This is the birthday of painter and book illustrator N.C. Wyeth (1882–1945).
It is also the birthday of actor Jeff Goldblum (born 1952), who had unforgettable roles in Buckaroo Banzai and the Jurassic Park and Independence Day films.

Today, because of out-of-state travel to attend a memorial service, we won’t be posting an entry for the SurvivalBlog non-fiction writing contest [1]. Round 97 ends on November 30th. We are currently running low on entries to post for the writing contest, so we’d greatly appreciate it if you would e-mail [2] us your entry.
Remember that there is a 1,500-word minimum, and that articles on practical “how-to” skills for survival have an advantage in the judging. – JWR
