#LoveOzYA #AWW2020 Book Review: "It Sounded Better In My Head" by Nina Kenwood
Title: It Sounded Better In My Head
Author: Nina Kenwood
Target audience: YA
Date Read: 04/01/20 – 07/04/20
Rating: ★★★☆
This book was certainly sweet and I loved how painfully realistic it was at times. But some pacing issues and the lack of characterisation from anyone other than the main character left me feeling like there could have been more.
Natalie's life is diverging from the Plan. Her parents announce their separation on Christmas Day, her two best friends have started dating so she feels like a third wheel, and she's just finished high-school and doesn't know what she wants to do with the rest of her life. She's also still dealing with image issues that have haunted her throughout her teen years thanks to PCOS (polycystic ovary syndrome).
Since this book is in the first person, we are very much in Natalie's head. And she has a lot going on in there. But it did mean I felt like I didn't really get to know the other characters. There were flashes of personality from them, such as Lucy covering awkwardness amongst her friends with OTT bubbliness, Mariella with her love of gossip about her children… but Alex is the love interest and Natalie spends so much of her time thinking about him and yet as I write this, there's very little I could tell you about Alex as a person.
There's also the fact that sometimes the pacing was strange. The plot would grind to a half for several pages while we got some of Natalie's backstory. Sure, it was good to know about her and some of it moved the plot (such as learning how she met Zach and Lucy) but a lot of the time it made me forget what had just been happening.
Apart from that, though, the writing is really engaging. I flew through the pages. The messiness of teenage friendships is so realistic, I could feel my guts churning on behalf of the characters. There were times when Natalie's body image issues and insecurities felt a little repetitive, but at the same time, I recognise the cyclical nature of such thoughts in real life.
On the other hand, I really liked how sex positive the book was, particularly in regards to its female characters. It's mentioned that Natalie knows how to give herself an orgasm, and Lucy is the first one of their friendship group to have sex. While it's a shock to the others, it's still shown in a positive light.
This is Nina Kenwood's debut and I will definitely be watching out for more of her work.

#AWW2019 // Book Review: "Beneath the Surface" by Rebecca Langham
Title: Beneath the Surface (Outsiders Project #1)
Author: Rebecca Langham
Genre: Sci-fi
Target audience: Adult
Dates read: 24/12/2019 – 30/12/2019
This is kind of a slow book, but I don't mean that in a bad way. It has a lot going on in terms of themes, characters and plot, and explores a lot of it really well. Unfortunately I didn't engage quite enough with it to bump my rating any higher.
Lydia is a politician's daughter and has grown up believing that segregation of the alien race they call Outsiders is only natural. But when she takes a teaching contract at the Outside colony, she realises all is not as it seems. And there's one particular Outsider, Alessia, to whom she feels particularly drawn…
Often I find that I am interested in the development of a relationship up until the point where the characters get together, at which point it gets boring. I actually found the opposite with Lydia and Alessia. I didn't actually feel there was much build-up or reason for them to feel so strongly about each other, but I loved reading about them together! Once that happened, I really felt the depth of feeling between them.
I mentioned before that there a lot of themes, and a lot of them are talked about. Literally, the characters have a lot of conversations. There is a lot of talking. I'm sure many readers might find this irritating, and it is slow-moving for that reason. There are some dramatic scenes, but I wouldn't say there's any action to speak of.
Still, I was interested enough in the world-building and characters to continue reading. There are some pretty big reveals dropped towards the end that pave the way nicely for the conclusion of the story in the second book, and I defintiely want to see the fallout from the events in this one.

#AWW2019 "Australia is alive with the long history of the Indigenous people, our culture and our presence." // Book Review: "Welcome to Country" by Marcia Langton
Title: Welcome to Country:
Author: Professor Marcia Langton
Genre: Non-fiction/travel guide
Rating: (chosen to give rating)
This book made me want to go travelling! Welcome To Country is an Australian travel-guide with a focus on the cultural heritage of Indigenous Australians.
It opens with chapters about Indigenous history and culture, and how colonisation caused so much dispossession, loss of culture, and outright genocide.
There are also sections on Indigneous notions of kinship and ceremony, and other cultural aspects. As the book is written as a travel guide, none of this goes into huge amounts of depth, but it is enough for a primer, which is what the average reader is likely to be looking for.
After this, the book is divided into chapters on each state and territory, and these are further divided into sections on festivals, sporting events, places, galleries, music and other tourist attractions run by Indigenous Australians.
I will admit that I didn't read this section in the greatest of detail, and mostly skimmed over information related to travelling to each place (the font changed and was a lot smaller for this information, and once I started skimming that, I found the whole reading experience a lot better). But I did pay attention to the names of places and tours, and I wanted to visit so many and give them my support. The Northern Territory and Western Australia are the two longest chapters and the ACT and Torres Strait Islands chapters are the smallest, but they all contain valuable information.
This is such a fantastic resource that should have existed long before 2018! I'll definitely be consulting it again when I am planning to travel this great land.
Emily's Top 12 Books of 2019
This year I hit on a better way to do my top books of the year post. In past years, I've always looked at my GoodReads yearly challenge page in December and tried to narrow down a top ten for the year. Often the books at the end of the year were fresh in my mind but memories of the ones from earlier were starting to fade. It always felt weird having mostly books from the last few months in such a wrap-up post.
That's why during 2019, I've kept a list of my favourite book each month as the year went along, so I can safely say these were my favourite books of the year, even if I sometimes can't remember why. (Except for really mind-blowing favourites, the details tend to fade for me).
So without further ado, here are Emily's Top 12 Books of 2019:
Strange the Dreamer by Laini Taylor. The prose in this book is spectacular all the way through, but nothing beats the chapters where Lazlo and Sarai fell in love over the course of a shared dream. *swoon*
Famous Last Words by Katie Alender. This was such a fun, ghostly book! It reminded me that I enjoy ghost stories (as long as they're not too scary). It was also a fun thriller, which is what I needed after all the SFF.
A Thousand Pieces of You by Claudia Gray. Mostly, I loved this book because of its forbidden romance element in the Russia-verse, but the whole book was so entertaining! And the audio book is so well performed by Tavia Gilbert.
I have to say it's a tie between Ten Thousand Skies Above You and A Million Worlds With You by Claudia Gray because I couldn't get enough of this series, even when it was a bit predictable. Honourable mention to Romanov by Nadine Brandes because even though I didn't love it as much as I'd hoped, it made me think a lot about the real Romanovs and got under my skin.
The Red Labyrinth by Meredith Tate. This was a fun, twisty dystopian, with an ending that left me wanting more. I'm not sure if there will actually be a second book but I sure hope so, because that ending was quite something!
The Diviners by Libba Bray. This had so many things I like – old-timey New York City (it's set during Prohibition), ghosts, serial killings and occult mischief. And it was just the right amount of scary. Not to mention January LaVoy does such a great job on the audio version, really bringing this whole world to life.
The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe by C. S. Lewis– maybe this is because of nostalgia? Even though I never read the books as a child, I did watch the BBC adaptation an awful lot. I really need to get back to my plan to read the rest of the Narnia books.
Women of Wasps and War by Madeleine D'Este. I read this nearly all in one sitting. It was so powerful and made me feel a lot of things. It explored societal privilege in detail and I particularly liked how D'Este examined the way you can love an individual and still recognise they are part of the oppressive system.
Gods of Jade and Shadow by Silvia Moreno-Garcia. I'd been looking forward to this book for a while by the time it was released. It took me a little while to get into it but I eventually realised that was because I was reading it in small doses. It needs your full and undivided attention. I loved learning about Mexican mythology, and the writing is poetry!
The Kingdom by Jess Rothenberg. Almost-human robots in a dystopian Disneyland. What's not to love? This was fast-paced and incredibly fun! I was worried I had hyped it up to myself too much, but it lived up to my expectations! Now I want a sequel where the robots stage a revolution!
Portable Curiosities by Julie Koh. I've become more interested in short story collections in the past few months and this was definitely a quirky, enjoyable one. Sometimes I had to think about the stories before I figured out what they were really saying, and there were a few that I didn't get at all, but the satire was really entertaining.
A Holiday by Gaslight by Mimi Mathews. I was in such a readinig slump and this delightful little Victorian romance was exactly what I needed to pull me out. It had everything I wanted in a romance and loved the characters.
You can see the full list of books I read this year at my GoodReads 2019 Challenge page.
Here's to more amazing books in 2020! Can't wait to hang out with you all some more!
Book Review: "A Holiday by Gaslight" by Mimi Matthews
December 21, 2019 December 19, 2019 2 Comments
Title: A Holiday By Gaslight
Author: Mimi Matthews
Intended audience: Adult
Date Read: 17/12/2019
Rating: ★★★★
I've got to be honest, I wasn't 100% this novella would be my cup of tea going in, but I'm so glad I picked it up because my holiday reading this season has been a mixed bag and this one finally pulled me out of the dumps.
Sophie Ampersett is used to making sacrifices for the happiness and security of her family, but she hopes that when she marries, it might be someone she at least likes.
Ned Sharpe, a wealthy tradesman, is smitten with Sophie the first time he lays eyes on her, but after following the advise in a gentleman's ettiquette guide, he doesn't seem to be getting anywhere, and Sophie is about to call the courtship off.
But Sophie decides their courtship is worth one last chance, so she invites Ned and his family to her family home in Derbyshire for Christmas, with the hope of finally finding love.
This was such a sweet book! In such a short book, it can be hard to really flesh out your characters, but Matthews has really done just that, not just for the two leads, but the supporting characters as well. There are so many different attitudes from the characters, which leads to misunderstandings and conflict. I loved it.
I loved Ned and Sophie, and how their relationship developed once they agreed to be candid with one another. I loved Ned's awkwardness. As a tradesman, he was trying so hard to fit in with the upper classes and floundering. Sophie was strong and independent without being anachronistic. I loved the stolen moments they shared in secret alcoves around the house. Secret kisses under mistletoe! Things never felt lusty or steamy; it suited the period and the tone of the writing perfectly.
I found myself getting frustrated and angry at Sophie's father, who has spent the entire family fortune, including his two daughters' dowries, on upgrades to their home, such as gaslight and eventually indoor plumbing.
There is a side plot with Ned's friend and business partner and Sophie's sister which felt less well-developed. I was taken a bit by surprise with that one, though its outcome did lead to more misunderstandings and moved the Sophie and Ned's story into its final stages.
I hadn't come across Mimi Matthews before, but I am definitely going to check out her other historical romances when I am in the mood for this kind of thing.
#AWW2019 "This is how I tell it, or else what's a story for?" // Review of "The Hate Race" by Maxine Beneba Clarke
December 2, 2019 November 30, 2019 2 Comments
Title: The Hate Race
Author: Maxine Beneba Clarke
Genre: Memoir
It's always hard to know exactly what to say in a review like this. I'm in a position of privilege as a white person, and this entire book is about Maxine's experiences of racism as a black woman in Australia.
The racism she describes is mostly not overt. She really highlights the way it insideously inserts itself into a POC's life – the little things like the tone of voice a fellow pre-schooler uses when she states "Your skin is brown" and how that statement of fact becomes a nasty comment just through the tone. Or how her first high-school boyfriend was happy to hang out with her in certain circumstances but didn't want to visit her home and disassocated from her when he was surrounded by his private school peers.
Maxine's experience as a poet definitely comes through in this book – there is a certain poetry throughout the prose; Maxine frames her story as something of a West Indian song or story her grandparents might have told. It's beautiful and striking, particularly in contrast to the content of some of the stories she is telling.
Definitely recommend this book for fans of memoir and who want to support the diversity of Australian writing. This is my first book from Maxine Beneba Clarke, but I'll definitely be following it up with some fiction books asap!
#AWW2019 // Book Review: "The Serpent and the Flower" by Madeleine D'Este
Title: The Serpent and the Flower
Author: Madeleine D'Este
Genre: Contemporary/horror
Confession: I don't really know Macbeth that well. I don't really like Shakespeare's tragedies. And that probably affected by enjoyment of this book. (Someone give me a romcom set around a production of Much Ado About Nothing, please!)
Well, then, Emily, if that's the case, why did you put your hand up for an ARC of a book about a group of teenagers staging Macbeth?
Well, because while I might have been more into musicals, I was the theatre nerd at school. And I'm honestly surprised haunted theatre stories aren't more of a thing – that was up my alley, too. I love theatre ghost lore. Also the cover is gorgeous.
Madeleine D'Este definitely does creepy well. There's a seance scene in her novella Evangeline and the Spiritualist that creeped me out completely and that was why that was my favourite of the Evangeline stories. And there are equivalent spooky scenes in this one, too. There are some scenes in this book where characters find themselves alone in the theatre or elsewhere in the school, hearing voices or having chairs pelted at their heads by invisible hands.
The characters certainly had their moments (one of my GoodReads updates was 'Whoa, Ravenswood, you need to calm down!" and another was "Actors like Violet make me glad I'm only ever in the chorus – no one's going to want to hurt me for my part"). But for the most part I never really felt like the characters leapt off the page… some of the other reviews have referred to parallels between these characters and those in Macbeth, and perhaps if I had been able to spot those parallels, there would have been some added depth to the characters that I was missing.
My reading experience mostly depends on how invested I am in the characters, but the writing and plotting are both very good, and I think the right reader will definitely enjoy this.
Thank you to the author for providing me with a free copy of this book in exchange for a review.
#AWW2019 Book Review: "Portable Curiosities" by Julie Koh
Title: Portable Curiosities
Author: Julie Koh
Audio book narrator: Lauren Hamilton Neill
Genre: Short stories/satire
What an interesting collection of stories! As I'm getting into writing more short stories myself, I am finding myself drawn more to reading them. This collection from Julie Koh is clever, eyebrow-raising and sometimes laugh-out-loud funny.
The stories examine being Asian in a white world, being female in a male world, diversity, capitalism and consumerism, social media influencers, and many other aspects of the modern world. They do so in an absurdist, satirical way.
There were some that I really enjoyed, such as The Magnificent Breasts, an indictment on the male objectification of women, and they way women are gaslit into staying in abusive relationships.
I will be honest that there were others where I got to the end and wasn't 100% sure what the story had been trying to say. But I really appreciated that these stories were speculative and funny as they satirised the world around us. I have found a lot of the short story genre tends to be very realistic, and lacking humour as it tries to be deep. Or maybe I'm just reading the wrong short stories? Either way, this was a nice break and I definitely intend to pick up Julie Koh's other collection not too far in the future.
Book Review: "A Christmas Wish and a Cranberry Kiss at the Cosy Kettle" by Liz Eeles
November 8, 2019 November 6, 2019 1 Comment
Title: A Christmas Wish and a Cranberry Kiss at the Cosy Kettle
Author: Liz Eeles
Rating: ★★☆
Ah man. I hate being that person. That is, the first person to give a negative review of a book. I just didn't love this one!
Look, I probably should have checked my review of A Summer Escape and Strawberry Cake at the Cosy Kettle, the second book in this series, before I requested this one. I thought I had given that one four stars, and that this one would be much the same. But actually, it was only a 3-star read for me, and I think I had a lot of the same issues with this one.
It started out well. I found Becca really relatable at first. But her inability to see that Logan was usiing her combined with letting the book club crew walk over her and insist on helping her ("they're being kind" she says as they push her into something she's not entirely comfortable with for the fifth time) just made her feel more like a doormat after a while.
Most of the side characters were pretty one dimensional. I ddi mention in my review of the previous book that I thought Stanley was a bit over the top, and that feeling continued in this one. He was pushy, and inserted himself into situations he had no real right to be in. While I understood Becca's anxieties about her twin sister and thought they were well-written, Jasmine herself was irritating. I guess she was supposed to be a little, though.
A lot of the complications in the second half of the book would be alleviated if the characters just talked to one another. I get that it's difficult to tell someone you have feelings for them, but a quck "Are you and my sister a couple?" would have helped.
And given that Logan was booking the Cosy Kettle for one night only, it seemed odd that Becca spent a good couple of weeks leading up to his party redecorating the cafe to his requirements.
I feel like such a Grinch giving a feel-good holiday romance a bad review, but I guess at the end of the day I just had too many niggles to really enjoy.
(Thank you to Bookouture for sending a free copy my way in exchange for an honest review)
#AWW2019 // Book Review: "The Antics of Evangeline" by Madeleine D'Este
Title: The Antics of Evangeline (Books 1-4)
Genre: Steampunk/Fantasy
Having read Madeleine D'Este's newest release, "Women of Wasps and War" earlier in the year, it was nice to know that she had some lighter reading in her back catalogue that I could continue on with.
The Antics of Evangeline is made up of four novellas, but I've chosen to review them all together. Evangeline is the daughter of esteemed engineer and inventor, Montague Calidcott, though she's only just discovered that fact. She's now living with him in Melbourne, and getting up to all kinds of mischief.
Evangeline is a fun lead character. She's clever but impulsive and doesn't quite know how to stay out of trouble. She's also an inspiring inventor, though her inventions don't always work as intended. The term "inventress" did grate on me a little – I am not sure if it is period-appropriate or just the author's stylistic decision but I didn't love it either way. Just use "inventor"!
I know the stories are short but I would have liked to hear more of Evangeline's backstory. There were definitely some revelations, but I feel like there's a lot more to know! The last installment was published in 2017; I'm not sure whether further stories were/are intended where we might get to learn more. Ditto her father's secret project that lurks beneath a sheet in his workshop and every now and then exhibits strange behaviour.
Evangeline is joined by a fun cast of characters, including her best friend Mei, who teaches her martial arts, her Uncle Edmond and his actor 'friend'/'companion' August, and Mrs Plockton, the God-fearing housekeeper. They all have very distinct personalities that sometimes clash.
Evangeline and the Spiritualist, episode 3, was definitely my favourite of the four. I actually included it among my Halloween reads as the seance scene was a bit unnerving.
While the books are primarily steampunk, there are small touches of fantasy, which I enjoyed. Things like the seance may be fake or might be supernatural, you're never quite sure, but the bunyip (book 2) is definitely a monster.
These four instalments are available individually or in a combined volume. I recommend picking these up for light-hearted steampunky goodness.
Individual book ratings:
Evangeline and the Alchemist – 4 stars
Evangeline and the Bunyip – 3 stars
Evangeline and the Spiritualist – 4 stars
Evangeline and the Mysterious Lights – 3 stars

@eleonara_nowhere is an on and offline performance created specially for an artist residency at Diffusion Festival 2017 as part of the festival.
As in the case of 'Born Nowhere', @eleonora_nowhere is informed by a dialogue with Facebook users, and the resulting performance is conducted through the social media platform, Instagram.
The idea was to create a character based on a "typical" Welsh woman. I started my research online and found that results predominantly featured a young woman dressed and styled conservatively, with long hair, natural makeup and plain clothing. My own personal observations of a "typical" Welsh woman, on the other hand, produced remarkably different results. While visiting Cardiff, I was struck by the vibrancy of self-expression of the young Welsh women I encountered, completely at odds with what I had found online. I was bowled over by the international nature of Cardiff, a multicultural urban environment. In the end, I discarded online results and the image I created was based only on my own local research.
I shared her image on Facebook, along with the question of who users thought she might be, and received the enthusiastic response that she was someone sweet and shy but also very strong with a mind of her own, daring and free spirited. She had, they wrote, always wanted to become a famous singer and thus prove to her family that she could achieve her ambition, despite all their criticism. Eleonora was her real name. Heulwen, meaning sunshine in Welsh, and Madam Me Mamnn were the two pseudonyms she went by as an artist.
With this information, Eleonora was created. I lived as Eleonora at the Diffusion Festival, posting regularly on Instagram under the username '@eleonora_nowhere'. Every previous comment posted on her image on Facebook informed Eleonora's next move. Each post was part of the performance itself, and the Instagram account now serves as the archival documentation of this performance.


My passenger side window vent isn't sealing tightly. The black screw/gromit that pulls it close is loose. Is it just a cap that pops off? Seems like it just needs to be tightened.
no one knows how to tighten this? any ideas on where to find a diagram?
Aedgington, after looking at mine, there should be a Philips screw drawing the window onto the mount/operator. It's tight against the window on mine, but I would not give it death, as this could break the glass. You probably should use some removable Loctite 242 to prevent this form reoccurring.
how did you access the screw? from the inside or outside? i can't seem to get the inner moldig off of the assembly nor can i pop off the black cap on the outside of the glass.
I didn't have to do mine; I just looked at it to help you out. The black button is not a button, but the back of the bolt going through the glass with a rubber grommet. Open the window and try accessing it form the inside. If you cannot get to it from inside, then use a #2 Philips apex bit with a ratcheting screwdriver. Snap-on model R810SA works well. Sorry I didn't look any further.
Got, thanks for the help. had to put my apex bit in a speed wrench to get it done, very small space on a 90* angle.
Did you use any loctite?

History, Language & Culture South Sudan
歴史、言語と文化 South Sudan
South Sudan was settled by many of its current ethnic groups during the 15th–19th centuries. After the Sudan region was invaded in 1820 by Muhammad Ali, viceroy of Egypt under the Ottoman Empire, the southern Sudan was plundered for slaves. By the end of the 19th century the Sudan was under British-Egyptian rule. Although the north accepted British rule relatively quickly, there was greater resistance in the south. Because of this, British energies in the north were free to be directed toward modernization efforts, whereas in the south they were more focused on simply maintaining order, leading to a dichotomy of development between north and south that continued for several decades. After Sudan became independent in 1956, numerous governments over the years found it difficult to win general acceptance from the country's diverse political constituencies, especially in the south. An early conflict arose between those northern leaders who hoped to impose the vigorous extension of Islamic law and culture to all parts of the country and those who opposed this policy. The latter group included the majority of southern Sudan's population, many of whom were already up in arms over fears that the south would be further marginalized by the northern-based government; those fears led to a lengthy civil war (1955–72). The Addis Ababa Agreement of 1972 ended the conflict only temporarily, and in the next decade widespread fighting resumed with the second civil war (1983–2005). Numerous discussions, cease-fires, and agreements between southern leaders and their northern counterparts occurred but yielded very little success until the 2005 Comprehensive Peace Agreement (CPA), which ended warfare and generated an outline of new measures to share power, distribute wealth, and provide security in Sudan. Significantly, it also granted southern Sudan semiautonomous status and stipulated that a referendum on independence for the region would be held in six years. Despite some obstacles, the eagerly awaited referendum did take place: a weeklong vote on independence for southern Sudan was held January 9–15, 2011, with the results indicating the south's overwhelming preference to secede. The country of South Sudan declared independence on July 9, 2011.
South Sudan is a multilingual country, with over 60 indigenous languages spoken. The official language of the country is English which was introduced in the region during the colonial era (see Anglo-Egyptian Sudan). Some of the indigenous languages with the most speakers include Dinka, Nuer, Bari, and Zande. Both English and Juba Arabic, an Arabic pidgin used by several thousand people especially in the capital city of Juba

On Earth We're Briefly Gorgeous
Penguin Press
Hottest Books of the Season
LGBTQ Stories
Poet Ocean Vuong's debut novel is a letter from a son to a mother who cannot read. Written when the speaker, Little Dog, is in his late twenties, the letter unearths a family's history that began before he was born—a history whose epicenter is rooted in Vietnam—and serves as a doorway into parts of his life his mother has never known.
Rave Viet Thanh Nguyen,
The poems from his book Night Sky With Exit Wounds expose raw hurt, love and joy, and in performing them, he demonstrated the confidence required to reveal himself. Vuong does the same in his compelling, emotional first novel ... Vuong as a writer is daring. He goes where the hurt is, creating a novel saturated with yearning and ache. Little Dog is turned inside out by his search for validation, and Vuong imbues his quest with meaning that extends beyond the personal ... Vuong refuses to be embarrassed. He transforms the emotional, the visceral, the individual into the political in an unforgettable–indeed, gorgeous–novel, a book that seeks to affect its readers as profoundly as Little Dog is affected, not only by his lover but also by the person who brought him into the world[.]
Rave Ron Charles,
May 31 marks the 200th anniversary of Walt Whitman's birth, and the best present we could possibly receive is Ocean Vuong's debut novel ... with his radical approach to form and his daring mix of personal reflection, historical recollection and sexual exploration, Vuong is surely a literary descendant of the author of Leaves of Grass. Emerging from the most marginalized circumstances, he has produced a lyrical work of self-discovery that's shockingly intimate and insistently universal ... this narrative flows—rushing from one anecdote to another, swirling past and present, constantly swelling with poignancy ... At times, the tension between Little Dog's passion and his concern seems to explode the very structure of traditional narrative, and the pages break apart into the lines of an evocative prose poem—not so much briefly gorgeous as permanently stunning ... Kindness and wisdom, always flickering through these pages, begin to accrue more thickly. The healing that finally arrives is fraught with pain and paradox, but no less welcome and remarkable.
Rave Jia Tolentino,
Vuong uses language to conjure wholeness from a situation that language has already broken, and will continue to break; loss and survival are always twinned ... The structural hallmarks of Vuong's poetry—his skill with elision, juxtaposition, and sequencing—shape the novel ... Success as a writer is the mostly unspoken end point of Little Dog's story: readers who know Vuong's biography will assume it, and those who don't will infer it from the strength of the book's language ... Reading On Earth We're Briefly Gorgeous can feel like watching an act of endurance art, or a slow, strange piece of magic in which bones become sonatas, to borrow one of Vuong's metaphors ... Like the Beijing-born novelist Yiyun Li, Vuong has a fondness for the sort of wordplay that involves noticing odd accidents in the language that he had to consciously learn ... Lines like these risk preciousness, but Vuong's earnestness is overpowering ... In the context of those conferences, Vuong's story seems extraordinary. But, while Vuong himself is exceptional, much of his experience is not unusual.

New Zealand Website Insults Indian Skipper Virat Kohli
The players from New Zealand are renowned for their sportsmanship and gentle nature. Players from New Zealand are commonly quoted for their on-field gesture. The AccNZ, a sports entertainment website of New Zealand, has uploaded a photo, which has enraged all Indian cricket lovers.
On its Instagram feed, the AccNZ released a photo in which a woman has put a strap around a man's neck. The woman in this photo is identified as Kiwi bowler Kyle Jamieson, while the Virat Kohli is written in front of the man. This photo resembles a dirty prank in which Virat Kohli gets mocked for the WTC Final loss.
In both innings, Jamieson jolted Virat's wicket. Jamieson had Virat out LBW in the first innings and then he had him caught behind the wicket in the second innings. Team India was overshadowed by Jamieson's excellent bowling and New Zealand was crowned Test World Champions.
Kyle Jamieson was named Man of the Match in appreciation of his great performance. In the first innings, this all-rounder took five crucial wickets, and in the second innings, he took two wickets. Virat Kohli was also impressed by Jamieson's performance. He also congratulated New Zealand on their World Test Championship victory.
However, the actions of the New Zealand website The AccNZ are completely unacceptable. The AccNZ website provides cricket and other sports commentary. It is also verified on Instagram with over 45 thousand followers.

I love Fuzzy-Felt, as I remember one birthday getting about three sets of it from various friends. It was great fun moving the cut out animals and characters on the boards, and now it is back with Fuzzy-Felt cards.
Fuzzy-Felt was apparently first developed during World War II, when a group of homeworkers used to give the felt off-cuts from material being used to line gas masks to their children to keep them entertained. The best selling toy was originally launched way back in 1950, but I remember it as a 70s child. The cards produced by the Monster Factory have all the fun of the original sets, as you can re-arrange the pictures on the front to create a personalised look. The Christmas cards feature nativity, snowmen, presents and angels – and if you get bored on Christmas day you can amuse yourself by playing with them.
They cost £2.99 per card and are available at Paperchase, John Lewis and Selfridges.

Keke Wyatt's Salary and Net Worth
Lorna Wyatt and Keever Wyatt II gave birth to Keke Wyatt on March 10, 1982, in Indianapolis, Indiana, USA. She had the instincts and talent to be a singer because she was born into a musical family. Her family was made up of seven people, including her four brothers. She was born into a white and black mixed family and was thus raised in a predominantly African-American environment.
Keke began singing at the age of two and performed her first live show at the age of five. She went to high school in Indianapolis and joined the wrestling team, but she soon discovered her passion for music and was inspired by R&B artists such as Dony Hathaway, among others. Keke quickly began to perform in various girl bands. She was always mature for her age.
Keke Wyatt, who was born on March 10, 1982, will be 40 years old on September 20, 2022. Her height is 5ft 7in and she weighs 69kg.
Wyatt is a television personality and an American R&B singer. She began demonstrating her musical talent at the age of two, having been born into a musical family. She had her first life when she was five years old. However, it was during her adolescence that she discovered her true musical talent and began to play in girl bands while also writing songs. But her life took a dramatic turn after a successful collaboration with R&B singer Avant in 2004, which catapulted her into the spotlight and catapulted her to fame.
Her rendition of "Nothing in This World" earned her a nomination for Best New R&B/Soul/Rap Artist at the Soul Train Lady of Soul Awards in 2006. Following her success, she planned a lot of collaboration.
Later that year, she appeared as a cast member in TV One's R&B Divas: Atlanta, which followed the lives of five chart-topping R&B singers from the 1990s. She appeared in all three seasons of the show, which lasted three years.
Keke appeared with the group at various events, including the Essence Music Festival. She became involved with a number of non-profit organizations and was a spokesperson for the National Coalition Against Domestic Violence (NCADV).
Keke Wyatt married her road manager, Rahmat Morton, at the age of 18 and had three children with him, but the marriage did not work out because her husband was constantly beating and abusing her. She once stated that she stabbed her husband in order to protect herself and her children. Keke filed for divorce in 2009 and was granted a divorce based on domestic violence. She was pregnant at the time, and her child died as a result of the stress.
She remarried Michael Jamar, an ordained minister. By 2013, they were raising six children together: three from her previous marriage, two from her new marriage, and Jamar's from his previous relationship. Wyatt and her husband welcomed their eighth child in early 2015, and her ninth pregnancy was announced in April 2017. However, this marriage was not entirely successful, as it was reported that the couple was divorced while she was eight months pregnant with her ninth child.
By November 2018, she had married Zachariah Darring, and on October 14, 2019, she announced that she was expecting her tenth child with Zachariah. On January 6, 2020, she gave birth to a healthy boy whom she named Ke' Riah Darring.
As of September 2022, Keke Wyatt, a well-known American R&B singer, and reality television star has a net worth of $5 million. Her significant earnings come from her musical career, as well as TV shows, modeling, and acting. Many songs have become huge hits, including "Soul Sista."

Walking Shadow (2001) Po-Chih Leong, Joe Mantegna, Ernie Hudson, Marcia Gay Harden
As a favor to his longtime lover Dr. Susan Silverman, Spenser agrees to investigate the stalking of a theater company director, pro bono. But before he can get started, an actor is killed by an arrow in the middle of a play.
Now that there's a real-life murder to investigate, Spenser and Hawk, get to do what they do best–even if it means death threats from the Chinese underworld, being ordered out of town by the tough local police chief, and dodging bullets and crossbows at every turn. By the time they leave the quaint ocean front community, the population has decreased by three, and live theater will never be the same.

SNEAK PEEK: FOX's Fall TV PREVIEW 2017
September 13, 2017 • Posted under: In Technicolor, Trailers	by Jeff Andrews
Tags: Fall TV, FOX, FOX Television, Ghosted, LA To Vegas, THE GIFTED, The Orville, The Resident
Once again, continuing our sneak peek at the 2017 Fall TV lineup from each major network. Recently we checked out the Fall Programming over at ABC, CBS, and NBC here's what's in store this Fall from FOX!
From Emmy Award-winning executive producer and creator Seth MacFarlane ("Ted") and directed by Jon Favreau ("The Jungle Book," "Iron Man"), THE ORVILLE is a one-hour science fiction series set 400 years in the future that follows the adventures of the U.S.S. Orville, a mid-level exploratory vessel. Its crew, both human and alien, faces the wonders and dangers of outer space, while also dealing with the familiar, often humorous problems of regular people in a workplace…even though some of those people are from other planets, and the workplace is a faster-than-light spaceship. In the 25th century, Earth is part of the Planetary Union, a far-reaching, advanced and mostly peaceful civilization with a fleet of 3,000 ships. Down on his luck after a bitter divorce, Planetary Union officer ED MERCER (MacFarlane) finally gets his chance to command one of these ships: the U.S.S. Orville. Determined to prove his worth and write a new chapter in his life, Ed finds that task all the more difficult when the First Officer assigned to his ship is his ex-wife, Kelly. Somehow, Ed and Kelly must put the past behind them and, with the help of the crew, navigate fascinating and sometimes dangerous adventures in outer space, as well as the tumultuous and captivating day-to-day personal relationships with their colleagues.
The series stars Seth MacFarlane as Ed Mercer, Adrianne Palicki as Kelly Grayson, Penny Johnson Jerald as Dr. Claire Finn, Scott Grimes as Gordon Malloy, Peter Macon as Lt. Commander Bortus, Halston Sage as Alara Kitan, J. Lee as John LaMarr, and Mark Jackson as Isaac.
The Orville premiered on September 10, 2017.

Starring Craig Robinson ("The Office," "This Is the End") and Adam Scott ("Parks and Recreation," "Big Little Lies"), GHOSTED is a single-camera, action-comedy about the unlikely partnership between two down-on-their-luck polar opposites tasked with an even more unlikely mission: saving the human race from aliens. LEROY WRIGHT (Robinson) is a cynical skeptic and former missing persons detective, who, if we're speaking frankly, thinks that "aliens" are a big ole bunch of B.S. and that people who believe in them are certifiably nuts…People like MAX JENNIFER (Scott). Max is a genius "true believer" in the paranormal who's convinced his wife was abducted by aliens. At low points in their lives, both Leroy and Max are recruited by CAPTAIN AVA LAFREY (Ally Walker, "Colony," "Sons of Anarchy"), a take-no-prisoners, former Air Force test pilot and head of the Bureau Underground, a secret government organization investigating paranormal cases. Lafrey, along with her staff – BARRY SHAW (Adeel Akhtar, "Unforgotten," "The Night Manager"), an overly friendly forensic pathologist, and DELILAH WARD, a highly opinionated tech specialist – will support Leroy and Max in their quest for answers. Now, this heroic group of underdogs will look into "unexplained" activity in Los Angeles that often leads them to scary, thrilling and hilarious places, as they attempt to uncover the truth and keep the earth rotating on its axis for at least one more day.
The series stars Craig Robinson as Leroy Wright, Adam Scott as Max Jennifer, Amber Stevens West as Annie, Ally Walker as Captain Ava Lafrey, and Adeel Akhtar as Barry.

Focusing on three doctors at different stages of their careers and a dedicated young nurse, THE RESIDENT is a provocative new medical drama that rips back the curtain to reveal the truth of what really happens, both good and bad, in hospitals across the country. Meet DR. CONRAD HAWKINS (Matt Czuchry, "The Good Wife"), one of the best doctors at Chastain Park Memorial Hospital. Charming, arrogant and only a third-year resident, Conrad does everything in the most unconventional way possible. Along with treating patients, Conrad believes it is his job to burst the illusions of first-year residents, like DR. DEVON PRAVESH (Manish Dayal, "Halt and Catch Fire"), and turn them into real-life doctors. Devon is an innocent idealist, who wears his finely tuned moral compass and passion for science like armor. With Conrad's help, however, Devon quickly discovers the reality of his chosen profession is not what he imagined, and that ethical lines are often blurred. Nothing, not even the best medical school in the country, could have prepared him for what he's about to learn. As Devon accompanies Conrad through the hospital's halls, he meets distinguished chief of surgery DR. RANDOLPH BELL (Bruce Greenwood, "The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story," "Mad Men"), the face of the hospital and its most sought-after doctor, whose diminishing skills, and the errors they cause, are covered with the help of allies under his command; DR. MINA OKAFOR (Shaunette Renée Wilson, "Billions"), a rising star surgeon from Nigeria who is threatening Bell's dominance, but who also is in the U.S. on a visa; and NICOLETTE NEVIN (Emily VanCamp, "Revenge"), one of Chastain Memorial's most respected nurses and Conrad's on-again-off-again romantic partner. While Conrad opens Devon's eyes to the stark realities of hospital life, the once-optimistic young doctor soon realizes that the practice of medicine is a business, like any other. Not all patients are angels and not all doctors are gods, but one thing's for sure: expectations are meant to be shattered.
The series stars Matt Czuchry as Senior Resident Conrad Hawkins, Manish Dayal as Dr. Devon Pravesh, Bruce Greenwood as Dr. Soloman Bell, Emily VanCamp as Nurse Nicolette "Nic", Shaunette Wilson as Mina Okafor, and Valerie Cruz as Renata Lopez.

From executive producers Will Ferrell ("Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy," "Elf"), Adam McKay ("The Big Short"), Lon Zimmet ("Unbreakable Kimmie Schmidt") and Steve Levitan ("Modern Family"), LA TO VEGAS is a single-camera ensemble comedy about an airline crew and the eccentric passengers who, every weekend, take the roundtrip flight from Los Angeles to Las Vegas with one goal in mind – to come back a winner. Welcome to Jackpot Airlines, a budget carrier whose junket flight from LA to Vegas and back again, is filled with dreamers looking for that big score. Holding (or, more to the point, barely holding) these voyages together is RONNIE (Kim Matula, "UnREAL"), a long-suffering flight attendant who tries to keep her cool (often times, with little success) whether she's dealing with a bipolar bride-to-be or the dead body in Row 13. Managing the revolving door of bachelor parties and 21st birthdays gets even trickier when Ronnie develops a "location-ship" with COLIN (Ed Weeks, "The Mindy Project"), a regular passenger and an economics professor, whose son and soon-to-be ex-wife live in Vegas. Further complicating her job every weekend is CAPTAIN DAVE (Emmy Award nominee and Golden Globe winner Dylan McDermott, "The Practice," "American Horror Story"), the narcissistic pilot whose fighter-pilot dreams never quite worked out; BERNARD (Nathan Lee Graham, "The Comeback," "Hitch"), the always-positive career flight attendant who thinks there's no flight more magical than the LA-to-Vegas; ARTEM (Peter Stormare, "The Big Lebowski"), the genial professional gambler who serves as the plane's resident (but unofficial) bookie; and NICHOLE (Olivia Macklin, "The Young Pope"), the sweet-natured, part-time stripper who's a lot savvier than people realize. It won't be easy, but this unlikely group of miscreants and dreamers will eventually go from being strangers on a plane to a supportive if unconventional, family…from Friday to Sunday…whether they like it or not.
Starring Dylan McDermott as Captain Dave, Ed Weeks as Colin, Amir Talai as Alan, Nathan Lee Graham as Bernard, Olivia Macklin as Nichole, Peter Stormare as Artem, and Kim Matula as Ronnie.

FORUM TAU MATAN (WATCH FORUM)
Secretariat: Rua Presidente Nicolau Lobato, Colmera, Dili, Timor-Leste.
Contact: +670-729-5781 / +670-724-2099 / E-mail: ftm121203@yahoo.com
Press Release ida ne'e iha lian Tetum.
Letter from FTM to the World Bank cancelling their participation in the program.
La'o Hamutuk press release and chronology of events relating to AusAID's revocation of grant to FTM in 2005.
Former AusAID Director Peter Ellis' web page on this and related issues.
FORUM TAU MATAN REJECTS WORLD BANK FUNDING
On 19 June 2007, FORUM TAU MATAN publicly announced to Suara Timor Lorosa'e (STL), Timor Post (TP), Diário, and Radio Rakambia, with the title:
"FORUM TAU MATAN ESTABLISHES A LEADERSHIP TRAINING PROGRAM FOR UNIVERSITY STUDENTS AND CAMPAIGN ON PROTECTION OF CHILD VICTIMS OF CONFLICT WITH THE LAW."
STL's headline for the article was "During 2006, 1074 cases of children committing crimes registered" and Timor Post headlined "During the crisis, 1074 children committed crimes and involved in politics."
With this press release, FTM would like the public to know that FTM is cancelling the leadership training program funded by the World Bank.
FTM is cancelling this program because FTM discovered in a meeting with the World Bank at FTM's offices on 2 July that part of the funding to support this leadership training program comes from AusAID.
On this issue, the World Bank manages the funding to carry out this leadership training program. But FTM discovered that the money doesn't come only from the World Bank, but also from AusAID.
AusAID's involvement in this program is an impediment. FTM has an unresolved problem with AusAID.
In June 2005, AusAID cancelled a contract which it had signed with FTM, which they had already publicized in a press release of the Australian Department of Foreign Affairs (No. AA 04 089) on 10 December 2004 to celebrate International Human Rights Day and to show Australia's commitment on human rights.
At the end, AusAID withdrew funds which they had already promised, on the grounds that they found that FTM, together with 12 other Timorese NGOs, was involved in the democratic movement to defend the sovereignty of the Democratic Republic of Timor-Leste in the Timor Sea negotiations.
Since this problem, FTM believes that AusAID's support to Timor-Leste with political intentions, especially on the Timor Sea negotiations. The Australian government, through AusAID, stopped funding to Timorese NGOs is a direct threat to the civil society in Timor-Leste. This is a policy to squelch all democratic movement and human rights in Timor-Leste. This is contradicting the Australian promises on human rights and democracy.
The former Australian official who was responsible for these funds which FTM merited to receive in 2005 revealed to the public that Canberra ordered him to lie to FTM and to all Timorese NGOs. He discovered that the Australian government stopped funding to Timorese NGOs because these NGOs protested Australia's position in the Timor Sea negotiations.
On 8 June 2005, FTM sent a letter to the Australian Ambassador in Timor-Leste asking for clarification. FTM then issued a press release to clarify this situation to the public in Timor-Leste and Australia.
But, the Australian Ambassador to Timor-Leste responded through the newspaper Diario Tempo on 7 October 2005, accusing FTM of mismanaging the fund.
FTM totally rejects this accusation through the media and publication (see Paul Cleary's book Shakedown: Australia's Grab for Timor Oil pages 224-229). FTM views the accusation as irrational, because FTM never received funding through AusAID before AusAID cancelled the first project for human rights activities and democracy, which they themselves had decided to give to FTM.
Through this press release we also apologize to the six universities and the media, which we had already contacted to request collaboration for conducting this leadership training program.
We will continue our efforts to assure that this program can be realized sometime in the future.
For public.
FTM takes responsibility for the contents of this press release.

Q: ASP.NET session key for web service security? I've got a web service (ASP.NET 2.0) that I'm calling from javascript using jQuery's $.ajax().  I've been told that the session key is often used as a nonce in a situation like this for security purposes; the web service takes a key as one of its parameters and only returns data if it matches the current session key.
I'm attempting to accomplish this by setting the value of a hidden field to the current SessionID on every Page_Load (i.e. every postback), then grabbing it in the javascript to pass as a parameter.  But it's never the same key as the web service's current key (Context.Session.SessionID).
Is this possible to resolve, or should I be doing this another way?
EDIT: code to set session in hidden field as requested.
hfSession.Value = Context.Session.SessionID;

That's in the Page_Load of a .ascx control, not under any conditional (i.e. not wrapped with if (!Page.IsPostBack).

A: I believe you are trying to prevent Cross Site Script Request Forgery (CSRF).  The Session ID is actually sent across as a cookie and the attacker can set this.  Rather than use the Session ID itself, you should use a randomly generated number stored in a Session variable.
String GetCSRFToken()
{
    String token = (String)Session["CSRFToken"];
    if( token == null )
    {
        token = GenerateLongRandomString();
        Session["CSRFToken"] = token;
    }
    return token;
}

void AssertValidCSRFToken(String token)
{
    if( token != GetCSRFToken() )
    {
        throw new Exception("Invalid Request!")
    }
}

Here is a link to another question with more info on preventing this kind of attack:
CSRF Validation Token: session id safe?

A: Asp.net actually generates a new Session ID for every request until you use the Session State to store some value. This could be a reason why the values are different. Try and save something in the session. Perhaps
Session["SessionID"] = Context.Session.SessionID;
hfSession.Value = Context.Session.SessionID;

A: A new SessionID is generated each time the page loads until the session is actually allocated. So if you don't actually allocate anything to the session, the SessionID will change upon each page load.

Skirt Club Launch: Burlesque, Spin the Bottle, and Love Talk
Carla Torres
| Sex & Gender |
Carla Torres | May 13, 2015 | 11:30am
I'm all about progressive societies, so when I found out that Skirt Club, an all-women's club for the sexually curious, was coming to Miami, I had to go and see whether the Magic City was ready for this kind of thing. I registered with a pseudonym under the pretense that I wasn't really supposed to tell anybody who I was or that I was a journalist, so I came up with an alter ego.
(Luna, yoga instructor.)
Unfortunately, I didn't even have the chance to put her to use because a friend kept introducing me by my real name. Next time, maybe.
The concept of Skirt Club is pretty simple: a safe environment where bicurious, bisexual, or heterosexual women looking to explore outside-the-box can be themselves without fear. After speaking with founder Genevieve LeJeune on the phone the previous night and hearing her story of why she came up with Skirt Club, I wanted to attend, if even just to meet her and see if the image I had of her matched the real thing. It did.
Skirt Club Launch Party Tonight: All-Womens Club for the Sexually Curious
Skirt Club: The Ultimate Expression of No Strings Attached
LeJeune has a heavy British accent (she's from London), and it's sexy. She's petite, dark-haired, and the perfect spokesperson for this kind of thing: sophisticated, beautiful, and oozing with sensuality. Members of Skirt Club wore black with some type of feathers. As LeJeune kicked off the evening, she assured everyone that their privacy is the most important thing. "I'm giving you a safe place to explore," she said. "The next one will be a bit more risqué if you're into that sort of thing." The initial launch was a way to test the waters.
LeJeune, who moved to Miami this past January because of her husband (yes, she's happily married), wasn't sure the city was ready for Skirt Club. "I thought the heavy Latino population would bring this concept down because of the sexist men, but I'm surprised to see the turnout."
The turnout she referred to was about 50-plus women who all showed up for different reasons. There were groups of girlfriends that had heard about the event through various platforms and thought it would be a fun night on the town; there were also recently single girls who just got out of long relationships and took this as a sign from the universe to explore. Even engaged, married, and happily committed women who simply thought "Why not?" were part of the festivities.
"Everyone has a fantasy," LeJeune said. "Regardless of why they are here, we just want to stretch and open the mind."
An hour of open bar, followed by a burlesque performance helped whet everyone's whistle, and before you knew it, women had taken up residence on the rugs of Cavalli Club to play spin the bottle.
I didn't have the chance to participate in the festivities and live out my Sex and the City moment when Carrie kisses Alanis Morissette during a game of spin the bottle. Instead, I found myself in deep conversation with a few ladies. We talked existentialism, psychedelics, vegetables, likes, and loves. Surprisingly enough, sex never even came up. Of course, everyone was fully dressed (for the most part) and not in lingerie (the dress code for the actual play parties), so that helped, but still, the unifying theme here wasn't to get it on. It was about empowering women to do and think and be whatever the hell they want without being judged, which for it being 2015, it's about damn time that became the norm.
The next Skirt Club is set for June 25. To sign up, click skirtclub.co.uk

Although practiced clinically for more than 40 years, the use of hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) transplantation remains limited by the inability to expand functional HSCs ex vivo. To determine the role of phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)/AKT signaling in human hematopoietic stem and progenitor cell (HSPC) maintenance, we examined the effect of genetic and pharmacological inhibition of AKT on human umbilical cord blood (UCB) CD34+ cells. We found that knock-down of AKT1 in human UCB CD34+ cells using short interfering RNAs targeting AKT1 enhances their quiescence and colony formation potential in vitro. We treated human UCB CD34+ cells with an AKT-specific inhibitor (AKTi) and performed both in vitro and in vivo stem and progenitor cell assays. We found that ex vivo treatment of human HSPCs maintains CD34 expression and enhances colony formation in serial replating assays. Moreover, pharmacological inhibition of AKT enhances the short-term repopulating potential of human UCB CD34+ cells in immunodeficient mice. Mechanistically, genetic and pharmacological inhibition of AKT activity promotes human HSPC quiescence. These preclinical results suggest a positive role for AKTi during ex vivo culture of human UCB HSPCs.


O yea! O yea! I do call the Cape Breton Chapter of the Order of Good Cheer to.. order. You are hereby inducted as a member in good standing.
Be it therefore resolved by the assembled members of the CB Chapter of the Order of Good Cheer that we take an extended lunch on Friday, February the 8th to have a little fun. A little Bar-B-Q, a little potluck, a little drink, followed by a good-old game of street hockey in the parking lot. The spirit of winter will be killed by our festive attitudes, summer-inspired attire and general merriment.
Adopted this 28th Day of January, 2008. Royal Ascent granted by [insert my boss' name here] on the same date.


The following sections provide information on functionality common to all ProEssentials components.
All ProEssentials charting components have access to the Export Dialog via right clicking chart or pressing X key. See AllowExporting.
The MetaFile format is a good method to export the components image. ProEssentials metafile exports are true vector renderings and the metafile will be able to adapt to varying output resolutions. However, since the image has textual attributes, the image should not be stretched or squeezed. If so, the text will also be stretched or squeezed. If re-sizing, be sure to maintain the length to width aspect ratio. WMF is an older format with best support. EMF attempts to support bitmaps and gradients and rasterization plus resolution independence but usually a PNG or JPG format is best to support exporting charts with gradients.
The BMP format is the most common image export format, however, it uses a large amount of memory and doesnt necessarily take advantage of high resolution printers.
Similar to the Bitmap format, the JPEG format is compressed to take less memory but still doesnt take advantage of high resolution printers. This format is widely used on web pages. This format is best suited for photographs because line art will be fuzzy. A better format for line art is the PNG.
Similar to the Bitmap format, the PNG format is compressed to take less memory but still doesnt take advantage of high resolution printers. This format is gaining use on web pages and is most similar to the GIF format. This format will produce the best looking compressed raster images.
Similar to the Metafile format, image is vector based, modern browsers have grown great support for display and Internet Explorer and Chrome also have very good printing support. Best to set RenderEngine to Hybrid while exporting SVGs if you want to preserve 100% vector to the printed page. Alpha content can cause some printer drivers to rasterize the image.
When the Text / Data Only format is selected and the user presses the Export button, a Text / Data Export Dialog is invoked.
The Text / Data Export Dialog allows the components information to be exported in a variety of ways. The user selects the desired data and whether or not to include labels. The Data to Export section will change depending upon the component. The user then chooses either a Table or List style and output precision.
The text export dialog is a useful tool for the developer as well as the end-user. If you are having trouble programmatically passing data into the component, you can use this export dialog to export the data into Notepad to verify what is currently inside the ProEssentials component. Its best to export in a List Style with Maximum Precision. This will usually shed light on the problem and allow you to adjust your logic to properly pass the data into ProEssentials. If you are having trouble passing data, please use this tip before calling for technical support. Our support staff will likely ask you to try this approach to resolve the problem.
The ClipBoard will be the most common destination. It provides a quick method of sharing information with other Windows applications.
When exporting to a File, the user must supply a filename via a SaveAs File Dialog. It is not shown because it is a standard SaveAs Dialog.
When the Printer destination is selected and the user presses the Print button, a Print Dialog is invoked.
The Print Dialog allows the user to select a printer, adjust printer setup, and if the component has a vertical scrollbar, allows the user to adjust Scrolling Subsets Print Options. The Scrolling Subsets Print Options enables the user to export multiple pages. The component is automatically scrolled one page at a time, and each page is in turn sent to the printer. See the various chapters for specific printing documentation per programmatic interface. Or see PEprintgraph.
The Export Size section changes depending on the Format and Destination selected. When exporting a Bitmap, JPEG or PNG, the only unit size available is pixels. When exporting to the Printer, No Specific Size changes to Full Page. When exporting Text / Data, the Size section is hidden.
When exporting images, the DPI setting is only applied if the Large Font selection is checked. Exporting at 100 DPI is good for images destine to the screen. 300 DPI is best when image may need to be printed.
All ProEssentials components have maximization capabilities. Maximization is the process of copying the component into a modal dialog box enlarged to fit the screen. When the user is finished working with the maximized version, they can click the title bar or press Esc to return to the normal sized component. See AllowMaximization.
The Maximization mechanism creates a copy of the component and maximizes this copy. This allows the underlying control to still receive data in a real-time data monitoring application. However, this also means that there is no DataHotSpot feedback between the maximized component and your program. To maintain DataHotSpot feedback, you will have to maximize the actual component by adjusting the Width and Height properties for VB/Delphi developers or via the MoveWindow API if you are a C/C++ developer.
All ProEssentials Dialogs have Help buttons which access "PEGRAPHS.HLP". This help file contains end-user information about the use of ProEssentials components. It's pretty basic so we disable this option by default. The property HelpFileName allows the developer to change the file which gets opened when the user selects a ProEssentials Help button or menu item and is the best use for enabling the Help user interface option.
ProEssentials components respond to the mouse as follows.
Right-Button Single-Clicking invokes a popup menu.
Left-Button Double-Clicking will show the customization dialog. 3D Scientific Graph components will auto-rotate upon Double-Clicking.
Left-Button Single-Clicking will give the component the input focus. If user clicks on a hot-spot, the corresponding event or notification message will be invoked.
Left-Button can be used to control scrollbars.
Switches between monochrome and color viewing styles.
Toggles between custom and original parameters.
Maximizes the component to fit the screen.
Shows the Text/Data export dialog.
Scrolls both vertical and horizontal scrollbars by one line.
Pages horizontal scrollbar to the right.
Pages horizontal scrollbar to the left.
Moves vertical scrollbar to its first position.
Moves vertical scrollbar to its last position.
Moves horizontal scrollbar to its left-most position.
Moves horizontal scrollbar to its right-most position.
Built-in menus and dialog tabs can be disabled if needed. There is also a mechanism to add your own menu items if needed. See CustomMenuText. Also see Common Question 38. Within the demo, see example 127.
AllowUserInterface can be used to disable all mouse and keyboard interfaces or just the mouse or just the keyboard portions.


This short story was published in Good Housekeeping magazine in February 1929. When Jack Adrian collected it for his anthology of Benson short stories he noted the Benson frequently used Rye, the town where he then lived, in his novels under a variety of names including Tilling and Tillingham and, in a fit of absent mindedness presumably, in Desirable Residences Benson transplanted Miss Mapp and Diva from Tilling to Tillingham.
Adrian changed that back to Tilling his book and but we've left it as is in our annotated version of it which is online.


The former lover of Sven Goran Eriksson received £300,000 for her kiss and tell story to the Mail on Sunday and the News of the World, the phone-hacking trial has heard.
Faria Alam, 47, began an affair with the Swede shortly after she joined the Football Association in April 2003.
The Old Bailey heard that Ericsson started wooing Alam almost immediately in a written statement read out to the court.
Part of the seduction involved long lunches in private dining rooms as well as dinner dates.
The court heard that details of the affair became known after the News of the World hacked the couple's mobile phones.
According to the statement: "I was impressed – I would say in the office I was going for longer lunches. I'm not sure if they knew I was going with Sven," she said.
The court heard that Ms Alam's phone was hacked by private investigator Glenn Mulcaire on behalf of the NoW in June 2004.
After returning that month from Euro 2004 with the England team, Eriksson told his lover that there were reporters who knew about the relationship and Alam "freaked out".
In an attempt to avoid publicity, the pair flew out to Eriksson's native Sweden, but when they arrived at his home there were reporters waiting, forcing them to stay indoors all weekend.
The story of their relationship appeared in the NoW on 18 July 2004, but Alam was not named and a picture of her outside her flat in south east London did not show her face.
When the news broke, Eriksson asked her "How do you want to deal with the situation?" and she said: "I will deny it."
Despite her denials, she was fired from her job as PA to then-chief executive of the FA David Davies in September 2004 but remained in contact with Eriksson for months afterwards.
The court also heard that Mulcaire recorded a message left by Italian ex-footballer Luciano Marangon in June 2006 asking Eriksson if he wanted to appear in an Italian version of Big Brother.
The manager, who had worked in Italy before managing England between 2001 and 2006, at first said he was interested but eventually turned the offer down.
Mulcaire has already admitted phone hacking.

More than 9400 deer checked during Ohio's two-day gun hunting season
Hunters checked 9,447 white-tailed deer during Ohio's 2015 two-day deer-gun hunting season, Dec. 28-29, according to the Ohio Department of Natural Resources (ODNR). The last time Ohio held a two-day December deer-gun season was in 2012 with 14,365 deer harvested. That year, the season was held on a weekend and accounted for just more than 6 percent of the entire deer harvest. This year's two-day season total is projected to account for slightly more than 5 percent of all deer harvested.
Hunters still have opportunities to pursue deer this winter. Muzzleloader season is Jan. 9-12, 2016, and archery season remains open through Sunday, Feb. 7, 2016.
Deer Management Goals
The ODNR Division of Wildlife remains committed to properly managing Ohio's deer populations. The goal of Ohio's Deer Management Program is to provide a deer population that maximizes recreational opportunities, while minimizing conflicts with landowners and motorists.
Until recently, deer populations in nearly all of Ohio's counties were well above goal. In the last few years, through increased antlerless harvests, most counties are now at or near goal. Therefore, to help stabilize deer populations, bag limits were reduced, and antlerless permit use has been eliminated in most counties for the 2015-2016 season.
The ODNR Division of Wildlife is in the process of revising Ohio's population goals and is asking hunters that receive the survey to help by completing and returning their survey as soon as possible. Hunters for this year's survey were randomly selected from the list of hunters who purchased a license and deer permit by Nov. 16. Landowner surveys have already been completed, and hunter surveys were mailed in early December. Public input is an important part of Ohio's deer management program, and survey participants are asked to complete and return their surveys to ensure that hunters have a clear voice in helping to decide the direction of deer management in Ohio.
Hunting Popularity
Hunting is the best and most effective management tool for maintaining Ohio's healthy deer population. Ohio ranks fifth nationally in resident hunters and 11th in the number of jobs associated with hunting-related industries. Hunting has a more than $853 million economic impact in Ohio through the sale of equipment, fuel, food, lodging and more, according to the National Shooting Sports Foundation's Hunting in America: An Economic Force for Conservation publication.
Find more information about deer hunting in the Ohio 2015-2016 Hunting and Trapping Regulations or at wildohio.gov. An updated deer harvest report is posted online each Wednesday at wildohio.gov/deerharvest.
ODNR ensures a balance between wise use and protection of our natural resources for the benefit of all. Visit the ODNR website at ohiodnr.gov.
Editor's Note: A list of all white-tailed deer checked by hunters using firearms during the 2015 two-day deer-gun hunting season is shown below. The first number following the county's name shows the harvest numbers for 2015, and the 2012 numbers are in parentheses.
