On Sunday, March 3rd, I will be joining authors Michelle Markel and Hope Anita Smith at the Central Branch of the Los Angeles Public Library for a panel discussion about why we write for children. We would love to see you there!

It was a cold night in New York on Tuesday, but we still had 11 teams come out for Trivia, and a great night was had by all. Most teams did really well to open the night with Current Events, but it was a slog for most with "Academy Awards Trivia", and we had a six-way tie for third place entering the Q Train lightning round. But the guys from DIMS took off after that, and had three successive perfect rounds to win the night with 53 points. Congrats to Ken and Darek, who bounced back from a rare week... Читать дальше...

Ever see one of those old movies where a ranch owner took a shovel to his land to dig a well and struck oil? The inconvenience of being drenched in black gold, Texas tea, etc., was more than offset by striking it rich. But if you do likewise on your property, it won’t be oil, and it will be a big problem – not just for you, but for everyone on your grid. While most people within city limits don’t dig wells, popular DIY projects ...

The trend now in fundraising is matching funds. it has been big for a while already, but recently there has been an explosion of sorts of organizations running massive fundraising campaigns with matching funds, turning your, for example, 100nis donation into 200nis. Personally I am somewhat skeptical that there really are matching funds being donated in many of these cases and assume much of those matching funds were donated, or going to be donated, anyway and they are only being called matching...

However, if it is not able to stay fit in the android phone, and then it certainly does in the cloud. Information: contacts, incoming and outgoing calls logs, pictures, messages, and browser data and as well as others storage data in terms of music, images, and conversations live inside in the nifty android digital gadgets such ...

I was pleasantly surprised by the new Cadbury Darkmilk bar when I reviewed it last year - it's both sweet and creamy whilst retaining the richness of a darker chocolate - so I was very excited to try this Salted Caramel version when it launched recently.

What are the risks of type 1 diabetes?

People with type 1 diabetes are at increased risk for a number of health issues, including heart disease, kidney disease, loss of vision, nerve damage and amputations.

Importantly, these risks appear to be entirely due to poorly-controlled blood sugar, not simply having diabetes.

The American Diabetes Association has set the following blood sugar targets for people with diabetes who are otherwise healthy:

• Fasting blood glucose... Читать дальше...

Once in a great while you read a book that has the potential to shift paradigms.  The unusual and provocative Raising the Devil: Satanism, New Religions, and the Media, by Bill Ellis, is such a book.  Perhaps the main reason for this is that Ellis is a folklore scholar who takes his subject seriously.  He cites some unusual sources non-judgmentally, but critically.  He suggests that folklore can actually dictate reality for its believers, while not demanding that it defines how everyone else sees the world.

Summer is fast approaching and according to a report, it might be the hottest summer we ever had on record. It's time to get up from the winter slumber and gear up for scorching, sweaty, summer afternoons, and a key component that will help you beat the summer heat would be a bowl of sliced cucumbers.

A good garden planner is a very useful tool. I have kept a garden journal for many years and I record in it what I plant and where, I keep seed lists and who I have bought from and I try to keep myself organised. As my journal is largely narrative and in a diary format, whilst it is very useful, it does rely on me remembering more or less when I did something so I can look it up. I was therefore intrigued when I was contacted by Leticia from The Green Conspiracy to see if I was interested ...

Look at these adorable new dolls from Flair!

They are called the teeny tiny dolls. Each one fits snuggly in the palm of the hand. They are made from a tough plastic and feel quite sturdy unlike a lot of the plastic collectibles these days.

Each one comes with what appears to be an animal hat which is not removable. I think there are three dolls to collect at the moment which are - a unicorn, panda and pink rabbit and Izebella has the unicorn and rabbit.

Hand Habits have shared the video for new single ‘What Lovers Do’ ahead of the release of new album ‘Placeholder’ (out 1 May on Saddle Creek) and an extensive tour. Opening in a genteel, swaying manner akin to early Sharon Van Etten, the song has Meg Duffy claiming ‘now I know what love is for’ and offering self-depreciating observations about their past: ‘See it from a distance but the distance seems too far’; ‘Asking you a question, now the question ...
