ReggaeRon.JPGFirst, we take you back to the origins of reggae music in late-1950s Jamaica with our Classic Ska station. You’ll hear the artists that paved the way for rocksteady and reggae music, including Jackie Mittoo, Laurel Aitken, The Skatalites and The Paragons. Or you can check out the Rocksteady station, which features music that originated in Jamaica around 1966. On this station, you’ll hear jams from Toots & The Maytals, Freddie McGregor, Horace Andy and The Ethiopians. The rocksteady craze only lasted a couple of years but was a major influence on reggae music as a genre.

Another hugely popular Reggae sub-set, Dancehall gained momentum in the late 70s and is still vibrant today. Artists on Pandora’s Dancehall radio include Beenie Man, Sly & Robbie, Gyptian and Vybz Kartel. If you’re into instrumental reggae remixes, with lots of reverb, echo and other interesting early production techniques, check out our Dub station, which features artists such as Augustus Pablo, Lee Scratch Perry, King Tubby and Dub Specialist.

Pandora’s Reggae Rock radio is a new station for us that features a lot of the music that exploded in the 90s through the fusion of reggae, rock, ska, and hip hop. Artists on this station include Sublime, Slightly Stoopid, 311 and No Doubt. On the other hand, the Contemporary Reggae station spotlghts the artists who are keeping reggae music alive today, including Damian Marley, Matisyahu, Ini Kamoze and Sean Paul.

Lastly, Pandora’s Reggae radio is where you’ll hear the icons of “Roots Reggae” music like Bob Marley, Gregory Isaacs, Peter Tosh, Steel Pulse and Jimmy Cliff. Also, Pandora’s Ska station plays a mix of classics from The Skatalites, Dandy Livingstone, Soul Vendors, The Slackers and other two tone and third wave ska bands.

We hope you enjoy the riddems!

Tuesday, March 15, 2005

Today began well enough, cool and clear with one dying in the tent next
to us. (That would have been too creepy). But shortly after breakfast we
were informed by the 'powers that be' that we had to move our camping
tent across the road and move our selling tent back four feet. This
would suck big time. I found the proper officials and did some
negotiating. The end result was we only had to move our sales tent over
12 feet. Much less suck. A little flattery at the right time can do

Sales were good until the rains came. We had to dig impromptu trenches
and then decided to close up and nap. Naps are good

The rain has continued, but a good dinner at Phils Grill and some
cheesecake makes all right with the world. Right now a german group
called Wolgemut is playing in the food area nearby. They are great
musicians and good showmen. Lots of energy, people dancing and clapping
to the rythems. We're safe and dry in our tent now, maybe the rain will
stop tomorrow, maybe it won't.

Say the funnist button today "No matter how sick the pope gets, they
won't take him to Lourdes". Rossana almost pee'd herself when she heard

Jim Tressel and Ohio State are just a symptom of corrupt collegiate sports

Jim Tressel adorns the cover of the June 6th edition of Sports Illustrated for all the wrong reasons.

In sports and politics, you can run from improprieties but you can’t hide. It eventually catches up to you, as it did to Ohio State coach Jim Tressel when he resigned Monday on the eve of a Sports Illustrated expose that detailed various rules infractions by students that he knowingly overlooked.

Tressel has a long and documented history of denial. He didn’t know that a star quarterback at Youngstown received more than $100,000 and a new car from Trustees, even though he told him to go see those same Trustees for guidance. He didn’t know about Maurice Clarett‘s litany of rules violations, gifts, and downward spiral, despite professing that he spent more time with the troubled athlete than any other player under his tenure. Sure, mistakes were made, but it was okay because he was More Than a Coach as a biography of the man proclaimed. He was revered as a dignitary, downright saintly even, by not just fans of THE Ohio State University but sports fans in general. It was all an elaborate fiction, though, as the Sports Illustrated piece revealed. Tressel wasn’t clean, he was crafty, and he got away with it because sports fans and many in the sports media are amongst the most easily deceived and gullible people on the face of the planet.

The truly astounding revelation isn’t that a beloved father figure in sports was exposed as a fraud. It’s that the sports media is so scandalized by transgressions in an inherently corrupt system known as the NCAA. The problem is bigger than Tressel, new cars from Trustees, new houses for parents, shady scholarship grants, and people looking the other way. The problem lies in an amateur collegiate sports program that rakes in untold millions of dollars for corporations, Universities, broadcast networks, cable outlets, and the NCAA as a whole on the backs of kids who are given conflicting messages: you are not allowed to reap what benefits we reap from your sacrifices and talents, but take it if you can get it.

Fans of college sports can and will use whatever warped reasoning they have for their continued and undying support of programs that create ethical quandaries and use up young men like cattle, grinding them out and dumping them off without providing anything resembling real world experience or realistic expectations for what lie ahead. They’ll tell you that these kids all know what they’re getting into, that they’re old enough to know right from wrong, and after all, they’re over eigteen years of age and as such are culpable for their behavior. All of which is true, to a point; if any of them commit a crime, they’ll stand trial as adults. That reasoning, though, applies uneven standards and expectations on young, spoiled minds that are told they’re superstars. Not that they’re going to be superstars, but that they already are.  They’re told by people in positions of power, authority, and prestige that they deserve these things that are given to them, because after all, they’re valuable commodities.

Some will say that Tressel should not be held accountable for the actions of others, and that the worst he did was look the other way so that these young men’s futures weren’t jeopardized. That, however, is a gross misreading of the circumstances and willfull ingnorance of his history. More than that, though, it continues the practice of self-deception in the mainstream when it comes to college sports, which are ideally supposed to be held in that order of esteem: college first, then sports. The reality, though, is that certain sports come first. I wouldn’t deign to call it sports college, though, because that infers there’s something of value at the end of it for many of the players. The sad truth is that a great disservice is done to the athletes participating in the major sports programs through a culture of exploitation and lack of ethics in the NCAA.

For far too long, the mainstream sports media has engaged in an attitude that the ends justify the means and that the revenue brought in every year by big-time football and basketball programs only makes those colleges better and gives opportunities to other programs and students where they otherwise may not exist, as if this is somehow impossible without comprimising things like ethical behavior and personal responsibility. Those same apologists, writing columns for major news organizations, will then go on ESPN and crow about the ruination of baseball vis a vis the steroid era, the bad behavior of NFL players, the egos and brazeness of NBA players openly colluding with other players in direct violation of policy en route to a championship, and all the other things that have contributed to a time where role models are few and the concept itself is all but discouraged.

The bottom line is that it all starts somewhere, and it’s with men like Jim Tressel and programs like Ohio State. Let’s not pretend, however, that this incident is isolated. We need to start asking some real questions about not only the accepted behaviors behind the scenes as a whole but also why we’re so willing to look the other way when it doesn’t do anyone any good, especially the players themselves.

Suggestions for celebratory Manhattan lunch?

A reader writes:

We are going to Manhattan on a Saturday in early May and want to take our grown children out for a late (2 PM) lunch to celebrate an anniversary. There will be 8 of us, all adults. One of the family has an aversion to Indian spices but that’s the only limitation.

We’d prefer to stay between the Upper West Side and Hell’s Kitchen, in a place where you are not crammed together and where there is a delight in the food and the customers, but not a pretentious reverence — good food, not a sacrament; guests, not mendicants seeking approval.

If Jack’s Oyster House, Yono’s, the Victory Cafe, and Garden Bistro 24 were to create a wonderful hybrid, that would be ideal.

    I HIGHLY recommend the two-plate special ($38) at Jean-Georges for a special occasion lunch. Hopefully they can accommodate the size of your party, this place is truly amazing and world renowned. It is at the south-western corner of Central Park, has tremendous views and I believe it is within your geographic area. You really can’t get a fancier NYC lunch experience for anywhere near the price.

    Lunch Menu:

  2. ravioliollie says:

    The I Truli, which is on 17th St. off Park Avenue is a great low brow/casual place though it downtown. also the Beacon on 52nd St.(I believe). Chef Waldy Malouf does a nice job.

  3. socrates says:

    Da Tomasso’s is in the area, great brunch an plenty of room. Like 58 and 8th.

  4. TrojanMorse says:

    Da Andrea, a secret little place o’mine, is both cheap and tasty, with homemade pasta.

    Sorry Steve, I had forgotten you had written about Jean-Georges lunch deal before:

    I remember when it used to be $29…

  5. G™ says:

    Not on the upper west but I had a large group at Osso Buco (93rd and 3rd) a few weeks ago and it was amazing. Service was good, food was excellent. No complaints from anyone in the party.

    Landmarc at the Time Warner Center. Great lunch menu, get the chicken burger with gruyere. They will seat 8 beautifully.

  6. Andrew says:

    Though not in the desired neighborhood, I had a spectacular brunch at The Stanton Social. The menu, which is comprised of small plates, was fun and diverse. Great food and a great atmosphere.

  7. AddiesDad says:

    Here are a few suggestions (I’ve eaten at all of these, and the food/service is well above average):
    -The Smith (Lincoln Center)
    -Landmarc (Time Warner Center)
    -Nick & Toni’s (one of my fave places in NYC)
    -The Atlantic Grill

  8. Bricco on 56th & 8th is fabulous! Food & service is exceptional. I have been there many times over the years, it has everything that you are looking for.

  9. Tom says:

    Just a caution that many NYC restaurants do not serve lunch on Saturday. I’m sure you will carefully check the serving hours of potential sites and find a restaurant that will satisfy your requirements. Enjoy!

  10. G™ says:

    Another vote for Marea, they have a dish with crab, prosciutto and pear that’s freakin’ incredible.

    Good call, AddiesDad.

  11. countrygirl says:

    totally agree Andrew on Stanton Social and would also recommend Jane in the east village–both are on open table but may be too far south for this person.

  12. peggy says:

    Every time I’m in NYC I go to Angus McIndoe on W.44th Street next to the St. James Theatre – food is great, reasonable, breakfast all day, raw bar. Look it up on line – you won’t be disappointed. Great menu!

  13. Faith says:

    Otto at 1 Fifth Ave by Washington Park. Amazing Italian food and fairly priced with an extensive wine menu (if thats your thing). Pizzas for 1 or to share, and plenty of traditional Italian dishes. Opened by Mario Battali – SO Yummy! We make our reservations on and have never had to wait more than 5 minutes upon arrival for a table

The first big story of 2011: Oprah’s network to launch

Media mogul Oprah Winfrey expands her brand on Jan. 1 as she launches her own TV network, OWN. (That’s short for Oprah Winfrey Network.) As soon as that ball drops in Times Square, you can flip on over to her new channel, though the content will just be a bunch of teases for the first 12 hours or so. But it still might be better than those after midnight guests on Dick Clark. The real programming begins at noon with Oprah’s Guide to OWN. (OK, so I guess that’s still not real programming, but it IS Oprah.) OK, maybe the real programming starts with the sneak peek at “Kidnapped by the Kids,” a show in which workaholic parents have to spend time with their kids (watching OWN?). Then next up is “Oprah Presents Master Class,” which are profiles on the best of the best. First up is Jay Z. Next on the show will be Diane Sawyer. Other shows will feature Dr. Phil, Dr. Laura Berman, Suze Orman, Dr. Mehmet Oz and Gayle King. Plus, Oprah will search for the next star on a competition series. And a behind-the-scenes series will look at the final season of Oprah. What do you think of OWN? Are you ready for an entire network of spiritual, feel-good self-help shows? And what can they add to the slate? (I’m being serious here…, so no suggestions for a “Family Guy” spinoff.)

    Excellent event, excellent entertainment ranging from the dynamic garage band Mysteios to the vocal powerhouse Erin Harkes. The highlight, Paula Cole, like a mystical experience as the sun tipped behind the stage. It is great that she is back performing and that her new songs are as good as the songs that she is known for that are now 15 years old. AND what a voice….

    A great day was had by all. Kudos to the people who made it happen.

  2. Jay Walker says:

    In addition to the performances the street art was amazing. Each panel was beautiful in its own way. I was also surprised by the size of the festival. It was surprisingly large with lots to see.

  3. TMP says:

    Erin Harkes band was great!

How to Ace Your Next Presentation

Greg McKeown

New York Times Bestselling Author

Mr. Frost, my superb economics teacher in England, once shared the story of two people talking about a lecture given by the late Milton Friedman, the father of Monetarism. The first said, “Twenty years ago, I went to the worst lecture I’ve ever heard! Friedman gave it and I still remember how he just muttered on and on and all I could make out was the word ‘money.’” The second man responded, “If you can remember what the key message was some twenty years later, I think it might be the best lecture you ever heard!”

Indeed, Friedman’s singular message — that by controlling the supply of money, you can stabilize the whole economy — became, arguably, the most impactful economic theory of the second half of the 20 century. The point I wish to emphasize is not an economic one, but a human one: if you try to say too many things, you don’t say anything at all.

It is clear, in the conference keynotes that I give anyway, that if we take on too many subjects, the message will not be remembered 20 days later, never mind 20 years later. The communication challenge is immense: often such events are packed with a dozen different speakers, each with a plethora of ideas. Then there is the digital distraction of the participants’ smart phones within easy reach. According to research reported in TIME magazine, the average phone user unlocks their phone 110 times a day and at the highest levels, 900 times a day. The best compliment I everreceived from a conference organizer was that she had not seen one person reach for a digital device during my presentation. That doesn’t happen every time, of course. But through trial and error over many years, I have learned a few lessons about ensuring that the essential message is heard amidst all the nonessential noise:

1. You can’t communicate what you haven’t defined. I was once asked to work with an executive team who wanted to find a sticky message for a new initiative they wanted to run. But after interviewing a series of executives involved, all on video, I realized the problem was really a strategy problem dressed up as a communications problem. They couldn’t communicate the message with greater effectiveness until they defined their message with greater clarity. And that meant making decisions about what their initiative was and what it was not. I have found that designing a message around the following helps: “I am teaching [this narrow subject] to [this specific audience] in order that they [clear learning objective/call to action].”

2. Lose the slides and have a conversation. I recently spoke at SXSW, a conference held in Austin, Texas that attracts thousands of creative movers and shakers.When I spoke, there was standing room only and a palpable energy. Sensing the pulse in the room, I killed the slides and just had a conversation. Basically, I asked one question: “Why are otherwise intelligent people tricked by the trivial?” Lots of people shared their thoughts and we riffed on each of the comments, which ranged from “We’ve been trained from our first days in school to do what we’re told without question,” to “We have so many things to do, we’re overwhelmed.”

Then, instead of simply moving on to another question, I led the conversation back to the same one. We just kept going deeper on the same question and the conversation in turn became richer. Slides would have inhibited that conversation. One person said afterwards that the session had been the highlight of SXSW for him; another said it was the most interactive session of the whole event. Slides lead people to lean back in their seats while a conversation causes them to lean forward and engage.

3. Kill your darlings. Stephen King has written that in order for a story to come to life, you must “kill your darlings, kill your darlings, kill your darlings, even when it breaks your egocentric little scribbler’s heart, kill your darlings.” The same type of self-editing can be applied to telling stories. Jack Dorsey, the CEO of Square and co-founder of Twitter, thinks his primary job is to be the Chief Editor of the company in order to “present one cohesive story to the world.”

4. Be repetitive without being boring. Alastair Campbell, the communications advisor to Tony Blair for years, explained at a CIPR conference the challenge we face today in getting a message through in our noisy world: You’re in a huge room with a wall on the far side that’s painted white. Your job is to paint it blue using only the paint gun in your hand. You shoot a single ball and it hits the wall on the other side and makes the tiniest blue mark. You’ve got your message out there once, but it’s still drowned out. So you shoot another ball over. Then another and another and another. You keep going with great persistence until you look over there and the wall starts to look as if you aren’t sure if it’s white or blue. This, according to Campbell, is the best you can hope for.

But before you can be repetitive, you have to decide on the one message you want to hammer home – which means prioritizing. When the word priority came into the English language in the 1400s, it was singular. What did it mean? The very first or prior thing. It continued to have that useful definition for the next five hundred years. However, in the 1900s we pluralized the term and started speaking of priorities. But can we really have many first or prior things? Words can be potent enough to change the world, but if we try to share too many different messages, we water down the power of our message.

Whether you’re an executive preparing to give a high stakes keynote or an event organizer (which might be the most underappreciated job out there), you want participants to be impacted and inspired. You want a home run, not another forgettable talk. You want participants coming up to you months—or years—later thanking you for giving that talk or bringing in that speaker. It can be done, if you practice the disciplined pursuit of less, but better. That is the price for having people say, “That was the best lecture I’ve ever heard.”

Greg McKeown’s new book has become an instant New York Times and Wall Street Journal bestseller. Order Essentialism: The Disciplined Pursuit of Less today and learn how to say and no less but accomplish more.

Jeff ParksMusikfest this year marks the first since festival founder Jeff Parks, who’s now president of ArtsQuest, the organization that oversees the 10-day festival in Bethlehem announced in January that in December that he will officially retire Jan. 5, 2015, with his successor in place by January 2014.

                                                                                Jeff Parks
                                                                                To retire Jan. 5, 2015

That means as Parks starts the 29th Musikfest today, he has just three more festivals at the helm.

In a recent interview, Parks was asked whether he will approach this year any differently.

“I think the only different mindset I have — on both good days and bad days — is ‘enjoy every day,' “ Parks said, laughing. “And that goes for every day of the year. So that’s the major thought I have. I'm just going to enjoy what happens [and] deal with it.

“We certainly have goals and I'd like to get some things more financially settled before I retire. But I'm looking forward to Musikfest. And frankly, I don't have much of an assigned role during the festival anymore. I work with sponsors and donors and certainly want the opportunity to go around and greet and thank volunteers.

“But it's not like the old days, where I was setting up tables and chairs and pouring beer every night. So my main goal is to deal with what comes and appreciate the fact that I won’t be doing it in a few years. And so I might as well enjoy everything that’s being offered at this point.”

New Providence’s Cattano Steps Aside

By Jerry Carino

Staff Writer

          Art Cattano has resigned after one successful season at the helm ofNew Providence High School’s football program.
Balancing duties with his longtime job as the Pioneers’ boys basketball coach—a combination rarely seen in this day and age—“just turned out to be a little too much,” he said.

           “My gut instinct when I was first asked to do it was, ‘It can’t be done,’ and it turned out to right, at least in terms of me,” Cattano said Wednesday.

          Cattano was a football assistant for 32 years and served with distinction as offensive coordinator under legendary coach Frank Bottone, who retired last December after winning the North 2 Group I title. He was Bottone’s hand-picked successor.

          “I said to Frank when he first asked me, ‘Basketball, if you do it right, is 12 months out of the year as it is,’” Cattano said. “I know I could do it in-season, but it’s all the other stuff. When you’re in charge there’s a lot of stuff going on in the offseason, whether it’s grades or paperwork.”

         New Providenceposted a 9-2 record this past fall, advancing to the North 2 Group I semifinal before losing to Cedar Grove 20-14.

          “This was not a rash decision,” Cattano said. “I was thinking about it as the season was going on. I felt like when I took the job, I did it for the program, not for myself. I thought it would be best for the kids, an easy transition.”

          He added, “It was just a lot of stress for me and my family. I was worried about my health, just not enjoying it.”

          Cattano, who is in his 29th season as the boys basketball head coach, said he would consider staying on as the football team’s offensive coordinator if circumstances allowed.

          “It depends on who gets the head job, whether I want to work for them—or they want me to work for them,” he said. “I enjoyed doing that a lot.”

AUS Student Court Ruling: WTF?

Maybelline's Color Sensational Lipstick in Coral Tonic (422) - Review + Swatches!

Another review for you all today! I got sucked into the 3 for 2 offer at Maybelline so I ended up picking this bad boy up, and SPOILER ALERT - I love it!

First of all the packaging is lovely, I love how the colour changes for each colour of lipstick, so for a pink lipstick the lid would be pink but because this is more of a coral/red colour, the lid is red, which I love, it gives each lipstick a more unique packaging.

I am totally in love with this simple classical silver tube, with the square base; it makes storage a lot easier. It also just looks super pretty and it's easy to throw in your bag, without the worry of it opening and getting ruined.

On the lips it is a coral/red colour, it is super bright which I love and the colour pay off is incredible. The consistency is good and it is not sticky on the lips.. And it smells EXACTLY LIKE PLAYDO! I absolutely love the smell of playdo (I sound so weird right now) so if you don't like the scent of playdo then this isn't for you, but when it is on your lips the smell disappears. It stays on well, although you will have to bring it along with you if you are going out because it will wear off throughout the day, and I like my lipstick to be quite vibrant all day so I definitely need touch ups every now and then, which I don't mind; the pros outweigh the cons with this product!

Overall I am very happy with this product, I will be going back to Superdrug to purchase some other colours, I think there is a 2 for £10 deal on at the moment.. Tempting!! I hope you all have a wonderful day and I will talk to you very soon.

Hannah, xx

WIP - Crochet - Farm Blanket

The photos below are the colours for the background squares for my current blanket.

Olive green yarn from Spotlight.
Sorry the colour looks much nicer in real life. The photo looks washed out.
I wasn't sure if I had enough of this olive yarn (o_0) so I ordered some online yesterday morning.
Let's hope it doesn't take too long to get here. I am still hoping that I have the right amount already. If not I will just start on the appliqués until it arrives.
I still need to complete two and a half squares then I'm done.

The Water Goes Drip-Drop - ch7

Translator: ayszhang
Proofreaders: Gwen and Red

Since we know you all are just itching to find out what's happened to Xiao Yu (gasps)!
Here's chapter 7!!!

Chapter 7

It’s already morning when I come to. And I’m lying on an infirmary cot again.

It felt like I only fell asleep from fatigue. Like I grabbed some dreamless shut-eye and woke up. But the guys don’t seem to think so. Yuan Fei called my name loudly and woke up Chief and Glooms. And that…thing disappeared without a trace when they did. But they couldn’t get me to wake up from my ‘sleep’ so they had to call the caretaker in the end and caused a scene again. The doctor who got called in the middle of the night couldn’t figure out what was wrong with me and made me stay overnight.

Chief says that Yuan Fei almost called the ambulance but the school got him to stop in time.

Hah. I doubt they want to raise any more attention from anyone. Two unsolvable homicides. Victims from the same dorm. And now a third dorm member unconscious. I’d be surprised if the school didn’t cover this up and called the ambulance for me instead, disregarding its endangered prestige in return for the safety of a student.

“You feeling any better?”

Yuan Fei’s eyes are red. His face is covered with stubble. He looks like one of those hobos under bridges instead of that good-looking fellow he usually is. Curious, I reach out and rub his chin. He’s probably ticklish and his features soften as he starts chuckling.

“Sunny, how did you end up on Casanova’s bed?” Wu Fan leers. “Were you sleepwalking or something?”

Yuan Fei’s face turns red. I bet mine did too; my cheeks are burning.

“Wu Fan, don’t we still have files to look through?” Xu Ping interrupts casually. “Xiao Yu should be fine now so let’s get back to business.”

“Oh, alright. I guess he’s okay. You keep an eye on him, Yuan Fei.”

Yuan Fei nods and Chief and Glooms leave the infirmary. He grabs my hands the moment they disappear and places them against his cheek. I can feel him shaking.

“I thought…. Thank goodness you’re okay.”

I feel all warm and fuzzy when I recall him begging for me while he himself was terrified. I hold onto his hands as well.

“Am I next?” I whisper.

“No!” His grip tightens and his breathing quickens. “I’m not gonna leave you outta my sight for a second from now on. I’m not gonna let him get to you.”

“Yuan Fei…”

I feel an indescribable emotion. Even if that thing appeared this instant and Yuan Fei was to ditch me, I’d still feel grateful for the incredible amount of warmth and security he’s giving me right now. Under his concerned gaze, I sense a complication in our relationship. Friendship love? More like familial love? Or is it…

Somehow I get kind of embarrassed and start chuckling.

I change the subject. “I’m okay now so let’s head back to our dorm while there’s class. We’re gonna be like zoo exhibitions again if we go during break.”

Yuan Fei keeps inquiring about how I’m feeling and all that. Frustrated but thankful, I answer all his questions and only then does he seem at ease. He then helps me off the bed like I’m some patient coming out of ICU. It’s amusing but I still feel warm and fuzzy inside.

Just when I’ve put my shoes on, the school doctor comes into the room. After a procedural check, he prescribes some token medication (vitamins), reminds me to rest well and dismisses me.

The doctor’s fleeting glances are entertaining. It’s as if he’s unsure of himself. I guess he’s not that skilled in his trade and lost a lot of face because he couldn’t diagnose me. No wonder he hasn’t looked me straight in the eyes this whole time.

“Does the doctor feel bad for me or something?”

“Nope.” He scoffs. “It’s because people are saying we’ve been cursed like the Ring or something. 100% death rate. No age limit. No nothing. At any rate, we’re more deadly than SARS in their eyes.”

“Thank goodness the phone didn’t ring before it all.” I burst out laughing. “Or else it’d be One Missed Call 2006: NY version!”

Yuan Fei starts laughing too. And I laugh even louder. Our laughter seems extra loud in the quiet campus. There are students looking at us from their classrooms. The P.E. class out of the field stare at us in unison. Yuan and I walk away without a care with our arms on each other’s shoulders.

It’s kind of a mutual agreement. Something only we from Room 308 would know. The more they think the ‘survivors’ of 308 should spend the rest of our time in fear then the more we need to show them. That we haven’t been defeated by horror. That we’re actually ridiculing this misfortune, ridiculing those nosy bystanders, and ridiculing those people who’re waiting for a good show.

This is what you call human nature. People plaster it everywhere when they’re not the ones involved. They wait and watch like curious children at the zoo because they don’t know us, because they’re not in danger in any way. If that’s the case, why should we cooperate and give them their show? Why should we give them the opportunity to sigh in pity and say, ‘Wow, look how unsettled they are?’

They wouldn’t understand the pain of watching your friends leave, one by one. They wouldn’t know of the terror of waiting for the unknown in the dark. They certainly haven’t experienced the hysteria when you’re on the border of insanity. Neither do they know that the shriek stuck in your mouth would mean the downfall of your mental psyche. They couldn’t even grasp the helplessness you feel in the face of death.

It’s like an invisible moat that separates us and them into completely different worlds. We’re living under the same sky and speaking the same language, yet we have nothing to talk about, let alone any communication on a personal level. Even if they can tell we’re unsettled.

We get back to an empty dorm. A water stain below Yuan Fei’s bed—above Mu Mu’s—immediately catches my attention. All the heart-wrenching memories come rushing back. The water stain by Kong Linglin’s bed. The water stain by Cubs’ bed. Why did I make the same mistake again?

It certainly did stand beside the bed where Yuan Fei and I were sleeping in but the bottom bunk is Mu Mu’s. The water seeping through the wall is slowly traveling down to his bed. He is the target!

“Where’s Mu Mu? Where’s Mu Mu?!”

I grab onto Yuan Fei and shake him like crazy. I don’t know what to do. I definitely don’t know what to do when I do find Mu Mu. I’m just shouting out of instinct.

I think he got affected by me because his expression tenses up. “Chief called him this mornin’. Said he’ll take the bus home today so he’ll probably be back to pack.”

Just then, the door opens and Mu Mu comes walking in. He stops for only a moment when he sees us before getting his keys out and opening his locker. He keeps his head down as he packs.

“Mu Mu!”

Before I realise, I’ve grabbed onto him, startling him. I have no idea how to explain to him so I yell out the only thing I can think of.

“Run! Run!”

Mu Mu’s face turns sour and he pushes me away.

“…the fuck is wrong with you?”

“You’re next! You’re next!”

I don’t have the capacity to process that saying this will upset him. I can only try to raise his awareness of the danger. Even if I know we’re still helpless no matter what I say. I know Mu Mu left school these days because he was scared. I know letting Mu Mu know won’t help anything. But I don’t want to just keep this in anymore. I’m scared something will go wrong again. Even if I’m wrong, even if it’s me and Yuan Fei next.,I do not want what happened to Cubs to happen again!

Perhaps this moment will be the turning point of this tragedy? Perhaps Mu Mu will stay out of danger because of his raised caution? Perhaps this curse will dissipate once it’s been revealed? Perhaps there really will be a miracle?

Instantly, my mind fills with a million, a billion notions. Good ones, bad ones, terrifying ones, hopeful ones…

“What’re ya talkin’ about?” His face pales. Maybe I scared him. “You bastard. Are you tryna scare me? ‘Cuz I left for a coupla days?”

“No. No.” I shake my head furiously.

He tries to get away but I don’t dare to let him go. I’m scared that I’ll lose him once and for all if I do. He, on the other hand, starts getting frustrated and tries his hardest to pry my hands off. Soon we’re tangled together. Yuan Fei snaps out of his daze and jumps in to help.

“Listen to me!” I roar. Only then does Mu Mu stop struggling.

I take a shaky breath and explain. “Listen here. This stain isn’t a coincidence. I did my research. There’s no leak. Not at 308. Definitely not at 501 either. You know very well there’s nothing on the other side of this wall!

“I’ve seen it. The first time it appeared beside Kong Linglin’s bed. The water seeped towards his bed. And it got him. The second time it appeared beside Cubs’ and my bed. The water seeped towards Cubs’ bed. And it got Cubs. The third time it appeared beside Yuan Fei and your bed. And it’s seeping towards your bed-.”

Mu Mu suddenly kicks me in the stomach. So hard I crash into a table and fall onto the floor.

“Xiao Yu!” Yuan Fei hurries to my side. He yells at Mu Mu, “Are you outta your mind? Xiao Yu’s worried for you!”

“Then why is it me?! Why not you?!” Mu Mu screams.

Yuan Fei looks on, stunned.

“There’re so many other people in our dorm! Why did it pick me? Why me?! You two played too. Why the hell are you fine? Why?”

Hearing his words, Yuan Fei and I fall silent. What should we say to him? I don’t know. Words mean nothing to someone who has lost control in the face of death.

“Mu Mu, every one of us is in danger, and is afraid of being chosen.” I can sense anger coming from Yuan Fei’s voice as he speaks. “But could you please at least hold yourself as a proper human being until the end and not show the ugliest side of yourself?”

“Hah! You think I’m ugly? What? You expect me to calmly thank you for cursing me to die?”

He rips his drawer out and dumps everything on his bed. He spits as he packs everything away like the wind. “I’m not staying here a second longer! You two just go on acting your play. Leave me out of your fake tears!”

“The police told us not to leave the city after Cubs’ incident,” Yuan Fei says matter-of-factly.

“Like I give a damn!”

Mu Mu slams the locker doors shut. His expression is one of insanity, one full of contempt and arrogance.

“Cubs had left too...” Yuan Fei hints.

That’s right. Cubs had left too. But he couldn’t escape this curse either.

Mu Mu’s hands falter for a moment before he zips his backpack shut. Without a moment’s hesitation, he swings it on his back and heads out the door. I’m watching him dumbly. I want to say something but my words fail me.

He stops beside me and says emotionlessly.

“You don’t hafta look at me like that, Sunny. If you were in my shoes, you wouldn’t be any better. Might even be worse.”

“Shut up! If you’re gonna leave just leave! Don’t compare him with the likes of you!"

Yuan Fei wraps me in his arms as if he’s trying to protect me. He glares at Mu Mu as thought he hates his very existence. Mu Mu frowns as he studies us. I thought he spotted something but the next moment he scoffs and leaves out the door.

My heart seems to tremble.

Perhaps he has sensed it because he’s holding me tighter.

“Xiao Yu, don’t listen to him. People like him don’t deserve your concern.” Yuan Fei comforts me in a low voice. “He was the one who wanted to play so badly. He was also the first one to ditch when shit hit the fan. Now he’s attacking his friends. People like him should just die. No one’d miss them. He deserves what’s coming.”

“Stop! Just stop!” I push him away and curl up into a ball.

“Stop it!” I cover my ears. “Don’t fight. Don’t blame each other. Stop it. I don’t want this.”

“Sorry Xiao Yu. I’ll stop. I’m sorry.” He keeps apologizing.

My eyes rim with tears when I see his stricken expression. I look down. How could I tell him that my silence was not because I was sad but because I couldn’t object to Mu Mu’s accusations?

Because I already saw the evil inside me when it stood by my bed that night. I, too, was screaming in my mind, ‘why did it choose me and not someone else?’ I, too, felt relief when I found out that I wasn’t the next target. That’s right… I’m not much better than Mu Mu who has abandoned his friends during hardship. Perhaps I’m worse.

What would I do if the target this time really was me? Maybe I would be more insane than Mu Mu. Maybe I would curse Yuan Fei and the guys to die an unjust death. I would show the true colour of human nature and reveal all of its evil.

Are you satisfied? Seeing the pathetic and ugly nature of us human beings, enjoying our display of vulnerability in the face of fear, are you satisfied? So when will you stop?

Wu Fan and Xu Ping come back at lunchtime, empty-handed. Yuan Fei goes over what happened with Mu Mu, leaving out his wild behaviour and what I had said about the meaning of the water stains. However, I’m pretty sure Chief and Glooms has started to suspect it because Chief frowned at the stain and Xu Ping also stared at it for a while.

The four of us go to the cafeteria for food and bring it back while getting pointed at by others along the way. I got my favourite dishes but I’ve got no appetite whatsoever. I stab at the food with my chopsticks and only get a few morsels down.

Yuan Fei reaches over out of nowhere and takes a few fillets of my fish. I raise a brow. He, in turn, shoots me a blaming look before bending down and starting to pick out the fish bones.

“It’s quite horrifying to watch you eat fish like that. I see fish bones go in but nothing comes back out. Just stop please. I feel like I’m the one with a stomach full of bones. I can’t even. Here, I’ll get ‘em out for you.”

I blush furiously. “Thanks,” I mutter.

“You really know who your real friends are during hard times.” Wu Fan jokingly says as he adjusts his glasses, “Just look at Casanova and Sunny! Archenemies turned BFFLs, am I right?”

“Watch it! One of these days Chief…” Yuan Fei barks but his ears are bright red.

I suddenly feel like I’ve been caught red-handed but I don’t know what for.

“Oh, so did you guys find anything?” I quickly change the subject.

“Not much. Well, at least nothing out of the ordinary,” Chief reports. “I’ve let my imagination run wild. I’ve considered the notion that there’s been a conspiracy at our school and all the related documents have already been destroyed, so I’ve been looking out for information that doesn’t match up. But still. Nil, nada.”

“I asked my dad to find out what used to be here before the school. There wasn’t anything weird, far from a cemetery or place of execution or anything,” Xu Ping adds casually.

“Your dad?” I ask.

“Oh right, you guys probably don’t know. Xu Ping’s dad is the chief of our city’s Criminal Investigations Division. His people are the ones in charge of our case,” Chief explains.

“Whoa.” My jaw drops. I never knew Xu Ping had such a background.

“So there must be a lotta first-hand information.” Yuan Fei’s eyes seem to light up.

But Xu Ping shakes his head. “The higher-ups are really serious about this case. The investigators might be my dad’s people but everything about the case is strictly confidential. But my dad’s really worried about me so he’s trying his best to get bits and pieces. He’ll let me know once he does and I’ll tell you guys then.”

“Why don’t you go home if your dad’s so concerned , Glooms?”

I shut my trap right away because the answer hits me before I finish asking. The room falls quiet. Everyone is looking down at his own food without a word.

Xu Ping starts chuckling after seeing our reaction. “What’s with those faces? I didn’t stay for some selfless reason. I just want to get some experience before I go apply to become a policeman.”

“Oh, you wanna be a policeman?” Yuan Fei laughs. “Then why didn’t you go to the police academy? Or you wanna use your degree and directly apply for an office position?”

“Where’ll police academy get me? With my dad, I can at least get to the Inspector rank as long as I have a university degree!” Xu Ping jokes.

“Ah, the corruption of bureaucracy!” Chief purposefully puts on his serious ‘justice’ face as he criticises.

“Haha, I never knew Glooms could be this humorous.” Yuan Fei is laughing.

On the other hand, I study Xu Ping. He looks fresh and smart when he smiles, flashing eight pearly whites.

“I never knew Glooms could be this handsome,” I mumble.

Xu Ping pauses and then immediately scoffs. “Gimme a break. I don’t want that coming from a man.”

The entire room gets filled by laughter. Laughter really is infectious. It wasn’t anything hilarious but every person starts laughing at the others laughing their asses off, and their own laughter, in turn, makes the others laugh even harder. Then it just repeats and multiplies.

My stomach is starting to cramp. My cheeks are sore and tears are coming out of my eyes.

“I FORGOT TO MENTION!” Wu Fan yells after hitting the table.

This scares everyone shitless. I’m rubbing my chest which my poor heart’s beating wildly in. I glare at Chief, who almost became the murderer of three good men.

“MIS! TER! WU! FAN! Do you not know laughter relaxes the mind? Do you not know people have their guards down while relaxed? Do you not know people are easily scared when their guards are down? Especially me! Mentally and emotionally fragile me!”

Chief apologizes profusely before getting to his point. “I almost forgot to mention. I found something fishy. None of our files are in the archives. I had to ask around but apparently our files were taken out by the principal since Cubs’ incident.”

　　“Why is that?” Yuan Fei inquires.

“I thought there might’ve been something in the files like similarities between Cubs and Kong Linglin and these similarities could be the key to this whole thing.” He pauses before adding, “But that’s just a hunch. It might’ve been moved simply for the police’s convenience or for security purposes.”

“It could be that they didn’t want the murderer to destroy any evidence," Glooms says calmly. “The archives room doesn’t have the best security per se. Not to mention the fact that the Student Council and the teachers can get access to it anytime. So if the murderer is someone from the school they could get rid of crucial clues if they wanted to. Also, students’ files are a sensitive area and it’s almost exam time. The police probably couldn’t take it anyway and only made a photocopy or something before returning it. But they’d need the original during trial so it’s possible the school moved them for safekeeping.”

　　“So what you’re sayin’ is...” My mind is racing. “The reason why the guys were chosen might be in there?”

“Right. Now we can only hope that the principal didn’t lock them in his safe.” Wu Fan suddenly smirks.

“Are you suggesting...” Yuan Fei peers at Chief with a frown.

Wu Fan cracks a sly grin and the four of us share a look before grinning knowingly in unison.

 “Mission Impossible: The Principal’s Office,” I laugh as I give our operation a name.

“This time it’ll be the four of us. This way we can look after each other if anything does go down.” Wu Fan then heaves a big sigh. “If we get caught, my spot on the Council, no, even my degree might be at stake here.”

“That’s right, my brothers. If shit goes down, remember that the mastermind was Chief and we’re just the poor minions who got coerced into being his partners-in-crime,” I proclaim with a straight face.

“You little piece of shit!” Chief grins as he raps my head once. “Alright, enough. Let’s split up the job. The Party Secretary has the keys to the office and it won’t be hard for me to borrow it. But I can’t get the keys to his cabinet so Glooms and I are gonna try to get the cabinet open tonight. But if that doesn’t work then there’s nothing more we can do. Yuan Fei, Xiao Yu, one of you keep watch by the east staircase and the other one at the west staircase. If anything happens, let us know right away and retreat separately and meet back at the dorm.”

I suppress a chuckle. The four of us are just like a couple of Eighth Routers planning to steal military secrets from the Japanese back during the Japanese invasion.

“What do we do if you guys can’t get it open? Or if it really is in the safe?” asks Yuan Fei.

“Can’t blame no government.” Chief spells.

We burst out in laughter and start mock-beating Chief.

We got the basic plan down and we’re joking and laughing, but I’m sure every one of us is at least a little bit anxious. That’s why we’re trying to distract ourselves with this racket. Because, after all, the closer to the truth we get, the more danger we’re in.

The day has passed by without much happening. Throughout that time, I only thought of Mu Mu and worried about his wellbeing twice, both times quickly focusing back onto our mission tonight.

I had stopped to observe the others’ expressions but they didn’t look one bit unsettled or concerned. No one even stopped to ask if Mu Mu got home safely.

It was exactly this lack of the simplest kindness that made me notice how abnormal it was for everyone to have just forgotten about him or something. I suppose what this really means is that everyone actually cares about him a lot, and they’re keeping in the anxiety regarding his fate so as to not alarm the others.

I finally get it now. I never forgot about him. I was only afraid of thinking about him. Every time I think of him, something to the left side of my chest jerks, as if my worst, most terrifying nightmares are all rushing to burst out to push events past the point of no return. I’m scared, terrified of this feeling, so I don’t want to think about him. It may be selfish to say so but neither my nerves nor my heart can take it anymore.

I glance out the window at the sky. Finally, night has come.

      thank you for posting and i'll be waiting for the next chapter and also thank you so much in advance for the cold sands' chapter next day i really feel lucky these days a chapter after another right after the exams make sooooo happy it's just like my first time in an amusment park १✌◡✌५

    2. Oh ho ho ho >8) I cant wait for next chapter.
      Im so glad you liked it!!! I was afraid this chapter would be too boring. I mean there's not much horror in this one :S but there's a lot of foreshadowing ;D
      Tomorrow's chapter of Cold Sands has been long-awaited as well :D Thank u for reading and commenting and Ill see u tmr <3

  3. Thanks!!! Arffff so next chap I will have to sleep with the light on... ><

    Hum... anyway thanks for your hard work!!!!

    1. >:) yesh...its probably the scariest chapter in my opinion...
      Youre welcome =3= Be sure to come back tomorrow for the Cold Sands update as well <3

    2. Like hell I will forget that!!!!!!!!!!! It ended at such a moment no way I would not remember when you update it!!! Thankssss without you I wouldn't know what I was missing and it would have be a shame!!!

    3. :3 im glad you're looking forward to the cold sands update hehe ^O^

  4. Oh my oh my! I need to get a teddy!! Thank you!

    1. XD Any stuffy would do~~
      Youre welcome :)

  5. Thank you for the translation! This novel is very interesting and this relatively "quiet" chapter give me some breath :). I like it. I've came to like almost every guys, also Chief and Gloomy and I'm a quite worried especially for the these two, because they are not main characters... About MuMu even if I can understand his behaviour, still I don't like him. Even being human, not all of them are gone so out of their mind,( or managed to acknowledge their human fear and try to hold out against it like Sunny)

    Anyway I've not theories but I found the one in the previous comments really interesting :)

    To the next chapter

    1. Yeah this chapter is a breather :) the next chapter...not so much
      Thank u for reading and commenting~

  6. I forgot! Do you have a greater picture of the cover? Or other pictures of the novels. I don't know if it's my pc but it seems very small and a little blurry

    1. No its the best one we could find sorry! :(

  7. Oh! This chapter threw me for a loop a bit. I'm still on the bandwagon that Mu Mu is most suspicious and the supernatural being is not a malicious one. Mu Mu's reappearance only confused that theory. First of, if we assume Mu Mu- say didn't like their group dynamic and for whatever reason he wanted to end it- it's easy to see why he initiated the game, why he left, and why his supposed best buddy was the first victim. It would also explain any apparent hostility. He would also be confused as to why the polar opposite main characters suddenly became buddies. Perhaps he has beef with Yuan Fei because of the incident in the past- I can't quite link him to the supernatural element yet. Also, it is quite suspicious that he would go back in order to gather his things. I know this is written as a horror and the genre lends itself some leeway with suspension of disbelief, however, if I was supposedly going to be murdered because of a dorm curse, I would forfeit all those possessions and skip town. Mu Mu either needed a special item there, say evidence or useful tool, or he needed a witness to his being there at that time. However, some of his reactions in the dorm did seem genuine. One can fake blushing- but I'm not so sure it is possible to fake going pale. Eh, I can't quite put my finger on it but something is amiss with Mu Mu, even if he is innocent and legit dies soon. Hopefully the next chapter will make things clearer?

    Thank you very much for the chapter!

    1. Wow. Good thinking! I won't say anything about whether he is or isn't involved in the murders but those behaviours do sound sort of weird when you say it like that, although I don't think that he needed to kill anyone just because he didn't like their group dynamic. Buuuut, enough said. I will let the author do the explaining in the following chapters ;D Thank you for reading and commenting (I lub long comments <3)

  8. Again thanks for the translation....and really really looking forward to the next chapter

    1. =3= thank you for the comments as always <333
      Next chapters gonna be a wild one!

  9. Aghh the agony!
    Btw, what's the eighth routers? The link provided appear to be wrong?
    Oh, and is there a voice drama thing for this? If there are, where can i listen to it or dl it?
    Thanks a lot! =]

    1. Sorry, the translator note for "eighth routers" is fixed. X3 ;;;
      And, yes, there's a drama for this, which covers chapters 1-4. I'll look into adding it to our audio drama site. ;D

    2. Thanks dairytea >3<
      The agony!... shall be relieved in 4 days *pats Anon*

Come down here and join us for an encounter with this massive apex predator and see them up close for yourself. This won’t be a normal reef dive, but a descent to a sandy plateau at about 20m/65ft where we wait and let these creatures come and approach us. Clearly this is not for the faint hearted diver.

acid trip

Who, Max? Wherefore art thou, Romeo? JD, JD, is that JD? Hello, hello.

Do you know who I am? I don't know who I am. Do you know who you are?

Sultan, Om, Kaizad. Max, oh Max.

I've found a hat.

Boom-boom. Boom-boom.

I've found a gas mask.

I will kill you. I could have killed you. We will be killed. He will kill us. Should I kill you?

Oh, Max.

Gas. Pentane. Temporary amnesia.

Chinese, Japani, Korean? **&%$#*@#$%. Oh, Indian.

Car 1. Car 2. Car 3. Car 4. Boom, boom, boom. Car 5. Car 6. Car 7.
Boom, boom.

Fire, water, guns. Boom.

Acid factory. Grills. Doors. Locks.

Who are you? Who am I? I will kill you. You will kill me?

Man in Black 1. Man in Black 2. Man in Black 3. Man in Black 4. Boom, boom, boom.

Find Max. How will I know her? She's wearing black.

Mud tracks. Bikes. Helmet out. Long hair flying. Leer. Leer. No kiss.

Gun 1. Gun 2. Gun 3. Boom, boom.

Bad friend. Good friend. Good cop. Bad guy. Bad girl. Leer, kiss.

Boat. Bike. Car. Bigger car. Bigger, bigger car. Boom.

Max. Romeo. Om. Sultan. Kaizad. JD. Sarthak. Mrs. Sarthak.
What's in a name?

JD. Kaizad. Sarthak. Sultan. Romeo. Om.

The Pentane gas escaped from the screen into the theatre. All of 7 viewers and 13 food vendors reeled with temporary amnesia.

What are we doing here? Why are we here? Have we died and come to hell?

Am I going to be trapped in eternity with 13 popcorn, samosa and soft drink sellers who will come to me every 3 seconds asking me to stuff my mouth with junk food? What horrible sins have I committed in my past life to be subjected to this?

I am alone. The other 6 viewers are in couples. I feel so sad. So bad. So black. So blue.

OK, OK. Let me come to my senses. Make some sense of this. To make sense is to combat hell.

What have we here? South Africa. 25 cars we can blow up. A yellow Lamborghini. An acid factory. Lots of semi-naked women writhing in ecstasy. Good girl 1 trying hard to be bad in black leather, high heels and fierce scowl. 3 blocks of wood in black. 3 actors in black. 1 actor forgotten in black. Good girl 2 struggling to be good in black. Gas. Guns. Bikes. Boats. Cars. Boom. Boom. Boom. Leer, kiss.

Where is the script, mother-father? Where is the script?

Who am I? Do you know who I am? Why am I here? We could be killed.

A more coherent review of 'Acid Factory' will soon appear in Tehelka.

Edited to add: And here it is, the Tehelka review.

back to your biting best :)

dipali said...

The guys who make these films serve the cause of art by giving you the masala for your deliciously scathing reviews:)

agent green glass said...

heh heh. brilliant. i had a sneaky suspicion it would be pretty crappy. but the review was fantastic.

SUR NOTES said...

as lawrence would say: you trip acid. I trip banno.

our dear editing lawrence, in case you did not realise.

memsaab said...

From what I've heard your review above is already way more coherent than the film.

This is why I stick with old ones. Even the bad ones aren't as so very annoying as new bad ones (maybe because filmmakers should have learned something by now?)...

perplexed said...

Best review ever!! more entertaining than the movie for sure!

Sujatha said...

LOLOL! Your reviews make me want to watch the movies just so I can relive your reviews! Damn!

memsaab said...

Oh Banno, excellent review in Tehelka :)

Grasshopper said...

This review was coherent enough, thankyou.

illusionaire said...

hehehe... classic! I feel like I've just watched the entire movie from your short but precise review. lolz. But I saw the trailer and I was quite impressed with the CGs. But then, when "D-Wars" hit the screen, the trailer CG was amazing too, but when we watched the movie, it sucked so much I felt like puking.

Nice review version on Tehelka too :D

Happy Holidays!

This was our second "Holiday Season" away from family, and it was surprisingly lots of fun.
For Halloween our ward of course had a trunk or treat, and then Halloween night my sister Marie had a bunch of families over before trick-or-treating. Thank goodness our girls are cute, clearly neither Brandon or I were concerned about our appearances that night. P.S. trick or treating lasted less than 30 minutes for our family- it was freezing!

The first of November, we broke out the Christmas decorations (we had already been playing Christmas music since October). Also Brandon decided to participate in "Movember". I am still confused why a mustache is acceptable in Church and in work places, it only brings stress and conflict to a relationship.

Grace loves to "play the piano", but especially loved to play and sing Christmas carols. It was very entertaining.

Meanwhile, Ivy's favorite activity was finding sneeky ways to get her destructive hands on the Christmas ornaments. How can anyone get mad that face!

 Sadly this is the only picture of Thanksgiving. It was definitely one to remember. Brandon was supposed to be able to hurry and get is work done early and be home in time for dinner, but he ended up having an emergency at work was stuck onsite for days (literally working around the clock with "naps"). Meanwhile our friends that were supposed to join us got the flu. Thankfully I had invited another friend whose husband also had to work and she was able to come. In summary, it was a very intimate holiday :). However, I still had fun cooking everything and Grace and I completed our "thankful  tree" and discovered despite our quiet holiday, we are SO blessed.

 Ward Christmas P.J. breakfast. I was especially excited to break out my favorite P.J.'s. My college room-mates and I were given matching ones from Shannon's Dad; I have treasured mine since.

We made lots of treats this season. Clearly the presentation of these was not the goal; it is just super fun baking with Grace. She is one of the few people I know whose sweet tooth is bigger than mine!

I learned to love the snow. If it is going to below freezing outside at least let the land look pretty and be fun to play in.

I can squish and smother those cheeks all day!

I don't know why we even buy toys.

It's so nice to be able to go to my sister's house and play!

Grace LOVES the snow.

 Grace's Joy School class put on a Christmas program at a nearby nursing home for "Grandma's and Grandpa's". They performed the nativity and sang songs. They did great for 3 and 4 year olds! They may not have a career on Broadway, but the people loved it! Grace played pretend "Bethlehem" for the remainder of December and part of January.

More treats. First time making gingerbread cookies~ fun and yummy!

 Dickinson mall Santa: apparently small town Santa's can arrive later than scheduled, but then can sit and talk to the kids for 10+ minutes each! He and Grace had quite the chat about "a Cinderella thing". Obviously Ivy was overwhelmed with joy to see "the big guy".

My second time doing a home made gingerbread house and it was more fun tha I remember. Probably had to do with my special helper! And yes we are eating more sugar. I promise we normally eat well, we just believe in balancing healthy food with yummy treats.

Christmas Eve P.J.s.

Christmas Eve we went to Marie's with some other familes and the missionaries. We had a yummy dinner and a nativity Christmas program. Grace got to be "Mary" and poor girl had to try and keep "Baby Jesus" safe from crazy "Joseph" and the "Shepherd"- she was a little stressed during the program. It was very fun and sweet to see her concern. (Brandon was able to be there the whole night which was awesome!)

Santa finally arrived!

Christmas morning!! I can't imagine it getting any more fun!

Christmas Day we woke up early and did presents, followed by a fun and yummy breakfast. Then Brandon went off to work and I got to play and relax with the girls. Thankfully it wasn't too busy and he was home by dinner to go back to Maries for a fun Christmas buffet. It was a Merry Christmas.

Out of all the toys Grace received, her cheap "Strawberry Shortcake Polish" was her most favorite. I think we spoil our kids for no reason, they are just happy with the little things.

Living in Arizona most of my life I have not experienced true seasons. So, when September rolled around and the leaves began to turn yellow, orange and red I fell in love. I was just about to think that this Northern US stuff wasn't so bad. I was a little naive.

This is Grace's "Joy School" class when we went to my favorite outdoor park in late September.

This is the very next day still in late September mind you!

It snowed and snowed and  has continued snowing off and on since! (P.S. incase your math is a little rusty, that is five months and counting of cold and snow)

Everything seemed fantastic but I got 1/2 size too big. I had to exchange them for the proper size. VERY comfortable. I was of the old way of thinking about boots had to be at least partly pointed with a high rear. But when I tried these on they were so much more comfortable that this above I think it's time for a change. cheerLanvin Stripe Silk Georgette Maxi Dress Best Price!

Pregnant women shop for fit, comfort and style, nevertheless Cornell University fashion design scholar Blake Uretsky has sent a whole change: chic maternity wear that wirelessly displays the mother's health.

Uretsky earned one of four $30, 000 Geoffrey Beene countrywide scholarships from the YMA Fashion Scholarship Pay for this month following creating a mix-and-match collection of dresses, slacks, layers, blouses, skirts, sweaters and formalwear top quality "B" Expectant mothers Wearables. The product uses conductive silver materials to impression heart rate, blood pressure, body temperature and respiration levels from a great expectant single mother's skin.

Tucked behind a "B" belt buckle, a device feeds the information to a smart phone, where the consumer can instantly check fondamental, receive alerts for overexertion, inactivity, enhanced stress and also other dangers or perhaps email info to a doctor.

"Wearable technology products need to both be aesthetically pleasing and possess meaning and value to users, and pregnancy is a time in which critical monitoring is necessary, inch said Uretsky, a senior in the Department of Dietary fiber Science & Apparel Style (FSAD) in Cornell's College or university of Individual Ecology. "I also wanted to change negative views associated with maternity put on by displaying that it may be stylish, specialist and trendy. "

Uretsky's suggestions gestated for over seven months, as she investigated the $4. almost 8 billion maternity wear industry, specialty fabrics, wireless technology and advertising concepts although she sketched, computer-modeled, covered and made her original garments. As part of her design research, your woman surveyed 31 pregnant women, which include 10 face-to-face interviews, and even browsed and tried upon maternity clothing for in shape, quality and design while wearing a artificial baby bump.

In addition to health monitoring, Uretsky explained her collection stood away because it can be adapted as a woman's physique changes, paired with a variety of parts and worn before, during and after pregnancy.

"My 3 unique design popular features of reveal and conceal, grow Lanvin Stripe Silk with you, and mix and match provide expecting mothers with the style and adaptability they desire, " added Uretsky, who donned her replica belly and maternity wear for the competition's last pitch to seven trend industry idol judges.

Uretsky awarded FSAD connect professor Vehicle Dyk Lewis and older lecturer Anita Racine with guiding her fashion design concepts, and the department's fiber science experts with help determining high-tech materials.

"As a fashion designer, Blake went very well beyond the fact that was required in such a case study to analyze the current maternity wear market and talk about women's clothes needs having a goal to help them feel equally healthy and beautiful while pregnant, " added Racine.

"Winning the award means Nordstorm Designer Clothing a lot and will generate so many new and interesting opportunities for me to further drive my love for design, " Uretsky said. "I have learned and experienced a great deal throughout this Lanvin Stripe Silk Georgette Maxi Lanvin Stripe Silk Dress Best Price process that I could hardly have any other way. This kind of extremely nice scholarship goes toward the development of my own vogue label in the future. "

Tu me manques..

12:48 PM

There are many benefits to knowing French, even in America.  Although a better choice may have been Spanish, I am thrilled that I have become fluent in French and familiar with French culture.  I cannot wait to have little baby bumblebees to care for and teach French to.  Introducing them to the structure of a foreign language (and particularly that of a romance language) will help them exponentially in their education, interaction with society, and understanding of culture in general.

One thing that I realized while living in France was that the French have expressions and phrases that cannot be translated into English; they cannot be translated because they would lose their meaning and eloquence.

 "In French, you don’t really say “I miss you.” You say “tu me manques,” which is closer to “you are missing from me.”
I love that. “You are missing from me.” You are a part of me, you are essential to my being. You are like a limb, or an organ, or blood. I cannot function without you. "

Male permissiveness in a unisexual–bisexual mating complex promotes maintenance of a vertebrate unisexual sperm-dependent species

Unisexual–bisexual mating complexes are found when an all female sperm-dependent (gynogenetic or hybridogenetic) species relies on heterospecific males for reproduction. Mistakes in species recognition or discrimination on the part of the males are fundamental for the persistence of unisexual–bisexual mating systems, but should be selected against because mating with heterospecific females does not lead to fitness benefits for the males. Here, we focused on the Poecilia latipinna–P. formosa–P. mexicana mating complex, where P. formosa is a gynogenetic species of hybrid origin and P. latipinna and P. mexicana are its parent species and sexual hosts (sperm donors). We examined male mating permissiveness (the propensity to express recognition errors) by presenting males of both sperm donor species with conspecific and heterospecific females in a no choice design. Whereas in prior studies males generally discriminated between heterospecific and conspecific females, we found no evidence for a greater conspecific recognition vs. recognition of P. formosa in males of either sperm donor species. This permissive behavior by males could be explained by the close relatedness between P. latipinna and P. mexicana to P. formosa.

Comparing Health Professional Work Orientation in French and Canadian Hospitals: Structural Influence of Patients in Open and Closed Units

For content published from 1960-2001, see International Journal of Comparative Sociology.

In this paper we present comparative qualitative data on the influence of patients on the relationship between health professionals and hospitals in France and Canada. We elaborate specifically on a typology that depicts the structural influence of patients in terms of open and closed communities. Our analysis reveals some key differences between the open and closed communities across the two countries. Health professionals in open communities in France were able to establish a stronger relationship with patients than those in Canada. Professionals in France described a weaker connection with their colleagues than in Canada, and this may be one of the triggers of stress, burnout and high turnover. There were more similarities among closed communities in Canada and France. Conceptualizing the structural influence of patients in terms of open and closed community ideal types is a useful heuristic device that moves the implicit and explicit influence of patients to the foreground of the analysis of the relations between health professions and organizations.

The Ninth Daughter

The Ninth Daughter by Barbara Hamilton
Berkeley Publishing Group, 2009
359 pages
Historical; Mystery
1st in series

Source: The library

Summary: In 1773, Abigail Adams finds a dead woman in her friend's house and that friend missing. Then her husband is accused of having committed the crime. So Abigail sets out to discover the real murderer and find her friend again.

Thoughts: I picked this up because I love American history and Abigail Adams is one of my favorite historical figures. I didn't realize it was the first in a series until I got it home; I like to start with the first but for mysteries that isn't always necessary. But it didn't really feel like a first mystery to me because many of the characters (Abigail, John, and Sam Adams, Paul Revere) were already known to me and did not need to be introduced.

My biggest problem was the writing style as there were many times when I had to stop and reread sentences because either the sentence structure or the comma usage confused me. Because of that I'm not entirely sure I could explain all of the details of the murder. I also did not solve the mystery (*surprise*)

Pamela by Samuel Richardson is Abigail's favorite novel (historically accurate?) and its themes about women being used, maltreated, and generally considered unimportant were utilized to make parallels between the novel and the women Abigail sees.

I would have liked a historical note from the author explaining if the murders committed were inspired by a real life incident and also an examination of the Sons of Liberty's activities and the politics of the time. I also would have liked more interaction between Abigail and John because the scenes where they were together were so cute.

Overall: 3.5/5. I will keep in an eye out for other books in the series as I know the first book isn't always as good as the ones that follow.

Cover/Title: I honestly did not understand the title until I typed it today although it is explained.
