First the question: Can anyone point me to where to find the middle grade children's literature listserv, equivalent to Child_Lit but for older books? I can't seem to either remember the name or to figure out where to sign up. Come to think of it, I don't think I've re-subscribed to Child_Lit since I left Wizards--I had it go to a particular folder and only checked in on it from time to time, and nowadays I'm missing it.

At the request of reader Karen I., today’s “Feel Art Again” post features Edward St. John Gorey (1925-2000). The American illustrator and author was most well known for his rather macabre black and white illustrations, but considered himself an author first. The above work is a Gorey illustration from “Very Fine Clock” by Muriel Spark, one of some 60 works Gorey illustrated. (Gorey also wrote 100 of his own books.) 1. For 16 years of his life, Edward Gorey’s parents were not married. They diTop 30 Guantánamo Articles of 2008

Gilbert Adair, in the third of his Evadne Mount novels, changes tack and disposes with the cosy Christie model subverted successfully in The Act Of Roger Murgatroyd and less so in A Mysterious Affair Of Style, by opting to throw himself into the mix and tell the story of And Then There Was No One (2009) as a fictional memoir. Set in 2011, Adair has found himself at a literary festival in a Swiss town by the Reichenbach Falls, setting for Conan Doyle’s attempt at ridding himself of his popularJohnny Depp ‘Public Enemies’ Entertainment Weekly Cover, Photos January 9, 2009

Actor Bernie Hamilton died of cardiac arrest at the age of 80 Tuesday night at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, said his son, Raoul Hamilton. Hamilton was best known for his role on the 1970’s ABC police drama Starsky and Hutch playing the brusque, by-the-book Capt. Harold Dobey, a role that gave him wide recognition to this day, his son said. He also appeared in more than 20 films, including “The Young One,” “The Devil at 4 O’Clock,” “Synanon,” “The Swimmer,” “Walk the Walk” and “The OrganizaCelebs in Denim: Helena Bonham-Carter in Reconstructed Levi’s
I love Helena Bonham-Carter, fiancé of Tim Burton. Her fashion taste is eccentric and eclectic. Likewise, are her movie roles. She is Bellatrix Lestrange, the voice of the corpse bride, and coming next, she will be The Red Witch in the newest Alice in Wonderland. Sadly, it’s not set to open until March 2010. I’m so excited! That was my favorite childhood movie! Anyway, back to the dish, here is Helena with her chubby little baby, Nell, in her reconstructed and embellished Levi’s. (This was Helena Bonham Carter
Simply put Helena Bonham Carter seems to get a very strange range of roles. In the very late Nineties she played Marla Singer in Fight Club, a suicidal messed up character who has no value to her life. Since then she has hooked up with Tim Burton and worked on nearly all of his newer productions (usually along with Johnny Depp).
