Emails, Cell Phone Records and "Change"
Posted by Steve Markowitz on June 8, 2013
On nearly a daily basis, reports come out concerning the federal government's collecting of private information on citizens. This past week it became public that the government has obtained the phone records of nearly all Americans. Closely on its heels it was reported that the NSA's (National Security Agency) has a program called Prism that taps into the servers of the largest Internet providers and tech companies.
The justification for the intrusions on personal liberties is based on national security needs. While it is clear that danger exists from Islamic terrorists who use the Internet and telephone for communications, it is questionable whether the broad intrusions of the government can be justified. It is ironic that such broad intrusions did not allow the government to stop the Boston Marathon bombers, even though one had jihadist material posted on the Internet. In addition, it is difficult to justify these intrusions in light of President Obama's speech last month that implied that the war on terror is over.
Shortly after the news of the cell phone and Internet snooping went public, President Obama called them "modest intrusions" on American's privacy. This is a ludicrous statement. While the snooping may be justified for national security reasons, they are not modest.
Candidate Obama constantly castigated his predecessor, George W. Bush, for similar civil liberty violations justified under the pretext of national security. Now he is forced to justify his changing tune saying: "I came in with a healthy skepticism about these programs. My team evaluated them, we scrubbed them thoroughly, we actually expanded some of the oversight, increased some of the safeguards. But my assessment and my team's assessment was that they help us prevent terrorist attacks." He also said: "If people can't trust not only the executive branch but also don't trust Congress and don't trust federal judges to make sure that we're abiding by the Constitution, due process and rule of law, then we're going to have some problems here."
Obama's comments are less than comforting given his administration's attack on the press via seizing the AP records and attempting to criminalize a reporter for doing his job. In addition, its use of the IRS to go after political opponents shows that Chicago politics have indeed gone national. The polls rightly demonstrate the public's skepticism. Since taking office in early 2009, Obama's honesty rating has dropped over 20%.
While an op-ed in the New York Times compared the current governmental intrusions to those of the Nixon administration, the bulk of the mainstream media's response has been muted by its long love affair with Barack Obama. This incestuous relationship between Obama and the media has been a major cause of governmental overreach under this administration.

Omaha's final regular season indoor meet is today as they head down to the Nebraska Tune-Up. There are live stats available here.
The Mavericks will be looking to get one last strong weekend in before heading off to the Summit League Championship in Vermillion on the 24th and 25th. I suppose we should do SCHOOL RECORD WATCH and take a look at where one might fall this weekend… we'll focus on those who have been close so far
First of all Maja Milhalinec is the school record holder in the 60m Dash at 7.49. She'd need to shave just 0.03 seconds off her season best time to match it… so that's a possibility every weekend.
Amanda Vorthmann is running the 1,000m this weekend. She has not run the event this year and was about seven seconds off the school record time last year, but with her setting the mile, 3000m, and 5000m over the last couple months, who are we to say she can't set another?
Sami Spenner has set a couple records as well and her best time of 8.66 in the 60m Hurdles is only .11 seconds off the school record.
Kathie-Lee Laidley already holds the school record in the high jump and while it's been a couple years since she set it she could still top it again. So those four are probably the most likely if UNO is going to set another record this weekend.
If anyone wants to see the schedule it is here with the heat sheets here.
Here's who appears to be competing for UNO… we sure learned last week that just because they are listen on the heat sheets on Wednesday doesn't mean they will compete there on Friday… but it is a good idea.

This is perhaps the kind of people I truly despise the most. We've had met people who complain about their lives yet take no action to make things better. These are the folks we call whiners. No one likes a whiner. But whiners whine and sometimes their whining echo through space and time and very occasionally land on a listening ear with the guts to act. Therefore, their whining is not all for naught. A great example of the great whiners of Malaysia is the Chinese people, of which I am one myself. I hate whiners just like many other folks, but there is one personality trait that is worse and lower than whiners. These are the cowards. These are the people who whine only when no authority can hear them, for fear of being dragged out of their homes kicking and screaming to the police lock-up. Cowards have an unreasonable fear for anything with the slightest degree of power or the appearance of having such. They have a skewed perception of what is acceptable and what is not. When you start a casual conversation about religion and race and simple realities of life, they'd sweat in their pants and start looking everywhere for that supposed plainclothed ISA and Special Branch officer. If you don't stop after ten seconds, they'd quickly hush you up and pretend they don't know you. Cowards can be your closest friend one minute and a total stranger the next, especially when uncomfortable truths are brought out for discussion. Cowards are not people with low slef-esteem. In fact, it is very much the opposite. Cowards have an elevated sense of self-importance. They think that they deserved all that they have achieved today, without any sense of gratitude to the people that have assisted them along the way. Cowards think that the whole world is interested in what they are wearing, saying and doing. For that reason, they forbid anything 'sensitive' or 'controversial' to be discussed in public. They even have a unique and erroneous perception of what is sensitive and controversial. Cowards may go quite far along in life due to their extreme cautiousness and paranoia. As they progressed however, their cowardice increases and makes them all the more despicable.
Call them liars or smooth-talkers, conmen or frauds, hypocrites or phonies. There is no better term for such personalities apart from the blunt 'bull shitters'. They are found in every profession and not just politics and religion. The phony preacher and the big-talking politician are in a basket to their own. They say things the gullible believer and naïve voter desire to hear but at then end of the day does little damage except for the swindling of differing sums of money. Preachers and politicians are but the most novice of liars because people see them through but still choose to buy their words. The second basket of bull crappers are typified by the smooth-talking salesperson and fact-twisting lawyer. You don't know you're being conned until you've bought the product or insurance or car or ended up behind bars because your loud-talking, chest-thumping attorney was in cohorts with the opposite party. By the time you know it and before you can utter the F word and swear at their mothers, they are beyond your grasp with a 60-foot pole. You end up feeling like a loser – all sore and stupid for swallowing their every word. The top class of liars in my arbitrary classification is formed by the politically-correct diplomat, the flattering playboy, and the Sabah state neurosurgeon. The diplomat tells you to go to hell in such a way that you actually look forward to the trip. The ugly-looking, hispid Casanova screws around, gathers some STDs and then shares some of it with you. Instead of hating him, one falls deeper in love. Lastly, the self-proclaimed India-trained neurosurgeon will see your CT scan and says you have a very operable brain tumor when it is fact an arteriovenous malformation. He promises a rosy future and a super favorable outcome then proceeds to mess up your brain. You end up bed-ridden, as mobile as cow dung in a den of dung bettles. You can't thank him at all cos you're on a tracheostomy and a feeding tube. Your family will however, in so much gratitude that your younger sister is sleeping with the neurosurgeon's hairy chested lover-boy apprentice. Bull-shitters – they're everywhere.
Ass-kissers: Enough said. Some also lick and smell, though.

A Monte Carlo study of macroscopic and microscopic dose descriptors for kilovoltage cellular dosimetry
This work investigates how doses to cellular targets depend on cell morphology, as well as relations between cellular doses and doses to bulk tissues and water. Multicellular models of five healthy and cancerous soft tissues are developed based on typical values of cell compartment sizes, elemental compositions and number densities found in the literature. Cells are modelled as two concentric spheres with nucleus and cytoplasm compartments. Monte Carlo simulations are used to calculate the absorbed dose to the nucleus and cytoplasm for incident photon energies of 20-370 keV, relevant for brachytherapy, diagnostic radiology, and out-of-field radiation in higher-energy external beam radiotherapy. Simulations involving cell clusters, single cells and single nuclear cavities are carried out for cell radii between 5 and 10 μm, and nuclear radii between 2 and 9 μm. Seven nucleus and cytoplasm elemental compositions representative of animal cells are considered. The presence of a cytoplasm, extracellular matrix and surrounding cells can affect the nuclear dose by up to 13%. Differences in cell and nucleus size can affect dose to the nucleus (cytoplasm) of the central cell in a cluster of 13 cells by up to 13% (8%). Furthermore, the results of this study demonstrate that neither water nor bulk tissue are reliable substitutes for subcellular targets for incident photon energies <50 keV: nuclear (cytoplasm) doses differ from dose-to-medium by up to 32% (18%), and from dose-to-water by up to 21% (8%). The largest differences between dose descriptors are seen for the lowest incident photon energies; differences are less than 3% for energies ≥90 keV. The sensitivity of results with regard to the parameters of the microscopic tissue structure model and cell model geometry, and the importance of the nucleus and cytoplasm as targets for radiation-induced cell death emphasize the importance of accurate models for cellular dosimetry studies.

Rose Under Fire
5:00 pm 26 June 2013
Rose is an ATA pilot, shuttling planes and people around England in service of the WWII war effort. She's been flying since she was twelve, and she knows she has more skill and experience than many of the green boys flying planes over in France on the front lines. So when her uncle, a hotshot military engineer with connections, arranges for her to fly to Paris shortly after it's been liberated, she's thrilled. But Rose gets more than she bargained for on her jaunt to France, and what comes next will test her in every way the human spirit can be tested.I was not expecting this to be a sequel to [b:Code Name Verity|11925514|Code Name Verity|Elizabeth Wein|http://d.gr-assets.com/books/1337034341s/11925514.jpg|16885788], so I was startled to start reading and discover that Maddie is a prominent secondary character. Honestly, I think that was one of the downsides for me reading this, because there were so many bits where Elizabeth Wein did little call-outs to Code Name Verity, and seriousface WWII historical fiction does not need cutesy little shout-outs and recurring characters in "companion novels." I'm not saying Maddie is a bad character, but I do think this book would have been stronger without her.This book was not as good as Code Name Verity. I just have to get that off my chest. It was, however, pretty damned good.Like Code Name Verity, it took me a while to get into this book. Specifically, Wein's quickly-becoming-trademark unusual narrative style choices, which aid the book as a whole, make the first 60 pages really, really boring. But all the boring, chipper, girl-who-really-wants-to-be-on-the-front-lines-because-she's-a-hotshot-pilot-and-craves-excitement blandness serve as a stark contrast to what comes later.What comes later is...well. If you read Code Name Verity, brace yourself for that kind of intensity. This book was horrifying, and beautifully written. I didn't think Rose was that great of a character, but I did love all the relationships she forms through her ordeal, and how her friendships keep her going. She also had some interesting internal conflicts throughout the book, and some of them were really fascinating to think about.Overall, if you liked Code Name Verity, you will probably enjoy this as well. If you didn't like Code Name Verity, this book also probably isn't for you (unless your issue with CNV was the unreliable narrator, because there's none of that here). I don't think Rose is a particularly compelling or lovable character, but the situations she finds herself in are compelling in and of themselves, and make the book worth reading.Thanks to NetGalley and Disney-Hyperion for providing an ARC of this title.

When i made my first card with this fabulous background stamp from Altoa i knew i would want to use this stamp also as a szene for my people stamps. Check out Altoas site - my Design Team Mates came up with some other very creative ideas for this stamp.
I covered Debbies die with some Designer paper of my lovely Melissa Frances line and added some spacer to the back. It looks almost like a window. It was super easy and very fast. Some sewing on the paper to give it more structure but i did not want to go overboard with embellishments.
Stamps: Alota Rubberstamps, Hanglar

Eventually, I reached out to Rescue 1 and they were able to squeeze me in their schedule on short notice and get the job done.

Often it happens that when we see an object, we see faces in those objects. Like you see different shapes in clouds or in your coffee cup and even in the moon sometimes you find a shape that reminds you of some other thing. If this happens to you quite often, then you are not mad. This is a psychological phenomenon called pareidolia.
Here we have collected few images of ordinary objects where we can see other faces as well. Let's see if you can also see faces in these images.

Book Review: Modern Pioneering by Georgia Pellegrini
Georgia Pellegrini says self-sufficiency is the ultimate girl power. I agree. Modern Pioneering makes self-sufficiency a little easier with step-by-step instructions on how to do everything from grow a small space garden to crafting mason jar lanterns to fermenting cabbage into hot pink saurkraut.
Modern Pioneering is divided into sections: The Garden, The Home, The Wild and The Rest. The garden section includes information on tools that you need to garden, selecting a garden spot and saving seeds, along with a lot more. It offers a lot of basic information that would be helpful to any beginning gardener. As a more experienced gardener, I already knew quite a bit of the information the gardening information. However, I think the section with recipes offers great recipes for both those who have experience and those with none. Some of the recipes include: Fig and Quinoa Salad, pink pickled eggs, chocolate bread pudding, mint jelly and salmon in a jar. The Wild section offers great advice on using wild plants as food, making a basic lean-to shelter and a pocket-sized 48-hour survival tool kit in an Altoids tin (I loved this! I have my tin ready.) The Rest is a section offers more food recipes like making your own chai spice tea and cheese, along with crafty recipes like making homemade chalk paint and homemade beeswax candles.
I have several projects and recipes marked to make in this book. The pictures and step-by-step instructions are just bright and eye-catching. I truly see this books as both practical and eye candy on lazy days of dreaming what I want to make. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to make things on their own and become more self-sufficient. I thought it had a good index for finding what you are specifically looking for too.

The Magical World of Dr. Joseph Lisiewski by Mark Stavish
Few figures in the contemporary world of occultism have garnered the admiration and vitriol as has Dr. Joseph Charles Lisiewski (1947 – 2016). Born in the rugged coal mining region of Central Pennsylvania, Lisiewski came of age in an era when the grip of religious orthodoxy was waning, but the magical world of the 'Counter Culture Movement' was not yet fully born. After a terrifying magical evocation at the age of 17, he was quickly admitted to the ranks of the few to find himself involved with two of the greatest occultists of the Twentieth Century – Israel Regardie and Frater Albertus. Having worked closely with both men for years, he detailed his unique relationship with them in the only book to date written about either man – Israel Regardie and the Philosopher's Stone (2008). Having worked closely with Lisiewski on that book, as well as others, in The Magical World of Dr. Joseph Lisiewski I tell the story of our decade long friendship, the magical and alchemical projects we worked together on, the truth behind his academic claims, and details on the final ritual I performed for him – an exorcism for a ritual that went bad, and for which he claimed would ultimately take his life. This book is not only a peak behind the curtain at the life of a man who can rightly be called the most controversial ceremonial magician of the early Twenty-First Century, but also a look at the context of his life astrologically, socially, and in light of the alchemical and magical revival of which he was an integral part. A must book for anyone interested in one of best known, and least understood figures of modern occultism.

Bored of paying too much for lunches and waiting in that dreaded queue in the middle of the working day… enter the MealPal app! MealPal is already extremely popular in a number of US cities and has chosen London as the first international city to launch in.
I have been trialling this app for a couple of weeks and I am impressed! Through the app, you can reserve your lunches with participating restaurants with a specific pick up time (15 minute windows e.g. 12.45-13.00) meaning you can skip the queue when you arrive and simply pick up your order. Even better than that, if you subscribe for 20 lunches in a month, they are only £4.39 for each meal, no matter what you order, which means you save money every day you eat! For example, the Ari Gold and chips from Patty and Bun would be over £10 if it was purchased outside the app. If 20 lunches is too much, MealPal also offer 12 lunches a month for £4.79 each.
No long term commitment so why not give it a go!? Participating restaurants in the City included Cruush, Chilangos, Patty and Bun, K10, Pod, Hop Vietnamese and so many more!

I got this TyTn a few months ago and it is great but I do have a small problem. It only registers the first sim card I used it with (my work line), I have since tried several times to use my personal sim card (same company still, Vodafone) and it does nothing, as though there wasn't a sim in it... I have consulted Vf customer care, its internet department, ...etc. and nobody seems to know what could be wrong. Can anyone help?
hello im having SOFTBANK X10HT (HTC TYTN)this phone can do it all very reliable and it's specs are oozing with functionality and it's a versatile gadget....i love it!!!! weeehhh!!!!!!!! if you want functionality style and productivity choose this phone it'll give you simply the best office solutions and multimedia experience you need!!!!
Does this phone play YouTube videos?? Are HTC thinking of upgrading the device?? I understand that companies such as Eten and I-mate have phones coming out with VGA screens and faster processors.
Just got this fone(HTC TYTN)and it far beter than NOKIA N95.It faster and better quality and has WM6.Thank HTC for best fone on the market.
I recently got this phone and i must say wow its freakin amazing. Although i am experiencing one problem i can sync photos, videos on the phone but i can not bluetooth songs on to it or even sync them from the computer at all. They go onto the phone yet i still cant find them please could someone help me out.
You bet slingbox works with this device!!
Slingbox is the greatest thing since porn!!
to get navigator system, use : anexternal GPS antenna receiver by bluetooth. Get TOMTOM or any other navigator system, install it, push commanager bluetooth and switch on all available detection ; then configure TOMTOM com bluetooth gps recevier and enjoy
Yes this phone is better than the HP IPAQ 6915.
The IPAQ doesn't even have 3G.
This phone doesn't have GPS, for that, wait for the 8925 (Kaiser).
It's (8925)the same as this phone(TyTN) but with a GPS, a tilt screen and 512M memory.
Hi - Can anyone tell me which phone performs - better - HP IPAQ 6915 or This TyTN?
hi- I need to know if this phone can be used as GPS receiver also??? maybe with TOMTOM or what ever - Pls advise- thanks-SP
Still the best in this summer 2007:
HSDPA, 3G, WIFI, 2Mpixels, Flash, 400mhZ cpu easely overclockable to 425mhz, confortable keyboard, transflash up to 2Go and Winmobile5 upgradable to Winmobile6 without any problem, and pretty small stylus.
Only a little bit large, keyboard not well locked when the phone is closed, and a weak brightness when the sun rises.
I just bought this phone from AT&T(Cingular).
It's called the 8525.
My phone has the at&t logo on it and came pre-installed with the latest WM5 update.
I live in Las Vegas and I'm get around 800k (3G I believe) download according to "www.dslreports/mspeed"
I think the AT&T branded phones are more stable than the Cingular branded ones because I had one of those first, then I applied the update to it and it went to hell quickly, I returned it and got this one.
P.S. Before I had any of these phones I tried the iPhone...don't waste your money like I did. It can't compete at all with this baby!
If you have any questions, let me know.
hii have always had a nokia and took the plunge to change to a tytn. great features and easy to use but i am battling to get my data from nokia 9500 via blutooth to this phone it keep bombing out . also it often drops calls .any solutions .thanks in advance
if you like windows mobile 6 official htc release, download it here:
Just thought ill add my two cents. All in all once you have flashed it to the standard HTC rom its a great phone and even better PDA. Mines got a whole host of wifi proggys on and TomTom too which was the realy test to see if it kept up. It did! I hope all that reads this at least trys this phone as its well worth a go. One thing i will say is it is bulky which you kinda expect from this kind of device.
Hello all,
I just got this phone last week and so far I'm loving it. I only have one problem though, every time I try to connect to WiFi, the phone kind of just stops working. I can't use the touch screen at all, but the tracker wheel still works. Does anyone else have this problem or is it just my phone? Or is there something wrong that I'm doing? Please help!!! Thanks in advance! :)
For Sara and everyone who needs a brighter screen. Visit the link and download this small file.
I have put it as a shortcut on the screen (I use "spb pocket plus") and works perfectly.

Hi ladies, finally things are beginning to take shape.ReplyDelete
Julie, can't wait to see the gals, hope they will like their new surroundings!
Margeret, what a coincidence. I went to the post collection office on Saturday to pick up a parcel and the lovely old man who works behind the counter brought out your package. It looked much the worse for wear and has obviously seen more of the world than I have ! Everything was fine and I have already placed them on my florist. Thank you so much.
Michelle the stone work on the stair divide is that stone effect spray. I painted the MDF grey first, it does need an undercoat for bonding. Then cut up making tape to create the stones. Then sprayed. Very easy and very effective. Quick too!!
I really appreciate all comments that readers take the time to leave. I try to reply to all of them.

Country distribution from AmphibiaWeb's database: Cameroon, Equatorial Guinea, Nigeria
Range Description
This species is known from mid- to high-elevation sites (200–1,200 m Asl) in southwestern Cameroon, southeastern Nigeria and the island of Bioko, Equatorial Guinea. Once regarded as the rarest Bufonid in Africa (Grandison 1981), recent discoveries have greatly expanded the known distribution and confirmed persistence in historical localities. Its EOO is 12,743 km2.
Habitat and Ecology
The species lives on forest edges and in clearings in moist forest from the lowlands to the submontane in the Cameroon Volcanic Belt. This species is frequently found in aggregations of as many as 40 individuals of mixed gender and life stage. They have been found in the leaf litter and frequently perched atop low-lying vegetation. In many instances individuals have been found in edge or disturbed areas, including secondary forest and farmland. Gartshore (1984) reported this preference for secondary or disturbed habitat and noted that this species may be less susceptible to anthropogenic habitat degradation, but also speculated that the species may not tolerate land use practices of the abundant palm oil plantations in the area. However, while not reporting D. sjostedti from these plantations specifically, Lawson (1993) did note that otherwise rare forest-dwelling amphibians achieved "uncharacteristically high densities in this habitat", indicating that these land-use practices do not preclude anuran colonization.
Gartshore (1984) discovered individuals in the vicinity of gelatinous masses but was unable to verify these were anuran in origin. Gonwouo recently discovered an individual in the leaf litter next to a small clutch of 10 eggs, supporting hypotheses of terrestrial egg deposition and direct development (Gartshore 1984, Grandison 1981, Lawson 1993, Gonwouo et al. 2013).
This species has been observed in significant numbers as recently as February 2012 (Gonwouo et al. 2013) and subpopulations thought to have been extirpated (i.e. Bioko) have since been rediscovered (Weinberg 2008) and recorded again in September 2012 surveys in Pico Basile (Bioko) (P. McLaughlin pers. comm. November 2016). Recent accounts report the status of subpopulations to be "large and healthy" and "observed in abundance" (Weinberg 2008), "exceedingly abundant" (Lawson and Klemens 2001) or report the observation and collection of large numbers of individuals (Gartshore 1984, ~200 observations; Gonwouo et al. 2013, >45 observations). However, there is evidence of continuing decline in the area, extent and/or quality of habitat, primarily due to conversion of habitat for agricultural use, and the population overall is suspected to be decreasing.
Population Trend
Major Threats
The main threat to the species is habitat loss primarily due to agricultural expansion, in particular local and industrial palm plantations (Gonwouo pers. comm. May 2012), timber extraction, and human settlement. However, it is noted that this species seems to prefer disturbed edges of forest and may be less susceptible to disturbance than most anurans (Gartshore 1984, Lawson 1993).
Conservation Actions
Conservation ActionsThis species is known from Cross River National Park (Nigeria), Pico de Basile National Park on the north end of Bioko Island (Equatorial Guinea), the Cameroonian Makoko and Kendonge Forest Reserves, and Mt. Cameroon National Park. Additionally this species has been discovered near the borders of Korup National Park, Rumpi Hills and Banyang Mbo Protected Areas and the Bakossi Mountains Wildlife Preserve and is likely to occur within those protected areas.Conservation NeededDespite its' tolerance to some habitat disturbance and occurrence in protected areas, the management of these protected areas requires improvement and much of its habitat still requires protection.Research NeededMore information is needed on this species' taxonomy, distribution, population status, natural history. Finally, since the species seems to occur in palm plantations with certain types of management, it would be beneficial to study which kind of management promotes the survival of the species in modified habitats.
Red List Status
Vulnerable (VU)
Listed as Vulnerable because its extent of occurrence (EOO) is 12,743 km2, it occurs in less than 10 threat-defined locations, and there is evidence of continuing decline in the area, extent and/or quality of habitat primarily due to conversion of habitat for agricultural use.
Taxonomic Notes
This is a monotypic species, believed to be closely related to the African endemic genus Nectophrynoides. This hypothesis is supported by the findings of Frost et al. (2006). Though the conclusions of relationship among those taxa closely related to D. sjostedti have come into question (compare Frost et al. 2006 to Van Bocxalaer et al. 2009), the identity and distinctiveness of this species is clear and uncontroversial.

I hate a love-hate relationship with the public library.
I love going to the library. Whenever I move to a new location, the public library is the first place I visit after the grocery store and the bank. The quiet immensity of any public library fills me with a sense of wonder.
But I also have trouble whenever I enter a public library because inevitably they have a discarded-book-sale section. And despite my best efforts to the contrary, I am inexplicably pulled toward said book-sale section. I find my eyes and fingers scanning the titles–even as my brain is saying, "You DO NOT have any room in your house for more books!"
Guess which one wins?
Actually, some of the best books in our house have been discarded by the library. Often these discards are for seemingly minute reasons–like the pages are getting a little worn where people turn them at the spine so they "might" rip soon. Seriously? THAT'S what merits discard status?
But the library's loss is my gain. Well . . . gain for awesome books on my shelves. Not so much gain for my bank account.
Nevertheless, here are a few of my favorite history books that we've acquired over the years:
I can't recommend these books highly enough! If you aren't lucky enough to find them on your library's discard shelf any time soon, Amazon and Ebay may also be able to help you out!
A Street through Time (by Anne Millord and Steve Noon)
Imagine–each spread in this oversize book is the same street during a different time period in history. The richly detailed illustrations are combined with fun facts that frame the pictures.
On top of that, you have mini-stories that play out with pieces of the illustrations from one time period to the next. (For example, the Roman statue proudly displayed inside a house during the Roman time period is dredged from the river during the Victorian era and becomes an antique for sale on the modern-day page.)
Finally, there is a Where's Waldo element that adds another layer of fun.
I can't tell you how many HOURS my kids have spent pouring over this book. It was worth every penny (all one hundred of them) that I spent!
Where's Waldo Now? (by Martin Handford)
Speaking of Where's Waldo, here's another great book. Where's Waldo Now? has all the delightful features that you would expect in any Where's Waldo book, but this book travels through time. As my kids searched for Waldo and the numerous other objects and people, I could hear them reciting facts about history that we've covered over the last few years.
Can you LEARN history from this book? Probably not. Is it a really fun way to REMEMBER what you've learned? Definitely!
Through Time: Beijing (by Richard Platt and Manuela Cappon)
This book travels from ancient through modern China. Unlike the "The Street through Time" above, it doesn't stay stationary however. So on one spread you're looking at an ancient farm, on the next you're inside the Forbidden City.
It's the illustrations, once again, that set this book apart. My kids and I love to just look at them over and over again. There is so much detail . . . so many stories to imagine on each spread.
My Place (by Nadia Wheatley and Donna Rawlins)
Staying with "follow a place through history" theme, this classic book published over twenty years ago, details a plot of land in Australia as it changes over time.
What makes this book unique and particularly appealing is that it starts in the present day and works backwards for 200 years. On each spread, the text is written from the viewpoint of a child living during a certain era. The illustration is a map of the same area drawn from the child's viewpoint and focusing on the things that are important in that child's life.
It's delightful to discover the continuity between the eras, even as the specific use of the land changes over time.
Castle Diary: The Journal of Tobias Burgess (by Richard Platt and Christ Riddell)
The last book digresses from the "picture book detailing different eras." "Castle Diary" is a short, historical fiction read written in diary format. It details the life of one Tobias Burgess, a page living in thirteenth-century England. The humor is simple and fun. The history lessons are woven throughout the text.
Both Pepper (11) and Lima Bean (9) have loved it.
So . . . do you have a favorite history book that you have rescued from the library discard pile? Or that you rescued from languishing on a bookstore's shelf . . . or Amazon's massive warehouse? I'd love to hear about them.

By Nabina DasShe steps out of the black-and-yellow taxicab and looks around. Not because of any unfamiliarity. Mostly because she imagines someone else in these surroundings, not him. But is that even possible, this imagination? She hasn't even met him once. For the first time, they will walk into a room he has booked; for the first time she will know a person called Raj. So many handsome men called Raj have walked about the silver screen in and out of women's lives with coffee cups in hand. Lives of Jazz, the name she has given herself today.
Chandni Chowk is resplendent tonight. Perhaps every night it is like that. Jazz doesn't know much. She knows the locality but doesn't come here every day. Every day is not her day of "meeting".
When Raj asked casually, perhaps chewing on a cigar or hard cigarette, what do you do, Jazz had notched up her casualness and said school teaching was her passion, especially literature. She never understood though why he had to say, we might have a lot in common, then. All she gathered was that he was a high-flier, literally, travelling from conference to conference as a consultant. But when he rang her and asked her for a "meeting", he insisted she bring her favorite book over.
The room is not dank exactly, not fresh either. Maybe it is the walls, slightly rough in the texture of a coarse powder and painted a faint dream-blue colour with patches dark and light here and there. She has tiptoed to the window already and has seen that the street below their fourth floor. Chandni Chowk is gurgling tonight like a gem-studded night pigeon. Its wings are spread and taut in excitement or nervousness depending on what she is thinking moment by moment.
She feels Raj's steady stare at her calves, her back and her nape. Has he seen her face properly? She wonders if she should wash the perfume off her neck in case he wanted to nuzzle there. Her calves are smooth even without waxing. After two waxing sessions with friends from college several years ago, no hair grew back on her body. Lucky girl, J, friends squealed. You'll save your husband's money. What is this man's obsession with the back anyway, wonders Jazz, still feeling his glance sliding now from her wings to the small of the back right above where her buttocks start. Clearly, till now, he hasn't looked at her face as much.
Coffee arrives from the door and Raj opens it just enough apart following the knock. He collects it at the threshold while the room service lad quickly surveys the room like a weasel stuck at the door. No, he hasn't seen Jazz because she has now stepped into the bathroom with its pink lollipop-green cupcake motifs. She hears voices behind the little glass window above the shower, close to the ceiling. It is dark outside but the voices are rather clear. She wonders if it is a terrace above and there are people sitting out there who can see inside the bathroom through the layered-glass slides of the window opening, right into the shower.
Jazz, he calls, and she steps out into the room. Coffee, Jazz. He stirs the spoon and she quickly says, no sugar, no creamer, please. Now he looks at her face. Then nods. I thought so, Jazz.
"Sorry, this is not the best place I could find."
This sounds like an apology. But why he needs to apologise, she has no clue.
"Did you bring a book?"
Jazz has brought a book. She looks for it in her backpack. It takes her a while. The underwear straps and the nightwear laces obstruct her fingers. Then there are a couple of protein bars. For two occasions in the past—she hasn't added much to her experience in this area—there was no dinner, instead, there was the bitter taste of being touched with course fingers and on one occasion, listening to tasteless ugly jokes. This second person had an obsession, she realised. "Ma behen ma behen ma behen", and the refrain rang on and on in her head to turn into a "to be or not to be to be or not to be", and so on and so forth.
She finds the book past a plastic packet that crackles at the touch. Condoms are her responsibility too, she firmly believes. For a moment, though, she wonders if Raj also got his own pack. Should she ask? That is not being bold; that is being cautious. But he looks relaxed, sipping his coffee. Unlike the previous two, not rushed to pull her and peel her off from her skin.
"I was very curious about you," Raj says between the cup and the froth. "The hobbies you mentioned. Not really usual here."
Jazz wonders before her how many he had seen for a "meeting". Because he seems to know the "usual". It wouldn't be right to ask perhaps. It's not the rule of the business.
"I like the calves. Do you run?" He is slouching on the bed and waves at her to come sit next to him.
"N-no." She is startled. "Just some exercise, gym, you know." Her Capri pants sit snug at the mound of the muscle. She hesitates to take of her jutti sandals. Her nails are terrible and she was hoping there won't be an occasion when she will have to stretch her legs and sit beside him on the bed. It has not happened in the earlier meetings.
He notices her fidgeting and bends down and looks at her jutti sandals. They are beautiful, he thinks. Embroidered and beaded. Following his looks, Jazz remembers these shoes were bought from Chandni Chowk. One of the narrow lanes off the secondhand market of bags and tees and sandals. About the time when she became a teacher of English literature.
"Really not my type, this place," Raj says, as she finally settles down beside him. "Not yours too, I know. Look at the ceiling, like sawdust."
Of restless nights in one-night cheap hotels/And sawdust restaurants with oyster-shells, Jazz mutters silently.
He hasn't asked her to shower yet. She likes his eyes. They have crow's feet at the corners. And the mouth. Not exactly smiling but with the coffee froth still visible, the lips seem like zapota fruits freshly sliced. He picks up the book from her hands with two fingers and thumbs open to the first page. His left hand cradles her nape, exactly where he was looking intently a while ago.
Outside, Chandni Chowk is all glittering and chaos. Cycle rickshaws are ringing their bells to outdo each other, taxicabs are crawling and screeching on their clutches, pedestrians are hurling abuses at cars trying to swerve past their footfalls, a street stall belching out 'Chunari Chunari' in high decibels, and the sound of the hour's express train chugging in to the sky in a muffled roar and puff from the Old Delhi Railway Station at a distance. The men on the terrace above the shower window seem to have gone since there was nothing to watch from the glass opening. Chandni Chowk is now a dancer, whirling crazy, throwing off her jutti sandals and bangles and hair ties. There is just one voice that takes over. Gently, urgently.
Let us go then, you and I.
She will not ask what it is. They cradle the book together now, she wrapping her left arm on to his back.

What is Listeria and where does it come from?
Listeria monocytogenes is a pathogenic bacteria that can be found in soil, water, sprouts, and in the digestive tracts of poultry and cattle. Raw milk, products made from raw milk like soft cheeses, smoked seafood and processed meat can be contaminated with this bacteria.
Listeria can stand the cold and happily grows and multiplies on in the cold of the refrigerator. On the other hand, Listeria is killed by cooking and pasteurization (of milk).
Should we be afraid of Listeria in dog food?
When we get sick from Listeria we call it Listeriosis. Dogs and cats rarely get listeriosis and usually don't display any symptoms. As for humans: If you have a healthy and strong immune system you can eat contaminated food and not get sick. But when you do get Listeriosis it can be dangerous, even deadly.
"It's especially dangerous to pregnant women and newborns and those with weakened immune systems such as cancer or organ transplant patients" – Dr. Emilio DeBess, State's public health veterinarian in Statesmanjournal.com
Often symptoms appear short-term and flu-like with nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and fever. However, in susceptible patients these may become severe to very severe ranging from meningitis and brain abscesses to even death. Listeriosis can be cleared from your system by your own immune system, but treatment with antibiotics is indicated when you have an impaired immune system. Still, over 90 percent of people with listeriosis are hospitalized (source: FDA) and it's the 3rd leading cause of death from food poisoning (source: CDC).
Wash your hands for at least 20 seconds after handling raw dog food to prevent getting sick from bacteria.
In the United States about 1600 people are infected with Listeria each year resulting in 260 deaths. In the European Union we counted 2161 cases in 2014 continuing an upward trend since 2008. Now this is not from dog food contamination alone as several food sources, such as soft cheeses, are involved.
Dog food recalls involving Listeria
Stella & Chewy's ("S&C") pet food "Stella's Super Beef Dinner Morsels" was voluntarily recalled in the U.S. and Canada on december 11, 2015. This was a precautionary recall that was initiated after Listeria was found in a routine lab test. Since then the product line has been moved to a new manufacturing plant and policy changes have been made to prevent this from happening again.
"We also recalled several other products, which did not test positive, but were made on the same line on the same day so we pulled those products just to be safe as well." – Gregg Coccari, CEO Stella & Chewy's in Statesmanjournal.com
