We had our first Roanoke SCBWI meeting today, and I am thrilled with the new group. Marcie Atkins recently returned from the fall conference in Arlington and she was gracious enough to print everyone a copy of her notes. She is working on her final project for her M.A. in Children's Literature at Hollins University - a YA novel in verse. I can't even imagine tackling a project like that. And did I...
Can Einstein make you afraid of heights? The answer is yes. Maybe. Well actually it's ageing that may make you suddenly develop a fear of heights and with good reason. Marcus Chown explains it much better than I can in this video clip: So yeah, anyway, as I was saying; Einstein (channeled through Marcus) can explain fear of heights 'in women of a certain age' (me) . Don't tell me you didn't find that...

Motown is throwing itself a birthday bash. A pair of public parties this weekend will culminate the hometown label's year-long 50th anniversary celebration and help support the nonprofit Motown Historical Museum. Here's a glance:
It is only five weeks since England’s players were basking in the warm afterglow of reaching the World Cup and conversation, in the build-up to their academic two final qualifying matches, turned to the thought that teams such as Argentina, Germany, Portugal and France might feasibly be missing from the draw in Cape Town on December 4.
The rise and fall of Everclear and The Cherry Poppin’ Daddies. by Michael Mannheimer and Casey Jarman This week, as if by some strange cosmic alignment, two large-looming ghosts from Oregon music history return to Portland for encore performances. And it turns out, Everclear and the Cherry Poppin’ Daddies have more in common than their disparate music [...] Related posts: Miss Murgatroid...
New Scientist reports that there is something big out there beyond the visible edge of our universe. That's the conclusion of the largest analysis to date of over 1000 galaxy clusters streaming in one direction at blistering speeds.

Thai power-pop and rock group Scrubb bring to spotlight their softer side in an exceptional 'Best of' album. It is quite surprising to know that Thai indie band Scrubb in Thailand. 'Surprising' indeed since vocalist Muey Thawachpol Wongboonsiri and guitarist Ball Torpong Chantabuppha are grubby, sloppy musicians who flavor Beatlesque tunes with sympathetic lyrics.
The Arsenal manager will need to change his strategy now that his gifted forward has joined the casualty list It was in the warm afterglow of a scintillating dismissal of AZ Alkmaar earlier this month that Arsène Wenger talked up an armoury that had become the envy of the Premier League.
