It has long been known that the knotted cords, called khipu, used by the Incas tracked numbers and could be used for counting like an abacus. Recently researchers are convinced that the knots are so much more. The different colors and types of knots are also indicative of a language, with the kno...

Bent double, like old beggars under sacks,
Knock-kneed, coughing like hags, we cursed through sludge,
Till on the haunting flares we turned our backs,

Just like It’s a Wonderful Life wasn’t originally intended to be a Christmas movie, this book is more about a fascinating mystery than it is about Christmas. But I like it that way, and since it’s set in winter, Christmas is featured, and it’s so cozy and homey that I can’t really be blamed for c...

Metal music is a genre that many say has seen it's Glory Years, and should be one with the worms. The genre has NOT had the commercial successes it once did in the '80's, though metal music is STILL on the market to this day.

Interview with Tana French
Dublin crime novelist Tana French has the kind of critical reviews that other writers would…well, die for. Her debut murder mystery,
In the Woods
, won rave reviews and multiple literary prizes upon its release in 2007. Since then, her books have tended to haunt the bestseller lists, on both sides of the pond, and for months at a time. British newspaper The Independent has dubbed French "The First Lady of Irish Crime," and The Washington Post says she is the most important crime novelist to emerge in the past ten years. ...more
