Poor Brian honestly, I feel a little sorry for him. Also, this photo is incredible. ALSO, I hope you bought this. 5,49!!! This would be so ridiculously cheap in my currency if there was no currency conversion 😭
Philip Norman also wrote a biography of Mick Jagger which is on my to-buy-to-read list 😩 — even if I'm reading a few books at the same time.
went to the bookstore today to find some stuff to read for a project, and decided to drop by the music section.
I don’t think I could’ve created a more apt metaphor for Brian’s place in the history of The Rolling Stones even if I was paid too.

We’re celebrating July 4th with the ALAN Review article entitled “Where Are They Now? Remembering Our Most Popular Young Adult Authors.”
An article written by Don Gallo appeared recently in the Summer 2019 issue of The ALAN Review entitled “Where Are They Now? Remembering Our Most Popular Young Adult Authors.” Among those remembered were four authors with whom I worked very closely during my years at HarperCollins and, with Don Gallo's and the ALAN Review's permission, I'm including those remembrances on the Balkin Buddies blog:
Here they are in the order they appeared in the article:
Paul Zindel [Tied for first place with S.E. Hinton in 1988]*
Paul Zindel's death in March 2003 ended the brilliant career of a unique individual. Not only did he win a Pulitzer Prize for Drama and an Obie Award for Best American Play in 1970 for The Effect of Gamma Rays on Man-in-the-Moon Marigolds (1965), but he was also one of the earliest writers in the field of contemporary literature for young adults. The Pigman, published in 1968, is still one of the most well-known and widely taught novels in the genre. He followed The Pigman with My Darling, My Hamburger (1969); Pardon Me, You're Stepping on My Eyeball (1976), The Undertaker's Gone Bananas (1978); Harry and Hortense at Hormone High (1984); and other novels with attention-getting titles. His writing revealed how well he understood teenagers, believing that “adolescence is a time for problem-solving – for dealing with the awesome questions of self-identity, responsibility, authority, sex, love, God, and death” (Gallo, 1990, p. 228).
In addition to Gamma Rays, this versatile author wrote a number of other plays, including And Miss Reardon Drinks a Little (1971) and Ladies at the Alamo (1975), as well as a number of movies and television scripts that include Up the Sandbox (1972), starring Barbara Streisand; Mame (1974), starring Lucille Ball; Runaway Train (1985), starring Jon Voigt; Alice in Wonderland and Through the Looking-glass (1985), with a cast of 50 stars that included Red Buttons, Ringo Starr, Scott Baio, and Shelley Winters; Babes in Toyland (1986), starring Drew Barrymore and Keanu Reeves; and A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court (1989), starring Keshia Knight Pullman. During those years working in Hollywood, Zindel associated with numerous movie and television actors and became good friends with Walter Matthau who lived in the house next door.
In his later years, Zindel, always knowing what would appeal to teen readers, turned from realistic fiction to monster/horror books, such as The Doom Stone (1996), Rats (1999), and Night of the Bat (2001) – all of them filled with suspense and action and all selected as Quick Picks for Reluctant Young Adult Readers.
Zindel reveals a lot about himself in his 1987 autobiographical novel, The Amazing and Death-Defying Diary of Eugene Dingman, except that the fictional Eugene grows up in Bayone, New Jersey, while Paul grew up on Staten Island, New York. Of his teen years, Paul says bluntly: “I was an awkward freak.” More about Zindel's early life, family, and adventures can be found in his autobiography, The Pigman and Me (1992), which was named one of the 100 Best of the Best Books published for teenagers during the last part of the twentieth century. In 2002, the American Library Association bestowed upon Paul Zindel the Margaret A. Edwards Award for lifetime achievement, and later that same year, he was presented with the ALAN Award for his contributions to young adult literature.
M. E. Kerr [Tied for fourth place with Robert Cormier and Katherine Paterson in 1988]*
Writing under the pseudonym of M. E. Kerr, Marijane Meaker was one of the earliest authors to gain notoriety in the YA publishing world with Dinky Hocker Shoots Smack!, published in 1972. Among her 20 popular novels are Is That You, Miss Blue? (1975), I'll Love You When You're More Like Me (1977), Gentlehands (1978), Him She Loves? (1984), Night Kites (1986), the Fell series (1987, 1989, 1991), and Deliver Us from Evie (1990). Kerr has always chosen to write about differences in people, “understanding them....trying to make sense of it all, never losing sight of the power love lends.”
In an interview published in Teenreads, she explains her motives: “I was very much formed by books when I was young....I was a bookworm and a poetry lover. When I think of myself and what I would have liked to have found in books those many years ago, I remember being depressed by all the neatly tied-up, happy-ending stories, the abundance of winners, the themes of winning, solving, finding – when around me it didn't seem that easy. So I write with a different feeling when I write for young adults. I guess I write for myself at that age” (“M. E. Kerr).
Marijane Meaker began her career in publishing after she was unable to sell any of her stories to magazines. She presented herself as Ms. Meaker, a literary agent with six clients, and sent out her own work under various pseudonyms, male as well as female. One was a middle-aged female teacher writing true confessions (at $300 a story); another was a young college woman selling to magazines, such as Redbook and Ladies Home Journal; a third “author” told a story, titled “I Lost My Baby at a Pot Party,” about her child wandering from a house where a saleslady was pitching Teflon pots. Along the way, a Gold Medal Books editor convinced her to write a novel about sorority life, for which she earned $4,000 a book at a penny a word. This very resourceful writer also published two or three adult mysteries a year under the name of Vin Packer, and other novels were penned as Ann Aldrich and Laura Winston. Her books for children are published under the name Mary James. “A lot of my stories,” she says, “sold well enough for me to enjoy trips to Europe, an apartment off Fifth Avenue in New York City in the 90s, and a Fiat convertible.”
M.E. Kerr's novels for teens have won multiple awards, including a Christopher Award in 1978, a Golden Kite Award from the Society of Children's Book Writers and Illustrators in 1981, a California Young Readers Medal in 1992, the Margaret A. Edwards Award from the American Library Association in 1993 for her lifetime contribution to young adult literature, the Knickerbocker Award for Juvenile and Young Adult Literature in 1991, the ALAN Award in 2000, and the Golden Crown Literary Society Award for her groundbreaking works in the field of lesbian literature in 2013. In 1996, Long Island University awarded her an honorary doctorate.
A collection of her short stories for teens – dealing with dating, love, race, bigotry, homosexuality, self-love, and acceptance – titled Edge, was published in 2015. And Highsmith: A Romance of the 1950s, a memoir recounting Meaker's relationship with famous mystery writer Patricia Highsmith, was published in 2003. Still writing at the age of 91, Meaker recently completed a novel about gay life in New York City during the 1940s and how she became a literary agent for her own work. It's titled Remind Me, based on the lyrics of an old song from that time written by Jerome Kern and Dorothy Fields (1940): “Remind me / Not to find you so attractive / Remind me that the world is full of men.
Katherine Paterson [Tied for fourth place with Robert Cormier and M. E. Kerr in 1988]*
Born in Qing Jiang, China, in 1932, the middle daughter of missionary parents, Katherine Paterson has lived in a variety of places, from Tennessee, Virginia, Maryland, and New York City to China and Japan, where she was a Presbyterian missionary. She now lives in Montpelier, Vermont.
Her highly regarded novels include The Sign of the Chrysanthemum (1973), Of Nightingales That Weep (1974), Master Puppeteer (1975), and Rebels of the Heavenly Kingdom (1983), but she is known best for Bridge to Terabithia (1977), which won the Newbery Medal in 1978; The Great Gilly Hopkins (1978), which won the National Book Award in 1979; Jacob Have I Loved (1980), which won the Newbery Medal in 1981; and Park's Quest (1988), which made The Horn Book Fanfare Honor List in 1988. Published in 1996, Jip, His Story won the Parents' Choice Story Book Award and the Scott O'Dell Award for Historical Fiction in 1997. In 2006, Bread and Roses, Too won the Christopher Award and was a Bank Street Best Children's Book of the Year, a Notable Social Studies Trade Book for Young People, a Parents' Choice Gold Medal historical fiction book, and one of Voice of Youth Advocate's Top Fiction for Middle School Readers.
Paterson has also authored several autobiographical books about her writing, including Stories of My Life (2014), and is a coauthor of Consider the Lilies (Paterson & Paterson, 1986), a nonfiction book about various plants of the Bible that she wrote with her husband, John.
Over her long writing career, Paterson has also received a long list of awards for her body of work. Among them are the Kerlan Award from the University of Minnesota (1983), the ALAN Award (1987), the Hans Christian Andersen Medal for Writing (1998), the Astrid Lindgren Memorial Award (2006), the Laura Ingalls Wilder Award (2013), and the Massachusetts Reading Association Lifetime Award, along with writing awards from Germany, France, and Sweden. In 2000, she was declared A Living Legend by the Library of Congress, and for 2010-2011, Paterson was the US Ambassador for Young People's Literature. She is also the recipient of more than a dozen honorary degrees, including ones from Vermont College of Fine Arts, the University of Maryland, Hope College, and Washington and Lee University.
Paterson's latest novel is My Brigadista Year (2017), set in Cuba in 1961 during the literacy campaign that made Cuba a fully literate nation in one year.
Robert Lipsyte
The author of The Contender (1967) turned 80 years old this spring, as his ground-breaking novel passed the 50-year mark in print. Lipsyte is also the author of One Fat Summer (1977), Summer Rules (1981), The Brave (1991), The Chemo Kid (1992), The Chief (1993), and Raiders Night (2006) for teens, and for young readers, The Twinning Project (2012). Lipsyte's list of publications for teenagers isn't especially lengthy when compared to those of some authors who have been writing for the same length of time, but that's because writing books for and about teenagers is only one kind of work he has done especially well. He has also published a number of short stories, essays about sports issues, and biographies of several sports celebrities, such as Muhammad Ali, Jim Thorpe, and Michael Jordan, as well as several nonfiction books for adults, including Nigger, with Dick Gregory (1964), the African American satirist; Sportsworld (1975/2018); and Idols of the Game (1995). As the author of The Contender, one of the very first realistic novels about contemporary teenagers, Robert Lipsyte was honored with the Margaret A. Edwards Award by the American Library Association in 2001.
And that's not all. Among other things, Robert Lipsyte has been a highly respected columnist and prize-winning sports reporter for The New York Times, a correspondent for the CBS television program Sunday Morning with Charles Kuralt; the host of his own award-winning television interview program, The Eleventh Hour, on New York City's public television station, WNET Channel 13; author of a television documentary series about sports; and the Life (Part 2) series for PBS-TV on subjects of interest to older people. He is also the author of an entertaining memoir, titled Accidental Sportswriter (2011).
In addition to speaking at a lot of high schools, Lipsyte recently has been flying to North Carolina for a week at a time to teach at Wake Forest University, which he says he enjoys very much. He continues to write a monthly column, mostly on local politics, for his hometown weekly, The Shelter Island Reporter, which he says “gives me as much pleasure as the old Times' column.” He also occasionally writes about sports and politics for a site called Tomdispatch, which distributes to a batch of leftish publications like The Nation and The Guardian. If that's not enough, after his cameo on the O.J.: Made in America documentary film (Edelman, 2016) that won an Oscar, he gets called often to pontificate on various TV documentaries, most recently on one about Sonny Liston, three on Muhammad Ali (including one by Ken Burns), and another on that “hard year” 1968.
Meanwhile, this very busy author has been promoting the film, Measure of a Man (Scearce, 2018), starring Donald Sutherland, based on One Fat Summer, Lipsyte's 1977 novel about a bullied teen. View the trailer at https://trailers.apple.com/trailers/independent/measure-of-a-man/. “I have toyed with a new YA novel,” he claims, but where will he find the time?
*Based on the list of 169 authors' names Mr. Gallo sent to 41 present and past officers of ALAN in 1988, asking them “to identify the most important and popular YA fiction writers of the time and to add other names of writers they felt were as important.” Due to space limitations, he “limited this investigation to the top 30 authors included on that 1988 list.”

I hope you enjoyed this excerpt and get to read the entire article. Personally, I feel honored to have worked with such incredibly talented authors as well as with all the amazing people at ALAN.

2018 Movie Odyssey for-fun awards
With the 2018 Movie Odyssey in the books, but the 2018 Movie Odyssey Awards themselves delayed until next week (Sunday, January 6), here is the penultimate tradition for the year. This is a collection of for-fun honors and dishonors for the 250+ films that I saw in their entirety this calendar year.
Actor I wanted to smack most in the face: Sydney Greenstreet, The Woman in White (1948)
Because when I read the book earlier last year, there was nothing I wanted to do more than smack Count fucking Fosco in the face. Almost all of the dudes in Braveheart (1995) were the runners-up.
Best experience in a packed theater: A Quiet Place (2018)
Because everybody went along with the film - nobody dared make a noise. :P
Best fight scene AND sing-off: “Marching Through Georgia” v. “Dixie”, which precipitates into the saloon brawl, Dodge City (1939)
That post-War tension between Union and Confederate veterans, though...
Best film title: A River Runs Through It (1992)
It only really makes sense by the film’s closing scene.
Best individual cue from an original score: “Battle on the Ice” by Sergei Prokofiev, Alexander Nevsky (1938, Soviet Union)
Best last line, that, well, isn’t quite a last line: “Bolt the door, Maria,” from The Heiress (1949)
Best lyrics passage from an original song: “Charade”, music by Henry Mancini, lyrics by Johnny Mercer, Charade (1963)
Fate seemed to pull the strings; I turned and you were gone. While from the darkened wings, The music box played on.
Best moment: The ending to The Philadelphia Story (1940)
Best movie dad: Josh Hamilton, Eighth Grade (2018)
“...why would you think you make me sad?... Being your dad makes me so happy, Kayla. You don’t know. You don’t know how happy you make me. It’s beyond anything. I can’t describe it to you... It’s so easy to love you. It’s so easy to be proud of you. I really mean that.”
Best movie family member, non-parent: Bette Davis, All This, and Heaven Too (1940)
Best movie mom: Anne Revere as Mrs. Araminty Brown, National Velvet (1944)
“There’s a time for everything. There’s a time for having a horse and the Grand National; for being in love; having children, yes, even for dying. All in proper order at the proper time.”
Best one-line kill: This moment from The World Is Not Enough (1999)
Best on-screen friendship: Pete and Elliott, Pete’s Dragon(1977)
Best use of dog poop as a plot device: Roma (2018, Mexico)
And I think it should win Best Picture!
Best use of non-original music: this Cantonese cover of “Material Girl” from Crazy Rich Asians (2018)
Best use of testicles as a plot device: Pom Poko (1994, Japan)
It was that kind of year, kiddos!
Best vocal performance: Judy Garland singing “But Not For Me” from Girl Crazy (1943)
Biggest disappointment: Tarzan the Ape Man (1932)
Fans of the Johnny Weissmuller Tarzan didn’t tell me about the blackface and the exoticism of tropical Africa! C’mon, guys!
Biggest surprise: Charade (1963)
Was not expecting this movie to be as good as it was! Certainly, as many people write, it is the best Hitchcock movie that Hitchcock never made.
Biggest (unpleasant) surprise: That ending to Hereditary (2018)
One particular shot gave me the worst feeling ever - a sinking one - in a theater.
Eye-gouging un-achievement in animation: The Wacky World of Mother Goose (1967)
Forgot what happened an hour after I left the theater: Avengers: Infinity War (2018)
Greatest discovery (actor): Ganjirô Nakamura, Floating Weeds (1959, Japan)
Greatest discovery (actress): Elsie Fisher, Eighth Grade (2018)
Greatest discovery (director): Lee Chang-dong, Burning (2018, South Korea)
I had never seen any of his films before!
I seem to be the only Asian-American who despised this: Bao (2018 short)
I thought it let the mother - who was showing signs of emotionally abusive and possessive behavior - off very lightly, with nothing for her to learn.
Instant, shameless tearjerker: The ending to Homeward Bound: The Incredible Journey (1993)
Shadow? SHADOOOOWWWWW.....
Kick-ass moment: Mission: Impossible -- Fallout (2018)
The whole darn movie. Seriously.
Most awkward title drop: A View to a Kill (1985)
Just click the darn link! It’s the cherry on top to maybe one of the worst 007 villain performances ever, all thanks to Christopher Walken.
Most narrative (and literal) twists and turns: In Search of the Castaways (1962)
What the actual...?
Most stressful significant other: Alex Honnold, Free Solo (2018)
Not-so-prophetic film title: The NeverEnding Story (1984)
That movie flew by so quickly, I barely noticed there was any movie in it!
Presidential election of 2016 flashbacks warning: The One and Only, Genuine Original Family Band (1968)
As much as I adore Walter Brennan impugning “Reeeee-publicans”, anyone who loses the Electoral College despite winning the popular vote has got my sympathy.
Spends half the movie referring to themselves as their own name: The title song to Hans Christian Andersen (1952)
I get it already... your name is Hans Christian Andersen!
Tears. Ugly tears: Won’t You Be My Neighbor? (2018)
Do I have to explain any more? I was one of Mister Rogers’ neighbors!
Worst parent (I’m retiring this category after this year, because there’s no topping this): Thanos, Avengers: Infinity War
Worst use of non-original music: “California Girls” from A View to a Kill
Oh good god no.
The 2018 Movie Odyssey Awards will be up -- hopefully by the end of the night!

Taxonomic vandals and name thieves - the fake scientists in herpetology.
Taxonomic Vandals / Fake Scientists / Scientific Fraud (incomplete list) (last updated 15 May 2020) Bold and underlined (in original document only) are sole or senior authors and rest are secondary listed authors (so called “et al.”).

Travers Burhan Tjaturadi Nicolas Vidal S. P. Vijayakumar Philipp Wagner Van Wallach Perry L. Wood Jr Catharine E. Wüster Wolfgang Wüster Hussam Zaher Alexander Zorrilla Notes: 1/ All the above persons are listed as authors of papers that have engaged in the nefarious practice of taxonomic vandalism. 2/ Taxonomic vandalism is the illegal renaming of species, genera or family already named by other scientists and then, knowing these taxa have been properly named prior, promoting the illegal new names instead of the correct older names, along with simultaneously improperly trying to suppress or hide the correct legal names from others. 4/ Taxonomic vandalism is in breach of the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature, highly dishonest and antiscience. 5/ These acts of Taxonomic Vandalism have been mainly done at the instigation of serial law-breaker and certified animal abuser, Wolfgang Wüster of Wales. They are typically justified by the fake scientists/name thieves on the basis of a blog document called “Kaiser et al.” in fact written by Wüster himself. 6/ Taxonomic vandalism wastes time and money of legitimate scientists who have to fix the mess and deliberate confusion caused by the taxonomic vandals. 7/ Taxonomic vandals use fake online accounts and hijack databases and the like to infect them with their illegal names and to delete the correct scientific names to confuse scientists and the general public. Their actions and the damage they cause can be compared to the effects of a severe Coronavirus pandemic. 8/ Taxonomic vandalism is fake science and anti-science. Taxonomic Vandalism can only exist in the complete absence of peer review. 9/ Taxonomic vandalism has in the past caused species to be become extinct and is an evil law-breaking practice that needs to be stamped and the perpetrators exposed 10/ Many of the taxonomic vandals listed above are ostensibly government-funded scientists and are scamming research grants to conduct original research, when all they are doing is stealing work from other scientists and fraudulently rebadging it as original research. 11/ Research grants awarded to these fake scientists are illegally obtained and the fake scientists if caught would be liable to be charged for fraud, theft and potentially jailed. 12/ Taxonomic vandals like Wolfgang Wüster typically “author shop”, with the added names being listed on the paper as authors “to add credibility” to the document (Wüster’s exact words). Not all above listed co-authors would even be aware that their names have been associated with fake science, but in those cases they are reckless in not reading or checking properly the so-called “paper” they have put their name to.

Pallenberg and Richards had rejected Kenneth Anger's suggestion that they be married in a Satanic wedding ceremony, but she still draped garlands begged of garlic around the house on Cheyne Walk to ward off vampires and conjured spells of her own.

In ancient Assyria, the goddess Atargatis transformed herself into a mermaid out of shame for accidentally killing her human lover. Mermaids are sometimes associated with perilous events such as floods, storms, shipwrecks, and drownings. In other folk traditions (or sometimes within the same tradition), they can be benevolent or beneficent, bestowing boons or falling in love with humans. The male equivalent of the mermaid is the merman, also a familiar figure in folklore and heraldry. Although traditions about and sightings of mermen are less common than those of mermaids, they are generally assumed to co-exist with their female counterparts. The male and the female collectively are sometimes referred to as merfolk or merpeople. The conception of mermaids in the West may have been influenced by the Sirens of Greek mythology, which were originally half-birdlike, but came to be pictured as half-fishlike in the Christian era. Historical accounts of mermaids, such as those reported by Christopher Columbus during his exploration of the Caribbean, may have been sightings of manatees or similar aquatic mammals. While there is no evidence that mermaids exist outside folklore, reports of mermaid sightings continue to the present day. Mermaids have been a popular subject of art and literature in recent centuries, such as in Hans Christian Andersen's literary fairy tale "The Little Mermaid" (1836). They have subsequently been depicted in operas, paintings, books, comics, animation, and live action films (at Coney Island USA) https://www.instagram.com/p/CBYwBbChM_G/?igshid=19nsbskaplkzp

David Bowie and Mick Jagger chilling when they apparently "had a thing". In a book written by Christopher Andersen, Mick: The Wild Life and Mad Genius of Jagger, he says Bowie's wife Angie once found her husband in bed with Jagger. Ava Cherry, a backup singer, recalled some of their steamier moments together: "Even though I was in bed with them many times [during threesomes], I ended up just watching them have sex." https://www.instagram.com/p/Bxxx_bCC2uWDK_rVpi3Rqt9zBnBCb43rio7xpo0/?igshid=1d3zdxx28w0ga
