In April of 2013 I vised Paris for the first time (with National Geographic Expeditions) and absolutely loved it. I took some amazing pictures while I was in Paris (and in Montmartre) but never got to see the South of France, which I would love to do. Last year I went on a photographic tour of Tuscany which was wonderful, but, being of Southern Italian heritage I wanted to revisit the South of Italy (the Amalfi coast and Sicily) where I had been in 1994 (my first time in Europe). So, my next trip to Europe will probably be the South of Italy and the South of France (Provence).

Mark Twain's vendetta volume
Mark Twain and Isabel Van Kleek Lyon. (From Robert Slotta )
There are a lot Van Cleef & Arpels alhambra necklace black replica of reasons why Laura Skandera Trombley spent 16 years working on a book about a woman whom generations of Mark Twain biographers dismissed as inconsequential to his life. But the biggest catalyst was the 450 page elephant in the room a manuscript Twain wrote in his final years savaging the reputation of his former personal assistant, Isabel Van Kleek Lyon.
That manuscript, never published but well known to Twain scholars, had little in common with "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn" and the other books that made Twain one of the nation's first celebrities. At its heart, Trombley believes, the manuscript was a blackmail tool, a libelous screed against Lyon, whose life Twain was fully prepared to ruin to protect family secrets and his place in American history.
Early biographers believed the manuscript's details, including Twain's imitation Van Cleef & Arpels alhambra necklace charge that Lyon tried to seduce him, to be true and that Lyon's role in Twain's life was too minute to bother with. But Trombley saw the work as an elaborate lie and wondered why Twain would bother. Her speculation turned into obsession, and eventually into "Mark Twain's Other Woman: The Hidden Story of His Final Years" (Alfred A. Knopf: 332 pp., $27.95), her third book dealing with Twain's life and legacy.
In the new book, Trombley dissects the long dismissed relationship between Twain and Lyon, whose ambitions brought her to the upper levels of American letters before Twain cast her off, publicly vilifying her to reporters as a conniver and thief.
In the end, Trombley says, Lyon became the victim of Twain's jealous daughter, Clara, and the fears of "an old man being overwhelmed and just at that point really emotionally reacting to converging forces. And one of those was the loss of his wife."
"Nobody had ever really spent much time writing about it," says Trombley, a Twain scholar whose day job is president of Claremont's Pitzer College. "When you think about it, here's Twain in the last years of his life, 450 pages he devotes to this. Why wouldn't you make this a major big deal?"
Trombley has proved to be adept at peeling back Samuel L. Clemens' carefully constructed persona and forcing scholars to reconsider some basic assumptions, says Bruce Michelson, professor of English at the University of Illinois, and president of the Mark Twain Circle of America.
Breaking the 'boys Van Cleef & Arpels necklace gold replica club'
Michelson, in fact, credits Trombley and fellow Twain scholar Susan Harris of the University of Kansas for challenging the conclusions of what he described as "pretty much a boys' club." Their research has forced Twain experts to recognize that women were the "majority party" in his adult life and made up the majority of his book reading audience in his lifetime, Michelson said. Their research showed that "scholars had to come down from the tree house and take down the 'Men Only' sign."
Michelson says he hasn't read Trombley's new work yet but lauded her decision to take on the subject of Twain's last years, which form a "special sort of mystery and [are] a mess to deal with. . . . He was bereaved; he had lost most of his money; his health was compromised; his celebrity had slipped away from his grip and taken on a life of its own; his friends and family and opportunists were fighting over what was left of him and his legacy."
Olivia became, in many ways, the steadying rudder in his life. One of Trombley's earlier books, "Mark Twain in the Company of Women," was her first major assault on conventional beliefs about Twain, arguing convincingly that Twain's best work, including "Huckleberry Finn," came when he was living in Hartford and surrounded by women: his wife and their three daughters (a son had died at 19 months), Susy, Clara and Jean. All but Clara would die before Twain.
Trombley believes the influence of women on Twain, including his wife's introducing him to leading social issues of the day, has been wrongly dismissed by chroniclers, beginning with Twain's hand picked biographer and first literary executor, Albert Bigelow Paine.
But Trombley thinks there's more at play behind the marginalization of Lyon than blinders on the biographers' eyes. She believes Twain and Clara exerted control over those early scholars. Why? Trombley believes it was because of Twain's outspoken positions on adultery, and his fear for his legacy and Clara's financial well being. The points of friction in the story of Twain and Lyons mirror a Victorian drama.

Meet the Big Brother 12 Houseguests 100
It getting pretty hard to fluster the contestants on Big Brother, so look for a huge, sneaky twist when the CBS reality hit starts its 12th season a twist that intended to shake up the game and create chaos and suspicion among the players.
don think we ever had so many BB superfans in the house at one time, says exec producer Allison Grodner. have an encyclopedic knowledge of the program and know it better than we do.
To throw them off, we going to make the game harder to play than ever before. how she do it: On premiere night (Thursday, July 8, 8/9c) the houseguests will be told that producers have slipped a mole into the group.
America will learn the impostor identity on July 15 during the first live episode and, through an interactive online process, fans will be able to suggest ways for the impostor to sabotage the players and disrupt the game.
So how does the Season 12 cast stack up?
TV Guide Magazine interviewed each of the players right before they went into the BB house. (Paolo Aviles, a 30 year old out of work real estate agent, later got cold feet and quit the show, dropping the head count to 13.)
We found no shortage of Type A show offs and high maintenance personalities among this year group, but they were virtually unanimous in their dislike of Season 11 prima donna Chima Simone, who was ejected from the show when she disobeyed Grodner repeated requests to go to the diary room and threw her pricey body mike into the swimming pool.
But opinions were split over last year surprise champ, sweetheart waitress Jordan Lloyd, who won the $500,000 grand prize without stabbing even one back.
Many in the BB12 cast admire how Jordan reinvented the game by playing it with honesty and decency, while others find her to be nave and clueless and feel she didn deserve the dough because she didn really earn it.
will be a lot of anti Jordan strategy coming into the house, which may or may not be wise, notes Grodner. we saw, the winner isn necessarily the one who plays the best game. It could be the one who pissed off the jury the least! our take on the BB12 players:
Occupation: Shoe Store Manager
An odd bird, to say the least. Bitting is loaded with tics and mannerisms that either endear her to the other houseguests or annoy the holy crap out of She prone to overstatement and self homage: have put everything my whole entire life on the line to go into the BB house, Bitting says. lot of people know me bangle cartier replica in Philadelphia and they won know where I am. This is the biggest risk of my life. It truth or dare time. And she never met a metaphor she couldn mangle: believe in Karma, she states. good to not burn the bridge too hard because you never know when it going to come back at you. Elenburg
This big, brawny bruiser is not fooling anybody, himself included. just a meat head jock so I need a brain to work with me in the BB house, says Elenburg. there be a doctor or lawyer or financial major I can team up with someone who will take me almost all the way to the end before I lie and stab him in the back. Living on a ranch has left Elenburg with a crazed fear of electric fences. His best friends are his brother and sister. And he won be helping out much in the BB kitchen. can put dishes away but I not a very good cooker, he says with a sluggy drawl. except for 90 second microwave. That I can definitely do. Fox
Occupation: Professor at Cal State Long Beach
He does not plan to admit he has a doctorate in communications. obsessed with BB and I know how to talk game, says Fox. grew up in very conservative Cypress, Texas, he says. know how to navigate through that sort of thing extremely well. The day Fox found out he was a BB finalist, he spotted Season 10 flamboyant Rennie at his knock off cartier gold bracelet local grocery store. A good omen?
Oy vey, what a pain! know I be the smartest one in the house and I a triathlete biking, swimming, running so watch out! says Gordon, a divorced single dad and Orthodox Jew who has already convinced the BB producers to provide him with kosher slop. He plans to shave ficw years off his age, so that he mix better with the younger players. spend my day dealing with old Jewish people and their foot problems, he says. I can deal with them I have the patience to deal with anything in the house. Well, almost anything. Gordon told us he doesn want to share space with any Arabs. States the doc: would have a problem with it politically. Haynes
Occupation: Hilton Hotel Sales Manager
A junior version of Dolly Parton, this tiny, saucy, gay friendly sexpot this season youngest contestant recently got imitation bangle cartier engaged to a medical technologist. going on BB is gonna be a nice break for him because there nothing crazier than a newly engaged girl! Haynes says with a country cackle. will make it clear to the men in the house right up front that I not available. You get yourself in trouble when you mix business and pleasure. And she does mean business. it comes to the physical competitions, I no powerhouse who gonna blow everyone else away. My strength lies is my ambition. And I am here to win. Hillis
Occupation: Deputy Sheriff Sergeant
Angie Dickinson has nothing on this policewoman. Though the bodaciously blond Hillis a divorcee with a 22 year old son is this year oldest houseguest, she also the dishiest. And she got an incredible back story: A self admitted child, Hillis nearly died of ovarian cancer in 1999 and taking that as a sign to straighten up decided to become a cop. just tell the houseguests that I pull people over for speeding and leave out my experience in criminal profiling, she says. can read faces.

It getting pretty hard to fluster the contestants on Big Brother, so look for a huge, sneaky twist when the CBS reality hit starts its 12th season a twist that intended to shake up the game and create chaos and suspicion among the players.
don think we ever had so many BB superfans in the house at one time, says exec producer Allison Grodner. have an encyclopedic knowledge of the program and know it better than we do.
To throw them off, we going to make the game harder to play than ever before. how she do it: On premiere night (Thursday, July 8, 8/9c) the houseguests will be told that producers have slipped a mole into the group.
America will learn the impostor identity on July 15 during the first live episode and, through an interactive online process, fans will be able to suggest ways for the impostor to sabotage the players and disrupt the game.
So how does the Season 12 cast stack up?
TV Guide Magazine interviewed each of the players right before they went into the BB house. (Paolo Aviles, a 30 year old out of work real estate agent, later got cold feet and quit the show, dropping the head count to 13.)
We found no shortage of Type A show offs and high maintenance personalities among this year group, but they were virtually unanimous in their dislike of Season 11 prima donna Chima Simone, who was ejected from the show when she disobeyed Grodner repeated requests to go to the diary room and threw her pricey body mike into the swimming pool.
But opinions were split over last year surprise champ, sweetheart waitress Jordan Lloyd, who won the $500,000 grand prize without stabbing even one back.
Many in the BB12 cast admire how Jordan reinvented the game by playing it with honesty and decency, while others find her to be nave and clueless and feel she didn deserve the dough because she didn really earn it.
will be a lot of anti Jordan strategy coming into the house, which may or may not be wise, notes Grodner. we saw, the winner isn necessarily the one who plays the best game. It could be the one who pissed off the jury the least! our take on the BB12 players:

An odd bird, to say the least. Bitting is loaded with tics and mannerisms that either endear her to the other houseguests or annoy the holy crap out of She prone to overstatement and self homage: have put everything my whole entire life on the line to go into the BB house, Bitting says. lot of people know me bangle cartier replica in Philadelphia and they won know where I am.

This big, brawny bruiser is not fooling anybody, himself included. just a meat head jock so I need a brain to work with me in the BB house, says Elenburg. there be a doctor or lawyer or financial major I can team up with someone who will take me almost all the way to the end before I lie and stab him in the back. Living on a ranch has left Elenburg with a crazed fear of electric fences. His best friends are his brother and sister.

Oy vey, what a pain! know I be the smartest one in the house and I a triathlete biking, swimming, running so watch out! says Gordon, a divorced single dad and Orthodox Jew who has already convinced the BB producers to provide him with kosher slop. He plans to shave ficw years off his age, so that he mix better with the younger players. spend my day dealing with old Jewish people and their foot problems, he says. I can deal with them I have the patience to deal with anything in the house. Well, almost anything. Gordon told us he doesn want to share space with any Arabs.

LONDON A diamond and onyx panther bracelet owned by Wallis Simpson, whose love affair with King Edward VIII led to his abdication, sold for 4.5 million pounds ($7 million) Tuesday, an auction record both for a bracelet and a Cartier item.

Pilot error killed property heir
The heir apparent to the Hopper family property development empire may have been a victim of his own abilities when a low flight manoeuvre went "horribly wrong" at a Northland airstrip, a coroner has found.An inquest into the death of Stace Hopper, 27, project manager for the Marsden Cove development and eldest son copy handbag Hermes of Hopper Developments' chief executive, Hermes bag replica Leigh Hopper, was held at the Whangarei District Court yesterday.Stace Hopper died at Marsden Cove on March 12 last year after the plane he was flying crashed and was engulfed in flames.Coroner Brandt Shortland said pilot error had caused the crash."It was a low flying manoeuvre, for whatever reason Stace decided to do, that went horribly wrong."The court heard Stace Hopper was about to return to the Northshore Aeroclub and was carrying out preflight checks when colleague and friend Simon Kirkpatrick noticed one of the company's water tankers being driven on to the roughly constructed runway.Mr Kirkpatrick stopped the truck and parked his red van, with his son in the front seat, on the side of the strip.

He was even called to Australia to do jetski demonstrations. He got into flying at an early age and was into motorsport. That exuberance clearly led him to undertake a manoeuvre to be what I consider a high speed take off.

Job growth rebounded sharply last month with 211,000 positions added and the national unemployment rate down to near a 10 year low of 4.4 percent.

Markets were rattled overnight as crude initially stumbled further, its weekly decline close to 10 percent at one point, but comments from Saudi Arabia's OPEC governor Adeeb Al Aama helped put a floor under oil prices.
"There's an emerging consensus among participating countries on the need to extend the production agreement reached last year," the official told Reuters.
OPEC, Russia and other producers have agreed to curb production by 1.8 million barre1ls per day until June 30. OPEC ministers next meet on May 25.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 55.47 points, or 0.26 percent, to end at 21,006.94, the S 500 gained 9.77 points, or 0.41 percent, to 2,399.29 and the Nasdaq Composite added 25.42 points, or 0.42 percent, to 6,100.76.

Quincy Krosby, market strategist at Prudential Financial in Newark, New Jersey, said the slide in commodities would not necessarily drag other markets lower "as long as you accept the thesis that it is all about supply."
"But if you add a slowdown in China," she said, "it becomes a demand story. crude rose 2.09 percent to $46.47 per barrel and Brent was last at $49.45, up 2.21 percent on the day.
Copper rose 0.76 percent to $5,584.85 a tonne.

Analysts said traders are anticipating the euro will rise above a technical barrier of $1.10 if, as expected, centrist Emmanuel Macron defeats anti EU candidate Marine Le Pen.
The dollar index fell 0.22 percent.
The Japanese yen weakened 0.23 percent at 112.74 per dollar, while Sterling was last trading at $1.2980, up 0.01 percent on the day.

Raspberry Pi Based Wireless FM Microphone
A wireless microphone is a microphone without a physical cable connecting it directly to the sound recording or amplifying equipment with which it is associated. Also known as a radio microphone, it has a small, battery powered radio transmitter in the microphone body, which transmits the audio signal from the microphone by radio waves to a nearby receiver unit, which recovers the audio. The other audio equipment is connected to the receiver unit by cable. Wireless microphones are widely used in the entertainment industry, television broadcasting, and public speaking to allow public speakers, interviewers, performers, and entertainers to move about freely while using a microphone to amplify their voices.
There are many different standards, frequencies and transmission technologies used to replace the microphone's cable connection and make it into a wireless microphone. They can transmit, for example, in radio waves using UHF or VHF frequencies, FM, AM, or various digital modulation schemes. Some low cost (or specialist) models use infrared light. Infrared microphones require a direct line of sight between the microphone and the receiver, while costlier radio frequency models do not. ( wikipedia)
Once you have the Pi all set up, you'll be able to amplify your voice with any all in one radio or boombox. This could be useful for giving lectures or presentations where it might be hard to hear you and there isn't a professional Hermes Kelly handbag replica PA system. You could also use it in a van or other large vehicle to communicate over the car's speakers.
Here is the step by step instructions how raspberry pi can be used as a very good quality wireless microphone and can be used in class room, seminar, knock off Hermes bag so keep reading.
We know wireless microphone is actually a wireless radio transmitter. Microphone convert our voice (audio signal) into electrical signal and the transmitter transmit the signal as radio wave. Pi is acting as a FM transmitter in this project. So lets make our Pi FM transmitter. For the thing I want to thank the people over at Imperial College Robotics Society have a new way to use it as FM Transmitter. They designed a program that turns the Pi into an FM radio transmitter.
Our first work is to download the program in our cool Raspberry Pi. For that you must connected to the Internet first. Don't afraid, you only need the internet to download the software, you can use this afterwards without internet. OK, we are connected to out Raspberry Pi, now lets start downloading.
One important thing: Connect a 20 30 cm wire (jumper wire will work fine) to the GPIO PIN 4 (shown in figure above) of your Raspberry Pi to increase the range of your transmitter.
Procedure1.
2. Untar (unzip) the file you downloaded. You can transmit any frequency within FM range just typing the frequency instead of 100.0.
Step 4: Connecting USB Microphone to Raspberry Pi
The Raspberry Pi comes with a 3.5mm analogue stereo audio output, but no input. As a radio amateur I am interested in using the Raspberry Pi as microphone to do this I need an audio input. This can be achieved by connecting a USB audio device to your Raspberry Pi.
Make sure your Raspberry Pi is turned off and insert the USB audio device into one of the USB sockets on the Raspberry Pi, and then power up your Raspberry Pi. The USB audio device should be automatically installed. Go in SSH or LXTerminal window and type the following and press Enter
sudo apt get install alsa utilsYou may already have this package on your system, but entering this command won't do any harm even if you do. This will install a package of ALSA utilities if you don't already have them (ALSA stands for Advances Linux Sound Architecture).
Now, You should make sure that the USB audio device is being detected by both the hardware and software. Enter the following command and press enter. (image 6)

Step 5: Transmit imitation Hermes Kelly handbag Your Voice to Hermes fake bag FM Band
Our FM transmitter and Microphone setup is ready to transmit our voice. Here is the command you will use to start the broadcast. Each piece will be explained. Note that this command may need modified to work for your mic, just keep reading.
A wireless microphone is a microphone without a physical cable connecting it directly to the sound recording or amplifying equipment with which it is associated. Also known as a radio microphone, it has a small, battery powered radio transmitter in the microphone body, which transmits the audio signal from the microphone by radio waves to a nearby receiver unit, which recovers the audio. The other audio equipment is connected to the receiver unit by cable. Wireless microphones are widely used in the entertainment industry, television broadcasting, and public speaking to allow public speakers, interviewers, performers, and entertainers to move about freely while using a microphone to amplify their voices.
There are many different standards, frequencies and transmission technologies used to replace the microphone's cable connection and make it into a wireless microphone. They can transmit, for example, in radio waves using UHF or VHF frequencies, FM, AM, or various digital modulation schemes. Some low cost (or specialist) models use infrared light. Infrared microphones require a direct line of sight between the microphone and the receiver, while costlier radio frequency models do not. ( wikipedia)
Once you have the Pi all set up, you'll be able to amplify your voice with any all in one radio or boombox. This could be useful for giving lectures or presentations where it might be hard to hear you and there isn't a professional Hermes Kelly handbag replica PA system. You could also use it in a van or other large vehicle to communicate over the car's speakers.
Here is the step by step instructions how raspberry pi can be used as a very good quality wireless microphone and can be used in class room, seminar, knock off Hermes bag so keep reading.
We know wireless microphone is actually a wireless radio transmitter. Microphone convert our voice (audio signal) into electrical signal and the transmitter transmit the signal as radio wave. Pi is acting as a FM transmitter in this project. So lets make our Pi FM transmitter. For the thing I want to thank the people over at Imperial College Robotics Society have a new way to use it as FM Transmitter. They designed a program that turns the Pi into an FM radio transmitter.
Our first work is to download the program in our cool Raspberry Pi. For that you must connected to the Internet first. Don't afraid, you only need the internet to download the software, you can use this afterwards without internet. OK, we are connected to out Raspberry Pi, now lets start downloading.
One important thing: Connect a 20 30 cm wire (jumper wire will work fine) to the GPIO PIN 4 (shown in figure above) of your Raspberry Pi to increase the range of your transmitter.
Procedure1.
2. Untar (unzip) the file you downloaded. You can transmit any frequency within FM range just typing the frequency instead of 100.0.
Step 4: Connecting USB Microphone to Raspberry Pi
The Raspberry Pi comes with a 3.5mm analogue stereo audio output, but no input. As a radio amateur I am interested in using the Raspberry Pi as microphone to do this I need an audio input. This can be achieved by connecting a USB audio device to your Raspberry Pi.
Make sure your Raspberry Pi is turned off and insert the USB audio device into one of the USB sockets on the Raspberry Pi, and then power up your Raspberry Pi. The USB audio device should be automatically installed. Go in SSH or LXTerminal window and type the following and press Enter
sudo apt get install alsa utilsYou may already have this package on your system, but entering this command won't do any harm even if you do. This will install a package of ALSA utilities if you don't already have them (ALSA stands for Advances Linux Sound Architecture).
