Mentioned in a Chinese hisotry book from the 14th century are 3 northern kings from the Ryukyu Kingdom; Hanji, Min and Hananchi. On Okinawa Island during this period, there were three principalities, Hokuzan of the northern region, Chuzan of the central region, and Nanzan of the southern region.

Today we have the cover for a new fantasy romance series brought by our absolute favorite, Ella Frank. Due out in January 2015, this is definitely something we haven't seen from her before!

“Tell me about this place. This…Arcania.”

What if your life as you knew it ceased to exist?

That is the question Naeve Brannigan and her three sisters are faced with on the eve of their 25th birthday.

Continuing a tradition they’ve hidden from their mother for years, the four women arrive at a tarot shop to have their futures told.

Only this time their futures aren’t predicted—they’re forever changed.

They’ve awoken in a strange time and place with no knowledge of how they got there. All they have to go by is the word of a man who claims to be family—a family they’ve never heard of.

He tells them of a world they could never have imagined. One that has been cursed by an Empress fueled by old revenge—revenge their mother appears to be at the center of.

As they fight to survive the people and dangers of an unknown land, they slowly begin to unravel its mysteries to find that they hold the key to saving this world…this Arcania.

The question that remains for each of them is: Who do you become when the you that you always were is no longer?

Ella Frank

Author of Contemporary & Erotic Romance

Friday, February 26, 2016

Jack cradled her head in his hands and kissed her hard, his tongue expertly finding hers. He turned her around until she was up against the wall and kissed her until she could barely take it anymore. She was frantically grabbing at his shirt, his tie, his suspenders. Pawing at his back and neck, anything she could hold on to in order to bring him closer to her. He spread her legs apart with his knee and leaned into her, taking his cue. She grabbed his ass and pushed herself into him until he unexpectedly pulled back.
“I’m sorry,” he said breathlessly. “I promised you that I’d ask before I kissed you again.”
Caroline was having a hard time concentrating. “I - what?”
“I said I’d-”
“I heard you.” Her mind came back into focus. “We kissed right before we left for the fundraiser. Don’t you remember?”
“I do. And you were the one who kissed me. Remember?”
Now you’re concerned about propriety? After everything you just did to me?”
Jack eyed her up and down. “Yes.”
Caroline grabbed his tie. “Oh, shut up and put your tongue back in my mouth.”
Jack kissed her again as she began to loosen his tie. She was groping at his shirt; her hands were shaking and she was having tremendous difficulty keeping them still long enough to undo the small buttons.
She broke their kiss. “Damn it. Why the fuck is your shirt so complicated?”
“Such coarse language from such a beautiful lady. You can rip it off if you want.”
Caroline fumbled with the buttons. “Like I’m going to ruin an expensive piece of clothing. Screw it.” She trailed her fingers up his neck and through his hair before pulling him closer to her. “I’ll figure it out later.”
His suspenders were much easier to pull down. Caroline could feel his smooth muscles through his dress shirt as they exchanged long, delicious kisses.  She moaned against Jack’s mouth and he stepped back from their embrace. He unbuttoned his shirt and let it fall to the floor, then pulled his white undershirt over his head with ease.
Caroline gaped at his chest and arms. He worked out. A lot. She was trying to figure out when he found the time to do it. He was arguably the best looking man in his forties she’d ever seen. She trailed a finger down his abdomen.
“You should have taken your shirt off months ago,” she said. “I would have slept with you so much sooner.”
“That’s what I like to hear.” He pushed her against the wall again. She wrapped her leg around him, pulling him even closer.
“Stop talking,” Caroline said, still distracted.
“Someone’s pretty bossy.” Jack brought his mouth to hers. “And eager. I wonder what for.”
She could feel his cock, hard as a rock, against her hip. Even through his pants she could sense his size, and she gasped.
He pulled back from her. “Do you want me to stop?”
She giggled softly. “No. But I discovered that you aren’t compensating for anything with your giant house and fancy cars.”
He looked down at the bulge in his groin, bringing her hand down to touch it. “You’ll find out soon enough.”
She wanted to find out as quickly as possible. Caroline dropped to her knees, eyeing his zipper. Jack tipped her chin up.
“No,” he said. “Tonight is about you.”
She wanted to argue with him. She really did. She wanted to rip off his pants and let him know exactly how she wanted the night to progress. But he yanked her to her feet and kissed her again, and somehow she lost her train of thought.
“You,” he repeated.
Jack caressed her breasts through her dress and smiled silkily as her nipples grew hard. He kissed her chest again, working his way back down.
“Your clothing is in my way,” he said in a muffled voice.
“You should probably do something about that, then,” she whispered, kissing the top of his head.
“Tell me to stop and I’ll stop.” Jack pulled her toward the bed. “But I really want us both naked, as soon as possible.”
He turned her around and began kissing her shoulders. A shiver ran down her spine and she felt desire continuing to pool inside of her. It had been so long since she’d been touched like this. She missed it. Caroline realized she’d never quite been touched like this before, or at least had never reacted this way.
I’m in way over my head here, she thought.
And as Jack began to unzip her dress and trail kisses down her back, she discovered that she didn’t really care.

Rising Democratic star Caroline Gerard is reluctant to fall in love again after losing her husband. Can Republican playboy Jack McIntyre break through her grief and capture her heart? Told mostly in flashback and set against a chilling fascist backdrop,Dissident is a rollercoaster ride of political intrigue, passionate romance, and undying love.

Caroline faces the biggest challenge of her life when confronted with the cruelty and sadism of her captors at The Fed. Hope fades quickly, even as she holds onto her one last bit of sanity and her unshakable belief that her husband will rescue her. But is that faith just a mirage?

Reeling from her experiences at The Fed, Caroline tries to forge ahead and create a new identity. But that’s hard to do with the ghosts of the past constantly whispering in her ear. She is determined to find the rebellion and move on with her life, but what will she find when she arrives there?

Includes bonus material featuring a deleted scene from Sojourn, a sneak peek at Phoenix, and a never before released love scene told in Jack’s first person point of view!

Elizabeth R. Suppes

Elizabeth Robinette Suppes of Vineyard Haven, died peacefully at her home on the evening of December 24. She was 97.

She was born April 9, 1915, in Johnstown, Penn., the daughter of George Osborne and Marion Dibert Suppes. Preceded in death by infant brother George Dibert Suppes and her sister Marion Dibert Suppes Perret. She is survived by her sister Sara Suppes Ashman of Johnstown and Naples, Fla. She is also survived by nieces and nephews, Peter E. and Marion Dibert Perret, Dr. George Suppes Ashman and his wife, Suzanne, of Johnstown, Dr. Sara Ann (Ashman) Cifrese and her husband, Rocco, Idaho Falls, Id., and Thomas W. Ashman and wife Diane of Naples, Fla., and their children.

Miss Suppes was called “Busy” by her family and friends because of her many interests and activities. She was educated in the Johnstown schools and at a private school in Washington, D.C. She graduated from Barnard College in 1938 and subsequently obtained an MA in drama from Columbia University. Together with her tennis partner she played in local tournaments, winning many awards for their doubles play. She returned to Johnstown and worked as stage manager at the Mountain Playhouse during its first season in 1939.

When World War II broke out, she was one of the first women from the city to enlist in the WAACs. She was in the first class of recruits to graduate from basic training at Fort Des Moines, Ia. During the war she served as a WAAC recruiter. When the war ended she was at Stanford University learning Japanese. She was discharged from the army with the rank of major.

She went to New York where she worked for the actress Katharine Cornell and her husband, Guthrie McClintock, and taught in a private school. During the summers she ran Sumner Hall, a summer hotel, and the Rice playhouse, one of the first summer theaters, both of them in Oak Bluffs on the Vineyard.

She settled on the Vineyard and lived here for the rest of her life. She was elected to the Tisbury finance committee and became its chairperson. She was re-elected to this position several times and eventually retired from public service. Upon her retirement she was presented with the chair from which she had conducted committee meetings.

Her last years were spent gardening and entertaining friends and family. She lived a full and eventful life, and she is missed by all who knew her.

Johnstown arrangements are being handled by the John Henderson Co. funeral home. There will be no reception and services will be private at the convenience of the family.

Easter Day

Eddie is eating jellybeans in this first picture! It was so funny, I think he had about 4 in his mouth at once! The dessert table is always the best, right? I made a tangerine cake which was out of the Paula Deen April '08 Magazine. It was so moist and delicious. The kids and I made the cupcakes yesterday and Granny made the coconut cake with a birds nest in the middle. We bought beautiful tulips from Walmart for $5.00/bouquet. What a great deal!
This was last weekend at the Easter Egg Hunt. Eddie played in the dirt (and ate a little too!) when we came back home!

We had a great Easter Day. I have stopped this evening to take a moment and give thanks to God for all of my blessings that he so richly has given me. Often times I am so busy (especially holidays) and I'm always working toward the next 'step' in life that I forget to give him thanks for what he's already done. During this season I'm especially reminded of forgiveness that only Jesus could give me. I'm so thankful that as a child I had a family who instilled Christian values in me and taught me the true meaning of holidays like Easter. I am thankful for my family, my home, my job, and all of my friends who mean so much to me! I'm looking forward with great expectation to what the Lord will do in my life from this moment on. I hope your Easter Day was full of joy!

Sounds like y'all had a wonderful Easter. Every Paula Deen recipe I've made is amazing! Happy Easter.

NBA Playoffs Begin Saturday!

NBA Playoffs Begin Saturday - Playoffs open with 4 games on Saturday.

I'm always especially excited around this time of the year because I have been waiting expectantly for the NBA Playoffs to begin. Going back to the time when I first became a fan(more than 25 years ago), the games have been a tradition for me. The difference is where back in those days we always had a full house to watch the games, now it is more often than not just myself. It doesn't matter though. I will do as I usually do and enjoy the games alone if necessary. How about you? Do you watch the playoffs?

I watched some of the playoof games but not a whole lot. I have not had much time to watch much television anymore. I work seven days a week and I am just too tired to keep my eyes open.

The playoffs are on right now. We taped them earlier and the Cavaliers are on, just won the first game 93-86. He has SportCenter now to catch up on the rest. We are taping them again all day tomorrow, but Cleveland won't be on again until Monday. I don't think we have missed the playofsf or March Madness in 30 years. I don't watch them straight through, but I'm around to see what's going on and sit down every now and then when I hear the shouting.

i'm a big nba fan. surely, everyone will agree that this is one of the closest play-offs we have seen in recent years. i'm excited as there are a lot of subplots in both conferences and each series is a potential upset in the making. ok, i don't think the hawks can upset the celtics but look elsewhere and you can present a valid point why one lower seeded team can upset the higher seeded one. take it to the bank, the detroit pistons win the nba championship this year!!!

I'm an avid fan of basketball, that sport is really BIG here in our country. I would definitely watch it, be updated and see who'll end up on top. I'm rooting for Detroit on East and Phoenix on West, though I am not from the U.S. I will still be watching the game through live broadcasts and here on the net as well..

I'm not really into basketball, but my son and my boyfriend are fans of the Phoenix Suns. In fact, we just went to the store on my way home from work and my boyfriend picked up an NBA shirt for my son that sports the Suns on the front and Nash on the back. Got it for a good price too. It was $31.99 and he got it for only $10. Then when we got home he had me look up the schedule of games on the web and apparently they have decided to watch the playoffs tomorrow against San Antonio. I'm glad I'll be at work.

When is the world going to end?

June 17, 2011 2:19am CST
Everybody is saying that world is going to end in 2012. Do you believe this? I believe that the end of the world is really near but not as near as 2012. I think that in my lifetime I am going to see some drastic changes in environment. Scientists have already said that all the glaciers will melt by 2050. I think that the world will definitely see something very big in coming 50 or 60 years. What do you believe?

I believe that we are living in the end times, but that no one will know when the end will come until it does. I believe what the bible says in Matthew ch 24 specifically verse 36 that says But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no , not the angels of heaven, but my Father only. You have to start earlier in the chapter to see that this statment applies to the end times. I suggest that you read it. It is very interesting. I also believe that I will live to see Jesus return. I personally can't wait to enter the Kingdom of Heaven with him. I just hope that he tarries a little longer so that more people can get saved.

Thanks a lot for your response. I have never read the Bible. I am hindu. But I am thinking to read it now just to increase my knowledge and to see what is in it.

Comparison of Average Moving Cost Estimates for Different Methods

I hate moving. I hate packing, I hate unpacking, and I hate the entire process. A few years back I swore I would never do a move by myself again, and instead have been hiring guys to help put my belongings in the truck and to take them out at my new place. It has certainly made moving a little easier, but every time I move I have to decide whether to hire full-service movers, to go the “You pack, we drive” route, or to rent the truck and drive it myself. And guess what? It’s time to move again, so it’s time to compare and contrast different moving methods again.

This time I am moving from Colorado to California, and while I own a fraction of the belongings I owned 5 years ago, I still have a 1 bedroom apartment’s worth of furniture and “stuff”, so I need something other than a small trailer to tow behind my Mini. So let’s take a look at the three methods of moving I will chose from, and see which one makes the most sense in term of economics and the amount of work involved.

Full Service Movers

I have used full service movers a few times now, and while they are the most expensive way of moving, they are also the least amount of physical work. Some guys come to your house, put everything in the truck, drive it to your new place, and then put everything back in while you just direct them to where. However, doing your move like this can cost a pretty penny, and a quick estimate with a major company for my move ran around $3,500. Ouch. I am not looking to spend this kind of cash right now, so will be passing on having someone else do all the work for this move.

Do It Yourself

This is probably the most popular way to move. Renting a truck from U-Haul or Budget, packing it yourself, driving it to your house, unpacking, and then returning the truck means that you do ALL the work – and it’s not cheap. Some rental truck companies, while advertising rates of $19.99/day, charge a lot more for one-way rentals. You also have to buy insurance, pay for gasoline, road tolls, hotel stays (if more than a one day drive), etc., so the rate you are given for the truck rental isn’t really a true amount. Looking into renting a truck from U-Haul for my move, I discovered that the costs would add up as follows:

  • Truck rental – $640. I have 5 days to pack, drive, unpack, and return truck.
  • Insurance – $90
  • Gasoline – The truck gets 10 MPG, and my new home is 1,000 miles away. That means I would use about 100 gallons of gas, at $3/gallon. $300
  • Hotel – $75
  • Car dolly for towing my car – $324
  • Hired help – $200
  • Move – $1,013. I have unlimited time to pack and unload the truck at my homes.
  • Gasoline for my Mini – 1000 miles/32 MPG minimum = 31.25 gallons of gas X $3 = $93.75
  • Won’t need a hotel, as can make that drive in one day

Total cost for move, minus incidentals like food? $1,629

I Pack It, They Drive It

This is the one kind of move I have never done, but I have a few friends who swear by it. From what I have learned, there are 2 ways companies do this – they either drop off cubes/pods for you to fill up, which they then come pick up, or they drop off a truck trailer that you pack, which they then drive away to your location. I contacted ABF/U-Pack, and after giving them some information they suggested their moving trailer for my use. I pay only for the space in the truck I need, and the estimate came out to $1,032. This includes insurance, taxes, gasoline, and the transport of my stuff. With that in mind, the cost of my move would look like this:

Total cost for move, minus incidentals like food? $1,306.75

So, for a minimum savings of $323, and a lot less headache (I have towed a car behind a truck before, it’s not fun, especially over the Rocky Mountains), I think I have found out how I am going to move this time around. What method do you use when you move? I hope this goes smoothly, and I am hoping this is the last move I do for quite a while. The last few years has been a whirlwind of packing and unpacking!

    Hi David, I really enjoy your posts. I’ve moved cross-country 2 times myself, with 2 completely different methods: The first time, I drove my car and my father also drove his truck, and bought a trailer just for the purpose of moving my stuff. When we arrived at my new home, we unpacked, and my father took the empty trailer to a place that sold them, and sold it on the spot for the same amount he paid for it (and we were rid of it the same day we unpacked)! The second time, I didn’t really care to keep the stuff I had (am quite minimalist myself), so I sold everything on Craigslist and moved back with only what I could fit in my car. I plan to make a large move again in a couple of years and will probably do the same thing. Best wishes on your move!

  2. It sounds like that $323 will be well worth the reduced stress. That’s money well spent.

    If I am moving in town, I do it myself and get friends to pitch in.

    I’ve also moved across the country and to/from Mexico. In those situations, I sell all my things. It’s just not worth lugging it all around. I also believe it affirms that I will have to means to replace those items if I want to in the future. I don’t want to operate from a fear-based scarcity perspective.

    Good luck with your move!!!

  3. Alain says:

    Having someone pack for you is well worth the money because it can releive a lot of stress. You already have enough stress with everything else.

  4. Ning says:

    If you don’t have a lot of stuff, I think the cheapest way to move across the country is UPS. Just box everything up, call them and they will come pick up your boxes. I moved across the country once for about $300.

Photo Set: Ty Segall @ The Neptune

Ty Segall / CFM / Bread and Butter
Live @ The Neptune
Jan. 21, 2016
Words and Photos by AJ Dent

Seattle band Bread & Butter kicked the Neptune Theater’s curtain apart on the evening of Jan 21, infatuating the all-ages crowd. I’ve never heard “I love you!” yelled so many times at a night’s opener.

CFM then filled the stage with smoky psych jams, happily surprising everyone I talked to that night (who, along with me, had been unsuccessfully Googling the band’s name before their appearance).

After a long, almost unfashionably late arrival, Ty Segall made the audience forget how to do anything but attempt to avoid his drool, crowdsurf like flopping fish, and gape at his ever-odder standup-routine-meets-weirdo-rock-show. Some guy behind me asked his buddy at one point, “Is this a concert or a therapy session??” Dude, it’s both.

Interview: The Super Geek League

Posted by November 29th, 2005 No Comments »

Q & A With Floyd McFeely

The Super Geek League isn’t quite like any band you’ve seen before.

Part idiosyncratic local indie band and part misfit performance theatre, the group’s live shows have included: stripping nuns, dead fish, trampolines, fire, human cakes, presidential be-headings, and a host of other eccentricities. Their cast of performers includes characters named Dr. Cumsalot, Captain Plastic, the Disgustoids and the Fat Cannibal. And they’ve got song titles like “Seamen” and “Jesus in Clown Shoes.”

Attend one of their shows and you’re likely to be unwittingly involved in the execution of their performance in some fashion, either as an audience volunteer, the recipient of any number of non-hazardous fluids and solids projected out from the stage, or at the very least accosted by one of the group’s many minions, who come dressed either as clowns or “stupid heroes” (think regular-guy superheroes a la the best episode ever of The Tick) and wreak general havoc throughout the venue all night.

As the actual performing musicians in the Super Geek League put the finishing touches on their first full-length album and prepare to headline’s December 1 Holiday Bash at Capital Hill’s War Room, I sat down and chatted with Floyd McFeely, Master Geek. What is the Super Geek League and how can it save our world?

Floyd McFeely: The Super Geek League is a hallucination generated by the Contemplative Dwarf, who is responsible for the world as we know it, as a means of combating and controlling the human disease proliferated by Dr. Cumsalot and the legion of the underworld, who are conspiring to control the world.

For the complete story, read The History of the World According to SGL.

NM: How many members strong is the Super Geek League?

FM: About 75 people and growing. At any given show

NM: Most bandleaders can’t even keep a three piece organized and together. How do you manage to keep the Geeks on track?

FM: It’s organized chaos. I just create a venue for people to come out do something fun that doesn’t require much talent or practice. We create a spectacle to entertain people and our members are compelled to self-motivate and do incredibly strange and off-the-wall shit.

We have a stable of acts that know their part so all they need to do is show up for a gig without rehearsal or much creative direction and for any new act that we introduce I usually have a brief rehearsal to get performers up to speed.

We are always recruiting folks so if any of your readers are interested in joining the throngs feel free to contact us at floyd (at) supergeekleague (dot) com.

NM: So you’re kind of a like a cult for people who aren’t talented enough to be in a real band but are willing to embarrass themselves in order to get on stage?

FM: Real Band? A REAL BAND!!! WOW you mean we could ACTUALLY BE A REAL BAND!! OH MY GOD! I can’t believe this it’s like, like, like, almost a dream come true. I can see us now prancing around in MTV land sporting our chitty chitty bling bling and our hordes of hermaphrodite sex robots!

If a real band means going on stage and boring people to death then no thanks. I have faith in my fellow human disease vectors that they WANT and NEED something more out of a show then just some band playing music. We need to be ENTERTAINED!

When you got to one of our shows, what we give people is a big FAT check of social currency to cash in as part of their collective experience. They don’t talk about the collection of people on stage playing a series of musical chords. NO. They talk about getting hit in the head with a dead fish and being wrapped in plastic while salivating over some hot sexy nuns! That’s the CURRENCY baby. People are ONLY interested in the stories they tell. And SGL delivers.

NM: You’re recording your first album at Electr0 Kitty. How’s that coming?

FM: We finished recording and are just trying to finish the artwork. We are pushing for an early 2006 release date. This is going to be the great album of the 21st Century.

NM: How did you capture the Geek’s live show, which you’ve described as “Teatro Zinzanni on Acid”, on CD?

FM: We initially thought that we should release a DVD, but after serious consideration, I decided to go straight up with a CD and sell the music first and foremost. I think our shows sell themselves and the music will only reinforce the total package that is SGL.

We plan on releasing a DVD shortly after the CD, which will be a series of weird shit, some of which is on our site.

NM: Yeah, but what’s the end product going to sound like?

FM: It sounds amazing! The guys at Electrokitty said it’s one of the best products they have ever produced and they have had a TON of talent go through that studio, so I guess that’s a healthy endorsement. Musically, I believe it to be a crowning achievement.

The Super Geek LeagueNM: Which geeks actually performed on the album?

FM: Captain Tomorrow, Gil, Knuckles and Chuckles, Queen Bee, the dancing midget gorilla known simply as Skeeter, the Professor, and of course our spiritual guide the Jesus Monkey Bling Bling.

NM: What new surprises can folks expect when you headline Nada’s Holiday Bash at the War Room on Thursday?

FM: Stuffed Animal Pillow Fights and the introduction of the Professor, our official SGL narrator. And tons of sadistic clowns and a giant balloon-twisting bunny/duckling!

NM: And finally, what is the Super Geek League message?

FM: Our mission is clear: help people get in touch with their “inner idiot.”

Saw Palmetto for Hair Regrowth – Making Possibilities

Saw Palmetto for Hair Regrowth – Making Possibilities

Saw Palmetto for Hair Regrowth– Producing Opportunities

The hair undergoes different cycles– expanding, resting and also losing. Consequently the main reason why there are actually times when one sees some amount of hair befalling. Hair befalls at around ONE HUNDRED daily. As it is a pattern, one would count on that eventually those hairs that were shed will eventually be changed.

Unfortunately, not all points wanted after occurs. So as in hair regrowth, there are actually circumstances when a personal starts to observe his scalp by means of the hair– an indicator that either the hair is actually decreasing or substitute hairs have actually not developed to substitute those that have actually fell off during the pattern.

Saw Palmetto for Hair Regrowth– Deserving of Point to consider

This is actually where saw palmetto for hair regrowth comes to be an alternative. The saw palmetto herb is recognized to do properly in helping one regrow hair. That should be actually very clear that the researches backed-uping this natural herb program that it assists in re-growing hair not because that directly activates this to grow, yet because that hinders the results from DHT on loss of hair.

DHT is dihydrotestosterone – constituted with the interaction from testosterone level as well as the 5-alpha-reductase chemical. This DHT affixes to hair follicle receptors– making this reduce with opportunity. The growth cycle becomes reduced with less hair expanding– as well as therefore the thinning hair as well as hair loss ultimately.

Also, it blocks out the receptors in order that DHT might certainly not fasten in the hair follicles– and perhaps avoid loss of hair from taking place.

Saw Palmetto for Hair Regrowth– Just How Actual Is It?

Observed palmetto was actually promoted through its make use of on BPH (benign prostatic hyperplasia). There were actually insurance claims from its own effectiveness in providing solution to the signs and symptoms related to BPH. Viewed palmetto is felt to deal with the Type II 5-alpha-reductase enzyme found mostly in the prostate.

Observed palmetto for hair regrowth handles the Type I 5-alpha-reductase enzyme located in the skin layer as well as scalp. This is pointed out to block this chemical to connect with testosterone level– which if delegated accomplish this would indicate the development from DHT.

A lot has still to be discovered saw palmetto and also its results over a longer duration.

Do you surf on your tablet or text on your phone while watching TV? If so, how's your mood? A new study asserts that the more you multitask using multiple screens, the more likely you are to feel depressed or anxious. The question is: why?

Cognitive psychologist Mark Becker at Michigan State University said that the question remains whether "second screening" is the cause of the psychological stress, or whether people who are anxious and depressed tend to use multiple screens at once.

Becker got the idea for the research after comparing notes with some of his colleagues. "It seemed like kids these days are really making themselves depressed and anxious with this constant plugged-in status," Becker told TechNewsDaily.

In the survey of 319 college students, Becker's team found that those who used multiple media devices the most were almost twice as likely to report depressive symptoms as those who used a second screen the least. They also found a similar increase in social anxiety symptoms between those two groups.

Becker's findings come at a time when simultaneous use of devices is increasing. A November report from Nielsen shows that 40 percent of Americans use their smartphone or tablet while watching TV at least once a day, and 85 percent do so at least once a month.

The Michigan State research didn't specify what kind of media the respondents used. So the research didn't pinpoint correlations between specific device combinations, such as a tablet and TV. Becker said he plans more studies to delve into the details. [See also: Do Tablets Make People Happy? ]

If you second screen frequently and feel anxious or depressed, Becker recommends trying a media vacation. "Turn off the systems for a while and see if you feel better or worse," he said.

Multi-award winning journalist appointed patron of the NCTJ

The NCTJ has appointed Alex Crawford, special correspondent for Sky News, as the charity’s first ever patron.

Five times winner of the Royal Television Society journalist of the year award, Alex is based in Istanbul and reports from across the region and on the biggest stories around the world.

Within the past year, her reporting from inside Myanmar’s Rakhine state provided the first filmed evidence of the persecution and deprivation facing thousands of stranded Rohingya Muslims.

Her reports attracted global attention and forced major policy shifts by the UK government and the United Nations.

Alex, who began her career at the Wokingham Times, said: “It’s a huge honour to be asked to be the first NCTJ patron – and while I’m still struggling to understand how I’m considered anything like responsible enough to take up the position, I’m determined to do everything I can to help those just entering the profession.

“I started out as an NCTJ trainee. I was inspired, encouraged and nurtured by incredibly patient and passionate tutors as well as a larger than life regional newspaper editor who gave me a chance when no-one else would.

“You don’t forget seminal moments like that.”

The decision to appoint Alex as patron came after she received the most nominations from journalists who were asked which living journalist they felt most embodies the values of journalism that they respect and adhere to as part of the recent Journalists at Work survey.

Kim Fletcher, chairman of the NCTJ, said: “If an Alex Crawford report doesn’t inspire you, then you shouldn’t be in journalism.

“This is what you can do with a good start on a local newspaper.

“Alex uses her eye for a story, applies an abiding humanity and – though she would never admit it – stirs in a big dollop of courage to bring news that matters from all around the world.”

Formerly based in Sky’s Johannesburg, Dubai and Delhi bureaux, Alex has reported on the events in Africa, South Asia, the Gulf and the Middle East.

During her 30-year career as a journalist, Alex has been arrested, detained, abducted, interrogated and has faced live bullets, tear-gassing, rubber bullets, IEDs and mortar shells.

As well as being awarded an OBE in 2012, Alex has won numerous awards for her journalism, including two BAFTAs, three International Emmy Awards and five Golden Nymph Awards.

In her role as patron, Alex will be giving talks, running workshops, writing articles, helping with fundraising events and doing all she can to highlight the importance of professional journalism and to promote the NCTJ’s values.

In the first of her bi-monthly blog posts, she calls for journalists to rally together against attacks on journalism and to remember in the fight against fake news it’s more important than ever to be accurate and honest.

She said: “Never has it been more important to be a journalist. Never has it been more dangerous. And we’re not just talking war zones.

“Increasingly, journalists are being taken down not just by random bombs and bullets, but also quite deliberately for exposing the truth; for asking uncomfortable questions; for refusing to be silenced.”

You can read Alex’s full blog post here.

Alex will present this year’s NCTJ Awards for Excellence at the gala dinner and ceremony on Thursday, 29 November at Quendon Hall in Essex.

Microreview [book]: A Study in Honor by Claire O'Dell

A Study in Honor is a white-hot reimagining of the Holmes and Watson story in a dark
twenty minutes into the future United States of America.

Dr. Watson is a disabled veteran from the war. With a substandard artificial arm, Dr. Watson wants
to try and return to medicine in Washington D.C, but that would require getting an artificial arm that
works. In the meantime, Watson is living a hand to mouth existence, trying to find a job,
find a place to live, and find a new path after the traumas of war. But Dr. Watson has some challenges in that regard. For you see, Dr. Watson is an
queer African American woman, Dr. Janet Watson. Dr. Watson’s discharge with a clunky
artificial arm is from a second American civil war, the heartland of the nation in the
hands of secessionists. For Janet, the war may be over, but it is far from over for the country.
And finally, a mutual acquaintance leads Janet to meet her new future roommate...the
African American Dr. Sara Holmes. And so a friendship is begun, just in time for
them to tackle a mystery regarding veterans of the civil war. And so we are introduced to the central character and the near-future world of Claire O’Dell’s
A Study in Honor. Sherlock Holmes stories not written by Doyle himself are nothing new. In fact, such works
have been around for over a century. J.M. Barrie, author of Peter Pan, wrote a Sherlock Holmes
pastiche “The Late Sherlock Holmes”, in 1893, a scant two years after Doyle’s first stories came
to print. The number of authors who have tried their hands at Sherlock Holmes stories is in the
hundreds. SFF writers are no stranger to writing Holmes stories, either, ranging from Neil
Gaiman to Michael Chabon to, recently, Aliette de Bodard. What does Claire O’Dell bring to a Holmes and Watson story, then? By putting it in a near
future US, a US which is riven by Civil War and social tensions, and by making both Holmes
and Watson African American women, the author brings a new and fresh perspective to the
mystery solving duo’s relationship, existence, and milieu to work in. Rather than being in a
rarefied pinnacle of social class and status as is common in most Holmes stories, this
Dr. Janet Watson is far more working class in her social mobility, outlook, and in her
day to day problems. Living on the edge as she does, the mystery of Holmes’s own wealth
and relative status gives Watson and Holmes a fractally complex relationship as Watson tries
to come to terms with her roommate’s nature. The Watson-Holmes relationship in any
Sherlock Holmes adaptation is rife with potential because of just how out of the box Holmes is.
Making her a African American woman like Watson diminishes the distance between them,
but her success, wealth, social status, and the mystery of her background distances her further.
Their relationship, in addition to the tight first person deep dive on Watson herself, is the strongest
part of the novel, and the real reason, I think, to read the novel. It would not be a Sherlock Holmes story without a mystery, and without Holmes and Watson
going off and trying to solve the mystery. Even in an age of computers and instant information
and databases, Holmes’ powers of deduction, and Watson’s determination, are still necessary
to unravel the central problem. Computers provide O’Dell’s Holmes with more information, but
it still takes Holmes’ powers to put the information together in the classic Holmesian manner and
come up with her deductions. The mystery at hand does tie into the ongoing Civil War, and into Watson’s own experiences
at the end of the Civil War itself. The mystery, while a fair one, though, is a pale shadow of the
other charms of the novel. I was enchanted and entranced by Janet’s story, and her
relationship with Holmes, and how all that unfolds, much more than the mystery the two
of them stumble into. This is a novel I read for character, much more than plot or even setting,
although the near future the author posits, from technology to social change and historical
change, is very well done. Based on the strength of her two characters and this world, I hope that there will be a sequel,
because I surely would enjoy reading much more about this Watson and this Holmes in this darkly
imagined near future world.

The Math

Baseline Assessment 7/10

Bonuses : +1 for an amazingly strong central character, whose plight and story come across vividly
on the page. +1 for Watson and Holmes’ relationship, which blazes across the page

Penalties : -1 the central plot and mystery may in itself be a bit short and is overshadowed
by the characterization and the strong character beats.

Nerd Coefficient : 8/10 "Well worth your time and attention”

Recently, the Raleigh Warehouse District was named one of the top up and coming neighborhoods in the country. Located just off of Morgan Street, in the southwestern part of downtown Raleigh, this neighborhood is only growing. If you’re looking to move to downtown, now could be the best time to do so.

If you’re not familiar with the Warehouse District, it could be because all of the construction that’s been going on the past few years. Currently, the $80 million project, Union Station, is being built. Union Station will be a multi-modal facility, including the Amtrak, a civic hall, commercial rental space, and more. Not to mention the The Dillon, which is another large building that will also provide office space, residential living, and retail.

Leading the way in entrepreneurship and innovation is HQ Raleigh, the startup hub that has only been growing since it started. Tech-giant Citrix is also located there, with its huge buildings that you can’t miss. Another coworking station, The Assembly, is a shared studio space and platform for independent creatives.

Not only is there job opportunities, you’ll find lots of great food and drink opportunities in the Warehouse District. If you’ve lived in the Triangle for a while, The Pit is probably on your list of places to eat. It’s some of the best barbecue in town, with an awesome atmosphere. Craft chocolate and coffee drinks are at Videri Chocolate Factory, where you can even take a tour! If it’s drinks you’re looking for, check out Crank Arm Brewing.

Tons of the neighborhoods brick buildings have been transformed into public art spaces. You’ll find large murals everywhere, even USA Today called it one of the best art neighborhoods in the nation.

Are you looking to move to downtown Raleigh? Find your dream home today!

Germany preparing to attack Syria

Third World War

Berlin: A leading German daily claimed that if the Assad regime resorts to a chemical attack in Syria, the German fighter jets may also join the United States, the United Kingdom and France in the air attacks in Syria. The Daily further claimed that German Defence Minister, Ursula Leyen, is exploring different strategies about the air raids on Syria.

In the month of April, French and British fighter jets had joined the United States in its attacks on Syria after the United States initiated action against the Syrian government, accusing it of chemical attacks. It is claimed that the Assad regime is once again planning a chemical attack, similar to one in April.

In view of this, the warships of the United States, the United Kingdom and France are in a state of readiness in the Mediterranean to attack Syria. The British airbase in Cyprus has also been activated. Till date, Germany had only announced assistance in the attacks, avoiding direct involvement. But for the first time, Germany has expressed willingness to participate in these attacks on the Assad regime in Syria.

TULSA, Oklahoma - Editor's note: Lorkovic's accordion was taken from the Brady Theater, not the Mayo Hotel.

The "most photographed Chinese accordion in the world" has been snatched by thieves who were most likely looking to score some pretty cool folk art from an event honoring an Oklahoma music legend.

Radoslav Lorkovic is one of the musicians who was in Tulsa to perform the "This Land is Your Land: A Woody Guthrie Centennial Concert" at the Brady Theater Saturday night.

"I was in the upstairs lounge, having a few drinks with friends, and the accordion was in its case, leaning up against the wall," Lorkovic said.

"Just being a musician, I kept looking over to check to make sure it was still there, like I always do, and then I looked over and was shocked to see it was gone."

He found out from a security guard that two men carried out a case with stickers all over it.

Lorkovic was astonished, but seems to have a good sense of humor about it.

"I said, 'That's it, they actually stole my accordion,'" Radoslav Lorkovic said with a laugh. "Really, the case is worth more than the instrument itself. "

Lorkovic said the incident doesn't leave him with a bad impression of Tulsa.

"I'm sure what happened was [the thieves] were just fascinated with memorabilia from such a big event," Lorkovic said. "The case has stickers on it from 20 years of folk festivals throughout the world."

Saturday's concert at the Brady, Lorkovic said, was a shining moment for him. The stage hosted some of the biggest names in music -- from Roseanne Cash and Jackson Browne to Old Crowe Medicine Show and Oklahoma's Flaming Lips -- who were all there to honor Guthrie.

"It was magnificent," Lorkovic said. "It was the greatest show I've ever been a part of in my life. Woody Guthrie was the most influential, if not the influence of my career. Most of the people I admire count him as an influence, Bob Dylan, Jackson Browne – who I had the pleasure of playing with Saturday night."

As for the missing accordion, Lorkovic said, a friend has put up a reward, which is lot more than a pawn shop would pay for it.

"It is worth very little, if anything at all," he said. "It's worth the world to me though."

Lorkovic said he was gifted the instrument in 1992, when he met the original owner at a show in Italy.

"I told him I was madly in love with it," Lorkovic said. "...Then later he stopped his show and gave it to me. I haven't played another accordion in 20 years."

Lorkovic is hoping the accordion-snatchers have a change of heart and return the instrument to the front desk at the Mayo Hotel.

You can visit Lorkovic's Facebook page to learn more about him.

Mamata congratulates Indian astronomers for 'Saraswati' galaxy supercluster

Kolkata, July 17 (IANS) West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Monday congratulated the team of Indian astronomers who identified a previously unknown, extremely large supercluster of galaxies christened “Saraswati” located in the direction of the constellation Pisces.

“Congratulations to Indian scientists for discovering #Saraswati Supercluster, largest structure in the Universe, size 60 Cr light years.Saraswati” river of galaxies found by team led by Joydeep Bagchi #IUCAAPune & Somak Raychaudhury (Presidency Univ & IUCAA) #BiswaBangla,” she tweeted.

“Saraswati”, one of the largest known structures in the nearby universe, is at a distance of 4,000 million light-years away from us, the astronomers said on Friday.

This discovery by astronomers from the Inter University Centre for Astronomy and Astrophysics (IUCAA) and the Indian Institute of Science Education and Research (IISER) – both in Pune – and members of two other Indian universities will be published in the forthcoming issue of The Astrophysical Journal of the American Astronomical Society.

Superclusters are the largest coherent structures in the cosmic web.

A supercluster is a chain of galaxies and galaxy clusters, bound by gravity, often stretching to several hundred times the size of clusters of galaxies, consisting of tens of thousands of galaxies.

This newly-discovered “Saraswati” supercluster, for instance, extends over a scale of 600 million light-years and may contain the mass equivalent of over 20 million billion suns.

The “Saraswati” supercluster is observed as it was when the universe was 10 billion years old.

Researchers from Newman College in Thodupuzha, Kerala, and the National Institute of Technology in Jamshedpur, Jharkhand, were also involved in the research.

How Efficient

Drop Ryan off at 8:30.
Surgery at 9:30.
An hour of recovery.

I have the boys with me because Ryan failed to find ou if I needed to stay (they preferred I did) and didn't realize this until the day before surgery. (yet it was still my fault I didn't find a sitter because "I had 2 weeks to find one").

I dropped Ry off and took the boys for a haircut and we hung out at the nearby Toy house.

I got a call a 10:40 that surgery was done and he'd be ready in about 20 minutes.

We finish up at Toy house and get to the surgery center around 11:15.

It is now 12:15 and we are still waiting. The boys are hungry, it's nearing naptime and they have been cooped up in a waiting room for an hour.

We are now outside playing in the landscaping. Throwing rocks is more fun than sitting quietly.

Stuart Hughes, a gentleman from Liverpool, happened to become rather bored with his white plastic Wii. Rather than sitting at home whining about it, he decided to put his skills as a jeweller to work and create something rather different.

The results of his labours? This rather fine golden Wii, or Wii SUPREME as Stuart calls it. Crafted with over two-and-a-half kilos of 22ct gold, a total of 19.5ct diamonds, six months of tireless precision and literally limitless quantities of poor taste, the Wii SUPREME will be limited to just three units for fine purveyors of videogaming bling. We at Nintendo Life have no doubt that rappers will happily shoot their rivals to get one of these. Please note your controllers will still be in boring old plastic as Mr Hughes is presumably too busy admiring his console handiwork to cover those fiddle buttons in the same golden treatment.

This fine piece of 'art' will set you, or your neighbourhood rockstar, back 300,000 of your finest Pounds Sterling. Stuart proudly boasts the Wii SUPREME (we aren't joking, supreme is in all caps) is the world's most expensive console. Apparently Stuart hasn't tried to find a Neo Geo MVS with its full ROM set.

Ben Heck, eat your heart out.

Extended Warranty

Remote-Reservoir Rear Shock (2-Way Adjustable)

The perfect ROAD and TRACK-DAY shock - built just for you, to your spec.

Nitron's mid-range track shocks offer the same consistent performance often only found in other makers' far more costly "race-level" shocks.

Offering significant dynamic and adjustability range benefits over OE sports bike shocks, this is the perfect unit for anyone looking for the best value performance shock you can buy, making it ideal for mixed road and track use.

"Beautifully crafted here in the UK. A larger range of adjustment that actually adjusts and damping that actually damps. Bolted to an NWS Linkage, it has replaced old and knackered with new and fresh, as well as old technology with new technology.

Now the ZXR has more grip than ever before."

JM, Performance Bikes Magazine
Kawasaki ZXR750

Made in England, all Nitron shocks are totally rebuildable and backed by Nitron's US based technical support and service operations.

Please include your weight (with any specific requirements you may have regarding whether you want a lower or higher default seat height - i.e. if you are taller or shorter than average) and state how your bike is used (i.e. road solo only, road with pillion, road and track or track only etc.) as we will be building your shock to your specific order with the optimum length, spring rate and damper adjustments pre-set for you.

  • Nitron will build your shock to order with the specification based on your individual needs and with all adjustments pre-set (see above)
  • Manufactured with a hard-anodised corrosion-resistant aluminium alloy CNC machined body using the highest quality internal components
  • Remote Hose (H) or Piggy-Back (PB) mounted gas pressure reservoir (bike model application dependent) for fade-free consistent high-performance operation
  • Manual preload adjustment with included C-Spanner, or...Optional Hydraulic Remote Preload Adjuster System (HPA) for quick changes to rear ride-height to vary steering response between road and track (also ideal for shorter riders or for those bikes where the laden weight varies significantly; e.g. from solo to with pillion & luggage)
  • Adjustable length as standard on most models (ideal for shorter riders who may want to reduce seat height)
  • For shorter riders the typical lower seat height achievable is up to 30mm/1.25"
  • Separate compression and rebound damping adjustment for more advanced bike setup
  • By far the best value high-quality, high-performance shock you can buy
  • Very light weight (e.g. Triumph Daytona675, more than 0.5 Kg lighter, even with Hydraulic Preload Preload Adjuster included for Race version)
  • 3rd piston Shim-Stack for very low speed rebound damping control
  • Teflon lined low-friction rose jointed eyes where applicable (bike-dependent end fittings may differ from those shown here)
  • Ultra low-friction piston rod seal design
  • Completely rebuildable/re-valvable with rapid UK maintenance and support service
  • The highest quality and best value high performance road / track shock you can buy

Cannoli, Latkes & Guilt!

Thursday, July 26 @ 7:30 pm
in the Northlight Theatre – Presented by North Shore Center – Skokie
$37 | $45

Discounts for Groups 15+ – Call Group Theater Tix: 312-423-6612

From the creator of: My Mother’s Italian, My Father’s Jewish & I’m in Therapy

Steve Solomon’s
Cannoli, Latkes & Guilt! the therapy continues…

Steve Solomon is the author and star of the three-time award-winning, critically-acclaimed show My Mother’s Italian, My Father’s Jewish & I’m in Therapy. This summer we bring you Cannoli, Latkes & Guilt!…the therapy continues, Steve’s newest project.  Almost a million people throughout the United States and overseas have laughed until they cried at Steve’s hit shows My Mother’s Italian, My Father’s Jewish & I’m in Therapy; My Mother’s Italian, My Father’s Jewish & I’m STILL in Therapy; and his hilarious holiday show, My Mother’s Italian, My Father’s Jewish & I’m HOME for the Holidays—Steve’s personal favorite!

A native of Brooklyn, Steve grew up in the multi-ethnic neighborhood of Sheepshead Bay. This was the perfect training ground for a dialectician. As the class clown, and as a very authentic sounding Chinese restaurant delivery boy, Steve learned at an early age how to use his gift for imitating accents to his advantage. Later, he became a physics teacher and an Assistant Superintendent of Schools on Long Island. He left academia to follow his first love—comedy writing and performing. Steve is the winner of the CT Drama Desk Award and was nominated by the San Francisco Critics Circle for Best Actor in a One-Man Play. His show awards include Best New Play (BroadwayWorld.com).

People who have seen Steve’s shows, whether performed by Steve himself or one of his Tony Award-winning actors, leave the theaters identifying with the characters portrayed in the shows. “It’s the nuances that make the shows work” Steve says. “…the things that Pop mumbles;” like the time Steve asked him about marriage; “Dad, why do people get married?” Dad responds, “Marriage is like a bank account…you put it in…you take it out…you lose interest!”

This show is a laugh-filled fest of everybody you know, have known and some you’d want to forget, but can’t! Each of the twenty or so characters are brought to life by Steve using the voices and dialects that they possess in real life. Close your eyes and you’d swear there were two or three people chatting on stage. All these people are created by comedian and master dialectician—Steve Solomon.  Prepare to laugh, prepare to cry, and prepare to spend a wonderful side-splitting evening with Steve and his wacky family and friends.
