What did you like best about Elantris? What did you like least?
I love all things Sanderson, and the uniqueness of this story perfectly on par with all he does.
He sounds like a used car sales man. Every sentence sounds like a pitch. He has no emotion other than smug.
Thoughtful beginning, horribly unsatisfying ending
Bible literalists.
Dean had a great story from the beginning, filled with beautiful prose, interesting setup and well placed flash backs. But the ending was just so.... absurd. You really need to be a bible literalist for it to make even a bit of sense, creative license included. So many plot devices were just abandoned and so many characters were just... not used to their potential.
MacLeod Andrews voice really adds a lot to the youthful, jovial, innocent personality of the main character, he's a great match to this.
Disappointment, for sure. Though initially it was anger and sympathy for the main character.

Red Wings, Blackhawks square off in Chicago | Fox News
Red Wings, Blackhawks square off in Chicago
Detroit will try to close the gap in the Central Division place Chicago Blackhawks in an Original Six clash at the United Center.
The Blackhawks enter tonight tied with Vancouver with an NHL-best 50 points, putting them three ahead of the Red Wings for division bragging rights.
This evening's matchup marks the first of six encounters between the old rivals this season. Chicago won four of the six meetings against the Red Wings last year, but Detroit has come out on top in four of its last five trips to the Windy City. The clubs will face each other two more times in the span of the next few weeks, as Chicago is set to host another meeting on Jan. 8 before the Red Wings welcome the Blackhawks on Jan. 14.
Detroit enters tonight off of consecutive victories and Mike Babcock's club is coming off Tuesday's 3-2 decision over visiting St. Louis. After trailing the Blues by a 2-1 score after 40 minutes, Pavel Datsyuk and Niklas Kronwall scored 56 seconds apart in the third period to lift Detroit to the close win over another division rival.
Nicklas Lidstrom had the other goal for Detroit, which was playing on back-to- back nights after Monday's 4-1 triumph in Nashville. Jimmy Howard stopped 29 shots for the Red Wings, improving his record to 22-8-1 this season.
"There was a lot of intensity out there, two competitive teams," Lidstrom said. "They carried the play early on. We stuck with it. We got a power play to get us back in the game and in the third period we stayed patient, waited for our chances and capitalized on them."
The win over the Blues was Detroit's 11th straight home victory, but the club is just 9-10-0 as the visiting team this year compared to its stellar 14-2-1 mark in Motown.
Detroit will be without forward Tomas Holmstrom for a third straight game tonight after he was placed on injured reserve yesterday with a groin injury. The 38-year-old Swede has six goals and 15 points in 33 games this season and will be replaced on Detroit's roster by forward Gustav Nyquist, who was recalled from Grand Rapids of the AHL.
In other injury news for the Red Wings, forward Darren Helm will sit out tonight's game and Saturday's home test against St. Louis due to a groin injury.
The Blackhawks hope to bounce back from a shutout loss tonight after getting blanked Wednesday by the visiting Los Angeles Kings. The 2-0 setback dropped Chicago to 2-1 on its five-game homestand, but the Blackhawks are still boasting a strong 13-3-3 record on home ice this year.
Jonathan Quick posted 38 saves for his fifth shutout of the season for the Kings, who received goals from Jarret Stoll and Trent Hunter.
Corey Crawford gave up both goals on 38 shots for the Blackhawks, who came into the game having won seven of eight.
"We had some good chances tonight, their guy just came up with some good stops," said Chicago head coach Joel Quenneville. "Both goalies made several great chances tonight."
Blackhawks forward Dan Carcillo is expected to be activated from injured reserve in time to play tonight. The enforcer sat out the previous six games with an upper body injury.

Art/Architecture; To the Ancestors Of Bollywood, Art Was Slam-Bang - The New York Times
Arts|Art/Architecture; To the Ancestors Of Bollywood, Art Was Slam-Bang
Art/Architecture; To the Ancestors Of Bollywood, Art Was Slam-Bang
By HOLLAND COTTERNOV. 10, 2002
IF the Great Books were judged great by size and illustrations alone, ''Hamzanama,'' or ''Story of Hamza,'' from 16th-century India would rank right up there. Don't bother going to Amazon.com for a copy, though. Only one exists; it is a mere fragment of the original; and many of its finest pages are at the Brooklyn Museum of Art in one of the more spectacular manuscript shows of recent New York seasons.The book was commissioned by the Mughal emperor Akbar when he took control of what is now northern India in 1556. He was 14 and like most teenagers was addicted to adventure stories. His favorite -- he couldn't get enough of it -- was the tale of the mythical warrior Amir Hamza, whose close encounters with demons, dragons and giants come straight from folk tradition, but whose valiant and circumspect character corresponds to a Persian ideal of the princely hero.The Mughal dynasty originated in Afghanistan, and its emperors were enchanted by Persian culture. It was their model for what was urbane and classy in art. Akbar's father, Humayan, spent instructive years at the Persian court while in exile from India. When he returned to Delhi in 1544, he brought back, along with his son, some of the top Persian manuscript painters of the day and charged them with organizing an imperial studio for the production of luxury books.Personally, Humayan was a bit of a mess. He drank too much and died after tumbling down his library stairs. Akbar, by contrast, was supremely together in every way except maybe one: possibly as a result of severe dyslexia, he remained illiterate all his life. He knew what he wanted, and he wanted his ''Hamzanama'' to be a wonder to the world, which it was and, even in a fragmentary state, still is. Continue reading the main story
It was a staggering project. According to contemporary accounts, the book took more than 15 years to complete. Dozens of artists labored over it, assembly-line fashion, in a workshop established by Mir Sayyid Ali and Abd al-Samad, two imported Persian masters.
As senior artists, they were entrusted with providing the initial compositions and painting the faces of the main figures. Their subordinates contributed landscapes, architectural forms, minor figures and ornamental fillips according to their specialties. Significantly, Persian and Indian artists, both Muslim and Hindu, worked side by side. By exchanging and mingling influences they created a distinctively hybrid Mughal style.The book stretched into 14 volumes with some 1,400 pictures, each backed by a sheet of Persian text that actually referred to whatever picture followed it. These paintings were not in any sense ''miniatures''; each was about two feet high. Nor was the book conceived for one-on-one viewing. It was meant to be seen by several people simultaneously. As befitted a story that originated in oral literature, the text was recited aloud, with improvised flourishes and interjections, as the pages were slowly turned for the audience.What happened to this outsize book, which everyone acknowledged to be a treasure? During Akbar's half-century reign, his interests turned to other things: religious and scientific treatises, Hindu epics. His successors created new manuscripts of their own. Still, the fame of the ''Hamzanama'' lingered on. When Delhi was captured by Persian forces in the 18th century, the defeated Mughal ruler is said to have begged his captors to take anything they wanted, including the fabled peacock throne of Shah Jahan, but to leave to him just one thing, the ''Hamzanama.'' Nothing doing, they said, and took the book.Presumably, that's how at least part of it ended up in Iran, while other parts stayed in India. In the 19th century, a British traveler to Kashmir found pages being used to patch windows in a shop in Srinagar; they went to the Victoria and Albert Museum. Other pages displayed in the Persian pavilion at the Vienna World's Fair of 1873 seem to have been bought by the Austrian government and placed in what is now the Austrian Museum of Applied Arts/Contemporary Art. Nine pages came to the Brooklyn Museum in 1924, but astonishingly, in 1949, five of them were sold and dispersed.Of the 200 or so paintings now known to exist, more than half are in the Brooklyn show, ''The Adventures of Hamza.'' Organized by the art historian John Seyller, the exhibition originally appeared last summer at the Arthur M. Sackler Gallery, Smithsonian Institution, in Washington, where it was spread over two floors. In Brooklyn it is far more compactly installed, and for that reason ''reads'' more like a book. You can even visually sort of flip through it if you walk quickly through the show.Even so, it is a book with far too many sections missing to have any sense of narrative coherence. The Brooklyn curators -- Amy Poster, the chairwoman of the museum's department of Asian art, and Aimée Froom, associate curator of Islamic art -- label certain discrete episodes with the equivalent of chapter heads, but otherwise they wisely let the individual pictures do their dramatic thing.
The show opens with a handful of pre-Mughal Persian and Indian paintings, to suggest the separate stylistic ingredients of the Mughal style to come. Then the dramatis personae are introduced.The most prominent of them is, of course, the title character, who was based on two prototypes, both named Hamza. One was a swashbuckling folk hero renowned for his world travels and extravagant exploits. The other was an uncle of the prophet Muhammad, who became an ardent proselytizer of the Muslim faith and died a religious martyr in 625. His presence gives the book an overtly pro-Islamic cast: bad guys are routinely referred to as ''infidels'' who sometimes redeem themselves by converting. But the primary emphasis, and you know this is what Akbar cared about, is on high adventure.And what exactly happens? In a sense, the book is, like ''Seinfeld,'' about nothing, but nothing spun out at great length and in minute and entertaining detail. Hamza rides into battle and cuts down his foes with debonair ease; heads roll, guts spill, blood flows, copiously but unseriously. Hamza is imprisoned, then rescued. Villains flee, and are caught, and get away. Evil is punished; virtue is rewarded; and the cycle starts all over again in a never-never land of lush trees, churning seas, pretty pink mountains and stage-flat fortresses, a world that is part Persia, part India and all myth.
It is also densely populated. People are constantly on top of one another, jostling, upset, ecstatic, dazed. Hamza has a large contingent of loyal followers, including brothers, sons, courtiers, a Xena the Warrior Princess of a daughter-in-law named Mihrdukht, and a magical, three-eyed horse named Ashqar. Ranged against them are freakish creatures of all kinds, among them European and Iranian kings; Zoroastrian priests; devils with tusks and crossed eyes; and the arch villain Zumurrud Shah, a colossal figure who appears in several remarkable paintings.In one, he appears exhausted and distraught as he flees Hamza's wrath. His eyes are fixed in an unfocused stare, his mouth in a bizarre, smilelike grimace as diminutive retainers crowd around him, hugging his beard, touching his knees. Nearby, Indian women in saris are weeping; mountains buck and sway. In a second, more skillfully executed and better preserved picture, the pursuit continues, but this time Zumurrud Shah is literally propelled into flight: he leaps into the air, over the dome of a minaret and out the top of the painting.The show's excellent catalog -- with 86 reproductions and essays by Mr. Seyller, Ebba Koch and Antoinette Owen, the museum's senior paper conservator -- attributes this last image to the court artists Shravana and Madhava Khurd, two of several distinctive artists whose work recurs throughout the ''Hamzanama.''Among the best of them is Kesava Dasa, who had a special flair for depicting spatial depth, volume and textural effects. Another, Dasavanta, was one of the most innovative Mughal artists ever for his audacious intermingling of naturalistic and decorative forms. He puts fleshed-out, volumetric bodies in flat-as-a-pancake, aerial-view settings and makes the results seem perfectly logical in some crazy, eye-boggling way. Check out ''Umar Slays a Dragon With Naphtha,'' or ''Badi'Uzzaman Fights Iraj to a Draw,'' both of which are in part attributed to him, and you'll see what I mean.Indeed, one of the pleasures of the show lies in trying to identify the hands and minds of these artists from painting to painting. Another is in tracking the development of the workshop as a whole, from earlyish pictures in which the Persian and Indian elements coexist as separate elements, to others -- many of the surviving pictures are from later volumes -- in which they flow seamlessly together in this strange new Mughal mix.Most of all, it's fun just to relax into this ingeniously seriocomic alternative universe. Akbar's appetite for youthful fantasy may eventually have cooled, but his ''Hamzanama'' reflects something of his essential character, and the character of Mughal art as a whole, divided in its loyalties between sweetness and cruelty, adolescence and adulthood, the abject real and the kooky ideal. Audiences of 21st-century America should feel right at home with this mix. It defines our own pop culture to a T. Continue reading the main story

Bernanke reiterated that the Fed, given its current outlook for the economy, expects to keep its target short-term interest rate exceptionally low through late 2014. He stressed that "this guidance is not an unconditional promise." Rather, it's what economists call "outlook guidance." The Fed reserves the right to take away the stimulus before late 2014 if its outlook for the economy improves.
Some influential economists -- including Bloomberg View columnists Justin Wolfers and Betsey Stevenson and, to some extent, Columbia University's Michael Woodford, who is also scheduled to speak today at Jackson Hole -- have suggested that the Fed could have a lot more impact by going one step further: Make an unconditional promise to keep rates low for a certain period, even if the economy recovers. To be sure, such a commitment would tie the Fed's hands if the economy improved and inflation started to rise. In the current environment, that seems a much less troubling outcome than the possibility that long-term unemployment will permanently impair the economy's ability to grow.
So far, the conversation about further stimulus has focused largely on whether the Fed might embark on a third round of the bond-buying known as quantitative easing. Perhaps the central bank's commitment issues deserve more attention.

I stayed here 7 months ago so I don't remember the small details. That said, the 1 person Studio Room is TINY. It's fine just to sleep for a night but literally no space to walk around. The hotel lobby and hallways were very nice, and everything was clean, including the room. I did not use any of the amenities or have breakfast there (not sure that they offer it..).I would consider staying here again but would get a bigger room if the price is right.

Stayed here with friends for a weekend, we had a 2 bedroom apartment for 4 people. The apartment was MASSIVE and had great facilities -it was very comfortable, and spotlessly clean. The location was great for us, no alcohol served on site (which we knew before booking) but just a short walk across the road to Barasti beach bar! The staff were all friendly and helpful, room service was great, I would definitely reccommend the hotel to anyone looking at the marina area of Dubai.

This hotel is very good and it's reviews are currently being affected by all theconstruction and road works nearby. We found it a little difficult to walk to the Marinadue to this, though the hotel is well placed to get to the Marina.The room was fantastic and HUGE we could lose the kids in that place!There's no alcohol on the premises but I guess that's to be expected and respected ina Muslim country. There's a Carrefour supermarket nearby which is very useful.I hope the construction is complete soon and this property will gainsome better reviews.

My husband, myself and his parents stayed in room 3205 the size was great (which allowed my in-laws to relax in comfort after days out) Master room with en-suite, twin room, full bathroom, shower room, cloakroom, large lounge with dining area and very large kitchen (with everythign you would need) and the view was amazing over the Palm, Burj Al Arab and Dubai city. The staff at reception, concierge and restaurant (great food) were amazingly helpful always, however I did find house keeping an issue, I had to phone them every day to get the room cleaned not what I would expect for a 5* this is why the Tamani has a 4 rating from me and not a 5.There are road works on going outside the hotel however if you follow the rules of the road, i.e. when the GREEN MAN lights yo can cross the road it is very safe to do so, please note at the crossing junctions you have what looks like zebra crossing however they do not work the same way as in the UK, cars rarely stop for you, my advice wait for the green man.The outside pool is a good size and what you may of read in previous reviews it does get the sun, plus they have a in-door heated pool. The hotel does not have a bar but you can go to the Le Meridian across the road has a lovely bar area out side, or the Westin but your only in a courtyard (Le Meridian is better) The hotel is in a great location for all amenities, no need to get transfers as taxi's are all metered and do not rip you off.I would recommend this hotel to any one

In Melbourne, A Silly Day At the Races - The New York Times
Archives|In Melbourne, A Silly Day At the Races
https://nyti.ms/29znSsf
In Melbourne, A Silly Day At the Races
A GIRL in a swimming costume under a fur coat climbed aboard the green tram. Her boyfriend was on roller skates and wore long red socks and a red cap. There were men in top hats and the Australian ''digger's'' slouch hat with its brim upturned on one side. One person had a pig's face as a mask.
I was gliding along a downtown boulevard of Australia's second largest city, Melbourne, on a spring morning of the premier horse race in a nation of gamblers: the Melbourne Cup. This is the great day of the year in the graceful state capital of Victoria. And throughout Down Under, Cup Day, this year Nov. 1, is as much of a National Day as the formal Australia Day on Jan. 26.
The Melbourne Cup is a grueling handicap race of just under two miles for some 20 thoroughbreds aged 3 to 6 years. Seven other races take place during the afternoon involving a total of 120 horses.
''The Melbourne Cup is one of the great races, along with the Epsom Derby and the Kentucky Derby,'' said Les Carlyon, a racing columnist for The Age, a Melbourne daily, and The Sydney Morning Herald who has seen more than 30 Cups. The best comparison, he said, is probably with the Grand National steeplechase race in England, ''because it can be won by any horse.''
Made cheerful by a holiday spirit that grips all Melbourne at Cup time, I was heading, like some 80,000 others, for Flemington Racecourse four miles north of the city. Fellow passengers were consuming beer, fried chicken and champagne. A usually stern Melbourne tram, laden with racegoers, had become a picnic ground.
One grizzled old lady wore a broad hat adorned with felt cutouts of Australian birds, which bobbed around as her sharp eyes flashed down to her racing guide. Her hair was perfectly combed, her makeup impeccable; the scent of her perfume reached far down the car. With a trembling hand she marked in red pencil her chosen horses. What effort and preparation she has put into coming to the Cup!
Among the passengers were senior citizens looked determined to have a fling. They showed their senior-citizen passes, then went back to the racing pages of The Sun, a tabloid. They were seeking clues to a winning horse and, they may have hoped, to a whole new future in a mansion in the exclusive Toorak section of Melbourne or a condo on the blue Queensland Coast.
Melbourne has long been considered the most staid of the big Australian cities. Its 2.9 million residents are known to their fellow Australians as serious, prudent people who save money and go to church and are sometimes as inscrutable as their city's weather. But on Cup Day, Melbourne, a city of gray civility, goes silly, displaying an unaccustomed zaniness. In many ways a socially fragmented city, like Boston, Melbourne on Cup Day shows itself capable of being a single family.
At the same time, the Puritans-at-play atmosphere is not that of an ordinary carnival. A certain tension accompanies the excitement and gambling fever insures an undercurrent of earnestness.
In Australia, which was settled not by idealists but by convicts, the great festivals do not have to do with religion or politics. They celebrate outdoor, physical striving. There is Anzac Day, when a tragic battle of World War I is remembered. There are the merry days of each state capital's Royal Agricultural Show, when farmers come to town to display their wool and wheat and parade their cattle and sheep. Then there are the sporting contests, chief among them the Grand Final of the Melbourne football season, in September, and, of course, the Melbourne Cup.
In Melbourne celebration of the Cup is unavoidable, like closed shops on Sundays, criticism of Sydney and the hot north wind and blow flies of midsummer. ''Are you going?'' is the only question anyone in Melbourne asks as the race, the first Tuesday of November, approaches.
Wherever you go in Australia on Cup Day - Northern Territory's vast sheep stations, Perth's hot suburbs, Tasmania's green valleys, Queensland's soporific beaches, Canberra's Government offices, Sydney's rambunctious pubs - people will be holding parties and talking about the horses. For the three or four magic minutes of the Cup itself they will stare silently at a television or radio.
No Australian Prime Minister, least of all Bob Hawke, a sporting buff who has held the post since 1983, would dare transact business or speak of policy on Cup Day. State and federal ministers flock to Flemington, offering any excuse that pops into their head for the trip to Melbourne.
This November's Cup Day may be the biggest and best ever, for during 1988 Australia is celebrating 200 years of European settlement, and Melbourne, though its history does not go back the full two centuries as Sydney's does, is unlikely to miss any opportunity to make its cup runneth over for Australia's sake.
That pervasive beverage of Australia, Foster's beer, sponsors the Cup. Two great cross-class religions of Australia, horse racing and beer, are conjoined. The fellowship, equality and freedom that underlie the Australian brand of democracy are almost as tangible as the funny hats, liquor bottles, and picnic hampers.
The racecourse will become the crossroads of Australia, with people arriving from Sydney, Adelaide, the West and Queensland, as well as from Japan, the United States, Britain, Hong Kong and other places around the world.
On a recent Cup Day I arrived at Flemington and paid $8.60 for admission to the general enclosure (all prices are in American dollars; the Australian dollar is worth 78 cents). Opened in 1840, the racecourse has a six-furlong straight that is large and roomy, giving every horse a chance.
It was a morning of insipid sun, typical of Melbourne spring, itself as much of a gamble as any horse race. But when the high white clouds floated away there was a stab of warmth to the sun's rays.
Flemington reminded me both of Boston's Beacon Hill and the cheerful vulgarity of England's resort towns. There was a swirl of gaiety and ugliness, the formal and the bizarre.
For the first hour the only thing I could not see was a horse, and only for one brief moment, as I went by the stalls to see the waiting thoroughbreds, did the smell of horses eclipse that of food and drink.
If Melbourne people tend to stay home in their houses and gardens, when they do go out it is in extravagant numbers and with careful preparation. On the smooth lawns within the Members' Stand, women in the year's finest gowns received tulip glasses of champagne and large oysters on the shell from the white-gloved hands of uniformed waiters they had brought with them for the day.
Humbler ''patrons'' (as everyone is called) flocked to mobile kitchens offering Indian curry, Big Macs, hot dogs and Dim Sum. A ''Pieologist'' sold 60 varieties of pie, with every filling known to man.
The plain living Premier of Victoria, John Cain, has said that top hat and tails should not be worn at festivities surrounding the Cup. Melbourne society scoffed, taking his announcement as a sign of his Labor Party's social insecurity. On the day of my visit the ladies and gentlemen of Melbourne were continuing to dress, and overdress, for the occasion.
I saw two transvestites dressed in empresses' robes of the Tang dynasty, with pointed shoulders and bodices encrusted with cheap stones. A heavily painted woman labored under a hat topped by 40 roses. A man wore a lampshade on his head; a schoolgirl padded by on hen's feet.
A century ago British visitors marveled that in Melbourne racing was a pastime enjoyed by all segments of society. According to an observer in 1888, ''The people on the flat [ were ] just as content with themselves as the people on the Lawn.'' It is still the same. Even in a time of economic troubles, in which unemployed youths and senior citizens have been disadvantaged, on Cup Day everyone from the general enclosure (once known as ''the flat''), to the Lawn, Hill and Members' Stands, seems to feel included.
A pretty blond in a hat three feet wide toppled toward me, recovered, smiled wetly and then murmured, ''My sister's seen me drunker than this.'' As my companions and I rested on a grassy mound, a woman beside me had beer accidentally tipped on to her white dress. She looked to the sky, then at me, and said through clenched teeth, ''With relatives like this, you really need friends.''
The elite were here, and the workers were here, and though the two groups were in different enclosures the mixture is part of the excitement. In its dress the elite took a step torward garishness; the workers tried formal clothes half in a spirit of caricature. The Cup, a handicap race, gives ordinary horses a chance. The betting and social whirl of Cup Day give ordinary people a chance too.
I saw at last some real racing people, lean and tough like greyhounds, smoking furiously in their nervousness, the women among them seeming to take their manner and coloration from the men.
By the betting stands, I walked by bookmakers in hats and cardigans, consulting their lists with dour expressions, checking the offering prices. One young assistant, dressed in brown with a cigarette at the corner of his mouth, stood with his rolls of money secured by rubber bands at the ready in an old-fashioned Gladstone bag.
Horses reached Australia with the First Fleet in 1788. Used for hunting and by the military, they were also soon set to racing. The Melbourne Cup began in 1861, when the gold rushes of the 1850's had pumped wealth and people into Melbourne - a town of 20,000 in 1850 had become a city of 140,000 by 1860.
By 1873 the crowd turning out for the Cup had reached 70,000, and by the 1880's some 100,000. Even the depressions of the 1890's and 1930's did not drastically reduce attendance or the amount of money gambled. The coming of the telegraph in the 1880's made the Cup a national event.
Over the decades the race has been won by horses with such colorful names as Sheet Anchor (1885), Revenue (1901), Evening Peal (1956), Light Fingers (1965), Baghdad Note (1970), Think Big (1974-75) and Black Knight (1984). In its first two years the race was won by a Sydney horse called Archer, but at his third try the Melbourne authorities rejected his application as being too late.
In the last eight years two American-trained horses have won the Cup: Beldale Ball in 1980 and At Talaq in 1986. ''The biggest change in the 10 years I've been covering the Cup,'' said Cathy Walker, a racing journalist for The Age, ''is that it has become a more international event.''
Last year the prize money was $1,251,312. Within Victoria alone, bets amounted to $25,938,000. Some $9 million was placed through bookmakers, who stand on raised platforms shouting the odds they will offer on each horse, in the manner imported from England a century ago. In midafternoon tension mounted. Talking subsided: the main event of the day was about to begin.
How could 80,000 people, many tipsy, so suddenly become so hushed? I looked sideways at the jeans and top hats, the velvet jackets and the swimming costumes, the ducks' feet and the taffeta frocks, all now fixed together for a moment like the varied squares of a quilt. I looked at the faces, flushed pink with hope, or shadowed by a frown, as if uncertain that Uncle Bill's hot tip would really come good. In the distance across the flat green course, the reds and blues of the jockeys' caps and racing silks were hardly more than a string of colored beads on the horizon. Soon shouts rent the air. Cries from the stands dissolved the tension. People jumped up and down. The Cup was on . . .
Later, beside the exit gate, near a stand where fresh crayfish were for sale, a man in a T-shirt marked ''USA'' had fallen asleep under a tree, his legs bent up, a beer can gripped in his right hand. As we picked our way through the champagne bottles and beer cans I recalled the Rev. Billy Graham's remark after a visit to Australia, ''Melbourne is one of the most moral cities in the world.'' We departed, to to see if there really were people somewhere not dressed like birds and drinking champagne.
Few people's fortunes are made or broken by betting on the Melbourne Cup. What matters is having been there. The unity of the day is expressed when the Governor General, the Queen's representative in Australia, rises to present the Cup and murmur some optimistic remarks. Cup Day Melbourne, which these past decades has had to defer to Sydney in many realms - Sydney is the more popular city, with 3.3 million inhabitants - reminds Australians that the one day of the year that unfailingly produces community fever is its own Cup Day.
AFTER sundown, as Cup Day becomes Cup Week, a thousand private parties break out all over Melbourne. Happy or downcast, the guests have that open, unwary look that proves they had a memorable day. Late in the evening people say to each other, ''See you next year.'' The words suggest the appeal behind the rite of the Melbourne Cup: a measuring rod for the march of time.
A few weeks after my own day at the Cup, I asked a taxi driver in Sydney, where people love to disparage Melbourne, to tell me his busiest day. ''Melbourne Cup Day,'' he replied quietly. ''Are people dashing to and from the airport?'' I asked. ''Oh no, they don't go to Melbourne; they are dashing to Melbourne Cup parties around Sydney.'' CATCHING THE CUP ACTION Getting There The four-mile trip to Flemington from central Melbourne can be made by electric train or tram for about $1.15 or taxi for $8.60. Tickets Hill Stand tickets cost $44 for a covered seat. Lawn Stand seats (uncovered) are $34. For $8.60 you can stand in the public enclosure. Some racing clubs around the world have reciprocal rights with the Victoria Racing Club, permitting members to enter the Members Stand. Information: 03-267-6144. Binoculars can be rented for $4, with a $28 deposit. Tickets can be bought in advance by writing to Cup Carnival, Post Office Box 1200, South Yarra, Victoria 3141, Australia; telephone 03-267-5577. Gambling Bets may be placed at Totalisator Agency Board offices around Australia, or on the spot at Flemington, either with the board or a bookmaker (winnings are taxed 15 percent). Minimum bet with the totalisator and bookies is 40 cents. Accommodations The variety of accommodations ranges from luxurious in downtown Melbourne to moderately priced motels that lie between the city and the racecourse. The Regent of Melbourne, 25 Collins Street; 03-653-0000. $196 for a double room.
Southern Cross Hotel, 131 Exhibition Street; 03-653-0221. $140 for a double.
Cup time is busy, and the last-minute traveler might end up staying in Sydney or Adelaide (each an hour's flight away) and returning to Melbourne for the day. Cup Day Cup Day (Nov. 1 this year) is a holiday in Melbourne and banks, post offices and most shops close. There is no public parade; the spectacle is the horses and citizenry hellbent upon play. Dress can be grand or bizarre, as desired. You may expect rain, sunshine, or both. R.T.

Waterfall ice climbing is a sport undertaken by climbing enthusiasts aware of avalanche risks.[7] Some waterfalls are conducive to swimming, or kayaking sports.[5] To several waterfalls which are not near a highway, hiking trails lead into the site of the waterfall. Some waterfalls have bridges and cable cars to provide additional scenic views of the waterfall such as at Montmorency Falls.[8] Photography of waterfalls records the panorama of scenic cascading waterfalls.
There are three waterfalls in Canada which appear to reverse. They are Wager Bay, Nunavut; Barrier Inlet, Nunavut; and Reversing Falls at the mouth of the Saint John River, New Brunswick. During low tide the watersource falls over a rocky ledge as a waterfall. During high tide, the seawater raises above the height of the rocky ledge, and the seawater rushes into the river valley against the low tide river flow.[9]

Our mini-cards we developed for KillerDye.com
KillerDye, The origin of a Louisiana T-shirt company.
KillerDye was born out of natural progression. Started in February 2012, KillerDye is a business venture for Chad & Kim Moreno.
As the owners of a web design and development company for 20+ years, we have expanded or services over the years to accompany the needs of our clients. In that progression, we have become a full service design company with 4 employees. While we primarily focus on web development services, we do logo design, print design and found ourselves helping our clients with a wide range of design services.
One service we are often asked to do is t-shirt design. We have some traditional screen print experience and understand the t-shirt print process.
Once we discovered the DTG (Direct-to-garment) machines we knew there was a new service our company could offer. A company that could build of off our current business, design experience and knowledge.
KillerDye.com is Located at 1214 Common Street in Lake Charles, LA and is managed under the parent company of Data.sys, Inc.
Self-taught web designer and developer, my wife Kim and myself own Killerwebsites.com and have been developing websites, logos and printed materials for 20+ years.
