2nd August 2006:
Well I er..read this at about 4pm this afternoon and forgot to review. Bad me! Anyway, just as funny the second time around, I think my favourite part is: "
Eight hours, twenty three minutes and seven seconds later, Lucius stepped out into the garden and sighed."

Loved it!

Author's Response: everyone loves that bit, lol, so do i but i LOVE the nappy incident, i had to throw it in, i mean this is Lucius MAlfoy we are talking about.

20th July 2006:
Yay! You managed the challenge, and even though Snape wasn't in it for very long, I'll let you off *grumbles about missing out on the 200 points*. But it was very good - your descriptions as usual very evocative and give you a sense of being there.

Well done for completing the challenge and well done for a great fic!

Author's Response: lol it was difficult to write snape as bad because he is GOOD!!!! thank you for the lovely review and yay! i won the challenge hehe!

Review #16, by Duck the DuckHogwarts: A History: Before the First Stone was laid

10th July 2006:
This was really, really great! Very well written, and a great way to start the look at the history of the wizarding world. I enjoyed it very much, you got a feel for the time-period and it was interesting reading about Godric Gryffindor's mother, and what happened before Hogwarts.

You've set a high standard for the rest of the chapters, I hope mine will be just as good!

Author's Response: I'm sure it will be!! THanks for the review!

Review #17, by Duck the DuckInside Barty Crouch Junior: Barty Crouch Junior

30th June 2006:
WOW! Etta that was sooo good! I loved all the backstory you gave to Barty, and although nothing like this has ever been mentioned in canon, you made it seem like it could be a possibility!

And very angsty, not what I'd expect from an Etta (and friend *blushes* sorry I can't remember your name) story lol.

This was great :D

Author's Response: lol ohh amy! *huggles tightly* expect the unexpected from the Etta and friend...who is also known as Lord Voldieknickers...or Lillianna...just Voldieknickers will do for her, thanks the review, glad you liked it and now go spread the word!!!!

Review #19, by Duck the DuckLike a Bird Without Its Wings: Like a Bird Without Its Wings

19th June 2006:
First impressions, now that I have read this story: great! And now onto the more detailed stuff ;)

I really liked the first part of the fic, the dream. It set the tone for the story, gave me a feel of what to expect in the rest of it. Then, the sudden contrast of Lily's everyday life - classes, friends, housepoints etc. was great to convey a sense of normality.

I enjoyed how you set the dream scenario up, that it would be induced by a spell, and the actual dream itself was good. And finally, I thought it was great that there was no real resolution of Lily/James - if you'd had her falling into his arms and them becoming a couple at the end, it would have taken away from the great parts of the story.

I noticed a couple of grammar/syntax mistakes, but overall, I really liked it! Well done!

Author's Response: Thanks, Amy!!! That's the greatest review ever! That's because people seem to be confused by this story... I know what you mean. I am slightly upset that in every one-shot James says 'I love you', Lily cannot believe her ears, and they kiss under the stars. It is too disturbing and overused even for fluff! I mean, would he really say the three magical words just like that in the common room??? But I digress. I appreciate that you sat down and wrote that brilliant review! :) It's really nice of you!

Review #20, by Duck the DuckI Am Charlie!: I Am Charlie

16th June 2006:
I liked this a lot :) A great look into how it feels to be overshadowed by a sibling (not that I'd know, I am the oldest lol). I liked the scene when everyone was comparing him to Bill and he stormed out the best. Great stuff :)

Author's Response: haha, glad you liked it nonetheless. i am the oldest too so i kinda wrote the story the way i thought he might feel, although someone who IS a younger sibling told me it actually really was like that sometimes. thanks for the review!

Review #24, by Duck the DuckEnforced Elucidation: Blood Guardian

18th May 2006:
I found it interesting how Harry felt the loss of his relatives so deeply - in the books we've always been shown how much he hates them, and vice versa. I like how you showed him upset for them though, it shows how compassionate a person Harry is. I'm interested in how Harry will react though to the fact that snape is going to become his guardian.

Author's Response: Well I figured that Harry would feel some loss due to the simple fact that they were his only known relatives and now he is alone (so he thinks). Im glad you are still liking this and I await those words from you - "I agree, snape is good!" lol

Flags make an inexpensive travel souvenir.

I am a sucker for inexpensive souvenirs that I can use with the kids over and over after a trip is done. My favorite collection from our overseas travel is a flag from each country that we have visited.

With each flag that we collect, we see that country’s visual symbol to the world.

We discuss why countries used certain colors and why specific symbols are pictured on each flag. For instance, did you know that the flag of the United Kingdom is a combination of the flags of England, Scotland, and Ireland? Were you aware that the eagle on the Mexican flag was a symbol representing an Aztec legend? These facts help kids understand a little about the history of a place, while cementing the connection between flag and country in their head.

I buy flags online – my favorite site is Flags! Georgia. They have every flag I have ever wanted in a variety of sizes. I have opted for desktop flags because they are inexpensive and easy to display. The flags themselves cost $1.85 and the stands are 99 cents. Even better, they usually ship the same day, so my order always gets to me very quickly.

It is rewarding when the kids see a flag out in the world and are able to identify it because we have been to that country and learned about that flag.

Mounts Lafayette & Lincoln - Solo Hiking

Mt. Lafayette (5,260ft)
Elevation Gain: 3,550ft
Mt. Lincoln (5,089ft)
Elevation Gain: 300ft

Total Elevation Gain: 3,850ft
Trails: Old Bridle Path, Greenleaf and Franconia Ridge Trail/Appalachian Trail
Hut: Greenleaf
Distance: 11.0 miles roundtrip
Duration: 9.0 hrs (includes stops for breaks along the trail, and at the summit)

My 4000+ Peaks #9 & #10 respectively
Listed 4000+: #6 &7 respectively
Difficulty: Very Strenuous

This hike was strenuous indeed, but I had a great time. Even though the trails were crowded and both summits packed, the views and the experience were certainly worth the trip. Originally I was going to solo hike Mt. Jackson, but I was worried that with a farther ride, I would not start early like I would have liked to. With the hikes to Mounts Lafayette and Lincoln, I was pretty sure that the parking lot would not be full by the time I arrived. I had also been reading trail reports prior to this hike and all said not to expect any solitude on these trails especially on summer weekends. So with the hike distance and my pace, there were many others on the trails I was certain I'd come in contact with. As with my previous solo hikes, I left instructions with my family members, packed cold weather clothing and took along 3L of water, Vitamin water and doubled my food supply.

Let me just start by saying that I can usually keep count as to the number of hikers I cross on the trails, but on this particular hike, I stopped counting when I reached 50! And as for dogs, there had to be close to 2 dozen that I saw on the trails. But only 4, I noted, that were leashed/tethered to their owners. I'll never forget the pack of 5 beautiful silver and white Huskies I passed while descending Mt. Lincoln. I wondered if they'd be in front of a sled if it was snowing. At both summits there were so many people, the only folks I do remember were a family of 16 that had ascended via the Falling Waters Trail and were staying at the Greenleaf Hut for the night.

I took the Old Bridle Path trail which starts at the Lafayette Place parking lot. About 0.2miles there is a junction and the Falling Waters trail veers sharply to the right and immediately crosses the Walker Brook on a bridge. I continued along the Old Bridle Path trail to the left.

 On my descent from Mt. Lafayette to the Greenleaf Hut a glider made its third run.
It was mesmerizing to watch it as it caught the updrafts of the Lafayette.
On my way back down I stopped at the Greenleaf Hut again to use the restroom, get a drink and buy a Greenleaf Hut logo shirt. The hut was crowded and that family of 16 staying overnight had arrived just as I was leaving.

As I headed down to the trailhead, the temps started to cool off. I stopped for just a bit at the lookouts to take in the views for the last time. I passed 3 hikers who were on their way up with large packs on their backs...the hut croo with more supplies.

I have to admit I love elevation gain, but the descent sure is tough on my body! At the 9th hour, every inch of my body started to ache! I was close to the trailhead and remember commenting to myself that I wanted this hike to end now! But as I write this, I'm looking forward to yet another weekend hiking the White Mountains!

Are We on the Road to Perdition?

The events of the past week should shake the most ardently complacent out of their stupor. The decisions by the US Department of Justice demonstrate that some politicians are above the law. Then, turning to the “shootings” around the country we see the resulting loss of respect for the law.

HOUSTON, Texas – Commissioner Jack Morman recently completed the reconstruction of the North Shore Park walking trail. The project included reconstructing the three-quarter-mile asphalt trail to a six-foot wide concrete walkway, extending the trail nearly 160 more yards, and re-grading five acres of land for improved drainage.

“This park is known for its high traffic in walkers and joggers, so I’d like to thank everyone for their patience during this project,” said Commissioner Morman.

The Precinct is currently in the planning phase of trail improvements at W.E. Bill Crowley Park in East Aldine. They hope to have that project complete by the end of this year. For more information and updates on the Precinct, be sure to follow our Facebook page, “Harris County Precinct 2.”

Thermostatically Controlled Roof Vents

Introducing the revolutionary Heat Dispersal System from Advantec. One of the premier roof ventilation systems on the market, the HDS has been devised, developed and fully manufactured and can help you save cooling costs tremendously.

Roof Vent Problems

The largest expense attributed to keeping your home cool is the continuous cooling of the hot air sourced from your roof space. Homes and buildings are built with better insulation than ever before and retain heat extremely well. Obviously this is crucial in the winter months and allows you to save on your heating bills, but a well-insulated building can be equally difficult to keep cool in the summertime.

Roof Vent Solutions

The HDS is designed to disperse hot air out of your home, which makes cooling it much more efficient. The space between the roof and ceiling retains high levels of heat (up to 70 degrees) because it is highly insulated, and this has a huge effect on the rest of the home. Thermostatically controlled and fitting conveniently into your roof space, the HDS vent system works to keep the temperature in the roof space to below 28 degrees. This makes your home more comfortable and cool and reduces your energy consumption significantly.

“Increasing temperatures within your roof space requires a HDS to reduce your Energy Bills”

Really Spooky

This is a backdated post.

This happened several months back when we were back in Ipoh. That night, all 3 of us slept on a queen sized bed in my room. Alycia slept facing the wall, Sherilyn slept in the middle and I slept on the other end of the bed. About an hour after I’d put the gals to sleep, I heard Alycia sobbing softly. I turned to her and saw her hugging her bolster tightly. I asked her if she had tummy ache. She said no. I asked her if she wanted to poo poo, she said no. She continued to sob very softly, as though she’s afraid or in slight pain. I asked her what’s wrong with her. She remained mum. I then brought her to the toilet as I still thought she had tummy ache. As she sat on the toilet seat, she pointed towards the room floor, at the foot of our bed. She said “I saw a woman there”. I tell you, my hair and goosebumps raised instantly. I asked her where and she ran into the room and pointed to the floor. Coincidentally, there was a white paint dot on the floor and Alycia said “the woman is on the white dot”. I then reassured her that she’s just dreaming though I was damn scared myself. After putting her back to sleep, I prayed and prayed the whole night and left the bathroom light on and door ajar.

The next morning, I asked Alycia again what had happened the night before. She could still tell me that she saw a woman. I asked her if the woman was young or old, she said old. What color was the woman, was she white or black, she said white. Long or short hair, she said long. As I interrogated her further, my hair and goosebumps raised further and I felt cold.

In my 5 years’ stay in that house in Ipoh before I moved to KL, I’d never encountered any ghouls or ghosts. I’m not sure if Alycia was merely having a bad dream as she had slept in a foreign room that night. Whatever it is, I believe that if we have done no harm or evil, we should be fearless and I believe that my God is always watching over me and my family. Prayers can counter all fears.

A Port Charlotte man died after hitting a cargo van that turned in front of his motorcycle Friday afternoon in Charlotte County, according to a Florida Highway Patrol report.
The report says that Curtis Wayne Sanders, 40, of Punta Gorda was driving a Freightliner P70D northeast on David Boulevard, approaching the intersection of Dayton Lane. Traveling southwest on David, driving a 2001 Kawasaki 600cc motorcycle, was Max Andrew Price, 24, of Port Charlotte.
Sanders reportedly turned left onto Dayton Lane, crossing the southwest lane of David Blvd., where Price clipped the right rear of the van, and was thrown from his motorcycle.
The report says Price was taken to Peace River Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead. He was not wearing a helmet.
Charges are pending an investigation, and it has not yet been determined if Price had been drinking.
Sanders was not reported as injured.

5 Learning Attractions in Singapore

Singapore is a wonderful holiday destination. There are many tourist attractions and it is not a typical Asian country. So if you are not sure about where to go for a holiday, think no further. Singapore is the place.

Every year, millions of tourists flock to Singapore for holidays. Why is this so? This is because Singapore is the leading travel destination in Asia with so many tourist attractions. Also, it is a popular business travel destination because important business conferences are held here every year. In this article, let me highlight some of the tourist attractions in Singapore:

Singapore Zoo

Singapore Zoo is a nature walk by itself where you can get to see lots of amazing animals at close range. Also, you can visit Night Safari at night. It is the world’s first wildlife park built for visits at night and it is not like any ordinary zoo illuminated by the night or a modern version of nocturnal houses found in many zoos around the globe. There are hundreds of species of animals that you can see in their natural habitats. It is open daily from dusk until midnight. I am sure you will enjoy it.

Beach, Sentosa, Island, Singapore, Sea, Sand, Water

Sentosa Island

If you are a beach and sun lover, you must visit Sentosa. It is an island located just off Singapore where lots of people go for a day of sightseeing and fun. It has been developed into what seems like a major theme park where you can enjoy lots of activities. At the beaches, you can suntan and play volleyball with other sport enthusiasts. But do remember that naked sun tanning in Singapore is illegal.

SEA Aquarium

Begin the quest by traveling back in history to find Asia’s maritime traditions in Maritime Experiential Museum. Enter and explore the world of the S.E.A. Aquarium, home to more than 100,000 sea creatures. It’s an event you won’t forget.

Walk through the interesting world under the Strait of the Karimata, on the lower eastern aspect of Sumatra, and become astounded with splintered hull which has advanced into a growing marine habitat.

Observe the squadrons of pompano and threadfin trevelyan and bat fish and other seapets, like napoleon and goliath grouper, seek refuge near the shipwreck because they sail via Java Sea waters.

From once holding treasures over the sea, to now harboring the ocean’s marine life treasures and shipwrecks continue to condition the world in the oceans . Learn how Shipwreck Habitat was made.

Jurong Bird Park

Jurong Bird Park is another popular tourist attraction in Singapore. You get to see nearly ten thousands kinds of birds in this stunning wildlife park. It opens daily from 0800 hour until 1800 hour.

Singapore, Botanical Garden, Fountain

Botanical Garden

If you are a plant lover, you will definitely like the Botanical Garden. It is a beautiful park with wonderful gardens. There are thousands of plant species for you to view.

I hope that this article gives you some information about Singapore. Do visit Singapore soon. See you around.

You live … Where?!

While running errands or searching for a store or business, have you ever been frustrated by how tough it can sometimes be to locate a particular address? HFMVA’s ambulance crews certainly have – and in our line of work, finding a difficult address quickly can have a big effect on patient outcome.

Looking at the homes and businesses in our area, it’s surprising how frequently their street numbers are impossibly small, nearly unreadable – or just plain absent. Have you ever looked at your own home’s numbers? Are they clearly visible from the road, at least 3-inches high and not hidden by trees or landscaping?

Consider the perspective of the medic or driver who may someday respond to a 911 call at your home: They’ve just jumped out of bed in the middle of the night, they’re mentally reviewing their protocols and preparing for your situation, they may be collecting equipment or supplies, the weather could be doing its best to make visibility poor – and to top it off mail box numbers are too small to read! In cases like this, the ambulance might have to turn around (no small feat on narrow roads in bad weather) more than once before the crew finds their destination.

Please take a few minutes to check the numbering on your house or mailbox, and make sure it’s large enough and visible enough from the road for our crews to find you!

I can't totally agree on the blueing theory, because we had a problem
with eosin fading many years ago and we only use Mayer's Hematoxylin, no
blueing required. Our first thought was that we had wrong dilutions of
alcohol after the eosin. That wasn't the problem, we just made up some
fresh eosin and everything was back to normal.

[Histonet] Luxol dyes

From:Robert Krug

Saw  Dr Kiernan's posting on Histonet.  I cannot tell you what the MBS
stands for, but I can add a little insight into naming dyes.  Dyes are
given trivial names in most cases.   This really means the person
originating the dye may call the dye whatever they please.  At one time
there were may have existed guidelines.  If such guidelines existed, no
one seems to be familiar with the specifics at this late date.   Today we
use scientific nomenclature with set conventions to name products such as
1-Cyclohexyl-2-phyrrolidone.  Personally I prefer the trivial names.

In some cases the abbreviations come from the German dye industry - who
were really pioneers in the field.

The SF in Light Green SF yellowish = SaureFarbstoff (German) = acid dye

English terms are also sometimes abbreviated

FCF in Fast Green FCF = For Coloring Food

There are a series of fluorescent dyes available such as PKH26, PKH67.  In
this particular case I cannot be 100% sure, but the person who filed the
patent on these dyes just happened to have the initials PKH.  Coincidence?
 In this particular case I would guess that the 26th and the 67th attempts
were keepers.

Naphthol compounds are often named Naphthol AS-MX phosphate or possibly
Naphthol AS-BI phosphate.  The structures are evidently different, but no
one I have talked to has been able to explain why one product is given as
the AS-MX designation and the next product is AS-BI

If you look at Conn's Biological Stains, 9th Edition, you will find the
text lists many more obscure synonyms - as compared to the 10th Edition.
In previous years, companies often gave common dyes unique names.  They
may have believed they gained some competitive advantage from this
practice. Even today dyes may often go by more than one name.  Sometime
this is done when the company markets to various industries.  If you are
selling to the printing industry, you might name a dye XXXX.  If you
market dyes for histological use, you might name a dye YYYY.  Today I
believe the trend is for companies to sell the dye by the name given the
most common product of commerce.  This is probably why fewer synonyms are
listed in the 10th Edition. Synonyms however are here to stay.  Sodium
thiosulfate is still referred to as hypo in older textbooks.  This is
because "hypo" was the term used in photography.

One of the many useful functions served by the Biological Stain Commission
was the creation of CI or Color Index numbers.  It really doesn't matter
what a company names a dye.  If Product X and Product Y from competing
companies have the same CI number, there is a good chance the dyes may be
used in the same staining procedures.  If the dyes are Certified by the
BSC, this gives even more indication the dye should be acceptable for use.
 The CI number varies from the CAS number.  For the CAS numbers to be
identical, the molecular structure should be identical.  Not so with Color
Index numbers.

For example, Basic Fuchsin may be composed of 100% Pararosaniline, or a
mixture of pararosaniline, rosaniline, magenta II and magenta III. The
pararosaniline may be the chloride or the acetate form.   So although the
blends may vary from manufacturer to manufacturer and possibly even
between lot numbers for a specific manufacturer, the dye must perform in
an acceptable manner to receive certification from the Biological Stain
Commission. In the 10th Edition of Conn's, no CI number is assigned to
Basic Fuchsin, although the individual homologs are given given unique
homologs. The 9th Edition of Conn's assigned Basic Fuchsin the CI number
for Pararosanline. The real test is how well the dyes perform in actual
staining procedures. Anyone really interested in dyes for biological use
should try to obtain a copy of the methods used by the Biological Stain
Commission.  Analysis and testing of biological stains - The Biological
Stain Commission Procedures  (Biotechnic & Histochemistry 2002, 77(5&6):

Methylene Blue is another prime example for a dye which is composed of a
series of closely related homologs.  However in this case Methylene Blue
is assigned a Color Index number, as opposed to Basic Fuchsin which was
not assigned a unique CI number in the 10th Edition of Conn's. Again the
major homologs are assigned CI numbers.

Other dyes by comparison are relatively pure and may be almost 100% pure.
However sometimes purity is not all.  Some of the impurities may be
present/added/act as stabilizers. In the case of Nile Blue, the presence
of Nile Red as a contaminant may be highly desirable.

For other dyes the formulations are constantly shifting, even though the
name remains relatively constant.  Alcian Blue is a dye which has a
tendency to explode during manufacture.  This has resulted in a constant
tinkering with the method of production over the years.  The dye sold
today was probably manufactured very differently than an Alcian Blue
manufactured decades ago.  If the product of commerce continues to provide
acceptable staining results in the methods commonly associated with Alcian
Blue, the dye will be sold & certified as Alcian Blue. It would be
impractical to give each slight variation in product a unique name or CAS
number. Trying to perform a literature search would be made extremely
difficult to almost impossible.

Tradition methyl green has not been produced commercially for many years
(35-45+ ?). The actual product of commerce today is ethyl green.  In this
case methyl green and ethyl green are really not synonyms.   However
because ethyl green may be used for the same purposes as methyl green, the
product of commerce continues to be called methyl green - very much to the
annoyance of Dr Kiernan :)

Hope this helps,

Best Regards,

[Histonet] eosinophils on frozen section

From:"Breisch, Eric"

To all interested Histonetters:

We are experiencing some frustration with our ability to identify
eosinophils from frozen sections. For some reason which our frozen
section set up does not enable us to identify eosinophils. Eosinophil
identification is not impaired when the tissue is submitted for
permanents. Could some one please share the reagents used and how the
frozen section staining area is set up if they have success identifying
eosinophils from a frozen section? We have had many frozen sections done
on fresh tissues suspicious for an eosinophilic granuloma but our
techniques so far have not rendered consistent eosinophil
identification. We presently are using 95% ETOH for fixing the FS slide,
quick wash in distilled H2O, 1 minute in Richard Allen Hematoxylin 2,
rinse in tap water, 15 seconds in bluing, rinse in water, rinse in 70%
ETOH, 1 minute in Richard Allen Eosin Y, three rinses in 95% ETOH, three
rinses in Xylene substitute and then coverslip. All other tissues appear
just fine but the eosinophils just don't show up. Any suggestions are
greatly appreciated.

Re: Wade Fite Stain (Hermina Borgerink)

The reasons for the oil mixtures used in the Fite and/or Wade stains for
deparaffinization is that older organisms often have a capsule that is harder
to stain and acid-fast components are often extracted by the use of xylene.
The oily mixtures not only have a protective quality, they also serve to
"refatten" the deteriorated baccili, making them easier to stain.  Please see
Theory and practice of Histotechnology by Sheehan and Hrapchak in the section
on microorganisms.

After the Vatican dismissed earlier reports this week claiming that Pope Francis might be a target of the Islamic State militant group, otherwise known as ISIS, new reports state increasing concern for the pontiff's -and the public's - safety, The Daily Beast reported.

In an article published Monday, Il Tempo reported that the pope is a target of ISIS, citing an unnamed Italian intelligence source. The pope, who is considered the "the greatest exponent of the Christian religions" and the "bearer of false truths" by ISIS, is "in the crosshairs of ISIS," Il Tempo reported, adding that the extremist group plans to "raise the level of confrontation" by attacking Italy and greater Europe.

But the Vatican denounced the concerns, calling them unfounded despite growing concern in Italy that it is not just the Pope who is under threat.

"There is nothing serious to this," Vatican spokesman Federico Lombardi told Catholic News Agency.  "There is no particular concern in the Vatican."

The Italian government, however, made contradictory statements. Earlier this week, Italy issued a nationwide terror alert despite no imminent threats or specifics about a potential attack on the country and the Vatican, Italy's deputy interior minister Filippo Bubbico said.

"ISIS could launch terrorist attacks on what they referred to as 'sensitive targets' in Rome and elsewhere, specifically pinpointing embassies to both Italy and the Holy See, Catholic churches, bus and train stations, sea ports, airports and travel agencies," according to The Daily Beast. "Other security measures include restricting air space above Vatican City and Italy's foreign ministry, in addition to stepped-up police presence in public transportation hubs and busy tourist sites like the Coliseum, the Spanish Steps and St. Peter's Square."

"ISIS poses an international and European security threat and we in Italy feel particularly exposed," Bubbico told Italian SKY News.

Meanwhile, at least five suspected potential jihad fighters have been arrested this week as they were preparing to leave for Iraq. In a new report, at least 50 Italians are now known to be fighting with ISIS, 80 percent of whom are "very Italian" and 20 percent are sons of immigrants, dispelling fears among Italians that a spike in illegal immigration has somehow played a role in the recruitment of young people, Italy's Corriere della Sera newspaper reported.

Instead, the rise in recruits from Italy is fueled by "disillusionment with the future," "distrust in the Catholic Church" and "boredom," according to the paper, which said all the known fighters are men between the ages of 18-25.

Open Submissions – Endgame

By Anne Perry

Posted on August 18, 2015 in News with tags Open Submissons

Our open submissions window has closed. What happens next?

We have now responded to every email we received during our open submissions period. For everyone who submitted – congratulations! It is an enormous accomplishment to have finished a novel, and you should be incredibly proud.

We are now happily reading submissions and (thanks to a small army of enthusiastic volunteers) we should be on track to have read them all and responded to everyone by the end of September.

I have some questions!

If you submitted but did not receive a confirmation email: please email us at hodderscape (at) hodder dot co dot uk. We will search our files and our log and get back to you.

If you submitted but received a response saying that you had submitted outside our submissions window: given the huge number of submissions we received we simply cannot consider anything that we received later than our posted cutoff time. But don’t fear! We will hold more open submissions periods later on, and we are always open to submissions from agents.

It has come to our attention that we should have written BST instead of GMT in our original submissions guidelines; we apologise for the error.

Great. What can I expect now?

Given the huge volume of submissions, we will not be able to provide personal feedback to authors. When we have made our decision we will send you an email. In some cases, we might be sending you a rejection; in other cases, we might be asking for you to send the entire manuscript in so that we can read and consider it.

Please be patient with us! We’ll read as fast as we can… but we’re only human!

On behalf of everyone here at Hodderscape,

thank you all for your enthusiasm, your understanding, and your brilliant books. We’re honoured to have the opportunity to take a look at them and look forward to getting in touch with you our about our decision.

    Was disappointed to just find out about this. I think it’s a fantastic opportunity and I’d like to know if you guys are planning to open any more windows in the future?

  • SJGWhite says:

    All the best to your army of readers, and I look forward to reading the first books to come out of your open submission window (if that isn’t too odd an image)! I’d love to know how many submissions you had.

  • PJ Lightning says:

    Thanks for this opportunity. I hope that the reader likes my submission. Meanwhile I can get on with a few revisions and drawing maps etc. Fingers crossed.

  • Sean Connolly says:

    How does one get the chance to volunteer with Hodderscape? Seems like a great opportunity.

  • Andrew says:

    Do you start letting people know by the 20th or will have finished letting everyone know?

    • mm Fleur Clarke says:

      We will start letting people know on the 30th. We have quite a few to get through so we may not be finished until the end of October. We’ll make sure to keep everyone updated on Twitter and the blog!

  • C Bott says:

    Would it be possible to know if you are looking at submissions and writing to people in the chronological order in which items were submitted? Appreciate that how you work is very much your business, but it would give a broad idea of when to expect an email.

    • Anne Perry says:

      We will begin responding to submissions by the end of the month, but we cannot guarantee that we will respond in the order in which we received submissions. As we received more than 1500 submissions it is taking us a considerable amount of time to read through them. We will be posting an update on the blog tonight or tomorrow.

  • Ian Bruce says:

    Have all the submissions been responded to, as I’ve still yet to hear anything…

Driving progress

10 October 2017

Pelloby has installed two 35t double-girder cranes at a press shop at BMW Group’s Mini plant at Swindon, UK.

The installation represents part of a project to upgrade older lifting system at the plant, and follows a similar installed by Pelloby in December 2015.

The cranes have spans of 21.8m, and provide 9.8m of lift. They run on different gantry rails at separate locations in the press shop, with the end carriages fitted with anti-collision/slowdown units to prevent either system coming into contact with a neighbouring cranes, by shutting down the power once they reach a pre-determined proximity.

Due to the double-girder design, a travelling Verlinde crab unit is able to sit on top of the beams of each crane. The VT5 electric wire rope hoist crab units incorporate digital load displays and true vertical lift, says Pelloby, which prevents any lateral movement to improve hoisting performance.

As well as installing the two cranes, Pelloby will also provide a series of follow-up servicing visits over the 48 months following the installation. To assist with maintenance, both sides of the cranes are fitted with a walkway along the entire span, as well as a Metreel safewire fall arrest system, and a self-closing mechanism on the access gate of the safety rail.

Other features include emergency stop buttons on the walkways, and five LED floodlights.

Pelloby oversaw the project from design to final commissioning, including providing operator training and removing the existing crane.

For more than 10 years, Gregg "Opie" Hughes and Anthony Cumia have been in the middle of the fight concerning indecency.

As hosts of "The Opie and Anthony Show," the two have earned a reputation for entertaining and offending listeners with their edgy content.

Now, Hughes and Cumia are taking their show on the road with the second annual Traveling Virus Tour. The tour will be making a stop Saturday night at Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Conn.

The show will feature many of the comedians who appear regularly on the radio show, providing fans with a marathon of stand-up comedy.

"We kind of wanted to do a polished event finally," Hughes said in a phone interview. He and Cumia hosted a similar tour last year, and it was so successful they were able to book twice as many shows this year.

Longtime fans now have the chance to see many of the comedians they have heard through the years.

"If we're going to put our name on the tour, we want comedians who have worked with the show," Hughes said. "We look for guys that can go with the flow in the studio."

Thus, comedians who visit the show must be willing to toe the line of decency standards, and sometimes even cross it.

A checkered past

Hughes and Cumia have had a few clashes with station executives, community groups and even the Federal Communications Commission during the last decade. Their show started in Boston in the mid-1990s, when Cumia was a frequent guest on Hughes' radio show on WBAB (102.3 FM). The two soon formed a show, but eventually moved to WAAF (107.3 FM), also in Boston, for a better time slot.

While at the station, the duo had a "100 Grand" giveaway, where a surprised listener received a candy bar instead of $100,000. They also reported as an April Fools joke in 1998 the death of Boston Mayor Thomas Menino. WAAF fired Hughes and Cumia later that month in response to that incident.

But Hughes and Cumia were back on the air in less than two months, this time at WNEW (102.7 FM) in New York. They were fired four years later after a contest in which a couple had sex in a church to win concert tickets.

They returned to the airwaves again in October 2004, when they brought their show to XM Satellite Radio. In 2006, they began a simulcast of the show on terrestrial radio.

Along the way, many comedians - including Stephen Lynch, Jim Norton and Bob Saget - have made regular appearances on the show. They will be among the nine comedians performing Saturday.

"Opie and Anthony's show includes a roster of very funny comics - several of whom are regulars at Mohegan Sun's Late Night Comedy series in The Cabaret Theater," said Laurie DiOrio, director of music and variety at Mohegan Sun. "We're proud and pleased that they've been included in this national tour, and audiences should keep in mind that their offbeat humor is intended for adult audiences."

A tour de force

"Opie and Anthony have been instrumental in creating a tremendous fan base for the comedians on their show and comedy in general," said Matt Frost, talent agent at the Paradigm agency and co-booker for the Cabaret Theater at Mohegan Sun. "It's a great outlet for these comics to expand their fan base to a nationwide audience."

The shows on the Traveling Virus Tour can easily last longer than three hours because of all the comedians involved. And the fans have helped turn the comedy event into an experience few other comedy tours can rival.

"It's more like a rock show than a comedy show," Cumia said.

Fans even get to shows early to tailgate, and the tour includes additional festivities because most shows are at outdoor venues. But Mohegan Sun cannot host many of the extra attractions, so Hughes and Cumia will broadcast live Friday morning from the Wolf Den.

What: Opie and Anthony present the Traveling Virus Tour.

Comics featured: Bob Saget, Rich Vos, Jim Norton, Stephen Lynch, Patrice O'Neal, Bob Kelly, Frank Caliendo, Louis C.K., Otto and George.

When: 7 p.m. Saturday.

Where: Mohegan Sun Arena, 1 Mohegan Sun Blvd., Uncasville.

Cost: Tickets are $45 and $65.

Warning: Show contains adult content.

"The Opie and Anthony Show" will be broadcast live from the Wolf Den at Mohegan Sun from 6 a.m. to 11 a.m. Friday.

For more information, visit

Real names: Gregg Hughes and Anthony Cumia.

Ages: Hughes is 44, Cumia is 46.

Career highlights: Began "Opie and Anthony" in March 1995; fired in 1998 after false report of Boston Mayor Thomas Menino's death; signed syndication deal in 2001 to be heard in 22 metropolitan areas nationwide; produced show for XM Satellite Radio in October 2004.

Steve Coogan Brings His Alter Ego to the Big Screen in ‘Alan Partridge: Alpha Papa’ Trailer

Oh, those Brits. We know that our friends across the pond like their dry humor almost as much as they like their tea. And while you’ve probably seen English comedian Steve Coogan in movies such as Night at the Museum and Tropic Thunder, you may not be familiar with his most famous character, radio host Alan Partridge.

Credit: Studio Canal

The incompetent DJ has been popular in the UK for over 20 years, starred in multiple radio and TV shows, and now he’s getting his shot at the big screen. The full trailer has been released for Alan Partridge: Alpha Papa, which finds Alan trying to negotiate with his former coworker who has taken over the radio station after he gets fired. As you can see, Alan’s not the most reliable person to handle such a delicate situation, but watching him try is pretty hilarious. The film hits theaters (or cinemas, as the Brits say) in the UK on Aug. 7.

Video & Arcade Games   Nostalgic Drink Machines   Air Hockey Table Tennis Darts Arcade & Video Games Pinball Machines Rockola Jukeboxes Driving Games Skeeball Slot Machines SuperChexx & Bubble Hockey Pool Tables Foosball Tables Popcorn Plus Shuffleboard Boxing Dance
EGYPT LAKE - Let the games begin - again
PINBALL1It starts with an electronic game that has long since seen better days, between 10 and 50 years old. After years of use and abuse in an arcade, bowling alley or bar, it finds its way into the home of a collector attempting to relive his or her youth and post the high score on a favorite table.

Then, finding that the bumpers don't bump and the flippers don't flip as well as they used to, the game is packed up and shipped to Game Gallery Amusements and Rentals, 7941 N. Armenia Ave. That's where Bill Calosso and Dann Jarvis work their magic.

It starts by stripping the game right down to the wood, Calosso said. He or Jarvis will spend hours taking the game apart, removing every piece of plastic, rubber and metal.

Plastic parts are soaked in a bucket of citrus cleaner, then cleaned by hand with a toothbrush.

The wood part of the table is cleaned and waxed, Calosso said, as he draws a fingertip through the grease and grime accumulated on a table being disassembled by Jarvis. Metal parts are put into a tumbler and spun around in ground walnut to remove rust and corrosion. The rubber on the bumpers and flippers is replaced, as are broken parts.

When a game is put back together, ``Everything gets tugged on, everything gets pulled,'' Calosso said. ``I don't need to hear from a customer saying that something broke right after they got it back.''

It costs about $250 to $350, on average, to refurbish a machine at the shop, which has been in business for 25 years. It has been at its current location about 10 years. One benefit of the job is getting to play the games - all in the interest of giving the game a final check before returning it to the customer, of course.

``We play each game about 20 or 30 times before we let it leave,'' Calosso said. ``It helps us to find the little quirks that you can't find until at least the 19th or 20th time.''

A week later, that antique ``Star Wars,'' ``Kiss'' or ``Indiana Jones'' pinball machine looks as good and works as well as it did 20 or 30 years ago.

Calosso has worked his pinball wizardry for 18 years. He learned through trial and error, disassembling the games to find out what makes them tick. There were no books or schools that taught arcade game repair.

``I just started going through them, learning about them as I went along,'' Calosso said.

Pinball restoration is only a part of the business at Game Gallery Amusements and Rentals, owner Andy Kline said. They restore classic arcade games such as Pong and Space Invaders, and sell and rent everything from pool tables to jukeboxes. Clients come from all over the world, Kline said. They have received games from as far away as Japan and the United Arab Emirates.

``A lot of these people get these games on eBay, then they call us to fix them,'' Kline said.

``It's amazing what people put in their house,'' he said. ``We had some people put these large Skee-Ball games in their house.''

Jarvis, who used to repair video games in Detroit, said that working on pinball games gave him a respect for the form.

``With video games, you can play for an hour and you'll eventually beat the game,'' Jarvis said. ``But it's very difficult to beat a pinball game.''

monopoly1Repairing pinball games also is tougher, Jarvis said. ``With pinball, you've got mechanical parts and electronics,'' Jarvis said. ``Some games even have hydraulics. But the classic video games are easier. They just have electronics.'' Kline said he started out 25 years ago, when Space Invaders was state-of-the-art. Today, he's seeing those games make a comeback. ``Ms. Pac Man, Galaga, Donkey Kong,'' Kline said. ``People my age can remember those games and they want them.'' Antique pinball games are a big business, Kline said, with some games going for several thousand dollars.
``The Medieval Madness pinball is going for $8,000 to $10,000,'' Kline said. ``The [rock group] Kiss pinball is also very collectible. People are paying $5,000 to $6,000 for that.''

For Calosso, the best part of his job is returning a game to a customer.``When people get their game back, you should look in their eyes when they see it,'' Calosso said.
