This Friday, at Musehouse, 7940 Germantown Ave., Local columnist Hugh Gilmore will read selections from a new collection of short stories, titled Scenes from a Bookshop. The reading starts at 7 p.m.
Below is an interview with Gilmore about the new collection.
Q: You just published a book in December; how'd this come about so suddenly?
The quick answer to that is that I have been in a kind of frenzy of activity since I discovered the satisfactions of independent publishing.
After 10 years of daily writing, I had little to show for my efforts. I'd written three novels and most of a themed memoir and had failed to find an agent who would represent my work.
I hate to admit this, but I was getting very discouraged. I pictured myself as a guy who wrote well and wrote creatively, but as somebody who was destined to write and then stuff his work in a drawer. My only consolation was that I actually enjoy writing.
Q: So that's how the independent publishing came about?
A: Yes. Last September my friend, the poet and food writer, Lynn Hoffman, told me I was a fool for not at least putting my work on Kindle.
Actually, he suggested I should look into his online publisher, Smashwords.com. He nagged me to the point where I felt like I was a stubborn fool for not at least looking into it.
Once I did, I decided I'd rather go with Kindle (not that one needs to make a choice), since it seemed better known and was directly fed into Amazon.com, the nation's largest book seller.
Q: What's the story on the book you'll be reading from on Friday night?
"Malcolm's Wine" is 387 pages. Not everyone wants to make that kind of time and energy commitment to a work of fiction.
So I decided to put out a slim book that could be read quickly and didn't need a dedicated reader. I'd like to follow this "Scenes'" book with one or more sequels.
"Scenes from a Bookshop" is a collection of six stories based on events I witnessed or heard about when I was running my old and rare bookshop down on Chestnut Hill Avenue. Sometimes I call them "stories" (which falls ambiguously on the fiction/nonfiction line) and sometimes I call them "short stories." Either way, they're entertaining and the business particulars are 100 percent true to the way old books are bought and sold.
It's a behind-the-scenes book, meant to be entertaining and yet realistic about some of the sadder aspects of operating a business that depends on other people letting go of their precious books. Let's face it: people sell books or heirlooms because they need space or money, because someone has died, divorced or downsized.
Every old book has a history of ownership and the story of how that book has changed hands is quite fascinating. There are books I've held onto for no reason other than I was quite touched by an inscription. I just felt like I should be the caretaker of that book for a while so its history was appreciated. "Witnessed," is how I put it.
Q: Is there a theme tying these stories together?
Yes and no. I picked six good stories I'd written about the book selling business. Two have been published (in the Local!). I pulled them together in what I hope is a good order and then decided it would be fun to try to interweave a running story about the bookseller's love life.
He develops an escapist crush on a woman who came into the shop one day looking for a particular book of poetry. He told her he didn't do book searches.
She left. He missed her and hoped she'd come back. He even bought a copy of the book online in case she ever came back. The whole time he was pining for her he called her "The Poetry Lady."
Q: Does she come back?
You'll have to read the book. Or come to the reading on Friday and try to pry it out of me.
Hugh Gilmore will be reading from and signing his new book, "Scenes from a Bookshop" at Musehouse Literary Arts Center, 7940 Germantown Ave. May 25, Friday evening. at 7 p.m. Free admission. Copies of his books can be purchased.

Hoilman continued to swing a hot bat for the Bucs (22-17, 11-7 A-Sun) hitting .538 on the week (7-13) with three home runs and six RBI. In the Campbell series, Hoilman sparked the ETSU offense in the first game of the doubleheader crushing a solo home run over the fence in right center. Hoilman, a junior first base man, then scored the winning run as the Bucs rallied in the eighth. In the second game of the doubleheader sweep, Hoilman again came across to score the winning run after going 3-for-4 in the game. Hoilman drew four walks against Campbell and scored four runs and had an on base percentage of .571.
The Johnson City, Tenn. native now leads the conference in average (.452), slugging (.890), on base percentage (.542) and runs scored (55), and ranks among the top 10 in the league in hits (73), doubles (18), home runs (16), RBI (56), total bases (138) and walks (31).

Mission & Goals
The mission of Corrections Services is to enhance public safety through the safe and secure incarceration of offenders, effective probation/parole supervision and proven rehabilitative strategies that successfully reintegrate offenders into society, as well as to assist individuals and communities victimized by crime.
Goals and Priorities
Goals and priorities are built around the Department's commitment to public safety and rehabilitation and serve to guide our performance in carrying out our mission. These include:
Staff and Offender Safety
We provide for the safety of staff and offenders by maintaining an organized and disciplined system of operations which enhance the stability of all programs. All employees are provided training on the principles of the Code of Ethics of the American Correctional Association to demonstrate our commitment to professional and compassionate service.
Provision of Basic Services
We provide basic services relating to adequate food, clothing and shelter. We are further committed to delivering cost effective, quality health care services that maintain basic health and quality mental health services to contribute to the offender's satisfactory prison adjustment, and to diminish public risk presented by offenders upon release.
Opportunity for Change
We promote moral rehabilitation through program participation and will provide an environment for offenders which enables positive behavior change. This will be accomplished by making or identifying educational and rehabilitative opportunities available within the institution, or in the community for offenders under supervision, who demonstrate motivation for change and the desire to participate in such programs.
Opportunity for Making Amends
Through the availability of opportunities for making restitution and participating in community restorative initiatives, offenders will be provided a mechanism to compensate individuals and communities harmed by crime.
We are committed to developing partnerships throughout our communities to include victims, relevant groups and public and private agencies. We recognize the importance of the role of the community, the victim and the offender in the successful criminal justice system. By using evidence-based practices, we will increase compliance with conditions of parole supervision and the ability of the offenders to reintegrate, which will result in safely reducing recidivism among Louisiana parolees and probationers.

On Tuesday night, 14 first-round picks had not yet signed their rookie deals. The number is shrinking.
Four first-rounders have agreed to terms in the past 24 hours. The most recent is, according to Manish Mehta of the New York Daily News, Jets defensive lineman Sheldon Richardson.
Richardson, the 13th overall pick in the draft, joins Falcons cornerback Desmond Trufant (No. 22), Colts defensive end Bjeorn Werner (No. 24), and Packers defensive end Datone Jones (No. 26) as players who agreed to terms on Wednesday.
Still, 10 players remain unsigned, and holdouts could happen. Titans guard Chance Warmack, the 10th overall pick, technically becomes a holdout on Thursday, when his team has its first training-camp practice.
And, please, don't drop a comment arguing that a player isn't a holdout unless he's under contract. Whether under contract or not, he's holding out for a better offer.

The West University Home Tour – 2011
+After being on hiatus for several years, the West University Home Tour is finally back! The 2011 tour, benefiting the West University Elementary School and chaired by Holly Cauble and co chaired by Carlin Morstead, is this Sunday, May 1, from 1:00 pm until 5:00 pm. House stalkers take note: seven of West U's most interesting houses will be open to the public. This is one of the better tours in Houston since the houses are chosen because they are wonderfully decorated as opposed to being just the biggest or the newest house in the neighborhood. Most houses this year are either owned by interior designers – or were decorated by one of Houston's premier designers. I'm partial to the West U Home Tour because I live here and have attended it many times. One year the tour was particularly costly for me. After going through a beautiful Kurt Aichler house that had all white slipcovers, I came back home and of course, hated my fabrics. The following day, I sent all my upholstery out to be covered in white linen slipcovers too – and I've never looked back. I know I'm not the only one who takes inspiration from this tour – just listen to what the people next to you are saying!
As you might imagine, I was thrilled when Holly asked me to take pictures of all the houses – it was like giving me a free pass for major house stalking!! Today, I'm just going to show one room from each house – sort of a teaser to get you motivated to come out this Sunday. After the tour is over, several of the homeowners are allowing me to show their entire house for those readers who don't live in Houston. Enjoy!!
1. Sally and Mark Wheat – 2642 Tangley.
The first house is no stranger to Cote de Texas readers. Ever since I first showcased this house, Sally's kitchen has inspired countless kitchen remodelings. The first time I went to Sally's house it was all Belgian and French inspired with lots of gray and linen. I was slightly amazed to see how much the house has changed since then. Sally has completely redecorated her downstairs, using such mid century iconic pieces such as Milo Baughman dining room chairs and a Serge Mouille inspired lighting fixture in the living room. The changes are striking and so fresh for today. The only room that remains unchanged is her famous gray kitchen!!
Yes, this is Sally Wheat's newly decorated living room. David Hicks fabric covers two Parson styled chairs and a Serge Mouille light fixture replaces a table lamp. I'm crazy over the art work of Queen Elizabeth – it really sets the tone for the entire house. If you are inspired by Sally's kitchen – now is your chance to see it live and in person!!
2. Linda and Bob Walker – 2931 Albans
The Walker's house stunning steel window and front door set this stucco house apart and hint at the sophisticated design that is inside. The house is filled with a lifetime collection of antique furniture and accessories. Flowing from the front door is a center hall that runs throughout the house and ends at the spacious family room. A large garden that doubles as an outside room lets light flow throughout the first level. The breakfast room sits in a window filled space that becomes part of the garden. It is across from the totally remodeled kitchen. Linda's sister Ann Andrews helped with the interiors. My favorite room is the dining room which doubles as the library. This multipurpose space has floor to ceiling bookcases which create a welcoming atmosphere. The house has great ideas for empty nesters to incorporate into their own home.
The family room in greens and blues is an eclectic mix of antiques and contemporary pieces. The gorgeous fireplace is 18th century French and the rug is 21st century Jonathan Adler.
A Rose Tarlow print covers the sofa in the second seating area of the elegant family room. I really loved this house – it's so elegant and pretty and bright!
3. Mary Jane and Mike Gallagher – 2631 Barbara Lane.
The Gallagher's ivy clad house is an original to this street, built in the 1930s. The house is filled with beautiful antique furniture and large, oversized accessories that become focal points. Mary Jane is an interior designer and she favors a sparse European look in lieu of the English cluttered look. The rooms flow together visually and aesthetically. Though the house is quite stunning on its own, it's the newly built guest house casita in the back yard that steals the show and is worth the price of admission! Designed by Houston great, Kurt Aichler, the casita features a dramatic, two story dining room which overlooks the gardens and the main house. I have a feeling that everyone is going to rush home to see if they can build a casita like this in their own backyard! Not to be missed!!
Mary Jane's living room is sparingly furnished – she lets the accessories, like the oversized concrete statue, take center stage. A study in browns and white, this color scheme runs throughout the downstairs and even into the casita. I am in LOVE with that painting!!!
I just love this house. Here, is the other side of the living room. I soooo wish I could show you the casita too! It's fabulous!!
4. Mary Lynn and Dave Mannon- 2708 Pemberton
This house is located on the one of the prettiest boulevards in West University, a reminder of a more gracious time when large houses were built on estate sized lots. The Mannon's house was totally restored by architect Kirby Mears, while designer Eleanor Cummings has created its magazine-worthy interiors. It's colors are in soothing grays and creams which act as a backdrop to a beautiful collection of antiques. Despite its graciousness, the house is a family home to four young children and reaffirms that kids and antiques can co-inhabit. This house is creating a lot of buzz as no pre-tour pictures are available. I'm so sorry there aren't interior pictures, but everyone has told me this house is a knock-out.
5. Margaret Ann and Chad McEver – 3928 Marlowe St.
Margaret Ann, interior designer, and her husband Chad bought this 1992 rather typical West U house and turned it into something quite special. She added a front entry hall where there was none and put in a steel front door that completely updates the façade for the new century. The kitchen was totally remodeled as was the master bathroom. The house is decorated with touches of Mid Century modern mixed in with European antiques. I loved touring this house and looking at all the touches McEver has added. Everywhere you turn, there are ideas to take home to update a house. Margaret is a great talent – she's young, but her portfolio is already incredible.
Margaret installed this steel door and placed antique wood doors inside for privacy, when needed. These steel doors makes such a huge difference to the exterior and interior both. They are stunning!
The living room is a nod to Hollywood glam. Filled with contemporary art work and a collection of chairs from different eras, it sets the tone for the rest of the house. Bring a pad to write down all the ideas you could incorporate if you are looking to update a builder's West U home from the 90s. This house is filled with them!
6. Laurie and John Pearson – 3415 Albans
The Pearson's house, located on a double lot, is the largest house on the tour. Laurie, an interior designer, moved here with her husband and children from New Orleans after the devastation of Katrina. Today, they are completely settled into their new life in West University. The front door opens to a two story entry with a gracious winding staircase. The public rooms are dressy with luscious silk taffeta curtains and an array of beautiful fabrics. The spacious house has a nice spread-out feel to it, something that is quite rare for the typical town sized lots in West. U. The remodeled family room and kitchen, done in a deep taupe, overlooks a southern styled screened in porch and swimming pool. The master bedroom is especially beautiful in all cream and ivory with hints of celadon. The house is wonderfully decorated with an amazing attention to detail, there is so much to see here and admire.
The living room, though dressy, is and warm. Laurie has an unerring eye for detail – note the sofa with its scalloped trim and nailheads. The curtains are luscious silk taffeta. Here, and throughout the house, color is found in contemporary art work and in the area rug.
Looking at the other side of the living room, a piano sits in an attached niche. Everything is so beautiful – there is elegance everywhere your eye falls.
7. Heidi Dugan – 2735 Arbuckle Street
Popular Houston real estate agent Heidi Dugan wanted her new stucco house to have a decidedly Provencal atmosphere. Judging from the façade alone, Heidi got the French inspired look she wanted. Interior Designer Ginger Barber used authentic architectural elements such as antique lanterns and shutters, wood beams, and European floors to create this European aesthetic. The interiors are beautifully furnished with an array of casually slipcovered linens mixed with elegant antique furniture and accessories. The standout is the back yard by Thompson Hanson with its limestone fountain, swimming pool and dining area. This becomes an extra room and will, no doubt, be a favorite on the tour.
I couldn't decide which room to show you from Heidi's house – each one is prettier than the next. But – her dining room is especially beautiful with its crystal chandelier and trumeau. I love the fabric on the chairs and all the gilt! Soooo gorgeous. You are going to love, love, love this house!!!!
I hope you have enjoyed seeing a glimpse of all the houses. I am just dying to show you all the rooms! Each house is prettier than the next and each has so many ideas to take home with you! Look here in the coming weeks for more pictures of these houses. If you are in Houston, be sure to attend this Sunday from 1 pm to 5 pm.
$25 advance tickets are available at Rice Epicurean Markets Information Desk, Antiques & Interiors on Dunlavy, ABEJAS and the West University Elementary School office.
Tickets will be sold at all seven homes on the day of the tour for $30.

A coalition of organizations with an interest in health and wellness announced the formation Monday of a new breast cancer support group during a news conference at the Doris Jones Family Resource Building.
Sponsored by Niagara Falls Memorial Medical Center, the Niagara Falls Housing Authority, For Our Daughters Inc. and the Buffalo Niagara Witness Project, the support group is called 2U ABC, which stands for "To You it's all About Breast Cancer."
The group is open to all women with a focus on black women, who are statistically more likely than other women to die from breast cancer.
"The goal of this group is to not only support women with breast cancer and breast cancer survivors, but to educate women and men about preventive care and early detection tools," said Charles Walker, Memorial's director of community outreach.
The group's first meeting will be from 6 to 8 p.m. Monday, Nov. 26, at the Doris Jones Family Resource Building, 3001 Ninth St., Niagara Falls.
The leaders of 2U ABC are Mercedes Holloway and Tandra Parker. Holloway, who was diagnosed with breast cancer at age 28, will share her story of battling the disease as a young mother with two children.
That experience led to the formation of For Our Daughters, an organization that strives to enlighten and enrich women with knowledge to promote healthy living among children.
"Women who are newly diagnosed with breast cancer find themselves asking such questions as: 'What do I do next? How do I tell my children? How am I going make it?' " Holloway said. "Attending 2U ABC meetings and hearing the stories of those who have walked that path can help breast cancer patients cope with the treatments, the fear, even the complications. More importantly, it can give them hope."
Parker is currently undergoing treatment for breast cancer and shares survivorship with her sister, Cheryl. Her motto: "Never give up."
For more information about 2U ABC, call 716-957-TALK (957-8255).

Gorgeous pano image! Due to the limitation of the 46mm lens of the DP2M I find myself to shoot pano more with the camera to get wider view for landscape images. I like to know if you used vertical frames or horizontal frames to stitch this pano image? And did you use Nodal plate to move the camera a little bit behind the center of the tripod? Thanks!

In an earlier post, I mentioned that I had another award coming soon. Last night it was announced. Unfortunately, I couldn't be there. The Journey Takers received the Winchester Award from the Mormon History Association for the best thoroughly researched family or community history relating to the Mormon experience and published in 2010. The award was announced at their annual awards banquet held in conjunction with their conference, this year in St. George, UT.
You can see the Deseret News listing of the awards here. My award is listed on the second page. They gave out awards in several categories including some for graduate papers, thesis and dissertation awards, as well as a couple of other book awards.
I was very excited about the award – and sad I couldn't attend the banquet. I actually considered going for a while – looking into plane ticket prices etc. I've never been to the Mormon History Association conference, but I'm sure I would love it. Maybe someday….
One of the reasons I couldn't go was because my oldest (turning 11 on Monday) had her birthday party last night. It had a cat theme. Here are a couple of pictures.
Facepaint and headband ears turned all the kids into cats
My friend made this cute cat cake.
One of the funnest parts of the party was having the kids eat and drink like cats. They really got into it!
So, I could have been receiving this wonderful honor in St. George, but instead I was hot gluing fluffy pompoms to help the girls make their cat craft.
By the way, I plan to actually have a blog post with information for doing genealogy research soon! I have a post in mind about hints for finding your ancestors' hometowns, so stay tuned…I'm feeling my burnout fading. I'm not sure if this is due to the award or the fact that we are taking a little trip to Cape Ann for Memorial Day. Can't wait to sit on the sand (no way am I getting in that frigid water) on the beach – as long as it doesn't rain!
My blog combines my favorite things: family, writing, history, travel, and genealogy. Join me on my adventures as I have some fun new experiences and pass on some of the tips and resources I learn along the way.

Congratulations on your award! Enjoy the weekend on Cape Ann, I was born there and my ancsetors and family have lived there since the 1620s. I now live 30 miles away, just over the NH border, and my relatives think I'm SO FAR away! What a bunch of stick-in-the-mud Yankees.ReplyDelete

These have extensive areas for tent sites and powered sites for campervans with good quality communal amenities. They sometimes have tourist flats, on-site caravans and cabins.
Holiday parks in New Zealand are more than just camping grounds. With motel units, tent sites and powered sites for campervans, they offer great variety for most holiday needs. Kitchens and bathrooms are usually shared at a holiday park and there are often playgrounds on site for the children.
New Zealand Accommodation Options
New Zealand offers a wide selection of excellent apartment accommodation to suit your budget. New Zealand apartments include luxury apartments, resort-style apartments and self-contained, fully furnished apartments. NZ apartments are located throughout New Zealand.
These are exclusive retreats offering gourmet meals and fine wines to upmarket travellers and can be found near main tourist centres such as Rotorua and Queenstown. Other private lodges in remote wilderness settings cater mainly for hunters and fishermen.
These are normally large tourist complexes, which are part of international chains such as Hyatt, Novotel, Sheraton, Regent, Travelodge and Vacation hotels. In smaller towns some old-style hotels are public-license pubs which have rooms attached and these can represent good value for money. Hotel rooms in New Zealand provide facilities for tea and coffee making.
These normally come with well-equipped kitchens and all other amenities. Best Western, Budget and Flag can be found throughout the country along with other chains and private motels. Motels range from compact studios with microwave and tea-making facilities, to fully self-contained two or three bedroom suites at the upper end of the scale. Where there are more than two guests, additional adults usually pay $15-25 per night, making motels exceptionally good value for travelling groups or families. Upmarket motels are often described as Motor-Inns or Motor Lodges and have superior facilities including bars and restaurants.
These are ideal for couples who enjoy the personal experience of meeting Kiwis in their own environment. This market is burgeoning in New Zealand and the range of beautiful private houses and historic colonial homesteads in picturesque settings is staggering. They offer lodging and breakfast at one set price and are great value considering the personal attention and travelling advice that you get. Homestays offer a room in a private home and treat travellers as a house guest sharing breakfast with the host family. The rural equivalent is Farmstays, which function the same way, with the added bonus of observing or participating in farm activities if desired. Sumptuous home cooked evening meals with fresh farm produce are often provided for an extra charge.
These are commonly known as Backpackers and are found everywhere in New Zealand (over 400 at last count). They offer a dormitory bed and communal cooking, bathroom and lounge facilities at reasonable rates. Bunkrooms are designed for between four and ten people and may or may not be segregated. A few double and twin rooms are usually available. Many New Zealand hostels are in stunning settings, often surrounded by native bush, alpine slopes or golden sand beaches. Coin operated internet booths are common, as are TV rooms, barbeque areas, bike and kayak hire, travel and activity booking services. There is great camaraderie amongst travellers as they discuss their Kiwi adventures and experiences.

TV: I love you, I loathe you. As long as I can remember I've loved sitting in front of the television and watching something funny, dramatic, realistic or not so realistic. From the memory of sitting on the floor of my living room when I was 8 years old eating pizza and watching original episodes of Full House, Family Matters and Step by Step on TGIF, to the memory of watching episodes of The OC on my fancy HP computer I got for graduation in 2003 that allowed me to watch AND record TV shows (this is pre tivo folks!), to the more recent memory of watching myself become "too old" to watch my childhood favorite. A show that changed my life, determined where I wanted to live, helped make most of my wardrobe decisions between the years of 1990-2000. Yes, I'm talking about Beverly Hills 90210, the original. Someone please tell me the new 90210 is awful and cheesy and much more ridiculous than the first series and that this is not one of those "ah crap, there's something else I am now too old for" moments! If my age is the deciding factor, please don't tell me, let me just go peacefully into my Tuesday night without 90210, maybe ease myself in with a couple re-runs of the original, or maybe I can find those 90210 trading cards I once had…
Yup, that happened. One day, hopefully in the near future, when I am feeling strong and commanding, I will go to my DVR and I will delete the series recording "90210" and I will allow the show to go into the dark abyss of my cable box and try to forget it ever existed in my life. I will then fill the void with my favorite new show of the fall season, Hart of Dixie. From the fact that she was on The OC, to her great style, I am definitely a Rachel Bilson fan. I'm also a fan of anything that takes a city girl and puts her in the country, or vice-versa. Take for example one of my favorite movies "Sweet Home Alabama", taking a country girl, gone to the city, back to the country… sounds sort of familiar 😉 I feel similarly bonded with Hart of Dixie which takes a young doctor (Rachel Bilson) and dumps her in a small town in Alabama to take over her dead father's practice (although she didn't know it was her Dad, or that he was dead until she got there). I don't want to give the whole story away so my recommendation, watch for yourself and enjoy. Cute, quirky and a feel-good kinda show.
In all fairness I did give three other new fall shows a try before proclaiming my favorite of the new fall line up. Up All Night, which gave me horrible anxiety without any laughter. Revenge… I fell asleep on the couch… enough said. Whitney was a top contender before Hart of Dixie premiered, but I found the constant fake laughter of the live studio audience incredibly annoying and I hope the supporting cast kept in good graces at their previous restaurant gigs because they're going to need those jobs back any day now!!
So, instead of adding a plethora of new shows to my line-up I'll stick with my old favs and watch the final season of the real "Cougar-town" Desperate Housewives and live every Thursday to Thursday wondering if Derek and Meredith with be able to work it out on Grey's Anatomy.

Raising the bar on brain training
There are a lot of "brain games" out there.
BrainHQ is much more.
Rigorous training for better brain health
BrainHQ is an online brain-training system that represents the culmination of 30 years of research in neurological science and related medicine. It was designed by an international team of neuroscientists, led by Slippers Slippers Gifts Memory Animal Unicorn Girls Women Foam Plush Backless Novelty wIOq5Aa—a professor emeritus in neurophysiology, member of the National Academy of Sciences, co-inventor of the cochlear implant, and Kavli Prize laureate.
Cognitive training that's tailored to you
Changing your brain takes some work—so while the BrainHQ exercises are sometimes fun, they can also be difficult. But they always give a useful, meaningful workout to your unique brain. Using a special algorithm, each exercise adapts in difficulty as you work so that you always train at the optimum level for you—where you are most likely to make cognitive improvements.
It can fit into your life
It takes less than five minutes to do each BrainHQ level, so you can use it in tiny bites or long blocks, depending on your schedule. Plus you can use BrainHQ on almost any computer or mobile device, so you can take it on the go. If you want, you can set up personal training goals and have BrainHQ send you training reminders when you want them.
You train in one exercise for less than five minutes at a time.
Not Motorcycle Boot Talkin Taupe Women's Who's Rated Then you train at that exercise again—either right away or at a later time—until you are at your best. Sometimes that takes a few tries, and sometimes it takes many.
Along the way, the program provides lots of feedback on how you're doing—for each level, you can review your starting score, your improvement, your training effort, and much more.
You're not competing against others. You're competing against yourself, working to perform better than you did when you started.
BrainHQ has 29 online exercises that work out attention, brain speed, memory, RelaxedFoot Cotton Pair with Red Foam Organic Memory Storage Slippers Bag amp; 1 rAq1Uwr, navigation, and Pumps VogueZone009 Toe PU Womens Round Kitten Soft Material Heels Bandage with Brown Solid qqzOH.
If you want, you can have BrainHQ tell you exactly which exercises to do, and in which order: the personalized trainer feature, designed by scientists, continually measures your performance and serves up the exercises that will benefit you the most.
Or if you prefer, you can design your own program, choosing exercises and workouts that meet your personal interests, mood, and schedule.
More than 100 published scientific papers show the benefits of BrainHQ exercises and assessments. Most of these were independently conducted by scientists at respected universities, such as the University of California, Stanford, and Johns Hopkins.

Gotham Narrow
A new and economical Gotham, specifically designed for text.
Typefaces whose letterforms are rooted in the square and circle are known as "geometrics," and they're one of typography's great paradoxes. Their wide proportions and open shapes make them easy to read at text sizes, and a well-designed geometric can reinforce this clarity through careful attention to the design's internal proportions as well. (Gotham's large lowercase has dilated features, succinct ascenders and descenders, and a generous fit, which combine to make Gotham especially clear at text sizes and below.) But because geometrics are wider than average, they can be difficult to use in narrow columns, which is exactly where text most often appears.
With this puzzle in mind, we set about designing a companion for Gotham that would be specifically tuned for text settings. As important as the goal of improved space-efficiency was our desire to preserve Gotham's personality, a special challenge in a compact proportion that doesn't allow the pure geometries of Gotham's circles and squares. The result is Gotham Narrow, a font that's compact without feeling squeezed.
Using Gotham Narrow
Editorial designers will find Gotham Narrow versatile at any size. The core weights in the Gotham Narrow 1 package (Light, Book, Medium and Bold) flourish in text, and include the tabular figures and fractions necessary for even the most demanding applications. In larger sizes, both these styles and the extreme weights in the Gotham Narrow 2 package (Thin, Extra Light, Black and Ultra) are great for headlines.
Its clarity and space-efficiency also make Gotham Narrow useful online. We use Gotham Narrow Book throughout this site for captioning illustrations, where it anti-aliases crisply at a height of 9px. Because Gotham Narrow's widths vary only slightly with weight, they're useful for site navigation that includes rollovers: in a link's "hover" state, replacing a lighter weight of the font with a heavier one won't noticeably affect the width of the text.
Book Covers & Posters
Gotham Narrow is a natural choice for both book covers and posters, whose trim sizes echo the proportions of the fonts themselves. The Gotham Narrow 2 package includes the family's most dramatic weights, the elegant Thin and Extra Light, and the painterly Black and Ultra. But all sixteen styles of Gotham Narrow are responsive to subtle changes in composition, making them an especially expressive collection of fonts for display.
For brands that already use Gotham, adding Gotham Narrow is an ideal way to extend the versatility of the brand without compromising its guidelines. As a stylistic alternative, Gotham's new widths can be useful for signaling line extensions and accessories. And in visual merchandising and product packaging, Gotham Narrow's space-efficiency can make it indispensable for secondary typography such as ingredient lists, legal indicia, and other legislated markings.

Glad he's doing ok.
glad to here that, Mel.
Hope your holiday went well.
i hate family emergencies considering im 13 but every month one of my family memebers dies. my sister died last month a week b4 christmas and i loved her more than anything so my life sucks great big bat toes right now TT_TT
sorry if i make u guys depressed.
im sorry about your sister
J. Death, especially within the family happens when you least expect it. And being thirteen is one of the most important years of your life--you're maturing from childhood into adulthood, your beginning high school, and it is also when you realise how important those around you suddenly become. While I was in highschool, I lost friends, family members and teachers. You realise how fragile we are and how much we take for granted--all that you think is important changes when it matters between life and death. However, this is the time when you can grow and learn from these things. It is easy to allow negativity and depression set in, but in time you will become a much stronger individual. This is a hard step to climb, but know that there are those who understand and share the grief you feel. I know you are young, but read Seneca's Letters From a Stoic, or even C.S. Lewis' writings such as Mere Christianity, the Screwtape Letters, or The Great Divorce.
i hate family emergencies considering im 13 but every month one of my family memebers dies. my sister died last month a week b4 christmas and i loved her more than anything so my life sucks great big bat toes right now TT_TT
That is sad, how old your sister was?
sorry if i make u guys depressed.
don't say things like that...you tell us these things because you want to, and that you need to as well. There is nothing wrong with letting emotions out--especially in the culture we live in, we need to cry, laugh and share ourselves with others more.
my sis was 21
I'm so sorry J. *hugs* It always hurts to loose a loved one. Dont fear to express what just happens to be part of life right now. I won't speak for everyone, just in case, but i don't mind if you vent to your hearts content. Let it out, and you might feel a little better.
I agree with Si. Sometimes it feels good to just say everything there is to say about it. I do that. I keep a notebook and whenever I feel really bad I write whatever I want, no matter how dark, how depressing, how poor the spelling and grammar. Just telling someone, anyone, even a notebook, about everything is something everyone needs to do. You might cry, and it might hurt, but once you're done you take a deep breath, and as you breath out imagine all the bad leaving on that breath. And then you realize you feel better, emptier of everything that was bringing you pain. I am sorry for you, about your sister. I know it's hard to be strong right now, but we're all here to help you. We'll support you and hold you up, and in time, you'll realize you're able to walk on your own again.
Oh God, I've been away WAY too long. I feel horrible I am just hearing about this now! Oh Mel, I am so happy to hear your Dad is doing well!
Geez J sounds like you've had a bad time, you have my sympathies *hugs*.
Looks like Dad will be seeing an better specialist in late January so hopefully they can do something more for him than simply wait and see - fingers crossed!
Good that your father is fine, Mel.
i cried my eyes out in history class today. the reason is because i missed all my family memebers that died and alot of other reasons i rly dont wanna talk about
Aw, I'm sorry J. I wish there was more I could do than just say sorry. *hugs*
Yeah Go Me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I Got Over My Sadness!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yeah Go Me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I Got Over My Sadness!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am pleased to hear that. sadness can be a tough thing to overcome.
now im listening to "look what you've done" not "what i've done". for some reason "look what you've done" makes me happy
My Mom fell and hit her head and got a concussion, and I was the only one home. It was like 6 or 7 in the morning. That's why I havn't been on for so long. she's better now though. I know how you feel when you lose a sibling friend, I had a sister die several years ago, and a brother two years later. I never got to meet them either. It still makes me stop...

I know that when I'm watching chefs on TV prepare food without washing things, I cringe. Like plucking herbs off a plant and putting them right into a salad, dirt 'n all. I know it's because they're on camera and they are in a make believe world where everything is perfect and clean.
And I'm worried my salad at the restaurant isn't being washed either. On top of many other things I worry about at restaurants. It doesn't matter if the bag of salad you purchased says triple washed, you should still wash it, because even a little particle of bacteria can multiply exponentially in that bag. Especially in raw foods nowadays.
Paranoid yet? You will be, just as I am.
So I washed a colander of salad under the faucet. This is enough washing for most of us. Then I decided to see how much dirt still remained on the leaves.
I soaked the leaves in a big bowl of water for a few minutes, swishing it around.
Then I put the leaves back in the colander, and this was what was left over.
I mean, it's really not that big of a deal. I'm still alive. My husband is still alive. I never got sick eating my own salads I made at home. But I don't know many people who wash fruit before consuming it. So I wonder who even washes their salad at all.

General Comments: Futures closed mixed in consolidation trading. The market had been moving sharply lower in response to U.S. and Indian production estimates, but might try to find a base now as it has hit some support areas on the charts. Buyers have pulled away from the market and will wait for some kind of bottom to form before buying in a big way. Very hot weather conditions in China continue, and the weather in Corron areas is not really improving right now in that country. US crops remain behind the normal pace. The poor planting conditions early in the year have made the crop progress behind normal. Texas is dry, but will turn cooler later in the week. Weather for Cotton still appears good in India. Trends are down, but some short term recovery is possible given the magnitude of the down move seen last week.
Overnight News: The Delta will be dry and Southeast will see scattered showers and storms. Temperatures will average above normal in the Delta and near to above normal in the Southeast. Texas will see dry weather. Temperatures will average near to above normal. The USDA spot price is now 80.31 ct/lb. ICE said that certified Cotton stocks are now 0.028 million bales, from 0.034 million yesterday.
Chart Trends: Trends in Cotton are down with objectives of 8300 October. Support is at 83.80, 83.55, and 82.90 October, with resistance of 85.20, 86.00, and 86.50 October.
General Comments: Futures closed lower on long liquidation before the weekend. Short term trends are up and it is the high point of the hurricane season. There are still no real threats showing in the tropical Atlantic for Florida or Orange production. The weather in the tropics has started to show a little more life, but no real threats. The bulk of the tropical Atlantic is still seeing some very dry conditions and wind shear to prevent tropical storm development, but at least some systems that could become tropical are starting to appear. Growing conditions in the state of Florida remain mostly good. Showers are reported and conditions are said to be very good in almost the entire state. Temperatures are warm. Brazil is seeing near to above normal temperatures and mostly dry weather.
Overnight News: Florida weather forecasts call for some showers. Temperatures will average near normal.
Chart Trends: Trends in FCOJ are mixed. Support is at 133.00, 130.00, and 128.00 September, with resistance at 140.00, 142.00, and 145.00 September.

Garlic Crab Recipes
Vietnamese Crab Recipe: Cua Xao Sate
If you adore seafood as much as I do, you're in for a treat. This is a typical Vietnamese sauteed crab recipe called cua xào satế. The key to this recipe is in the preparation of the crab itself.
First, everything in the crab was used. What made the sauce was the use of "crab butter" as well as the corals from the inside of the crab. Then, I deep-fried the rest of the crabs and tossed them in a fragrant sauce called "satế," which consisted of garlic, ginger, hoisin sauce, glass noodles and plenty of fresh chiles.
Full Recipe...
Fermented Black Bean Crab Recipe
We had a giant seafood feast last weekend, and believe it or not, we cooked 12 whole crabs. The main flavoring of this dish was fermented black beans, which are very common in Asian cooking. I also added fresh green chiles and a lot of Thai basil leaves.
The crabs are prepared in two steps. First, they're fried, and then to finish them off, they are stir-fried with the fermented bean sauce and a bit of cooking wine. It gets a bit messy around the stove, but the result is worth the effort!
Full Recipe...
Sauteed Crab with Ginger and Basil
It never occurred to me until today that the reason I don't sauté crab that often is because the preparation can be very messy. Removing the abdominal flaps, separating the back fin, gathering the crab "butter" and corals from the inside of the crabs in a bowl and cracking the claws aren't the most glamorous of tasks. As I was chatting with the fish monger at my local market, he offered to clean the crabs for me and said he would do it whenever I feel like eating crab. How sweet of him!
I ran home and immediately sautéed the crab claws. To give the seafood dish a nice fragrance, I cooked the crab with freshly grated ginger, roasted garlic, sweet paprika, cayenne powder, a squeeze of lemon juice, sweet basil leaves and dry white wine. I also find that the addition of shallots and a bit of butter enhances just about any dish.
The crab was cooked perfectly; the meat came right out of the shell. And rather than getting messy eating crab at a restaurant, isn't it way better to pig out in the comfort of your own home?
Full Recipe...
Cua Rang Muoi (Vietnamese Salted Crab Recipe)
I love cooking seafood, but I don't always get the chance because of the number of vegetarians in my house. So when I do prepare seafood, I make a point of getting the freshest ingredients I can, and today that was crab.
Cua rang muối is one of my favorite recipes for preparing crab. The Vietnamese name literally translates to "crab toasted (roasted) in salt crust". The preparation is quite messy but the cooking time is fairly fast. The main ingredients are whole crabs (of course), freshly cracked black pepper, coarse sea salt, garlic, jalapeño chile peppers, green onions and tapioca starch. When cooked properly, the strong smell of seafood shouldn't bother anyone around with a seafood phobia. And for those of you who love seafood as much as I do, you're in for a treat!
Don't they look like dentist tools?
Full Recipe...
Vietnamese Tamarind Sweet Crab (Cua Rang Me)
Vietnamese-style tamarind crab (cua rang me in Vietnamese) is an incredibly simple, yet absolutely mouth-watering dish. The real key to making this dish successfully is to have the freshest crab you can get. The roughly cracked pieces of crab are stir fried in a sweet and sour tamarind sauce. The sauce is made of tamarind, chili, Thai basil and garlic. The Thai basil imparts an intense fragrance to the sauce, and by extension, to the crab.
We eat this dish family style. No pretense here. Just get a large platter, fill it with the tamarind crab and put it in the middle of your dinner table. We don't have enough meat eaters in my house, so I always call over a couple of family members or friends to share in the bounty. Roll up your sleeves, and dig in!

Twitter is a major vector space for such a pattern, we just need to iron out what the teaser would be. For instance, it could be something that everyone would like to see, but the only they can see it is if they have verifiable identity etc.. So rather than the typical: Come join Yet Another Social Network (YASN), it would be closer to the Cheese Club pattern or shared Pictures project. Another pattern, which worked, but for some reason vanished was the GGG post by TimBL where the comments section required you to have verifiable identity (this was before FOAF+SSL time).

This movie highlights a Supreme Court decision regarding freedom of the press, which greatly affects our lives. The movie left me thinking, and I believe it will leave you thinking, too. Go see it, and then think about how what we read in the newspapers would be different had the Supreme Court decided differently. The plot was well laid out, the acting excellent, and the glimpse into Watergate should be eye-opening, especially to generations that came after it.
Good movie, excellent actors. Some comments say that this is not movie to watch for entertainment,and it is not! This far above entertainment, it is about importance of free press and their role to protect us from crooked politicians and their doing.
Tom as Meryl are excellent as always!
Utterly boring
What I really liked was that it was a true story and told the truth about our governments involvement in the Vietnam war. We were being told one thing while something quite different was being planned. That war raged on for years while out govt. knew we could not win and so many of our young people died in vain. The hidden and secret paperwork was found and this story tells how it finally came to light in the "Post."
Okay, I get bored by movies A LOT and I loved this movie. Was there a ton of action and sex? No... but the movie speaks for itself. Worth a trip to the theatre.
This one will be gone quickly. Zzzzz. It was trying to revive the careers of two rapidly aging actors who best days are well behind them. I was counting the number of lights and speakers in the room rather than watching was on the screen. The lights and speakers were much more interesting.
Excellent movie. Would have preferred to have Graham portrayed as a little less wimpy. At that time I and many others were fearlessly starting our own woman-owned companies. However, her situation was a little different from ours. Good to see how she broke loose from the "little lady" stereotype and came into her own.
Was a personal disappointment for me but I expect it to be looked upon favorably by the academy.
Kind of slow. would have been better suited as a documentary but then they couldn't have interjected any propaganda into it if it was exclusively factual.
Another well done performance by Hanks but Streep taints the performance by her presence.

I played club in college and have still kept up. I haven't played much in the past few months so I'd say I'm down to probably 4/4.5 level. With a couple good hitting partners, could easily get back to being higher than that.
If anyone is looking to pick up for their team, or wants a regular hitting partner, I'm pretty flexible on times that I can hit during the day/week

Replies to This Discussion
I just saw your las reply. I play at the 4.5 level. I get into town Sunday evening, and will be looking to hit a couple of times per week.
I will be in town from Sunday to Thursday afternoon every week, and in Atlanta on the weekends.
I can hit this sunday, and a couple of nights after that.
Hi Eric,
This is Krishna. I'm around 3 to 3.5
My email id : firstname.lastname@example.com.
I can play after 5.30 PM during week days. And anytime on week ends. I can play in courts close to Thomas Jefferson / Quincy Park.
Hi- Want to hit sometime soon? I'm 27yo, 4.5, usually play twice per week. I live in Arlington but work in Bethesda, depending where's local for you. Let me know a good time for you. -Jesse
Hey man, sorry I'm just getting to this now, but I was unexpectedly out of the country for much of the fall. I live in Crystal City and am looking for regular hitting partners in the Arlington area. Would you be interested in hitting tomorrow (Sunday) or this week at all?

Get directions to Wabash College Chapel
As Wabash celebrates the 175th anniversary of the College's founding, the Wabash College Chapel organ is making a little history of its own.
More than 200 members of the international Organ Historical Society will arrive on campus Tuesday afternoon, July 17, to tour the chapel and hear a brief concert performed on the organ at 4:20 p.m.
St. Paul Catholic Church Music Director Stephen Schnurr of Valparaiso will present the concert on the Chapel's Aeolian-Skinner organ, which was dedicated in October 1935 and rededicated in 1999 after being refurbished. The instrument, played for many college events and featured annually during the College's Roger Ide Organ Recital, will also be included in a book Schnurr is writing about historic organs of the United States.
The Society, which promotes historic and musical interest in American organ building through collection, preservation, its quarterly journal, The Tracker, and public concerts throughout the U.S., is holding its national meeting in Indianapolis this week.

State: Fourth Minnesota Resident has Meningitis
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — There is a fourth Minnesota resident who has meningitis linked to tainted steroids.
The Minnesota Department of Health announced the fourth case Saturday.
The state has said two of the three Minnesota women who developed meningitis had been released from the hospital and the third was expected to leave soon.
Health officials say more than 800 Minnesotans may have been exposed to the tainted steroids when they received spinal injections at two Twin Cities clinics, Medical Advanced Pain Specialists and the Minnesota Surgery Center.
The drug has sickened more than 180 people in 12 states, killing 14.
New England Compounding Center in Framingham, Mass., recalled about 17,000 vials of the steroid after investigators found three lots were contaminated by a fungus that can cause meningitis and strokes.

Based on a recent patent filing, it looks as if Apple may be looking at even more ways to buy and share apps. This approach would be a bit more social as it would allow your friends to share applications with you that they think you may enjoy. This could work through the network, through a cloud service, or through IR.
The patent explains a way in which you could have a list of applications that are able to be shared. When sharing, the person receiving the recommendation would have access to either the full apps with a trial period limit, a demo, or a restricted (lite) version. I'm assuming this would probably depend on each developer's preference. The user would see a list of applications to share and they could drag them to a specified location in order to share them with others.
There is also talk of this being a way for Apple to offer incentives to people who refer applications to others. Whether those incentives would include App Store credit, promotional material, discounts or something else isn't clear. Regardless what it is, it's definitely something I could see as a good model to boost App Store sales even further.
The patent also shows that this model could be used across several devices including iPhones, iPod Touches, iPads, and Mac computer platforms. This makes sense considering Mac will now offer an App Store as well. We can only assume a lot of apps will offer compatibility with Macs in the future.
Is this a feature you think you'd use? I frequently get family and friends asking for app recommendations and this could potentially make my life a bit easier when it comes to sending them a list of apps I recommend. I could simply send them straight to their device. And if Apple wants to give me some perks for doing so, even better!
