Unanswered: deadlock on DB2 7.1 with ETL-tool

A Change to UR should solve your deadlock problems! However, you may have some other problems. The biggest problem is that you may then be reading a "ghost" row, because transaction inserting this new row, did a rollback.
We have found that in our environment a rollback is such a rare feature, that for the DW-data this kind ghost rows are "acceptable risk". This risk may be lessened if you can avoid reading the most active data. But if you are reading non-active data - then no deadlocks should occur!

POLICE are seeking community-minded teenagers to sign up as cadets.
The Cleveland Police Cadet Programme is currently recruiting new cadets in Hartlepool, Stockton, Middlesbrough and Redcar.
Any youngster aged between 13 and 17 can apply to take one of the 25 cadet places for each district.
The groups are run by police officers, police community support officers, youth workers and volunteers and meet weekly.
Georgina Swanson, Cleveland Police cadet programme coordinator, said: "Cadets carry out regular community volunteering and get involved in a range of activities and projects; they recently produced a youth version of the Policing Plan and also river-mapped the River Tees for the emergency services.
The programme fosters a sense of responsibility for the communities in which they live, as well as a broader understanding of operational policing."
The scheme's aim is to give teenagers the chance to develop life skills while getting involved at the heart of their local communities and making new friends.
Any budding cadets who would like to apply for the programme should email their full name, address, date of birth and phone number to email@example.com or call 0845 2713872.

Implementing an effective cybersecurity management programCybersecurity is one of the most urgent topics in business today. It seems that every week, there is a new story about a company's data being breached with millions of customer records, payment card data, or lost trade secrets. The best-prepared companies are shifting their cybersecurity strategies from prevention, to implementing techniques that quickly detect breaches and limit the damage once a breach has been confirmed. What are the effective components of a modern cybersecurity management program? We consider five main components to improve cybersecurity effectiveness.
AICPA updates standards for accounting and review servicesThe American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) has rolled out the long-awaited update of its accounting and review standards. Statement on Standards for Accounting and Review Services (SSARS) No. 21, Statements on Standards for Accounting and Review Services: Clarification and Recodification, represents one of the AICPA's most significant revisions of its nonaudit standards since 1979. Among other things, the guidance creates a bright line between accounting (or preparation) services and reporting (compilation or review) services and lays out distinct requirements for each type of service. This article outlines what the clarified guidance means to those who use CPAs to perform nonaudit services — including reviews, compilations, and financial statement preparations — to report their historical and prospective financial results.

Featured Spa Equipment
Facial Beds
When you need a place your clients can lay back for a relaxing facial or massage, or just a way for them to stay comfortable for a tattoo, fix your shop up with a facial bed. All beds are upholstered in PVC vinyl and have removable face pillows. Depending on how much versatility you need, there are beds with removable arms, and adjustable sections for the upper and lower body. Keep it zen with a simple wood-framed portable massage table or go heavy-duty with a fully adjustable electric bed.
Facial Steamers
There are faces out there with tight pores and nasty blackheads, and a facial steamer is one of the best ways to fight that stubborn acne off. Facial steamers come in many shapes and sizes: Desktop steamers are great if you have a lot of counter space already, or if you'd like to be more mobile there are steamers on wheel stands. Many have ozone capabilities and come with timers and automatic shut offs. For that full facial cleansing, get a steamer with massage brush and magnifying lamp attachments.
Towel Warmers & Sterilizers
For the sake of your client's comfort and sanitation requirements, your spa needs a towel sterilizer to keep your linen warm and clean. A hot towel cabinet is a hot flash that will go easy on your counter space or if you have a higher demand, the double drawer cabinet takes on twice the workload. Towel warmers come with separate switches for the heat and the UV sterilizer lamps, and have built-in thermostats to prevent overheating.

The first in a series of images captured from my "Front Porch". This young fledgling and a nest-mate have become regular visitors to our front porch. We've gone so far as to put out seeds and water for them too. On one day we counted 9 doves feasting. During a heavy rain storm last week the 2 nestlings stood in front of our door on the porch keeping dry as they watched the rain fall. I almost felt like asking them to come in and watch TV until the rain stopped...but I knew that was foolish...or was it???
This image was captured on the first day that I saw this dove. It lacked fear, or at least it didn't show it. I was allowed to get very close.

Press Release: Senate Democratic Conference Release Minimum Wage Report And Push For Local Minimum Wage Option
Albany, NY - The Senate Democratic Conference today released a comprehensive report detailing the economic benefits New York State would receive from authorizing a minimum wage local option. The Senate Democratic Conference also urged for immediate passage of legislation that would allow local governments to raise the minimum wage within their municipalities.
"Minimum wage earning New Yorkers, despite their hard work and often having more than one job, continue to struggle to make ends meet," Democratic Conference Leader Andrea Stewart-Cousins said. "The Senate Majority's failure to adequately raise the state's minimum wage has hampered economic growth and severely limited the purchasing power of millions of families throughout our state. Local governments should be provided the authority to address the needs of their constituents, and I urge the Senate Republican/IDC Coalition to pass this common sense legislation immediately."
Senate Democratic Conference Deputy Leader Michael Gianaris said, "New York should be a national leader in setting a fair wage for our most vulnerable neighbors. Instead, we unacceptably lag behind other states and localities that provide fairer compensation for their workers. If the Senate Republican coalition cannot do better than providing half-loaf solutions, our local governments should be empowered to do it right."
The Senate Democratic Conference recognizes that local governments are better suited to address the minimum wage requirements of their constituents. Senate bill S.6516, introduced by Senate Democratic Conference Leader Andrea Stewart-Cousins, will enable local municipalities within the State of New York to raise the minimum wage within their jurisdictions. This legislation would allow local governments with higher costs of living to address wages within their localities without waiting for state action.
The report released by the Senate Democratic Conference demonstrated that raising the state's minimum wage will help stimulate economic activity and grow local economies in communities and regions throughout New York. The report included information provided by economic experts and minimum wage activists to conclusively illustrate that raising the minimum wage will strengthen New York's economy.
Ranking Member of the Senate Labor Committee, Senator José Peralta said, "Enabling local governments to better serve their constituents and address the costs of living within their communities is a common sense way to help all New Yorkers earn a living wage. I hope the Majority Coalition will listen to the voices of millions of New Yorkers demanding a living wage and will bring these good bills before the Senate Labor Committee, and to the Senate floor for a vote."
Senator Gustavo Rivera said, "New Yorkers are being kept in a cycle of poverty because our state's current minimum wage does not come close to covering the cost of living, for an individual, much less a family. New Yorkers deserved to be paid a livable wage that allows them to build a better future for themselves and their families. It is time to pass legislation to allow our cities and counties to be able to raise their minimum wage so that it is proportional to the cost of living of its residents."
Senator James Sanders Jr. said, "The rich are getting richer and the poor can't feed their families. No one who works a forty-hour week should live in poverty. In addition, in a state as large and diverse as New York, we must realize that the wage required to live in New York City may be different from the wage needed in Buffalo or in Watertown. The state minimum wage should be established at a level above the poverty line and local jurisdictions should be able to raise it above that if they deem it necessary to keep their citizens out of poverty."
Senator Daniel Squadron said, "Workers should earn a fair day's pay for a fair day's work. But the truth is, for millions of New Yorkers, hard work is met with poverty wages," said Senator Daniel Squadron. "That's why we must take an all-of-the-above approach when it comes to raising wages for workers who need it most. That includes raising the minimum wage, giving localities the ability to set wage standards above the state and federal minimums, and requiring chain retailers to pay their workers a living wage."
Valerie Ervin, Executive Director of the Center for Working Families and a Former Montgomery County, Maryland Council Member, said, "Maryland officials found that giving cities and counties the power to raise the minimum wage helped us address local needs and set a wage that reflects the cost of living of that particular city or country."
Tsedeye Gebreselassie, Staff Attorney for the National Employment Law Enforcement Project, said, "Yet another study has pointed out what New Yorkers already know: It is important to support raising wages because we have the highest level of income inequality in the country. This is why localities across the state should be allowed to set own minimum wage rate."
Erik Rettig, Northeast Outreach Manager for Small Business Majority (SBM), said, "Letting city and county authorities set and increase their local minimum wages to reflect the cost of living in their area will give New Yorkers more money to spend at small businesses. This will help create jobs and grow the economy."
The legislation and report advanced by the Senate Democrats build on the conference's long-time support and advocacy for raising the minimum wage. Enabling local governments to raise the minimum wage within their municipalities is a common sense way to address the issues concerning different costs of living in communities throughout New York State.
Senator Martin Malavé Dilan said, "The current minimum wage is out of step with the everyday financial realities of working New Yorkers. The widening gap has left an entire generation struggling to make ends meet, all the while caring for the younger generation doomed to the same cycle. A real wage, indexed, with the flexibility for localities to adjust wages in accordance with local markets, is the only real light at the end of the tunnel for New York's working families.
Senator Brad Hoylman said, "A dollar in New York City just doesn't go as far as it does in other parts of the state. For example, New York City's cost of living is 83% more than Buffalo, 91% more than Syracuse, and 92% more than Binghamton. Full-time low wage workers are still left unable to provide for their families and are often times forced to choose between basic necessities like food and rent. It's time to allow cities like New York to account for these regional differences by allowing them to have direct control over their minimum wages and equitably provide for their low wage workers."
Senator Tim Kennedy said, "This is a country and a state where we've always said, if you work hard and play by the rules, you can achieve the American Dream. With so many families struggling with low and stagnant wages, we must continue our fight for fair wages and good-paying jobs. A growing number of New Yorkers are working low-wage jobs these days – students working minimum-wage jobs to cover tuition costs, senior citizens trying to supplement depleted retirement savings, single parents relying on low-wage employment to care for children. Now more than ever, we need to ramp up our efforts to ensure working families have the opportunity to earn wages that will help them cover the constantly rising costs of raising a family."
Senator Liz Krueger said, "These proposals make good economic sense at the same time as they advance the cause of social justice. New York is a large, diverse state with major cost-of-living differences between regions. Our minimum wage is increasingly lagging behind other states, and it should be higher across the board -- but at the same time, our more expensive cities should be allowed to act to guarantee workers a wage they can live on. This is only one of a huge range of issues where Albany politicians and bureaucrats must stop tying local governments' hands."

On Tuesday when Williams lost consciousness and fell off on a New York subway, Orlando leaped onto the tracks.
Both Orlando and Williams escaped with minor injuries. Onlookers said that Orlando was barking frantically in a bid to save William from falling off the platform.
Williams lost consciousness and fell off on a New York subway
William, who lost consciousness, landed on the tracks. Following this, Orlando jumped onto the tracks to save his owner by licking his face so that he could move away from the tracks and not be hit by an approaching train.
However the witnesses called the attention of the motorman who was on-board the train and he slowed down as it approached them.
William was then taken to a hospital where he is currently being treated for the injuries. However he said that he could not pay for a non-working dog. Orlando was provided to William by an organisation named Guiding Eyes.
Organisations like Guiding Eyes provide working dogs for free but cannot pay for retired dogs.
But as soon as William's story got out, help poured in from many people, who donated money and offered other assistance so that William could keep Orlando with him.
Williams is yet to take a decision on whether he wants to keep Orlando or not.

Three momentous events to report;
Firstly: A Druid's Herbal of Sacred Tree Medicine is finally here! I got my first copies this week (week of June 9). Check it out in the "published works" section of my website!
Secondly: it appears that Ireland has possibly put a major brake on the creation of the EU. One reason for the NO vote was the continuing disappointment over the destruction of the Tara-Skryne Valley. Why didn't the EU step in to preserve ancient heritage?
One more thing:
By now most of Pagandom is aware of the disturbing statement made by Kathy
Lee Gifford on the Today Show that described us as 'nasty bad Pagans'. There
has been a concerted effort to contact the show's sponsors, (the sponsor of that TODAY Show segment was Samsung. Its Chairman is Kun-Hee Lee; the President of its subsidiary, Samsung Electronics America Inc., is Dong-Jim Oh. Visit the Samsung website to see a popup form you can write a comment on) and to get messages to The Today show.
If any other religion had been insulted in this way Gifford would have been
sacked. But since we are a minority faith she apparently will get away with
the slur on our faith.
The good news is that Pagans are working together to address this issue and
there are things that every one of us can do
- View the You Tube video clip of the offending statement
- view Giffords wholly inadequate "apology" on this You Tube clip
- Email the Today Show with a well crafted and respectful request thatGifford issue a public apology to the Pagan community.
- Visit the petition site and post your own thoughtful comment
- write a physical letter and mail it to:
The Today Show at NBC
30 Rockefeller Plaza
New York, NY 10112
What I am personally doing, and I urge others to do the same, is to do EACH
of these things and then every few days print out a few pages of comments
from the petition site, add your own letter (be sure to ask for a response),
and then mail the packet to the Today Show.
It is long past the time when our religion should be treated this way by the
general public. By all accounts there are almost a million of us out there;
Druids, Wiccans, Witches, Heathens, Asatruar, Strega, and many others. We
deserve the same respect that any world religion would hope to receive.

Imagine this: you're standing atop a scraggy cliff line with little to no coverage to launch off of. Below you the landing is a good 25 feet away into an endless and near-perfect chute. Your photographer Richard Walch and fellow travelers Travis Yamada, Chris Engelsman, and Oliver Holzmann are hanging back, waist-deep in seemingly bottomless powder.
A couple snowballs mark your landing. Puff-nothing but a sweet 40-degree, three-foot-deep landing zone. Yes, you think you're clear for takeoff. Pop-a picture-perfect method (for my old-school standards, anyway) to … unexpected madness. Unknown to you, in the middle of the chute lies a massive ice blister, turning the supposedly deep powder chute into a 25-foot air-to-sheet-ice reception.The exploding, bone-crushing, and numbing thud of your left knee hitting your face sinks deeply into your inner senses. The impact shatters every blood vessel in your nose, breaking it into unimaginable pieces, tears the sinews from under your lips out, and destroys your left eye's vision entirely.
As you sit there shocked, seeing pure blackness on one side, and nodding to your buddies that it's all cool and they should carry on shooting, you notice the massive flood of blood that is completely engulfing your body, and the entire area you are slouched in. The bleeding carries on, not stopping for 40 hours until your face and eyes are swollen from internally soaking up the remaining blood loss.
The location: Russia. Thousands of miles from home, no immediate services, rough ex-army transportation, and bizarre hospital practices. An eight-hour charter flight to Germany, customs agents who just don't care, three hours of autobahn travel, immense pain, a snowy four-hour one-eyed drive home alone with a face that looked worse than any injury sustained in a gang brawl. And yes, finally, "Hi honey, I'm home."-Dani Kiwi Meier
Over the last decade, the number of snowboarders increased from one-million to almost five-million worldwide, and with it grew the incidences of head injuries. The head is one of the most vulnerable parts of the body; almost nine to fourteen percent of all injuries are head injuries. In the U.S., the estimated number of head injuries due to snowboarding-related accidents increased by more than five times, from 1,000 in 1993 to 5,200 in 1997. The leading cause of head and neck injuries is falling and hitting the surface, followed by hitting objects and collisions.
What kinds of head injuries are there?
Most head injuries are not severe or life-threatening. Luckily, there have only been a few deaths reported. The most common injuries are cuts around the skull. Concussions due to induced forces are quite frequent as well, and those can lead to unconsciousness directly after the impact. Head injuries can also be associated with an additional injury to the neck.
What do I do in case of a head injury?
Snowboarders who were or are at all unconscious after a fall need immediate medical attention. There is often a memory loss as to how the injury occurred, and depending on how severe the impact was, they should remain under medical supervision for at least 24 hours for their own safety. Note: Never move a snowboarder without competent medical help after a fall if they complain about pain in the neck combined with tingling or numbness of the arms or legs. Don't forget to keep someone who is injured warm until help arrives.
Due to the large supply of blood in the head, heavy bleeding can occur after a cut. Bleeding should be addressed with immediate compression and some surgical stitches in the emergency room of the nearest hospital. A direct impact to the face that results in large swellings should always be investigated for fractures. For swellings, the application of ice is still the best method. Note: Never put ice directly on the skin or on top of open wounds.
How can I avoid head injuries?
Almost a quarter of all injuries occur when snowboarders go off aa jump or hit a bump. So first of all, don't overestimate your riding capabilities. Always clear the space where you want to land before you hit the jump. Also, always be aware of the people next to you on the slopes to avoid collisions. Less than five percent of all snowboarders use head protection such as helmets.
Is the use of helmets beneficial?
Head-protection gear such as helmets create a hard shell around your skull so that injuries caused by sharp or pointy objects meeting with the top of the head, back of the head, forehead, or the side of the head above the ear can be avoided. According to recent studies, helmets protect against about 44 percent of all head injuries. As already known from bicycle helmets, they can also absorb part of the impact from forces to the head. Even if the use of head protection does not eliminate all head injuries, almost half of them can be avoided. Helmets are recommended in the halfpipe, especially when trying difficult or new tricks and during competition. Smart freeriders should also use them.
What kind of helmet should I use?
Helmet designs vary. Helmets should not cover your ears, which would inhibit hearing and orientation. They should allow a wide range of peripheral vision and provide sufficient coverage to the back of your head without compromising your neck movements. Features of a good helmet include a well-padded liner for maximum shock absorption, a good fit, warmth, and adjustable ventilation systems. A helmet that doesn't fit well can be dangerous. Also, always close your helmet fixation correctly. Kiwi won't forget that Russian experience, and we're all glad something more serious didn't happen.

"How do you squeeze the moisture out of apples? I know they are grated, but how. Do you wrap them in a towel a squeeze the towel? Maybe it is the picture, but it really has kind of an off color to it. Is that the grated apples in the middle cause they don't look right."
"I would eat these for breakfast. Seriously. I eat sausage and cheese biscuits for breakfast. I will go with Edward and read through the comments. There are good ideas. I think if you want more bread taste- go with the 3 cups called for in the recipe. If you want more meat and cheese taste- go with 2 cups suggested by many commenters."
"This is like a combination of an apple pie and a caramel apple. It is the best of both worlds. Cream cheese pie crust is really good so I knew this crust and topping had to be good. Make sure you have something to drink so all that gooey caramel won't stick to your teeth. But, if it does, it will be worth it. This recipe is a keeper."

Back in February I'd seen a couple of really beautiful wedding gifts using jars by Desiree at 36th Ave, check her's out here and here, they are just gorgeous. Now I look again, mine are nothing like Desiree's masterpieces. I improvised and used what I had, let's just say I was "inspired by" rather than actually attempting to recreate!
Really what I did here was a tweak of the Gold Heart Pot I made for my makeup brushes, I did this at the same time using mostly the same materials.
To make one you need:
- A jar with a lid. Mine was just an old chocolate spread jar. Another time I would use a bigger jar, it was hard to fit everything in here that I wanted to
- Gold spray paint
- A sticker, mine was a heart
- Washi tape or low tack masking tape
- Paper
- Ribbon or thread
- A button with a shank
- Strong glue - mine was superglue
- Small bits and pieces you might need on your wedding day

4-H Traditions
The 4-H Clover Emblem and Pledge Explained
The first 4-H emblem was a three-leaf clover, introduced sometime between 1907 and 1908. The three "H's" represented head, heart and hands. In 1911, at a meeting of club leaders in Washington, a fourth "H" representing health was added and the current 4-H four-leaf clover emblem was approved. It is protected by the U.S. Congress. More information on Clover logo usage is available.
The 4-H pledge was worded by Otis Hall, Kansas state 4-H leader. It was approved at the first National 4-H Club Camp in 1927 in Washington, D.C. The words "my world" were added to the pledge in 1973. Their addition is the only change ever made to the 4-H pledge.
- HEAD stands for clearer thinking and decision-making. Knowledge that is useful throughout life.
- HEART stands for greater loyalty, strong personal values, positive self concept, concern for others.
- HANDS stands for larger service, workforce preparedness, useful skills, science and technology literacy.
- HEALTH stands for better living, healthy lifestyles.
4-H Pledge
I pledge….
my Head to clearer thinking,
my Heart to greater loyalty,
my Hands to larger service,
my Health to better living.
For my Club, my community, my country, and my world.
4-H Motto
To make the best better.

The Kings have decided against buying out the contract of center Mike Richards, according to General Manager Dean Lombardi.
Richards, who has been a key factor in the Kings' two Stanley Cup wins in the last three seasons, is in the middle of a 12-year contract worth $69 million. The agreement was signed when Richards was with the Philadelphia Flyers. A compliance buyout would have helped the Kings in terms of salary-cap relief.
But Lombardi's loyalty to his players runs deep and he heard what he needed to hear from Richards in meetings this week. Richards greatly underperformed in the second half of the regular season and was dropped to the fourth line.
"The biggest thing in the meeting with Michael - the important thing - is that he realized he's going to have to make some adjustments in his offseason training," Lombardi said on Friday in an interview with The Times.
"He's 29. In his prime. So it's not as though the dropoff should be related to age. But players need to realize when you start getting 27, 28 -- you can't train, can't prepare like you use to when you were 22 or 23."
Richards, Lombardi said, was candid about his shortcomings. Richards had 11 goals and 41 points in 82 games in the regular season and was a far better player in the postseason run.
Lombardi's loyalty and the candor of Richards were parts of the equation. And Richards has that intangible factor, a heart-and-soul player who has won at every level, and is adept at guiding the mood of the dressing room.
"He was very candid," Lombardi said. "The most important thing is he realized he wasn't anywhere near where he is capable of being. If he's telling you, 'Well, I was good.' Then you've got a big problem. If he's not able to critique himself, then we're wasting our time.
"But he freely admitted that it was nowhere near where he was capable, and the root is not age or injury. It starts with the understanding that I've got to prepare like a 28- or 29-year-old, not a 22-year-old.
"As long as he looked me in the eye and made that promise that he would make the commitment in the offseason …Essentially, I have to trust him. Once that deadline goes, we're locked in."

Published: Tuesday 14th April 2015 by The News Editor
Mercedes motorsport boss Toto Wolff has revealed the team may have to make "an unpopular call" for their drivers in light of Ferrari's revival this season.
Following the first three grands prix of the new Formula One season it is clear Mercedes will not have it all their own way as Ferrari appear poised to push them all the way.
Wolff's remark also comes in the wake of Nico Rosberg's moaning over the team radio during Sunday's Chinese Grand Prix about how slow team-mate Lewis Hamilton was driving.
Rosberg then turned on Hamilton during the post-race press conference, accusing the world champion of being selfish.
Hamilton insisted he was merely looking after his tyres to ensure they lasted during the crucial middle stint of the race, with the 30-year-old exonerated of any wrongdoing by Wolff and Mercedes non-executive chairman Niki Lauda.
But Wolff has confirmed that with pressure from Ferrari, rather than his drivers simply allowed to fight it out between themselves as was the case last season, there may be decisions taken on the pit wall during a race that could anger one or the other.
"It may be if we are risking a win against Ferrari we would make an unpopular call, not to freeze everything, but manage them more," Wolff said.
"Our number one objective, which is what we have decided with the drivers, is we have a big responsibility to the team and the brand.
"It's not just about those two guys – it's about the thousand people working on those cars.
"If it gets to the point where we have to interfere between the two of them because we risk losing a race win, then we would do that.
"We don't have the gap that we did last year where we can just let them push each other until the very end. We need to manage the gaps."
Suggested to Wolff he was risking Mercedes' DNA as racers – something he has insisted all along would never be tampered with – he replied: "It depends on what you do.
"We have seen in the past a clear team order that has stated 'you are not allowed to overtake' even though the driver behind may be faster, for example.
"This is not something I can honestly see happening.
"I can understand why teams in the past have done it because they were under threat of losing a championship.
"Knock on wood, we haven't been in that situation. But managing the situation more, without making such a drastic call, is a possibility now."

Geoff Page reviews Other Summers, by Stephen Edgar (transcript available)
Now to the work of Sydney poet Stephen Edgar. Here's poetry reviewer Geoff Page with a look at Stephen's latest collection Other Summers. And he starts with a reading of one of the poems ...
The poem 'Living Colours' is one of the most memorable in Stephen Edgar's new collection, Other Summers. It has many of his trademarks but not all of them. We have the elaborate rhyme scheme, not always apparent at first glance (abcdbacd, to be exact). We have the elaborate description, partly generated by the rhyme scheme. We also have some striking visuals, such as prenatal monochrome and party-coloured kitsch, but this time the scene is far less innocent than the gently descriptive pieces that open and close the book.
In 'Living Colour' we are in what the Germans thought of at the time as 'Hitler weather', the flawless blue / of mid-July in nineteen thirty-nine. Having watched newsreels from this period many times, we tend to view it as Edgar describes it: All black and white, the greys of death and dolour. That, however, is not how the Nazi enthusiasts were experiencing it at the time. After the humiliation of the Versailles treaty and the hyper-inflation of 1920s, they were infatuated with The gilded eagles, banners, fancy dress, / Teutonic warriors and virgins with / Blond streaming hair ... Unlike us, with our later knowledge, they were unaware (or chose to be unaware) of the corpses piled like clothing and the gas-blue air that waited in the near future.
Now, with his sixth book, Stephen Edgar has emerged as one of the most accomplished Australian poets of his generation. To judge from the imprimaturs on the back of Other Summers, he also has considerable support in the UK and the US as well. His work is now good enough to start forcing one to comparisons which may or may not be unfair. In his love for widely-varied stanza forms (and the tone in some of his love poetry) Edgar reminds one of John Donne. In his leisurely, closely-rhymed-and-metred considerations of modern life he prompts comparison with Philip Larkin. With his erudition, his love of the pentameter - and his familiarity with classical myth etc, he suggests AD Hope. These are heady names to play with but it's a reflection of Edgar's skill that one feels compelled to raise them.
And defer them perhaps. Better to look at the way Edgar's poems actually work - and perhaps the pluses and minuses of rhyme as used in the vast majority of poems here. There has been something of a return to rhyme in Australian poetry in the past decade or two and Stephen Edgar, along with Peter Kocan, Jamie Grant and the late Philip Hodgins, has been at its forefront. As used by Edgar, the elaborate rhyme schemes (demonstrated in 'Living Colour', for instance) tend to slow the pace, encourage imaginative elaboration of material, set up a complex music throughout - and, quite often, hold the reader at a certain distance. Sometimes the emotions dealt with by the poet were felt, we suspect, quite viscerally - but with the rhyme and complicated stanza forms being so important, the impact of these emotions on the reader can sometimes be muted.
This is not a problem where the material, as in 'Living Colours', is inherently emotional. Nor is it a problem with Edgar's fine collection of love poems in the sequence called 'Consume My Heart Away'. These are pretty much as good as anything in the 800-year-old history of love poetry in English. They are beautifully poised, extraordinarily well-crafted and yet able to suggest the intensity of the human being who enjoyed and endured the experiences. A couple of stanzas from 'Another Country' might help to give the flavour:
She said she loved being a woman.
Her skin pressed mine, my face her hair.
And I a man? Just being human
Can sometimes be too much to bear:
The hands remember what they held,
The tongue recalls the salt-sweet skin.
Who was it said that 'her hair smelled
Like a country I could be happy in?
Something of these same qualities emerges in 'Pictures of Love', another love sequence towards the end of the book.
As might be expected from someone who uses rhyme and metre so fluently, there is a considerable elegaic flavour to Edgar's book. Even the love poems deal with the ghost of the lover, as it were. Many other poems deal with lost moments in time - in childhood or in earlier relationships, including those with his parents, it would seem, as in the poems 'The Shadowboard' and 'Im Sommerwind' (version 3 - there are three poems in the book with this title).
The elegaic mood is the one which suits Edgar best. There are certainly moments of humour, irony and social satire, for example in 'Permaculture', but they don't last long. More typically, the irony is subsumed within the descriptive process, adding to the overall tone and, in effect, holding the reader a little further off. A good sense of this can be felt perhaps in the first stanza of 'The Sounds of Summer':
The cicadas, as though never here, are gone.
A silence that was always immanent
Slides back. The wide bay
Aches with heat. Remote yachts balance on
This fashioning of motion which the water,
Insensible as yesterday,
Makes of its swashy foibles while, remoter,
A sheen rides mantled on its vanishment.
That last line is particularly typical of Edgar: a perfect iambic pentameter; an unusual word, vanishment, to rhyme with another unusual word, immanent - and an almost-polished visual effect, as suggested by the word sheen. One feels too how the rhyme scheme (abcadcdb) contributed to the elaboration of the whole stanza, without quite forcing the poet to say anything he didn't really want to say - even though, at one level, Edgar seems to be talking about not much more than that the cicadas have gone and the boats are out on sunlit water.
So, to return to those earlier comparisons with Donne, Larkin and Hope. Maybe it's a bit early to be making them. Certainly there is something of Donne's metaphysical playfulness in Edgar's work, his love of elaboration almost for its own sake. Edgar's social and spiritual vision is not nearly as bleak as Larkin's but certainly sad-enough and well-made-enough to remind you of it.
As for the Hope comparison, it may be sufficient to say that Edgar is probably the first Australian poet since Hope to get from the iambic pentameter the sonorous authority Hope always achieved in his best poems, the sense that we need not be hurried here and that poets should employ the full range of their learning and vocabulary - not sell themselves or their readers short.
For those who like their poetry well-metred and well-rhymed Other Summers is an essential book. So is it too, however, for those who argue that rhyme has no place in modern poetry. They need to see how eloquently they have lost the argument.

Here is the definitive biography of Satchel Paige, an all-American story of struggle and triumph about the greatest pitcher to ever throw a baseball.In his hometown streets of Mobile, Alabama, Satchel Paige fired rocks with enough power and precision to bring down a bird or a rival gang member. In the Negro Leagues he fine-tuned a pitch so fast that catchers complained it set their mitts on fire. After a young Joe DiMaggio managed a scratch a single off of him, a Yankees scout wired his bosses, "DiMaggio all we hoped he'd be. Hit Satch one for four."But racial discrimination kept the Yankees and every other big-league team from signing Paige until he was 42, when he was voted Rookie of the Year. While many dismissed him as a Stepin Fetchit, if not an Uncle Tom, this book makes clear that Paige was something else entirely, a quiet subversive, defying both Uncle Tom and Jim Crow. He pitched so spectacularly that white writers and fans turned out to watch black baseball. He drew the spotlight first to himself, then to his all-black Kansas City Monarchs, and inevitably to the Monarch's rookie second baseman Jackie Robinson. In the process, Satchel, even more than Jackie, opened the door for African Americans to the national pastime and forever changed his sport and this nation.More
"Having known Satchel when I was a young ballplayer, I'm reminded of the man who took over the game with both his superior pitching and his dynamic personality. This book is a must-read that captures the essence of one of the greatest legends in baseball history, Satchel Paige. (Dusty Baker, Manager, Cincinnati Reds)

Good story about a baseball icon.
I would recommend this title to a friend. I found it very insightful into the life of a great baseball player.
Yes, I would have loved to listen to this in one sitting, but I just don't have that kind of time.
There were a few places where some of the audio was missing, the editing was bad, and there were a few repeated lines. It looks like this book has been out for a few years and I was surprised that they haven't corrected these issues yet.

The details of Gizmo Project's new All Calls Free program are out this morning, whereas last night when Andy Abramson posted his piece, they were offline. This is MCI's Friends and Family plan in the age of VoIP calling. Essentially, when you call someone else who is an active Gizmo user on any number that that person has registered with Gizmo, the call is free (in the countries where the plan is available).
But wait! Aren't Skype calls free (in North America) to all calling destinations? Why not just keep using Skype?
Well, just like the old old world of MCI vs AT&T, the devil's in the details of a calling plan.
During the current promotion, Skype is free… nada…. zilch… zip for all calls originating from accounts in the US and Canada and terminating in the US and Canada. At iotum, Steve Lecomte and Julien Raynal, who spend lots of time on the phone, are using Skype for business calls. Integrated with the Outlook Toolbar, it's a natural, since most of our calls are North American. On weekends in July, calls are also free to the UK, Japan, and Mexico — any phone.
Gizmo Project is free for calling, between Gizmo users, to any phone in Canada, China, Cyprus, Guam, Hong Kong, Malawi, Malaysia, Puerto Rico, Russia, Saipan, San Marino, Singapore, South Korea, Thailand, United States, US Virgin Islands, Vatican City. In addition, you can make a call to any landline phone in these countries, provided that other user is also a Gizmo user: Argentina, Australia, Austria, Belgium, Brazil, Bulgaria, Chile, Croatia, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, French Antilles, Germany, Gibraltar, Greece, Guadeloupe, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Japan, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, Monaco, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Panama, Peru, Poland, Portugal, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Taiwan, Turkey, United Kingdom, Venezuela, and Zambia.
If you primarily call North American numbers, for now Skype is a better offering. It's really free. It may not always be, since free calling is supposed to be a promotion.  If you make lots of calls overseas, depending on where you call, Gizmo may be a better offering (if you can get your friends and family to sign up for it). And, if you're not North American, Gizmo gives you free calling to 60 countries (when you sign up the recipients of those calls as Gizmo users too), which Skype doesn't.
Reading between the tea leaves leaves you with the impression that Gizmo has been hard hit by Skype's free calling throughout North America promotion. Certainly I've used it less. However, because they're not backed by EBay's deep pockets, they're looking for an offer that will accentuate the word of mouth growth of their service, without a dramatic impact to the pocket book. The place where Skype is most vulnerable at the moment is internationally, where they haven't extended the same offers that they have in North America. Ergo, push there.
My take: it's an interesting chess move, rather than a definitive strategy.  Here in North America, it's simply easier for me to call the people I need to reach on Skype, than it is to convince those same people to buy a Gizmo account. Most of the time I don't bother with Skype, even. In our home, we've spent about $30 between last October and March on long distance using a $.02 plan from NuFone. On average, we use about 250 minutes per month of LD calling friends and family. My monthly cost is $5 on NuFone, free on Skype, and would be $2.50 on Gizmo, assuming that I couldn't get any of my friends or family to switch. It's not even two Starbucks latté's. I'm not sure price is an issue any more.

Situated on a peninsula and flanked by two stretches of golden beach, the pretty holiday resort town of Side is a jumble of old and new, with an extensive range of tourist accommodation, shops, late-night bars and restaurants mixed in among the ruins of the ancient city. In the centre of town is the magnificent 2nd-century theatre with beautiful views towards the sea, and the remains of the Roman Baths houses an impressive collection of artefacts.
Resort Rating
Side is full of antique ruins, but the Aspendos theatre and Apollon Temple are the most popular. The harbour is full of interesting boat tours and activities, including trips around Side or to neighbouring towns. The turtles can be visited on a daily tour, and the white sand beaches provide activities like scuba diving, parasailing, horse riding, and swimming. Nearby Manavgat has some beautiful natural sights, including a beautiful waterfall.
Side has a variety of restaurants, ranging from Western style food to local delicacies like dolmades and kebabs. Anatolia Cafe is a popular place for English breakfasts and roasts.
Most of Side's nightlife is concentrated along the beachfront. There are a few lively bars and clubs, but they don't stay open very late.
The shopkeepers in Side have a reputation for pestering tourists, especially in the city centre. Many shops will not display prices, so be prepared to ask and haggle. Busy streets that lead down to the sea are lined with souvenir shops selling typical Turkish handicrafts like carpets, jewellery and leather goods. You can take a bus to the Manavgat market on Thursdays, which has the usual souvenir options like t-shirts and leather goods. The main markets are fun and have a lively atmosphere, but the best deals can usually be found in quieter areas.
Side can be very crowded on weekends, when many local tourists visit.

Tiny Gamma takes a break by nickyflamingoWatch
©2013-2017 nickyflamingo
A break sitting on a wire. Your Senshi should too!
Sailor Gamma Leonis be mine!
Chibi senshi collabA project inspired by:
I would like to start up a project where anyone can join; you just need to simply draw one of your senshi chibified sitting/hanging/dancing/whatever on a wire. image can be traditional of digital, they just need to be a size that we can adjust the image to have all the senshi to similar sizes. (Let me know if your senshi should be smaller/larger than the others)
Only no-nos I can think of are:
-No doll makers/premades, traces, copies, ect.
-NO DRAMA (I cannot express this enough)
-To add to this, all art skill levels are welcome, no dissing on yourself (Comparing yourself to others) or to others.
I might add more later, but I'd like this project to be as open as possible.
So let's make the deadline for say... 12/07/2013???
How many senshi are allowed to enter?
Lets start with one and if there's enough demand we can increase the number
Sailor Gamma Leonis be mine!
Supper supper supper cute!
Aw, she's really cute
I like how she looks like she's having a nice chat with the senshi next to her. Al does seem the sort to make insta-friends with whoever she's sitting with!
My Internet was being stupid, so I didn't even get to see her being finished. But she's lovely!
Internet, why you so lame sometimes? And tahbk you ^_^
Very nice work.
So adorable!
alkdfjlksjflsj lsa. Why is she always just so precious?

A Qualitative and Quantitative Structural Landscape Analysis Case Study in Monteverde, Costa Rica
Forest fragmentation translates a geographical isolation process and has been shown to influence the abundance, the movements and persistence of many species. The structure of the highly fragmented forests of Monteverde, Costa Rica, may exercise a relevant influence on the species richness and individual abundance of many forest-dwelling understory bird species.

text: Thank you for this site! This has shown me that even though I am no barbie doll that I can be desirable to other men and enjoy them. I am 38 happily married to Bill 48 for 15 yrs. We have two kids. I have been attracted to black men since I was a teen, but have yet so far to act on this. I have come to a point where I am ready to make this a reality and seeing this site here has given me confidence that other men will be interested in me. I have always wondered what having a black lover would be like and am interested in learning about and experiencing black culture. I finally told my husband about this deep dark fantasy last year and after the initial shock of hearing this from the lips of his "good girl", mother of his children, "pillar of the church" wife he had alot of questions and the thought aroused him highly. He had already been encouraging me to wear more revealing clothing when out and about and confessed that he was turned on by thought of me having sex with other men, but was afraid to tell me. He told me that thought of me violating taboos with black men adds to the intensity. Now I am trying to figure this out while staying safe and mitigating STD risk as well as personal safety. Any thoughts on what works for you would be much appreciated! Any recommendations on how to dip my toes in the water? Advice on going to black clubs or bars? Any good places in the Seattle Tacoma region for me to explore?
