Lynne Kiesling I’ve found a new read that I really enjoy, Fey Accompli. A wry play on words. She’s a very eloquent writer on a variety of topics that are of great interest to me, and she takes a very dynamic, forward looking approach. I’ll take one example: Monday’s post on Stella McCartney’s new line …
Lynne Kiesling Dear loyal and wonderful readers and commenters, Thank you for your continued and appreciated interaction. I know that my MT-Blacklist has gone OTT Puritan; I actually think my host has futzed around with my MT installation. So comments and trackbacks are not currently working.

Lynne Kiesling In our few hours of leisure time some of us got out to enjoy the lovely Warwickshire countryside, including a quick visit to Charlecote Park and Kenilworth Castle.

This page will have syllabi for my classes, copies of working papers, and other such things. I love the clean, elegant design that Lauren created. Unbeknownst to her, in developing the graphics for it she hit …

Lynne Kiesling Here’s a useful resource for you RSS feed junkies: a database of RSS feeds for newspapers in the US. Of the 1178 papers listed, only 85 (or 7.2%) of them have RSS feeds. It’s set up as a wiki, so if you know of RSS feeds for any papers listed there as not …
Your intrepid KP authors are up to the proverbial eyeballs in duties for the day jobs. Apologies for the lull. But this means interesting things are soon to come …
Lynne Kiesling I am finding unknown literary treasures in my perusals of web sources related to Pittsburgh, including this A-Z essay entitled “My Mysteries of Pittsburgh” from Stuart O’Nan, a writer.
