recommend printing on shimmer paper if you think you may like that style. It is so classy and pretty. And I would highly recommend this company!! I know I will be using them many times in the years to come. Thank you Kaity!" - Raina
"I just received my order (Holiday Menu Cards) and they look terrific.
I had a wonderful experience using Invitation Consultants for our Holiday Dinner invitation and menu cards. I have shared this experience with my co-workers and friends, as well.
Whether it was on-line or a phone call you have all been very helpful and friendly. My experience was terrific.
Thank you for making ordering invitations and menu cards a complete joy!" - Diane
"I received my rehearsal dinner invitations yesterday and wanted to let you know how pleased I am with them. They are just as promised. Several friends have seen them and all thought they were great.
Many thanks to your staff (especially Katie who helped me on the phone) for the quick work to get the proof ready for approval to the fast shipment of my order.
I will try to find a site such as wedding wire to place a review for your company. I found out about your company from a shower invitation I had just received." - Adrian
"We ordered our wedding invitations, inserts and thank you notes from Invitation Consultants and were very pleased with their work and customer service. The turnaround was quite quick and error-free! Their templates were quite lovely and right within our price point!" - Wedding Wire Review
"If you are looking for completely personal, stylish, trendy, beautiful and made with perfection invitations, Invitation Consultants is THE place to find them! If you are looking for completely personal, stylish, trendy, beautiful and made with perfection invitations, Invitation Consultants is THE place to find them! I recently had my invitations printed with them and if I had a nickel for all the compliments I received, it could've paid the postage to send them all out!
I brought them my design and all the text, and sat down with Jennifer, the Creative Director (and my savior) to come up with the perfect invitation. We chose colors, papers and put it all together. She really has an intuitive sense, she could read what was in my mind and turn my drawings into beautiful invitations. Due to a problem with the person I had previously trusted to handle the printing, I was on a very tight timeline of about 10 days. She assured me they could handle it on time with no worries, and she was completely correct. Within 2 days I had a sample of all our pieces (bi-fold invitation, accommodations, directions, RSVP cards) emailed to me, and with a few emails back & forth over the next day or two, we had everything nailed down and they were ready to print! The following week I had all 200 invitations, boxed neatly and ready to be assembled.
The whole team, all the girls, especially Jen, made the whole experience so wonderful. I felt like they really took the time to understand my custom design, what I really wanted, and they made it better than I had hoped for.
I loved the work and the quality at Invitation Consultants SO much, and the feedback from our guests was so good, that I returned to have them print our custom Programs, Menu Cards & Favor Tags! Jen created a gorgeous trifold program for us, and a completely custom menu card made from a few photos I had brought her and the text I supplied. She helped me come up with the most perfect design that really enhanced our reception tables and the theme of our wedding (rustic elegant). The favor tags that went with our favors were the CUTEST! Perfectly matched to our invitation design. Again, all the print work got such rave reviews, everyone was commenting on the detail that was captured and the outstanding quality!
The team at Invitation Consultants really is THE best! I can't recommend highly enough that anyone planning an event, or an announcement, or just needs print work done needs to go there and sit with the designers. I guarantee you will not be disappointed. We will definitely be coming back for our Housewarming invitations, and in the future, Baby Announcements! They do it all. THANK YOU! To Jennifer & the whole team at Invitation Consultants!!" - Christina

"What a great place to get invitations done!..." - Wedding Wire Review

"The invitations for my Las Vegas wedding are gorgeous, I was glad that I designed them they way I wanted. The proofreading is a plus cause they caught the mistake I did with the fonts. I received my order fast and was so excited with the outcome. I would definitely use them again. Thanks to my wedding coordinator at the Mandalay Bay for sharing their link with me." - Anonymous
"I was just surfing the web and came across this website and I am so glad I did. Very reasonable priced and the finished product was AMAZING! I loved how you could design your invites to exactly what you wanted and they gave you many templates to start from. I did contact the customer service the next day because I made an error on my fathers name (I wrote Dave instead of David) and they picked up on the second ring and fixed the problem within seconds. I don't think I was on the phone for long than 1 minute, it was impressive. I also received the invites in less than 2 weeks! Totally recommend!" - Anonymous

More About Our Company
I love weddings. I love watching the story unfold, seeing all the wonderful moments and the sparkling glow of people so much in love. Since I've also been a photographer since the mid-90s, you would think my career choice would be obvious. But actually photographing weddings was no fun for me at all. When I found a position doing production work for an incredible boutique wedding photographer, I was thrilled. I got to see all the pictures, I got to make them sing, make everyone look as beautiful in the photograph as they did in real life, and construct stunning albums that showed the story of their day, without having to leave my comfy studio.
But I noticed that many of my friends were getting married, and weren't getting the treatment from their photographers that we delivered in our studio. The albums were lackluster, or non-existent; photos weren't color corrected, and most ended up with nothing from their photographer but a CD-r of jpegs. Most thought they would make a scrapbook themselves, eventually, but a year or two later, still hadn't had time, or discovered that they couldn't make it look the way they wanted.
And this is why A La Carte Albums was born. Because everyone should have the option to have their story told, beautifully.
I create personalized, professional designs and bring them to life in high quality professional level albums from companies like Finao, Seldex, Renaissance, Asukabook, and others.Read More
