88-Year-Old Author Harper Lee To Publish Her 2nd Book After To Kill A Mockingbird

Posted in: ,

Harper Lee is publishing a second book at 88, fifty-five years after "To Kill a Mockingbird," her first book was released. With the working title, "Go Set a Watchman," Harper Lee completed the manuscript in the 1950s and then it was set aside in favor of "To Kill a Mockingbird." In a statement released today by her publishers, the new books has been slated to be published July 14, and it follows Scout, the little girl of "Mockingbird," as an adult.

The manuscript was rediscovered last year, Lee, 88, said in a statement from her publisher, Harper.

"In the mid-1950s, I completed a novel called 'Go Set a Watchman'. It features the character known as Scout as an adult woman, and I thought it a pretty decent effort. My editor, who was taken by the flashbacks to Scout's childhood, persuaded me to write a novel (what became 'To Kill a Mockingbird') from the point of view of the young Scout.

Are These Really Sex Toys of the Ancient World [Photos]

Posted in: ,

Supposedly, these are sex toys of the ancient world, dug up with other implements and tools from way back when. Some of them do look like the male organ, but surely, they could've been used for something else, anything that needs a long handle with a knob at the end.

Well, Chris Wild - resident "Retronaut" on Mashable - is the one that dug up the series of photos and says they chronicle the history of the prehistoric sex toy. Or, as he says they've so euphemistically been dubbed, "ice-age batons." IMO, ice age homo sapiens may have had more on their mind, like survival, to be didling with themselves. And even if they are really sex toys, were the batons for men or women? What do you think?
