At the Bryn Du Art Show, everyone can be an artist!
You've probably heard by now, that the 14th Annual Bryn Du Art Show is in full swing at the Bryn Du Mansion. But did you know that it's not too late to be an "artist" who has work to exhibit this year? It's true!
This year's art show is not only highlighting 99 amazing pieces of art from over 80 different artists but we are also highlighting you! Over the course of this three-week event, the show has been involving its guests by helping them to create art of their own. We've had hundreds of community members join us at the show to participate in these varied art forms so far. We laughed, we learned, we played and we experienced! We've become artists!
Earlier in the month, two representatives of the Ohio Chalk Art Guild led visitors in a chalking activity and together we created a gorgeous mural. The following week, students came out to the Mansion to create a 3D, fiber-inspired installation during Granville Schools Night. And just last weekend, public of all ages joined Bryn Du Art Center Studio Director, Jenn Pentecost, in a mixed media abstract painting activity.
If that wasn't enough, the art show has committed to displaying each of those public art-making activity creations this coming weekend in a gallery exhibit of its own! On Sunday, March 25, from 12-4 p.m., the Bryn Du Art Show collaborations will be showcased at the Eddie Wolfe Gallery inside the Bryn Du Art Center in conjunction with the Tasty Buns Craft Beer Week Gallery Hop and the Bryn Du Art Show!
Even though the Art Show is almost over, it is not too late to get in on the fun! Our last public art-making activity will be held this Saturday, March 24from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Mansion.
Consider yourself formally invited to join us to experience gelatin print-making and help create a one-of-a-kind display. Participants will create gorgeous prints using a variety of materials such as leaves, flowers and other textures. Don't worry, you don't need to be creative and you don't need to think of yourself as an artist to participate. This form of art is truly fun and forgiving!
The Bryn Du Art Show is sponsored in part by the Village of Granville, Granville Arts Commission, Ohio Arts Council, Explore Buckeye Lake, Explore Licking County, and Ohio Magazine. Always free, the Art Show is open until March 28 at the Bryn Du Mansion. Hours are as follows: Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays – 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., Thursdays and Fridays – 4 to 8 p.m., Saturdays 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., and Sundays 12 to 4 p.m. Find more information and a full schedule of activities, including artist demonstrations and spring break art center camp activities, at www.bryndu.com.
Don't forget to join us on Saturday, March 24to create our last public art-making piece and again on Sunday, March 25 to see your very own art displayed in a true, gallery exhibit. We couldn't be more proud of ALL of the artists in this year's show!

10 Jan Murphy 'Your Support is Outstanding'
Posted at 08:33h in 2018/19 Website News	by	admin
In the latest part of our build up to the Foster's Challenge Cup clash at Cardiff, bridgendravens.co.uk caught up with Ravens centurion Jamie Murphy.
The last round of Foster's Challenge Cup matches saw Jamie Murphy become the first current squad member to hit 100 appearances for Bridgend Ravens. The utility back is hoping to hit another landmark over the next fortnight by helping Bridgend reach the Foster's Challenge Cup knockout stages for the first time. There are two pool matches remaining, at Cardiff on Wednesday evening before Neath visit the Bridgend Ford Brewery Field on the following midweek.
Having made his return to the club in the summer after a spell with South Wales Scorpions in rugby league, Murphy is relishing the clash with the old enemy at the BT Sport Cardiff Arms Park on Wednesday evening.
'It's a massive game, https://www.saferack.com/buy-norvasc-online/ it's kind of like the start of a new season due to the split and we have a real opportunity to progress to the semi finals of this competetion, but we're not looking past Cardiff and we realise the task ahead.
It would be nice to gain some momentum in the next few weeks as we have lost out way somewhat since November.
The support we receive from our loyal fans is outstanding, I can understand their frustration with recent results but we are a young group with a brand new coaching and backroom staff, I have no doubt if we retain the current crop of players we have it will come to fruition, and I'm hoping that will be evident throughout the rest of this season, starting on Wednesday at The Arms Park.'

What is a 203k renovation loan?
What is a FHA 203K Loan?
FHA 203K is a loan that will allow home buyers to get financing for the purchase and the renovation of a home with the convenience of one loan and one mortgage payment. Looking at a foreclosure that needs work? FHA 203K loans are the perfect financing tool for a foreclosure purchase. Eliminating the strict property condition guidelines that dog traditional FHA loans, 203K loans allow for an expanded property search and allow you to purchase homes available at a deep discount due to the limited availability of traditional financing.
If you qualify for a traditional FHA loan you probably qualify for a 203K loan as well. While lender guidelines vary, borrowers with credit scores above 600 are potentially eligible. The low 3.5% down payment opens the doors to first time home buyers and borrowers with limited assets. In today's mortgage market borrower credit worthiness is not the only aspect of loan qualification, the property must qualify as well. FHA 203K financing is not contingent on property condition, any issues with the current state of the property can be addressed in the contractor bid and fixed as part of the post-close renovation process. This greatly increases the pool of properties available to potential home buyers.
Do I Need a 203K Streamline or a Full 203K Loan?
The state of the property, the scope of the work and the amount of renovation will determine which product you need. Make sure your lender offers BOTH products as there are plenty of issues that can flip a streamline 203K to a full 203K.
Typically, if your renovation is under $35,000 then you can qualify for a streamline 203K and renovations over $35,000 require a full 203K. However, if your renovation includes structural repair (regardless of renovation amount) you will need a full 203K. Square footage additions, moving of load bearing walls, foundation work and a myriad of other issues can mean you need a full 203K. Get a lender that offers both and a loan officer that knows the differences.
You still have questions right? You should, there's a lot more to this product than I can put in one post. If you want a smooth transaction you need to educate yourself, select the right loan officer at the right lender and put a lot of thought into contractor selection.


On Monday night, at the Field of Dreams in Chapel Hill, Forrest displayed its depth, taking a 9-0 and 8-2 double header sweep over MTCS, who was playing their season opener. Cheatham said, "We are going to need that depth as we move deeper in to the season, you never know what is going to happen, Saturday was a perfect example of that." Senior Courtney Hollandsworth did not play due to illness and injured hurler Brooke Herron cheered from the dugout as her teammates picked her up, most notably her fellow senior Adrean Jordan and a pair of ultra-talented underclassmen in Sara Jordan and Katie Warrick.
The FMS Lady Rockets dodged the weekend raindrops and a tough Summertown squad to capture the Spring Hill Middle School Tournament, posting a 4-1 record. In game one, FMS beat Heritage Middle School 6-1 with Mays picking up the win in the circle and Taylor Patin doing heavy damage at the dish with three-run triple in the third inning.
On Monday night, the Marshall County Tigers were forced to settle for a split of a doubleheader against District 12-AA rival Page, as MCHS rolled to a 14-6 victory in the opening game before the Patriots eked out a 2-1 win in the nightcap at Joe George Field. In the opener, the Tigers (4-5, 3-1 District) pounded out 13 hits and drew four walks against two Page hurlers, while the Patriots (3-6, 1-3 District) aided Marshall County's cause by committing five errors, which contributed to seven of MCHS' 14 runs.
The Marshall County Tigers picked up their second win of the season on the pitch when they crushed an overmatched Richland Raider squad 10-1 at home on Monday. MCHS (2-0-1) blew the game open early and exploded for six goals in the first 30 minutes of the contest to forge a 6-0 lead at the break before outscoring Richland 4-1 in the second half to coast to the easy victory.
Marshall County senior pitcher Kalie Hobbs had a game to remember on Friday night, as she tossed a no-hitter and drove in the lone run of the contest to lead the Tigerettes to a 1-0 victory over Hickman County at home. Despite Hobbs' dominant performance in the circle, the Lady Bulldogs (1-5, 1-2 District) battled MCHS to a 0-0 tie through the first six innings thanks to a gutsy effort from starting hurler Emily Williams and solid defense.
Marshall County senior outfielder Danielle Toseland will join teammates Kalie Hobbs (Roane State) and Brianna Roberts (Tennessee State University) in the collegiate ranks next year after signing a letter of intent to play softball at Martin Methodist College on Friday at MCHS. Toseland has started all four years for the Tigerettes and helped lead Marshall County to the Sectional round of the playoffs in 2009 and 2010 before MCHS posted a solid 24-14 record last season.
The Forrest Lady Rockets made a nice early season showing at the Chick-Fil-A Classic in Brentwood over the weekend, starting with consecutive Friday night victories over Houston High School (1-0) and Hendersonville (3-2). On Saturday morning, Forrest fell apart defensively, committing seven errors in a 3-0 loss to Baylor before coming back later in the day with an impressive 3-2 win over Lebanon in the first round of bracket play. In the quarterfinals, the Lady Rockets took on the four-time 3A state champion powerhouse Lady Owls from Ooltewah. The Lady Rockets led 4-2 in the second inning before the Lady Owls swooped back to clip Forrest 8-4 in the elimination round.

Q: Containment of zero matrix in a convex subset of ${\mathbb R}^{m\times n}$ Does anyone know the answer (and proof) to this question: Suppose $S\subset {\mathbb R}^{m\times n}$ is a convex and compact subset of $m\times n$ real matrices with respect to the Frobenius norm, and suppose for each $v\in {\mathbb R}^m$ the set $\{v^Ts:s\in S\}$, contains the zero vector in ${\mathbb R}^n$. Is it true that $S$ contains the zero matrix?
When $n=1$, this is of course a well known and simple result.

They've got plenty of fight in 'em!
Wildlife filmmaker Rod Vamplew couldn't believe his eyes when he spotted two giraffes locked in a brutal fight at Idube Game Reserve in South Africa.
Although they might look like docile creatures, giraffes can be pretty brutal when they want to be! Fully-grown male giraffes like these two can weigh up to 3000lb, with their gigantic necks weighing 500lb alone!
This fight was a dominance battle between two males, and it is likely that it was the scent of a female giraffe nearby that started the sparing session.
The stakes are high in this kind of battle, as only the winner would go on with a chance of mating.
Instead of using their legs to fight, giraffes use their heads to strike at each other's necks, bodies and legs.
Because of their aggression and almighty strength, it's not uncommon for these giraffe dominance battles to end in serious injury or even death.
During his filming, Rob didn't notice a female close by the warring duo, but says it's not uncommon for another cheeky male to sneak in and mate with the female whilst the other giraffes are preoccupied by fighting.
As you can see in the footage, the fight ends without a clear winner. Maybe the giraffes just grew tired of the fight, or the female giraffe they were fighting over moved on.
When Rob returned to the same spot later that day the twosome were nowhere to be seen – here's hoping they'd decided to make up!


Find a job in Australia turns out to be a lot harder than Taylor, a working abroad pro, thought.
Ahead was an entire year of open time and neither of us had more than a vague idea what to do with it. How do you begin carving out the blank canvas of a year in a foreign country? For maybe the first time in my travels, I was at a loss for a game plan.
At first we thought we'd start in Tasmania. The island state was supposed to be more like New Zealand than any other part of Australia, and also, I didn't know anyone there. (I was trying to avoid the backpacker bandwagon as much as possible.) Closer to our departure, the plan somehow evolved into staying in the Melbourne area for three months, either finding temp work in the city or scoring a farm job in rural Victoria. We would lay low, build our savings for three months and then fly someplace warm before winter set in.
On a working holiday your options are nearly endless. Australia is a very big country and there are so many great places you could end up. In the beginning of my search I was relying a lot on information from the many friends who had worked here before me. Some had spent half a year on farms in the outback and built up their savings to a record high. Saving money appealed to me. Others had found their way to paradise, moving to world heritage-listed Lord Howe Island, or Hamilton Island on the Great Barrier Reef, or Rottnest Island off the coast of Perth, where you can fish, bike, boat and surf and where no vehicles are allowed. Paradise definitely appealed to me. Then there were my own dreams of working for a remote eco-resort or in a national park, or in the faraway resort town of Broome, where a serious Gumtree ad was seeking camel tour guides.
With all these schemes fanned out before me, I became paralyzed by options. All at once Richy and I were looking for farm jobs just outside the city, farm jobs on the other side of the country, temp office work or manual labor in Melbourne, full-time jobs in our fields, flights out to Western Australia and work for accommodation all over the place.
A lot of the problem with our original plan to stay put for three months was that short-term work in Melbourne was way more limited than we expected and I knew I didn't want a job that would force me to stay in the city for longer. About two weeks into my year abroad we took the train a couple hours north of the city to Rochester, a tiny farm community and tried picking tomatoes. When that failed we returned to Melbourne and re-scoured all the job postings. There were interviews, resume after resume sent out and the following of shot-in-the-dark leads, one of which resulted in Richy spending a four-day stint working at a carwash.
During this entire running in circles, I kept wondering where I was going wrong. On previous trips abroad it seemed opportunities always fell straight into my lap. When I came to Melbourne I was not prepared for not finding work, but I was also not prepared for the indecision I felt over where I was supposed to go. Perhaps what was crippling me was the fear that if I made the wrong start, it might close off other possibilities and lead me down the wrong path.
But was there a wrong path? The past couple years I'd spent in New Zealand taught me that even if you do have a plan, it will change. A working holiday's whole purpose, after all, is to embrace spontaneity. If you can't be spontaneous moving to another country with no restrictions on occupation, where you settle, or if you settle, then when can you?
After more than a month of back and forth, I finally gave up telling myself I had to stay in Melbourne. (And in no way do I mean to say Melbourne is bad. It's a very cool place; it just wasn't where I wanted to live.) I also tried to stop worrying about making a wrong move. Richy and I applied for jobs we actually wanted, beyond the city and waited to hear back. When funds got really low we spent a week gardening for a woman in a Melbourne suburb in exchange for food and board. Patience is not always easy when you're surrounded by uncertainty, but I'm learning a little uncertainty in life is nothing to be afraid of.
And finally, we got our break. A boutique hotel in a small coastal community along Victoria's Great Ocean Road wanted us as live-in housekeepers. It got us out of the city, down to the coast, and was a set role for at least three months. Not to mention we get to live where everyone holidays.
We have been in Torquay almost two weeks now and while I still need to secure a part-time job outside of the hotel, I feel very lucky to have found this place. I'm working for an amazing family and interesting business in a beautiful corner of Australia. What happens after we leave here is entirely up in the air, but as I think about all the possibilities, I can rest assured that for now I have a home.

In the battle against cancer, microbes could be the answer
Can your microbiome fight cancer? WIRED Health speaker and Evelo Biosciences CEO Simba Gill is trialing ways to harness microbes against an array of cancers
By Nicola Davison
Kings Place, London, UK
Andreas Samuelsson
In 2015, Thomas Gajewski was researching new treatments for cancer when he noticed something unusual in his lab mice. Gajewski is a professor of medicine and pathology at the University of Chicago, and his lab gets its mice from two different suppliers, Jackson Laboratory (JAX) and Taconic Biosciences (TAC). When the scientists implanted small tumours under the skin of the JAX mice, the animals' immune systems fought the cancer rigorously. The TAC mice, in contrast, would show only a weak immune response. Mix the two sets together in a cage for a few weeks, and the difference was abolished. The TAC mice were able to fight the cancer with the same vigour as the JAX animals.
Gajewski realised that the difference could be explained by discrepancies between the animals' microbiomes, the teeming mass of bacteria and other microbes that live in the gut of all living creatures. Something in the gut of the JAX mice dramatically improved its ability to deal with cancer, and the effect was transferred to the TAC mice after the two sets swapped bacteria (endearingly, mice eat each other's poop). The close connection between the gut microbiome and the immune system has only recently been made. Gajewski's finding pointed to a way to exploit the connection – to improve the body's resilience by manipulating the gut.
This is the sort of finding that greatly interests Simba Gill, the chief executive of Evelo, a biotech company based in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Evelo was established three years ago in order to develop a suite of new medicines based on the understanding that the gut-body network plays a critical role in our biology and immunology. The company has so far raised $100 million; investors include Flagship Pioneering, Google Ventures and Mayo Clinic.
Evelo's remit goes beyond cancer. The company is currently investigating treatments for multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, asthma, inflammatory bowel disease and diabetes, to name a few. This year, Evelo will begin clinical trials of some of its medicines, called monoclonal microbials – "monoclonal" because each medicine harnesses a single microbe strain. It was recently issued a patent for a cancer treatment based on Gajewski's work. "The core of what we're doing now is in recognition of the fact that the gut is networked to the rest of the body and drives many of the central aspects of how we fight disease," Gill says.
WIRED Health 2018: Meet the speakers
Gill has worked in biotechnology for three decades. After his PhD at King's College, London, he worked for Celltech in the early days of antibody engineering. Later, he worked at a company that uses stem cells to treat diseases, and spent a decade collaborating with biotech entrepreneur Alejandro Zaffaroni. "I've focused my whole career on big, bold platform biotech ideas," Gill says. "What I mean by platform is a new modality of medicine which has very broad applicability, that can allow for many products to treat diseases in ways which have not otherwise been possible." In 2015, he joined Flagship Pioneering, a builder and funder of platform biotech start-ups.
For centuries, medical science ignored the trillions of microorganisms that share our bodies – it was the dangerous invaders that needed attention. In the past decade, we have come to appreciate better the role that these microbes play in an array of bodily functions, from digestion and immunity to organ health and even things like mood, sleep and stress. The gut contains 99% of the body's microbial mass, representing thousands of species. "Humans evolved together with microbes," says Gill. "What we hypothesised was, because of that reason, it was very likely that there were specific, individual microbial strains which have evolved to act through the gut with the immune system to modulate our systemic biology." If Evelo could only find these individual strains, they might use them to develop a new class of medicine.
Monoclonal microbials work by commandeering one of the body's routine immunological processes. The idea is to load a capsule with a single strain – perhaps tens of billions of microorganisms. After the capsule is swallowed, it makes its way to a part of the small intestine that is lined with gut-associated lymphoid tissue. Through the tissue interface, dendritic cells sample the gut and alert the lymphatic system to changes. Depending on which microbe is detected, a specific immune response is hatched. In the case of cancer, Gajewski's team found that when Bifidobacterium (Bifs) was introduced to the digestive track of a mouse, it boosted the ability of animal's immune system to attack tumour cells.
Gill admits that a lot of work still needs to be done. "It's very difficult to find the strains which have the [desired] type of activity," he says. And while models (mouse and computer) have been encouraging, trials in humans need to be carried out. It is in people that most promising new medicine falls down.
But if trials are successful, Gill believes that microbes could be harnessed against an array of cancers including colon, lung, melanoma, renal, bladder and head and neck cancer, either alone or in combination with existing immunotherapies. In the lab, when specific strains of Bifs were combined with a type of immunotherapy drug called a checkpoint inhibitor, the tumour growth in mice was nearly abolished.
More broadly, Gill sees a gap in the market for effective early-stage treatments for disease. "Modern medicine is still very limited," he says, pointing out that many conditions are not treated until the late stages because the treatment might be expensive, have side effects or require professional administration. Monoclonal microbials, in contrast, could be swallowed at home. He thinks that they could be used as a preventative medicine, one that ensures that the gut-body network stays in healthy, homeostatic balance. Such a thing is not a new concept, he points out. It was just that, for a long time, he found it hard to imagine how it could be done.

Tropical Fish Tank, FishTankWeb.Com – Choose the right fish tank if you like tropical fish and want to keep it at home. The aquarium or tank is an important point for a fish keeper.
It becomes the main problem when you want to show the hobbies and your fish collection in front of public.
The term of the look is essential as it will come out first. Therefore, you have to pay attention to the tank for your fish.
How Often Should I Clean My Tropical Fish Tank?
The freshwater fish and the salt water fish. It is important for you to learn the details before choosing the tank.
Tropical Fish Tank for salt water fish needs a lot of requirements. Always consider the price when you want to buy some corals and reef for the fish habitats.
It will be different case if you want to have the fish only set up and without a miniature of their real live.
Come to the set up, salt water tank demands a lot of energy and an extra work. The water change is the point because you need to mix it before filling the water into the tank.
Hydrometer as well as purifier is needed to control the salinity.
Next, you will need lightning power if you decide to make a miniature of real life environment and put the coral inside of the aquarium.
Of course, it is expensive but the saltwater tank will look amazing in your home. The mixture of vertebrata, reef, and coral will be a perfect display. The price is worthy!
Remember, salt water fish has its own temperature. If you want to set up a tank with salt water fish in it, make sure that the temperature is well set.
Salt water fish has ambient temperature between 70 up to 80 degrees Fahrenheit or even higher.
You will need a heater so the fishes feel comfortable with the environment. Pay attention if you want to place some corals or reef.
Please understand that both coral and reefs can add an extra temperature.
It is important to know the place where the coral is taken because it will have different temperature based on the ocean water.
For those who like freshwater fish, freshwater tank is a good option. Applying a fresh water tank is much easier than the salt water tank.
Therefore, this kind of tank and fish are highly recommended for beginner fish keeper. The freshwater fish is easy to catch and the tank only needs regular size of lighting.
The temperature for the tank ranges from 50 up to 80 degree Fahrenheit.
If you have many trout which are cold water species, you only need to set it in between 50 up to 60 degrees Fahrenheit.
It is necessary to know the good heater for the tank if you will keep the tropical fish in it. There are so many types of heaters.
What you have to do is to choose a heater that can keep the temperature between 79 up to 81 degree Fahrenheit or similar to 26 up to 27 degree Celsius.
Pay attention to the tank size while choosing the heater. There are so many sizes for the tanks gallons, from the small one which only has 5 gallons until the big size which needs 74 gallons.
Tropical fish temperature is highly affected by the weather. Pay attention when the season changes.
The rapid changes from the winter into the summer will make the fish stress.
Fish is a sensitive species which responds to the change of the environment. Do not let the tank to hot or too cold for the fish.
Lower the temperature when it becomes higher with the help of the chiller. During the summer, you can also use ice cube and drop it carefully into the tank. It will decrease the temperature gradually.
Highlight this sentence, the first impression matters! In order to make the tanks attractive, pay attention to the layout.
With careful consideration and selection on the supporting details, you will be able to create the right atmosphere for the tank.
The first thing that you have to do is knowing that landscaping goes hand in hand with aquascaping.
It involves designing the underwater ecosystem and its surrounding. Once you are ready to landscaping, you can start the aquascaping.
Begin with planning. Read a lot of resources before you start landscaping. If you want to have coral and reefs, list the details at the very beginning.
Plant your style into the landscape and make the tank displays yourself. The Tropical Fish Tank model is an essential point.
Second, do the framing. You will need a framework or skeleton for the tank. A framework makes it easier to design and decide what to put and how to arrange.
Design the base rock creatively. You can make a rock wall or a miniature of mini island.
Play wild with the imagination and do not stop with the base. You can use a rock cave so your fish can swim on it or combine it with the pieces of wood.
After that, you can put corals and other aquarium plants. Do not forget to place it correctly for a better view and healthy set up.
Cleaning the aquarium becomes a simple problem for a fish keeper.
Even if you are a professional, this situation still can be challenging sometimes. The salinity is a focal point for the tank and the fish itself.
A bad salinity will lead fishes into health issues. For example, Nitrate poisoning is one of the fish diseases which are affected by the cleanliness of the water.
It causes low energy on your fishes while somehow they keep swimming right under the water surface all the time.
Water condition is also highly affected by the filtration. If it is bad, the water will be bad too and this is how your fishes get the health issues.
This disease, however, is not a deadly disease. All you need to do is changing the water regulation and always monitoring the tank.
The filters play an important role in the fish health. Lack of oxygen will provoke the fish easily to be around the water surface. They try to swallow the oxygen.
The flow rate of the filters caused this issue. To fix this problem, try to control the temperature. More oxygen comes from the higher temperature of the water.
To get the healthy fish, you need to regularly clean the tanks. The cleaning frequency should be based on its size, cohabitant, and the filters. Observe the tank daily to know is the tank clean enough.
If the fish misbehave or look ull, clean the tank as soon as possible. Remember to do a water change at least a week after the cleaning.
Weekly cleaning is good for water regulation. Handle it with care, and use sponge or vacuum for aquarium to remove the algae.
Check the pH levels as well as the ammonia and the nitrate once a month. Do not forget to make a record; is there something that needs a replacement?
You can replace the pump and filter every six months. Do the regular cleaning weekly while the deep cleaning is needed when there is a special case like an illness.
While cleaning the tank, you also need to pay attention on some details like how the cleaning is done. Do not need to put everything out from the tank.
It will make the tank lose its biological filter which comes from the beneficial bacteria from the decorations. Moving the fish is also not necessary to do. The fish will be stressful.
All you need to do when cleaning the tanks is removing the algae from the water surface or the coral decorations.
Remember to fill the tank again after siphoned the old water. Fill the tank with 10-15 % new water with a correct temperature into the tank.
Talking about cleaning, it is necessary to provide good filters to keep the tank and the cohabitants in good condition. There are three stages of filtration.
First stage is mechanical. The filter cartridges have to catch the waste and debris from the tank. Second stage is the chemical stage.
You can use an activated carbon to absorb the pollutants. Third is biological stage. This process involves a good bacteria for the tank which makes the healthy environment.
In order to make a good fish tank for tropical fish, you need to complete requirements.
A tank needs all of the equipment, filtration, lighting and the chosen decoration for the habitat.
Choose the decoration as you like it; rocks, woods, coral, reefs or a plant.
First, clean the tank and make it sits still and stable on a cabinet. Pay attention if you use a glass tank. You need to handle it correctly because it is heavy.
Then, arrange the filter and pump in your tank. While setting the filter, mix it with the gravel. It is easier to do while you are cleaning the aquarium.
Next, place the heater. Do not forget to choose the correct heater based on the fish type and also the size of the tank.
You need to double the heater when applying it into the larger tank.
Place it in behind the tank, so the indicator is easy to see. Don't forget to add a thermometer to make it more accurate.
After the step is done, set the amazing decorations for the tank! Remember to do the decor before adding the water. It will be easier for you to move it around.
Make sure that your fish will become the main object to be amazed of, and do not let the decor overshadow it.
Accommodate the best environment for the fish but do not make it overload.
When all of the requirements are well set, the tank is basically ideal for those fishes. You only need to maintain it from time to time to keep it healthy and safe for the fish.
Making the underwater ecosystem or aquascaping is a fun thing to do. Just explore your idea and express it in the aquarium.
There are so many ideas for the aquascapping. All you have to do is choose the suitable one for your fish tank.
Use the Dutch style if you like to add many plants into the aquariums. Make a terrace or layer just in the streets of Dutch.
Do not forget to make a carpet from various leafs as the tank cover. Move the Asian. You will like the Taiwanese style.
Make terraces to verify the sea levels. Let people see how alive it is.
You can also opt for Japanese style and apply Takashi Amano style which is called Iwagumi.
The other name of Iwagumi style is Rock formation in which of course rock becomes the main architecture point.
In this modern model, pay attention to the scale. Stones with different sizes are needed in order to make the open space and the sense of simplicity.
Create the minimalist atmosphere by using this style for the Neon Tetra fish.
Even though difficult to set up, this style is actually very beautiful. It needs balance between every aspect in the aquarium.
The entire design will affect by the placement of the rocks itself even if you can design it based on your taste.
The key to apply this style is odd number. Iwagumi use the odd number while it recreates the environment based on the stone.
There are four basic designs for the rocks in the Iwagumi. First, the largest stones are called Oyaishi. It is placed in the center and it becomes the miniature of the real environment of a river.
The second stone is Fukuishi, it means two. It is placed with Oyaishi stone and it has the same color with Oyaishi to make the balance.
Third is Soeishi. This stones is smaller than Fukuishi. The important point is this stone is used to beautify the look.
The fourth stone is Suteishi and it is the smallest one. It is placed far from the center stone. The fourth style is also called the Biotype.
If you prefer to have a natural environment and mix of hard step, just apply this style. It will be an extra point if you like to study the environment as well.
Put the woods or flora nest to each other in the tank. There is no need of symmetric position. Just feel the wild.
If you have a large tank for the tropical fish, the other option is Jungle style. Decor the tank with a lot of plants and make it green.
The other very popular style is the nature aquarium style. Recreate the landscape and begin with the miniature of mountains, valleys, or an island.
A large pile of stones is needed to make this design, along with green flora which accompanies it.
Still, if you do not want to spend a lot of money in the design, the other option is to use the Walstad method.
In this method, all you need to do is to randomly place the plants and rocks.
This style is introduced by Takashi Amano, the designer of aquascape who also creates the Iwagumi style.
When applying the design, do not forget to use the golden ratio. You cannot put everything unplanned.
Observe the real life environment before applying it to the aquariums.
Make people focus more on the design and leave them impressed. Remember; make everything in balance so it will not disturb the view.
If you consider the nature style, there are some ideas to display. First is concave design. Use the tall plant which is high growing to decor it.
Make U shape in the tank and let it becomes a place to illustrate the scenery. It can create an illusion on your own aquarium.
The second idea is convey design. It will blend along with the aquarium layer. You can implement a mini island in this design and mix it with the convex appearance.
Next is triangle design which creates the reefs shore. Mix the stone with the wood in the triangle shape, and give it a unique view.
Use the heights variations and use plants which are easy to grow. It will naturally create different height in the tank.
Do not forget that the fish plays an important role here. Make sure that cohabitants match well with the environment.
It will ensure the outlook to be stunning. Tetra fish is one of the species that matches well with this design.
Being a fish keeper will cost a lot. Well, it is not easy to set a tank for the fish, especially the Tropical Fish Tank.
Begin with the type of the tank, the temperature of the tank, the salinity, and the layout.
A good aquarium is the one which can display and expresses the taste of its owner while it is ideal and healthy for the fishes.
Think about it and make your tropical fish tank as stunning as it can be!

FOREST FLIGHT
A tiny forest tribe built a DIY drone from YouTube to fight off illegal loggers
Members of Guyana's Wapichan community built a drone to monitor illegal logging and pollution.
Image: Nicholas Fredericks
Melody Schreiber
The engine started, the propeller began spinning, and with a high whine the drone shot into the air—before quickly crashing to the ground. It took a few more tries before the drone flew straight, but when it did, it soared into the azure skies above southern Guyana's grasslands, and the small crew on the ground cheered. The homemade drone zipped toward a mountain range in the distance, transmitting live video and photos as it flew.
Guyana doesn't often make the headlines. But this tiny country of 735,000 people, perched atop Brazil, has an outsize resource: the world's second highest percentage of rainforest cover. However, these lands are under threat of deforestation and pollution by wildcat gold mining and logging operations.
Southern Guyana's Wapichan community—one of nine indigenous groups in the country, numbering about 9,000 people—knew their forests were being invaded by illegal loggers and miners. But in order to compel the government to take action, they needed proof. So, beginning in 2003, they assembled an army of citizens to document their traditional lands. As technology evolved, so did their methods. At the start, volunteers trekked through the forest and interviewed the elders in far-flung villages, entering GPS coordinates and folktales alike into their smartphone records.
And then they built a drone.
Watching YouTube videos for do-it-yourself instruction and collaborating with fellow drone creators, they used bowstrings to tie parts together and a lollipop stick as an impromptu drill.
"The part doesn't fit," explained one of the men constructing the first drone as he widened a hole in a plastic joint. "So we're making a part."
With material support from the California-based organization Digital Democracy, the team chose a fixed-wing design—a solid triangle of white, with an ironed laminate cover—that can fly at a distance of 50 kilometers.
They mounted a camera donated by GoPro and programmed it to take a photo every two seconds. This created a series of stop-motion images that could later be layered to create a multi-dimensional interactive map. They controlled the drone with Mission Planner, an open-source flight-tracking software.
Being able to fix the drone—having both the technical knowledge and materials to make it work—was key to keeping the project firmly rooted in the community. If the Wapichan want to keep the drone—named Kowadad, or Osprey—aloft, they need to be able to fix it with whatever materials they can find in South Rupununi, such as plastic crates and glue.
Aerial photo taken by the drone shows mining activity in Wapichan territory.
After two and a half days of work, the drone was complete. "This initiative is purely our initiative," community leader Nicholas Fredericks said. "Our people can actually see and understand for themselves what is really happening."
Fredericks, 39, was elected leader of South Rupununi's Shulinab village last year, but he'd served as a local representative in his region for years. His wife, Faye, 34, has also had an active role in organizing the Wapichan community.
The community's land rights struggle began in the 1950s, prior to Guyana's independence from Britain. In 1977, the titling of indigenous lands began. But local leaders' requests were denied; they were only granted 15% of what was rightfully theirs, they say, and have lost some of that to illegal logging. They're now fighting to reclaim some of the land that has been granted to extractive companies. Such deals, they say, reek of malfeasance. The Guyana Geology and Mines Commission has been accused of corruption, and Guyana as a whole is one of the most corrupt countries in South America.
"We are hoping to get them to recognize that these maps will actually help the government to resolve issues," said Wapichan leader Nicholas Fredericks.
"With the drones, we can go into really inaccessible areas," Fredericks told Quartz. Using its footage, the Wapichan are assembling a "living map" to document their customary land use—and to demonstrate to the government how outside interests were impinging upon lands the Wapichan have safeguarded for centuries.
Their drone confirmed what the Wapichan had long suspected: In the south, close to the border with Brazil, illegal loggers were harvesting trees in lands that were supposed to be protected. And the gold mine at Marudi Mountain, to the southeast of Shulinab, appeared to be leaching pollution into the headwaters upon which the Wapichan depend.
"We are hoping to get them to recognize that these maps will actually help the government to resolve issues," Fredericks said. "Without our lands, our futures are in jeopardy."
Lian Pin Koh, a pioneer in the field of drone-driven conservation, advised the team in Guyana. But the closest parallel to Guyanese project can be found halfway around the globe. Irendra Radjawali, who describes himself as a "researcher-activist," helped the Dayak community in Indonesia map their forests—and to take that evidence to the government, becoming the first community to win a land rights case based on drone imagery, Radjawali told Quartz.
For a few days last December, Nicholas and Faye Fredericks left the Guyanese forests for a different jungle. They traveled to Paris to accept the Equator Prize, an award given by the United Nations Development Programme to indigenous organizations seeking solutions to pressing climate change issues, on behalf of the South Central Peoples Development Association (SCPDA). Fredericks spoke for all Equator Award recipients in Paris.
"Our traditional practices are sustainable. We now need governments to recognize this, too," he said, his quiet voice booming through the auditorium. The winners onstage, he pointed out, conserve a total of 7.5 million hectares of forest.
Nick Fredericks accepts the Equator Prize in Paris on behalf of all indigenous innovation contestants.

"We are the guardians of the forest," Fredericks said. "We will not stand for [its] destruction in the name of development."
International organizations like UNDP have also honored the Wapichan work, but the Frederickses have had trouble getting the Guyanese government's attention.
Last fall, the Frederickses wrote letters to the Ministry of the Environment, and the pair hoped to meet with the Guyanese delegation at COP21. But they were unable to track the environmental delegation down back in December.
However, the Frederickses are still optimistic about the new government. When opposition leader David Granger was elected last year, he installed a new cabinet, including several key ministers. The Frederickses hope to meet with some of these officials this month in Georgetown, Guyana's capital.
That meeting has become even more urgent. Just before they traveled to Paris, the Frederickses learned that the government may be interested in opening another mining community around Blue Mountain, a site sacred to the Wapichan. "In pristine forest," Faye Fredericks said, shaking her head in disbelief. "We are very, very concerned."

As a business owner involved with the day-in and day-out of running your business, it's easy to forget that customers face many choices when it comes to shopping within their limited budgets. In order to better communicate with customers to nudge them to shop with you, you've got to put yourself in their shoes. Laraine Rodgers, President of The LR Group (www.TheLRGroup.net) calls this being "customer focused." Once you focus on your customers, you'll realize that they do in fact face many choices, including shopping with your competition. You've got to set yourself apart from the competition, and that includes taking steps to get to know exactly who and what your competitors are.
2) Read your competitors' brochures, web sites and sales letters. What benefits are they offering? Who have their past clients been, and what do their testimonials say about your competitors? Do you offer your potential customers the same benefits? Or do you offer other, more desirable benefits?
3) What are your competitors' methods of delivery and channels of distribution? For example, coaching services can be offered one-on-one, or via telephone, audiotapes, teleclasses or even via books. Are your competitors delivering products or services in a more convenient method than you? Can you offer the same or better service?
4) Shop with your competitors. How do their products or services offerings differ from yours? Are their prices much higher or lower? Does their location or web site get a lot of traffic (check www.alexa.com for web site traffic statistics)? Are the owners or sales representatives friendly and easy to contact by phone? Do they respond to e-mails promptly? Really get a feel for how your competitors do business, and you'll begin to understand how you can set yourself apart.
offered by the U.S. Postal Service (www.usps.com) and ModernPostcards.Com, can take the place of marketing services previously provided by virtual assistants, desktop publishers and printers. Are emerging technologies cutting into your market?
Once you really understand the competition, you'll understand what you need to offer to compel customers and potential customers to buy your products and services. You'll also be less likely to take your customers for granted. Create a two-way dialogue with your customers and potential customers so that you have the opportunity to communicate the true benefits they'll receive from doing business with you.

The Cornell Daily Sun (https://cornellsun.com/2006/02/02/m-hockey-looks-to-add-to-colgates-road-woes/)
M. Hockey Looks to Add to Colgate's Road Woes
Because Ithaca and Hamilton, N.Y., Colgate's home, are only about 72 miles apart, these two central New York rivals are ECACHL travel partners, meaning whenever one team makes a road trip, the other makes the same trek. Yet one weekend during the year, the local rivals play their partner in a home-and-home series. For the Raiders and the Red, this is their weekend.
While the outcome of this weekend's games between the No. 5 men's hockey team and No. 17 Colgate could hinge on a hot goaltender, a blocked shot, or a power-play goal, there may be a much simpler predictor of the games' results – location.
This season, Colgate has produced a 15-6-5 overall record, including an 11-2-1 league mark, which is good enough for first place in the ECACHL and a three-point lead over the second-place Red. While these numbers look solid on the surface, the Raiders have shown vulnerability this season – but only when they stray away from their home at Starr Rink.
Colgate has lost just one contest at home, a non-conference thriller against No. 19 St. Cloud State. But on the road, the team has lost five games by a combined score of 25-10. That boils down to five goals per game for a team that has allowed just 2.54 goals per contest this season. Included in those losses are a 7-1 thrashing at the hands of No. 9 Providence and a 4-0 blanking by unranked Bowling Green.
Yet, according to senior captain Matt Moulson, he expects the Raiders to give the Red a tough battle regardless of the site, simply because of their intense nature of play.
"They are a tough team to get chances on," he said. "So in both games it's going to be a fight for every single inch and every single goal."
Meanwhile, Cornell has been more of a Jekyll and Hyde team away from Lynah, which was no more evident than its last road weekend, when the team demolished Quinnipiac, 6-0, but fell to Princeton, 3-0. Thus far, the team has a 4-2-0 road record, but the losses, against the Tigers and a 6-1 thumping by Dartmouth, have been the worst failures for the Red this season.
Despite Colgate's difficulties on the road, the Raiders have been almost unstoppable at home and the Red knows that getting a win at Starr Rink on Saturday night will not come easy.
"They play us real hard, especially in their building," Moulson said. "It's pretty wild in there.

Is there a key to "infinite variety"? The challenge of Cleopatra is to convey the sheer fullness of the role, the sense that it defines, and is defined by only itself: there's no saying that the glorious tragedy of the closing plays itself out, of...
Cavalleria Rusticana/Pagliacci, Royal Opera review - one tenor, two samey brutes
Are "Cav and Pag" inseparable? Clearly not, to judge from Opera North's "Little Greats" and elsewhere, but it's still the pairing of choice. Tricky, because as music-theatre, Leoncavallo's drama of rough life entwined with rough art stands high...

"Originality is met by craft."
The award-winning stories in Dima Alzayat's collection are luminous and tender, whether dealing with a woman performing burial rites for her brother in "Ghusl," or a great-aunt struggling to explain cultural identity to her niece in "Once We Were Syrians."
Alzayat's stories are rich and relatable, chronicling a sense of displacement through everyday scenarios. There is the intern in pre-#MeToo Hollywood of "Only Those Who Struggle Succeed," the New York City children on the lookout for a place to play on the heels of Etan Patz's kidnapping in "Disappearance," and the "dangerous" women of "Daughters of Manāt" who struggle to assert their independence.
The title story, "Alligator," is a masterpiece of historical reconstruction and intergenerational trauma, told in an epistolary format through social media posts, newspaper clippings, and testimonials, that starts with the true story of the lynching of a Syrian immigrant couple by law officers in small-town Florida. Placed in a wider context of U.S. racial violence, the extrajudicial deaths, and what happens to the couple's children and their children's children in the years after, challenges the demands of American assimilation and its limits.

Ant is back in Chicago for a funeral, and he typically enjoys funerals. Since most of his family has passed away, he finds himself strangely attracted to their endearing qualities: the hyperbolic language, the stoner altar boy, seeing friends in suits for the first time. That is, until the tragic death of Ray—Ant's childhood friend, Vince's teenage cousin. Ray was the younger third-wheel that Ant and Victor were stuck babysitting while in high school, and his sudden death makes national news.
In the depths of a brutal Midwest winter, Ant rides with Vince through the falling snow to Ray's funeral, an event that has been accruing a sense of consequence. With a poet's sensibility, Shah navigates the murky responsibilities of adulthood, grief, toxic masculinity, and the tragedy of revenge in this haunting Midwestern noir.

Virtuoso (Ebook)
Ebook (.epub) - $ 9.99 Ebook (.mobi for Kindle) - $ 9.99
"A hint of Lynch, a touch of Ferrante, the cruel absurdity of Antonin Artaud, the fierce candour of Anaïs Nin, the stylish languor of a Lana del Rey song."
As Communism begins to crumble in Prague in the 1980s, Jana's unremarkable life becomes all at once remarkable when a precocious young girl named Zorka moves into the apartment building with her mother and sick father. With Zorka's signature two-finger salute and abrasive wit, she brings flair to the girls' days despite her mother's protestations to not "be weird." But after scorching her mother's prized fur coat and stealing from a nefarious teacher, Zorka suddenly disappears.
Meanwhile in Paris, Aimée de Saint-Pé married young to an older woman, Dominique, an actress whose star has crested and is in decline. A quixotic journey of self-discovery, Virtuoso follows Zorka as she comes of age in Prague, Wisconsin, and then Boston, amidst a backdrop of clothing logos, MTV, computer coders, and other outcast youth. But it isn't till a Parisian conference hall brimming with orthopedic mattresses and therapeutic appendages when Jana first encounters Aimée, their fates steering them both to a cryptic bar on the Rue de Prague, and, perhaps, to Zorka.
QUICK VIEW The Book of X (Ebook) a novel by
Sarah Rose Etter
A Best Book of 2019
"Etter brilliantly, viciously lays bare what it means to be a woman in the world, what it means to hurt, to need, to want, so much it consumes everything."
A surreal exploration of one woman's life and death against a landscape of meat, office desks, and bad men.
The Book of X (Ebook)
"I loved every page of this gorgeous, grotesque, heartbreaking novel."
—Carmen Maria Machado, author of Her Body and Other Parties
"Insightful and incisive, this book cuts deep into the failing heart of the feminine mystique. Etter is a surgeon."
—Amelia Gray, author of Isadora and Gutshot
The Book of X tells the tale of Cassie, a girl born with her stomach twisted in the shape of a knot. From childhood with her parents on the family meat farm, to a desk job in the city, to finally experiencing love, she grapples with her body, men, and society, all the while imagining a softer world than the one she is in. Twining the drama of the everyday—school-age crushes, paying bills, the sickness of parents—with the surreal—rivers of thighs, men for sale and fields of throats—Cassie's realities alternate to create a blurred, fantastic world of haunting beauty.
QUICK VIEW Triangulum (Ebook) a novel by
Masande Ntshanga
Betty Trask Award Winner
"Magnificently disorienting and meticulously constructed, Triangulum couples an urgent subtext with an unceasing sense of mystery. This is a thought-provoking dream of a novel."
—Tobias Carroll, Tor.com
Triangulum is an ambitious, often philosophical and genre-bending novel that covers a period of over 40 years in South Africa's recent past and near future.
Triangulum (Ebook)
Triangulum is an ambitious, often philosophical and genre-bending novel that covers a period of over 40 years in South Africa's recent past and near future — starting from the collapse of the apartheid homeland system in the early 1990s, to the economic corrosion of the 2010s, and on to the looming, large-scale ecological disasters of the 2040s.
In 2040, the South African National Space Agency receives a mysterious package containing a memoir and a set of digital recordings from an unnamed woman who claims the world will end in ten years. Assigned to the case, Dr. Naomi Buthelezi, a retired professor and science-fiction writer, is hired to investigate the veracity of the materials, and whether or not the woman's claim to have heard from a "force more powerful than humankind" is genuine.
Thus begins TRIANGULUM, a found manuscript composed of the mysterious woman's memoir and her recordings. Haunted by visions of a mysterious machine, the narrator is a seemingly adrift 17-year-old girl, whose sick father never recovered from the shock of losing his wife. She struggles to navigate school, sexual experimentation, and friendship across racial barriers in post-Apartheid South Africa.
When three girls go missing from their town, on her mother's birthday, the narrator is convinced that it has something to do with "the machine" and how her mother also went missing in the '90s. Along with her friends, Litha and Part, she discovers a puzzling book on UFOs at the library, the references and similarities in which lead the friends to believe that the text holds clues to the narrators's mother's abduction. Drawing upon suggestions in the text, she and her friends set out on an epic journey that takes them from their small town to an underground lab, a criminal network, and finally, a mysterious, dense forest, in search of clues as to what happened to the narrator's mother.
With extraordinary aplomb and breathtaking prose, Ntshanga has crafted an inventive and marvelous artistic accomplishment.
QUICK VIEW The Word for Woman Is Wilderness (Ebook) a novel by
Abi Andrews
"Beguiling, audacious... displays wide reading, clever writing and amusing dialogue."
This is a new kind of nature writing—one that crosses fiction with science writing and puts gender politics at the center of the landscape.
The Word for Woman Is Wilderness (Ebook)
"Beguiling, audacious... rises to its own challenges in engaging intellectually as well as wholeheartedly with its questions about gender, genre and the concept of wilderness. The novel displays wide reading, clever writing and amusing dialogue."
This is a new kind of nature writing — one that crosses fiction with science writing and puts gender politics at the center of the landscape.
Erin, a 19-year-old girl from middle England, is travelling to Alaska on a journey that takes her through Iceland, Greenland, and across Canada. She is making a documentary about how men are allowed to express this kind of individualism and personal freedom more than women are, based on masculinist ideas of survivalism and the shunning of society: the "Mountain Man." She plans to culminate her journey with an experiment: living in a cabin in the Alaskan wilderness, a la Thoreau, to explore it from a feminist perspective.
The book is a fictional time-capsule curated by Erin from this time comprising of personal narrative, fact, anecdote, images and maps, on subjects as diverse as The Golden Records, Voyager 1, the moon landings, the appropriation of native land and culture, Rachel Carson, The Order of The Dolphin, The Doomsday Clock, Ted Kaczynski, Valentina Tereshkova, Jack London, Thoreau, Darwin, Nuclear war, The Letters of Last Resort and the pill, amongst many other topics.

Ebook (.epub) - $ 7.99 Ebook (.mobi for Kindle) - $ 7.99 Ebook + Seeing People Off (Ebook) - $ 12.99
"Beňova's novel riffs on stories old and new, and the means by which we tell and experience them, to bring the reader inside her protagonist's mind."
—Vol. 1 Brooklyn
Sometimes running away is the bravest option. Or, so believes Rosa, who ditches her husband and home and takes off on the road. Along the way, she encounters the owner of a puppet theater who's on a mission to conquer the world with his performance of The Snow Queen.
Which character from this old fairy tale will Rosa identify with? With Gerda, searching fruitlessly for her lost love? With Kai, who flees home and his beloved one day without a word? Or with the Snow Queen, who seems to stand aloof above it all?
With magnetic, sparkling prose, Beňová delivers a lively mosaic that ruminates on human relationships, our greatest fears and desires.
QUICK VIEW The Deeper the Water the Uglier the Fish (Ebook) a novel by
Katya Apekina
2018 L.A. Times Book Prize
"It's a stunningly accomplished book, and Apekina isn't afraid to grab her readers by the hand and take them to some very dark and very beautiful places."
With a sinister sense of humor, powerfully captures the quiet torment of two sisters craving the attention of a parent they can't, and shouldn't, have to themselves.
The Deeper the Water the Uglier the Fish (Ebook)
*A Best Book of 2018 —Kirkus Reviews, BuzzFeed News, Entropy, LitReactor
It's 16-year-old Edie who finds their mother Marianne dangling in the living room from an old jump rope, puddle of urine on the floor, barely alive. Upstairs, 14-year-old Mae had fallen into one of her trances, often a result of feeling too closely attuned to her mother's dark moods. After Marianne is unwillingly admitted to a mental hospital, Edie and Mae are forced to move from their childhood home in Louisiana to New York to live with their estranged father, Dennis, a former civil rights activist and literary figure on the other side of success.
The girls, grieving and homesick, are at first wary of their father's affection, but soon Mae and Edie's close relationship begins to fall apart—Edie remains fiercely loyal to Marianne, convinced that Dennis is responsible for her mother's downfall, while Mae, suffocated by her striking resemblances to her mother, feels pulled toward their father. The girls move in increasingly opposing and destructive directions as they struggle to cope with outsized pain, and as the history of Dennis and Marianne's romantic past clicks into focus, the family fractures further.
Moving through a selection of first-person accounts and written with a sinister sense of humor, The Deeper the Water the Uglier the Fish powerfully captures the quiet torment of two sisters craving the attention of a parent they can't, and shouldn't, have to themselves. In this captivating debut, Katya Apekina disquietingly crooks the lines between fact and fantasy, between escape and freedom, and between love and obsession.
QUICK VIEW The Blurry Years (Ebook) a novel by
Eleanor Kriseman
"Assured and affecting... Kriseman's is a new voice to celebrate."
A powerful and unorthodox coming-of-age story from an assured new literary voice, featuring a stirringly twisted mother-daughter relationship, set against the sleazy, vividly-drawn backdrop of late-seventies and early-eighties Florida.
The Blurry Years (Ebook)
*Best Books of 2018 —Entropy
The Blurry Years is a powerful and unorthodox coming-of-age story from an assured new literary voice, featuring a stirringly twisted mother-daughter relationship, set against the sleazy, vividly-drawn backdrop of late-seventies and early-eighties Florida.
Callie—who ages from six to eighteen over the course of the book—leads a scattered childhood, moving from cars to strangers' houses to the sand-dusted apartments of the tourist towns that litter the Florida coastline.
Callie's is a story about what it's like to grow up too fast and absorb too much, to watch adults behaving badly; what it's like to be simultaneously in thrall to and terrified of the mother who is the only family you've ever known, who moves you from town to town to leave her own mistakes behind.
With precision and poetry, Kriseman's moving tale of a young girl struggling to find her way in the world is potent, and, ultimately, triumphant.
QUICK VIEW The Underneath (Ebook) a novel by
Melanie Finn
"Finn is a remarkably confident and supple storyteller."
With the assurance and grace of her acclaimed novel The Gloaming—which earned her comparisons to Patricia Highsmith—Melanie Finn returns with a precisely layered and tense new literary thriller that travels from the Northeast Kingdom to remote Africa.
The Underneath (Ebook)
With the assurance and grace of her acclaimed novel The Gloaming—which earned her comparisons to Patricia Highsmith—Melanie Finn returns with a precisely layered and tense new literary thriller.
The Underneath follows Kay Ward, a former journalist struggling with the constraints of motherhood. Along with her husband and two children, she rents a quaint Vermont farmhouse for the summer. The idea is to disconnect from their work-based lifestyle—that had her doggedly pursuing a genocidal leader of child soldiers known as General Christmas, even through Kay's pregnancy and the birth of their second child—in an effort to repair their shaky marriage.
It isn't long before Kay's husband is called away and she discovers a mysterious crawlspace in the rental with unsettling writing etched into the wall. Alongside some of the house's other curiosities and local sleuthing, Kay is led to believe that something terrible may have happened to the home's owners.
Kay's investigation leads her to a local logger, Ben Comeau, a man beset with his own complicated and violent past. A product of the foster system and life-long resident of the Northeast Kingdom, Ben struggles to overcome his situation, and to help an abused child whose addict mother is too incapacitated to care about the boy's plight.
The Underneath is an intelligent and considerate exploration of violence—both personal and social—and whether violence may ever be justified.

Here's a quick summary of the top stories on charismanews.com:
Alec Baldwin Reveals He Is Seeking Religious, Spiritual Guidance
In a lengthy video posted on New Year's Day, actor Alec Baldwin opened up about his accidental killing of "Rust" cinematographer Halyna Hutchins and revealed he has been seeking spiritual and religious guidance.
The 63-year-old celebrity thanked those who have been "kind and thoughtful and generous in spirit" in the wake of the fatal shooting, calling their support "just incredible."
"It's New Year's Day, and I'm hopeful that this year will be better than last year," Baldwin said. "I can't imagine it being as bad or worse than last year. Although, I look at last year and my daughter, Lucia, was born in February. So last year was a great year in spite of the problems we are facing."
Vaccine Battle: Top Tennis Star Denied Entry to Australia, Has Visa Revoked
Novak Djokovic's chance to play for a 10th Australian Open title was thrown into limbo Thursday when the country denied him entry and canceled his visa because he failed to meet the requirements for an exemption to COVID-19 vaccination rules.
The top-ranked Djokovic announced on social media Tuesday that he had "exemption permission" and he landed in Australia late Wednesday with a medical exemption from the Victoria state government that was expected to shield him from the strict vaccination regulations in place for this year's first major tennis tournament.
But national border authorities didn't accept the exemption, with the Australian Border Force issuing a statement saying Djokovic failed to meet entry requirements.
Shawn Bolz: Will Certain Music, Movies or TV Shows Damage Your Relationship With Jesus?
A great deal of debate has arisen over the years about certain movies, music and television shows, and whether Christians should absorb or stay away from them.
Evangelist Shawn Bolz doesn't advocate one position or the other. However, he does have some advice for those who have questions as to whether or not they are damaging their relationship with Christ by watching or listening to these "secular" forms of arts and entertainment.
He and Bob Schuller discussed the topic on a recent episode of Schuller's "Praise" on TBN.
