Grade 3-6 Of all of the many past illustrators of Kipling's stories, only Kipling himself, in the first edition (Doubleday, 1902; o.p.), captured the Oriental tone of these stories. This ``more-than-oriental-splendour'' comes through in Salter's attractive edition. She has done a full-color, full-page illustration for each of the 12 stories, along with decorations for each title page. The illustrations are bold and stylized with a strong use of color, all set within richly patterned borders. They have a strong sense of Indian folk art, particularly in the gold, browns, wines, blues, and blacks that she uses. These are the sort of illustrations that draw readers in to study each detail. They form the framework for an attractive, well-laid-out format.

To putt out of your mind--to master this crucial part of the game--you've got to get putting out of your mind--to make it so second nature that you're not actually thinking and stressing once you're standing over the ball. As Brad Faxon, a Rotella devotee and one of the best putters on the PGA Tour, emphasizes in his introduction, ""The secret of great putting is not in the stroke. It's in the mind. When you putt, your state of mind is more important than your mechanics."" Once you can imagine yourself sinking a putt, you've exponentially improved your possibilities of actually knocking it in. It's an important lesson, and he learned it from Rotella. Rotella demystifies the mechanics, accenting instead the importance of a pre-shot routine to help you more effectively visualize your putts and serve as a security blanket when you're facing a breaking downhill five-footer with the match on the line. Most important, Rotella preaches the idea that putting is actually fun for good putters. It's the part of the game they relish most. You'll no doubt find yourself relishing it, too. --Jeff Silverman --This text refers to the Hardcover edition. The previous generation of golf stars were reluctant to admit to visiting a ""sports shrink."" But by raising the competitive bar, players like Tiger Woods and David Duval have sent countless professional and amateur golfers to the couch in an attempt to discover if their minds are keeping them from winning the big ones. Writing here with Cullen (Why Golf?), former University of Virginia sports-psychologist-turned-consultant Rotella applies his popular, well-respected methodology to the stroke that wins tournaments. According to Rotella, good putting has less to do with mechanics than attitude: golfers who can empty their minds of any thought other than making the putt, follow their pre-shot routine faithfully and believe, will improve their putting. The book is lucid, well-paced and enlivened by anecdotes of golf champion Jack Nicklaus's selective memory (""He was able to block from his mind all the missed putts. He kept and replayed the memories of made putts""), by an introduction by veteran pro Brad Faxon and by a foreword from Duval. All lovers of the game will benefit from bringing this book to the green. (June 5) Forecast: Rotella's two most recent titles Golf Is Not a Game of Perfect and Golf Is a Game of Confidence have been sports-title bestsellers, spawning a huge sideline in calendars and other paraphernalia; this title should continue the trend. Expect it to be placed point-of-sale at the pro shop.Copyright 2001 Cahners Business Information, Inc. --This text refers to the Hardcover edition. Rotella, head-doctor to the pros, got golf's psychological ball rolling in Golf Is Not a Game of Perfect (1995). If there's one putting lesson he wants to impress on weekend woodchoppers, it might be ""a little knowledge is a dangerous thing,"" that knowledge being the stuff about grips, stances, mechanics, and green reading that instructionals impart. Although all are essential to learn, all are vital to forget at the crucial moment. The mental maladies of his patients, pro or am, stem from cerebrum-flooding formal knowledge crowding out the one thought that matters: putt to make it. Obvious exhortation, perhaps, but, with Cullen's invisible assistance, Rotella develops its nuances well by underscoring the detriments of dwelling on lagging, three putting, or missing the cut. This is counsel probably wasted on the guy with the tallboy in the bag. To those for whom scoring is all, however, it might make sense. Gilbert TaylorCopyright American Library Association.

A writer for and consultant to Golf Digest, he lives in Charlottesville, Virginia. Chapter One: The Heart of the GamePutting -- a game within a game -- might justly be said to be the most important part of golf.-- BOBBY JONESAs the last twosome approached the 72nd green of the 1998 Nissan Open, not many people in Los Angeles gave my friend and client Billy Mayfair much chance to win. Tiger Woods, playing a group ahead of Billy, had just birdied the final hole to take a one-stroke lead. Tiger was charging. He had birdied three of the last four holes.The Nissan Open that year was played at Valencia Country Club, and the 18th hole was a long par-5. Billy had not birdied it all week and he did not reach it in two strokes on this occasion. He hit his three-wood into a bunker to the right of the green. But Billy then hit a nice explosion shot to about five feet. He made that putt to force a play-off.Even then, it was all but assumed that Tiger would win the play-off, which began on the same par-5. Tiger hits the ball much longer than Billy, whose length off the tee is about average for the PGA Tour. Even those who understood that good putting is much more important than length off the tee found reason to favor Tiger: Billy Mayfair has a very unorthodox putt-ing stroke, the kind of stroke that television commentators love to criticize, love to say won't hold up under pressure.That putting stroke was what initially brought Billy and me together.Billy grew up in Phoenix. From the time he started playing golf, he enjoyed putting. He had little choice. His parents weren't wealthy and when they dropped him off at a municipal golf course called Papago Park, they couldn't give him money for greens fees or range balls. The only thing a kid could do for free at Papago Park was putt and chip around the big, crowned practice green.So Billy did, five days a week after school. He developed into a very good putter. Even though he never hit the ball enormous distances, he won a lot of junior tournaments. He won the U.S. Public Links. He won the U.S. Amateur.He did all of this with the idiosyncratic putting stroke he'd developed at Papago Park. Billy did not take the putter straight back and bring it straight through the ball. He drew the club back outside the target line -- the line he intended for the ball to travel as it left the putter blade. As he started his forward stroke, it looked as if he would pull every putt to his left. But at the last instant, Billy straightened his blade until it was perpendicular to the target line. And he made a lot of putts that way, even though the purists who saw him insisted he was cutting the ball, coming across it from right to left.Billy, of course, didn't grow up knowing many purists at Papago Park. All he knew was that he had a putting stroke that got the ball in the hole. He assumed it was a stroke that went straight up and down the line of the putt. Why wouldn't he?When Billy got out on the Tour in 1989, he did quite well. He made enough money to keep his playing card in 1989 and moved up to twelfth on the money list in 1990. But then he started to slip. He developed problems with his short game, especially his putting.One reason, Billy now thinks, is the way Tour courses are equipped. Every one of them has a big practice range with grass tees. On every practice range there is an unlimited supply of fresh golf balls -- real ones, not range balls. For a kid from Papago Park who could never afford to hit all the balls he wanted, this was all but irresistible. Billy started to spend more of his practice time working on his full swing.At the same time, he started to listen to the critics of his putting stroke. There were so many of them he decided they had to be right, and he set about trying to give himself a classic putting stroke, straight back and straight through. This was what he thought he needed to break into the ranks of tournament winners.A player who starts spending too much time on his full swing and not enough on his wedges and chips will soon find himself facing longer putts for par. Even the best players hit, on average, only thirteen or so greens per round. Five times a round, they have to get up and down, and if their short game isn't sharp they're going to be looking at a lot of six- and seven-foot putts they feel they have to make.If they do this at the same time they're thinking about changing their putting stroke, thinking about taking the blade straight back and forth, they will soon find themselves in trouble. If you're obsessed with some model of the perfect stroke, the first time you miss a putt you think you should have made, you're going to start having doubts about your stroke. Pretty soon, you'll be riven with doubt, as self-conscious as a teenager wearing a new outfit he thinks the others kids deem ugly. And you'll be just as awkward.In fact, when Billy first came to see me in 1991, he told me he had developed a case of the yips. His scores were going up. He was in danger of losing his card.What he had, I thought, was not the yips. It was a case of misplaced priorities and a way of thinking that wasn't working on the putting green. I suggested that Billy stop trying to fix his putting stroke. It had never been broken. In trying to fix it, he'd lost his focus on the true business at hand on the green, which is rolling the ball into the hole. I told him I didn't care whether he cut the ball when he putted. I didn't care whether he stroked his putts standing on his head. I just wanted him to think about his target and let the putt go. I wanted him to rediscover the practice priorities he'd had as a kid and spend more time working on his wedges and his chipping.Billy did. He went on to win his first Tour event in 1993 and to build a solid career for himself. He won the Tour Championship in 1995 at Southern Hills on some of the fastest greens in the country.All of that history was on my mind as I watched that Nissan Open play-off begin. I think it was on Billy's, too.""I knew Tiger would have an advantage on a par-five,"" he told me later. ""But then he drove into the rough and I knew he wasn't going to be able to reach it in two. That meant the hole was probably going to be decided with wedge shots and putts. I thought to myself, 'Okay, Tiger. The game's on my court now.'""Billy Mayfair reaffirmed, in that moment, his knowledge of one of the abiding truths about putting. The challenge of making a putt to win, to set a personal record, is what golf is all about. That's why professional golfers practice putting as much as they do -- because they want to savor the joy of meeting that challenge. The best and smartest of them realize something else as well. Putting is fun.Billy drove into the fairway and hit his second shot about eighty-five yards from the green. Tiger couldn't reach the green from the rough. He left his second thirty yards away.Billy's wedge was lovely to watch. It hit about eight feet behind the hole and spun back, coming to rest about six feet away. Tiger hit his pitch past the hole and left himself a fifteen-foot birdie putt.Tiger's putt was a good one, but it slid past the hole. He sank to his knees, chagrined.Billy used the time he had while Tiger went through his putt-ing routine. He walked around his putt, checked out everything he could see. But he had known from the time he stepped onto the green what this putt was going to do. It was not quite on the same line as the putt he'd made on the 72nd hole, but it was close. It would be uphill. It would be straight.""When you're putting really well,"" he told me later, ""you see a line. It's like a baseball player who's hitting really good and says the ball looks like it's barely moving. Your vision is different. I saw my line, just right of dead straight. Uphill. I had a pretty good idea in the back of my mind how hard to hit it.""Billy had the wisdom, as he paced about and continued to inspect the green, not to let anything change this solid first impression. Instead, his observation only strengthened his initial read.Then it was his turn. There were a lot of things he could have thought about. He could have thought about the fact that he had last won a tournament three seasons before. He could have thought about how impressive Tiger had been ten months previously in winning the Masters by twelve strokes. He could have thought about what would happen on the next hole if he missed his putt. He could have thought about the statistics that show that Tour players make only about half of their six-footers. He could have thought about his nerves.Fortunately, he didn't. Billy was experienced. He knew that the nerves that accompany a PGA Tour play-off were not something to fear. They were something to welcome. He knew that all the hours of practice had been spent precisely to help him get to a spot where his nerves would jangle.""All I really thought about,"" he told me later, ""was making sure that I did my routine and saw my target well. I let the putt go.""His target was just a bit to the right of the center of the hole. When he's putting well, Billy tells me, he seems to see everything in slow motion. The ball leaves the putter blade and rolls like a big, heavy beach ball. It is as if he can see every revolution it makes, watch it bump gently over each blade of grass.This time, everything went slowly. The ball rolled ponderously but inexorably. It was dead straight. He knew from the instant he struck it that his touch had been good. It was a nice, firm hit. He watched the ball cover the target point he'd chosen and fall into the cup. An instant later, pandemonium erupted and Billy felt a deep sense of satisfaction.""You don't get too many chances to beat Tiger,"" he told me. ""And when you do have a chance, you want to take it.""I love the way Billy handled the situation. He wanted to beat Tiger Woods. But he was able to discipline his thinking enough to shove that thought out of his field of focus, along with all other distracting ideas. He thought only of seeing the target he wanted and letting the putt roll. That was why h... --This text refers to the Unknown Binding edition.",books;coaching;golf;politics & social sciences;sports & outdoors,5 0374317623,"Dear Mili Preserved in a letter written to a young girl, Mili, in 1816 and not discovered until 1983, the Grimm story is prefaced by a tender address in which he underscores the story's message: although there are many obstacles that can prevent people from being together, ""one human heart can go out to another, undeterred by what lies between."" The story that follows implies that love transcends even death. Like many fairy tales, this one deals with extraordinary events. A widow sends her child into the forest to protect her from an approaching war. The girl is led by her guardian angel past menacing cliffs and chasms to the house of Saint Joseph with whom she lives for three days. Before she goes back to the village, Saint Joseph gives her a rosebud as a symbol of her return to paradise; when the girl reaches her home, she finds that the three days have been in reality 30 years. ""God has granted the widow's last wish"" to see her daughter once again. In the morning, mother and child are found dead, with Saint Joseph's rose ""in full bloom."" Sendak's haunting interpretation of this stark tale is often more emotionally compelling than the story itself. Dear Mili is a variation on the themes of loss, separation and love that Sendak has explored before, most recently in Outside Over There . In the tradition of 19th century Sunday school literature, the plot and language of the text are often predictable and obviously preachy. For example, after Mili's long journey and prayer, a cleansing rain falls: ""God and my heart are weeping together,"" she says. In an attempt to transcend the limitations of the religious story, Sendak infuses it with images that are both nonsectarian and universal. Trees and roots in the valley of death become grasping, whitened bones scattered beneath an outline reminiscent of buildings at Auschwitz. The images are rich: dark clouds of war are etched with claws of yellow fire, and paradise is filled not only with music, but with lush flowers that burst, like those of Van Gogh or O'Keeffe, with passionate life. The volume may have more appeal for adults than for children, but nonetheless it contains unforgettable artwork of resonant power. Michael di Capua Books. All ages. Copyright 1988 Reed Business Information, Inc. Kindergarten-Grade 3 This is a problematic book: a potent combination of compelling pictures and a seriously disturbing text. Although the discovery of the tale in 1983 made front-page news, there is little novelty or originality to it. The story, found in a letter of 1816, is a pastiche of several ``religious tales.'' When war approaches, a widowed mother sends her beloved little daughter, protected by a guardian angel, into the forest, trusting God to bring her back in three days. The intrepid girl encounters St. Joseph, dutifully does what she is bid, shares her cake, and plays with the angel (now a doppel-ganger ). On the third day the angel-double leads her home, where she finds an ``old, old woman''her mother. In those 3 days, 30 years have passed, and the mother has suffered fear and misery during a great war, while mourning the daughter whom she believed dead. Mother and child happily spend the evening together, go to bedand are found dead in the morning. Separation, fear, violence, and even death are familiar elements in Grimms' tales: what is unsettling here is the treatment, the unanticipated mixture of fairy tale, realism, and religion. Our firm expectationsthat the child will be safeguarded by her mother's love, by God's Providence, and by her own staunch goodnessare brutally undermined by the ending. Publishing this pious parable as a picture book for children in 1988 makes W. Grimm look like a macabre forerunner of O. Henry. The pictures only compound the problem. Stunningly beautiful, in Sendak's elaborate neo-19th-Century style, packed with ``high art'' touches, their Romantic grace, cozy cottages, and abundant flowers all reinforce our feelings of security. Although the story hints strongly that when the heroine finds St. Joseph she is actually in Heaven, the setting offers no clarification on this point. The gorgeous art and the names Sendak and Grimm guarantee that this book will be requested. Warned by librarians and booksellers, parents might at least choose to modify or omit the last few lines at bedtime readings.

Best-known for the Caldecott Medalwinning Where the Wild Things Are, he was also the recipient of the Hans Christian Andersen Award for childrens book illustration, the Laura Ingalls Wilder Medal, and the National Medal of Arts.WILHELM GRIMM (17861859) wasa German author, linguist, and folklorist who, along with his older brother, Jakob, published Childrens and Household Tales in 1812. Popularly known as Grimms Fairy Tales, this collection was continually revised by the brothers and ultimately included 210 folk tales,among themmany that have become famous around the world. Dear Mili,Im sure you have gone walking in the woods or in green meadows, and passed a clear, flowing brook. And youve tossed a flower into the brook, a red one, a blue one, or a snow-white one. It drifted away, and you followed it with your eyes as far as you could. And it went quietly away with the little waves, farther and farther, all day long and all night too, by the light of the moon or the stars. It didnt need much light, for it knew the way and it didnt get lost. When it had traveled for three days without stopping to rest, another flower came along on another brook. A child like you, but far far away from here, had tossed it into a brook at the same time. The two flowers kissed, and went their way together and stayed together until they both sank to the bottom. You have also seen a little bird flying away over the mountain in the evening. Perhaps you thought it was going to bed; not at all, another little bird was flying over other mountains, and when all was dark on the earth, the two of them met in the last ray of sunshine. The sun shone bright on their feathers, and as they flew back and forth in the light they told each other many things that we on the earth below could not hear. You see, the brooks and the flowers and the birds come together, but people do not; great mountains and rivers, forests and meadows, cities and villages lie in between, they have their set places and cannot be moved, and humans cannot fly. But one human heart goes out to another, undeterred by what lies between. Thus does my heart go out to you, and though my eyes have not seen you yet, it loves you and thinks it is sitting beside you. And you say: Tell me a story.

Grandmaster cartographer Qiro Anturasi, despite being the prisoner of Imperial Prince Cyron of Nalenyr, has somehow been able to create a brand new continent in what had hitherto been an unoccupied portion of the ocean. Meanwhile, Qiro's grandson, Kelos, who has been sent to map the wild lands of Ixyll, has been captured by Prince Pyrust of Deseiron, who, like Cyron, schemes to unite and rule the Nine Principalities. A profusion of characters and subplots slows the pace, but there's adventure aplenty for those who like their fantasies big and bloody. (Feb. 28) Copyright Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved. The prolific and gifted Stackpole continues the fantasy saga he began in A Secret Atlas (2005). Its setting is based on the great age of European exploration in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. In that era, maps were rare, expensive, and often credited with supernatural or, at least, mysterious powers. In the world of Stackpole's fiction, maps constitute a potent form of magic and are expected to bring together two brothers and a sister from alternate worlds to complete a collective quest: a life-or-death search for their homeland, which is menaced by invaders who can be defeated only by legendary champions who shall rise from the dead (shades of the legend of Frederick Barbarossa!). Sufficient suspense, enough action, intelligent characterization, and detail drawn from this-world history all boost Cartomancy well above the ruck of the standard quest tales, though to its credit, it can be enjoyed simply for the quest, too.

Chapter One 10th day, Month of the Wolf, Year of the Rat 9th Year of Imperial Prince Cyrons Court 163rd Year of the Komyr Dynasty 737th year since the Cataclysm Derros, Erumvirine Ranai Ameryne waited in the night, cloaked in shadow. Shed been living in the forest outside Serrian Istor for the better part of a week, becoming accustomed to its every aspect. Even in her days as a highwayman in Nalenyr, she had never become so attuned to her surroundings. As an outlaw she found fear and resentment of society constant companions, and they barred her from a union with nature as much as they did from society itself. Here, in the forest, she found peace. She watched life surrounding her, studying the drama of predator and prey. Growing up, shed had a basic education designed to allow her to fill a role within the vast governmental bureaucracy. That education had taught her that there was an order to all things, and that as long as it remained undisturbed, life was idyllic and perfect. Her teachers had such information on very good authority. Grand Minister Urmyr had codified things with his books of wisdom in the earliest days of the Empire. As he was oft quoted as saying, The wind is wise, and water wiser still, for none who oppose them can stand. Yet those who travel with them do so at ease and swiftly. And more often than not, such quotes are used to caution one against challenging a more powerful foe. She smiled, aware but uncaring that the scar on her left cheek twisted the smile awry. For those she awaited and would hunt, she would be the wind and the water. She glanced up at the sky. Fryl, the owl-moon, had half its white face hidden by a black crescent. Its position confirmed what she knew in her heart, that the night was nearing its midpoint. Her opponents would soon be released. They would seek her, thinking they were the hunters, but they would be proven wrong. She shivered as the faint echoes of fear ran through her. Up until the previous years Harvest Festival, she had proven other hunters equally wrong. Her name had been Pavynti Syolsar and, with her companions, shed preyed on travelers in Nalenyr. The Festival had brought many people onto the road and shed robbed most of them. She had stood against all of their defendersincluding some very good swordsmenand had defeated them all. Save for Moraven Tolo. Shed not taken him for anything special at first. He had appeared to be nearing middle ageat least middle age for most menthough his long black hair had not been shot with white. He moved easily and without fear. He identified himself as one of the xidantzu, and shed thought he was just one more of the wandering warriors shed have to cut down before harvesting whatever gold his traveling companions possessed. Then he told her to draw a circle. A cold trickle ran down her spine even after four months. As good as she was, he was better. He was a Master of the Sworda Grand Master and beyond. He was a Mystic, capable of making magic with his blade. He would have been the wind and water; I could have been earth, fire, and wood, and I could not have stood against him. By rights she should have been dead, but he had chosen not to kill her. He put her through her paces and determined she had some skill with the sword she bore. So he demanded she travel south, to the Virine coast, to join Serrian Istor. Once Master Istor released her, she would spend nine years traveling as xidantzu. Shed undertaken the journey south even though she could have run away at any time. While she had been a highwayman, she had clung to the honor of the swordsman. It was not fear of Moraven Tolo that kept her on her journey. It was the knowledge that she should have been deadand complying with his command gave her a chance for a new life. She embraced that new life and made her way quickly to Serrian Istor. She had been received immediately into the small cadre of students, most of whom were, at the closest, a decade her junior. Master Kalun Istor made no comment as she told him her tale and why she had come. She had expected derision or contempt, but got none. Master Istor had listened; then, without a word, he took a brush, dipped it in ink, and quickly wrote. Setting the brush down, he turned the piece of paper around so she could read it. You do know what it says? Shed nodded. It can be read two ways. One is the tigers young kitten. The other is Ranai Ameryne. The wizened swordmaster slitted his eyes and nodded. For you it is both. You are a tiger yet to grow into your claws. You are also now known as Ranai Ameryne. Who and what you were before are gone. Welcome to my school, Ranai Ameryne. Master Istor proved to be as relentless as he was wise, pushing her constantly. He gave her responsibility for the adolescent students. They, in turn, pushed her, frustrated her and, in retrospect, taught her to curb the anger that would otherwise have had her lashing out mercilessly at them. Her care for them did not excuse her from her duties as a student, however, and often her personal studies lasted well into the night. In her studies she came to grips with the conflict that had driven her to become an outlaw in the first place. Having been raised to believe that the wind and water swept all away before them, she spent her life waiting for retribution because she had chosen to defy convention. She had abandoned her early training and left home to study swordsmanship wherever she could find a school willing to take her in. She seldom stayed long with themno more than two years and often much lesspreferring to find a new school instead of deal- ing with the responsibilities and frustrations the old school thrust upon her. Her life had become one of defiance, and she waited to be punished for it. Yet through Master Istor, she came to understand that she could be one who defied wind and water . . . or she could become wind and water. It was not a matter of finding accommodation with the world, but becoming strong enough that the world had to accommodate her. That might have seemed a license for megalomania, but Ranais training and Master Istors guidance carried her beyond that. Just because she could destroy all those who defied her, it did not mean she must. She remained very aware that Moraven Tolo could have killed her but had stayed his hand. Following his example, she sought even the tiniest spark of potential in an individual. Were there no such spark, she could kill without compunction. She also realized that part of the reason she had been assigned a small group of students was to learn to spot such sparks. While she was almost positive she would not have struck at any of her charges had she encountered them in her past life, the fact that she could not be absolutely certain bothered her. So she did restrain herselfand admired Moraven Tolo more for the restraint he had shown in the face of her far more serious provocation. And now she waited in the darkened woods for her students to come hunt her. She had no doubt that one or the other of them would have tried to organize the group efficiently. She was likewise sure that several of the students would strike out on their own in an attempt to reap the glory of her capture by themselves. While her easiest course would have been to locate those individuals and defeat them before facing the pack, reversing that strategy would be best. The exercise was meant to be one in which everyone learned that working in a team was preferable. If the group captured her, the value of teamwork would be shown. If it failed to do so and she subsequently hunted down the others and took them, the folly of striking out on their own would be proven. Her awareness of the forest life sharpened her focus. Winter on the Virine coast did bring colder weather, but warm currents prevented snow from falling. Instead, misty rain prevailed, often producing fog. The forest creatures still thrived, but they had suddenly fallen silent. Curiously, the quietest quarter lay in the direction of the sea, not due south from Derros and the serrian. Is it possible they thought Id secure my eastern flank with the sea? And since I expected them to come from the south, they chose to come in from the sea? While the coastline was not very hospitable, little smuggler coves would allow a dozen students to bring in a small boat. Scaling the thirty-foot cliff would be no problem for them. She slowly slid her scabbarded blade from her sash. Her black robes blended with the night, and her cowl only had holes for her eyes and ears. Shed blackened her exposed flesh with charcoal. Down by the shore shed found bits of torn fishing nets from which she made an overshirt. Into it she stuffed branches ripped from trees. If she went to ground, she looked like a small shrub. Moving with the silence her intimate knowledge of the area permitted, she headed east. The most obvious traila smugglers trailwandered through small depressions, beaten flat by the tread of thousands. She hurried to a point where she could ambush the group, going to ground in the hole at the base of an uprooted tree. Yet the silence continued, which surprised her. Tillid, the smallest of her students, had never remained quiet for so long. Still she heard nothing, save the winds whisper through the trees and the creaking clack of branches as they swayed. Then, from above, came an awkward and surprised squawk, followed by a crunch. Something dropped onto the wet leaves beside her. A seahawk looked up at her with...",books;fantasy;literature & fiction;science fiction & fantasy;united states,5 B00005139I,"Primera 53319 Signature III Monochrome Black Ink This is the standard Black Monochrome ink For Signature III, IV, SignaturePro, and Signature Z6",computer accessories;computers & accessories;electronics;inkjet printer ink;printer ink & toner,5 B000G89MIM,"DiMarzio Switchcraft 1/4"" Stereo Output Jack DiMarzio brings you this Switchcraft 1/4"" Stereo Output Jack so you can keep the relationship between your instrument and your instrument cable tight.

In perhaps McMullan's most childlike watercolors to date, the artist connects the chant-like verse to the experience of a carefree boy exploring the great outdoors. His unusual technique shows the youth literally as a part of his surroundings: subtle outlines of tree branches and roots bleed through the boy's T-shirt and shorts, giving him the appearance of being inextricably linked to nature. Accompanied by a white puppy, the boy tests all his senses: he runs with arms outstretched, feeds a bird from his palm, leans into the wind and rain, floats a leaf on the river and bounces his voice off the mountains. The rhythmic simplicity of the words coupled with the boy's pure joy as he romps with his pup will likely capture the imaginations of many nature lovers. Ages 3-6. Copyright 1999 Reed Business Information, Inc. PreSchool-Grade 1-This deceptively simple book celebrates the wonders of nature as seen by a child. DeMunn's chant consists of short phrases that enumerate parts of the natural world and declare them good. Accompanied by a puppy, the child explores ocean, mountains, fields, and forest. Trees, mouse, soil, wind, rain, rivers, night, and day all receive equal admiration. McMullan's illustrations effectively reveal the connection between the youngster and the natural surroundings. The book is suitable for group sharing, with many participation possibilities, including repeating lines and extending the chant to other animals and landscapes with which youngsters are familiar.

It will satisfy your eye for fine design as well as your appetite for fine food. Each piece of Calphalon Tri-Ply Copper cookware is carefully crafted from three different metals--each with its own special benefit in the kitchen. Calphalon Tri-Ply Copper cookware's brushed copper exterior not only brings lustrous warmth and classic beauty to your home. It also contributes to the superior conductivity and cooking performance of each pan. (Copper is among nature's best conductors of heat.) Calphalon Tri-Ply Copper pans feature an inner core of pure, heavy-gauge aluminum. Aluminum is another highly conductive metal--and the thicker the aluminum, the more conductive the pan. Together, copper and aluminum guarantee quick searing, beautiful browning and the precise cooking control you need to achieve spectacular results in the kitchen. Calphalon Tri-Ply Copper cookware's 18/10 stainless steel interior surface is non-reactive. It won't tarnish or change color when you cook acidic foods like tomato sauce. It's also highly reflective. That makes it easy to see inside the pan--to judge color and texture changes that indicate when foods are properly cooked.To manufacture Calphalon Tri-Ply Copper cookware, we bond these three metals together under extreme pressure into a single disk. The disk is then expertly drawn into its final shape-a vessel with equally thick walls and bottom, to ensure even heating.Tri-Ply Copper is designed in the same spirit of simple, functional elegance that distinguishes all Calphalon cookware.Gracefully-curved Cool-V long handles stay cool to the touch during stovetop cooking.

(Automatic dishwasher detergents contain harsh chemicals that can permanently discolor copper.) And be sure to dry thoroughly to prevent spots.

It may turn a deeper orange, pinkish orange, or even develop purple and blue streaks. This is perfectly normal and is not permanent.

As a company with cutting-edge electronic technology developed for pocket calculators, Casio entered this field confident that it could develop timepieces that would lead the market. In developing its own wristwatches Casio began with the basic question, """"What is a wristwatch?"""" Rather than simply making a digital version of the conventional mechanical watch, we thought that the ideal wristwatch should be something that shows all facets of time in a consistent way. Based on this, Casio was able to create a watch that displayed the precise time including the second, minute, hour, day, and month not to mention a.m. or p.m., and the day of the week. It was the first watch in the world with a digital automatic calendar function that eliminated the need to reset the calendar due the variation in month length. Rather than using a conventional watch face and hands, a digital liquid crystal display was adopted to better show all the information. This culminated in the 1974 launch of the CASIOTRON, the worlds first digital watch with automatic calendar. The CASIOTRON won acclaim as a groundbreaking product that represented a complete departure from the conventional wristwatch. Casio transformed the concept of the watch from a mere timepiece to an information device for the wrist and undertook product planning based on this innovative idea. We developed not only time functions such as global time zone watches, but also other radical new functions using Casios own digital technology, including calculator and dictionary functions, as well as a phonebook feature based on memory technology, and even a thermometer function using a built-in sensor. The memory-function watches became our DATA BANK product series, while the sensor watches developed into two unique Casio product lines of today: the Pathfinder series displaying altitude, atmospheric pressure, and compass readings. In 1983, Casio launched the shock-resistant G-SHOCK watch. This product shattered the notion that a watch is a fragile piece of jewelry that needs to be handled with care, and was the result of Casio engineers taking on the challenge of creating the worlds toughest watch. Using a triple-protection design for the parts, module, and case, the G-SHOCK offered a radical new type of watch that was unaffected by strong impacts or shaking. Its practicality was immediately recognized, and its unique look, which embodied its functionality, became wildly popular, resulting in explosive sales in the early 1990s. The G-SHOCK soon adopted various new sensors, solar-powered radio-controlled technology (described below), and new materials for even better durability. By always employing the latest technology, and continuing to transcend conventional thinking about the watch, the G-SHOCK brand has become Casios flagship timepiece product. Today, Casio is focusing its efforts on solar-powered radio-controlled watches: the built-in solar battery eliminates the nuisance of replacing batteries, and the radio-controlled function means users never have to reset the time. In particular, the radio-controlled function represents a revolution in time-keeping technology similar to the impact created when mechanical watches gave way to quartz technology. Through the further development of high radio-wave sensitivity, miniaturization, and improved energy efficiency, Casio continues to produce a whole range of radio-controlled models.",accessories;sport watches;sports & outdoors;watches;wrist watches,5 B00006BT2I,"Hit to Kill: The New Battle over Shielding America from Missile Attack The U.S., writes veteran Washington Post military affairs reporter Graham, has no way of preventing a nuclear missile attack upon its territory; thus, this is the story of the ""frustratingly elusive dream"" of creating a nationwide antimissile system that all presidents since Johnson have pursued. Graham focuses on the Clinton administration, but in doing so, he uncovers the broader complexities and pitfalls of creating an antimissile system. Uninterested at first, Clinton was pushed to pursue such a plan by a bellicose Republican Congress as well as the successful launch of a sophisticated missile by North Korea. Problems were everywhere: intelligence sources could never accurately say how real the nuclear threat was from ""rogue nations"" like North Korea; the military, quite presciently, worried that other threats such as a terrorist ""bomb in a skyscraper"" might be the more clear and present danger. The cost was enormous and it was never clear that the technology for such a system could soon or ever be developed. Political challenges were enormous as well. Deployment of the system would directly violate the ABM (Anti-Ballistic Missile) Treaty with Russia, which prohibited such systems. China was threatened by the U.S. moves and Europe disliked unilateral action by the Americans. After a few inconclusive tests, Clinton abandoned the plan, leaving its fate to his successor. Bush at least up to September 11, which the book predates had made an anti-missile system the centerpiece of his defense policy. Graham weaves all these threads into a compelling narrative of America's quest for invulnerability, a quest we now know all too well to be indeed an elusive dream. Copyright 2001 Cahners Business Information, Inc. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. After crude experiments in the Sixties and early Seventies, President Reagan relaunched the national missile defense effort in the 1980s with the Strategic Defense Initiative (SDI), popularly known as Star Wars. The bulk of this work deals with the 1990s, the political infighting and technical problems, and how the Clinton administration, focused on domestic affairs, was more interested in a cheaper theater defense system. The new Bush administration's announcement that it is making missile defense a top priority has led to much international and domestic controversy. The author does not favor either side of the argument, but he does say that the President must offer some reasonable alternatives to the present security structure to help make things as stable as possible internationally. While the cost of any such system is beyond calculation, the real question remains whether or not it would work. Graham spent many years covering foreign and military affairs for the Washington Post and conducted over 300 interviews for this fair-minded survey, which belongs on the shelf beside Defending America: The Case for Limited National Missile Defense (LJ 9/1/01). Suitable for the circulating collections of all public libraries. (Index not seen.) Daniel K. Blewett, Coll. of DuPage Lib., Glen Ellyn, ILCopyright 2002 Cahners Business Information, Inc. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. The World Trade Center disaster made, all too vividly, a point that opponents of the Star Wars missile defense system have long stressed: the threat to the U.S. from terrorists using low-tech weapons is far greater than that of a rogue nation launching an intercontinental ballistic missile. But national missile defense remains a cornerstone of Bush administration policy, so this thorough analysis of the program's history, political support, and scientific feasibility is particularly timely. Veteran Washington Post reporter Graham, a foreign and military affairs specialist, follows missile defense from the Johnson administration's ABM Treaty in the '70s, Reagan's Star Wars system in the '80s, and the initially skeptical position of the Clinton administration. But in the late '90s, the Rumsfeld commission's critical report and North Korea's surprising missile success convinced Clinton to support a limited defense system. That change forms the core of Graham's book; he traces the political, diplomatic, and technological developments that shifted many members of the Clinton administration from doubters to believers.

So-named for its unique shape and inimitable Blue styling, The Ball is our first offering in the dynamic mic category. But a phantom-powered dynamic? Yes. And no. Most recordists know that conventional dynamic mics do not require external DC power. Rather, they employ a relatively simple circuit and derive their output voltage through electromagnetic induction. While this makes them rugged, reliable and easier to operate than their electrostatic counterparts, they also present the user with a unique set of problems. Chief among these is frequency-dependent variable resistance which has dramatic effects on the transducers acoustic balance, phase coherence, noise specification and overall output. Our engineers solved this problem by incorporating a phantom-powered proprietary active balancing circuit in the Balls output stage. This circuit maintains a constant pure-resistive 50-ohm load across the useable frequency spectrum yielding an exceptionally smooth and open sound previously unheard of in a dynamic microphone. Additionally, as a dynamic mic, the Ball is capable of handling extremely high sound pressure levels without distortion, making it the ideal choice for studio, stage, broadcast, film or any other applications where reliability, versatility and the utmost sound quality is required.

DiFranco commemorates her nearly two decades in the business with a two-CD, 35-song retrospective that offers a sequential glimpse into the socially conscious messages and punk/folk articulation that has made her an international paladin. From early recordings such as ""God's Country"" (1993) and ""You Had Time"" (1994), where DiFranco took aim at religious autonomy and failed partnerships, to later songs that tackled violence against abortion providers (1999's ""Hello Birmingham"") and a pair of '80s-era presidents (2002's ""Your Next Bold Move""), DiFranco's poetry-fraught lyrics are the unfeigned star of the compilation. Can't-miss selections like ""32 Flavors,"" ""Untouchable Face,"" and ""Cradle All"" make the cut, while staunch DiFranco followers will be seduced by five new renditions of old favorites, including the intrepid ""Napoleon,"" which blasts the rock-biz elite, and ""Shameless,"" with its candid discourse on infidelity.

The clay will grab at first as it encounters contamination on the paint surface. This is normal. When the clay glides smoothly, the surface is clean. 4. Use the lubricant to remove any clay residue using a microfiber towel. Wipe dry. 5. Inspect the clay after each section. If it appears soiled, reshape it to reveal a clean portion. If dropped on the ground, discard the clay. 16 oz. Trigger Spray A non-abrasive lubricant to enhance our surface-purifying clay! The most thorough car bath cannot rinse away every last bit of residue and overspray that contaminates, and eventually eats away, at your car's paint. To get that show quality, silky-smooth finish, you will need to follow the wash with a clay bar treatment. This step is essential to attain a pristine surface, especially desirable before applying wax or paint sealant. Wolfgang Clay Lubricant is specifically designed to be used with Wolfgang Elastic Poly Clay. When applied on a freshly washed surface Clay Lubricant creates an ultra-fine, slick protective layer between the paint and the clay. This allows the clay to glide across the surface, acting as a magnet for any foreign particles left behind after the wash. When this step is complete, your car's surface will actually be exfoliated, ""purified"" and free of contamination. A lubricant of some kind must be used with all types of clay. Soapy water can work, but it can't provide protection for your paint. Some detergents react with the clay and cause it to deteriorate.

Silicone is acceptable for temperature applications between -65 degrees F (-54 degrees C) to 450 degrees F (232 degrees C). It has good resistance to ozone, weather, detergent, salt water, engine and transmission oil, non-petroleum brake fluid, hydraulic fluids that resist fire, vegetable and animal oils, and high molecular weight chlorinated aromatic hydrocarbons. Silicone is vulnerable to mechanical wear and tear, water and steam over 250 degrees F (121 degrees C), aromatic hydrocarbons (benzene), chlorinated hydrocarbons (trichloroethylene), acids and bases, and hydrocarbon fuels. O-rings commonly provide a pressure and fluid seal between cylindrically shaped, overlapping mating surfaces and are commonly seen in engines, faucets, flanges, valves, and various cylinders. They are circular in shape, with a round cross section and a hole in the center, similar to a doughnut. O-rings are available in a number of sizes, and can be ordered based on required nominal inside diameter (ID), outer diameter (OD), and cross-sectional (CS) diameter. This silicone O-ring has a shore durometer of 70A. Shore durometer is the hardness of a material, and its resistance to permanent indentation. A higher durometer value indicates greater resistance to indentation on a scale of 0 to 100, with 100 indicating no indentation. This silicone O-ring meets standards defined by Aerospace Standard AS568A, which is the Aerospace Size Standard for O-rings.",hydraulics;industrial & scientific;o-rings;pneumatics & plumbing;seals & o-rings,5 1583454861,"The Fox and the Puma ""Barbara Sohmers writes in the preface of THE FOX AND THE PUMA that she loves reading mysteries. She couldn't find any books to her liking one day, and decided to write her own. She succeeded. The book is a good one and I couldn't put it down. The descriptions of the island, its inhabitants and characters are vivid and believable. Sohmers has a way of drawing the reader in, even to the point of being in the thoughts of the escaped mountain lion. THE FOX AND THE PUMA is the first Fred and Maggy adventure to appear in print.

Cox January,1997The Fox And The Puma is set on an island off the coast of France, populated with an unexpected mixture of native farmers and fishermen with more or less affluent vacationers. There are natives like the Town Crier, beating his tinny drum to announce both good and evil news, and the aging femme fatale, Regine, jealous of her lovely, young daughter, and playing her own summer games at the topless beach. A puma escapes from an itinerant circus at the same time that a convicted rapist/murderer does the same from the nearby prison. When a nude, partly devoured woman's body is found near a popular beach, the island erupts into panic. Fred and Maggy Renard will be drawn into the investigation. Old hatreds and sins, dating as far back as the Nazi occupation in World War II, begin to surface, and many more ugly secrets will be exposed. Barbara Sohmers has debuted a marvelous couple into a small world of excitement, romance and danger.

Mystery, generally, is considered a minor genre, good only to distract and entertain. Not many authors manage to contribute something of value to society, while at the same time telling a suspenseful, gripping story,as does Barbara Sohmers in The Fox and the Puma. The underlying theme? Intolerance. Hate, driven not just by the individual demons of a character, but infesting society like a deadly, creeping plague. Sohmers believes there is nothing better than an exciting mystery, with well-painted backdrop and real, sympathetic characters. She also believes that we are all, consciously or not, engaged in the battle against anything that divides us from others, whether they be humans, animals, or the universe itself. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

BARBARA SOHMERS, a native New Yorker, lived and worked for many years in Paris, where she was one of very few foreigners to become an established actress in French theatre and TV. Since her return to the U.S., she has appeared on Broadway and in prestigious Regional Theatres such as Arena Stage, Long Wharf, and the Mark Taper Forum. In 1990, she noticed the first signs of a neurological disorder which affected her speech. Forced to give up acting, she turned to her second love, and began to write full time. Since then, she has completed two one-act plays, four screenplays, and two suspense/ adventure novels. THE FOX AND THE PUMA is the first to appear in print, to be followed by THE FOX AND THE PUSSYCAT.

At first, he refused to believe it. He kept jabbing at the starter button, cursing more viciously each time the engine died until, finally, he had to face the truth. They had run out of fuel. Raging, he stomped back into the cabin, shoving her out of his way, and started searching again, smashing whatever was still intact. He found no fuel, only some bottles of local red wine in the galley. He smashed the neck of one, poured half of it in the 'First Mate"" mug, emptied it, filled it again and drank more. The wine seemed to give him new courage. He dragged the furled sails from their bags, hauled them up on deck and tried, clumsily, to attach one to the mast. The wind tore the canvas from his hands, whipping the loose sheets and halyards around his head until, with a howl of fury, he flung both the mainsail and the jib away. The sails floated awhile, pale, mocking islands among the waves, and were gone. The sloop was adrift. Dominique started to retch. She crawled hastily into the cockpit and hung her head over the side. But her stomach was empty. Nothing came up but a thin, bitter liquid that burned her throat and brought no relief. The man was clinging to the mast, holding himself upright with difficulty against the tossing seas. ""Shut up!"" he screamed. ""Stop that disgusting noise, or I'll kill you right now! "" Dominique's voice was a hoarse croak. ""Kill me! Go on! You think I want to do this? I'd rather be dead!"" The man spat. ""Ach! Go ahead, puke up your guts! Lousy, useless slut! You and your stinking boat can go to hell!"" He staggered back into the cabin. She heard another crash, a gurgle of liquid, then an ""ahhh!"" and a belch. He began to sing again, but it was not a sea chanty this time. "" Deutschland, Deutschland, Uber Alles! "" he shouted, slightly off key. Through the curtain of her soiled hair, Dominique saw a thin streak of light, rising and falling behind the waves astern. Dawn was coming. The necklace of winking lights on the shore seemed more distant than ever. Suddenly, she raised her head. The east! The mainland was behind them! They were drifting westward, toward the island. or, she realized with horror, past the island to the open sea! She tried to get up, but could not balance against the rise and fall of the deck beneath her feet. Gasping with pain from her swollen knee, she crawled to the companionway and yelled at the man sprawled on the settee below. ""You had better get up here! Do something! We're drifting away! You hear me? We are drifting out to sea"" There was a loud crack. Dominique was thrown head first into the cabin and landed on the man's outstretched legs. Then both were flung, first to the floor, then upward against the bulkhead. The boat creaked and shuddered and, with an almost human groan of protest, sank heavily down on one side. The ""Dominique"" had run aground. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.",books;contemporary;literature & fiction;mystery;thriller & suspense,5 B0004JKVRE,"Seventh Generation Facial Tissues, 2-ply Seventh Generation Facial Tissues are made from 1% recycled paper, with a minimum of 8% post consumer materials.

As a lover of good poetry herself, I can't help but think that Miss Austen would be delighted."" -- Jane Dawkins, author, Letters from Pemberley""Selene Goodman uses this small collection of poetry to recapture the feelings underpinning the relationships of many characters in Pride & Prejudice. In doing so she encourages her readers to glimpse life in the nineteenth century through the looking glass of verse. Thus the language mirrors a time much softer than ours as revealed in the nature of courtship. Beating hearts soar with birds & men are torn between desire & duty, whilst troths are pledged as women are found to be charming. Each sonnet is narrated in a voice that rings true to the original character from Austen's prose fiction text. And so, we revisit with old friends to learn Jane is in doubt of Bingley's true affection; Mr Collins' state of smugness is still sufferable, but only by his good lady wife; & Wickham affirms his need for fortune & fame despite the cost to the true nature of being a gentleman. Of great advantage are the quotes from Pride & Prejudice that support both the content & style of the verse. Roses & Thorns records a way of life that will never be lost if we but continue to read Austen's prose & Goodman's verse. Indeed Goodman's work may best be described as a true gallowglass in that she reflects the world that is forever Austen's England."" -- Jill Reece, Jane Austen Society of Australia""Turning prose to poetry... I shouldn't have been surprised that Pride and Prejudice would be the medium for this literary feat! Roses and Thorns has no visible thorns, and the delight in finding (alongside), the paragraphs that inspired Selene's poems enables the reader to experience anew the pleasures of Pride and Prejudice."" -- Patricia Latkin, Jane Austen Books I read Roses and Thorns and was immediately enthralled with the way Selene Goodman captured the essence of the Pride and Prejudice characters. Austen fans everywhere will enjoy this poetry. ""I have always been fascinated with Jane Austen's characters in Pride and Prejudice.

Growing up as an ill-used apprentice to Morach, the much-feared wise woman of the moors, Alys finds respite by joining an order of Catholic nuns. When young Lord Hugo and his men burn the abbey to the ground during a drunken rampage, Alys is the only one to escape; she flees back to Morach, consumed with guilt at having abandoned her dying sisters. Summoned to minister to Lord Hugh, Hugo's father, Alys soon finds herself deeply involved in the treachery and intrigue surrounding the old man's attempts to have his son's marriage to the barren Lady Catherine annulled. Attracted to Hugo despite his murderous past, Alys begins to practice witchcraft in earnest to rid him of Catherine and become his wife. Her spells work all too well: Catherine's long-awaited pregnancy ends disastrously, and Hugo comes to love Alys, but in a sickly haze of lust that provides no basis for marriage. Alys soon finds herself so sunk in evil, so removed from God's love, that only a truly shocking gesture can bring about her salvation. Gregory adeptly manipulates hair-raising horror and mounting suspense, brilliantly evoking the period's turbulent atmosphere. Dou ble day Book Club alternate. Copyright 1993 Reed Business Information, Inc. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. This new novel by the author of Wideacre (S. & S., 1987) and other popular historical fiction profiles a woman versed in charms, conjuring, and fortune-telling who nonetheless falls into catastrophic misfortunes time after time. Escaping from an English convent, young Alys learns the arts of healing and magic from the ""wise woman"" who takes her in. Her struggle to find an independent life takes her among an array of characters, including a mediocre lover, a sickly old man still very much in control of the lives around him, and two challenging women: Marach and Mother Hildebrande. Gregory weaves a vivid tapestry of life in the 16th century, including plenty of sex, as the narrative strains toward a not-unexpected end.- M.E. Chitty, Fairchild International Lib. Inst. , Plainfield, N.J.Copyright 1993 Reed Business Information, Inc. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. A spite-spitting, direful tale set in the reign of England's Henry VIII--and starring a worthy successor to the terrible Beatrice, the murderous prime mover of Gregory's Wideacre (1987), of the Lacey Trilogy. Here, a fierce young woman, status-climbing, learns poor Anne Boleyn's lesson about the price of ambition: ``Never cross a powerful man.'' Young Alys, dreaming, smells the smoke of the burning abbey, but she runs away, leaving her adored Mother Hildebrand to perish- -and returning to the cold, dirty hut of Morach, the local ``wise woman'' who raised her. Mother Hildebrand had given Alys education, cleanliness, beautiful surroundings--and safety. But Morach, who gave Alys a vocation and a hard dose of truth, declares: ``There's no safety for you or for me...[we] do not accord with the way men want.'' When Alys is taken to the castle to heal old Lord Hugh, however, she's overcome by the lure of riches, the scent of power, and desire--for young Hugh (the one who burnt the nuns to death: abbey-burning was a Tudor sport). Before long, Alys, living comfortably if restlessly at the castle, begs Morach for a bit of magic, and three dolls are fashioned, resembling lords old and young as well as the young Hugh's unpleasant fat wife, Lady Catherine. Even Morach is not able to forecast the horror to come- -though at one point she will save Lady Catherine from drowning in the moat (from a castle outlook, Alys ``started humming...like a swarm of toxic bees''). And who could guess that those little dolls were made for walking? Buoyed by eerie successes, Alys betrays those who loved her to terrible deaths--and climbs upward to the inevitable fall. Told with the dark energy of Wideacre, a fem/lib screw-turn or two, messy magic, and a certain mean glee: a chilly period entertainment. -- Copyright 1993, Kirkus Associates, LP.

Feisty, 35-year-old Venetia has recently shed her philandering, ex-soldier husband, Charles, ""who fries cuddly animals for a living."" While Charles is thriving in the pet crematorium business and reveling in his new romance with ""poison dwarf"" Helena, Venetia delouses her sons Felix and Giles; staggers after her hyperactive eight-month-old daughter, ""The Beauty""; and tackles laundry and gardening to avoid writing copy for corporate brochures. As house and garden deteriorate around her, Venetia bewails her fading looks and dependence on her mother, seeking solace in junk food, friends, trashy clothes and Georgette Heyer romance novels. She also refuses to admit that she has a serious crush on David Lanyon, the cute carpenter who volunteers to renovate her bathroom; in exchange, she takes photos for his publicity brochure. Barker keeps things wickedly off-kilter, subjecting various characters to unforeseeable disasters and indignities: one eats a toxic mushroom, one chops off his finger and another stumbles poolside only to have a ""bit of his head"" gobbled up by an affectionate Labrador. Readers who share Venetia's enthusiasm for Georgette Heyer will guess where Barker's predictable tale is heading, but the newer author's caustic pen will endear her to grownups who like their women quick-witted and their fairy tales fractured. Copyright 2000 Reed Business Information, Inc. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. Meet Venetia Summers, a charmingly disorganized, thirtysomething single mom who's doing her best to raise her kids and keep her sanity in a rural English cottage amidst a maelstrom of pets, plants, and wacky relatives. Told in diary format over the course of a year, this work represents literary voyeurism at its best. We share in the birth of a daughter (The Beauty) after Venetia's husband, Charles, leaves her for the dreaded Helena; the antics of Venetia's well-meaning, albeit daffy, mother; chaotic seaside holidays; and the home-improvement projects of the increasingly attractive and available David. This wonderfully entertaining and endearing book, Barker's first American publication after much success in England, will doubtless be favorably compared to Helen Fielding's Bridget Jones's Diary (LJ 5/15/98). Her characters are real, the events believable, and the author able to address some all-too-common family problems without losing the story's humor and appeal. Venetia is a woman many readers would like to have as a friend. Essential for libraries with fans of Bridget Jones.- Susan Clifford Braun, Aerospace Corp., El Segundo, CA Copyright 2001 Reed Business Information, Inc. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. Barker's U.S. debut is in the mold of popular novels about young, sassy women, such as Bridget Jones's Diary (1998) and The Girls' Guide to Hunting and Fishing (1999). As told through the diary of a thirty-something, single mother, Hens Dancing recounts the thoughts, exploits, and struggles of Venetia Simmons over the course of the year following her divorce. Venetia is intelligent, funny, strong, and irreverent. When at her wit's end and surrounded by her three rambunctious children (one known only as The Beauty), a bathroom under construction, a garden in constant need of attention, and an ex-husband who runs a mortuary for pets, nothing puts Venetia back into her right frame of mind better than a facial and a new pair of shoes. Although nothing really earth-shattering happens, Barker humorously explores the everyday trials of one woman trying to raise three children with little money but lots of love. The language, however, includes British slang and cultural references that if not understood, may leave some readers missing the humor. Carolyn KubiszCopyright American Library Association.

And the authors disarming portrait of country life almost makes you want to trade places with Venetia. The Dallas Morning News Hilarity and tenderness abound in this novel narrated in pages torn from the diary of one Venetia Summers, a thirty-something divorced mother of three who resides in rural England and is owner of, among other things, controlling shares in her ex-husband?s pet mortuary and numerous pairs of oddly colored Wellingtons. While Venetia?s life may not be as glamorous as the one she left behind in the city ten years ago, it certainly isn?t dull. She has two exuberant young boys and one splendid baby girl?known simply as The Beauty?to feed and outfit and keep happy. Other responsibilities include upkeep of a lovely but ramshackle old house, complete with a garden growing with wild abandon, and the care of a variety of bloomered bantam hens. Then there?s her mother, sometimes helpful and supportive but more often busy tossing back vodka and smoking cigarettes; a rather cute but presumptuous bathroom contractor and his oversexed Labrador; and various other friends, relations and country characters who dart in and out of Venetia?s life, wreaking havoc along the way.Fortunately for her, Venetia is the sort who can find beauty in the surrounding mayhem, and fortunately for us, she records it all with wry wit and great verve, sharing the joys and sometimes dubious pleasures of raising a family in the English countryside.

The Dallas Morning News Rafaella Barker writes a regular column for the English magazine Country Life. She lives with her husband and three children in Norfolk, in rural England. February 14 - Seven Valentine cards have been delivered to the house this morning by the postman, and not one of them is for me. Three are for Giles, who is eight and therefore at an age where the bolstering effect of a Valentine card goes unnoticed; two are for Felix, six, who is in a big rage that anyone has dared to be so sissy as to send him any; and two are for Charles, forty-one, who had not planned to be at home, but an airport strike prevented his business trip to Paris.How did they know I'd be here? he murmurs, a smirk of smug spreading over his face. He drops the one his secretary always sends him without opening it and looks at the other. It is not from me.The postmark is smudged. Can you read it, darling? he says to me, and, hating to miss an opportunity for one-upmanship, adds, Did you really not get any cards? How odd.Scrutinizing his envelope, I drop it in the washing-up water.Oops, sorry, Charles, it's a bit soggy now.He looks at me with loathing. I smile sweetly.Breakfast is an orgy of martyrdom on my part, as usual unnoticed by spouse and offspring, who according to age and inclination are reading their Valentine cards/the Beano comic/the cereal packet. I clear away, deliberately not asking for help, and return to bed. The telephone clicks a couple of times, and I know better than to pick it up. Charles has a sixth sense for an overheard conversation and will insist he's simply checking in with the office. I think he's having an affair, and am shocked to find that I don't care. Even being five months pregnant doesn't make me care; in fact it cushions me from any feeling toward Charles stronger than mild dislike. So glad the hysteria and throwing things phase has passed.After an hour or so of luxuriating with a romantic novel, Regency Buck (my second-favorite by the peerless Georgette Heyer; I have just finished my namesake and favorite, Venetia, for the seventeenth time), I am renewed and can face the day, so rise again with a view to gardening. Downstairs, the boys hover in an aimless fashion, kicking things and playing Greensleeves repeatedly on the piano. Their father is still on the telephone. They need fresh air.Come on, I need help, you two, I urge. Please will you come and clip the yew hedge with me? Giles continues to play Greensleeves in various keys. Felix shoots at me with a bow and arrow but misses and loses his arrow behind a painting which is propped against the wall, still waiting to be hung.Do we have to? he whines, hurling himself backward onto the sofa. I hate outside, it's really cold. I want to play cowboys in here with Dad.Dad is going outside too, I say firmly, as Charles sidles toward the serenity of the drawing room with his newspaper. He glares, but complies. Felix is won over by the discovery of a magnificent pair of secateurs in the conservatory. Thus armed, he takes a stepladder to my token topiary, a gloriously sculpted ten-foot-tall chicken, and prepares to strike. Charles is passing at this moment, and although he fails to register the chicken crisis, he wants to use the stepladder, so Felix and his flashing blades are diverted to ground level and a less precious bush. Giles, having condemned me as really sad for asking him to help, is forty feet up a tree, shouting instructions to the rest of us about where to find the wheelbarrow, the rake, and all the other garden implements he can see scattered in the long grass, relics of last weekend's attempt to get the children to help outside.Mummy, you've completely missed that spade; go back ten paces and then a little to the right and you'll see the trowel as well.It is pointless to ask him to come downhe won't, and an unseemly shouting match will ensue from which he will emerge victorious and possessor of the high groundliterally. Can't help wishing that instead of encourag- ing him to think of himself as one of life's commanders, his school would exercise a few more Victorian dictums. Seen and not heard, polite to elders and betters, helpful and courteous at all times could all be drummed in to great effect. Sour-lemon thoughts are interrupted by his appearance from the tree with a spray of cherry blossom, a joyful hint of pink in its tiny buds.Happy Valentine's Day, Mummy, he says. February 14One Year Later Woken by the doorbell instead of The Beauty, and dash down to find the postman, grinning, with a handful of cards.Happy Valentine's, love, he says. You're a bit popular, aren't you?Leafing through them in the kitchen, am relieved that he did not notice the names on them: four are for Giles, which seems excessive to me, two for Felix, and one for The Beauty. None for me. Can't help remembering last Valentine's Day. Improvements since then include having become mother of The Beauty (now eight months old), and having shed faithless husband (divorce now three weeks old), but still no Valentine cards. So much for the glamorous life of the divorce.Spluttering and growling noises similar to those made by a small lawn mower announce over the intercom that The Beauty has woken and will require breakfast. So will the boys, now clumping downstairs uttering the usual litany of Mum, where are my shoes? Is there any food? Can we get a Nintendo Sixty-four?Felix freaks out when presented with his cards. I hate them; I don't want anyone to send me Valentine cards. They're for girls. You have them, Mum. He hurls his spoon into the porridge saucepan, and porridge rises like a tidal wave and slops onto the Aga hot plate.But one is from Dad, says Giles. Look, it's definitely his writing.Felix is placated by this, but I am irritated. The school run mother of the day arrives and the boys depart like a mini tornado, books, biscuits, and pencil cases whirling around them, closer and closer until they vanish into rucksacks. The Beauty waves regally, bouncing on my hip as we let the hens out and throw them a few scraps. The air is steel-cold and heavy on the lungs; the hens, plump in ruffled feathers, groan and cluck a bit, then troop back into the henhouse. They are protesting against the weather, and none of them has laid an egg since October. February 17 Odd communication from Charles asking me if I want to sell my shares in Heavenly Petting. He will give me a markup on their value. Instantly suspicious as Charles is the ultimate nipcheese, so send his letter straight to Maurice Salmon, my lawyer.Heavenly Petting began life in an old electrician's workshop on the Bedford Road in Cambridge and came into being because Charles was keen on shooting and wanted to employ a taxidermist to stuff various bird corpses. While investigating taxidermy, Charles became morbidly obsessed with dead animals and quickly recognized a business opportunity. As he had never liked live animals at all, I couldn't take the idea seriously, but he persevered, working day and night to build his first crematorium, before moving out into the local streets to chat up the old ladies who lived in the terraced houses which fanned out from Cambridge into the fens. His first client was a blue budgerigar called Billy. Charles charged Mrs. Day 7 for Billy's funeral service and a cardboard box containing his ashes. The funeral service comprised handing Mrs. Day a piece of paper with Billy's name, type, and age on it, then standing with her in the whitewashed workshop for three minutes listening to a tape of Albinoni's Adagio.We will bring you the ashes a little later. We like to check up on the bereaved to make sure we have done all we can to help, Charles gravely told her, patting her hand as she dabbed her nose with a mournful mauve handkerchief. Mrs. Day tottered home to an empty cage, immaculate, as she had scrubbed it to keep herself busy before the cremation. Charles scooped a spoonful of ash out of the incinerator into which he had chucked Billy's little body sometime earlier, filled a household matchbox he'd painted blue that morning, and arrived on Mrs. Day's doorstep before she had had time to make herself a cup of tea. She couldn't bear the empty cage, she said, so Charles offered to take it away. He sold it for 10 the next day, and hey presto, Heavenly Petting was launched and running at a profit on its first transaction.That was ten years ago. Charles had just left the army, I was pregnant with Giles, and we wanted to live in the countryside. My grandmother had left me some money, and with it and some of his own, Charles bought his first incinerator and the inaugural premises of Heavenly Petting. I found the house, and Heavenly Petting paid for us to live in it. And still does. I suppose any marriage guidance expert, or indeed fortune-teller, could have told me that a marriage to a man who fries cuddly animals for a living would not last, but I never had time to look ahead until too late.",books;british;contemporary;literary;literature & fiction,5 B000072RFO,"Amazon.com: Bristol Women's Cheerleading Shell ( sz.

Commissioned into service in late 1943 and dispatched to the Pacific the following February, the England and its crew, in one 12-day period in 1944, sank more submarines than any other ship in U.S. naval history: of the six targets attacked, all six were destroyed. For this distinction, legendary in the annals of antisubmarine warfare, the ship and her crew were honored with the Presidential Unit Citation. After convoying in the Atlantic, John A. Williamson was assigned to the England?first as its executive officer, then as its commanding officer?from the time of her commissioning until she was dry-docked for battle damage repairs in the Philadelphia Naval Yard 15 months later.

Commissioned into service in late 1943 and dispatched to the Pacific the following February, the England and its crew, in one 12-day period in 1944, sank more submarines than any other ship in U.S. naval history: of the six targets attacked, all six were destroyed. For this distinction, legendary in the annals of antisubmarine warfare, the ship and her crew were honored with the Presidential Unit Citation. John A.

The slim volume opens with the anonymous first-person narrator meeting an old friend named Marin, just released from prison, who proceeds to give the narrator a thorough beating-for old time's sake. Marin and the narrator then get down to the business of planning a perfect crime-for old time's sake. They work with an old comrade and surveillance pro, Andrei, and a former cellmate of Marin's named Lucho, a suspicious character who refuses cognac (""we don't have fun unless we drink,"" the affronted narrator explains to him). The robbery commences with the narrator and a moll named Jeanne deliberately losing a large sum so that they can complain and distract management. Viel does a superb job of establishing a tense atmosphere, writing in long, stream-of-consciousness sentences with staccato rhythms (""In my memory the scene lasted an hour, but in reality five minutes, the alcohol, the concrete, the frowns and our glances pulling tight the drawstring of our fear""). He also pulls off stunning plot twists as several members of the team unveil hidden agendas. The wry old tough guys are familiar figures, of course, but Viel's toast to Hollywood noir and mob movies is crisp and deftly plotted-a treat for crime fiction fans.

The introduction of economic reforms -- known as --more than 10 years ago acted as a catalyst, releasing the energies of the nation left behind after decades of war and isolation. Now wherever you travel in Vietnam -- in the towns, the cities, and the countryside -- you will see people on the go.From the rows of (noodle soup) stalls lining the sidewalks to the numerous vendors selling postcards to the huge neon signs advertising Western chic, it is apparent that this drive to make it in this new era cuts across social boundaries. Billboards hawk everything from Lifebuoy soap to Heineken beer to the newest luxury apartments, and they tower above streets jammed with motorbikes, bicycles, and more and more cars.Now that the Soviets have departed, what becomes evident is the Vietnamese people's amazing resilience after so many thousands of years of conflict. From each of their foreign rulers they have taken what appealed to them and melded the most dissonant elements of foreign cultures into a way of life uniquely their own. When you visit Vietnam you can't help but marvel at the Vietnamese people's endurance. Waiflike, silk-clad women bear yokes hung with baskets of rice weighing twice their own weight. Or they build roads, protected only by a conical hat and a perfectly white handkerchief tied over nose and mouth. You also can't help but admire their panache: don't be surprised to encounter a pair of bareheaded men careening on a motorbike through city traffic at the height of a midday downpour, the driver tooting his horn with a soggy cigarette in his mouth, his companion, arms outstretched, balancing a large pane of glass on his knees. That mixture of practicality and bravado is in some ways the essence of Vietnam, and it is what's taking the country into the future.?Architecture Vietnamese architecture is as eclectic as its culture. A host of invading and vanquished civilizations -- the Cham, the Chinese, the French, the Americans, and the Russians -- have left their marks on the nation in a hodgepodge of contrasting styles.Most temples and pagodas around the country reflect the Chinese influence on Vietnamese culture. But because the Vietnamese mainly built using wood, many ancient pagodas and temples ""still standing"" have actually been rebuilt, often many times. The layout and foundations of the Temple of Literature in Hanoi, for example, may be 900 years old, but many of the wooden structures of the pagoda and entrance gate are renovations. In Hue, the citadel surrounding the impressive Imperial City, although modeled on its Chinese counterpart, the Forbidden City in Beijing, is actually relatively modern -- it was constructed in the early 19th century by French architect Olivier de Puymanel. Sadly, much of this exquisite palace was destroyed during the 1968 Tet Offensive. Hue also has an incredible collection of tombs -- vast and beautiful temples to emperors, constructed in an array of architectural styles reflecting the wealth of Vietnam's royal families. Some structures, such as the 10th-century capital of Hoa Lu, southeast of Hanoi, have been around for centuries.ArtWhether you're a seasoned collector or just like pretty pictures, you can appreciate the explosion of Vietnamese art splashed onto canvases throughout the country. Much of the work is derivative (copies of French masters, for instance) or clich?d, but some is truly unique and impressive. A handful of painters, including members of the loosely knit but hiply and cleverly named ""Gang of Five"" (Ha Tri Hieu, Hong Viet Dung, Dang Xuan Hoa, Pham Quang Vinh, and Tran Luong), are treated as conquering heroes by expatriates, collectors, and international artists. The undisputed art capital is Hanoi, where dozens of galleries line their walls with the latest by Vietnam's rising stars. An afternoon meandering through the galleries is a must. Lacquerware (a Chinese creation, which the Vietnamese have embraced as their own) and stone and wood sculptures are for sale everywhere. Many pieces are painstaking replicas of ancient figures or statues, whereas others are chintzy knockoffs. A trained eye will easily distinguish the trash from the treasure. And if you're in the country to make major art purchases, it is crucial you work with a respected dealer; fakes of the more famous artists are sprouting like weeds.BeachesUnlike Thailand and other Southeast Asian countries, Vietnam's beach culture is still largely undeveloped. The country's endless stretch of pristine coast is still a working shoreline, home to thousands of fishing families who row daily into the surf in tiny, oval-shape boats woven from reed and rattan. Some towns along the coast, however, are beginning to be developed to accommodate the influx of tourists. Nha Trang is home to the Thai-style Ana Mandara resort, and China Beach, near Danang, has the Furama Resort, an international hotel opened in 1997. Other new resorts are opening in Phan Thiet and Vung Tau.DiningAlthough it may not look it at first glance, Vietnam is a nation obsessed with its culinary traditions. Rule 1: Vietnamese food is not ""Chinese food without the spices."" Sophisticated cuisine, distinct from what is north of its border, has evolved in Vietnam over the last few thousand years. Soy sauce is not as common in Vietnam as in China, for instance; instead, the nearly universal seasoning of choice in the country is -- inadequately translated as fish sauce -- a clear amber liquid pressed out of large barrels of anchovies and salt. This exquisitely complex condiment submerges itself in the flavors of other ingredients -- it's truly a remarkable concoction. Don't be put off by the smell of this potent liquid; skeptical foreigners have been known to become converts after a couple of experiences. But do take care not to overdo it, as a little bit goes a long way.",asia;books;southeast;travel;vietnam,5 B000EGDB06,"Wiltern Lg - Los Angeles Ca 10/29/05 Bauhaus slid fully formed from punk rock's womb in late 1978. Over the course of four hot years, they unintentionally birthed a genre (Goth), moved on, moved forward, and surged mercurial through the post-punk music scene, tearing into tense, bass-driven new-wave, T-Rex-esque dark-glam, and swirling, clattering, orchestral atmospherics, whilst churning it into a grand, velvet, Rimbaudian hallucination. To pin the band to one genre is nothing but reductive. Their influences run deep, encompassing everything from dub reggae to proto-electronic bands like Can and Suicide. As the NME says, ""Bauhaus are to Goth, what Radiohead are to Prog."" It's all building blocks; you see it when they play live. It comes to you in sudden illuminations! You realize that The Faint, The Killers and Moving Units got their twisted, sexclub beats from Bauhaus. That the sensual 'disco punk' darkness The Rapture milk, was unpasteurized dairy to Bauhaus 20 years ago and second-nature at that. Seeing Bauhaus live brings it all back home. How-without them-there wouldn't be a Nine Inch Nails or a Jane's Addiction or a Bloc Party, Franz Ferdinand, AFI, Interpol, Hot Hot Heat. Sui generis. The accomplishments of singer Peter Murphy, bassist David J, guitarist Daniel Ash and drummer Kevin Haskins are too many to list here. But to touch lightly, there are the four studio albums-In the Flat Field (1980), Mask (1981), The Sky's Gone Out (1982), and Burning from the Inside (1983)-which merged icy detachment with impassioned artistic violence. There's the rivetting appearance with David Bowie in The Hunger, this at the Thin White Duke's royal request. There are the classic Peel sessions. Live recordings. And hits, seismic rumbles, crushing hymns like ""She's in Parties,"" ""Kick in the Eye,"" ""Stigmata Martyr"" and the great, epic, pillar of ether and brooding, stark psychedelia, ""Bela Lugosi's Dead."" Like Iggy Pop sang, it was ""soul radiation in the dead of night, love in the middle of a firefight."" And it still is. Bauhaus' 1998 'Resurrection' world tour was a smashing success but only foretold of that which was to come: This year's full-scale reunion, kicking off with a hush-hush, pre-Coachella secret show in LA, where the band took the stage and played savage like they'd never left-still full of fire and heart and poise, before disappearing back into the wings like the phantoms of the teenage opera they were once dubbed by the press and then the already legendary, spot-light stealing performance at the big festival in the dessert. Funky but dangerous, doomy but not without a certain Godardian sense of humor, it is a sound dead-set relevant to life today. As the guns of war rattle, and society falls back to 1980s conservatism, as hands in the darkness reach out for a guiding star, Bauhaus has returned to claim what's theirs... the world, you, your heart, everything.

Drawn to music at a young age, his first musical interests developed with classical and jazz influences while his peers were embracing Elvis Presley. Starting with an electric guitar he built himself, Kerry focused on writing songs as he learned to play -- seeking to create songs that if nothing else, were original. Kerry's first band was the Gimlets, which he formed with several close friends in high school. After school and on weekends, they soon found themselves booked throughout Kansas and neighboring Missouri. Kerry's involvement with the band continued through college, before joining the Mellotones, a mainstream rhythm and blues band. Driven by a desire for more creative expression, Kerry formed Saratoga, who played for audience members around the area, including a young drummer named Phil Ehart and a bass player, Dave Hope. In 1970, they formed the group, Kansas, combining the best members from their respective bands. Known for their sometimes bizarre originality, the band went through several iterations before becoming the six-member group signed by Don Kirshner in 1973. Kerry remained with the band for 13 years as the band's primary song writer, lead guitarist and keyboard player. Penning such hits as ""Carry On Wayward Son"" and ""Dust in the Wind,"" Kerry propelled the band to worldwide success and critical acclaim, with numerous gold and multi-platinum albums, and over 14 million recordings sold to date. In 1980, after becoming an evangelical Christian, Kerry Livgren released his first solo work, Seeds of Change, featuring vocalists Ronnie James Dio and David Pack of Ambrosia, Jethro Tulls drummer Barriemore Barlow, and guest spots by friends from Kansas. Also accompanying the album was Kerry's autobiographical book of the same name. Together, they expressed the passage and resolution of Kerry's years-long spiritual journey, often the subject of his songs with Kansas. Following his departure from Kansas in 1983, Kerry recorded his second self-produced album for CBS, Timeline, in the same year. With the musicians involved in that project, he formed the band, AD. Between 1983 and 1986, the band released two albums and toured extensively. Kerry next signed with Sparrow records and released Prime Mover in 1988, followed by his first instrumental work, One of Several Possible Musiks in 1989. Exploring a new musical direction, this confluence of orchestral and rock styles received the Dove Award for Instrumental Album of the Year. Livgren concluded this period with his final album for Sparrow. Decade was a double CD retrospective marking ten years since his first solo recording. Featuring two complete albums, excerpts from others and previously unreleased songs, the set continues to be highly regarded among enthusiasts of his music. In 1994, Kerry moved from Atlanta back to his home town of Topeka Kansas. Once there, he initiated his production companies, Grandyzine, and record company, Numavox Records. As part of this work, he constructed a state-of-the-art recording and production facility on his farm, in the frame of a restored barn.

In alto saxophonist Danny Zamir, the world has a prodigy--or at least a player and composer of distinct enough talents that he deserves widespread acclaim on the basis only of his debut CD, Satlah. Released under Tzadik Records' ""Great Jewish Music"" umbrella, Satlah bucks from the opening into a klezmer-rooted tune that quickly showcases Zamir's yearning, warmly keening tone as his trio runs through a strong melody that recalls Sonny Rollins as much as the Klezmorim. But Zamir, an Israeli native, invites Tzadik founder John Zorn onboard, and they mesh splendidly on the melodies, which stay in the klezmer realm even as they move into the less-charted world of an Ornette Colemanesque soundscape where soloing and melody are largely indistinguishable. Zamir and Zorn engage in some high-intensity chases, as well, each rasping their way back to melodies that remain in the ear after they've disappeared. There are cantor samples, assorted toys and bells interpolated between and through some tunes, and minor-key melodies aplenty throughout Satlah, a word whose meaning, Zamir points out in the liner notes, is Hebrew slang for ""euphoria."" Zamir's debut is aptly named. --Andrew Bartlett At nineteen, Danny Zamir's already a fine alto saxophonist. Here he plays with his trio Satlah, which includes bassist Shanir Ezra Blumenkranz and drummer Kevin Zubek. Executive producer John Zorn makes discreet guest appearances on alto.Already Zamir has some things in place. He's got fine chops, executing everything so easily he gives the impression of technique-in-reserve. He swings solidly and buoyantly and possesses a fertile melodic imagination; his improvisation has a nice, relaxed flow and good continuity, and he resolves ideas well.In the music of Satlah, Zamir seems to be synthesizing ideas from various sources: Zorn, Near Eastern and Balkan genres (including a traditional Yemenite melody), Ornette Coleman, and pop-funk. Zamir wrote the originals on this disc, and most of them feature him blowing over repeated rhythm vamps. Actually, there are too many of these tunes; Danny's an imaginative improviser, but including so many harmonically static selections tends to cause monotony. Welcome exceptions here include ""Poem 12B,"" which samples liturgical music, and the pretty ""Poem 1""- here Danny shows a lyrical gift. Blumenkranz and Zubek provide springy, strong accompaniment.

This CD's lineup alone elicits an immediate ""wow"" response: Shania Twain, Joss Stone, LeAnn Rimes, Macy Gray, Indigo Girls, k.d. lang, and more have each packed the collection with previously-unreleased music. With half of the disc recently-written songs and half covers of old classics, the originals ultimately prove to be the highlight. Shania Twain's ""Shoes"" is a future line-dancin' classic, analogizing men to shoes (""a girl can't never have too many of 'em""). Joss Stone's ""Treat Me Right"" is nothing short of sexy, soul perfection, while SheDaisy's performance of the Jann Arden -penned ""God Bless the American Housewife"" kicks things off in a dark country style. The ""who's that girl with the voice?"" award goes to Idina Menzel (Rent, Wicked) for her powerhouse performance of ""Damsel In Distress."" The covers on this CD are ultimately more clever than killer, but Liz Phair's take on the Rolling Stones' ""Mother's Little Helper,"" the Indigo Girls' ""Mrs. Robinson,"" and Martina McBride's ""Harper Valley PTA"" match the mood of the series perfectly.

I purchased this CD unheard and hoping for simple traditional Chinese music and was initially disappointed when I heard the symphonic and classical type compositions contained here.

It's bad enough that her tan and her beauty make her classmates think she's a playgirl, but Sae is doing everything in her power to sabotage Momo's relationship with her boyfriend Toji. And poor Toji is just too naive to see that Sae is a lying, manipulative vixen. Luckily, Momo has Kiley watching her back, but since Kiley has a crush on her, Toji is suspicious of their relationship. Melodramatic? Well, there is the moment Momo threatens to jump out the fourth-floor hospital window unless Toji listens to her side of the story, but other than that, Peach Girl is surprisingly down to earth and reflective of the cliques, rumors, and betrayals that plague high schools. Momo is a fun, appealing character to root for, Toji is cute (if clueless), and Kiley is a sweetheart, ready to help Momo fight for Toji even though (or maybe because) he loves her. Sae's an intelligent, determined antagonist, and Ueda renders her expressions, from cunning to calculation to delight, wonderfully. The black-and-white art is kinetic, with a focus on facial expressions and luminous eyes. Peach Girl is enlivened by humor, from Kiley reacting as if struck by lightning (cartoon skeleton and all) when he and Momo see Toji and Sae in a compromising position, to cat-girl Sae, her usual form when conniving.Susan Salpini, Fairfax County Public Schools, VACopyright 2002 Cahners Business Information, Inc.

The eponymous narrator, fascinated by man's power over the world, lets himself be caught in a nonlethal trap and is transformed by a ""woman of light"" into human form. He is now Robert, the coachman who drives Amadea (former scullery maid) to the Prince's ball in a gold coach (formerly a pumpkin) pulled by six white horses (once mice). At midnight they all revert to their original forms, but our hero can no longer communicate with rats; he can talk with humans, however. Robert searches for the woman of light, who appears after Princess Amadea and the Prince are killed by a mob. Transformed to coachman again, Robert plots revenge on the town. Employing armies of rats, his vendetta turns out disastrously for everyone, including the tormented Robert. Comparisons between men and rodents are effective, and the story has the simple, propulsive feel of a real fairy tale. But not for children.

In the interior, you might be surrounded by noise in a beer-washed pub or hear the thump of rocks under your 4WD, only to be transfixed by a slow, silent swirl of outback dust or an outrageously beautiful sunset. Some roads are so long and straight that no matter how fast you go, it's as if you're barely moving. Around the coast, you'll be tasting the foam of ocean surf or pedalling furiously down a mountain, then end up diving down into a coral garden, taking an endless breath in the depths of a rainforest, or slowly realizing you have an entire beach to yourself.

Tomorrow, she might be sitting a few rows from a stage, watching as kids audition for Christian theater. When you find Schulte, you'll notice she's holding a pen in one hand and a notebook in the other. Whatever kind of book she's writing whether historical fiction, a book for preteens, or an adult novel she feels that research is necessary to create an accurate, relevant story. ""I do a lot more research than you'd think,"" says the author of 27 novels. Although she focuses mainly on books, Schulte occasionally writes magazine articles. A recent article presents guidelines for choosing children's novels. She believes that ""warning Christians about the content of secular novels"" is one aspect of her ministry. ""So many people think that just because their children are reading a book, it's better than hanging out in the mall or doing drugs, "" she says. ""But some of the secular novels are so terrible that they're imprinting very bad things in [the readers'] brains."" That's one of the reasons she began writing the ""Twelve Candles Club"" series for young girls. ""My agent called me and said, 'Could you do something like the [secular] 'Baby-sitters Club' series but with a Christian accent?"" At the time, Schulte was enjoying the success of her adult books and wasn't sure she wanted to write children's books. But she decided to give it a try, and the ""Twelve Candles Club"" series was born. Although the ""Twelve Candles"" titles deal with issues facing girls, such as blended families and coping with siblings, Schulte is quick to point out they're not ""problem"" books. ""There's a place for problem books. I've written some myself, but the 'Twelve Candles Club' is a series I want girls to enjoy and still be encouraged in their walk with Christ,"" she says. size : 5.2 x 7.5",action & adventure;books;children's books;literature & fiction;religious fiction,5 B00015CJ6W,"Colonial At Home Kiwi Pear Oval Jar Candle 22 Oz.

Chapter OneEnter the ManSome notable sight was drawing the passengers, both men and women, to the window; and therefore I rose and crossed the car to see what it was. I saw near the track an enclosure, and round it some laughing men, and inside it some whirling dust, and amid the dust some horses, plunging, huddling, and dodging. They were cow ponies in a corral, and one of them would not be caught, no matter who threw the rope. We had plenty of time to watch this sport, for our train had stopped that the engine might take water at the tank before it pulled us up beside the station platform of Medicine Bow.1 We were also six hours late, and starving for entertainment. The pony in the corral was wise, and rapid of limb. Have you seen a skilful boxer watch his antagonist with a quiet, incessant eye? Such an eye as this did the pony keep upon whatever man took the rope. The man might pretend to look at the weather, which was fine; or he might affect earnest conversation with a bystander: it was bootless. The pony saw through it. No feint hoodwinked him. This animal was thoroughly a man of the world. His undistracted eye stayed fixed upon the dissembling foe, and the gravity of his horse-expression made the matter one of high comedy. Then the rope would sail out at him, but he was already elsewhere; and if horses laugh, gayety must have abounded in that corral. Sometimes the pony took a turn alone; next he had slid in a flash among his brothers, and the whole of them like a school of playful fish whipped round the corral, kicking up the fine dust, and (I take it) roaring with laughter. Through the window-glass of our Pullman2 the thud of their mischievous hoofs reached us, and the strong, humorous curses of the cow-boys. Then for the first time I noticed a man who sat on the high gate of the corral, looking on. For he now climbed down with the undulations of a tiger, smooth and easy, as if his muscles flowed beneath his skin. The others had all visibly whirled the rope, some of them even shoulder high. I did not see his arm lift or move. He appeared to hold the rope down low, by his leg. But like a sudden snake I saw the noose go out its length and fall true; and the thing was done. As the captured pony walked in with a sweet, church-door expression, our train moved slowly on to the station, and a passenger remarked, ""That man knows his business.""But the passenger's dissertation upon roping I was obliged to lose, for Medicine Bow was my station. I bade my fellow-travellers good-by, and descended, a stranger, into the great cattle land. And here in less than ten minutes I learned news which made me feel a stranger indeed.My baggage was lost; it had not come on my train; it was adrift somewhere back in the two thousand miles that lay behind me. And by way of comfort, the baggage-man remarked that passengers often got astray from their trunks, but the trunks mostly found them after a while. Having offered me this encouragement, he turned whistling to his affairs and left me planted in the baggage-room at Medicine Bow. I stood deserted among crates and boxes, blankly holding my check, furious and forlorn. I stared out through the door at the sky and the plains; but I did not see the antelope shining among the sage-brush, nor the great sunset light of Wyoming. Annoyance blinded my eyes to all things save my grievance: I saw only a lost trunk. And I was muttering half-aloud, ""What a forsaken hole this is!"" when suddenly from outside on the platform came a slow voice: -- ""Off to get married again? Oh, don't!""The voice was Southern and gentle and drawling; and a second voice came in immediate answer, cracked and querulous: -- ""It ain't again. Who says it's again? Who told you, anyway?""And the first voice responded caressingly: -- ""Why, your Sunday clothes told me, Uncle Hughey. They are speakin' mighty loud o' nuptials.""""You don't worry me!"" snapped Uncle Hughey, with shrill heat.And the other gently continued, ""Ain't them gloves the same yu' wore to your last weddin'?""""You don't worry me! You don't worry me!"" now screamed Uncle Hughey.Already I had forgotten my trunk; care had left me; I was aware of the sunset, and had no desire but for more of this conversation. For it resembled none that I had heard in my life so far. I stepped to the door and looked out upon the station platform.Lounging there at ease against the wall was a slim young giant, more beautiful than pictures. His broad, soft hat was pushed back; a loose-knotted, dull-scarlet handkerchief sagged from his throat; and one casual thumb was hooked in the cartridge-belt that slanted across his hips. He had plainly come many miles from somewhere across the vast horizon, as the dust upon him showed. His boots were white with it. His overalls were gray with it. The weather-beaten bloom of his face shone through it duskily, as the ripe peaches look upon their trees in a dry season. But no dinginess of travel or shabbiness of attire could tarnish the splendor that radiated from his youth and strength. The old man upon whose temper his remarks were doing such deadly work was combed and curried to a finish, a bridegroom swept and garnished; but alas for age! Had I been the bride, I should have taken the giant, dust and all.He had by no means done with the old man.""Why, yu've hung weddin' gyarments on every limb!"" he now drawled, with admiration. ""Who is the lucky lady this trip?""The old man seemed to vibrate. ""Tell you there ain't been no other! Call me a Mormon,3 would you?""""Why, that -- """"Call me a Mormon? Then name some of my wives. Name two. Name one. Dare you!"""" -- that Laramie wido' promised you -- """"Shucks!"""" -- only her docter suddenly ordered Southern climate and -- """"Shucks! You're a false alarm."""" -- so nothing but her lungs came between you. And next you'd most got united with Cattle Kate, only -- """"Tell you you're a false alarm!"""" -- only she got hung.""""Where's the wives in all this? Show the wives! Come now!""""That corn-fed biscuit-shooter4 at Rawlins yu' gave the canary -- """"Never married her. Never did marry -- """"But yu' come so near, uncle! She was the one left yu' that letter explaining how she'd got married to a young cyard-player the very day before her ceremony with you was due, and -- """"Oh, you're nothing; you're a kid; you don't amount to -- """" -- and how she'd never, never forget to feed the canary.""""This country's getting full of kids,"" stated the old man, witheringly. ""It's doomed."" This crushing assertion plainly satisfied him. And he blinked his eyes with renewed anticipation. His tall tormentor continued with a face of unchanging gravity, and a voice of gentle solicitude: -- ""How is the health of that unfortunate -- """"That's right! Pour your insults! Pour 'em on a sick, afflicted woman!"" The eyes blinked with combative relish.""Insults? Oh, no. Uncle Hughey!""""That's all right! Insults goes!""""Why, I was mighty relieved when she began to recover her mem'ry. Las' time I heard, they told me she'd got it pretty near all back. Remembered her father, and her mother, and her sisters and brothers, and her friends, and her happy childhood, and all her doin's except only your face. The boys was bettin' she'd get that far too, give her time. But I reckon afteh such a turrable sickness as she had, that would be expectin' most too much.""At this Uncle Hughey jerked out a small parcel. ""Shows how much you know!"" he cackled. ""There! See that! That's my ring she sent me back, being too unstrung for marriage. So she don't remember me, don't she? Ha-ha! Always said you were a false alarm.""The Southerner put more anxiety into his tone. ""And so you're a-takin' the ring right on to the next one!"" he exclaimed. ""Oh, don't go to get married again, Uncle Hughey! What's the use o' being married?""""What's the use?"" echoed the bridegroom, with scorn. ""Hm! When you grow up you'll think different.""""Course I expect to think different when my age is different. I'm havin' the thoughts proper to twenty-four, and you're havin' the thoughts proper to sixty.""""Fifty!"" shrieked Uncle Hughey, jumping in the air.The Southerner took a tone of self-reproach. ""Now, how could I forget you was fifty,"" he murmured, ""when you have been telling it to the boys so careful for the last ten years!""Have you ever seen a cockatoo -- the white kind with the top-knot -- enraged by insult? The bird erects every available feather upon its person. So did Uncle Hughey seem to swell, clothes, mustache, and woolly white beard; and without further speech he took himself on board the East-bound train, which now arrived from its siding in time to deliver him.Yet this was not why he had not gone away before. At any time he could have escaped into the baggage-room or withdrawn to a dignified distance until his train should come up. But the old man had evidently got a sort of joy from this teasing. He had reached that inevitable age when we are tickled to be linked with affairs of gallantry, no matter how.With him now the East-bound departed slowly into that distance whence I had come. I stared after it as it went its way to the far shores of civilization. It grew small in the unending gulf of space, until all sign of its presence was gone save a faint skein of smoke against the evening sky. And now my lost trunk came back into my thoughts, and Medicine Bow seemed a lonely spot. A sort of ship had left me marooned in a foreign ocean; the Pullman was comfortably steaming home to port, while I -- how was I to find Judge Henry's ranch? Where in this unfeatured wilderness was Sunk Creek? No creek or any water at all flowed here that I could perceive. My host had written he should meet me at the station and drive me to his ranch.

The Virginian, manly cowpuncher of the Wild West, wins the heart of a schoolteacher from Vermont. Brave, unassuming and sensitive, he saves the county from horse thieves, caters to an obsessive chicken named Emily and sweeps the young teacher off her feet with his reinterpretation of Browning. Winiarski succeeds in animating the Virginian's wit and mannerisms although his drawl is unconvincing. His female voices are smooth and natural. The reading quickly draws attention away from itself and to the details of each scene.

Seattle sludge slingers Soundgarden made a living out of cathartic, woe-is-me wailing (we're talking the banshee vocals of Chris Cornell and the crypt-creaking guitar of Kim Thayil), but this wallowing in grim depression ironically proved to be the band's most uplifting career effort. When the reclusive Cornell ventures out of his shy-guy shell, it's typically via a primal scream of cathartic emotion--he might camp it up with a sophomoric ""Spoon Man,"" but most of this vicious disc leaps straight for your jugular.

Tuned well, it's hard to believe there's really a subwoofer in use; the bass seems to emanate naturally from the other speakers. A continuously variable crossover (50 to 150 Hz) and level control allow the BU-120 to blend with nearly any room and system. Achieving the perfect crossover point and volume level will depend entirely on your other speakers and your taste, so suit yourself--this subwoofer lets you. Positioning can be tricky, so if it doesn't sound perfect right off the bat, try moving it around some; a 180-degree phase-invert switch helps with distances of more than five feet. Infinity recommends placing the BU-120 away from walls, and we found our sweet spot--the point where the subwoofing low frequencies blended seamlessly with the rest of our system--in fairly short order. Setup, while simple, will depend on how you want to configure your system, but rest assured that the flexible BU-120 can accommodate receiver/preamplifiers with dedicated subwoofer/low-frequency outputs and those without. The flip side of this flexibility is that the BU-120 wants two inputs, a left and a right, even if you're feeding it a mono, low-frequency output (as in a Dolby Digital or DTS 5.1-channel system). In that event, the monaural signal must be split using an RCA ""Y"" cable (one female to two male, not supplied)--an inexpensive but inconvenient fix. For dynamic, made-to-order low-end presence at a reasonable price, the Infinity BU-120 is hard to beat.

Los Angeles TimesSuch style...such a strong central idea...the showdown is as unremitting as the build-up. Sunday Times of London Such style...such a strong central idea...the showdown is as unremitting as the build-up. Sunday Times of LondonThis is an extremely well-written Western and gives the reader vivid insight into the workings of the mind of a wanderer and gun man. Baton Rouge, Louisiana Sunday AdvocateThe Shootist by Glendon Swarthout is the tale of the Old West's version of the modern 'hit man.' It is a splendid story, well-told and with a really satisfying ending. Charleston, South Carolina Evening Post The Shootist is John Bernard Books, a man of principle and the only surviving gunfighter in a vanishing American West.He rides into El Paso in the year 1901, on the day Queen Victoria died, there to be told by a doctor that he must soon confront the greatest shootist of all: Death himself. In such a showdown, against such an antagonist, he cannot win. Most men end their days in bed or take their own lives, but a man-killer has a third option, one which Books decides to exercise. He may choose his own executioner.As word spreads that the famous assassin has reached the end of his rope, an assortment of vultures gathers to feast upon his corpse--among them a gambler, a rustler, an undertaker, an old love, a reporter, even a boy. Books outwits them, however, by selecting the where, when, who, and why of his death and writing in fire from a pair of Remingtons the last courageous act of his own legend. The climatic gunfight itself is an incredible performance by an incredible man, and by his creator, Glendon Swarthout. The Shootist will rank with such classics as Shane and The Ox-Bow Incident, but it is much more than a Western. When, in the final afternoon of his life, J. B. Books crosses a street and enters a saloon to make something of his death, we cross, we enter, with him. He is us. The Shootist is John Bernard Books, a gunfighter at the turn of the twentieth century who must confront the greatest Shootist of all: Death. Most men would end their days in bed or take their own lives, but a gunfighter has a third option, one that Books decides to exercise. He may choose his own executioner.As word spreads that the famous assassin has incurable cancer, an assortment of human vultures gathers to feast on the corpse--among them a gambler, a rustler, a clergyman, an undertaker, an old love, a reporter, even an admiring teenager. What follows is the last courageous act in Books's own legend.This classic, Spur Award-winning novel was chosen by the Western Writers of America as one of the best western novels ever written and was the inspiration for John Wayne's last great starring role in the acclaimed 1976 film adaptation. The Bison Books edition includes a new introduction by the author's son, Miles Swarthout, in which he discusses his father's work and the making of the legendary film. Glendon Swarthout was twice nominated by his publishers for the Pulitzer Prize in fiction. First by Random House in 1958 for his New York Times-listed bestseller, They Came To Cordura, which Robert Rossen filmed for Columbia Pictures. Cordura starred Gary Cooper in his next to last role and Rita Hayworth in one of her better later performances. Glendon's 2nd Pulitzer nomination was from Doubleday in 1970 for Bless the Beasts Children, one of the first novels written about animal rights activists, in this book a bunch of misfit campers from a teenaged boys' camp near Prescott, Arizona, who set out to free a herd of captive buffalo from penned slaughter in a state-sponsored buffalo hunt. Stanley Kramer filmed Glendon's biggest bestseller in 1972 with the Carpenters' Oscar-nominated theme song. Glendon's other novels made into films included a Randolph Scott Western, Seventh Cavalry (1956), and Where The Boys Are, which Hollywood turned into the first of the beach pictures back in 1960 starring George Hamilton and Connie Francis (with her famous theme song). Glendon's classic holiday story, A Christmas Gift, was made into a 1978 CBS TV-Movie, retitled A Christmas To Remember, starring Joanne Woodward, Eva Marie Saint and Jason Robards. A short comedy from one of his short stories, Mulligans!, played many film festivals and on the Womens' Entertainement (WE) cable channel in 2000. Mulligans! starred Tippi Hedren and Marcia Rodd. Almost all of Glendon's 16 novels and his 6 novellas for young adults are available as ebooks on Kindle.

By the time this was recorded in 1992, the go-go trend had long since peaked for Brown, while the twentysomething Cassidy was still an unknown local session vocalist. Yet, on this set of standards, the two collaborate as if they were picking up where they'd left off decades earlier, from easy-riding versions of ""Let the Good Times Roll"" and ""Gee Baby, Ain't I Good to You"" to near-definitive renditions of ""Over the Rainbow"" and ""Dark End of the Street."" And while it's easy to focus on the posthumously acclaimed Cassidy, Brown's haunting solo turn on ""You Don't Know What Love Is"" suggests that unjustly overlooked talents are still making music in the shadows of our nation's capital. --Bill Forman CD",folk;jazz;music;pop;r&b,5 0345348125,"All She Can Be But her success as a bestselling author of sexy historical romances had cost Rita Bellamy her marriage -- and jeopardized her relationships with her three grown children.

Decades later, in 1899, Orator Francis Woodward bought the rights to Jell-O brand gelatin from Mr. Wait for $450. Three years later, Woodward launched the advertising campaign, ""America's most favorite Dessert"" for Jell-O. Today, Jell-O, which now includes pudding and other desserts, is a member of the Kraft family of brands. About Kraft Kraft has come a long way since 29-year-old James L. Kraft moved from Ontario, canada, to Chicago and started selling cheese to grocers from a horse-drawn wagon. In fact, the story dates back further, since for more than 200 years, many companies have united to make Kraft Foods what it is today. It started before the Revolution--in Dorchester, Massachusetts--when, in 1765, a local physician, Dr. James Baker, went into partnership with a young Irish chocolate-maker, John Hannon. It was America's first chocolate mill, where, in 1780, they made a blend of quality chocolate called Baker's chocolate. Baker's chocolate was the first of a long list of companies that have joined Kraft Foods, Inc., in making good food for busy families. In 1988, Kraft became part of Philip Morris Companies Inc., and a year later Philip Morris Companies combined Kraft and General Foods Corp. to form Kraft General Foods, the largest food company in the U.S. Some of the most popular and well-known brands in the Kraft family include Maxwell House, Yuban, Oscar Mayer, Breakstone, Grape-Nuts, Jell-O, Post, Minute Rice, Cheez Whiz, Cracker Barrell, Tang, Cool Whip, Shake 'N Bake, Stove Top, General Foods International Coffees, and many, many more. American families have been going for something Jell-O since 1897, when Jell-O gelatin was invented by Mr. Pearle B. Wait in Leroy, New York. Green Apple Jell-O has a sweet, delicious flavor and it's easy to prepare: just add water and allow to set in the refrigerator. Today, Jell-O gelatin is the world's most popular prepared dessert, selling over 300 million boxes every year. Nine boxes of Jell-O gelatin are sold every second in the United States.

The longtime search of the Sox for that elusive victory had become part of our cultural consciousness: any mention of the long-suffering but ever-hopeful Red Sox Nation (as the fans are called) was understood throughout the U.S. Montville has brought together a treasure trove of stories, including his own, that give just the right sense of what it has meant to be a fan of this team. The similar themes never become tedious or repetitive: instead they work together to depict the Red Sox fan base. Even for those who do not care about the team or about baseball, this book offers wonderful insight into the passions that one develops in youth and about their importance in our lives.Ted Westervelt, Library of Congress, Washington, DC Copyright Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc.

Slash sank down into the arena-metal mud. The only member of late supergroup Guns N' Roses to get it garage-rock right, in fact, was rhythm guitarist Stradlin, who hooked up with fellow riff worshipper Rick (Georgia Satellites) Richards for some of the best down 'n' dirty picking this side of Exile on Main Street. This sophomore release is sloppy, scratchy, and growling with gut-level blues-rock. Stradlin pays homage to longtime influence Ron Wood by aping his speedball cover of Chuck Berry's Memphis.

He's singing anyway, naysayers be damned. --Tom Lanham Guns N' Roses was, to its fans, the last word in rock bands. But when rhythm guitarist Izzy Stradlin quit the group at the height of its success in 1991, Guns didn't seem to matter quite so much anymore....

Porsche has achieved an international design reputation of his own, beginning first with the Porsche 911 and then moving onto myriad other products, such as this classy blender. Synthesizing form and function and utilizing advanced materials are Porsche's hallmarks, and they are immediately evident in this blender's timeless beauty. The double-tapered cylinder is clad in brushed aluminum, with dark-purple plastic trim. The rugged, dishwasher-safe polycarbonate container is translucent green, and its tall spout (calibrated in metric, up to 1.5 liters, or 51 ounces) protrudes slightly, adding a third external color. The blender is loaded with features. It has a powerful 450-watt motor controlled by a press-and-pop-out dial that fits flush to the exterior when not in use and offers pulse, automatic pulse, and variable-speed settings for precise blending. Stainless-steel blades are permanently attached to the container's bottom and are cleverly angled for fast ice crushing and fine chopping. Due to the upward and outward taper, the container has an exceptionally wide mouth. A pushbutton on the handle opens the lid, which, for safety, must be locked in place for the blender to operate. A locking cap twists out for adding ingredients during operation. Wraparound cord storage in the base reduces clutter. The blender stands 13 inches high on a 6-1/2-inch-diameter base and has rubber feet to protect counter surfaces. --Fred Brack Bosch MMB 9110 F.A.

Lavish, enigmatic, and faintly sinister, Robert Girardi's fourth book flaunts a Borges-like sensibility, faux folklore encompassing an enormous universe. Moving from the medieval Levant to post-apocalyptic California, its concern is the moment of choice, when characters are confounded by dilemma. In ""The Demons Tormenting Untersturmfhrer Hans Otto Graebner"" an SS officer dispatched to destroy allegedly subversive paintings finds himself first confronted with his own hypocrisy and then, literally, captured by art itself. ""The Primordial Face"" follows an obsessive Arabian's search for a legendary carving on the floor of the sea while his two divers succumb to the charms of his young daughter. ""Three Ravens on a Red Ground"" juxtaposes a Crusading knight devoted to a lost cause with a suburban executive troubled by an impending merger. ""The Dinner Party"" takes place at the end of the world, where martini-sipping gods icily dismiss their flame-ravaged creation. And in ""Arcana Mundi,"" an eerie, fairy-tale-like retelling of an ancient Greek story, a vintner allows two mysterious strangers to raise his young daughter. Rich in setting if slightly rigid in emotion, Girardi's stories are a strange brew of mystery and meaning. Decisiveness comes slowly to his protagonists, suggesting that, while existence demands resolve, the guideposts are few. Or, as one character explains, ""Without God, friend, the world is a vaudeville of devils."" --Ben Guterson ""Without God, friend, the world is a vaudeville of devils. An absurd carnival full of people fornicating to no purpose and shooting each other over a joke."" The speaker, an incidental character in one of the seven long stories in Girardi's (Madeline's Ghost) fine collection, illustrates the refulgent and violent vortex in which many of the protagonists operate. The men in these tales must often make all-important, sometimes split-second decisions, and make them alone, finding themselves in a moral vacuum. In ""The Demons Tormenting Untersturmf?hrer Hans Otto Graebner,"" an SS officer must choose between exterminating or sparing the ""subversive"" Belgian artist James Ensor, in whom he recognizes extraordinary gifts. Tom, a top executive of a semiconductor company in ""Three Ravens on a Red Ground,"" will either profit from inevitable takeover by a Japanese firm or stand by the hundreds of employees who will lose their jobs; in counterpoint runs the interpolated story of Tom's ancestor, a brave and virtuous knight pledged to a doomed but noble cause. Not all of the protagonists' choices are as ethically unambiguous. The post-apocalyptic father in ""Arcana Mundi"" regrets his decision to relinquish his clairvoyant young daughter to the tutelage of two disturbingly cerebral mystics, irreversibly severing his human bond with her. And in ""Dinner at Contessa Pasquali's,"" a man realizes the frightening degree to which his Neapolitan wife has manipulated him into marriage. Does his choice to remain with her reveal deeply sympathetic love or a surrender to fate? Touched with a near-maddening mysteriousness, and enriched by lavish historical, dystopic and dream-like settings, these vividly detailed tales give voice to specters of the dark side. Copyright 1999 Reed Business Information, Inc. In each of these short stories, the main character is confronted with a chance to ""do the right thing,"" whether it's being the holdout partner in a corporate takeover that would eliminate many jobs or the public defender going to bat for a Russian mob boss who's accused of murdering his girlfriend. Despite the fairly rigid form of these tales, novelist Girardi (Vaporetto 13, LJ 9/1/97) adds some interesting twists, and the two most creative stories take place in the future, with one man sacrificing the love of his daughter to save a dying town and another resisting the temptations of a powerful, otherworldly cadre and thereby saving the world from its evilAat least temporarily. Girardi accurately reflects the loneliness of being that one person who takes a stand, even with no reward to show for it: factories do close, and girlfriends are murdered every day. A good collection, with interesting characters and rich dialog.-AMarc A. Kloszewski, Indiana Free Lib., PA Copyright 1999 Reed Business Information, Inc. Robert Girardi is the only writer I know of who is working successfully in the neglected tradition of Guy de Maupassant, Isak Dinesen, and Edgar Allan Poe--with as protean an imagination and as dexterous a pen as any of theirs.You can read these seven moral tales for pure entertainment, then wait to see what else may linger.--Madison Smartt BellFrom the Hardcover edition. From the acclaimed author of Madeleine's Ghost and Vaporetto 13 comes a mesmerizing collection of seven novellas and stories that explore, through the lives of a variety of extraordinary and ordinary characters, our many moral quandaries.Meet Hans Otto Graebner as he lingers in the beach resort of Ostend, on the North Sea. Soon this haggard SS officer will be dispatched to perform the menial but necessary task of locating and assassinating a degenerate Belgian painter.Join ""The Dinner Party,"" where a man stands adrift in a distinctly Borgesian universe, somewhere at the end of time. It could be the Apocalypse or some ghoulish carnival. He's attending a feast at an anonymous mansion while the fall of Babylon is acted out around him, and he struggles to hold on to the faint remnants of his conscience while the world goes up in flames.Turn to a search for ""The Primordial Face,"" in which two expatriates, one of them mute, go diving for a mythological treasure at the bottom of the sea and wind up competing for the love of the obsessive expedition leader's young daughter.And spend ""Sunday Evenings at Contessa Pasquali's,"" where a man and a woman torture each other with indifference and affection and find that love can be born of terrible schemes. With this volume, Robert Girardi illustrates a world that is both beautifully alluring and brilliantly sinister, where souls are lost and won on the simple weight of everyday decisions. Rich with history and irony, vastly entertaining and told in the timeless style of tales, fables, and myths, these meditations on morality remind us of the eternal human condition.From the Hardcover edition.

The Demons Tormenting Untersturmfhrer Hans Otto GraebnerA gang of prisoners worked along the strand in the rain, filling bomb craters from last night's air raid with rubble, rebuilding the walls of sandbags around the gun emplacements. The long barrels of the antiaircraft guns glistened black against the wet sky. There is nothing more dismal than a beach resort in winter: the hotels closed, their awnings furled; the concessions that sell lemon water and fried potatoes shuttered; the quayside brasseries boarded up against the hope of better days, dust gathering on the hips of the bottles, on the tin countertops. Doubly dismal is a beach resort in the middle of winter in the middle of a war.At the far end of the pier the smashed casino still burned, soot darkening its white facade. A direct hit from the British Lancasters with incendiaries. I imagined the glossy rosewood and ivory roulette wheels reduced to ash, the teardrop chandeliers now melted chunks of blue glass in the charred remains of the interior and patted my pockets for a cigarette. The pack was empty. I'd smoked my last on the train down from Brussels. I approached one of the soldiers detailed to guard the work gang. He looked cold and bored; there would be no problem from that starving bunch today. When he saw the twin silver lightning bolts on the collar of my coat, he drew himself up and saluted smartly.What's your name, Private? I gave him a hard, appraising look.Wurmler, sir! he called out.Do you have a cigarette, Private Wurmler?Yes, sir! He fumbled in his pocket, produced a flat box of flimsy cardboard, and held it out to me.Relax, Wurmler, I said. Why don't you have one yourself?He seemed surprised; then he unshouldered his rifle and rested it against the balustrade. The cigarettes were army issue, made from cheap Turkish tobacco captured during the invasion of Crete. We stood in silence for a moment, taking the harsh smoke into our lungs. I stared out at the gray water, the horizon lost in fog. A crazy scrawl of barbed wire straggled up the beach. A few abandoned changing cabins remained down there, half sunk in sand, now used to store wire spools and mining equipment. I tried to ignore the sharp pain in my knee. This dampness was not good for mending bones.What's it like here, Wurmler? I said at last.He looked puzzled. You mean in Ostend, sir?Yes, in Ostend.You know, it's not Berlin, sir.You're right, I said, attempting a smile. It's not even Brussels.He laughed at this, and I imagined him talking to his comrades later: Those fellows in the SS, they're not so bad. One of them even cracked a joke yesterday! A memorandum had come through headquarters last month regarding fraternization with soldiers of the regular army, which was to be encouraged whenever possible. We must dispel the counterproductive aura of snobbishness that has surrounded the corps and encourage the dissemination of National Socialist ideals was how Reichsmarschall Himmler had explained matters. I had my own reasons.Tell me, Wurmler, I said, leaning close. How are the women in this town?Wurmler looked suspicious; he'd heard too many stories. I'm a married man, sir, he said.Don't worry, I said. We're not all saints in the SS, you know.He hesitated, weighing the consequences. There's a place where the men go. He lowered his voice. Enlisted only, definitely not for officers. The whores are very ugly, skin and bones. Hell, officers need clean sheets and a little polite conversation before they drop their trousers, right? He grinned. Now it was his turn to joke. I ignored the comment. A wet gust of wind blew off the water; two gulls fought for a scrap of something dead in the surf.Damn melancholy this time of year, I said, shivering. I suppose things might get a little cheerier in July, August. The height of the season in the old days, yes?Maybe, but you wouldn't be able to bathe in the water. Wurmler pointed out the wire on the beach. We've got the whole place mined. In case the enemy decides to try something.I nodded and tossed the bitter end of my cigarette to the shrapnel-chipped pavement and rubbed it out with the heel of my boot. Good luck, Private Wurmler, I said. Carry on.He drew himself up again and saluted. Heil Hitler! he said with a little too much enthusiasm.Yes, Heil Hitler, I said, and limped off toward the row of forlorn beach hotels huddled beneath the rain in the distance.A sandbag barrier ten meters high scaled the front of the famous Htel Continental des Bains. Fortified sentry posts flanked the front steps up which porters in livery had once carried the monogrammed luggage of the aristocracy. I remembered seeing a photograph of the Belgian king Leopold posed on those same steps, smiling with his family on a sunny day before the war. The hotel was now command headquarters for the military district of Ostend-Brugge. Staff officers of the Wehrmacht strode about the peach and red velvet lobby with papers in their hands, trying to look important.Behind the front desk, a magnificent monstrosity of carved mermaids and seashells, they had set up a communications station. I handed my orders to a beefy, red-faced technical sergeant who seemed stuffed into his uniform like a sausage into its casing.I'm here to see Generaloberst von Falkenhausen, I said.The technical sergeant unfolded my orders with thick fingers, frowned at the embossed seals stamped into the heavy paper, handed them back to me.You'll have to wait, sir, he said curtly. The general is busy with military matters until late this afternoon.I struggled to keep my temper. The hostility of von Falkenhausen and his staff to the political aims of the SS was well known in Berlin. The general was not a conscientious Nazi, but he was an excellent soldier, and the Fhrer still had a lingering respect for members of the old Prussian warrior caste. Of course, when the war was won and the Reich no longer needed such men, von Falkenhausen would have to watch his backside.I waited for hours in an empty room attached to von Falkenhausen's suite on the sixth floor. A large dark patch on the faded peach carpet showed where the bed had been, smaller patches for the night tables. The only furnishings now were a single chair and a pile of old magazines. I sat in the chair for a while with a copy of Totenkampf and half read a cheery piece of propaganda about Feldmarschall Rommel's victories in Africa, then stood at the window and watched the light change over the water and tried to put a name to the uneasy feeling turning in my gut.Political work didn't suit me: too many fine ideological distinctions, too much waiting. Waiting made my hands shake, my mouth go dry. Waiting gave me time to think about the Jewish painter Nussbaum, whom we'd arrested in Brussels two months ago in the garret where he'd been hiding. Another Jew had given up Nussbaum's hiding place for money. That was the one thing I'd learned since my reassignment to the Polizeidivision: There was always someone willing to sell someone else's skin for money.Nussbaum, wearing only his socks and underwear, was eating sardines out of a tin with a palette knife when we kicked the door down. On the easel behind him, a large, unfinished canvas, a self-portrait showing the painter draped in a gray coat pinned with the yellow star, holding an identity card up to the viewer. A look of terror shone in his eyes in the self-portrait, as if he knew any minute someone was coming to haul him off for interrogation. Nice use of color, nice composition, a certain deft facility with the brush--and quite prophetic. But before I could get a better look, Sturmscharfhrer Stodal slashed the canvas lengthwise with a sharp dagger carried around just for that purpose, and Lemke and Groschen set about slashing everything else.There must have been two hundred paintings stuffed into that garret, over a thousand drawings and prints, a lifetime's work. Nussbaum didn't move a muscle; no one laid a hand on him. It wasn't necessary; those paintings were the only reason he'd ever taken a breath upon the earth. He sat quietly, watching us destroy his life picture by picture. After a while big childish tears began to stream down his face, dropping to bead on the surface of the oil in the tin of sardines.Later that night, as the last tattered bits of Nussbaum's work were fed to the blaze in the street, I'd gone with a whore, a fat streetwalker waddling around the serpentine paths in the Parc Royal. She was surprised that an officer of the SS wanted a tumble with her when he could easily have any woman in the city, but I gave her enough money not to think about the situation. We went to a dirty little hotel in the Rue d'Aix. It wasn't a very pleasant experience. I'd gone with a lot of whores lately. I couldn't say why.Generaloberst Alexander von Falkenhausen's dachshund sat up on its hind legs on the Turkish carpet, begging for scraps from the remains of the general's lunch as I came through the double doors into his office. Another dachshund lay asleep, nose on its paws atop the general's vast mahogany Empire-style desk. The general himself squatted on the floor, a nice-looking pork cutlet dripping grease from his fingertips.I clicked the heels of my boots together in the best Prussian style and saluted. Untersturmfhrer Graebner reporting, Herr General!General von Falkenhausen grunted but did not look up. I stood at attention for some minutes while the dog gnawed at the pork and licked the general's fingers.

If you believe there is no solution to the race problem, I urge you to reconsider and to learn from someone who is on the frontlines of making multicultural ministry a reality in the church today.' -- Bill Hybels br>br> David Anderson writes about multicultural leadership not from the perspective of an ivory tower intellectual, but as a hands-on practitioner who loves and believes in the body of Christ. . . . If you believe there is no solution to the race problem, I urge you to reconsider and to learn from someone who is on the frontlines of making multicultural ministry a reality in the church today. Bill Hybels, founding and senior pastor, Willow Creek Community Church Multiculturalism isnt a trend, its a reality. Evidence of this countrys rich racial mix is all around us in our schools, our stores, our neighborhoods, our recreational facilitieseverywhere except our churches. Heaven may include every culture, tongue, and tribe, but in the United States, Sunday morning remains one of the last bastions of ethnic separatism. Its time to stop merely talking about multicultural worship and start living it. In this groundbreaking book, David Anderson invites us allAfrican-American, Asian, Caucasian, and Latinoto learn how to dance the dance of multicultural ministry. Weve all got different moves, but thats the beauty of diversity: the various gifts we bring, the wisdom of our heritages, the different creative ways we express the same Lord. Think it cant be done? Think again. As Anderson demonstrates, it is being done successfully by more and more churches. Wherever your church is now on the multicultural continuum, you can join the ranks of those moving toward a diverse and thriving ministry. Combining frontline insights with inspiring stories, Anderson takes you and your church into the strategy-level realities of what it takes to make multicultural ministry work in your setting. Do you hear the beat of the Spirit? God is calling your church to the dance of unity in diversity. Dont hold back! Grab this book, get out on the dance floor, and let Multicultural Ministry show you the steps. Includes a Racial Reconciliation survey and six-session Racial Reconciliation curriculum. David Anderson is the founder and senior pastor of Bridgeway Community Church, a multicultural congregation located in Columbia, Maryland. He is the founder and president of the BridgeLeader Network, a multicultural leadership consulting organization, and an instructor of cultural diversity at the University of Phoenix, Maryland campuses. With a PhD in the sociological integration of religion and society from Oxford Graduate School, Dr. Anderson hosts the radio show Reconciliation Live in the nation's capital. He is coauthor of Across the Divide and author of Multicultural Ministry, and is a sought-after international conference speaker, lecturer, and consultant. He and his wife, Amber, reside in Ellicott City, Maryland, with their three young children. chapter one THE BOOKENDS Or 'House on a Cul-de-sac' THE HOUSE WAS LARGE, THE YARD WAS BIG, AND THE majestic pine trees that lined the back yard reached toward the sky with a sense of grandeur. My father was so proud as he drove us through the beautiful suburban neighborhood in Adelphi, Maryland.We children sat in the back seat peering out the car windows, making sounds like ooh and ah. Dad explained that the neighborhood we were driving through was going to be ours. The split-level house on Rambler Place that he and Mom had purchased would be our new home. Feeling both pride and disbelief, my mouth open and my eyes as big as saucers, I nervously waited for the 'just kidding' punch line. It was hard to imagine that we could live in such a nice home, in such a quiet neighborhood, on a street that ended in a word I had never heard of before---cul-de-sac. Like the Jeffersons in the barrier-breaking television show from the late 1970s, we were indeed 'movin' on up to the east side.' I was ten. Shortly after the big move, we received a shocking 'welcome.' One morning I rolled out of bed, headed to the kitchen, looked out the window, and spotted police cars in our driveway.'What's the matter?' I hollered. My mother informed me that someone had placed a large cross in our front yard. She also said someone had driven a car across our lawn, leaving skid marks on our green grass and mowing over our delicate Dogwood tree. I was confused. I could not understand why anyone would drive across our lawn. But the cross was a good thing, right? As the son of a Baptist preacher growing up in a good Christian family, I knew the cross represented hope and promise. However, while Dad was still out with the police, Mom explained to me that this cross was not a sign of hope but a symbol of terror. It was an act of hatred and a federal offense.We were unwanted in this neighborhood. I felt sad. I felt scared. Within a couple of days, the phone rang very early in the morning. Because the phone was on my mother's side of the bed, she picked up the receiver only to hear a long period of silence before the caller hung up. There were other calls. One morning a muffled voice strongly suggested that we should move out of the neighborhood before it was too late. Later I asked if we were going to move. Mom stated in no uncertain terms that God blessed us with this home and we were not moving. Although I admired my parents' strength and courage, I cannot say that I was as certain as they were about sticking around. Someone was turning the neighborhood of our dreams into a nightmare. I felt mad. I felt nervous. I believe it's correct to say that many whites in America were not raised to compensate for their whiteness as a liability. They may have been taught that they can grow up to be whatever they wanted to be. So was I. However, I had additional lessons to learn. My early experiences taught me at a young age that being black in America was a liability, not an asset. The determination of my parents to beat the odds was a value that I caught. I admired them then and still do to this day! One of my lessons was that though I could be anything I wanted to be, I would have to work harder and be smarter than my nonblack counterparts. I was taught that the resistance to my success as a minority in a majority culture was a reality that I would have to overcome. THE PRINCIPLE OF BOOKENDS Bill Brogan was a white boy who lived on the other side of the neighborhood. Billy and I became good friends as we rode bikes and played sports together. Our interracial friendship was never much of an issue. Billy did not seem to mind that I was black. I didn't mind his being white.We just treated each other like buddies. I appreciated our friendship. It wasn't until junior high school that we separated along the lines of race.We didn't mean to, but it seemed natural. There were Asians and Latinos at our school, but they were few in number.There were more blacks and whites, and the racial divide between them was wide. Billy and I would see each other on the bus, but by then we were quite segregated. We lost touch. Worse, negative racial talk among the groups seemed to escalate. Blacks would talk about honkies or crackers, and whites would talk about niggers or spooks. I remember chinks and spics were terms used of Asians and Latinos. I do not have many pleasant memories of junior high school. Blacks and whites were at opposite ends of the spectrum. I call them the bookends. In the school library we were taught how books are categorized. In my office today I have a number of books on my shelves.Whether in the school library or in my church office, the principle of bookends holds true, namely, that at the beginning and end of each row of books are two books between which all the others lean. No book can stand alone. All of the books rely on each other in order to stand straight in a row. The books on the ends provide the necessary tension to keep upright the books in the middle. Likewise, in North America tension exists between blacks and whites. I consider blacks and whites as the bookends of the racial debate in America. Consider the middle books as the other races and ethnic groups in North American culture. If the books on the ends move closer, all of the books will come together. But the middle books also matter. Although Asians, Latinos, and other groups have their own set of ethnic issues, they have an important contribution to make, much like a middle child who is caught between battling siblings. Sometimes the best thing a middle child can do is to stay out of the fight. At other times the presence and peacemaking of the middle child can bring healing. Latinos are a large presence on the American bookshelf of knowledge. Koreans, Chinese, Native Americans, and Arabs, to name a few, also are a presence. All of the middle books can inform our great country on how to appreciate its multicultural richness. I firmly believe that the entire shelf of books has knowledge and perspectives to offer the attentive reader. Exposure to the various books on the shelf, or cultures on the street, can add value to one's life experience. Such exposure can come by what I call proactive intent or reactive demand. For example, I have hundreds of books in my library, many of which I have never fully read. However, when a crisis arises, I scour my shelves to search for as much knowledge in that subject as I can. Demand makes me become quite intentional. But notice that the driving force is reactive and not proactive. As neighborhoods, corporate institutions, and churches begin to deal with the changing demographics of our culture, wise learners are beginning to proactively investigate the multicultural resources within their reach. But regardless of whether we go to our shelves motivated by crisis or by Christ, we'll find them overflowing with information and perspectives that can help us move the bookends toward each other for the glory of God. If only more churches would reach out to the various cultures around them with the wonderful news of Christ. Christian community can be found with each book on the shelf. The problem, as I see it now, is that there is 'white book Christianity' at one end and 'black book Christianity' on the other. Then you have Latino Christianity, Korean Christianity, and even Jewish Christianity somewhere in the middle. Can you imagine if the books were bound into one massive almanac of rich knowledge and multicultural expression? Although there would still be many volumes throughout the world, they would continually point to the same author and finisher of our faith, the Lord Jesus. What would it be like if churches around the world were known as places of such great love that the boundaries of culture, class, and color were shattered?

International Journal of Epidemiology --This text refers to the Paperback edition. Charting the relentless trajectory of humankind across time and geography, Tony McMichael highlights the changing survival patterns of our ancient ancestors, who roamed the African savannahs several million years ago, to today's populous, industrialized, and globalized world. McMichael explores the changes in human biology, culture, and surrounding environments that have influenced patterns of health and disease over the course of humankind's history, arguing that the health of populations is primarily a product of the interaction of human societies with the wider environment, its various ecosystems, and other life-support processes. Tony McMichael is professor of epidemiology, London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine. He has held positions in Australia, USA, and UK, and has taught widely in Asia, Africa, and Europe. He has advised WHO, UNEP, the World Bank and Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change on public health issues.

Most of the 12 stories in Italian writer Dacia Maraini's chilling collection Darkness involve the betrayal of children by the adults charged with caring for them. Alicetta, a schizophrenic girl, is given baths late at night by a hospital orderly armed with sedatives; Tano, a tough 11-year-old, denounces his father for rape many times, but no one believes him. In spare, luminous prose, Maraini evokes the wary innocence of abused children and the perversity, confusion or stupidity of their parents and guardians. Linking most of the stories is Insp. Adele Sofia, who sucks on licorice drops as she ponders her cases. This is a moving, gracefully written collection.Copyright 2002 Reed Business Information, Inc. *Starred Review* In a dozen short stories inspired by crime coverage in Italian newspapers, Maraini drives home two crucial points about child rape and murder. The first is that neglectful and corrupt parents deserve a great deal of blame in most child-abuse and abduction cases. The second is that Western nations--and the officials who serve as their instruments of justice--are too often willing to ignore pleas for help from young victims. As terrible as the fates that befall the children in Darkness--an 11-year-old girl is sold into prostitution; an 11-year-old boy files several police reports in a vain attempt to stop his father from raping him and his siblings--the true horror for the reader comes from comprehending how complicit society is in these acts. It's far easier, it seems, to ignore the possibility that orderlies are repeatedly violating an institutionalized little girl than it is to acknowledge that such evils take place every day. In these stark tales, Maraini illuminates truths about the issue that television ignores in its missing-kid-of-the-week coverage. As Adele Sofia, the police inspector who figures in many of the stories, comes to understand, ""Children should always be believed before adults.""

Her friends eventually realize that she has been taken away by an unusual young man who calls himself Orphan Jude. It turns out that Jude needed to find another orphan like himself in order to use a magical tent, the creation of a 1930s cult leader, to transport himself to another world. When Del's friends finally find the tent, two of them travel to that world to bring her back. The premise is interesting, but it takes a while for any real excitement to develop. The author lets suspense build slowly, spending time introducing the personalities of the characters. The light romantic elements are fairly dull and predictable, detracting from the more interesting search for Del. A powerful psychic named Dead Mary makes occasional appearances to help the young people, adding to the offbeat tone of the novel. Though this book is an intriguing blend of science fiction and mystery, the attempts at humor and character development are not successful enough to make it especially compelling.?Steven Engelfried, West Linn Public Library, ORCopyright 1996 Reed Business Information, Inc. De Haven (for adults, Derby Dugan's Depression Funnies, p. 549, etc.) makes a quirky gang of New Jersey rock and rollers the unlikely heroes of this hilarious adventure. Ike, community college drop-out turned independent recording producer, isn't a typical YA protagonist, but this twentysomething hard-luck case has traits to endear him to readers: a pessimistic outlook, protective cynicism, and, underneath it all, a desperate sense of isolation. Ike and his sister, Alice, who owns the local record store, meet Del, a pretty drifter bursting with raw talent as a rock singer. Ike's plans for promoting Del abruptly end when she disappears right before a gig; Ike and Alice team up with pals Fletch and Bo to find the missing songbird. Some arguing and amateur sleuthing lead the quartet to the charismatic and sinister Jude Hayser; although he claims to have known Del only briefly, he is connected with the bizarre disappearance of a group of orphans back in the 1930s. Of course, Hayser knows that the orphans were teleported to another world, where he now plans to send Del and himself. The ensuing battle leaps from this world to the next in a burst of excitement, wise-cracking dialogue, and bonhomie. Bing's few black-and-white illustrations add a sense of menace to the story, an incredible and entertaining adventure that never falters in its realistic portrayal of young people, with all their flaws and strengths in focus.

Ernest then tries standing on the ramp to the stable and stretching his neck way up high, but he doesn't fool Travis the horse either. Travis, however, notices that something is wrong and asks why Ernest is upset. When the donkey tells him that he is tired of being so tiny, Travis replies, ""Well yes, I guess you are smaller.-I never noticed before."" When questioned, the cows agree that they never noticed it before either. The animals relay the age-old message-""Size doesn't matter. It's who you are that matters,"" and Ernest realizes that he is special. Camburn's pale pen-and-ink illustrations assign plenty of personality to the barnyard animals. Both the story and the illustrations have a light, airy feel to them. Children will enjoy reading and listening to this book.-Lisa Gangemi Krapp, Middle Country Public Library, Centereach, NYCopyright 2001 Cahners Business Information, Inc. Ages 3-5. Ernest is a miniature donkey. He's smaller than the other donkeys and the cow, and he's certainly smaller than the horse. Upset about his size, he tries different things to look taller, but the other animals don't notice his machinations--and for good reason. As they finally tell him, they never noticed he was small, because, ""Who you are comes from the inside."" In some ways, this may not be very helpful to kids, especially if they've been teased about their size. Still, the message-heavy story does have reassuring elements to which some children may respond. The ink-and-watercolor illustrations are simple and sweet, especially the pictures of Ernest, who looks like a huggable stuffed animal. For larger collections.

She's sold one of her gold claims to her good friend, Cougar Barnes, and bought a little house in Prescott, Arizona. Unfortunately, her grandfather in Chicago informs her that the claim was not hers to sell and insists that she come to Chicago to settle the matter. He plans for her to marry a good friend's son to cement their pending business merger, which is plenty upsetting because Georgie happens to be one of the most ornery, cussing, dead-eye shots in Arizona Territory. When she finds out that her grandfather intends to turn her into a proper lady, only the thought of making things right with Cougar induces her to agree. What follows is a thoroughly enjoyable read as Georgie attempts to fit into society and juggle one man who thinks she's a ""graceless Amazon"" with another who thinks she's one of the boys. Both fall under Georgie's spell, as will Carmichael's happy readers. Maria HattonCopyright American Library Association.

Recorded once again with his same Silvertone band and producer Erik Jacobsen, this is another Isaak collection of brooding songs about unslaked lust and half-completed break-ups; his restrained but lush voice is still out in front of the heavily echoed popabilly guitars. Nonetheless there are subtle differences in this project that make it more varied, more open, more aggressive and better overall than its predecessors. For example, Lonely with a Broken Heart sounds like the ultimate Isaak title, but the song is delivered at a brisk swing tempo, pushed by the soulful B-3 organ of the Robert Cray Band's Jimmy Pugh, and Isaak's carefree vocal makes it clear that the song is meant as a sarcastic taunt to a lover who expects him to come crawling back. A similar twist informs Except the New Girl, which is lit up by lovely steel guitar lines from Tom Brumley (ex-Buck Owens); Isaak confesses to a woman that there's never been anyone else..., but then adds the kicker, except the new girl. Round & Round features some dirty guitar and a chugging beat, while the album closes with the best song Neil Diamond ever wrote, Solitary Man, which sounds more lonely and desperate in this minimalist arrangement than it ever did before. Isaak's trump card, as always, is his singing. Like his heroes Roy Orbison and Don Everly, Isaak sings as if it were always 3 a.m., when every other gambit has failed and there are no options left but complete honesty. He pulls so tightly on the reins to his voice that he usually sings in a husky whisper, which is no less lush for being held back. And when he loosens the reins and allows his handsome tenor to rise in power, as it does on the incandescent falsetto chorus to the first single, Can't Do a Thing (To Stop Me), the effect is thrilling. --Jeffrey Himes 12 tracks including Solitary Man.

Hailing from Auburn, New York, IF HOPE DIES showed upstate New York that you can mix metal with hardcore. Since then, IF HOPE DIES has progressed into a leader of the genre of metal based hardcore. A 2002 release on Diehard Records entitled ""Siege Equipment for Spiritual Decline"" has sold over 1200 copies to date with only regional touring. The release solidified the band as a metalcore force to be reckoned with. Priding themselves on having an energetic and heartfelt connection with their audience, IF HOPE DIES has proven their metal by their tireless commitment to touring. Having shared the stage with metal heavy weights LAMB OF GOD, IN FLAMES and SOILWORK, among others, IF HOPE DIES has consistently held their own and build an exceptionally solid touring base in the U.S. ""The Ground is Rushing Up Top Meet Us"" is the best and latest release for If Hope Dies and will blow away any fan of traditional Heavy Metal, European Metal, American Metal, Thrash Metal and Metal based Hardcore. With a new label, Ironclad recordings, and a new commitment to tour full time, IF HOPE DIES is stronger than ever and will be coming to your hometown soon to show you who the ""Kings of modern day Metal"" really are.

Gunther Weil is an underachieving lunar laborer, content in his routine job and the occasional petty expression of insubordination. But when an unexpected solar flare catches him exposed on the moon's surface and his ingenuity alone saves him from death, Gunther becomes a sort of celebrity. Later, when a limited nuclear war breaks out on earth, Gunther finds himself in an even more prominent position. A terrorist has released an engineered virus into the moonbase, rendering all those within it insane, and Gunther is one of the few lucky enough to have been outside at the time. As the sane survivors use and sometimes abuse the highly suggestible insane, Gunther and a few others search for a cure. But will that cure return the sufferers to themselves or leave them irrevocably changed? Swanwick weaves the story with characteristic verve and style, and though his exploration of the issues raised by the psychological viruses falls short of its potential, this is an entertaining and provocative novella. Copyright 1991 Reed Business Information, Inc. All-too-brief medium-future yarn centering on war and brain chemistry, from the author of the fine Stations of the Tide (1990), etc. Gunther Weil is just an ordinary lunar engineer, until a nuclear exchange on Earth spreads conflict to the Moon. The sublunar factory town of Bootstrap is cut off, its inhabitants rendered psychotic through brain chemicals released into the air by a saboteur; only those wearing space suits escape. Gunther's lover, Ekatarina, organizes the survivors along traditional lines, to growing resentment, until Gunther discovers that a range of new brain chemicals has been developed: Not only can the psychotics be cured, but stable personalities can be amended and improved on as a form of mental evolution. Ekatarina resists, and Gunther is forced to shoot her. Absorbing and realistic, packed with provocative ideas that deserve a more thoroughgoing workout than they get here. -- Copyright 1991, Kirkus Associates, LP.

In the late '60s and early '70s, filmmaker Peter Bogdanovich had conducted extensive interviews with Welles, but a number of circumstances--including the director's decision to compose an autobiography that he never got around to writing--kept the interviews out of the public eye. Edited and annotated by Jonathan Rosenbaum, these conversations give wonderful insights into Welles's craft and personality. He discusses his forays into acting, producing, and writing as well as directing, his confidences and insecurities, and his plans for film projects that were either never made or only partially completed. He also offers insights into the triumph of Citizen Kane and later masterpieces like The Lady from Shanghai, Touch of Evil, Othello, and Chimes at Midnight. His defense of his controversial adaptation of Kafka's The Trial is so fascinating that readers might want to rush out and rent the film. While the book is worth owning just for this 322-page interview, it is also full of other material that is equally revealing. Rosenbaum presents a meticulous chronology of Welles's life, closely following his day-to-day activities from his birth in 1915 to his death in 1985. Anyone who thinks that Welles was an essentially lazy and profligate artist will be astonished at how hard he worked and how much he accomplished, even after the completion of Citizen Kane. Another treat found in the book is a detailed description--complete with rare photographic stills--of the original Magnificent Ambersons, Welles's impressive follow-up to Kane, which can now be seen only in a tragically truncated version. This 1998 reissue of the volume contains a fond new introduction by Bogdanovich and another crucial piece of Welles minutia, excerpts from his 58-page memo to Universal Pictures about the editing of Touch of Evil. Forty years after its composition, the material in this memo has been used to create a restored director's cut of the film. With such grand material between two covers, This Is Orson Welles is the most informative and entertaining book available on one of the 20th century's greatest artists. --Raphael Shargel --This text refers to the Paperback edition. This title is a potpourri of material by and about Welles (1915-1985), who wrote, directed and starred in the classic Citizen Kane , played a masterful Harry Lime in The Third Man and wrote, directed and acted in other films that have garnered a devoted if relatively small following. The bulk of the book consists of a series of interviews conducted by director/author Bogdanovich with Welles (interspersed with letters, memos and telegrams), as well as a chronology of Welles's life and career, a description of the scenes and dialogue cut by studio bosses from Welles's The Magnificent Ambersons and notes by film critic Jonathan Rosenbaum (which often correct Welles's entertaining but sometimes inaccurate stories). Welles and Bogdanovich's conversation develops interestingly--like the conversation in Louis Malle's My Dinner with Andre --and is sprinkled with discussions of Welles's radio career, movies and observations on film and other directors. For example, about Alfred Hitchcock, Welles says: ""There's a certain icy calculation in a lot of Hitch's work that puts me off. He says he doesn't like actors, and sometimes it looks as though he doesn't like people ."" Photos . Copyright 1992 Reed Business Information, Inc. This is the transcript of interviews with Welles that filmmaker Bogdanovich conducted over a ten-year period. Throughout, Welles reminisces about his remarkable career. But along with his memories of the entertainment world, he offers his thoughts on everything from writers and literature to comic strips, bullfighting, and gangsters. The book also contains over 500 black-and-white photos, a year-by-year chronology of Welles's life, and a lengthy excerpt from the original script of The Magnificent Ambersons that was deleted from the film. With his revolutionary work in radio and film, Welles proved himself to be one of the greatest creative and visionary talents of his time, but these conversations also reveal him to be a true Renaissance man. Bogdanovich and editor Rosenbaum have done a great service by making this material available after years in storage. It was worth the wait. Absolutely essential for all film collections, and biography collections should strongly consider.- Michael Rogers, ""Library Journal""Copyright 1992 Reed Business Information, Inc. Peter Bogdanovich is the award-winning director of The Last Picture Show, Paper Moon, What's Up Doc?, Mask, and others; he is also the author of John Ford, Pieces of Time, The Killing of the Unicorn, and Who the Devil Made It. He lives in New York City. Jonathan Rosenbaum is the co-author of Midnight Movies, author of Moving Places, Placing Movies, and Movies as Politics; and film critic for the Chicago Reader. --This text refers to the Paperback edition. Culled from twenty hours of conversations spanning ten years, this audiobook presents Welles's passionate reminiscences about his life and career. Prodded by Peter Bogdonovich's sensitive questioning, Welles goes well beyond details of his oeuvre or intimate particulars of his acquaintances. These conversations were recorded under austere, almost primitive circumstances. The din of distant filmmaking activity often competes with the spoken word, and someone might have suggested to Welles that he forgo his beloved cigars which at times interfere with his audibility. Despite these technical faults, any aficionado should be delighted by the portrait Welles draws of himself. R.W.B.

These three musicians have worked together in various configurations since they were 16 year old students in the 70's and formed R.M.I. in 1993. Their second Cuneiform release (and the band's 27th overall) is something quite different from the band's previous work. Best known for electronic space music for keyboards, electronics and guitars, here Radio Massacre have expanded greatly upon their usual sound and also use conventional rock instrumentation, adding bass and drums, to create a sincere and moving tribute to Syd Barrett, and in doing so, manage to capture some of the psychedelic magic of 1967-1968. This album features a really striking cover by Daevid Allen, which is also a hommage to Syd.Radio Massacre International Explains:This album is our way of saying goodbye and thanks to a genuine one-off. His passing had an unexpectedly profound effect, despite the fact that he hadn't been near a guitar in more than 30 years. It forced us to consider what an enormous influence he was, despite his space-ageascendancy and equally rapid burnout. He picked up a zippo lighter, invented glissando guitar and incorporated non-musical sounds into the context of the new psychedelic movement that had hardly had time to leave the conformity of Rhythm & Blues behind. His creation was a particularly English take on what we now call 'rock'...and for those of us engaged in experimental or space rock, the debt is enormous.",alternative rock;dance & electronic;music;pop;rock,5 B00003Z9UK,"Cape Verde: An Archipelago of Music / Cap-Vert: Un Archipel De Musiques Cape Verde has attained a fame far beyond what its small geographic stature would seem to justify, in great measure due to the work of morna diva Cesaria Evora. This small group of islands was uninhabited until Portugal settled it with its unwanted poor, its opportunistic pirates, clever business people, and slaves brought from the nearby African coast. Thus the archipelago has a unique, almost artificial culture. It's a true example of how people create culture as much as they are created by it. This two-CD set is broken into two regional collections. Sotavento (""leeward"") covers the islands of Fogo, Santiago, Maio, and Brava, where the majority of blacks still live. It features social satire called tabanka, women's social music (batuque), the accordion-driven funana, and work and play songs. Barlavento (""windward"") shows the more diverse European elements (not exclusively Portuguese) that mixed with the African to create the roots of the most famous of Cape Verde's musical traditions, the morna of Boa Vista island. Also featured are wedding and festival music, and more formal styles that work with European instruments such as the violin. Much of this music has been covered in individual discs on the Ocora label, but this collection is one of the best overviews of the region available, with good notes, marvelous pictures, and well-recorded, outstanding performances. --Louis Gibson",miscellaneous;music;pop;rock;world music,5 B00005NGRF,"GE 29393GE1 Corded Call-Waiting Caller ID Speakerphone GE's 29393 is sensibly designed in a classical corded form.

Despite a plethora of new translations in the second half of the twentieth century, the King James Version retains its power and appeal because ""it has the intrinsic value of a classic and is an enduring masterpiece.""Drury outlines the fascinating history of this magisterial translation, marveling at the ""patient generosity"" with which the translators sifted through and distilled a century of previous scholarship. He points out that their work has endured not only because of the astonishing care they took to reflect faithfully the syntax of the original Hebrew and Greek--which enabled them to dispense with the densely entangled prose style that characterized English writing at the time--but also because of their concern to writers from Milton to Coleridge to George Eliot. From the doctrinal richness of the letters of St. Paul to those four masterpieces of storytelling, the Gospels, the New Testament has served as a source of inspiration for centuries. To quote George Steiner on the centrality of the Bible: ""What you have in hand is not a book. It is the book. That, of course, is what 'Bible' means. It is the book which, not only in Western humanity, defines the concept of a text. All our other books, however different in matter or method, relate, be it indirectly, to this book of books . . .

The crossover appeal of contemporary country music has created an avalanche of new female fans, and it's these women-or ""girls"" as the author insists on calling them-who will most enjoy this fun, frivolous primer to the artists, fashions and trends surrounding the music. Adelman, creator of the GirlsGuidetoCountry.com Web site, notes that her book is for fans more concerned about what the Dixie Chicks wear to an awards show than about how many honors they win. The author-whose previous book was The Girls' Guide to Elvis-understands such fans' interests and respects their intelligence; she also has considerable knowledge about her subject (each chapter, for example, ends with album recommendations). There is plenty of worshiping of sexy stars like Alan Jackson and Tim McGraw in these pages, but the guide's most original sections offer suggestions for women seeking to bring the honky-tonk experience into their own lives. A Nashville bartender serves up drink recipes (including the Redheaded Slut and Buttery Nipple), for example, and an image consultant who helped the Dixie Chicks extends fashion advice. The author herself recommends ""Ten Great Girl Songs with Attitude"" for the karaoke barfly. Though a couple of chapters, like ""Record Shopping with Pam Tillis,"" seem hastily thrown together, Adelman's passion for country music and her sassy attitude should win over most of her readers..Copyright 2003 Reed Business Information, Inc.

Chapter 1Welcome to the Country ClubPerhaps it began when you heard Faith Hill on the adult contemporary radio station they play at work. After humming along to her infectious Breathe, you decide to pick up her album next time you're at Target. Listening to the CD, you find your favorite song is her Let's Make Love duet with husband Tim McGraw. The next day you're home watching TV. Flipping through channels you catch a glimpse of the dynamic duo performing that very song in an extremely glamorous video shot in Paris. Who knew your satellite system carried CMT!You find yourself watching CMT every time there's nothing good on regular TV. Who's Phil Vassar? You don't know, but you like his video for American Child, where he cavorts in wheat fields with his real-life little girl. Next time you're in Target, you buy his CD. You also snag a Jo Dee Messina album because not only do you enjoy the redhead's spunky videos, you've noted that Phil Vassar's penned her hits I'm Alright and Bye Bye. Even more incentive: Tim McGraw coproduced Jo Dee's record.Your car radio becomes permanently tuned into the country station, where they play Faith, Tim, Phil, Jo Dee, and all the CMT regulars. You hear on the radio that Phil Vassar and newcomer Carolyn Dawn Johnson will be opening for Kenny Chesney when he plays the local amphitheater. You buy tickets. At the concert, you're envious when the fan in the seat next to you mentions that the last time she saw Kenny Chesney, he was opening for Tim McGraw. She also tells you to join Phil Vassar's fan club so next time you can participate in the backstage meet-and-greet before the concert.As you write the check to join Phil Vassar's fan club, you realize there's no going back. You've gone country for good.A Grand AdventureThere's never been a better time to be a country fan. Not only are there scads of exciting artists making music right now, but there are over eight decades of back catalog to explore. Just as Phil Vassar might have been your introduction to Jo Dee Mes-sina, you'll find one artist will lead you to another. As you follow these trails, you'll delight in one discovery after another. And while it's possible to have never heard George Jones or Tammy Wynette and still consider yourself a country fan, sooner or later you'll be exposed to something that will lead you to them, or further back, to singing cowboy Roy Rogers, or even further back, to the singing brakeman, Jimmie Rodgers.Don't worry, we won't bore you with a time line tracing how the mountain string band sound transformed and mutated into cowboy music, Western swing, bluegrass, honky-tonk, rockabilly, the Nashville sound, new traditionalism, alt-country, and twang-lite crossover. We know new converts don't encounter music in chronological order. You start somewhere and follow where your interest leads. Perhaps your enjoyment of country doesn't go as far back as the George Jones and Tammy Wynette duets right now, but in a few years it might. Then you'll be blown away by the many amazing songs waiting to be experienced.Everyone Is WelcomePerhaps because it's always been the music that chronicles the life of ordinary folks, you'll discover that your fellow country fans range from presidents to barflies, octogenarians to toddlers. Singer/songwriter Pam Tillis explains, Country music is for everybody. It's not exclusive. Sort of like blue jeans. Everybody is welcome to wear a pair of blue jeans if they so desire. Whereas with certain kinds of rock, sometimes part of the fun is feeling like you're part of a special club, like you get it and nobody else does. Country music to me is just not like that. It's for everybody.Country Close UpThat's Jodie Weckman with hotshot band Trick Pony. Jodie has had her photo taken with Phil Vassar, Jo Dee Messina, Kenny Chesney, the Dixie Chicks, and even Shania Twain. Who is Jodie Weckman? Just a girl who likes country music. Since she's clearly got being a fan down to an art, we asked Jodie to share some tips for fans just starting on their country adventure.To find out when artists are coming to your town, Jodie recommends checking the stars' websites for their posted tour schedule. Pollstar, Ticketmaster, and Clear Channel also have extremely helpful websites.When it comes to scoring tickets, you can always buy them, but it's even better to win them. Jodie suggests doing all the radio station giveaway contests, especially in-store promotions where you have to put your name in a box (not many people actually make the effort, so your odds of winning are much better). Jodie's won prizes ranging from VIP seating to pre-show party passes. She even got to meet Shania Twain backstage thanks to a promotion run by her local radio station.Join a star's fan club for preferred seating and meet-and-greet opportunities. Each artist's policy is different, but you usually get a chance to say hello to the star before the concert, pose for a picture, and get an autograph. Liz Beavers, president of Martina McBride's fan club, reports Martina tries to arrange fan meet-and-greets at her concerts, and most everyone writes me later telling me how charming and down-to-earth she is. Jodie names Keith Urban, Rascal Flatts, Trick Pony, and Craig Morgan as up-and-coming artists who are especially friendly at their meet-and-greets.If you don't live in an area where country stars come to perform, Jodie recommends going to Fan Fair in Nashville. This annual four-day all-star event is a great way to meet and see performances from practically every country star you can think of. Surrounded by over a hundred thousand of your fellow fans, you'll be overcome by the feeling of community. And you'll know that everyone there is thinking the same thing: There's nothing better than being a country fan!Welcome to the club.Phil Vassar, American Child (Arista)--Not only is this piano man apparently a very attentive father, he's a talented songwriter and extremely entertaining in concert. Join his fan club ASAP.Jo Dee Messina, I'm Alright (Curb)--Packed full of catchy tunes. Even the ones Phil Vassar didn't write are fab.George Jones and Tammy Wynette, George Tammy's Greatest Hits (Sony)--Sooner or later you'll end up in George and Tammy's world. Start off with a collection of their amazing duets.Trick Pony, On a Mission (Warner Bros.)--They look a little cartoonish, but so does Buck Owens! Heidi Newfield has a powerful voice that reeks of old-fashioned honky-tonk.Rascal Flatts, Melt (Lyric Street)--Girls melt when this trio of charmers take the stage. See them live to fully appreciate their charisma.Keith Urban, Golden Road (Capitol)--This nice blond Aussie plays a mean guitar.Craig Morgan, Love It (Broken Bow)--Fan Jodie Weckman highly recommends giving this not-so-well-known but super-nice guy a listen.Chapter 2Seven Essential HunksLet's go Strait to the good stuff: all the fabulous hunks in hats. Today's country is overrun by so many stone-cold sexy gents that it's almost too much of a good thing! Every time you turn on CMT there's another hottie demanding your attention. They come in twos (Brooks Dunn), threes (Rascal Flatts), fours (Lonestar), and sixes (Diamond Rio). They're even being imported from Australia (Keith Urban) and Canada (Emerson Drive)! While all of these contenders are extremely worthy, there are seven men who define the genre. Consider them contemporary country's Top Guns.1 George StraitSign: Taurus (b. May 18, 1952)Height: 5'10''Eyes: GreenUnder the hat: Strong head of hair (Witness the She'll Leave You with a Smile video)Availability: Taken (married since 1971 to high school sweetheart, Norma)First album: Strait Country (1981)Sexiest album cover: George in a bar, Always Never the Same (1999)Song you've probably heard: Amarillo by MorningFemale fan favorite: You Look So Good in LoveWhy he's essential: George Strait is today's quintessential male country singer. He has the career that all the hat acts who ape him hope to have.Still on top of his game after two decades, George has more number-one singles (fifty, with more certain to come) than any other country artist, and his older hits are still in regular rotation on country radio. Strait's magic formula for picking hits? He listens first to a song's melody. If it grabs him, he then focuses on the lyrics.When it comes to touring, George Strait is also the act to beat. In fact, at one time or another he's hired most of the other essential hunks to be his opening act.George Strait has even starred in a Hollywood movie, Pure Country, which is basically a contemporary country take on the old Elvis movie formula: See George lovin', fightin', and singin' up a storm in glorious Technicolor! In true Elvis fashion, the sound track is better than the film.With George Strait, there are no negatives, points out music journalist Beverly Keel. He's beautiful, he sings well, he's a gentleman, he's humble. He's a cowboy, lives on a ranch, been married to the same woman forever. How can you not like George Strait?2 Garth BrooksSign: Aquarius (b. February 7, 1962)Height: 6'1''Eyes: BlueUnder the hat: Graying and thinning (looks good cut very short)Availability: He's divorced from his first wife, but odds are he won't remain single for longFirst album: Garth Brooks (1989)Sexiest album cover: Garth in a stable, Sevens (1997)Song you've probably heard: The DanceFemale fan favorite: If Tomorrow Never ComesWhy he's essential: Garth Brooks is the Oprah of country music. People either love him or hate him, but no one can deny his preeminence (the Recording Industry Association of America has ...",arts & photography;books;country;music;musical genres,5 0852637888,Egyptian Gods and Myths (Shire Egyptology) Angela P.

They live in unidentified suburban communities--""our little subdivided corners of Camelot""--with such limited awareness of one another's inner lives that their decisions to marry or divorce utterly astonish their friends and relatives. Couples seem to have built entire relationships out of small talk; many characters are plagued by despair, and crippled by disease or accidents. Rindo's stories offer scant more than the familiar message that all is not well in suburbia--his social commentary can be superficial, his jokes stale, his dialogue stiff with talk-show sociology. And yet there are effective scenes, and protagonists who discover unexpected reasons for hope. The giant snapping turtle that appears on the front lawn in ""Under the Carapace"" absorbs the anger and galvanizes the courage of a family suffering through a grandfather's illness and a father's desertion. The death-defying turtle is strong and frightening, and its presence suggests that Rindo has talents not yet exploited. Copyright 1989 Reed Business Information, Inc. ""Under the Carapace,"" the first of seven stories in this collection, lifts the lid on the breakup of a marriage with children. The teenaged son directs his anger and resentment at a runaway father toward a turtle that decides to nest in the backyard flower garden. In ""Learning to Drive,"" a man who has lost a leg to cancer, and who is dying, has his desire to live renewed when his wife gives him driving lessons. An encounter with a beached whale brings a cathartic awakening to a man obsessed with sexual promiscuity in ""Design."" Most of these stories are set in white, middle-class America, with characters who are like people we all know but probably don't like very much. Yet by looking closely at their lives, Rindo tries to make us care about them, and sometimes he succeeds. The situations he presents are immediately interesting, though he sometimes slips into sentimentality. A promising first collection.- Francis Poole, Kentucky Wesleyan Coll., OwensboroCopyright 1990 Reed Business Information, Inc. In ""Suburban Metaphysics,"" Ronald J. Rindo dissects middle-class angst with a gentle but firm hand. The short stories often turn on a single image, but Rindo's wit keeps the reader from feeling lectured, even when the moral often accompanies the finale -- St. Paul Pioneer Press Dispatch, March 11, 1990These stories are about pain and loss told with sensitivity and attention to detail. In the best one, ""Under the Carapace,"" a huge snapping turtle comes to inhabit the back yard of a suburban family undergoing domestic turmoil brought on by the husband-father's having run off with a supermarket check-out girl. The turtle remains there, immovable, imperturbable, an omen and a rebuke, until the situation resolves itself, presumably to the turtle's satisfaction -- Star Tribune, Sunday, March 4, 1990 Ron Rindo was born and raised in Wisconsin, and received his B.A. from Carroll College and Ph.D. from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. He has taught at Birmingham-southern College, Birmingham, Alabama, and currently teaches at the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh. From ""Let Me Call You Sweetheart"": ""Hello? Operator?"" My father was at work, calling from the greasy pay phone by the coffee machine on his lunch break. I could hear the machinery at the shop humming in the background. It was the first time he had ever called me on the telephone-probably the first time he had ever used a pay phone. He'd said the telephone was something that women used to pass the time. ""Dad?"" I said. ""It's me. You dialed direct. You don't talk to the operator."" ""Hello Johnny? Phone calls cost two bits now, can you believe that?"" ""Inflation,"" I said. ""What's up?"" He paused for a moment. ""How's Susan?"" ""She's doing great. She's at work."" ""Pregnant yet?"" He chuckled. ""She doesn't want kids right now, Dad. We've been over that."" ""How's the paper coming?"" ""It's coming along."" When Susan and I married, I was just beginning my doctoral dissertation, and we agreed that she would work full time (she was an accountant) while I finished my degree. While I stayed at home, writing, Susan was out calculating the debits and credits of the world. It was an arrangement that my father could never understand. ""Listen, Johnny,"" he said. There was a long pause, and I could hear the hum and the steady thump, thump of a punch press. ""You got to talk to your mother."" ""I do. She calls every week to tell me what's on sale at the grocery store."" ""For me,"" he said. ""You got to talk to her about me. She's giving me a lot of trouble."" ""What do you mean?"" ""I don't know. I can't say nothing she don't get upset about. I give her flowers, she says I'm feeling guilty. I bring her candy, she says she's on a diet, and feeds it to the dog. Been going on for months, and I don't know what to do anymore. She hates me."" ""She does not,"" I said. ""She's probably just mad about something. Ask her about it"" ""Listen, I gotta go.,"" he said. ""Someone's waiting on the phone. This isn't just a fight or anything. It's different. I'm not kidding."" He paused. ""She might want to divorce me."" ""No, Dad. I'm sure that's not it."" ""I got to go,"" he said.

Listening to this album is traveling throughout musical tales whose landscapes are set in the world of fairies and other lands of a supernatural character. The music is bright, full of emotions. One of the most impressive pieces in the album is, in my opinion, Garden Lullaby. -- Sarah Tomblin ""When I was little I used to sneak a crystal radio under the covers at night, and listen to its music to put me to sleep. Mom and dad never knew. Back then I was not very interested in Fairies, but now I am! So I've taken some of my favorite sleepy time songs and turned them into little lullabies for you, in hopes that the music of the fairies will take you into their land of sweet dreams when it's time for bed."" ~ Gary As a pianist, composer, songwriter and producer, Gary Stadler is a strong influence in the genre of contemporary Celtic music. Gary has continued to grow as an artist and refine his music, combining melodic elements of rare world instruments and symphonic wizardry to become one of the best selling composers of Celtic inspired music today. In 1993 Gary wrote the songs, Dream Spell and Awakening, for a stage play produced and performed in San Diego entitled ""The Goblins Bride"", based on Celtic myths of the realm of ""Faerie"". Over the next few years he crafted more songs based on this theme, creating the intimately mysterious piano and synthesizer bliss found on his first album, Fairy of the Woods, released by Sequoia Records in 1996. Garys heartfelt piano and sensitive orchestrations were well received by fans of New Age and Celtic music. New Age Voice Magazine wrote: ""Strong and compelling melodies and lovely synth orchestral settings make Gary Stadlers Fairy of! the Woods a magical charmer. Stadlers melodies and arrangements are classically structured, but his orchestrations offer a colorful imagination the opportunity to inhabit the auld Celtic realms of fairies and wizards, glens and caves, fireflies and stardust."" Vacationing in Hawaii the following year, Gary met vocalist/guitarist/songwriter Singh Kaur, known to New Age listeners for her ""Crimson Series"" of acoustic recordings. Enchanted by her pure voice and talent Gary invited her to join him in his second album, Fairy Night Songs, released in May 1998 by Sequoia Records. Steve Ryals for New Age Retailer wrote: ""Kaur and Stadler bring the healing mystery of the fairy folk to life. Kaurs voice soars like fairies dancing on gentle night breezes, with lyrics and pure vocalizations. Stadler composed most of the music and contributed string bass and cello to his keyboards and piano. The 16-page cover booklet is filled with entrancing art and complete lyrics. Fairy Night Songs is absolutely exquisite from beginning to end."" For his third record, Gary collaborated with Stephannie, a young vocalist and songwriter with a unique talent: by recalling her dreams she composes lyrics in a new language of Celtic fantasy no one has heard before.! Together they recorded a delicate and innocent sound. With Garys incomparable piano melodies, Stephannies enchanting fairy language, and joined by the renowned Celtic harpist Lisa Lynne, Sequoia released Fairy Heart Magic in October 2000 to a warm reception by fans and retailers alike, and saw a chart position on Billboards New Age Top 25. The CD is enhanced with a CD-ROM section that offers two bonus songs in MP3 format and additional artwork. In the fall of 2003, Sequoia released Gary Stadlers eagerly awaited fourth album, Reflections of Faerie, which, once again, features his pure piano sound along with the lovely harp artistry of Lisa Lynne. This recording heralded a return to his original instrumental pieces reminiscent of his first release Fairy of the Woods but with a deeper and more intimate feel. Gary has recently completed his fifth release in collaboration with the enchanting vocalist, Wendy Rule, from Australia, entitled Deep Within a Faerie Forest, that released in September of 2004. This title once again delves deep into the depths of the mystical Faerie realms within the heart of this enchanted musical woodland. For his latest Fall 2006 release, Fairy Lullabies, Gary has created new instrumental lullaby versions of some of his most beloved melodies. All Music Guide reviewer, MacKenzie Wilson has said, ""Garys talents for symphonic wizardry have made him one of the new millennium's forerunners in new age music."" And we couldnt agree with her more. Embark on a sweetly relaxing journey into the enchanting world of Fairies that will touch your heart with its innocent beauty. Award-winning composer Gary Stadler has responded to requests from his fans and created new instrumental lullaby versions of some of his most loved melodies plus one new song. The result is serenely enchanting music that will soothe both children and parents alike. Garys soulfully beautiful melodies will guide you into a mystical world of dreams where you touch gently down into the heart of the Fairy realm. Fairy Lullabies is perfect for calming kids for naptime or tucking them into bed for the night. More than just lullaby music for children, Garys tender piano, keyboard orchestrations and Enya-esque vocals along with special guest Lisa Lynnes Celtic harp create a peaceful atmosphere in the home - also ideal for yoga, massage and meditation.

With no coating or surface treatment, this uncoated tool can be used on a broad range of materials. The 30-degree helix angle supports general-purpose applications. It balances lower angles strong cutting edge for difficult-to-machine materials with higher angles increased cutting action. The tools square end has straight cutting edges that create sharp, unrounded cuts, while the center-cutting design has cutting teeth at the end of the tool that support making pocket cuts, profiling, and slotting. Cutting diameter tolerance is +0.001 to -0.000. The end mill has a Weldon shank. End mills are designed to remove material and create multi-dimensional shapes and profiles. They have cutting edges along the outside diameter and flutes that remove chips from the cutting area and allow cooling fluids to enter. If heat is not reduced effectively, the tools cutting edges will dull and additional material buildup can occur. The number of flutes can range from two to eight. Two-flute designs offer the most efficient chip removal, but more flutes provide a smoother finish. The shank is the end of the tool held in place by a tool holder or machine. Center-cutting end mills can create three-dimensional shapes and profiles, and make plunge cuts similar to a drill bit. Non-center-cutting end mills are for applications such as peripheral milling and finishing, but cannot make plunge cuts. Niagara Cutter has been designing and manufacturing precision cutting tools since 1954. Specializing in end mills, cutting mills, and saws, the company is based in New York and manufactures its tools at facilities in Pennsylvania and Massachusetts. This allows the company control over production, from substrate to coating, which is essential for customers in a variety of industries, especially aerospace and automotive.",cutting tools;end mills;industrial & scientific;milling tools;square nose end mills,5 B0000ATHTD,"Shakespeare One-Piece Medium Heavy Action Ugly Stik Spinning Rod Ugly Stik One-piece 6'6"" MH action rod",fishing;hunting & fishing;rods;spinning rods;sports & outdoors,5 B00004SY6T,"Calphalon Commercial Nonstick 5-Quart Sauté Pan with Lid Calphalon Commercial pans are made for the serious cook who's looking for kitchenware built to last a lifetime. For example, this straight-sided, 12-inch diameter, 5-quart saut pan, with its heavy-gauge aluminum bottom and sides, heats evenly and won't warp under higher heat needed for pan-frying. Use a light hand on the heat dial though to protect the nonstick surface from overheating. Also, use plastic, coated, or wood utensils to protect the finish. The curved cast stainless-steel handle is easy to grip and stay cooler than expected, thanks to V-shaped splits where they meet the pan. There's also a short looped utility handle on the opposite side of the pan for heavy lifting. Unlike pans with plastic or wood handles, the extremely sturdy all-metal construction provides the flexibility to take the pan to the oven to keep food warm until it's ready to serve. Remember to hand wash all Calphalon pans--dishwasher detergents are bad for the finish, and their use voids the lifetime warranty. --Dale Steinke Company's coming and your spouse just told you?

Daryl Hall and John Oates's mega-'80s-sounding hit ""Private Eyes"" is a guilty, sing-along pleasure, and the Impressions' ""Get Up and Move"" jives with big horns and soul. New wave synth chic even checks in, with the Human League's droll ""(Keep Feeling) Fascination"" and Modern English's romantic ""I Melt with You."" The only newer tracks are courtesy of Noe Venable--and even then, ""Breakdown"" is her fragile, haunting cover of the Tom Petty song. The mix on Cherish is definitely low-key, if a little heavy on sappiness. Yet its diversity, charmingly, works well. While certainly jumping decades with impunity, Cherish's high quality hits mesh nicely--creating a sweet, fluffy compilation CD of love songs covering all shapes and styles. --Annie Zaleski",blues;miscellaneous;music;pop;soundtracks,5 B00004WFTS,"Fwef Double Sided Diafold - Extra Fine / Fine A handy 4-1/3-inch by 7/8-inch diamond sharpening stone with unique folding handles which close around the stone to form a protective storage sheath.

A Celebration is a beautiful book. For any fan who has been captivated by the Edward Gorey cartoons, the erudite words of Vincent Price and Diana Rigg, or the tastefully assembled mysteries that make up the beloved PBS series, the volume (as P.D. James writes in the foreword) ""will give immense pleasure."" The book begins with a behind-the-scenes glimpse of the early years of the series and includes an interview with Gorey, comments by Diana Rigg, and parting words from Vincent Price. The centerpiece, however, is the complete record of Mystery! episodes from 1980-1997, with in-depth coverage of all the major detective characters and ""denizens of the dark side,"" from Sherlock Holmes to Sweeney Todd. Color and black-and-white photographs grace almost every page, and key series are followed by a bibliography and profiles of the actors and authors. A 100-question quiz and a list of show credits close the book. The only disappointment: realizing the quality episodes you have missed. --Patrick O'Kelley Capitalizing on the popularity of the long-running PBS Mystery series, Miller has concocted a fanzine for the public-TV set. He lists each series that has appeared on the show since its inception in 1980, providing plot summaries, cast lists, reviews, photos, and interviews with authors, directors, and actors. Some of the trivia proves quite fascinating. An interview with John Thaw, who plays the popular Inspector Morse, reveals that even though Thaw doesn't drink, loyal fans constantly ply him with offers of ale and bitter on Morse's behalf. Sherlock Holmes fans will be delighted to know that the Abbey National Building Society, located at 217^-229 Baker Street, employs a full-time secretary to answer the hundreds of letters addressed to Holmes at his fictional 221b Baker St. headquarters. The book is well organized, well documented, and mostly well written, and it provides the kind of inside info that will delight Mystery fans hungry for details about the series.

Not that the years have been wasted, as Flickering Flame--a compilation of key tracks from Waters's solo albums as well as hitherto unheard material--amply demonstrates. Anyone who imagined that Waters's personal and understandably heartfelt ruminations on the loss of a father he never knew (killed at Anzio during World War II) on The Final Cut--the last Floyd album to feature Waters at the helm and practically his solo album in all but name--would prove to be an ultimately cathartic moment of self-exorcism has underestimated the extent to which Waters still experiences frustration at the world's inability to sort itself out. Like Aussie-Scot folk protester Eric Bogle and The The's Matt Johnson, Waters is happiest (unhappiest?) when addressing the futility of self-serving international aggression and socio-political inequality, the ubiquity of which in his material's subject matter can make any Roger Waters album an exacting experience for all but the diehard pacifist Pink Floyd fan. Even so, Waters is articulate, earnest, and portentous (if occasionally pompous), and moments like the cable TV-inspired satire of war as a narcissistic, armchair spectator sport on ""Perfect Sense,"" the glimmers of hope in ""Each Small Candle"" (inspired by a small instance of Serbian kindness during the Kosovo conflict), and the lullaby of ""The Tide Is Turning"" all represent him at his most powerfully literate peak. Of the previously unreleased material, a straight cover of Dylan's ""Knockin' on Heaven's Door""--from the score of the Israeli film The Dybbuk of the Holy Apple Field--is the best, it being impossible to disassociate from the tragedy of Dunblane, an event which probably angered Waters no end. Less essential is ""Flickering Flame""--which is sung in a silly hick-town hillbilly accent--and ""Lost Boys Calling"" (original demo) which is off-puttingly out of tune. --Kevin Maidment 'Flickering Flame' is a definite retrospective covering Rogers solo career, encompassing songs from his three solo albums and his live release.

Eminent attorney and Sherlockian Klinger completes the daunting mission he began with 2004's two volumes examining the original 56 short stories to feature the great detective with this robust third book containing the four Holmes novels. All the gifts that netted Klinger an Edgar Award for best critical/biographical work are again in evidence: clear definitions of obscure terms, pithy discussions of some of the issues that have puzzled and delighted Holmes fans for generations (where exactly was Watson wounded?) and lucid essays (which legend inspired The Hound of the Baskervilles?). Klinger manages the difficult feat of appealing both to those new to the world of Sherlockian scholarship and to those who can quote the stories like gospel.

A rising star on the southern literary scene, Nevada Bluff is the debut novel of this award winning short story writer. Nevada Bluff is a story about imperfect people who stumble across love while they are busy living their lives. They almost miss it, because of their own insecurities, and the distractions that fill their days. Several reviewers have commented that Nevada Bluff feels like a movie from the past. I am flattered when they say that because those films were an original 20th century art form, and I have always been a fan. From Chapter 1: 'Is Actress Margo Now Excess Cargo? Could it be a TKO for Margo Grant as hubby Larry leaves RKO and heads for new digs at Paramount? Insiders say he has a newer, younger and even blonder paramour.' -Hedda Hopper Margo Grant stood on the baggage platform, impatiently tapping the toe of her elegant high-heeled shoe. Pulling up the collar of her full-length mink coat, she shielded her face from the dusty afternoon winds. The May weather in Reno was cool but not cool enough to warrant fur. She didn't care; Margo needed her mink. If her marriage to Larry was really over, that coat was about all she had to show for the past ten years. She lit a cigarette, drew a quick puff of smoke into her lungs and surveyed the desolate scene from behind her large, dark glasses. The tiny Reno-Carson City airport was even smaller than she expected. Just a couple of airstrips and a few Quonset huts set in the middle of an arid field. What was she doing here? Glancing at her watch, she grew even more impatient. The flight from Los Angeles to Reno had arrived fifteen minutes early. The car from the Silver Dollar ranch was now five minutes overdue. By Margo's calculation, somebody was twenty minutes late. Three women from her flight were gathered about twenty feet away. They were laughing and talking, obviously enjoying each other's company. The platform stood empty, save them and her. It was growing more likely by the minute that they were bound for the same destination. Margo wished, in a way, she could join them, but she knew she wouldn't be welcome. She had worked hard to create the aloofness that afforded her protection from strangers. She started developing it years before, on the playground, after her father died and Margo became that poor Greenwood kid with the alcoholic mother. She found it hard to drop it now, even when she felt so desperately alone. Suddenly aware that the other women were watching her, Margo dropped her cigarette butt and ground it into the platform with the toe of her shoe. She was proud of the motion. She had practiced it many times for the effect it had on screen. Margo learned to smoke for Larry. He insisted all great actresses smoked. There was Bette Davis, Joan Crawford and even Rita Hayworth. She couldn't argue with him on that. She wished she hadn't agreed to bleach her hair, though. Except perhaps for Lana Turner, she couldn't think of a single blonde actress who was taken very seriously. After ten years and eleven pictures, Margo was still struggling to get 'that part'. Now this. She could kill Larry for doing this to her. Had she done the right thing, leaving him alone in Beverly Hills with his eighteen-year-old protg? Maybe she had moved too quickly, threatening him with a divorce and flying off to Reno. What if that's what Larry wanted all along, to embarrass her into leaving, into filing for divorce? That would be so like him, not man enough to take the direct approach. The surreal image of Debbie and Larry laughing together in her bedroom flashed through Margo's mind. She shuddered. A year ago she was at the top of her form. She had a new movie out, and, in her opinion, Margo looked the best she had in her life. Debbie had changed all that. Now she felt old and tired. Margo hated her more for that than for stealing her husband. She gave a soft cynical laugh. Maybe, by stealing Larry, Debbie was really doing her a favor. No, that wasn't true. As bad as he was, Margo would forgive Larry in a minute if he came back to her, if he would just say he was sorry. Right now, she didn't even care if it was a lie. Larry was her life. Without him, she was just a fading blonde actress in a mink coat. Margo noticed a dusty cloud trailing a wood-paneled station wagon. The green 1948 Plymouth was only two years old, but looked well used. When it came to a stop, a tall man unfolded himself from behind the wheel. He tipped his worn Stetson politely, revealing a mass of curly brown hair. His handsome face somehow surprised Margo. She rarely saw people outside of Hollywood that were as good looking. ""Howdy, ladies. I'm from the Silver Dollar Ranch. Ya'll been here long?"" he asked. Without waiting for an answer, he hurried around the car and opened the doors. ""Plane must have caught a tail wind,"" he remarked. ""Sorry if you had to wait long."" He jumped up on the platform to help the women with their luggage. Margo eyed him with suspicion. His plaid shirt strained across a muscular chest. Faded jeans, loose at the waist, tight at the thighs, puddled around dusty boots. His rough-and-tumble good looks did not impress her. She had known other farm boys, equally handsome, who were just trouble in blue jeans. She tossed her hair back and set her jaw. ""You're late!"" ""It's not his fault. The plane was early,"" squeaked a mousy-haired Southerner standing a short distance from her. ""Well, someone's at fault,"" Margo insisted. She lit another cigarette and fixed the man with a cold stare. ""We've been standing out here in this dusty wind for nearly half an hour. Someone should have checked to see what time we'd arrive."" The young man smiled good-naturedly, revealing deep, boyish dimples. ""Well, Ma'am, I'm mighty sorry about that, but, in just a minute, I'll have your luggage loaded and we'll be on our way."" He reached for the ladies' suitcases and then turned to Margo. ""Don't you have a bag, Ma'am?"" Margo shot the cowboy a contemptuous glance and pointed to the luggage cart. ""Those are mine."" ""Jiminey! Which ones?"" he asked, scratching his head.

Here are stories of robots gone mad, mind-reading robots, robots with a sense of humor, robot politicians, and robots who secretly run the world, all told with Asimov's trademark dramatic blend of science fact and science fiction. --This text refers to the Mass Market Paperback edition. An exciting science thriller...' New York Times --This text refers to the Hardcover edition. The three laws of Robotics:1) A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm2) A robot must obey orders givein to it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.3) A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.With these three, simple directives, Isaac Asimov changed our perception of robots forever when he formulated the laws governing their behavior. In I, Robot, Asimov chronicles the development of the robot through a series of interlinked stories: from its primitive origins in the present to its ultimate perfection in the not-so-distant future--a future in which humanity itself may be rendered obsolete.Here are stories of robots gone mad, of mind-read robots, and robots with a sense of humor.

Gloria withdrew her chubby little forearm from before her eyes and stood for a moment, wrinkling her nose and blinking in the sunlight. Then, trying to watch in all directions at once, she withdrew a few cautious steps from the tree against which she had been leaning.She craned her neck to investigate the possibilities of a clump of bushes to the right and then withdrew farther to obtain a better angle for viewing its dark recesses. The quiet was profound except for the incessant buzzing of insects and the occasional chirrup of some hardy bird, braving the midday sun.Gloria pouted, I bet he went inside the house, and I've told him a million times that that's not fair.With tiny lips pressed together tightly and a severe frown crinkling her forehead, she moved determinedly toward the two-story building up past the driveway.Too late she heard the rustling sound behind her, followed by the distinctive and rhythmic clump-clump of Robbie's metal feet. She whirled about to see her triumphing companion emerge from hiding and make for the home-tree at full speed.Gloria shrieked in dismay. Wait, Robbie! That wasn't fair, Robbie! You promised you wouldn't run until I found you. Her little feet could make no headway at all against Robbie's giant strides. Then, within ten feet of the goal, Robbie's pace slowed suddenly to the merest of crawls, and Gloria, with one final burst of wild speed, dashed pantingly past him to touch the welcome bark of home-tree first.Gleefully, she turned on the faithful Robbie, and with the basest of ingratitude, rewarded him for his sacrifice by taunting him cruelly for a lack of running ability.Robbie can't run, she shouted at the top of her eight-year-old voice. I can beat him any day. I can beat him any day. She chanted the words in a shrill rhythm.Robbie didn't answer, of coursenot in words. He pantomimed running instead, inching away until Gloria found herself running after him as he dodged her narrowly, forcing her to veer in helpless circles, little arms outstretched and fanning at the air.Robbie, she squealed, stand still!And the laughter was forced out of her in breathless jerks.Until he turned suddenly and caught her up, whirling her round, so that for her the world fell away for a moment with a blue emptiness beneath, and green trees stretching hungrily downward toward the void. Then she was down in the grass again, leaning against Robbie's leg and still holding a hard, metal finger.After a while, her breath returned. She pushed uselessly at her disheveled hair in vague imitation of one of her mother's gestures and twisted to see if her dress were torn.She slapped her hand against Robbie's torso, Bad boy! I'll spank you!And Robbie cowered, holding his hands over his face so that she had to add, No, I won't, Robbie. I won't spank you. But anyway, it's my turn to hide now because you've got longer legs and you promised not to run till I found you.Robbie nodded his heada small parallelepiped with rounded edges and corners attached to a similar but much larger parallelepiped that served as torso by means of a short, flexible stalkand obediently faced the tree. A thin, metal film descended over his glowing eyes and from within his body came a steady, resonant ticking.Don't peek nowand don't skip any numbers, warned Gloria, and scurried for cover.With unvarying regularity, seconds were ticked off, and at the hundredth, up went the eyelids, and the glowing red of Robbie's eyes swept the prospect. They rested for a moment on a bit of colorful gingham that protruded from behind a boulder. He advanced a few steps and convinced himself that it was Gloria who squatted behind it.Slowly, remaining always between Gloria and home-tree, he advanced on the hiding place, and when Gloria was plainly in sight and could no longer even theorize to herself that she was not seen, he extended one arm toward her, slapping the other against his leg so that it rang again. Gloria emerged sulkily.You peeked! she exclaimed, with gross unfairness. Besides I'm tired of playing hide-and-seek. I want a ride.But Robbie was hurt at the unjust accusation, so he seated himself carefully and shook his head ponderously from side to side.Gloria changed her tone to one of gentle coaxing immediately, Come on, Robbie. I didn't mean it about the peeking. Give me a ride.Robbie was not to be won over so easily, though. He gazed stubbornly at the sky, and shook his head even more emphatically.Please, Robbie, please give me a ride. She encircled his neck with rosy arms and hugged tightly. Then, changing moods in a moment, she moved away. If you don't, I'm going to cry, and her face twisted appallingly in preparation.Hard-hearted Robbie paid scant attention to this dreadful possibility, and shook his head a third time. Gloria found it necessary to play her trump card.If you don't, she exclaimed warmly, I won't tell you any more stories, that's all. Not oneRobbie gave in immediately and unconditionally before this ultimatum, nodding his head vigorously until the metal of his neck hummed. Carefully, he raised the little girl and placed her on his broad, flat shoulders.Gloria's threatened tears vanished immediately and she crowed with delight. Robbie's metal skin, kept at a constant temperature of seventy by the high resistance coils within, felt nice and comfortable, while the beautifully loud sound her heels made as they bumped rhythmically against his chest was enchanting.You're an air-coaster, Robbie, you're a big, silver air-coaster. Hold out your arms straight. You got to, Robbie, if you're going to be an air-coaster.The logic was irrefutable. Robbie's arms were wings catching the air currents and he was a silver 'coaster.Gloria twisted the robot's head and leaned to the right. He banked sharply. Gloria equipped the 'coaster with a motor that went Br-r-r and then with weapons that went Powie and Sh-sh-shshsh. Pirates were giving chase and the ship's blasters were coming into play. The pirates dropped in a steady rain.Got another one. Two more, she cried.Then Faster, men, Gloria said pompously, we're running out of ammunition. She aimed over her shoulder with undaunted courage and Robbie was a blunt-nosed spaceship zooming through the void at maximum acceleration.Clear across the field he sped, to the patch of tall grass on the other side, where he stopped with a suddenness that evoked a shriek from his flushed rider, and then tumbled her onto the soft, green carpet.Gloria gasped and panted, and gave voice to intermittent whispered exclamations of That was nice!Robbie waited until she had caught her breath and then pulled gently at a lock of hair.You want something? said Gloria, eyes wide in an apparently artless complexity that fooled her huge nursemaid not at all. He pulled the curl harder.Oh, I know. You want a story.Robbie nodded rapidly.Which one?Robbie made a semi-circle in the air with one finger.The little girl protested, Again? I've told you Cinderella a million times. Aren't you tired of it? It's for babies.Another semi-circle.Oh, well, Gloria composed herself, ran over the details of the tale in her mind (together with her own elaborations, of which she had several) and began:Are you ready? Wellonce upon a time there was a beautiful little girl whose name was Ella. And she had a terribly cruel step-mother and two very ugly and very cruel step-sisters andGloria was reaching the very climax of the talemidnight was striking and everything was changing back to the shabby originals lickety-split, while Robbie listened tensely with burning eyeswhen the interruption came.Gloria!It was the high-pitched sound of a woman who has been calling not once, but several times; and had the nervous tone of one in whom anxiety was beginning to overcome impatience.Mamma's calling me, said Gloria, not quite happily. You'd better carry me back to the house, Robbie.Robbie obeyed with alacrity for somehow there was that in him which judged it best to obey Mrs. Weston, without as much as a scrap of hesitation. Gloria's father was rarely home in the daytime except on Sundaytoday, for instanceand when he was, he proved a genial and understanding person. Gloria's mother, however, was a source of uneasiness to Robbie and there was always the impulse to sneak away from her sight.Mrs. Weston caught sight of them the minute they rose above the masking tufts of long grass and retired inside the house to wait.I've shouted myself hoarse, Gloria, she said, severely. Where were you?I was with Robbie, quavered Gloria. I was telling him Cinderella, and I forgot it was dinner-time.Well, it's a pity Robbie forgot, too. Then, as if that reminded her of the robot's presence, she whirled upon him. You may go, Robbie. She doesn't need you now. Then, brutally, And don't come back till I call you.Robbie turned to go, but hesitated as Gloria cried out in his defense, Wait, Mamma, you got to let him stay. I didn't finish Cinderella for him. I said I would tell him Cinderella and I'm not finished.Gloria!Honest and truly, Mamma, he'll stay so quiet, you won't even ... --This text refers to an alternate Paperback edition. I, ROBOT is an unabridged narration of Isaac Asimov's short story collection, often counted among his best work. The stories are connected by discussions between ""robo-psychologist"" Susan Calvin (the main character in most of the stories) and a reporter who is putting together a profile of her career. In Scott Brick's capable hands, this classic piece of science fiction glows anew. From stories of the first rudimentary robots to stories of robots complicated enough to need a robo-psychologist, Brick reads with the enthusiasm and clarity that places him among the best narrators in audio.

The almost matter-of-fact tone of ""What My Father Told Me"" and ""Two Pictures of My Sister"" expresses the resignation of girls who have learned to assimilate the horrors of sexual and physical violation into the otherwise innocuous routines of their childhood. Too often, however, the uncompromising directness of the poet's vision is diluted by imprecise metaphors and insignificant themes. The strained erotic images of ""The Laundromat"" are gratuitous as well as embarrassing, and ""Adam's Dad Teaches the Kids to Play Ball"" transforms an already bland subject into a cliche. It is difficult to believe that this is the same writer who, in ""Quarter to Six,"" gives us such a masterfully complex portrait of a friendship between two women battling the pain of their pasts amid the hellishness of a mental asylum. This poem, encompassing Laux's most important themes, is the vibrant heart of this uneven but provocative collection.

(Philip Levine) --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. First published in 1990, Awake marked the stunning debut of poet DORIANNE LAUX. She has since published three other collections: What We Carry (1994), which was a finalist for the National Book critics Circle Award, Smoke (2000), and Facts About the Moon (2005), which won the Oregon Book Award and was short-listed for the 2006 Lenore Marshall Poetry Prize. The recipient of an Editor's Choice III Award, two Best American Poetry prizes, and two Pushcart prizes, Laux is also the coauthor, with Kim Addonizio, of The Poet's Companion: A Guide to the Pleasures of Writing Poetry. Her work has appeared in numerous journals and magazines, and she is among the poets to earn a place in The Norton Anthology of Contemporary Poetry. In 2001 she was invited by the late poet laureate Stanley Kunitz to read at the Library of Congress.Born in Augusta, Maine, Laux moved to northern California in 1983 and subsequently graduated from Mills College, in Oakland, with a BA in English. She has waited tables and written poetry in San Diego, Los Angeles, Berkley, and Petaluma, California, and in Juneau, Alaska, and her poems have been translated into French, Italian, Korean, Romanian, and Brazilian Portuguese. Among her many honors are two fellowships from the National Endowment for the Arts and a Guggenheim Fellowship. In 1994 she settled in Eugene, Oregon, where she teaches creative writing at the University of Oregon.

That event was the lowest point in Molhan's difficult life, which included three failed marriages. The perpetrator of the crime was apprehended and sentenced to prison. Frustrated by the attitude of the courts toward victims of violent crime, she founded an advocacy group, Parents of Murdered Children, which later expanded to become Family and Friends of Murdered Victims. Eventually, the author arranged two mediation sessions with her son's imprisoned killer, in 1992 and 1994, although she maintains she has not forgiven him. Those sessions formed the basis for segments of the TV shows 20/20 and A Current Affair. Writing with freelancer Kavanagh, Molhan vividly conveys her pain and concludes that her life ``rests on an uneasy foundation of despair.'' A searing story. Photos not seen by PW.

While they have strength and firepower on their side, you have the insurgent's set of skills--namely, sabotage, espionage, and guerrilla tactics. You've got some nifty weapons, too. The game encompasses 16 levels in which you'll battle the Trade Fed baddies in the air, on the water, and across the land, in a variety of vehicles. Running on an enhanced Star Wars: Rogue Squadron engine, the nice game developers at Factor 5 have taken one last stab at the aging Nintendo 64 system with yet another entry into the wide world of Lucas. At times fun, but at more times frustrating, Star Wars: Episode I, Battle for Naboo has plenty going for it. Unfortunately, these good deeds are deeply overshadowed by a darker side. Were you one of the millions who enjoyed the very popular Rogue Squadron? If you were, then get ready for more of the same, only this time wrapped around a lucrative Episode I license. This should appeal to newly christened fans and hardball line campers alike, as there's more of a concrete story line to follow than in the sidelined plot of RS. Just as in the aforementioned classic, Battle for Naboo revolves around the collection of gold medals. New vehicles abound, and there's more than enough variety in the game's locales. The ability to switch craft at any time during the missions doesn't hurt the replay factor, either. If you discover the flash speeder doesn't have enough firepower to finish off that AT-AT tank, you can simply enter a different hanger and take control of a police cruiser. The graphics are astounding, even better than what RS showcased. The game displays fantastic details everywhere--even the explosions are incredible. The sound, though, is very disappointing, especially when you consider that Factor 5 is behind the scenes. To the curious, Factor 5 has been one of the pioneers of gaming audio for a while now; the company was even chosen to helm the sound capabilities of Nintendo's next-generation GameCube console. With all of Factor 5's credentials, one might expect stellar sound. In many instances, the sound comes out muffled and the voice-overs are distorted. The control and maneuvering should have been given more fine-tuning as well.

The receiver's high-power amplifier is assignable for either 7.1-channel surround operation or 5.1 surround with amplified stereo listening in another room. The AVR-2105 includes many of the high-end features that distinguish Denon's higher-priced components, like its 7 discrete channels of amplification to drive all the main loudspeakers in a 7.1 home theater surround system (front left, center, right, mid left/right, and surround left/right): 90 watts per channel into 8 ohms from 20 to 20,000 Hz with less than 0.05 percent THD. For compatibility with all of today's advanced surround-sound formats, the AVR-2105 features multichannel-channel decoding of Dolby Digital EX, DTS, DTS 96/24 (5.1 for DVD-Video), DTS ES Discrete 6/1, DTS-ES Matrix 6.1, and DTS NEO:6 (Cinema and Music modes), as well as processing for Dolby Pro Logic IIx (for cinema, music, and games). Dolby Pro Logic IIx generates multichannel surround from any stereo (2-channel source), offering a choice of processing for your music and movie content: either a room-filling 6.1 or 7.1 channels. (The "".1"" channel in all cases is a dedicated low-frequency effects channel, a passive signal intended for a stand-alone powered subwoofer.) The AVR-2105 also includes Denon's Auto Set-Up calibration, which simplifies the process of tailoring the receiver's performance for your home theater or listening room. Auto Set-Up analyzes and calibrates 6 critically important speaker settings: connections, phase, size, and frequency response. It also adjusts channel level and time delay. The calibration feature uses high-performance DSP processors and the finest available digital-to-analog converters (DACs). For best results, the company offers an optional, specially designed calibration microphone for use in calibration (model DM-S305). Of course, you can disable Auto Set-Up if you'd prefer to calibrate the receiver in the traditional manner. Since the majority of home theater speaker systems are built for 5.1, you may find yourself, in the short term, at least, with more amplifier power than your home theater requires. A function called Power Amp Assigned lets you use 2 of the amp's 7 channels to power a second zone so you can enjoy music, for instance, in the kitchen or bedroom. The AVR-2105's derives much of its high sound quality from its premium Analog Devices Hammerhead SHARC 32-bit floating point DSP processing. For exceptional resolution and dynamic range, the receiver uses premium Analog Devices AD-1837 24-bit, 192 kHz audio DACs on all channels. The AVR-2105 also includes a full complement of audio and video connections, including 3 assignable, high-bandwidth (100 MHz) component-video inputs. Video up-conversion radically simplifies connections to your TV, converting composite- and/or S-video sources to component-video without compromising video quality. If you're using a component-video-capable TV, you won't need separate composite- and S-video inputs in order to view composite- and S-video devices. Other versatile features include a high-quality AM/FM tuner with preset memory tuning and a newly designed, multi-line front-panel display that's easier to read and provides more information than the displays on earlier models. What's in the Box Receiver, remote control, remote batteries, an AM loop antenna, an indoor FM antenna, an AC power cord, a warranty card, a service-center list, and a user's manual. Delivering 90 full-bandwidth-rated watts x 7 channels of ultra-clean power plus a full complement of surround decoding options, this home-theater receiver delivers thrilling sound to TV, DVD and HDTV and more standard sound sources.

Steig and Euvremer stage a classic game of hide-and-seek in a book that proves that even the simplest and most familiar of premises can yield original charms. A mother and father (of a furry, long-tailed, indeterminate species) search the house for their impish child; reflecting the right mixture of Toby's fantasy and the parents' willingness to enter into it, Steig's (The Toy Brother) text reports that the parents are ""just a tiny bit worried."" Readers, meanwhile, can spot Toby hiding in each cozily decorated setting, although they may have to look closely. The grinning creature chooses some goofily improbable undercover positions: he's pictured atop a table on all fours, replacing the base of a Tiffany lamp; perched on the rooftop, ostensibly imitating a weather vane; and nestled among the grapes in a fruit bowl. Euvremer's (Sun's Up) quasi-pointillist art is not without flaws-it's overlit and the draftsmanship is uneven. But the pictures are nevertheless as playful as the family they picture, and they capture Toby's innocent sense of mischief. Paired with Steig's pitch-perfect writing, they add up to an hide-and-seek entry worth searching for. All ages. Copyright 1996 Reed Business Information, Inc. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. PreS. Indulgent parents search the house for their young weasel until he pops up and makes his presence known. The soft-edged images and cozy text are as reassuring as the hugs and kisses at story's end. Copyright 1997 Reed Business Information, Inc. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. Ages 1^-4. In a classic picture-book story for the very young, a toddler hides from his loving parents, and they pretend to look for him all over the house. Toby is a cute rodent creature who lives with his very elegant parents in their gracious two-story home. Toby hides, and his parents seek in all the usual places--under the bed, behind the curtains, under the rug--but the pictures are full of surprises. He's not under the table; his head is in the fruit bowl. Could he be up on the bookshelf? No, of course not, but if you look closely, you'll see that the stand of the table-lamp is on the floor, and Toby is holding up the shade. Is he in the cooking pot on the stove? No, don't be silly, but he is in the pantry with the colander on his head. Toddlers will have fun with the interactive game and the cozy mischief. Hazel Rochman --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. From early sunlit morning to candlelit evening, Toby's parents search for him throughout the house. It's all very cozy: They know he's hiding, and they're playing the game with him. Toby is in every picture--behind the fish tank, in the pantry, under the rug. When his parents finally give up, Toby leaps out from under the table, and gets ``quite a few kisses.'' Shown in a fuzzy kind of stippled color, this home is one any child might envy: dragons on the toy chest; sunflowers on the headboard; lively patterns on the rugs; and a profusion of plants, books, and playthings. The house and accoutrements have a vaguely Victorian feel, reflected in the mother's floor-length floral dress--although the father might be wearing Hush Puppies. The family, marmoset- or meerkat-like mammals, have furry features and long tails, which seem right for this soft-focus read-aloud. It's a charmer, for a younger audience than Steig's usual.

Fun, colorful, and sophisticated."" -- Chicago Tribune +EXCERPT=An IslandMany of Ireland's charms are perfectly straightforward. Visitors head there for the spectacular scenery and the warmth of the people. Ireland's real fascination, though, is its ability to confound people's preconceptions. For visitors, Ireland still seems pleasantly old-fashioned. The sociable, lively Irish are always ready to strike up a conversation, play some music, or buy the next round of drinks.Music and DanceIreland's musical traditions date back continuously over many centuries, but the current scene is exceptionally lively, with a new interest in popular folk music encouraged by tourism. Irish musicians figure prominently in rock and country-and-western groups, and some Irish virtuoso performers, such as James Galway, have become world famous.Irish instrumentsMost distinctive of the instruments used in Irish music, besides the harp, are the uilleann (elbow) pipes, a relative of the Scottish bagpipes but with a more elegiac tone particularly suited to reflective Irish tunes. The violin (simply called the fiddle in Ireland) is held casually on the shoulder and played with only a small section of the bow. The bodhrn is one of the most ancient Irish instruments, a goatskin drum played with a small stick.The modern scene In the 20th century Irish music has played an important role in the revival of nationalist sentiment and has achieved enormous popularity. The most usual venues to hear it are ceilis, where whole communities gather to dance and make music, or pubs, where seisuns (sessions) are held all over Ireland. The Love of WordsThe Irish are famously articulate. From the loquacious Celts, alleged by the Greek traveler Strabo (writing around the time of the birth of Christ) to be fond of ""wordy disputes"" and ""bombastic self-dramatization,"" through that master of empty promises, the Earl of Blarney, to today's garrulous stage Irishman, words have been a constant source of delight.A prolific streakThe Irish have written much; Ireland's contribution to English literature in all its forms -- poetry, drama, novels, essays -- is colossal, considering the size of its population. It seems as strong today as ever, with new talents bursting onto the stage and filling bookshops with new novels and poems. Food and DrinkIrish cuisineHome-grown produce includes rich dairy foods, beef, lamb and pork, a fascinating range of new Irish cheeses, and a great variety of seafood, shelled or finned. One of its great specialties is bread. Traditional Irish soda bread made with buttermilk, eaten fresh and warm, is a banquet in itself and is automatically proffered at every meal. At midday, a basket of Irish bread, a bowl of seafood chowder, and a glass of Guinness makes a cheap and completely satisfying lunch. Recently there has been a welcome return to simple, hearty Irish food such as Irish stew and potato dishes. Try colcannon (potatoes with onions and white cabbage), champ (potatoes mashed with butter and chopped chives), or coddle (potatoes with bacon and onions). Black puddings use up those bits of pig not usually found on the dinner table. At tea-time, try barm brack, a delicious sweet tea bread with dried fruit and spices.Whiskey and stoutPubs are more than mere boozing sheds; they are the social heart of many communities and often full of life and atmosphere, especially if there is some music. At some stage every visitor should try Ireland's ""nectar,"" Guinness. Some consider it tactless to request Scotch in an Irish pub -- try the local Bushmills, Powers, or other Irish brands, straight or with a splash of plain Irish water.SportsThe passion for competitive sports and athletics of many kinds reaches unprecedented heights all over the Republic. Its specialist games such as hurling and Gaelic football draw capacity crowds and cause vast excitement. HurlingThis fast and furious game has an ancient pedigree, dating back before the Christian era. It is something like no-holds-barred lacrosse, played with an ash stick or ""hurley"" and a small leather ball -- ""sliotar."" Players (15 a side) may strike the ball any distance and at any height, or carry it on the hurley. Gaelic footballThe ball is smaller than a soccer ball, and teams score one point by hitching the ball over the crossbar, or three by putting it into the goal below the crossbar. The game requires great physical strength and stamina.Tourist activitiesThere are more than 300 golf courses throughout Ireland (this number continues to rise), some of international class or in wildly beautiful settings, especially in the North. Greens fees vary considerably. Many claim Ireland is an unparalleled fishing destination, both for the quality of the sport and its low costs. Sailing centers are mostly in the Southwest, between Youghal and Dingle, with lake and river or canal cruising focused on Lough Derg, the Shannon River, the two Loughs Erne, and the Grand Canal. Myths and LegendsIrish mythology is incredibly complex; different accounts of similar stories are often interwoven with other traditions, and echoes of other Indo-European legends can often be found -- epic tales of Greeks and Romans, for instance, or biblical stories. At first the stories were not written down, but related orally as evening entertainment, which meant embroiderings in every telling. A trained file (bard) was expected to be able to relate about 350 full-length tales in poetry by heart, and would spend years learning his art. The early Christian fathers were the first to record these legends, sometimes interspersing it with their own material and turning Celtic gods into Christian saints (Saint Brigid is an example).",books;europe;general;ireland;travel,5 B0009LD732,"Compost Accelerator 2lb +Frt Organic Compost Accelerator Organica Compost Activator uses natural microbes to safely and naturally speed decomposition of yard waste.

PTFE has excellent heat, fuel, and chemical resistance and is acceptable for temperature applications between -328 degrees F (-200 degrees C) to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C). It can be used outdoors, with lubricants, hydrocarbons, acids, alkalis, detergents, alcohol, ketones, steam and refrigerants, and also has good electrical resistance. PTFE is vulnerable to high vacuum seals, low compression vacuum sealing flanges, and super-heated steam. This PTFE O-ring has a shore durometer of 55D. Shore durometer is the hardness of a material, and its resistance to permanent indentation. A higher durometer value indicates greater resistance to indentation on a scale of 0 to 100, with 100 indicating no indentation. O-rings commonly provide a pressure and fluid seal between cylindrically shaped, overlapping mating surfaces and are commonly seen in engines, faucets, flanges, valves and various cylinders. They are circular in shape, with a round cross section and a hole in the center, similar to a doughnut. O-rings are available in various sizes, and can be ordered based on required nominal inside diameter (ID), outer diameter (OD), and cross-sectional (CS) diameter.

A fascinating glimpse at the people and processes that make an art museum tick. Thomson uses the National Gallery of Art in Washington, DC, to frame her narrative, starting at 6:00 a.m. when the gallery buzzes with horticulturists hosing down trees, ""lampers"" replacing 30-foot high light bulbs, and specialists scrubbing sculpture. Ensuing chapters describe in detail the work of curators, conservators, guards, educators, designers, librarians, and other staff. The author skillfully blends tidbits of trivia with child appeal (e.g., the stairs in the East Building ""are designed to vacuum-clean the shoes of visitors"") with in-depth information, such as how a conservator uses infrared photography to restore a da Vinci. The book design mirrors this approach, alternating a series of small photographs depicting the installation of a 15-ton bronze sculpture with full-page color and black-and-white scenes of a sea of guards or the interior of a design studio. Explanations of technical vocabulary are incorporated seamlessly into the text and most of the photos have informative captions. While many of the explanations would apply to any major museum, the book begs to be used in conjunction with a field trip to Washington.

Unfired porcelain clay applied in a thin layer to a support gives a surface that is both absorbent and easily scratched. Images are created by applying and removing pigment. Ewing looks at the long history of clay-surface art and describes the nature of clay-coated surfaces. He presents a staggeringly wide range of pigment that media artists can employ on scratchboards, including graphite, colored pencils, charcoal, ink pens, watercolor, acrylic, gouache, oil, etc. Application and removal tools are equally diverse. Chapters about using India ink and color on white clay surfaces include demonstrations and exercises, and Ewing also provides extensive demonstrations of printmaking techniques such as relief, intaglio, and lithography. The book is exhaustively illustrated by a wide range of artists who have exploited the easy versatility the clay surface affords. Ewing's own work portraying horses and animals from the wild on inkboard reflects a mastery of line, form, and rhythm; his black-and-white rendition of four dancing ravens, for example, is simultaneously amusing and realistic. Any artist is sure to find a captivating technique from the wide media illustrated, each with its own unique characteristics. Although saturated with technique, the book celebrates experimentation, which is perhaps best captured in its being ""dedicated to those with a 'What if...' curiosity that always prevents them from exactly following a recipe."" --Mary Ribesky Most of us have done simple scratchboard drawings in grade school.

Volumetrics is based on ""the science of satiety""--what researchers have learned about the food choices that make people feel full. The authors teach you how to eat low-calorie-dense, high-volume foods so that you feel like you've eaten plenty, even though you've eaten fewer calories. You'll lose weight without feeling hungry or deprived. Here's an example of how volume affects eating. Raisins are dried grapes. But 100 calories of raisins fill only one-quarter cup, while 100 calories of fresh, whole grapes fill one and two-thirds cups. You'll feel satisfied after one and two-thirds cups of grapes, but if you're eating raisins, you're likely to keep filling your mouth. The point is not to stop eating raisins (or chocolate, cheese, or other high-calorie, low-volume foods), but to realize that you're likely to take in many more calories before your body tells you you're full. If you're trying to manage your weight, eating more low-density foods (lower-calorie foods that have a lot of volume) will make you feel full while you drop pounds. Barbara Rolls, a respected and well-published food-nutrition researcher at Pennsylvania State University, and food writer Robert Barnett explain energy density and how to use this concept to lose weight. They include the scientific evidence about how low-density (low-calorie, high-volume) foods make you feel satisfied, the best (and worst) foods for a satisfying, lower-calorie diet, a menu plan, an exercise plan, and environmental influences on eating. You also learn which foods are easiest to overeat.

Part 1 What Is Volumetrics? Introduction Welcome to Volumetrics, the first book to use breakthrough new research on the science of satiety to help you control your eating habits. What is satiety? It's the feeling of fullness at the end of a meal, the feeling that you are no longer hungry. The more satiety you feel after a meal, the less you'll eat at the next one. Satiety is the missing ingredient in weight management. Cut calories by simply eating less, and you'll feel hungry and deprived. You may be able to stick to such a diet for the short term, but to become successful at lifelong weight management, you'll need an eating pattern that lets you feel full with fewer calories. The primary way to do this is to get smart about your food choices. For any given level of calories, some foods will have a small effect on satiety, others a large one. The right food choices will help you control hunger and eat fewer calories, so you can lose weight, keep it off, and stay healthy.There's no secret to weight management: Consume fewer calories and burn more in physical activity. You can't lose weight without controlling calories. But you can control calories without feeling hungry. Feeling full and satisfied while eating foods you like is a critical component of our approach to weight management. The basic strategy of Volumetrics is to eat a satisfying volume of food while controlling calories and meeting nutrient requirements. The Foods You Choose Which foods should you choose? Surprisingly, foods with a high water content have a big impact on satiety. But you can't simply drink lots of water, which quenches thirst without sating hunger. You'll need to eat more foods that are naturally rich in water, such as fruits, vegetables, low-fat milk, and cooked grains, as well as lean meats, poultry, fish, and beans. It also means eating more water-rich dishes: soups, stews, casseroles, pasta with vegetables, and fruit-based desserts. On the other hand, you'll have to be very careful about foods that are very low in water: high-fat foods like potato chips, but also low-fat and fat-free foods that contain very little moisture, like pretzels, crackers, and fat-free cookies. Why is water so helpful in controlling calories? It dilutes the calories in a given amount of food. When you add water-rich blueberries to your breakfast cereal, or water-rich eggplant to your lasagna, you add food volume but few calories. You can eat more for the same calories. This property of foods'the calories in a given portion'is the core concept of this book. We call it by its scientific term, energy density. Water is only one of many food elements that affect satiety and energy density. In addition to water, fiber can be added to foods to lower the calories in a portion. It provides bulk without a lot of calories. So by strategically increasing the water and fiber content of meals'with the addition of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains you can dramatically cut the calories per portion'you lower the energy density. On the other hand, the component of foods that increases the energy density the most is fat. Fat has more than twice as many calories per portion as either carbohydrate or protein. So if you cut fat, you can lower the energy density of a meal. You can combine these strategies: Increase the water and fiber content of foods while lowering the fat content to get satisfying portions with few calories. This book is based on recent research showing how foods affect hunger and satiety, which in turn has led to new ways to manage weight. Each of the major elements that makes up food'fat, carbohydrates, protein, water'has an effect on satiety. So do other dietary components: sugar, fiber, alcohol, and sugar and fat substitutes. In the next part of the book, we explore these influences in detail so you can learn the basic principles of choosing a lower-calorie, more satisfying diet. Satisfying Portions If you've suffered through dietary deprivation to lose weight, you may find it hard to believe that you can eat more food, feel full, and still reduce your total caloric intake. To make our program work, some people, if they choose lots of foods that have only few calories in a portion, may actually have to retrain themselves to eat larger portions than they do now.We won't ask you to greatly restrict your food choices. You won't have to cut out all the fat from your diet, live on rabbit food, subsist on foods on a ""free"" list, or avoid any food. Volumetrics allows a wide choice of foods. You'll be able to eat bread, pasta, rice, beef, chicken, fish and seafood, dairy products, vegetables, and fruits. To do so while cutting calories, we'll show you how to make changes such as adding vegetables to a risotto, or choosing fruit over fat-free cookies for dessert. You'll also gain greater understanding of the kinds of foods that are deceptively easy to overeat, whether it's cheese, chocolate, raisins, or pretzels. We won't ask you to ban them. That's not our style, because it's not a style that works. Instead, we will give you specific strategies so you can enjoy them without taking in too many calories. Volumetrics is not really a diet at all, but a new way to choose satisfying, lower-calorie foods.While we emphasize lowering the energy density of your dietary pattern because that's the best way to eat a satisfying amount of food, we don't want you to get the impression that energy-dense foods are ""bad"" or ""forbidden."" Who wants to go through life without chocolate? Favorite foods, even if they are high in energy density, have a place in your dietary pattern. But you will have to plan for them. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.",books;diets & weight loss;fitness & dieting;health;other diets,5 B000KIPDZY,Dual USB AC Adapter with USB Charge Cables for PS3 10-22-2007 - Brand New Item.

In Mutual Funds: Your Money, Your Choice, a leading investment researcher (and author of one of the world's leading investment textbooks) explains exactly what individual investors must know to make the most of every investment dollar. Simply and clearlywithout complicated charts or equationsCharles P.

PrefaceMany individuals own mutual funds today. Indeed, the mutual fund industry, which reached $7 trillion in assets by 2000, comprises the bulk of many investors' financial assets, whether for retirement or taxable savings purposes. To a large extent, mutual funds are the investment vehicle for the majority of households in the United States.Mutual funds have served investors well, and their rapid growth reflects their popularity. They might continue to be as popular as ever in the future, but the situation appears to be changing. The change to date has gone almost unnoticed, and the impact is as yet small. Like a snowball rolling downhill, however, this change appears to be gaining in both speed and strength.The simple truth is there are two sides to the issue when it comes to owning mutual funds. Most investors are continually exposed to only one sidewhy they should own funds. Only now are some asking the right questions. As more and more investors assume increasing responsibility for their investments, given the sharp drops in 2000 and 2001 and the widely publicized failure of companies such as Enron, an understanding of all sides of important investing issues becomes more critical. That is what I hope to share with readers here.This change in investors' perceptions about mutual funds is occurring for two reasons. First, the warts have become more obvious. Witness the debacle in 2001 as income tax time rolled around. Many individuals discovered they had to pay taxes on the large distributions made by a number of well-known funds to shareholders for the year 2000 just as the price of their mutual fund shares was declining dramatically. Shareholders are also increasingly discovering that costs are higher, performance is worse, and safeguards are fewer than they originally thought.Second, only very recently have viable alternatives to mutual funds become available to average investors, and this has changed the game considerably. The previous situation was like voting in the Soviet Union before communism collapsedyou could vote, but there was only one candidate. Now, investors have real alternatives to mutual funds that are growing rapidly. They may very well decide to take advantage.In short, investors should consider both the pros and cons of mutual funds as well as their alternatives. If you decide to continue with traditional mutual funds, that's fine. Mutual funds have a long and solid history, they have served many investors well, and they are not going away. You can continue to build wealth in a systematic manner by owning mutual funds. By considering the issues discussed in this book, you can make much better decisions about the mutual funds you own and avoid some of the problems that can arise.However, by considering both sides of the coin, as well as newly emerging alternatives, you will be able to make more intelligent decisions. Until now, most investors have not been able to put the whole story together. They see bits and pieces, but most of the available information tends naturally to focus on the positive side. Even if investors did gain a clear understanding of both sides of mutual funds, they did not have readily available investment alternatives. Now they do!This book focuses primarily on mutual funds because of their overall importance to American investors. The objective here is not to castigate mutual funds and make them out to be the villains. Instead, I seek to fairly consider the issue of mutual fund ownership and ask the hard questions that typically do not get asked. This means examining a number of potential negatives about mutual funds-issues that investors need to be aware of. By recognizing some of the potential problems, investors can make better decisions and avoid the pitfalls.I also provide investors with the information they need to consider their alternatives. Although all of these alternatives taken together are still less important than mutual funds, they are becoming more important all the time. If you are to truly take control of your investment decisions and make sound decisions, you need to be aware of all of your alternatives and seriously consider using one or more of them when it is to your advantage.If after reading the book you can say to yourself, ""I understand the issues much better, and I think I can make intelligent decisions about my mutual funds as well as my alternatives,"" I have accomplished my goal. You will be a smarter, more successful investor. That's reward enough! PrefaceMany individuals own mutual funds today.

Challis's current relationship with journalist Tessa Kane gets put on hold after his wandering eye fixes on Janet ""Kitty"" Casement, an aerial photographer. When someone threatens Kitty's life, Challis enlists his team to probe a maze of connections involving a loan shark and a letter-writing crank known as the Meddler. As the story neatly advances from the viewpoints of characters both major and minor, Disher artfully employs misdirection to conceal the identity of the criminal targeting the photographer. Even unsympathetic figures like the Meddler and a lecherous, reactionary police officer come across as three-dimensional. While Disher is not yet in the same league as a Peter Robinson or an Ian Rankin, fans of those authors will find much to like in this dark whodunit. Agent, Jenny Darling (Australia). (July 6) Copyright Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved. Procedural fans looking for something a little different will devour this one. It's the second Detective Inspector Hal Challis mystery (originally published in the author's native Australia), and it finds Challis embroiled in another case involving murder, murder, and more murder. Disher, who has been writing crime novels for almost two decades, has the procedural form down cold, but he adds enough dark overtones to elevate the series into the Ian Rankin league. (Challis' wife, for example, is currently in prison, serving time for being an accessory to attempted murder--the intended victim being Challis himself.) Unlike Rankin's Rebus novels, or any of the other noir-tinged procedurals, the Challis tales do not take place in an urban setting. In Disher's hands, however, the rural Australian backdrop generates plenty of its own menace. Tell procedural devotees to take a break from the familiar American and British mean streets and sample a little noir under the Australian sun. David PittCopyright American Library Association.

After reviewing the topic of assessment, the authors look at library media centers to determine where and how students should be assessed and then examine assessment tools and explain a wide array of effective graphic organizers. In a flashback to excellent outcome-based learning strategies (renamed backward planning), they detail units for elementary, middle, and high schools using varied assessments, most extensively student portfolios. Finally, they discuss ways of collecting, analyzing, synthesizing, and communicating the learning to various stakeholders. Close to 100 illustrations demonstrate the many forms of assessment described. Chapters are well constructed and the writing is clear, though sticklers for style may tire of the ubiquitous organizational convention of asking/answering questions. While newer teacher-librarians may learn some of these strategies in library school, veterans should be excited at possibilities that they may never have considered, thus providing much-needed injections of clear, accessible, exciting instruction into their lives as well as those of their students.Mary R.

Focusing on the role of library media specialists in assessing student learning, this is the first full-length book written to address its practical application in the school library media center. It is an important book for school librarians to consider as they address their role as teachers in schools and the accountability issues associated with that role. It places students at the center of the assessment equation and addresses the following topics as they relate specifically to school library instructional programs: purposes of assessment, essential elements of assessment, knowing what to assess, multiple methods for assessment, and management and communication of assessment results. The book's primary audiences are library media specialists and teachers in K-12 settings. It is also relevant for other educators, who are centrally involved in K-12 programs including district, regional and state library media coordinators, building level administrators, and library school educators. The authors cull from their own 30-year careers as library practitioners, university instructors, and workshop presenters to present doable, practical methods for the library media specialist to be involved in assessing student learning.

Sir Ernest Alfred Thompson Wallis Budge (July 27, 1857 November 23, 1934) was an English Egyptologist, Orientalist, and philologist who worked for the British Museum and published numerous works on the ancient Near East. Budge was was a strong proponent of liberal Christianity and was devoted to comparative religions. He is well known for translating The Egyptian Book of The Dead and analyzing many of the practices of Egyptian religion and language. Budge's works were widely read by the educated public and among those seeking comparative ethnological data, including James Frazer. Under Budge's directorship, the British Museum came to hold arguably the best collection of Ancient Near East artifacts in the world, allowing the British and other Western publics to enjoy and learn from these significant civilizations that were distant in both time and space from their own lives, broadening their horizons and advancing our understanding that humankind can unite as one extended human family throughout the world.

Amelia helps her father keep the light and her mother keep the house, but she cannot keep their marriage together. Newbery Medal recipient Karen Hesse (Out of the Dust) cleverly personifies the conflict between North and South, abolitionist and secessionist, Union and Confederacy in the troubled marriage of Amelia's parents. Amelia watches, powerless, as the relationship disintegrates: ""I feel as if I am the Light in my family. I must keep my hope burning, so that Father and Mother, even in the darkness that seems to engulf them, might find their way back."" The broken marriage provides a powerful example of the way the Civil War tore apart families and friendships. Girls will thrill to Amelia's descriptions of her tomboyish responsibilities as lighthouse keeper and family breadwinner, her burgeoning love affair with a local boy, and her friendship with her abolitionist uncle. While some of the language and details seem anachronistic, Hesse has crafted a remarkably elegant tale of ""girl as emotional beacon,"" tirelessly watching as her world crashes on the shoals. (Ages 9 and older) --Claire Dederer Grade 4-8-This diary chronicles 15-year-old Amelia Martin's chaotic life during the turbulent first year of the Civil War. Amelia's father is the assistant lighthouse keeper at Fenwick Island off the coast of southern Delaware. Amelia willingly shares in the duties of standing watch and maintaining the equipment. Through her diary, readers learn that her father sides with the Union while her mother favors the Confederacy, and that their marriage is crumbling just as the country threatens to divide. Amelia admits that while at one time she agreed with her mother's views, she now believes in the abolition of slavery and sympathizes with President Lincoln. When a friend drowns in a skating accident, Amelia becomes friendly with his brother, Daniel, and soon develops a romantic relationship that continues to grow after Daniel volunteers for the Union Army. In the style of light keepers' logs, each entry records the date, weather, and wind conditions. An appended historical note offers more information about the Civil War.

Pearl Zane Grey (January 31, 1872 October 23, 1939) was an American author best known for his popular adventure novels and stories that presented an idealized image of the American frontier. Riders of the Purple Sage (1912) was his best-selling book. --This text refers to an alternate Paperback edition. Chapter ILate in June the vast northwestern desert of wheat began to take on a tinge of gold, lending an austere beauty to that endless, rolling, smooth world of treeless hills, where miles of fallow ground and miles of waving grain sloped up to the far-separated homes of the heroic men who had conquered over sage and sand.These simple homes of farmers seemed lost on an immensity of soft gray and golden billows of land, insignificant dots here and there on distant hills, so far apart that nature only seemed accountable for those broad squares of alternate gold and brown, extending on and on to the waving horizonline. A lonely, hard, heroic country, where flowers and fruit were not, nor birds and brooks, nor green pastures. Whirling strings of dust looped up over fallow ground, the short, dry wheat lay back from the wind, the haze in the distance was drab and smoky, heavy with substance.A thousand hills lay bare to the sky, and half of every hill was wheat and half was fallow ground; and all of them, with the shallow valleys between, seemed big and strange and isolated. The beauty of them was austere, as if the hand of man had been held back from making green his home site, as if the immensity of the task had left no time for youth and freshness. Years, long years, were there in the round-hilled, many-furrowed gray old earth. And the wheat looked a century old. Here and there a straight, dusty road stretched from hill to hill, becoming a thin white line, to disappear in the distance. The sun shone hot, the wind blew hard; and over the boundless undulating expanse hovered a shadow that was neither hood of dust nor hue of gold. It was not physical, but lonely, waiting, prophetic, and weird. No wild desert of wastelands, once the home of other races of man, and now gone to decay and death, could have shown so barren an acreage. Half of this wandering patchwork of squares was earth, brown and gray, curried and disked, and rolled and combed and harrowed, with not a tiny leaf of green in all the miles. The other half had only a faint golden promise of mellow harvest; and at long distance it seemed to shimmer and retreat under the hot sun. A singularly beautiful effect of harmony lay in the long, slowly rising slopes, in the rounded hills, in the endless curving lines on all sides. The scene was heroic because of the labor of horny hands; it was sublime because not a hundred harvests, nor three generations of toiling men, could ever rob nature of its limitless space and scorching sun and sweeping dust, of its resistless age-long creep back toward the desert that it had been.* * *Here was grown the most bounteous, the richest and finest wheat in all the world. Strange and unfathomable that so much of the bread of man, the staff of life, the hope of civilization in this tragic year 1917, should come from a vast, treeless, waterless, dreary desert!This wonderful place was an immense valley of considerable altitude called the Columbia Basin, surrounded by the Cascade Mountains on the west, the Cur d' Alene and Bitter Root Mountains on the east, the Okanozan range to the north, and the Blue Mountains to the south. The valley floor was basalt, from the lava flow of volcanoes in ages past. The rainfall was slight except in the foot-hills of the mountains. The Columbia River, making a prodigious and meandering curve, bordered on three sides what was known as the Bend country. South of this vast area, across the range, began the fertile, many-watered region that extended on down into verdant Oregon. Among the desert hills of this Bend country, near the center of the Basin, where the best wheat was raised, lay widely separated little towns, the names of which gave evidence of the mixed population. It was, of course, an exceedingly prosperous country, a fact manifest in the substantial little towns, if not in the crude and unpretentious homes of the farmers. The acreage of farms ran from a section, six hundred and forty acres, up into the thousands.* * *Upon a morning in early July, exactly three months after the United States had declared war upon Germany, a sturdy young farmer strode with darkly troubles face from the presence of his father. At the end of a stormy scene he had promised his father that he would abandon his desire to enlist in the army.Kurt Dorn walked away from the gray old clapboard house, out to the fence, where he leaned on the gate. He could see for miles in every direction, and to the southward, away on a long yellow slope, rose a stream of dust from a motor-car.""Must be Anderson--coming to dun father,"" muttered young Dorn.This was the day, he remembered, when the wealthy rancher of Ruxton was to look over old Chris Dorn's wheat-fields. Dorn owed thirty-thousand dollars and the interest for years, mostly to Anderson. Kurt hated the debt and resented the visit, but he could not help acknowledging that the rancher had been lenient and kind. Long since Kurt had sorrowfully realized that his father was illiterate, hard, grasping, and growing worse with the burden of years.""If we had rain now--or soon--that section of Bluestem would square father,"" soliloquized young Dorn, as with keen eyes he surveyed a vast field of wheat, short, smooth, yellowing in the sun. But the cloudless sky, the haze of heat rather betokened a continued drought.There were reasons, indeed, for Dorn to wear a dark and troubled face as he watched the motor-car speed along ahead of its stream of dust, pass out of sight under the hill, and soon reappear, to turn off the main road and come toward the house. It was a big, closed car, covered with dust. The driver stopped it at the gate and got out.""Is this Chris Dorn's farm?"" he asked.""Yes,"" replied Kurt.Whereupon the door of the car opened and out stepped a short, broad man in a long linen coat.""Come out, Lenore, an' shake off the dust,"" he said, and he assisted a young woman to step out. She also wore a long linen coat, and a veil besides. The man removed his coat and threw it into the car. Then he took off his sombrero to beat the dust off of that.""Phew! The Golden Valley never seen dust like this in a million years!I'm chokin' for water. An' listen to the car. She's boilin'!""Then, as he stepped toward Kurt, the rancher showed himself to be a well-preserved man of perhaps fifty-five, of powerful form beginning to sag in the broad shoulders, his face bronzed by long exposure to wind and sun. He had keen gray eyes, and their look was that of a man used to dealing with his kind and well disposed toward them.""Hello! Are you young Dorn?"" he asked.""Yes, sir,"" replied Kurt, stepping out.""I'm Anderson, from Ruxton, come to see your dad. This is my girl Lenore.""Kurt acknowledged the slight bow from the veiled young woman, and then, hesitating, he added, ""Won't you come in?""""No, not yet. I'm chokin' for air an' water. Bring us a drink,"" replied Anderson.Kurt hurried away to get a bucket and tin cup. As he drew water from the well he was thinking rather vaguely that it was somehow embarrassing--the fact of Mr. Anderson being accompanied by his daughter. Kurt was afraid of his father. But then, what did it matter? When he returned to the yard he found the rancher sitting in the shade of one of the few apple-trees, and the young lady was standing near, in the act of removing bonnet and veil. She had thrown the linen coat over the seat of an old wagon-bed that lay near.""Good water is scarce here, but I'm glad we have some,"" said Kurt; then as he set down the bucket and offered a brimming cupful to the girl he saw her face, and his eyes met hers. He dropped the cup and stared. Then hurriedly, with flushing face, he bent over to recover and refill it.""Ex-excuse me. I'm--clumsy,"" he managed to say, and as he handed the cup to her he averted his gaze. For more than a year the memory of this very girl had haunted him. He had seen her twice--the first time at the close of his one year of college at the University of California, and the second time on the street in Spokane. In a glance he had recognized the strong, lithe figure, the sunny hair, the rare golden tint of her complexion, the blue eyes, warm and direct. And he had sustained a shock which momentarily confused him.""Good water, hey?"" dissented Anderson, after drinking a second cup. ""Boy that's wet, but it ain't water to drink. Come down in the foot-hills an' I'll show you. My ranch's called 'Many Waters,' an' you can't keep your feet dry.""""I wish we had some of it here,"" replied Kurt, wistfully, and he waved a hand at the broad, swelling slopes. The warm breath that blew in from the wheatlands felt dry and smelled dry.""You're in for a dry spell?"" inquired Anderson, with interest that was keen, and kindly as well.""Father says so. And I fear it, too--for he never makes a mistake in weather or crops.""""A hot, dry spell!This summer?Hum!Boy, do you know that wheat is the most important thing in the world to-day?""""You mean on account of the war,"" replied Kurt. ""Yes, I know. But father doesn't see that. All he sees is--if we have rain we'll have bumper crops. That big field there would be a record--at war prices.And he wouldn't be ruined!""""Ruined?Oh, he means I'd close on himHum!Say, what do you see in a big wheat yield--if it rains?""""Mr. Anderson, I'd like to see our debt paid, but I'm thinking most of wheat for starving peoples. I--I've studied this wheat question. It's the biggest question in this war.""Kurt had forgotten the girl and was unaware of her eyes bent steadily upon him. Anderson had roused to the interest of wheat, and to a deeper study of the young man.""Say, Dorn, how old are you?"" he asked.""Twenty-four. And Kurt's my first name,"" was the reply.""Will this farm fall to you?""""Yes, if my father does not lose it.""""Hum!Old Dorn won't lost it, never fear. He raises the best wheat in this section.""""But father never owned the land. We have had three bad years. If the wheat fails this summer--we lose the land, that's all.""""Are you an--American?"" queried Anderso... --This text refers to the Mass Market Paperback edition. Jim Gough is the perfect reader for this story of a young Washington wheat farmer, torn between love and the urge to defend America against Germany in WWI. Gough's precise but casual performance emphasizes Grey's message, the permanence of the earth, stars, and the annual wheat crop, the impermanence of material things.

But another shock awaits Juliet in a letter her mother wrote shortly before she died. It seems that the man Juliet always called Da was not her real father; instead, Juliet is the child of an American pilot her mother met during the war. There's no mention of the man's name, and the letter only reveals that Daisy met him at an air base ""somewhere in Suffolk."" It's not even clear whether he survived the war. The only clues enclosed with the letter are a sketchbook and a photograph showing a bomber crew standing by an airplane. At first, Juliet wants to forget the whole thing, but eventually she decides to search for her father. The hunt takes her from decaying air bases in the English countryside to sunny California. Mayhew is a gifted storyteller in the tradition of Pilcher and Binchy, and her latest is a charismatic combination of wartime drama, historical saga, and contemporary romance.

Its radiance, its ability to project sound without being metallic, comes to the fore both in arco and pizzicato. Other advantages are Dominant's effortless response to intricate fingering and its tuning stability even under extreme atmospheric conditions. But Dominant's beauty of tone is not as long lasting as that of a steel string, a price the discerning musician will be prepared to pay for this quality of sound.

Caperberries resemble a large elongated grape with white stripes. Mustapha's caperberries are brine-cured in vinegar and salt, providing a somewhat tangy and nutty taste, which is not as strong or flavorful as a caper - their texture is often reminiscent of a cornichon. It has a much less intense flavor than a caper. They are preserved in water, vinegar, and salt. Caperberries can be eaten like olives; in fact, they can make an interesting alternative in a martini. Use these crunchy, mildly tangy Moroccan caperberries in salads, antipasto, or tapas. They are great accompaniments to cheese or ham. Their flavor tends to be a bit more ""pickle-like"" with a tangy, slightly sour flavor. Caper bushes are indigenous to the Mediterranean region, but they do very well anywhere that has dry heat and intense sunlight. They grow wild around the Mediterranean, flourishing in the same climates as olives, and in fact, we have come to recognize the flavor of a caper as classic Mediterranean.

Beginning in the 1970s, he honed his lightning-fast chops performing bluegrass, then moved on to contemporary jazz and fusion sounds. With this album, he broadens his horizons once again by performing an entire program of classical music transcriptions. Reminiscent of classical guitar albums by John Williams (who makes a guest appearance here), the disc traverses a wide range of repertoire--from Chopin mazurkas to Bach's Two and Three Part Inventions. Throughout, Fleck displays a feathery touch on his banjo, and his instrument offers a pleasant, brassy tone with very little twang. The technique he displays on Perpetual Motion is astounding and a refreshing change of pace from the smooth grooves found on the banjoist's Flecktones recordings. The arrangements are generally minimalist and understated, but violinist Joshua Bell, bassist Edgar Meyer, mandolinist Chris Thile, and percussionist Evelyn Glennie join in on this groundbreaking disc. Bluegrass purists may be disappointed (this is a far cry from the free-spirited, folksy abandon found on Sony's Short Trip Home and Appalachian Journey CDs), but classical fans will be astounded by how perfectly natural Fleck's banjo sounds on these works. --Jason Verlinde",classical;country;jazz;music;rock,5 B0001WBIEY,"Ontario 6145 Military Machete (Black) The Ontario Knife Company has been manufacturing the 1-18 Machete under U.S. Government specifications for over 60 years.

Klezmer warhorses such as ""The Russian Shers"" and ""Sirba"" are infused with all the nervous energy Krakauer and his red-hot ensemble can muster. Mark Stewart's electric guitar and Ted Reichman's accordion seem to fit perfectly into these wild jazz arrangements, while Kevin Norton's light-and-fast attack on the drums holds the group together. This isn't music for the faint of heart. The title track doesn't just swing, it erupts into a mind-boggling frenzy of clarinet, guitar, and drums. Other tunes simmer with equal power; rootsy intros segue into swirling clarinet solos that snowball with intensity.

It features two bowls--one medium and one large--to help you keep clean and dirty dishes separate while offering plenty of room for oversize pots and pans. And Kohler's innovative Smart Divide barrier makes it easy to wash and rinse large items while still keeping the two basins separate.

One of only a few plumbing manufacturer who produce cast iron products in the United States, Kohler protects the Langlade with a limited lifetime warranty. And the enameled cast iron has a smooth, non-porous surface, which makes it very easy to clean. The softer contours of the Iron/Tones collection not only provide a great look, but also improve overall sink cleanliness as there are no sharp corners to trap dirt or other debris. It comes with no faucet holes, and it has a basin depth of 9 inches. This Iron/Tones sink measures 33 x 18-3/4 inches (LxW) when used in self-rimming applications, and it measures 30-5/16 x 16-1/16 inches (LxW) for undercounter applications. Easy Handling with Smart Divide Kohler's Smart Divide kitchen sinks feature dividers that are half the height of those found in conventional double-basin sinks, giving you the best of both worlds--the openness of a single basin combined with the divided functionality of a double basin. You'll be able to completely soak cookie sheets and other large pots and pans that typical double-basin sinks could not accommodate without losing the ability to multitask projects like washing and rinsing dishes. And you can easily transfer large pots and pans across sink basins without making a mess--and keeping the water where it belongs. With typical double-basin sink dividers, the clearance between the faucet and dividers is minimal, and placing larger pots and pans between the two can result in damage to both the faucet and the sink's finish. But with Smart Divide being just half the height, you'll get optimal clearance.

Dispirited, she heads home, only to find herself in a situation in which she is able to rescue Jenny's little brother in a very unprincesslike way.

They were unaware of one anothers existence until they passed through a portal and began living the others life. This second title finds the teens still caught in the wrong realities, but they now are repeatedly transported to yet another reality in the mid-1940s, when their family home is inhabited by the Underwoods of two generations past. In this reality, they witness their grandfather and his siblings as children, and Alaric is presented with the opportunity to prevent his great-uncles untimely death. The small eternities are closed segments of time in history that continue on forever, unchanging. Throughout the book, Alaric, Naia, and the mysterious vagrant Aldous make numerous forays into an assortment of small eternities, each time witnessing an alternative reality. In a similar vein of William Sleators The Last Universe (Abrams, 2005), this thought-provoking novel explores the uncertainty of destiny and chance and its impact upon peoples lives. The myriad realities result in a somewhat convoluted story line, and readers may find themselves flipping back through the pages in order to clarify details or events. However, the payoff is well worth the effort in this complex story of metaphysics and fate.Debbie Lewis ODonnell, Alachua County Library District, Gainesville, FL Copyright Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc.

Lawrence's follow-up to A Crack in the Line (2004) picks up the story four months after Alaric and Naia Underwood switch places and become trapped in their parallel realities, as summer rains flood the land surrounding their home, Withern Rise. Alaric, now living in Naia's world, where his mother survived the train wreck, is ecstatic to have her back. Naia, in Alaric's sad reality, is struggling with grief over her mother's death. Sometimes together and sometime apart, the teens travel to alternate times in the history of Withern Rise, and in 1945, they meet their relative Aldous Underwood as a young boy, just days before his death. Tension mounts as Alaric realizes his intrusion into this ""small eternity"" of time causes Aldous' death, and he tries to make amends.

Whey proteins also have proportionately more sulfur-containing amino acids and contain a relative surplus of a variety of essential amino acids.

It was assembled from the same recording sessions at Lynn Bridges' Atlanta home that produced 57 tracks. Thirty-two were chosen for the two albums. Some were overdubbed minimally in New York by Young God label boss Michael Gira and Devendra Banhart adding a nip of keyboard or harmonica here, and tucked in horn, backing vocal, or electric guitar there. What these songs showcase is that Banhart is a songwriter of guileless vision. His unaffected aesthetic is etched in the ether of mysterious traditional and psychedelic folk musics from the British Isle and in an America that disappeared the first time in the '30s with the Dust Bowl and for the second time in the grimness of mid-'70s determinism in the shadows of post-Vietnam shame and malaise. Banhart's songs don't hearken back so much as remind us of what we no longer possess as a culture. His songs are spiritual, terminally unhip, with labyrinthine grown-up melodies and the keen unsullied wisdom of children. These 16 songs include the mysterious minor key cipher that is ""A Ribbon,"" with its eerie guitars, a beautifully etched chorus, and an all but hidden keyboard underscoring the quietly insistent vocal. His cover of Ella Jenkins' ""Little Sparrow,"" opens the album; accompanied only by his acoustic guitar, Banhart transfers the song from the universe of its origin as childhood ballad to a bluesy exhortation to spiritual awakening. A slow, easy major chord stroll, ""We All Know,"" with its delightfully ridiculous lyric (""...we belong to the floating hand that was made by animals/we dance so, we let go/we'll remove clothes and we'll trade lobes....""). Seamlessly it shifts and walks the edge of a vaudeville rag that comes complete with accompanying trombones in the chorus at the end. And speaking of rags, there's the nocturnal spiritual guitar blues of ""My Ships"" that recalls the Rev. Gary Davis illustrating the point that Banhart confines himself to no one terrain, no single point of origin or destination. For Banhart, writing a song is one discovery -- give a listen to ""At the Hop"" written with Andy Cabic with its bright, canny, gorgeously impure love poetry -- and recording is another. Combining them is yet a third for both performer and listener. Like its companion recording, Ni o Rojo is about the shared delight of new encounters with music and language and is an adventure in the hearing. ~ Thom Jurek, Rovi",alternative rock;folk;music;pop;rock,5 0966731255,"Moon Power Starguide 2000; Universal Guidance and Predictions Like Nostradamus, Dr. Turi was born in Provence, France.

Direct, intense, tribal, cathartic and even hallucinogen, Spirit strikes with the force of a band which handles masterly the ingredients of the most unorthodox post-rock, late post-punk and, of course, psychedelia in ten songs which do not leave any doubts: this is one of the debuts of 2006. APSE consist of five lads from the East Coast who have been playing together with slight changes in line-up-during the last 7 years, creating one of the most serious and inspired sounds today: the nerve of slowcore, bits of post-rock dynamics and avant-garde perceptions; beauty, darkness and tension. They showcase a solid, potent and mature musical sense with influences spanning Classical compositions, Slint, Joy Division/New Order, and The Cure to the first Sonic Youth noise adventures, ambient music and a wide range of post-punk.

Sara and Hannah, two of the three Cisco triplets, are perturbed that their hubbies are coming home later and later, and immediately become convinced that they're having affairs. The truth? Hapless Zack and Joel have bought an expensive boat to sail around the world and are afraid to tell their wives. Sonia, wife of third triplet Sam, has just left her husbandwhy? He's not ready to start a family, and she's accidentally pregnant. Does she simply tell him? Of course not. The six lovebirds bumble around misunderstanding each other against the backdrop of cozy, homey Larkspur, Pa., where neighbors help the triplets' grandmother rebuild her tornado-destroyed home. The flimsy premise and artificial drama suck all the charm out of the story, and while Michaels's devoted fans might pick it up out of habit, this soggy tale will frustrate most. Copyright Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. Michaels revisits the Cisco family--famous candy company owners and denizens of a small town in Pennsylvania. Loretta, the matriarch, and her beau, Ezra, are lucky enough to survive a surprise tornado that flattens her family home. The close-knit community quickly pulls together to aid everyone who was affected, but Loretta, who is usually levelheaded and commonsensical, has a difficult time getting over the loss of her things. Her worries are multiplied when the grandchildren she raised, the triplets Sam, Hannah, and Sara, appear to have troubles of their own that they are unwilling to share with her. All three have recently married, and all three are experiencing marital difficulties. Sam's wife has disappeared, and Sara and Hannah are certain their doctor husbands are having affairs. But there's a larger issue: the ""Trips"" were raised as one unit, and they're not used to needing anyone but each other. Their predicament is explored in the same winning and humorous manner the ever-popular Michaels always employs in her believable and highly entertaining tales.

Chapter OneOne Month Later""It's hard to believe Halloween has come and gone already."" Loretta Cisco, founder and recently retired CEO of Cisco Candies who was known as Cisco to her family, opened the screen door to let the dogs out. Freddie, a golden retriever, barked to let his partner, Hugo, know it was time to get a move on. It was the same thing as saying the breakfast bacon will still be there when we get back. Hugo, a black Lab, bolted through the door. Ezra Danford, a tall, robust man, and Cisco's live-in companion, as well as partner, turned from the stove where he was making blueberry pancakes, Cisco's favorite breakfast. ""I know what you mean, Loretta."" He insisted on calling her by her given name, saying the pet name Cisco was just for her son and her grandchildren, the triplets, to use. ""In a few weeks we'll be out there raking the last of the leaves and bringing in firewood. Then before you know it, the holidays will be here.""Cisco tugged at the apron she was wearing. ""Time moves too fast when you're old, and we're old, Ezra. I dearly love the holidays, as you well know, but in another way they're sad because it means another year is coming to a close. You and I, my dear, also have an anniversary coming up. If the Trips,"" she said, referring to her triplet grandchildren, ""hadn't brought you here that special Christmas almost three years ago, I might never have gotten to know you. For that, I will be eternally grateful.""Ezra expertly flipped a pancake, then turned the strips of bacon to the other side. ""We should get married, Loretta."" He winked at her, hoping she would get flustered and say yes.Cisco adjusted the glasses perched on the end of her nose before she gave her colorful apron another hitch. ""No, Ezra, we shouldn't get married. You had a wife, and I had a husband. When we depart this world, you're going with your wife, and I'm going with my husband. That's the way it has to be. Otherwise, your children and grandchildren will have a problem, as will mine. They won't know where to put us. ""We've talked about this a hundred times, Ezra. Why are you bringing it up again today? The relationship we have right now is working just fine for both of us. You know what happens when you tamper with something that doesn't need tampering with."" Cisco took her place at the table, the dogs' plates in her hands. Her gaze was drawn to the kitchen window. ""Is it my imagination, Ezra, or does it look yellow outside?""A puzzled look on his face, the man, who was as big as a bear, walked to the old screen door and opened it. It did look yellow outside. His eyes narrowed slightly. ""Loretta, turn on the television or radio and let's hear the weather report. There might be a fire somewhere. I don't hear the birds either. It's much too quiet,"" he said, peering into the distance. ""I know it's autumn, but it's strange. The winter birds love to nest in your old sycamore and sing to us every morning when we have breakfast. Some bad weather might be on the way."" He called both dogs to come indoors.""Are they saying anything on the TV?"" Ezra walked out onto the back porch and looked around. The air was yellow as far as he could see. He stepped back in and looked at Cisco questioningly as the dogs whined at her feet.Cisco poured syrup on her pancakes. ""They haven't said a thing. We'll keep it on while we eat in case a bulletin comes in. We can't have bad weather today. The family is coming, and we're picnicking under the sycamore. A nice, long, lazy Sunday to enjoy having everyone here with us. It will probably be our last outdoor get-together before the cold weather sets in. There simply cannot be any bad weather today. I won't allow it,"" she said lightly.Ezra ate quickly, something he never did. He loved food and always took his time when eating, enjoying every mouthful. When he finished, he picked up the dogs' plates and his own and stacked them in the dishwasher before he walked back to the door to stare at the yellow world outside the house.He moved then, quicker than lightning. ""Hurry, Loretta. I want you and the dogs to go down to the root cellar. I can't be certain about this, but the only time in my life that I saw a world of yellow was when I lived in Arkansas, and a tornado whipped through. Hurry now.""Cisco needed no second urging. She dumped her dishes in the dishwasher and herded the dogs down the cellar steps. ""What are you going to do, Ezra?""""Lock up, crack some of the windows. I'll be down in a minute. Take care of the dogs. Go to the southwest corner of the root cellar. Maybe I'm wrong, Loretta. It's better to be safe than sorry.""Cisco was at the bottom of the steps when she heard the sound. She knew instantly what it was. ""Never mind the doors, Ezra, get down here. Now!"" Ezra was at the bottom of the steps the minute she finished speaking. The dogs whined and whimpered as Cisco led them down three more steps to the root cellar, where she kept her winter vegetables. The door was stout, with iron bars crisscrossing it from top to bottom.The sound overhead increased in volume until it sounded like a hundred jet airplanes breaking the sound barrier. Ezra and Cisco clung together, their old bodies trembling as they tried to comfort one another and the dogs at the same time.And then it was deathly quiet. The dogs yipped once, then were quiet.Ezra struggled with the iron bars holding the door in place. When he finally got the door open, he was looking at the cellar staircase and nothing else. He could see the sky, the backyard, and the old sycamore. He tested the steps to make sure they were sturdy before he allowed Cisco and the dogs to climb them. He went first, ascending the steps carefully.He looked around in stunned amazement. It was all gone, every last wall and window. What looked like half of the roof was on top of the barn, which itself was leaning drunkenly to the side. There was no sign of Cisco's car or his pickup truck.Ezra's voice sounded choked. ""This house was in the direct path, Loretta. It's all gone. Look up the hill; my house is still standing.""""It can't be gone, Ezra, it just can't,"" Cisco insisted as she looked around. She started to cry. Freddie hugged her leg, not understanding what was going on. Hugo pawed Ezra's leg for the big man to comfort him. ""My whole life was here in this little house, Ezra. All the Trips' belongings were here as well as my son's from the day they were born. How can I ever replace them? Oh, Ezra, this is the worst thing that's ever happened to me. It's worse than when my son stuck me in that assisted-living facility. At least I could close my eyes and picture this beloved little house of mine. How can it all be gone, Ezra? How?""All Ezra could do was put his arm around her shoulder, and murmur, ""I don't know, Loretta. I just don't know. Careful, watch your step now. Let's take a walk around. Maybe we can salvage something.""""I'm too old to start over, Ezra. Do you see my kitchen table anywhere? I started Cisco Candies in my kitchen on that old table. I kept the Trips' bassinet in the kitchen because it was the warmest room in the house during the winter. I diapered Jonathan there, too. Oh, God, how did this happen?"" She looked around wildly as she staggered from one place to another, hoping to find something that belonged to her.Ezra's voice was gentle, soothing, when he said, ""You can rebuild the house and barn, Loretta. A good contractor can have it built for you by Christmas if the weather holds. I wouldn't be surprised if the whole town turns out to rebuild for you because you moved Cisco Candies here from New York City and provide employment for so many of the people in town. We can stay at my house while the building is going on. I know that's not what you want to hear, but it's the only consolation I can give you right now.""Cisco gave no indication she could hear what he was saying. Instead, her gaze raked the yard, hoping to see something from the house. She hated the way she was feeling, hated the tears rolling down her wrinkled cheeks. Her voice was a whisper when she said, ""Where do I go to get my memories back? I need to touch my things. I need to see them."" She picked up the hem of her apron and wiped at her eyes. ""Why, Ezra, why?""Ezra wrapped his arms around her, his eyes full of sadness.

Rappers do it with hyperactive dance beats and lots of attitude, but Laurie Anderson does it by relaxing our defenses with her soothing telephone-operator voice, her hypnotic synth patterns, and droning organ washes. Once she has lured us into her aural lair, she trips us up with broken syntax and disconnected sentence fragments. Bright Red's producer is Brian Eno, an astute choice, for no one does ambient backdrops better. By themselves, these atmospheric harmonies are mere background music, Anderson's spoken monologues nothing more than bohemian stand-up comedy. When the two elements click, however, the result is some of the most original pop music around. As always, what saves Anderson from smug self-indulgence is her wicked sense of humor and her genuine sense of dread. --Geoffrey Himes Bright Red by Laurie AndersonThis product is manufactured on demand using CD-R recordable media.

Buna-nitrile can have high tensile strength, and abrasion, tear, and compression set resistance. It can be used in temperatures between -30 degrees F (-34 degrees C) to 250 degrees F (121 degrees C), and is compatible for use with petroleum, HFA, HFB and HFC fluids, vegetable oil, alcohol, acids and aliphatic hydrocarbons. Buna-nitrile is vulnerable to acetone, ethers, esters, ozone, sunlight and weathering and should therefore not be used in ozone-generating electric motors, welding equipment, or in applications with exposure to UV light. This Buna O-ring has a shore durometer of 70A. Shore durometer is the hardness of a material, and its resistance to permanent indentation. A higher durometer value indicates greater resistance to indentation on a scale of 0 to 100, with 100 indicating no indentation. O-rings commonly provide a pressure and fluid seal between cylindrically shaped, overlapping mating surfaces and are commonly seen in engines, faucets, flanges, valves, and various cylinders. They are circular in shape, with a round cross section, and a hole in the center, similar to a doughnut. O-rings are available in various sizes, and can be ordered based on required nominal inside diameter (ID), outer diameter (OD), and cross-sectional (CS) diameter.

He has missed a blend of contemporary urban pop and traditional gospel music with an over glazing of God's Word for the enjoyment of the believer and for the heart changing of those seeking. Throughout the intergenerational mlange of lyrics and musical style, the ""If It's Right"" album is, both, dedicated and passionate praise to Jesus-God: our King eternal. This collection of songs illuminates the hope and expectation that mankind can find through the grace of Jesus Christ. Over the past ten years Bishop Omega has written more than 225 songs. Performing with ""Glorious Hope"" (a choral ensemble composed of members from various choirs within the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ), he resonates the message that transcends barriers and builds up souls. As a musician Bishop Omega was trained in the clarinet, alto saxophone and keyboards. (Most of his musical creation is done on the keyboards.) As Bishop of the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ of the Apostolic Faith, he made a deliberate effort to reach more of the public audience (especially the youth). He understood that his music-if it was to serve as a viable medium-would have to excite sustained interest. Thus, the ""If It's Right"" project was born. Bishop Omega has added a ministry of love and humanitarian largess. He offers the hope of the Gospel message in conjunction with the practical demonstration of it. His ubiquitous goal is to edify.

The white rat turns out to be Zylas, a resident of a world called Barakhai, where half of one's life must be spent in animal form. It's a lesson that Collins learns too late, after his hunger and Boy Scout training lead him to kill, butcher, cook and eat an incredibly tame rabbit. When he's immediately arrested and imprisoned, he finds out that his dinner was not just a rabbit but Joetha, a ""sweet old woman."" Charged with the capital crime of cannibalism, he faces hanging the next morning. But in a far from unexpected twist, he's rescued, since he's been lured to Barakhai for a reason that won't be accomplished if he's dead. Zylas the rat/man and Falima the horse/woman, among others, need his help in their struggle against Barakhai's rulers, who are the only residents of the world who don't switch form. In a meeting with a dragon/woman, Prinivere, Collins learns that this switching of forms is actually an ancient curse and only the theft of a magic stone can save them from their dual existence. Reichert, who raises livestock on her 40-acre Iowa farm, treats the reader to a credible and well-executed escape. Fans of light fantasy and animal rightists will eagerly await further volumes in the series. Copyright 2001 Cahners Business Information, Inc. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. Graduate student Benton Collins chases a runaway lab rat into another universe, peopled by a race of shape-shifting humans. When he runs afoul of their laws, he faces certain death until a few rebel natives rescue him and enlist his aid in overthrowing the tyrannical rulers of their world. This series opener by the author of the popular Renshai Chronicles novels features an ingenuous hero and a cast of wise-cracking, good-hearted characters in a story of high adventure and gentle humor. A good choice for most fantasy collections. Copyright 2001 Reed Business Information, Inc. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. The first of the Books of Barakhai is an interesting variation on the theme of a mundane human pulled into what may be loosely termed Faerie. Most of the people in Barakhai are involuntary shapeshifters, forced to spend half their lives in animal form. The members of the ruling elite have arranged to spend their lives entirely in human form and over the centuries have parlayed that distinction into a near monopoly of power. One of the shapeshifters, in the form of a laboratory rat, lures Ben, a biology student, to Barakhai in the hope that he can help redress the situation. It doesn't help that hope that, before Ben finds out what is going on, he kills and eats a rabbit, thereby earning himself a death sentence for cannibalism. To considerably understate the truth, Reichert knows her animals. She is also no slouch at narrative technique, and shows ingenuity and originality in setting up a situation that promises her best work in some while in future Books of Barakhai.

When Trish asks her friend Insp. Caro Lyalt for help, she learns that Caro is in need of her aid as well. An informant has told Caro that a candidate for a job for which she's also vying has organized crime connections. The murder of Caro's informant catapults Trish deeper into Caro's case and Trish's 11-year-old half-brother, David, into danger. Putting at risk her seven-year relationship with boyfriend George Henton, a prominent solicitor, the smart, caring and driven Trish delves for information and puts together all the pieces for a satisfying conclusion. Copyright Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved. Cooper gives us a double narrative and widened perspective in the seventh installment of the Trish Maguire series: that of barrister Maguire and her close friend, police inspector Caro Lyalt. They both face complicated professional lives that spiral into real danger. It begins with a libel action: a writer who has published a book about the terrorist action that resulted in a busload of children being blown up 30 years ago is sued for libel by a prominent politician, a new member of the House of Lords, who believes he has been identified as one of the terrorists. The writer seeks Maguire's help. Inspector Lyalt is also up against a possible defamation charge. Her rival for a police post may be connected to the Slabbs, a powerful London crime family. An intriguing thriller, as barrister and police inspector battle their biases to try to uncover the truth, even as the action intensifies with a mob killing.

Gagged & BoundChapter 1Monday 12 MarchTrish's concentration slipped, as though one tooth of a cog had snapped off and let the wheel clunk past its stop. She was back in London after winning a two-week case in the Cayman Islands, and her usual pallor had turned faintly gold in the Caribbean sun.The words on the page in front of her blended into a grey fuzz as her vision blurred. Once she would have been ashamed of the lapse. Now she gave herself permission to enjoy the moment and looked up to watch the shifting patterns of light and shade on the wall opposite her desk.Last night's storm had died down, but there was still enough wind to agitate the trees outside in the Temple. It was their thrashing branches that broke the sunlight into these lemon-yellow lozenges, and sent them flickering across the walls of 1 Plough Court, the chambers of Antony Shelley, QC.It was a good set, consisting of eight other Queen's Counsel and twenty-five junior barristers, a handful of pupils and three clerks. They specialised in company and commercial law, fraud, judicial review and family cases. Few straightforward criminal briefs came their way these days, although there were still one or two generalists in chambers to field those that did. Trish had arrived as an anxious but determined pupil seventeen years ago, and she'd never left. Now she was one ofthe most senior juniors, with a rising reputation and an income to match.Opposite her desk Nessa Fortway, her own pupil, was working diligently, inky fingers stuffed through her short fringe and full lower lip caught between her teeth. She'd been with Trish only three months, but already she was useful: hardworking, intelligent and apparently unfazed by any of the egos that competed so noisily around them at the English Bar.She'll make a good lawyer, Trish thought, and a useful member of chambers if she's as good on her feet in court as she is at preparation and paperwork.The only trouble was that her potential had not yet been recognised by some of the other barristers who would vote on her future at the end of the year. Looking back on her own struggle for acceptance, Trish couldn't decide whether to advise Nessa to leaven her most forthright opinions with a little humour and wash the ink from her fingers a bit more often, or whether to let her work it out for herself.Without raising her eyes, Nessa fixed a purple Post-it to the side of the document in front of her and made a note. Her pen scraping against the paper added to the soft tapping of branch against branch and the birdsong that came clearly through the open windows. Trish was too much of a townie to know what kind of bird was trilling, but she liked the mixture of noises.The sight of Nessa's industry should have made her get back to her own papers, but she was so filled with content that she couldn't. Here she was, working in one of the most beautiful areas of old London, with relatively clean air to breathe and knotty intellectual problems to solve, paid a small fortune, surrounded by interesting and articulate people, able to walk to and from home in little more than twenty minutes. If she hadn't had such a vivid memory of other times and other lives, she might have felt a little smug.For the past seven years she had shared her life, though not herflat, with George Henton, a powerful solicitor, whose ability to shed his power and his work once he left the office was increasing every month. Then there was David, her half-brother, who had come crashing into her life two years ago, after his mother was murdered. Twelve next birthday, he was revealing himself to be both like Trish and fascinatingly individual.They had come through a lot together. There was still a long way to go, of course, before he would be able to ...'You OK?' Nessa's voice made the cogs in Trish's mind slip again.She let her eyes focus on Nessa's chunky face and smiled. 'Yes. Why?''You looked a bit blah, and you were muttering.''Distracting myself with random thoughts. I do sometimes. Don't worry about it.''OK. Shall I get some coffee? It's just after eleven.''That would be great. Thanks. A large latte, please.' Trish bent to fish some money out of her bag. That was a sign of relaxation, too. In the old days she'd always drunk her coffee strong and black.The door crashed open, revealing Antony Shelley himself, panting and madly beckoning.'I need you, Trish. Now. Come on.''What's up?' she said, pushing back her chair. 'You look as if you were running away from a hostage-taking gunman or an avalanche or something.'He glanced at Nessa, who took the hint and left for the nearest coffee shop.'I've got a woman in my room,' he said, 'who's just burst into tears. Beatrice Bowman, of all people. I can't deal with it. I'll wait here till you've mopped her up. Go on. Don't waste time.''Who?''Come on, Trish. You're not a philistine. She's that biographer: my age; works on the boundary between scholarshipand commercial success; specialises in nineteenth-century literary figures. You must have heard of her.''Only dimly.''That'll do. She's not a client; just a friend in need of TLC. Go and apply some for me, will you? You're much better at that kind of thing than I am.'That was true. Tender loving care was usually well outside his range: he could terrorise almost anyone, even when he didn't mean to.'I'll love you for ever if you sort her out for me.'Trish laughed, then had to straighten her face before she reached his large, book-lined room, where the distressed biographer was waiting.'Ms Bowman?' she said, pushing open the door.A tall woman dressed in dark-grey trousers and a loose terracotta-coloured jacket, with magnificently shiny grey hair, was standing at the window, staring out. She tightened her shoulders, then coughed and turned. Trish had an impression of dramatic cheekbones and big grey eyes before she was distracted by the redness of Beatrice's nose and the dampness of her lashes. They seemed all wrong for so dignified a woman.'Hello. My name's Trish Maguire. Antony thought I might be useful. Is there anything I can get you? Would you like coffee, or mineral water or something?''No, thanks.' A faint smile firmed up Beatrice's trembling lips. 'Antony managed to point out his stock of water and tumblers before he fled. I've had some. I'm sorry you've been dragged in. I only needed a minute to get myself together. Is he all right?''He'll survive. It's good for him to be in a situation he can't control occasionally. He asked me to do whatever I can to help. Let's sit down.' Trish gestured towards the two-seater sofa that stood against the far wall. 'Or would you rather be left alone for a bit longer?'Beatrice shook her head, making the grey hair swing like pleated silk. 'I came to talk. So I'd better do it. Good practice. I can't howl like a baby every time I try to explain. What if it happened in the witness box?''What's the case?' Trish asked, leaning against the striped cushions, ready to offer whatever advice or consolation was needed.Beatrice tilted her head back, as though to search for dust in the corners of the ceiling. When she was sure the latest tears weren't going to leak out, she looked at Trish again.'Libel. Antony doesn't think it'll ever come to court. He says if I do nothing, the claim will probably go to sleep. He thinks I should just wait and see. But how could I, never knowing whether I'm going to be free or not?''He's got pretty good judgement,' Trish said, 'but defamation isn't really his field.''I know. He was colourfully frank about that on the phone.' Beatrice managed a small laugh, which teetered on the edge of another sob. 'But he offered to help me get my story straight before I present it to my publishers. They're being sued too, you see, and they've summoned me to explain myself. I'm due there in about an hour. I only hope I won't go and cry again.' She blew her nose hard. 'It would be too embarrassing for words.''Why libel?' Trish asked, settling for the easiest of all the questions that were buzzing through her brain. 'I thought you wrote about the nineteenth century. Defamation may not be my speciality either, but I do know you can't libel the dead.'Beatrice rubbed her forehead as though it ached, but there were no more tears.'Except that this isn't anything to do with my real work. Last year, I wrote a one-off memoir of Jeremy Marton. He was more or less my age, so everyone else in the book is still alive. Unfortunately.''Marton?' Trish repeated, trying to work out whether she'd ever heard the name.'He ran a refuge for the homeless in Soho. A couple of years ago the police discovered it was being used as a centre for drug-dealing, quite unbeknown to him. That didn't stop them accusing him of being involved, though, and he killed himself. There was a lot in the papers at the time.''Then I must have read about it.' Trish frowned for a moment, then pinned down the memory. 'It's coming back to me. There was more than just drugs, though, wasn't there? Hadn't there been some wickedness in his past? Murder or something?''That's what the press made out. But it wasn't murder. He never meant anyone to die.' The indignation that bristled in Beatrice's voice made her seem a lot tougher. More likeable too. 'It was an accident.''Why not tell me what really happened?' Trish said, sitting more comfortably on the sofa and happy to encourage the sense of outrage. If anything could help Beatrice put her case to her publishers convincingly it would be that.'He got involved with a group of violent student activists while he was at university in the early 1970s,' she said.

Buna-nitrile can have high tensile strength, and abrasion, tear, and compression set resistance. It can be used in temperatures between -30 degrees F (-34 degrees C) to 250 degrees F (121 degrees C), and is compatible for use with petroleum, HFA, HFB and HFC fluids, vegetable oil, alcohol, acids and aliphatic hydrocarbons. Buna-nitrile is vulnerable to acetone, ethers, esters, ozone, sunlight and weathering and should therefore not be used in ozone-generating electric motors, welding equipment, or in applications with exposure to UV light. This Buna O-ring has a shore durometer of 70A. Shore durometer is the hardness of a material, and its resistance to permanent indentation. A higher durometer value indicates greater resistance to indentation on a scale of 0 to 100, with 100 indicating no indentation. O-rings commonly provide a pressure and fluid seal between cylindrically shaped, overlapping mating surfaces and are commonly seen in engines, faucets, flanges, valves, and various cylinders. They are circular in shape, with a round cross section, and a hole in the center, similar to a doughnut. O-rings are available in various sizes, and can be ordered based on required nominal inside diameter (ID), outer diameter (OD), and cross-sectional (CS) diameter.

Whenever he gets an erection, a Blitz bomb hits. Slothrop gets excited, and then (as Thomas Pynchon puts it in his sinister, insinuatingly sibilant opening sentence), ""a screaming comes across the sky,"" heralding an angel of death, a V-2 rocket. The novel's title, Gravity's Rainbow, refers to the rocket's vapor arc, a cruel dark parody of what God sent Noah to symbolize his promise never to destroy humanity again. History has been a big trick: the plan is to switch from floods to obliterating fire from the sky. Slothrop's father was an unwitting part of the cosmic doublecross. To provide for the boy's future Harvard education, he took cash from the mad German scientist Laszlo Jamf, who performed Pavlovian experiments on the infant Tyrone. Laszlo invented Imipolex G, a new plastic useful in rocket insulation, and conditioned Tyrone's privates to respond to its presence. Now the grown-up Tyrone helplessly senses the Imipolex G in incoming V-2s, and his military superiors are investigating him. Soon he is on the run from legions of bizarre enemies through the phantasmagoric horrors of Germany. That's just the Imipolex G tip of the shrieking vehicle that is Pynchon's book. It's pretty much impossible to follow a standard plot; one must have faith that each manic episode is connected with the great plot to blow up the world with the ultimate rocket. There is not one story, but a proliferation of characters (Pirate Prentice, Teddy Bloat, Tantivy Mucker-Maffick, Saure Bummer, and more) and events that tantalize the reader with suggestions of vast patterns only just past our comprehension. You will enjoy Pynchon's cartoon inferno far more if you consult Steven Weisenburger's brief companion to the novel, which sorts out Pynchon's blizzard of references to science, history, high culture, and the lowest of jokes. Rest easy: there really is a simple reason why Kekul von Stradonitz's dream about a serpent biting its tail (which solved the structure of the benzene molecule) belongs in the same novel as the comic-book-hero Plastic Man. Pynchon doesn't want you to rest easy with solved mysteries, though. Gravity's Rainbow uses beautiful prose to induce an altered state of consciousness, a buzz. It's a trip, and it will last. --Tim Appelo --This text refers to an alternate Paperback edition.

Think of your birth chart as a baseline or foundation that supports your constantly evolving, ever-changing life. You are as unique as each day, and although experiences and events shift your perspective over time, your basic personality remains the same. Change is an ongoing process that brings what appear to be new viewpoints, directions, and talents as you learn and grow from success and failure alike. Throughout this process, and with the help of the shifting planets, in actuality you are discovering new facets of yourself, previously unrevealed, and untapped strengths and gifts-your hidden potential. This hidden potential and its flip side-your weaknesses-are found in your natal chart. Through it, you can better map your future, knowing when to act, when to maintain the status quo, and what avenues to pursue to become the best you can be. An astrological prediction is nothing more than a forecast of how you and your natal chart, which represents you, will respond when presented with a given set of circumstances and planetary alignments. The natal chart is thus the place to begin. Although a thorough analysis and delineation is preferable, you can easily and quickly capture the essence of the chart by using the method outlined in this chapter. This knowledge, combined with specific predictive techniques, is a good starting point. It gives you a feel for your natal chart, how your personality is expressed inwardly and outwardly. These items are included in the overview: Hemispheres, quadrants, and houses Elements and modes Sun and aspects Moon and aspects Ascendant and aspects Angular planets Strongest planet(s)Hemispheres, Quadrants, and Houses Hemispheres and quadrants can be likened to the big picture, the panoramic view that reveals the first insight into personality. Through them, you can loosely characterize the chart as one belonging to an extrovert or introvert, a people person, or someone who is self-reliant. Although these descriptions are general and stereotypical, they do signify basic lifestyle preferences. Hemispheres Count the number of planets in your chart in the northern hemisphere (bottom half) and southern hemisphere (top half) of the chart, which is divided horizontally by the Ascendant/Descendant (first-house cusp/seventh-house cusp) axis, which is also called the horizon (chart 1). Do the same for the western (right) and eastern (left) halves, which are divided vertically by the IC/Midheaven (fourth-house cusp/tenth-house cusp) axis (chart 2). A balanced distribution of planets, such as a five/five or four/six split between the northern and southern hemispheres or the western and eastern hemispheres, indicates that both influences are operative. An emphasis of planets in one hemisphere or the other, such as a seven/three split, signals a higher comfort level in the hemisphere with the most planets. Northern hemisphere-Because this hemisphere is below the horizon, you are introspectiveand rely on yourself for solutions more often than you consult with others. Generally, but not always, you are more comfortable operating out of the public eye. Southern hemisphere-With more planets in this hemisphere, which is above thehorizon, you are an extrovert who finds strength in relationships. You ask others for opinions and solutions, and probably have natural leadership ability and enjoy being in public positions. Eastern hemisphere-Because the Ascendant, which represents you, is in thishemisphere, your focus is more on your needs and desires. You are self-motivated and action-oriented, and usually go after what you want. Western hemisphere-An emphasis on this hemisphere, which includes the Descendant(partners), turns your focus to other people. You are motivated by and responsive to the wants and needs of others. Quadrants The quadrants further narrow the focus (chart 3). In many charts, one quadrant is emphasized over the others because the Sun,Mercury, and Venus are never far apart.More commonly, two quadrants contain more planets than the others and therefore represent the dominant energy. The first quadrant is houses one, two, and three; the second quadrant is houses four, five, and six; the third quadrant is houses seven, eight, and nine; and the fourth quadrant is houses ten, eleven, and twelve. First quadrant-This quadrant begins with the Ascendant (you) and combinesthe influences of the northern and eastern hemispheres. It reinforces independence, and you easily initiate action and express yourself. Second quadrant-With the combined influences of the northern and westernhemispheres, this quadrant begins with the IC, which represents your roots and family. Although self-directed, you are receptive to others and value their input. Third quadrant-Beginning with the Descendant (partners), this quadrant combinesthe influences of the southern and western hemispheres. Relationships are important to you, and as a people person, you seek advice and opinions. Natal Chart Overview 7 Fourth quadrant-The fourth quadrant begins with the Midheaven, which is associatedwith career and status. It combines the influences of the southern and eastern hemispheres.With this emphasis you are self-motivated and ambitious; you value teamwork. Houses and Angles A horoscope is divided into twelve pie-shaped pieces called houses (chart 4). Each house is associated with a particular area of life, such as money, health, romance, or career. The dividing lines between houses are called cusps. ...(Continues)",astrology;books;new age;occult;religion & spirituality,5 B0002ZBJHG,Sex Type Thing Track Title 1. Sex Type Thing 2. Piece Of Pie 3.

Water resistant to 165 feet, this Casio original also has a scratch resistant mineral crystal for added protection. With the launch of its first watch in November 1974, Casio entered the wristwatch market at a time when the watch industry had just discovered digital technology. As a company with cutting-edge electronic technology developed for pocket calculators, Casio entered this field confident that it could develop timepieces that would lead the market. In developing its own wristwatches Casio began with the basic question, """"What is a wristwatch?"""" Rather than simply making a digital version of the conventional mechanical watch, we thought that the ideal wristwatch should be something that shows all facets of time in a consistent way. Based on this, Casio was able to create a watch that displayed the precise time including the second, minute, hour, day, and month not to mention a.m. or p.m., and the day of the week. It was the first watch in the world with a digital automatic calendar function that eliminated the need to reset the calendar due the variation in month length. Rather than using a conventional watch face and hands, a digital liquid crystal display was adopted to better show all the information. This culminated in the 1974 launch of the CASIOTRON, the worlds first digital watch with automatic calendar. The CASIOTRON won acclaim as a groundbreaking product that represented a complete departure from the conventional wristwatch. Casio transformed the concept of the watch from a mere timepiece to an information device for the wrist and undertook product planning based on this innovative idea. We developed not only time functions such as global time zone watches, but also other radical new functions using Casios own digital technology, including calculator and dictionary functions, as well as a phonebook feature based on memory technology, and even a thermometer function using a built-in sensor. The memory-function watches became our DATA BANK product series, while the sensor watches developed into two unique Casio product lines of today: the Pathfinder series displaying altitude, atmospheric pressure, and compass readings. In 1983, Casio launched the shock-resistant G-SHOCK watch. This product shattered the notion that a watch is a fragile piece of jewelry that needs to be handled with care, and was the result of Casio engineers taking on the challenge of creating the worlds toughest watch. Using a triple-protection design for the parts, module, and case, the G-SHOCK offered a radical new type of watch that was unaffected by strong impacts or shaking. Its practicality was immediately recognized, and its unique look, which embodied its functionality, became wildly popular, resulting in explosive sales in the early 1990s. The G-SHOCK soon adopted various new sensors, solar-powered radio-controlled technology (described below), and new materials for even better durability. By always employing the latest technology, and continuing to transcend conventional thinking about the watch, the G-SHOCK brand has become Casios flagship timepiece product. Today, Casio is focusing its efforts on solar-powered radio-controlled watches: the built-in solar battery eliminates the nuisance of replacing batteries, and the radio-controlled function means users never have to reset the time. In particular, the radio-controlled function represents a revolution in time-keeping technology similar to the impact created when mechanical watches gave way to quartz technology. Through the further development of high radio-wave sensitivity, miniaturization, and improved energy efficiency, Casio continues to produce a whole range of radio-controlled models.",accessories;sport watches;sports & outdoors;watches;wrist watches,5 B0009JNF5E,"3-DEVICE Universal Remote Control with Partial Back Lighting The Jensen(r) JER321 universal remote allows you to control your TV, VCR/DVD, and cable with a single device.",accessories & supplies;audio & video accessories;electronics;remote controls;tv remote controls,5 B000BO84I0,"Society Hills Textiles 500-Thread-Count 100-Percent Cotton Sheet Set, White, King Drift off to sleep in the lap of luxury with this 500-thread-count, two-ply king sheet set.

That same year, he began a regular gig at a club called the Trois Mailletz, a job he was to hold until 1973. This CD was recorded in his first month at the club, during a visit from his old friend Willie Dixon, the great blues songwriter and bassist. The atmosphere that night was genial and relaxed as the two men traded songs back and forth. While their singing never reached the passion of the earlier records from the 1940s and '50s, Memphis Slim's hard-driving piano and Dixon's thumping bass made up for the lack of vocal fire. Most of the songs tend to be on the obscure side, but even minor efforts like ""Pigalle Love,"" a sly ode to a woman who works in the notorious Paris red-light district, have an undeniable charm. Aux Trois Mailletz is not the best work from either man, but it does offer a glimpse of two blues giants playing some fine songs and enjoying each other's company. --Michael Simmons CD -Jazz In Paris- Collection",blues;jazz;music;pop;r&b,5 0970514905,"Christianity's Unknown Gospel Paul G.

When a woman is found naked and dead in a vacant apartment in West London, the letter ""T"" carved into one foot, a callus on her neck leads Inspector Bill Slider to identify the victim as a violinist, one Anne-Marie Austen. Although the antipathetic Austen seemed to have no life outside her modest orchestra job, a visit to her dingy bedsit turns up a Stradivarius worth at least a million pounds; other clues lead to a second residence, a luxury penthouse, as well as the extravagant habit of driving to Birmingham just to buy a certain olive oil. As Slider learns that Austen had been pressuring a fellow musician to continue an affair, he himself is drawn to Austen's playing partner, and muddies his marriage and the investigation by beginning a romance with her. Like the other developments here, including more killings, the new relationship rings resoundingly true. And although Harrod-Eagles unabashedly hints at a clue that might settle everything, no one bit of information answers every question. A sophisticated ending whets readers' interest in the further adventures of these strong players. Copyright 1992 Reed Business Information, Inc. This British author's first mystery introduces Detective Inspector Bill Slider, taken advantage of at work and pummeled verbally at home by his incompatible spouse. His own dissatisfaction leads Slider to become immersed in solving the murder of a beautiful young violin player. With the help of best friend Sergeant Atherton and the sympathetic ear of newfound true love Joanna, Slider uncovers a far-flung conspiracy. Nicely detailed prose, approachable characters with very human problems, and comforting police procedure quicken the plot and open the door for a sequel. An excellent choice.Copyright 1992 Reed Business Information, Inc. A plethora of suspects, a reserved, mild-mannered hero, and the understatement so typical of the traditional British procedural mark the mystery debut of longtime English novelist Harrod-Eagles (Anna, p. 954), who, here, animates her routine plotting with the love-life of her unhappily married, middle-aged Detective Inspector Bill Slider, now trying to identify the naked young woman's body found in an abandoned London flat. Clues lead Slider and his partner, young Lothario Atherton, to the Philharmonic and the corpse's seatmate in the string section, Joanna Marsh, with whom Slider falls passionately in tryst, maybe even in love, to the worry of his mother-henning partner. The victim, violinist Anne- Marie Austen, is barely missed by her cold aunt, who stands to inherit her fortune, but is sentimentally mourned by local vet Hildyard. Moreover, tins of exotic olive oil and a secret Stradivarius indicate that Anne-Marie had international mob connections--which brings in the Special Branch and shunts Slider off the case. But determined to catch the killer, Slider persists- -and narrowly escapes conflagration before resolving matters to his own satisfaction. First in a projected series and more notable for its romantic shenanigans than its mayhem. Still: an acceptable addition to the cozy British genre. -- Copyright 1991, Kirkus Associates, LP.

Viton has excellent heat, fuel, and chemical resistance. Viton is acceptable for temperature applications between -15 degrees F (-26 degrees C) to 400 degrees F (205 degrees C). It is compatible for use with non-flammable hydraulic fuels, silicone oil, chlorinated hydrocarbons (trichlorethylene), fuels, aromatic hydrocarbons (benzene) and aliphatic hydrocarbons (propane), as well as high vacuum environments, ozone, and weathering. Viton is vulnerable to low molecular organic acids, ammonia gas, alkalis, amines, glycol-based brake fluids, and super-heated steam. This Viton O-ring has a shore durometer of 75A. Shore durometer is the hardness of a material, and its resistance to permanent indentation. A higher durometer value indicates greater resistance to indentation on a scale of 0 to 100, with 100 indicating no indentation. O-rings commonly provide a pressure and fluid seal between cylindrically shaped, overlapping mating surfaces and are commonly seen in engines, faucets, flanges, valves and various cylinders. They are circular in shape, with a round cross section and a hole in the center, similar to a doughnut. O-rings are available in various sizes, and can be ordered based on required nominal inside diameter (ID), outer diameter (OD), and cross-sectional (CS) diameter.

With this grabber, Tiffany takes the characters from Shakespeare's The Tempest and provides background as to how they get to the point where readers find them in the play. The story spans centuries, beginning with Ariel's birth from the head of a luckless sailor, who was blown across the Atlantic in the fifty-eighth Year of Our Lord and ending with the arrival of Christopher Columbus in the New World. In between, readers meet Caliban, Prospero, Miranda, Antonio, Alonso, Gonzalo, and Ferdinand. While the general story line remains the same, Tiffany alters some of the details in an attempt to show the motives behind the characters' behaviors. For instance, Tinkerbell-like Ariel serves Prospero because she doesn't want the magician to re-imprison her inside the tree where he first found her. Caliban, not literally a monster, walks with a deformed leg because Ariel refused to help his mother during his difficult birth. Miranda befriends him and makes her sexual desires known; thus, he is totally innocent of making improper advances. Other characters include an innocent Alonso; a spoiled, simpering Ferdinand whom Miranda eventually rejects; and a devoted, loving Caliban who wins her heart in the end. The author seems to have structured her ideas in keeping with a revisionist interpretation of the play as a condemnation of European colonialism. The prose is well written and easy to follow, using language that suggests the Bard's poetry. This is a good adjunct to the play and, in the tradition of Robin McKinley's Beauty (HarperCollins, 1978), a means of familiarizing modern-day readers with the heroes of a classic tale, while taking some interesting liberties with the original ideas.Nancy Menaldi-Scanlan, LaSalle Academy, Providence, RI Copyright Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved. Born from the dreams of a shipwrecked sailor, Ariel, the spirit from Shakespeare's The Tempest, sparks this retelling, or, perhaps more accurately, pretelling. When the sailor dies, Ariel does not, and spends the following centuries shifting from one fantastical form to another, amusing herself in solitude until a very practical and very pregnant woman named Sycorax lands on her island to give birth to Caliban. Sycorax's lack of imagination confounds, then diminishes Ariel until she is weak enough to be imprisoned in a tree for her unwillingness to offer Sycorax any practical assistance. It is there Ariel remains while Caliban grows from infant to child, there that she becomes increasingly enraged. Preying on the dreams of the child, Ariel seeks revenge. By the time Prospero and his daughter, Miranda, arrive on the island, Ariel has found a way to manipulate certain tendencies in the human mind to gain her freedom and increase her power. This lush, lyrical, and elegantly expressive work is a strong mix of solid narrative storytelling, sensitive characterization, and fantasy. A familiarity with The Tempest enriches the reading but is not required, especially as the author so thoroughly liberates the story. An outstanding addition to Shakespearean retellings for strong teen readers. Holly KoellingCopyright American Library Association.

Also known as lipoic acid (LA) or thioctic acid, it functions as a coenzyme in the metabolism of carbohydrates, and is in this way similar to B-complex vitamins. LA is required for synthesis of acetyl CoA, a key metabolite in the cellular process that turns glucose (blood sugar) into energy. Because the body produces LA on its own, it is not classified as a true vitamin. As with other so-called non-essential nutrients, however, internal LA production may not always be optimal. Alpha-lipoic acid functions as both a water-soluble and fat-soluble antioxidant. Free radicals are normal by=products of metabolism that, while necessary at normal levels, may damage tissue over time if not properly kept in check by antioxidants. Lipoic acids ability to neutralize free radicals in both watery and fatty environments makes it a highly versatile antioxidant. In the body, alpha-lipoic acid can be converted (reduced) to DHLA, or dihydrolipoic acid, a potent mitochondrial antioxidant. It is not necessary to take DHLA as a supplement, as the body may readily convert LA to DHLA.",alpha lipoic acid;antioxidants;health & personal care;nutrition & wellness;vitamins & supplements,5 B000C2YCJG,Gates K060882 Multi V-Groove Belt Serpentine Belt,automotive;belts;hoses & pulleys;replacement parts;v belts,5 B000KEWP3Q,"Ateco Cookie Cutter Sets Ateco's Country Cutter Set includes twelve cutters with country themed shapes.

As part of their layoff experience, they met other professionals who didn't just survive layoff but who found equivalent jobs or entirely new careers.

Who hasn't looked at a fruit or vegetable and seen a funny face? In How Are You Peeling?--by the creator of the whimsical Play with Your Food--the ""natural personalities"" of produce are enhanced with black-eyed pea eyes and the occasional carved mouth--then photographed in vivid colors. One page reveals a wistful-looking poblano pepper being comforted by a cheerful red tomato, while another shows the amused, confused, frustrated, and surprised expressions of a green pepper, red pepper, orange, and apple. Adults and children alike will marvel at the range of expressions these fruits and vegetables possess--did you know just how many faces a kiwi could have? With simple rhymed text describing the emotions (""How are you when friends drop by?/ With someone new... a little shy?""), this appealing picture book is bound to spark discussion with young children. Parents can use it to talk about different emotions or to help children to identify and articulate their mood of the moment. Adults will just plain be amused. (Click to see a sample spread. Copyright 1999 by Play with Your Food, LLC. Used by permission of Scholastic Inc.) (Ages 2 to 6) --Richard Farr Photos of scowling oranges and gregarious scallions garnish this garden of delights from the creators of Play with Your Food. The recipe is simple and successful. Freymann and Elffers find a piece of ""expressive produce"" and attach two black-eyed peas for eyes. Without further ado, the veggie becomes a face, with a knobby stem or skinny root for a schnozzola; an upended mushroom has a hilarious piglike snout, while a kiwi fruit has a button nose. The animated groceries are exhibited, actual size or larger, against crisp hues of harvest gold, melon green or late-night-sky blue. Their groupings imply close relationships: lemons trade meaningful glances and a little onion cries. Meanwhile, the rhyming text draws comparisons between the emotive plants and its audience when it queries, ""Wired? Tired? Need a kiss?/ Do you know anyone like this?"" The plotless and largely superfluous narrative recommends expressing jealousy or affection (""When how you feel is understood,/ you have a friend, and that feels good""). It's a sentiment as healthy as an apple a day, but the book's real charm is derived from the almost-ready-made ""sculptures""Aas an afterword calls them. This wish-I'd-thought-of-that compendium provides an excellent impetus for a craft session: the ingredients are cheap, and mistakes can be eaten as salad (if artists have the heart). All ages. (Oct.) Copyright 1999 Reed Business Information, Inc. PreSchool-Grade 2-An eye-catching and enormously appealing book. Freymann and Elffers frequented New York's fruit and vegetable markets, picking out particularly ""expressive"" onions, peppers, oranges, apples, and the like. They then created intriguing faces on the produce, taking advantage of stems and creases, carving mouths, and adding black-eyed peas for eyes. The sculptures were then photographed on solid-colored backgrounds. The ""faces"" clearly show an array of emotions, from excitement and happiness to frustration and confusion. Accompanied by simple rhymes (""When you have to wait, because someone is late,/are you bored? Jumpy? Worried? Grumpy?/Excited as the minutes pass?/Now your friend is here at last!""), the attractive photographs burst with color. Use this book to discuss different moods, to introduce the names of many fruits and vegetables, to identify colors, and to inspire young artists to create sculptures of their own.Anne Knickerbocker, Cedar Brook Elementary School, Houston, TX Copyright 2000 Reed Business Information, Inc. Going produce shopping with Freymann and Elffers is more of a casting call than a trip to the supermarket, for they use fruits and vegetables to display a wide range of emotions. Children and their keepers will be astonished to discover how closely the wrinkles, bends, and creases in produce can mimic human feelings. The text is fairly direct, asking questions to make children think about their emotions: ""When you're angry, do you pout? Whine? Cry? Scream? Shout?"" The ridges of a red pepper, with eyes of dried peas, convey the pout, while other fruit demonstrate the rest of the query. These full-color photographs communicate most of the information; even preschoolers will be able to tell a happy orange from a glum one, and adults will smile to see an onion crying. The organic qualities of the produce are used to charming advantage, e.g., the bend of a green pepper makes the perfect overbearing profile of a bully, while a hollowed-out orange gives just the right depth to an opened-mouthed howl. Fun, and useful -- what child would not be encouraged to talk about being shy when there is a cantaloupe that admits to exactly the same thing? (Picture book. 4-9) -- Copyright 1999, Kirkus Associates, LP. All rights reserved. In the fertile mind of artist/sculptor Saxton Freymann, a cauliflower is a poodle, an artichoke is a wolf, a banana is an octopus, and a pumpkin is just about anything. Fruits and veggies - meticulously carved, then photographed - are his special gift to the bountiful world of children's literature. ""What's great about food,"" he says, ""is that it keeps all of the photos fun."" Freymann lives in New York City with his wife and three children, all of whom are very healthy, he says, because they eat the cast of characters he works on. For more information about Saxton Freymann, visit: scholastic.com/tradebooks Born in The Netherlands to artist parents, Joost turned his creative energy to food in 1976, when he became fascinated with the garnishes used by Japanese sushi chefs. The result was Play With Your Food, his first collaboration with Saxton Freymann, and a bestseller for the whole family. Joost believes that if you can open children's eyes and thinking with things they can understand and duplicate - like food creations - a new range of creativity opens up.

Housed in a single bar-shaped body but equipped with 23 speaker drivers--each with its own digital amplifier--the YSP-800 delivers full-bodied, multichannel sound through a single elegant component. The device works by focusing the sound into ""beams,"" and then projecting them at optical angles into the room via the analytical IntelliBeam function. At the same time, the YSP-800 controls the driver delay times and optimizes the level and frequency response of each beam. The resulting sound waves--both direct and reflected--create a soundscape that seems to be coming from speakers placed throughout the room, but in reality is playing through the digital sound projector. The YSP-800 isn't just about sound, though. Its slim, contemporary design is also wildly convenient, as listeners no longer have to find complementary locations for five satellite speakers and a subwoofer, nor do they have to fuss with extra-long speaker cables running all through the house. Rather, listeners can place the YSP-800 next to or on top of their video display, or they can purchase an optional wall-mount bracket and hang it securely on the wall. The latter option is particularly handy for owners of moderate-sized flat-panel TVs and monitors, as it both saves space and visually complements the display. The projector is even versatile enough to work in corners or other unusual room configurations. The projector's versatility extends to its variety of sound modes, which include a five-beam mode, a three-beam mode, a stereo mode, a stereo + three-beam mode, and a target mode. Each mode produces a unique effect that varies depending on the shape of the room, the orientation of the projector, and other factors. Meanwhile, a subtle blue LCD on the projector's base keeps listeners informed of the current surround setting and volume level. Listeners will also dig the YSP-800's built-in 82-watt digital amplifier, which connects directly to A/V components. The amp offers a host of valuable features, including Dolby Digital, DTS, Dolby Pro Logic II, and DTS Neo:6 decoding and a trio of Cinema Digital Sound Processing (DSP) programs (Movie, Music, and Sports). Connectivity stems from the three digital audio inputs (one coaxial and two optical) and two analog audio RCA inputs. The device also offers a subwoofer output terminal for listeners who want to enjoy a more robust bass performance. The YSP-800, which is outfitted with twenty-one 1.62-inch tweeter/midrange drivers and a pair of 3.94-inch woofers, measures 31.5 by 6 by 4.5 inches (W x H x D) and is backed by a two-year warranty. What's in the Box YSP-800 digital sound projector, remote control, IntelliBeam microphone, user's manual. Yamaha YSP-800SL Silver Digital Sound Projector provides true Multi-channel surround sound enjoyment from a single component with IntelliBeam auto setup! A perfect match for 32"" and other video displays. No need for extra wiring or speakers. A wider range of optimum listening positions thanks to the proliferation of audio ""sweet spots"". The YSP-800 can be wall-mounted (with optional SPM-K8 wall mount) or placed on a shelf or rack. The design is more elegant and less obtrusive than multiple speaker boxes. There is no need for numerous speakers and cables. IntelliBeam Automated Calibration System automatically sets up the product for your room. It ensures optimum multi-channel sound reproduction with accurate image location by monitoring and analyzing the sound with the microphone included with the system. Intellibeam automatically sets the best beam angles and modes, while optimizing the level and frequency response of each beam. This makes initial setup both extremely simple while acoustically perfect. Manual setup is also possible.The YSP-800 features 3 Cinema DSP Programs, Dolby Digital and DTS sound formats. The original Yamaha Digital Amplifier provides 2W each to the 21 beam drivers and 20W each to two woofers. A total of 82W of power. The advanced digital design is highly efficient and keeps distortion to an absolute minimum. The YSP-800 also features On-Screen display, 0.1W standby Power Consumption, and a preset remote control.

Featuring a play within a play, this production is superbly performed if slightly confusing in audiobook formatit's often difficult to keep track of who is speaking and to keep track of the endlessly reconfiguring relationships. Henry searches for meaning both in art and romantic relationships as he attempts to write a play about his love for Annie and begrudgingly ghostwrites a play for Brodie, an incarcerated soldier and talentless, aspiring playwright. Templeman shines as Henry, perfectly capturing his wit, bravado and pathos. With terrific performances from the supporting cast, this audiobook will delight Stoppard fans and theater lovers. (Aug.)

Of the London production...""[The Real Thing] is about both love and art, and it is wise, witty, and astonishing through and through...Enthralling.""--Alastair Macaulay, Financial Times""You couldn't ask for a more deeply felt, or more deeply affecting, drama about love than this...The Real Thing is indeed the genuine article--a play of strength, grace, melancholy and wit.""--Charles Spencer, The Daily Telegraph""When it comes to putting erotic love in its place, no contemporary English playwright has done so with such illuminating rigour or eloquence as Tom Stoppard.""--Nicholas De Jongh, Evening Standard --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. Tom Stoppard's work includes Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead, The Real Inspector Hound, Jumpers, Travesties, Night and Day, Every Good Boy Deserves Favour, After Magritte, Dirty Linen, The Real Thing, Hapgood, Arcadia, Indian Ink, The Invention of Love, the trilogy The Coast of Utopia and Rock 'n' Roll. His radio plays include If You're Glad I'll Be Frank, Albert's Bridge, Where Are They Now?, Artist Descending a Staircase, The Dog It Was That Died, In the Native State and Darkside (incorporating Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon). Television work includes Professional Foul, Squaring the Circle and Parade's End. His film credits include Empire of the Sun, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead, which he also directed, Shakespeare in Love, Enigma and Anna Karenina. Wordsmith Tom Stoppard's semi-autobiographical romantic comedy wowed audiences on the West End and Broadway. This superbly performed audio version, recorded before an appreciative studio audience, does the same. Henry, a playwright known for his witty and cynical oeuvre, is in real life a romantic--an insecure one at that. The infidelities of Annie, the actress he loves, and her incomprehensible support for a thuggish Scottish radical, force him to reexamine his idea of the ""real thing"" he yearns for. Particularly in the mouths of Simon Templeman, as Henry, and Carolyn Seymour, as Henry's first wife, the dialogue sparkles. As Annie, Joanne Whalley does a serviceable job but has two problems. She occasionally steps on Henry's laughs, and she doesn't vocally project the appeal that makes Henry's predicament so acute. Y.R.

Although Booth ( The Rhetoric of Fiction ), age 71, includes such cheery banal verse as ""I Haven't Lost My Marbles Yet"" (Minnie Hodapp), he has tailored this collection to encompass the unpleasant truths about aging. William Butler Yeats's ""Sailing to Byzantium"" and excerpts from Simone de Beauvoir's The Coming of Age offer realistic assessments of the perils and possible consolations of aging.

After that, things settle into that no-surprises-no-disappointments groove that characterizes all of the Bats' albums; everyone's just fine at what they do, catchy melodies are plentiful, and occasional tweaks and touches keep things from being too completely soundalike, such as the addition of slightly droning keyboards on ""Slow Alight.""

These letters also amused friends who convinced Rich to read them at poetry open mic nights and later publish them in zines (self produced photocopied booklets).

Though she has progressed in her understanding of bipedal folk, Firekeeper, a human raised by intelligent wolves, still considers people unnecessarily convoluted in their ways. She has little tolerance for court life, and her language skills haven't improved much at all. She would rather be running with the pack than prancing before royalty. Luckily, with the aid of her animal friends, Firekeeper helps to foil an assassination plot, which in turn leads to the gathering of old allies in a quest to regain lost magical items. With loads of chutzpah and not much to go on, the group heads out into unknown territory. Firekeeper's animal companions show more of their nature here than in the previous novel, bringing their own needs and skills to the mix and adding an extra layer to the romantic plot. Lindskold uses her knowledge of wolf pack behavior to good advantage, both in the actions of the wolf Blind Seer and in the engaging character of Firekeeper.

One of my earliest music memories is of holding down the damper pedal of the piano and trying to make the tones sound like cathedral bells. I was born in Seattle, but grew up in the South, singing in choirs, playing hymns, studying classical music, and listening to popular music. By the time I reached college, I had developed a keen interest in Appalachian folk music, which I was lucky enough to document at Berea College Music Library, and I learned a host of things there. It took a few years of teaching piano, raising a family, traveling around the world, to realize that one of my truest desires was to sing, write, and record music. I began fulfilling that dream in 1995 with the help of my husband Kurt Scherer. Together we began to build a band of talented musicians that are from an eclectic bouquet of music influences. They have become part of our family. Kurt and I have produced three albums: Sabbath Day's Journey (1998), Entrances (1999), and The Beauty of the Earth (2002) on our own independent label, Brimstone Music. We have toured up and down the West Coast, from British Columbia to Southern California, packed into trucks, vans, and hotel rooms, enjoying our travels together. Our sound has been compared to Loreena McKennitt, (and I consider this a great compliment), our stage is lit with medieval candelabras, and we strive to express the love of beautiful music in our performances. I think it's working. People are starting to show up in large numbers and buy numerous CDs. And so we plan to continue this venture. I still have my foot on the damper pedal of the piano, and quite often we perform our music in cathedrals. I invite you to join us. And hope that you enjoy our music as much as we enjoy making it. -Lydia McCauley Lydia McCauleys new CD release, THE BEAUTY OF THE EARTH, fuses Lydias luminous songwriting and vocals with a brilliant performance from her ensemble of musicians.

Few people outside graduate school read serious literary criticism, but a look into Wilson's intense thought and clear prose makes you wonder why the genre has been neglected.

After years of cushy public relations duty, officer Jack Mills wants to earn some respect as a homicide detective. A handsome, 36-year-old divorced ex-lacrosse star who is both promiscuous and selfish, Mills strives to reform himself as he investigates the murders of two corrupt fellow cops in Nassau County, Long Island. Mills runs the investigation with Claire Williamson, a tough, sexy Suffolk County detective from a family of cops. Together they search out the connections between the victims, Artie Backman and Richard ""Dicktop"" Mazzarella, two widely despised police captains. Westerman ( Exit Wounds ) initially succeeds in making his protagonist credible, but his evolution is less convincing: Mills breaks his handsome nose, falls in love with Claire and ends up a decorated hero. The novel's other cops are just so many catchy nicknames, difficult to differentiate among from one chapter to the next. Ultimately the caper itself is unsatisfying, its resolution leaving many questions but little desire to dig for the answers. Copyright 1991 Reed Business Information, Inc. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. Suburban Long Island, scene of Westermann's Exit Wounds (1990), is the menacing background in the search for a cop killer. Westermann, one of the few crime writers to realize that America is now the suburbs and that criminals live in ranch houses too, uses the sprawl outside New York to great effect as Detective Jack Mills seeks to become a real cop after years in the police department's p.r. division. Mills, a handsome former athlete now in his 30s, skated through his youth, supported by men and women who would do anything for a jock. Now divorced and living alone after the departure of his latest popsy, the homicide detective stands his first real police duty when he's charged with finding out who murdered Arthur Backman, a policeman disliked by everyone he knew, including his wife and yuppie son. Teamed with sexy Claire Williamson, a more experienced and competent detective, Mills begins to turn up evidence of Backman's corruption and his sordid liaison with a pathetic cop groupie, and rather quickly Mills finds that he is poking into the affairs of the local syndicate, the local Republican machine, and his own superiors at the police station. He may be in over his head. Even more awkward, he has become more than a little smitten with Detective Williamson, a very difficult woman to impress. Things get uglier as another rotten policeman dies and a nice little old Irish lady is menaced by a villain on a ten-speed. Good stuff. Westermann paints people rather than types and puts them into a palpable world of strip malls, frontage roads, and postwar subdivisions.

Jonathan Oliver employs a husky-voiced tone that proves the right match for this darkish story, one that requires of listeners a dollop of patience. Set first in Czechoslovakia, then in Switzerland, Kundera's story tells the sometimes laborious story of a womanizing Czech surgeon forced to flee the Russian invasion and take on menial roles, giving his passion for the flesh a slighly different perspective, as he is no longer a doctor but just a window-washer. His relationship with this current female-of-choice, the interesting and puzzling Tereza, is at the center of the novel. Oliver is good, very good, pausing with great effect, having just the right amount of low-key drama and contemplative musing in his narration. He's a good fit for a book that not everyone will like, but those who stay the course will generally be pleased they did. T.H.

Rendering one woman's life from childhood into motherhood and middle age, The Lion in the Room Next Door begins in Brazil where the narrator is living in the Hotel Terminus with her parents and sisters, waiting for her father's new factory to be finished so they can move into a house. She spies on the other guests, even on her own father as he eats his breakfast alone, and is preoccupied by a sound she hears beneath the hotel's life, at night, a rumbling that ""moves through the wall by my head,"" then ""recedes like the tide."" She goes searching for the source of the sound, slipping out of her bedroom at night, or dreaming she has slipped out. It is the sound of childhood enchantment, where everywhere you look you see a buried life. As the book progresses, the narrator travels the world and crosses the threshold into her erotic life. Foreign places are full of the promise of sex and the threat of predatory men: the leering porter, the soldier with a gun on the beach who eyes her as she swims. Throughout she is involved in various complicated affairs, and sex moves more and more to the forefront of her story, becoming the thing that hums below the surface, the big mystery, the same mystery over and over. Alas, the narrator's preoccupation with her sexual power becomes a little tiresome--like a girlfriend who talks about men all the time, sometimes I wished Simonds would change the subject. Nevertheless The Lion in the Room Next Door is a formidable debut, full of shining moments and careful lyricism. --Emily White --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. Keenly observed, the stories that make up Simonds's second book (after the nonfiction The Convict Lover) chart the course of one woman's life, from her earliest apprehension of sex to her midlife intimations of mortality. Divided into three sections (""Saudades--Yearnings,"" ""Lipes--Sorrows,"" and ""Milagros--Miracles""), the 11 narratives take the unnamed Canadian narrator through several familiar rites of passage, including escape into an early marriage and a later decision to leave her husband. But in its particulars, the existence described is unfamiliar, even exotic. The narrator spends her '50s childhood in Brazil, lives her first years as a wife and mother traveling by van around Europe, raises her children on a subsistence farm in northern Canada and, breaking out of her marriage, travels to Mexico and Hawaii. Simonds writes about this life with a poet's attention to language and metaphor. In the exquisitely wrought title story, for instance, a leashed lion takes nocturnal walks through the halls of a Brazilian hotel, leaving ""a faint scent of feline. A memory of topaz eyes."" While the image captures a child's presentiment of sex, the story subtly suggests both the privilege and the loneliness of expatriate life. Indeed, Simonds masterfully juxtaposes her narrator's discordant feelings in all the richly layered narratives. At times, the resemblance to memoir grows irksome, as when information is withheld that might be too personal or when events are summarized that might be dramatized. More often, Simonds is brilliant in her silences, showing just enough and nothing more. Writing lapidary sentences, she has crafted stories so solid they seem sculpted, yet so delicate they remain full of mystery. (Feb.) FYI: The Convict Lover received the Arthur Ellis Award and was shortlisted for the Governor General's Award. Copyright 2000 Reed Business Information, Inc. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. This collection of interconnected short stories, published in Canada in 1999, garnered well-deserved outstanding reviews. The eleven stories are organized under the significant Yearnings, Sorrows, and Miracles in a woman's life. Although the stories are fictional, the easy-flowing first-person narration gives them the feel of a memoir. The unnamed central character, like the author, is Canadian-born and spent part of her childhood in Brazil. Both influences are reflected in Simonds' haunting prose, which is both lush and concise. The stories are seductive, melancholy and dark, sensual and sexual. Danger, assault, or loss is revealed, sometimes unexpectedly, or lurking just around the corner, just under the surface. Each chapterlike story is complete by itself; together, they tell of a woman's experiences, from childhood into her 40s--experiences of love and longing, the pain of separation and letting go, the struggle to heal after suffering. Simonds, who has won several Canadian writing awards, is the author of 10 books, including The Convict Lover, the stage adaptation of which premiered in Toronto in 1998. Grace Fill --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. An episodic history of 40 years in an unnamed woman's life, from childhood through early middle age, told in 11 subtly related stories: a debut collection by the Canadian author (new to American readers) of the highly praised recent nonfiction The Convict Lover. Simonds establishes her protagonist's dreaminess in the first (title) story, which describes a seven-year-old girl's explorations of the Brazilian hotel where her family lives while her father manages a nearby factoryspecifically, her sighting of a neighboring guest who keeps a lion in his room and calmly walks the beast through the hallway. It's a nifty image: both an expression of the child's untrammeled imagination and a fantasy of protection and empowerment. The girls later experiences often take similarly visionary form: Instruction from a beloved teacher stimulates a meditation on the likely existence of angels; trips to Mexico and Hawaii summon up an understanding of the blessings and curses of continuity, conferred by viewing the ruins of an ancient Mayan city and seeingin the specters of carnivorous tropical birdsdisturbing corollaries to ``the image that came to mind when I thought of myself: indistinct and flayed, nothing left but glistening bone and sinew. These stories' narrator is an incarnation of restlessness who phlegmatically distances herself from her family and home (in rural Ontario), sleepwalks through an itinerant marriage to a German sculptor, the father of her two sons, then separates from him and takes a lover while continuing to seek a ``home'' in the aforementioned and other foreign lands, eventually returning to Ontario, where Simonds concludes the book with a marvelous summary story, ``The Day of the Dead.'' This is a revelation of the womans encounters with death, climaxing with that of her mother and ending with a lyrical intimation of her own passing.

In a cramped apartment in Sweden, a young wife finds herself caught in the tensions between her husband and his father. A wife slips the bonds of marriage on a beach in Mexico. In a desert canyon on the island of Kauai, a woman at middle age discovers just how much she is willing to risk.

Using a relaxed, casual approach that is entirely appropriate to the subject matter, Werner covers basic instruction, surfing gear, safety, etiquette, and history. In addition, there is a fairly detailed discussion of different types of waves and of localism, the tendency of regulars at a particular surfing spot to band together to drive away outsiders. Minimizing neither the inherent difficulty in learning the sport nor the potential dangers involved, the author provides a solid and at times inspirational guide. More of a ""how to"" book than for reports, the title's usefulness may be limited to those areas where the sport is actually practiced.Richard Luzer, Fair Haven Union High School, VT Copyright 1999 Reed Business Information, Inc. This basic text provides a handy reference for those who need to learn about proper surfing technique and other fundamental information. Werner, an avid surfer from San Diego, manages to cover all the main points of the sport in its most elementary form. Chapters entitled ""Surfing Gear,"" ""The Right Waves,"" ""Before You Paddle Out,"" and ""Angling"" all get to the meat of the matter. The author then fills in the big picture by including a brief history of surfing after the lessons. A glossary of surfing terms, list of resources (magazines, organizations, etc.), and some thoughtful, useful illustrations complete the package. Werner generally eschews the cutesy surfin' safari lingo that often plagues books such as this.

Savings, investment, and education will determine who builds the next world-class economy (Europe is Thurow's prediction). Although the themes and critiques of the U.S. economy are typical Thurow (see his Zero Sum Solution , LJ 12/85), the international perspectives move this work into new territory beyond the usual U.S.-Japan comparisons. As always, Thurow has a knack for the telling phrase and the discovery of a significant trend. Highly recommended for all libraries. Previewed in Prepub Alert, LJ 12/91.- Richard C. Schiming, Mankato State Univ., Minn.Copyright 1992 Reed Business Information, Inc. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. A perceptive interpretive appraisal of the coming trilateral struggle for world dominion. Thurow (Dean/MIT-Sloan School of Management; The Zero-Sum Solution, 1985, etc.) takes a contrarian approach in predicting that Europe, not America or Japan, could prove the biggest winner in a bloodless clash that promises to shape the 21st century. At the start of 1995, Thurow notes, the EC will constitute a unified market with a well-educated population of 337 million and a GNP larger than that of the US; the addition of nonmember nations, plus erstwhile Soviet republics and/or satellites, would boost the head count to 850 million. Under German leadership, he insists, the Continent will do and pay whatever is necessary to achieve genuine integration, if only to forestall disruptive immigration flows. In the meantime, Thurow observes, corporate America's individualist, profit-maximizing enterprises are engaged in a spirited competition with the communitarian empire-builders of Japan, and the victor will determine the rules by which the great game of capitalism is played for decades to come. But having reviewed the standing of US business vis--vis that of EC and Japanese rivals in eight key industries (aircraft, consumer electronics, machine tools, semiconductor devices, etc.), the author leaves little doubt as to which country is likely to be on the losing side. Thurow closes with a comprehensive agenda designed to renew America's capacity to survive and thrive in the brave new commercial world now in prospect. A thoughtful, thoroughgoing analysis of a consequential conflict among economic superpowers, worthy of a wide readership. -- Copyright 1992, Kirkus Associates, LP.

For many chefs, nothing beats the ergonomic comfort or classic styling of fully forged cutlery in ""basic black."" Mundial's 5100 Series Black is just that. The company's oldest line of fully forged knives, it exemplifies all the expertise that Mundial has acquired through its more than 70 years of crafting gourmet knives. 5100 Series Black is fully forged from high-carbon stainless steel and features a durable polyacetal handle in the traditional three-rivet style. The Value of a Fully-Forged Knife Mundial knives, with very few exceptions, are fully forged in a manufacturing process that combines innovative technology with old-world tradition and expertise. In the forging process, steel is heated to an extremely high temperature, set into a die, and hammered into the shape of the basic blade. Following a heating and cooling process, the forged blade is ground to create a full taper to the cutting edge. The result is a stronger, thicker, more resilient blade that flares smoothly at the heel to blend into the shape of the handle. Fully forged cutlery offers an array of key benefits, including greater tensile strength, increased durability, lasting sharpness, and better balance and control. Construction Mundial's computer-aided design creates the perfect shape and balance for chopping, dicing, and slicing all types of food. The knives are fully forged from high-carbon chrome molybdenum stainless steel for the best edge retention and sharpening ease. Each knife also undergoes Mundial's computerized blade grinding and polishing process to create a precise taper from tip to bolster (the quality bolster is the main feature of any truly forged knife). Busy chefs will appreciate the ergonomically crafted handles with full tangs, which deliver comfort, balance, and durability. Every Mundial knife is also hand sharpened and individually tested for ultimate performance. Quality Control How do Mundial knives compare to other premium cutlery? In addition to its extensive quality control procedures, Mundial regularly submits its products to an international independent testing facility.

Viton has excellent heat, fuel, and chemical resistance. Viton is acceptable for temperature applications between -15 degrees F (-26 degrees C) to 400 degrees F (205 degrees C). It is compatible for use with non-flammable hydraulic fuels, silicone oil, chlorinated hydrocarbons (trichlorethylene), fuels, aromatic hydrocarbons (benzene) and aliphatic hydrocarbons (propane), as well as high vacuum environments, ozone, and weathering. Viton is vulnerable to low molecular organic acids, ammonia gas, alkalis, amines, glycol-based brake fluids, and super-heated steam. This Viton O-ring has a shore durometer of 75A. Shore durometer is the hardness of a material, and its resistance to permanent indentation. A higher durometer value indicates greater resistance to indentation on a scale of 0 to 100, with 100 indicating no indentation. O-rings commonly provide a pressure and fluid seal between cylindrically shaped, overlapping mating surfaces and are commonly seen in engines, faucets, flanges, valves and various cylinders. They are circular in shape, with a round cross section and a hole in the center, similar to a doughnut.

When they first met, James had described Thailand as ""not a bad place to live. Everyone's so friendly, everyone's always smiling. And you should see my house--hot and cold running servants, a pool, a garden..."" But upon arrival in this exotic locale--which her guidebook, too, extols as the ""Venice of the East""--Claire discovers dead dogs floating in the canals, green slime growing on the surface of the pool, and the natives polite but distant. The one person she feels an instant bond with is Jim Thompson, an American silk entrepreneur she encounters at a party. But immediately afterward, Thompson disappears during a trip to the Cameron Highlands, and Claire becomes obsessed with discovering what happened to him. Siam is a work of fiction. Jim Thompson, however, was an actual person whose disappearance in Thailand has never been solved. Tuck uses this real-life mystery to illuminate her fictional characters' relationships and motivations. It's clear from the first chapter that Claire is a young woman without a solid sense of self. She is swept quite literally off her feet and into bed within hours of first meeting James, and a good deal of what happens to her from that point on seems to occur without her active participation or consent: Several times a day Claire raised her skirt, dropped her pants. Her fingers, too, learned to unzip, to unbutton with the swiftness and skill of a lacemaker. It was not how Claire had imagined it, but there was hardly time for anything else. Though she tries hard to be a ""good guest"" in Thailand, attempting to learn the language and history of her new home, she is never truly at ease among the people. Claire's fixation on the fate of a man she met only once grows in direct proportion to her feelings of loneliness and alienation. Meanwhile, America's escalating role in the Vietnam War parallels her increasing suspicion of everyone around her, even her husband--and soon the conditions are ripe for tragedy. Tuck weaves this intricate web of fact and fiction, reality and delusion, with an assured hand and prose that seems simpler than it actually is. She captures to perfection the disorientation of strangers in a strange land, the insularity of expatriate communities, and the gulf that yawns between privileged foreigners and the people they live among. Siam, then, is both a compelling drama and a profound meditation on the political and the personal. --Sheila Bright --This text refers to the Hardcover edition. Probing the futility of good intentions and the pitfalls of cultural miscommunication, this assured and absorbing third novel by Tuck (The Woman Who Walked on Water) opens on March 9, 1967, the day the U.S. starts bombing North Vietnam from bases in Thailand. Claire, a 25-year-old Boston bride, arrives in Bangkok with her husband, James, an American engineer who builds runways in Nakhon Phanom, in northeast Thailand, for the American bombers. James's weekly trips to supervise construction leave his young, conspicuously blonde wife to fend for herself, and Claire discovers almost immediately that the luxurious lifestyle James described has an unpleasant underside. The heat is unrelenting; their pool is covered with green slime; the servants wash in a sewage-filled canal; hot peppers make most food indigestible to her. Unlike the few other American wives she meets, Claire is driven to question her surroundings, but the information she garners in hours of research at the local British library, through her daily language classes and on shopping excursions around the city is even more disturbing. Snubbed by Thai acquaintances when she tries to discuss the political situation, she turns to her husband, but insensitive James treats her as little more than a sexual object. Meanwhile, Claire becomes obsessed with legendary American entrepreneur Jim Thompson, who has disappeared while on a trip to the Highlands. Though she has met him only once, Thompson typifies to Claire all the mysterious events that seem to be going on just outside her circle of understanding. As the political and cultural climate in Bangkok grows increasingly oppressive, Claire begins to lose touch with reality, and her feverish imaginings precipitate tragedy. Tuck uses words with economy, evoking the lush locale and mysterious culture of Thailand with precise details and sensory images, and effectively contrasting the crisp, arrogant attitude of the American colony with the polite if evasive conduct of the Thai population. Her vivid, unromanticized picture of Bangkok in the late '60s is a fitting backdrop for a haunting story about the end of innocence. (Nov.) Copyright 1999 Reed Business Information, Inc. --This text refers to the Hardcover edition. Aspects of distance are explored in Tuck's latest novel. Claire, a young American woman newly married to a man involved with building airstrips for U.S. bombing planes, travels to Thailand on the eve of the Vietnam War. As she struggles to learn the language, handle servants, and deal with her husband, Claire finds herself drawn into a mystery with no solution. Her search for Jim Thompson, a man met only briefly at a dinner party, parallels the earliest beginnings of the war. A mix of lush details and loosely connected passages describe Claire's life in Thailand. As she searches for Jim, studies Thai with Miss Pat, spies on her husband, and suspects her servants of stealing, Claire becomes more and more detached from her old life and never seems to fully understand her new environment. Building at a languorous pace, Tuck presents a discordant ending that serves to underscore in the reader the sense of distance that has surrounded Claire since her flight into Siam. Neal Wyatt --This text refers to the Hardcover edition. For her third outing, Tuck (The Woman Who Walked on Water, 1996, etc.) goes to Thailand with a young American couple, both shallow enough to frustrate the reader as much as fulfill the otherwise often witty story they're a part of. On their wedding night in 1967, James and Claire fly to Bangkok, where James works for JUSMAAG (Joint United States Military Assistance Advisory Group) building airstrips in the jungle at Nakhan Phanom. When he's away doing this, the highly intelligent but excruciatingly inert Claire tries to busy herself with training the household servants (the young man Prachi must keep leaves out of the swimming pool), reading Thai history, going on tours with other JUSMAAG wives, taking language lessonsand obsessing about what really happened to Jim Thompson, the 61-year-old American silk zillionaire who now, just days after having James and Claire as dinner guests at his palatial house, has disappeared without a trace, said by some to be lost in the jungle, by others to have been snatched by the communists, and thought by Claire herself (though not until storys end) to have been kidnaped by the Americans themselves for some invidious reason vaguely connected with the growing war next door in Vietnam. As he has from page one, her new husband and egregious male chauvinist pig James denigrates and belittles this and any other ideas that Claire may haveso that her paranoia-cum-truth only festers in her own mental hothouse. Since not much more happens (aside from the event telegraphed by the book's subtitlethough even why that happens will puzzle the thoughtful), readers are left with little more than exotic atmospherewhich Tuck excels at, as she does also at Third World squalorand a building sense of the portentous without any final payoff. Deft, incisive, colorful, but by and large a tale only of echoes. -- Copyright 1999, Kirkus Associates, LP. All rights reserved. --This text refers to the Hardcover edition.

Using free verse, Newbery Medal-winning author Karen Hesse (Out of the Dust) allows 11 unique and memorable voices to relate the story of the Klan's steady infiltration into the conscience of a small, Prohibition-era community. The Klan's ""all-American"" philosophy is at first embraced by several of the town's influential men, including Constable Parcelle Johnson and retailer Harvey Pettibone. But Harvey's sensible wife, Viola, and independent restaurant owner Iris Weaver suspect from the beginning that the Klan's arrival heralds trouble. As the only African Americans in town, 12-year old Leonora Sutter and her father try to escape Klan scrutiny, while 6-year-old, city-born Esther Hirsch remains blissfully unaware of the Klan's prejudice against Jews as she enjoys the Vermont countryside. And Sara Chickering, the lady farmer who has opened her home to Esther and her father, is torn between her own hidden biases and her growing love for Esther. All, however, are galvanized towards action when a shadowy figure shoots at Esther and her father right through Sara's front door. Who would commit such an evil act? And is it too late to remove the poison that has insidiously leaked into their once tight-knit community? Part mystery, part social commentary, Hesse's historically accurate chronicle is a riveting catalyst for discussion that thoughtfully explores race and identity from every possible point of view. The free verse format and distinct characterizations also make Witness a perfect choice for library or classroom reader's theater productions. (Ages 12 and older) --Jennifer Hubert --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. The author of Out of the Dust again turns language into music in her second quietly moving novel written entirely in verse. Here, 11 narrative voices chronicle actual events occurring in a sleepy Vermont town after the arrival of the Ku Klux Klan in 1924. Those victimized by the Klan include the families of Leanora Sutter, a 12-year-old African-American girl, and Esther Hirsh, the six-year-old daughter of a Jewish shoe salesman. Rounding out the portrait of the town are community leaders (an enlightened physician, a newspaper editor who moves from neutral to anti-Klan) as well as less prominent folk shopkeepers, a Protestant minister who are swayed into joining the white supremacist group. Their chorus of hatred rings loudly at first, but is tempered by their dawning realization of the severity of the Klan's punishment to their targets as well as the more rational, compassionate strains of the Klan's opponents. Hesse offers glimpses of the world at large through references to Prohibition, the Leopold and Loeb case and a letter Leanora pens to Helen Keller. The author distinguishes the characters (whose pictures appear in the front of the book) not only by their varying opinions but also by their tone of speech. The simpler, candid language of the two youngest cast members, Leanora and Esther, effectively crystallizes their gradual loss of innocence. Easily read in one sitting, this lyrical novel powerfully records waves of change and offers insightful glimpses into the hearts of victims, their friends and their enemies. Ages 9-12. Copyright 2001 Cahners Business Information, Inc. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. Gr 6 Up-In this remarkable and powerful book, Hesse invites readers to bear witness to the Ku Klux Klan's activities in a small Vermont town in the 1920s. Using free verse as she did in Out of the Dust (Scholastic, 1997), the narrative here is expanded to encompass the voices of 11 townspeople, young and old, of various races and creeds. The story is divided into five acts, and would lend itself beautifully to performance. The plot unfolds smoothly, and the author creates multidimensional characters, all of whom seem very real. One of the least sympathetic is an 18-year-old boy who begins the book by wanting to open a classroom window to let out the smell of the black girl. By the end, he is transformed by circumstances in a thoroughly plausible way. The writing includes vivid images, such as when Leanora, the black girl, sees a burning cross. She hides in a closet: ""in that dark and narrow place,/i opened a hole for myself/but no matter how i turned,/the light from the cross/curled its bright claws under the door."" It also includes some quiet yet irreducible moments that resonate long after the book is put down. The small details seem just right, and demonstrate that this is much more than a social tract. It's a thoughtful look at people and their capacity for love and hate.Lauralyn Persson, Wilmette Public Library, ILCopyright 2001 Cahners Business Information, Inc. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. *Starred Review* Gr. 5-9. Using real events, Hesse tells a story of the Ku Klux Klan in a small town in Vermont in 1924 in the same clear free-verse as her Newbery winner, Out of the Dust (1997). This time, however, she uses 11 different voices, each one distinct, including two kids who are new to town--Leonora Sutter, 12, who is black, and Esther Hirsh, 6, who is Jewish. Then there are various adult townspeople: the violent Klan bigots (who attack ""those who are not like us"" in the name of Protestantism and patriotism), the antiracist crusaders, and the bystanders. Most interesting is Merlin, 18, who starts off in flaming hatred but changes. Then there's the affectionate married couple--he's in the Klan; she's against it. Their comic squabbles about it are fun, until you realize how serious the issue is. The story is told in five acts, and, in fact, it will work best as reader's theater. It's more a situation than a straight narrative, with too many characters and too many plot threads that aren't fully developed. But Hesse's spare writing leaves space for readers to imagine more about that time and about their own. The voices personalize the history and reveal how events felt to different people: the daily hurt (like the circus sideshow, where it's fun to take shots at the ""nigger's"" head); the lure (""the kkk / is looking to rent the town hall for their meetings / why shouldn't they?""); the opposition that refused to allow the Klan to move in.

A town that turns against its own when the Ku Klux Klan moves in.

Karen Hesse is the award-winning and critically acclaimed author of many books for children. Her titles include WITNESS, THE CATS IN KRASINSKI SQUARE, and the Newbery Medal winner OUT OF THE DUST, among many others. She lives in Vermont with her husband and two teenaged daughters. Newbery Medalist Karen Hess (OUT OF THE DUST) is an author who likes trying new things. She has written WITNESS as a drama, with a cast of characters that perfectly populate a small town in Vermont in 1924, just after the Ku Klux Klan has arrived. While the story is little hard to get into at first, this performance by a cast of 11 picks up speed after we begin to be able to identify the characters' voices (a problem the written book doesn't have). Pivotal character Esther Hirsh, a 6-year-old Jewish girl transplanted from NYC to Vermont, is given a sometimes irritating voice that sounds more mentally impaired than young. Still,the overall effect overcomes the drawbacks to pull listeners into the lively action, which includes a Klan shooting,a close call with a train, and the humorous exchanges between shopkeeper Harvey Pettibone and his droll wife, Viola. This listening experience is definitely worth having. M.C.

While in high school she started working with Jackson and Almeda Berkey (keyboardists with the group Mannheim Steamroller) who helped spark her desire in pursuing a Music Degree from Mid-America Nazarene University. While there she participated in several choirs, traveled with a small singing group, and on her vacations would record local jingles (commercials), which she says was quite an experience. After traveling with the group Willing Heart, DeAnne decided to branch out on her own as a solo artist and songwriter with Heartfelt Songs Music Group and has released two projects:September Song and Grace. She is the Vice-President and Producer for KC Christian Music, which helps promote artists across the country. She was voted Contemporary Artist of the Year at the Third Annual KCCM Awards by the general public. DeAnne and her family attend Central Church of the Nazarene in Lenexa, Kansas where for the past 17 years she has participated in the worship choir, worship team, several small groups, solos and works with the youth group as a youth sponsor and directs their music and drama. DeAnnes rich, alto voice goes well with the pop style of her music, flavored with just a hint of contemporary R influences. Her message and music appeal to almost everyone.

During his early diving years, he repeatedly discovered that something he needed to make a dive complete was simply not available. It dawned on him that if he needed that piece of gear other divers did, too. In 1976, he began the company with his wife and co-founder Arline, an airline stewardess, while he continued his advertising and industrial-design business. From that inception as a small garage operation, Pelican has blossomed into an international marketing and manufacturing firm.

His stark tunes caught the ear of Neil Young and set off a wild bidding war, though Hayden ended up signing to the fledgling Outpost label for one record. 2001's Skyscraper National Park is everything that Hayden's Outpost disaster, The Closer I Get, was not. While the major-label disc buried the gruff songwriter's melodies beneath big-budget dross, Skyscraper National Park puts Hayden back in his home studio, playing most of the instruments himself and reconnecting with what made him interesting in the first place. Songs like ""Streetcar"" return to the mope-pop of earlier albums, while the surprisingly funky ""Tea Pad"" mixes psychedelic fuzz with a shuffle beat. A welcome return. --Matt Galloway Skyscraper National Park is the welcome return of Hayden from self-imposed three-year exile of silence. His previous Outpost/Geffen albums, Everything I Long For and The Closer I Get earned him a ""vital"" tag from the tastemakers at Spin, and his contribution of the title track to Steve Buscemi's Trees Lounge cemented his cult following. Hayden has since evolved into a near-mythical legend, subject to Bigfoot-like sightings and rumors of activity. His fans refuse to accept his absence as a permanent situation, and optimistically speculate about new releases just around the corner. They are finally correct.Hayden relies on his instincts and does what feel s most natural; honesty is the guiding principle of his guileless, gimmick-free songwriting. Skyscraper National Park, which the Toronto Sun calls ""his best work yet,"" is raw and bleak, yet warm and bright. From a high falsetto to a low growl, from a distant piano and thin guitar to lush strings and horns, Hayden traverses the span of wide-open spaces to solitary introspection. Heartbreak and comfort rub elbows in the light and in the shadows.

Each knife was expertly crafted from high-carbon, no-stain steel in Solingen, Germany, the cutlery capital of the world. For higher precision and edge integrity, the blades were laser cut instead of stamped. Each Wusthof blade is precisely tempered to hold its edge for a great length of time, so external maintenance is rarely required. The knives' unique compound angles taper from the spines to the edges, allowing for sturdy, yet extremely sharp edges. They also taper from the bolsters to the tips to give the knives strength and flexibility. Each knife features a riveted handle with a contoured shape for comfort and control. Washing by hand is recommended for best care. From the Manufacturer Silverpoint II Series View larger. Silverpoint II Cutlery Series In the culinary world variety and preparing something outstanding is the key to success. Due to this, Wusthof offers more than 350 different kinds of knives to be able to provide the perfect knife for everyone. No matter which kind of blade and handle shape you are thinking of--Wusthof has the right knife for all your needs. Types of Blades The Right Blade for Every Purpose The edge is the business end of a knife. It is skillfully honed by hand and incredibly sharp. For different cutting tasks different blade shapes and edges are recommended. The Differences: Straight-edge blade: The straight edge allows a smooth and clean cut. When carving no fibres are torn out of the meat. This edge can be used for firm and soft food like meat, vegetables and fruit. Serrated-edge blade: The wavy or serrated edge allows an easy cut through crusty food like a traditional roast and crispy bread. Hollow-edge blade: When cutting an air pocket is created between the hollow edge and the slice. This prevents the food from sticking to the blade and allows for finer slices. Laser technology cuts steel into precise shapes. View larger. Modern Manufacturing With modern manufacturing techniques, Wusthof is using laser cutting to craft its stamped knives. Laser cutting is a technology that uses a laser to cut steel in precise shapes. Laser cutting works by directing the output of a high-power laser, by computer, at the steel being cut. The material then burns away, leaving an edge with a high-quality surface finish. The remaining processes are similar to the manufacturing of forged knives. Automated steps ensure precise results. View larger. Perfectly sharpened blade. View larger. Stamped knives are usually thinner, lighter and lack a little of the balance of forged knives; therefore, requiring a firmer grip and more pressure when chopping and mincing. They are usually priced lower than forged cutlery, because the process can be performed at incredible speeds and reduced labor and material costs. Today, high-quality stamped knives deliver excellent cutting and ability and light-weight maneuverability favored by some cooks. Precisely cut with the latest state-of-the-art laser technology A wide assortment offers you knives for all purposes For professional chefs and home cooking enthusiasts Manufactured from one piece of steel (Chrom Molybdenum Vanadium) Extraordinary sharpness is easy to maintain Comfortable synthetic full-tang handle for all blades longer than 12 cm Made in Solingen, Germany Limited lifetime warranty Cleaning & Storage Proper care for long-lasting cooking enjoyment If you value your tools, we recommend washing your knives with warm, soapy water after each use. Rinse carefully and dry with a towel. For proper storage we recommend the following options: Knife blocks in a variety of shapes, colors and configurations. The handy knife block provides protection for your blades as well as a visual compliment to your kitchen decor. Magnet Bars in wood, synthetic material or aluminum.
