WordsDay: Groff?s Monsters is a lot more than just ambitious chick-lit
2008-05-22 18:55:00 It might be easy to categorize Lauren Groff?s debut novel The Monsters of Templeton as chick-lit with literary pretensions. After all, the main character, Willie Upton, returns to her hometown in self-imposed exile, disgraced and unsure how to find redemption. Willie?s single mother has issues. Her best friend has issues. Men are generally cads, jerks, comic foils not to be taken seriously, or manipulative bastards?or, at best, they move through the world oblivious to nearly everything around them. There?s lots of soul searching, lots of feminine empowerment, lots of women-know-best-wink-wink, nudge-nudge, don?t-we-sisters? But Groff?s novel is nearly perfect in all ways. The writing, the characters, and the insights into life all feel full and fully realized. The Monsters of Templeton is a rich, wonderfully readable literary achievement. Templeton is a not-so-thinly veiled version of Cooperstown, New York, complete with a baseball museum, a national literary icon, the state histori...

The Loch Ness Monster, The Legend
2008-03-25 22:55:00 Loch Ness is in Scotland, near the city of Inverness. Loch Ness is a lake of fresh water, with warm waters in the surface and very cold in the depths. It has 56.4 square Km (21.8 square miles).There are some points where the depth reaches 200 meters , in addition to numerous underwater canals that flow to the sea.It's a lake surrounded by mountains, what makes it very shady. It is said that the Loch Ness Monster, also known as Nessie, lives there.The characteristics of the lake make very hard to investigate about the existence of Nessie.Around the legend, it has been created a commerce that benefits the zone: hotels, merchandising, souvenirs, photomontages...But the belief in the existence of a huge creature that inhabits the Loch Ness is not modern. The first reference to the Loch Ness Monster is in 565 A.C. A missionary called Saint Columba encountered a strange creature.Since then, the sightings of these creatures, both inside or out from the water, have been counted in hundreds...

Water Horse or Loch Ness play the movie games!
2007-12-22 00:00:00 The movie website for The Water Horse: Legend of the Deep is good for finding out what the movie is about and for playing games. The games are the best part of the website - choose from 3 games - the best one is the Water Horse puzzle game...choose your difficulty, and then fit together the puzzle pieces to form a picture...a nice twist on this traditional game is that instead of having a still picture, you can choose to have a video!! This means the little puzzle pieces are moving with video instead of picture, really fun! Once the video is together, a trailer of the movie will run. The second game is the "Match" game, which is like memory - you're given playing cards with scenes from the movie, and you match the cards together...choose from different levels which go from easy to hard. The last game is the "Crusoe Cruisader" game, where you control Crusoe the water horse as he swims through the water, be sure to come up to the top of the ocean for air so your life doesnt run ou...

Camisetas -Threadless- Octopus Vs Loch Ness-

Luego también cualquiera de los compradores puede subir la foto luciéndose con la camiseta adquirida. Puede que hayan más cosas que se me escapan porque parece ser norma de la casa, hacerse las fotos en poses divertidas, y además he comprobado que los diseñadores también tienen un apartado donde se proponen sloganes, y la gente los vota.Parece que la funcionalidad de la página al respecto deja un poco de desear, porque me ha resultado dificil encontrar algún precio, pero después de repasar la página al final lo he podido ver, los precios suelen ir entre 15 y 17 dólares.Ya digo yo que no acabo de entender esta página que ostenta el lema: Threadless T-shirts, no more nudes, que siguiendo en el terreno de las incomprensiones, yo lo traduciría como: camisetas de poco hilo, no más desnudos.

An amateur scientist has captured what Loch Ness Monster watchers say is among the finest footage ever taken of the elusive mythical creature reputed to swim beneath the waters of Scotland's most mysterious lake."I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw this jet black thing, about 45-feet long, moving fairly fast in the water," said Gordon Holmes, the 55-year-old a lab technician from Shipley, Yorkshire, who took the video this past Saturday.He said it moved at about 6 mph and kept a fairly straight course."My initial thought is it could be a very big eel, they have serpent-like features and they may explain all the sightings in Loch Ness over the years."

A man has captured what Nessie watchers say is possible footage of the supposed mythical creature beneath Scotland's most mysterious lake. "I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw this jet black thing, about 45 feet long, moving fairly fast in the water," said Gordon Holmes, the 55-year-old a lab technician from Shipley, Yorkshire, who took the video Saturday. Nessie watcher and marine biologist Adrian Shine viewed the video and hoped to properly analyze it in the coming months. "I see myself as a skeptical interpreter of what happens in the loch, but I do keep an open mind about these things and there is no doubt this is some of the best footage I have seen," said Shine, of the Loch Ness 2000 center in Drumnadrochit, on the shores of the lake. Holmes said whatever it was moved at about 6 mph and kept a fairly straight course. "My initial thought is i...

Kelis is adamant that mythical stories such as the Loch Ness are true. "I don't know too much about Rock Ness but when I hear that name I immediately think of the monster. I definitely believe in it. I always think these myths come from somewhere so there is some truth in it. There is something in that water!"

Rubber whale rescue on Loch Ness
2007-05-04 06:29:00 The whale died despite the efforts of rescuers. Divers who battled in vain to save a whale that became stranded in the River Thames a year ago are to practice rescue techniques in Loch Ness. A two tonne inflatable rubber mock-up of a pilot whale and life-size replicas of a seal and dolphin will be used during the exercise at Dores. It will be staged by the British Divers Marine Life Rescue (BDMLR) in June. Tens of thousands of people gathered to see the effort to save the distressed Thames whale last year. The female northern bottle-nose was the first of the species to be found in the River Thames since records began in 1913. The water-filled inflatable mammals we use are so lifelike that when the course has been run in the past, members of the public have offered to help, thinking they were real Natalie SimmonsBDMLR regional co-ordinator The Loch Ness marine medic course will include lectures on marine mammal biology and first aid at Dores Public Hall. This will be followed by prac...
