( FRAT SCREEN TV).Posted on ApApCategories Gary Larson Tags Bee home + Venus + heron kin crossword clue, Female surfer crossword clue, In the same place in footnotes crossword clue, Opposite of COD crossword clue, Work on galleys crossword clue 8 Comments on LA Times Crossword 21 Apr 19, Sunday This page shows answers to the clue Dinesen.Dinesen may be defined as Dinesen is a surname of Danish origin, (pen name of Baroness Karen Blixen), 18851962, Danish author and Isak Dinesen Danish writer who lived in Kenya for 19 years and is remembered for her writings about Africa (1885-1962). 17A: Halloween tricksters' route? ( FRIGHT PATH).We found 2 answers for Dinesen. The clue for 2 Down on todays New York Times crossword is as follows. Parker was living in a midtown New York hotel.
FRY BY NIGHT is clearly the marquee entry. I wondered if the initial F on each theme answer was significant somehow, but didn't come up with a good answer. I had trouble here and there throughout the grid, but it ultimately felt more like a romp than a struggle. Even when you're not having fun.Closing out the month with a tough one.
Never heard of the movie either. First, I've never heard of this Kate person (29A: Kate of "Ironclad" ( MARA)). Many other factors contributed to the confusion there.
(30A: Soften by soaking /30D: Summer escapes: Abbr.). I also thought MADEIRAS (39A: Sherry alternatives) might be CASSIRES (sp?) … something like that? … anyone? It was a big mess is what I'm saying.Only one other place that really made me tear my hair out and that was at the cross of MACERATE and MTS. Even with the A in place, I was at a loss.
With the SO in place, I thought the name would be something-SON, but then it just clicked somehow that the title sounded like a fable. 14A: "The Wolf and the Crane" author ( AESOP). I guess using an L in that square would have been too obvious.
Sure, we could listen to Frank Sinatra right here, but this lyric reminded me of a Keb' Mo' song, so let's listen to that instead. 58A: "_ no kick from Champagne": song lyric ( I GET). As you continue to solve puzzles, that will start happening more and more. This is another one that just clicked in from nowhere. 40A: Albany's father-in-law ( LEAR). Halladay is a pitcher for … the Phillies? … Yes, the Phillies.
You always have to be looking out for that. In this clue, the word "put" is in the past tense. 27D: Put one's foot down ( TROD). This word comes up occasionally in puzzles and I'm just about to the point where I can just accept it without wincing first. 4D: Dress finely, with "out" ( TOG).
By far the most popular ERNO in CrossWorld, though, is. There's a pianist/composer named Dohnanyi, a cosmetics maker named Laszlo and an architect named Goldfinger. Could have been just about anybody here as far as I knew.Crosswordese 101: There are a couple of ERNOs worth knowing for crossword purposes.

66A: It celebrates National Day on October 1 (and it's where the answers to starred clues were invented) ( CHINA).This is one of those puzzles that's not going to be a hit with speed solvers. 59A: *Beginner's piano piece ( CHOPSTICKS). 17A: *Dental checkup freebie ( TOOTHBRUSH). (MTS.) 31D: Little streams (RILLS) 32D: "The African Queen" co-screenwriter (AGEE) 33D: Instead of (THAN) 34D: Raison d'_ (ÊTRE) 36D: Trounces (LICKS) 37D: Cube creator Rubik (ERNO) 38D: Royal introductions (FANFARES) 42D: France-based jet maker (AIRBUS) 43D: Sound from Eeyore (BRAY) 44D: "Beats me!"

(OGLE) 53D: Branch of Islam (SHIA) 54D: Check (STEM) 56D: NFL ball carriers (FB'S) 57D: Fluoride, for one (ION).Theme: Made in China — Theme answers (and there are a lot of them!!) are all items that were invented in China.
The first was down in the Oklahoma/Texas area. There's a rumor that I even had a small smile on my face, but I don't know if that's true.I had two major trouble spots. The clouds parted and the choir sang and I was back at it with a new determination. The only theme answers I had come up with after my first run through were SILK and KITE and I definitely couldn't see what those two had to do with each other. Now, I am generally a speed solver (at least I attempt to be I may not be the speediest of speed solvers!), so I was sort of grudgingly making my way through this grid without really getting a foothold anywhere and actually starting to feel mildly annoyed.
Then there was the northwest. So there was a lot of erasing going on down there. And I had SNIPPY before SNAPPY (47D: Irritable).
Darn.) I particularly like the clues for FIREWORKS and CHOPSTICKS. And, I guess GUN POWDER too. (Except for TOOTHBRUSH, so that's a little bit of a bummer. But no.)Other than that, I just had spelling errors at CODY and ASTIN (COTY and ASTON) (65A: Maker of Kate Moss fragrances / 63A: John who played Gomez Addams) and bad guesses at PESO (I tried EURO) (33A: Its symbol is "$") and USNA (I thought he might have been a marine really who can remember back that far?) (57D: Oliver North's alma mater: Abbr.).The only other things I want to mention are that I love how all the theme answers are not clued as the literal China-invented items that they represent in the theme. You'd think I might have remembered it. That wasn't that long ago.
16A: Singer with the platinum 1992 album "The Celts" ( ENYA). The clue for ABLE (32A: Napoleon, before seeing Elba?) refers to the well-known palindrome ABLE WAS I ERE I SAW ELBA. And did you notice a lot of Ks in the grid? That's always good.One final thought, because I'm sure this will be confusing to somebody. I especially liked the aforementioned SKIP OUT along with YOU'RE UP and FLOOR LIMIT.
