Martha's Vineyard Poet Laureate
The concept of the position of Martha's Vineyard Poet Laureate (MV Poet Laureate) was initiated in 2011 by the Martha's Vineyard Poetry Society. This was the first time in Martha's Vineyard history that a position was created to designate an island-wide poet laureate. On similar note, the Martha's Vineyard Poetry Society (MVPS) is the first island-wide poetry organization in the history of Martha's Vineyard. MVPS was founded in 2008 by island poet/author/musician, William Waterway.
The Martha's Vineyard Poetry Society (MVPS) is composed of a group of approximately 370 island poets and supporters who seek to enhance the presence of poetry on the Vineyard and throughout the world. The purpose of Martha's Vineyard Poetry Society's is to promote poetry on Martha's Vineyard through education and through the support of existing and new poetry groups. It is the organization's hope that through elevation of poetry in people's lives and consciousness – it will facilitate a positive contribution to Martha's Vineyard culture and life styles.
MVPS hosts and sponsors free public poetry events such as: "Summer Solstice In Poetry and Song" held at Featherstone Center for the Arts; "Winter Solstice in Poetry and Song" held at the Vineyard Haven Public Library; "A Gathering of Island Poets and Musicians" – a four-hour MVTV television production broadcast "live" via Comcast to the island community; "Martha's Vineyard Poem in Your Pocket Day (MVPIYPD)"[1] held in conjunction with National Poem in Your Pocket (PIYP) day; "Civil War Poetry" at the Vineyard Haven Public Library with support from the National Library Association (NLA), and the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA), and, many other poetry programs on the island of Martha's Vineyard.

Designation of first Martha's Vineyard Poet Laureate (MVPoetLaureate) in the island's history[edit]
Martha's Vineyard plays host to a strong and vibrant community of poets and clusters of poetry groups. Besides the resident year-round poets, the island enjoys seasonal presentations by many renowned poets, including United States Poets Laureate.
The position of Martha's Vineyard Poet Laureate[2] (MV Poet Laureate) was presented to the public by the 370-member MV Poetry Society in July, 2012. Prior to this, there never was a designated Martha's Vineyard Poet Laureate throughout the island's history. To accomplish the task of designating the island's first MV Poet Laureate, the Martha's Vineyard Poetry Society created a double-blind election process that precluded politicking, lobbying, or collusion.
Martha's Vineyard Poet Laureate election process[edit]
Following a year-long judging process - Lee H. McCormack was selected as the island's first Martha's Vineyard Poet Laureate in July, 2012. A jury of ten qualified literary judges from representatives of the Martha's Vineyard Poetry Society, island libraries, writers, and poetry groups made the selection. Mr. McCormack was one out of a field of twenty-six participating poets. Each poet submitted five of their finest poems to the Martha's Vineyard Poetry Society. The poems were then copied and distributed to the judges without identifying marks except for a number assigned to each poet. All judging was based solely on the merits of submitted poems. Each of the ten judges did not know the names of the poets they were judging. On similar note, participating poets did not know the names of the ten judges.
The names of the winning poet was revealed to the judges after the numerical judging results were submitted and calculated. Shortly after the judging process, a public announcement and media release shared the name of the winning poet. The Martha's Vineyard Poetry Society, in conjunction with the Vineyard Haven Public Library, held a festive evening to inaugurate and celebrate the island's first Martha's Vineyard Poet Laureate.
Since his election, MV Poet Laureate, Lee, H. McCormack has undertaken several public library poetry gatherings - as well as participating in the Featherstone Center for the Arts evening of "Fall Poetry and Music." Mr. McCormack is also organizing a series of workshops with island poetry groups; libraries; schools; cultural institutions, and council on aging organizations. MV Poet Laureate, Lee McCormack(aka: MVPoetLaureate McCormack), read his shark conservation and education poem, entitled, The Apex, before an audience exceeding 2,000 people at the "Jaws Fest The Tribute", festival in 2012.
Community responsibilities of Martha's Vineyard Poet Laureate[edit]
The Martha's Vineyard Poet Laureate is a two-year term position. The MV Poet Laureate is responsible for promoting poetry and educating the public about the merits of the high-art form of poetry. This effort includes outreach poetry programs through schools; senior centers; social institutions; churches; media; writers groups; memorials, and appropriate political gatherings on and off the island of Martha's Vineyard.
Experience and qualifications of Martha's Vineyard's first Poet Laureate[edit]
Lee H. McCormack is a year-round Martha's Vineyard resident who has lived on the island of Martha's Vineyard for over 40-years. He is a member of the Cleaveland House Poets of West Tisbury on Martha's Vineyard. Cleaveland House Poets, is a poetry group that has grown out of a poetry group founded in the house of same name by Dionis Coffin Riggs. The group has met every two weeks since c1960. MV Poet Laureate Lee McCormack has composed poetry since age twelve, and has undertaken intensive poetry studies with: Galway Kinnell; Sharon Olds; Charles Simic; Robert Pinsky; Thomas Lux; Peter Klappert; Steve Orlen; George Mills (writer); Short-term critical studies with: Michael Ryan; AI; Single Summer Resident at Warren Wilson College MFA Program for Writers.
Brief history of Martha's Vineyard poetry[edit]
Martha's Vineyard has a history of attracting people of note as well as those involved with the arts - including: dancers; actors; singer/songwriters; authors; playwrights; artists; sitting United States presidents; and poets. The island's storied history with poetry begins with the writings of the first colonialists, who wrote poetic prose that is recognized today as a form called poesy. Another historic island connection to poetry is that with novelist and civil war poet, Herman Melville. As Martha's Vineyard entered the whaling era - many whaling ship crew members, including the occasional woman, also put poetic pen to paper.
During the early-1900s, the up-island home of Dionis Coffin Riggs (1898-1997) - situated in the town of West Tisbury, became the island's de facto center of poetry. Ms. Riggs' home was the historic "Cleaveland House." The Cleaveland House has been in the same family for over 250 years, and has always served as a meeting place of island intellectuals, politicians, and writers. Circa 1960, Ms. Riggs began hosting poetry gatherings at her home. Since its inception, this group of poets met every two weeks to share, discuss, and criticize the original poems of attending members. To embellish the literary experience at her home, Ms. Riggs hosted "black bean dinners" every Saturday evening as a vehicle for poets and writers to share discourse. Since 1960 or earlier, the Poets have met every two weeks at Cleaveland House on a continuous basis with little interruption, and continue to do so at the present. The continuity and longevity of this poetry group at Cleaveland House makes it the most successful writers' group in the history of Martha's Vineyard. In 2007, William Waterway became the group's Chair. Soon after, the group published their first book of poetry, "Wednesday's Poets," published by Summerset Press. The title reflects the day of week the Cleaveland House Poets have historically gathered. Contributing poets to this anthology were: Jane Brown; Ruth Cochrane; Janet Holladay; Russ Hoxsie; Bob Kaplan; Francesca Kelly; Judith Neeld; Katrina Nevin; Brooks Robards; Valerie Sonnenthal; Holly Wayman, and Sally Williams. Today, the Cleaveland House poets members include: Andrea B. Quigley; Ellie Bates; Bob Kaplan; Brooks Robards; Sally Williams; Chris Legge; Cynthia Riggs; Lee H. McCormack; Don McLagan; Fanny Staunton Ogilvie; Jo Rice; Judith Neeld; Kara Taylor; Peter Ledermann; Susan Pucuil; Valerie Sonnenthal, and William Waterway Marks. In 2009, Mr. Waterway began promoting the group at public readings as "Cleaveland House Poets". This group recently published an anthology entitled: "Cleaveland House Poets, 50 - Years," which was edited by Waterway. Cleaveland House Poets is now recognized as the oldest, continuously meeting poetry group in the history of Martha's Vineyard as well as the United States.
Over the decades, various island organizations and libraries have sponsored educational poetry programs, including the Martha's Vineyard Regional High School and island elementary schools; the Nathan Mayhew Seminars, and Feathestone Center for the Arts.
The Martha's Vineayard Poetry Society (MVPS), which is the sanctioning organization for the Martha's Vineyard Poet Laureate - was founded in 2008 by William Waterway. As of September 2014, MVPS has over 370 members, and hosts various poetry events that are offered to the public for free.
The position of West Tisbury Poet Laureate had its genesis with Dionis Coffin Riggs. During her active life as a poet and writer, Dionis Coffin Riggs was sometimes referred to the island's poet laureate. Dionis would flinch at this, stating that Poet Laureate is not a lighthearted sobriquet. In honor of her mother's memory, Cynthia Riggs undertook the task of creating the position of West Tisbury Poet Laureate. About ten years after Dionis' death, in spring of 2006, Cynthia Riggs petitioned the town of West Tisbury to put an article on the Annual Town Meeting warrant to establish the position of West Tisbury Poet Laureate. The position of West Tisbury Poet Laureate officially came into existence on April 11, 2006 by a voice vote at the West Tisbury Annual Town Meeting.[3] Soon afterwards, at the recommendation of an advisory committee formed by the West Tisbury Library, the Selectmen appointed Daniel Waters as the town's first Poet Laureate.[4] Technically, the town Poet Laureate is a municipal appointment with a term of one year (renewable up to three). Officially, there is no budget, no salary, no benefits, no power - except prestige and public acceptance. Beyond that, the job of town poet laureate is left to the poet's imagination. Since Daniel Waters selection, there have been two other poets selected to fill the position of West Tisbury Town Poet Laureate - Fan Ogilvie, and Justen Ahren. On similar note, in December, 2011, the selectmen of the Martha's Vineyard town of Edgartown appointed Steve Ewing as their first town poet laureate, .[5]
As documented above - in July, 2012 - the first Martha's Vineyard Poet Laureate (MV Poet Laureate) in the island's history was selected by a panel of ten literary judges organized under the auspices of the Martha's Vineyard Poetry Society. The Martha's Vineyard Poet Laureate (MVPL) is encouraged to work with island media; poetry organizations; towns, and schools to further the public's appreciation of poetry.

eFax(R) Provides a High Return for Finance and Banking Pros
(Marketwire Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) LOS ANGELES, CA -- (Marketwire) -- 12/12/12 -- The financial industry is vastly different from what it was even a few years ago. From mobile applications to cloud computing, the tools of the trade are changing and finance professionals need to ensure they're equipped to keep up with the times. Business no longer exists solely in the office, and knowing how to work on the go is crucial for success. eFax® is online at www.efax.com and at
According to an "Efficiency in Wealth Management: Mobile at the Gates" report, U.S. wealth management firms have finally begun to take note of recent advances in mobile computing. Firms cognizant of this need are developing mobile strategies that consider which advisor applications should be made accessible and which mobile platforms should be supported.
eFax®, a provider of online fax services since 1996 and a brand of j2 Global, Inc. (NASDAQ: JCOM), provides the necessary solution with its full line of internet faxing services. Financial professionals no longer need to feel tied to the fax machine in order to communicate with partners, clients and coworkers. With its ability to increase document security, eFax is the perfect service for financial advisors, stock brokers and bankers hoping to close more deals and provide more services to their clients.
eFax mobile apps and online faxing services are perfect for financial professionals of all types. Whether for a large international company or small firm, eFax offers these four tips for financial professionals to communicate more efficiently with flexible cloud services: 1. View your faxes online -- Which is worse: having to hover at the fax machine waiting for an important document to come through or stopping by later only to find that your document has disappeared Both are bad for business, but there's an answer. eFax delivers faxes directly to your email inbox. It's private and it's available in the office, at home, or on the road.
2. Sign on the (virtual) dotted line -- In the financial sector, there are many occasions in which signed documents need to be turned around quickly. eFax allows financial professionals to add digitized signatures to their online documents directly from their smart phone, tablet, or computer. No need to find a printer, fax machine, or FedEx drop box.
3. Send file folders to the cloud -- eFax makes it easier to keep track of important documents by automatically storing sent and received faxes. Professionals can digitally search, tag and annotate all their documents. This feature makes it possible to move beyond the leaning stacks of unsorted documents into a world of easily searched digital files -- something that is sure to be applauded come tax season! 4. Share the big contracts -- Financial advisors and bankers have to regularly email huge proposals and contracts. Many email servers cap the size of attachments, which can block these documents from ever being delivered. In addition to its faxing features, eFax provides Large File Sharing that allows users to email files up to 1 GB -- more than enough for your typical "big deal." With eFax, it's easier to keep up with the ever-changing modern financial business environment.

We love our tees and hoodies so much we could talk about them all day, but that'd be a bit weird. So we'll just say that we're immensely proud of the quality of all our garments and the super futuristic technology that creates our unique t-shirts and hoodie prints. Our t-shirts are long lasting, individual and extremely useful for abiding by public decency laws.
We advise you cold wash your garments and hang them out to dry. It'll keep them super soft, looking their best and it's even good for the environment.
Slim fit, order a size up if you'd like it less fitting. If you like your hoodies baggy, go two sizes up.

After spending 5 nights in a hotel in Marrackech for £280 in total, we were dissapointed when we arrived at Caravanerai. My husband and I spent 7 nights at this hotel for our honeymoon in October 2009. Upon arrival, we were taken to the Majorelle Suite which is lovely - beautiful Morrocan furnishings and a cute pool with trees and privacy which is ideal for your honeymoon (although, having said that, there was toilet paper in the pool and the lights often didn't work which made it a bit treacherous at night)). As we had missed lunch, we ordered a club sandwich and were shocked to see that the lettuce contained not one but roughly 30 small flies. We left the sandwich and waited for a member to staff to collect so we could complain, but the sandwich wasn't collected, so we put it down to perhaps leftover lunch etc and tried not to let it spoil our stay. That evening we dined outside around the pool and must say the food was better - we tried not to think about the earlier incident and enjoyed a 3 course meal with a local musician playing music whilst we dined. It was so romantic with the candles surrounding the pool. Within days of our stay both my husband and I had upset stomachs and needed to be near a bathroom. The breakfast buffet was surrounded in flies, so we tried to eat the cereals or yoghurts which were covered. Also, as late in the season, we were the only guests there and although they advertise a bar, we felt rushed each evening during dinner service and on occasion the staff would be watiting for us to finish our dessert so they could clear up and shut the bar. By 9pm most evenings we were in bed when it would have been nice to stay up late for an after dinner drink or two! The majority of the staff were very helpful and friendly (especially the hilarious guy on reception and the smily man behind the bar) with the exception of the owner who was quite surly and rude (eg picking my husband up on his French for saying 'bon soir' instead of 'bonjour' at 6pm one evening}. She also had a friend stay and seemed more concerned that she was being looked after, rather than her (high) paying guests. I would recommend this hotel to anyone who is prepared to spend a fortune, wants a quiet break, early nights and doesn't mind what they eat or the consequences!
- Official Description (provided by the hotel):
- Evoking the ancient stopping places of the travelling merchants, the CaravanSerai is symbolic of the other face of Morocco. The interior courtyards and secret corners are inspired by the traditional Berber villages. In luxurious simplicity the 16 bedrooms and suites are decorated in a refined ethnic style. The Hammam, with its tadelakt plaster columns and its great pool subtly lit by shafts of light, is considered to be one of the finest in Marrakech. ... more less
- Reservation Options:
- TripAdvisor is proud to partner with Priceline, Booking.com, TripOnline SA and Odigeo so you can book your Caravanserai reservations with confidence. We help millions of travelers each month to find the perfect hotel for both vacation and business trips, always with the best discounts and special offers.

Along with all the other sports channels instead of having them rely on channel welfare for money. If HBO can do it, Disney can. Let those who actually watch World's Strongest Man, Poker and Australian dick wrestling on the deuce pay for it.
It's a vicious cycle. ESPN bids more for the NFL each time the contract is up. So Disney charges more to the providers for ESPN each contract renewal, and the providers pass on the increase to their customers, rinse and repeat.

What really burns my spurs is that the NBA and the NFL are registered as Non-Profit organizations and as a result, they pay NO TAXES!!!!
You're going to pay for it no matter who shows it.The national networks don't want it. ABC gave it up because it was losing money on the deal. NBC has SNF which is the more lucrative slot. CBS and FOX already have deals for afternoon games. If any of the national networks would take it over again, they are going to have to have the advertising revenues to support it, so they are going to charge advertisers more to show during that slot. Guess who ultimately the costs get passed on to...the public who buys their products.Not much has changed since ABC was losing money, so whoever the new network would be, it's probably going to have to subsidize MNF with other programming's advertisers. And guess who ultimately the costs of that advertising get passed on to...the public who buys their products.The national network could raise rates for affiliates who show MNF. They are just going to passes it on for the local advertising and retransmission consent fees. And guess who ultimately those costs get passed on to...the public.The only way that sports programming is going to cost less is if everyone puts their foot down and says no more. And that isn't going to happen.
This is all assuming the NFL is entitled to these massive increases each year. Right now, the entire customer base outside of limited basic subsidises NFL fans. At some point, something has to give.
...dumping them could chop several dollars from the monthly bill.
And putting all the sports channels in optional premium tiers would really make a dent in the bill.
All TV providers would put the sports channels on a sports tier if they could. But I thought everyone knew by now, after all these years of this talk, that it is not up to the TV providers. The channel owners dictate that the channels, namely ESPN and NFL Network, must be on the standard tiers and they must be paid for every customer that the cable/satellite/telco has.
1) Older people do enjoy their movies2) 56 is elderly? I'm guessing you are very very young.56 is Middle Aged not elderly. You make someone that age appear to be an invalid. My mom is in her 60s and if my dad were alive, the mid 60s. Grandparents are approaching 90. Lifespan is a lot longer and trust me bud, 56 isn't "elderly".Set in their ways and having not grown up with technology? - Possibly. However, by no means elderly.Now you want elderly, check out folks in their 80s+ and then you'll definitely have the demographic you're referring to.

Of course, computer literacy increases with each prior generation. Individuals my mother's age (60+) or say 50-70 are moderately to mildly proficient. Again, we're generalizing but you've got a lot of diversity within this subset.
Younger generations are actually very poor with computers....Better at tech my ass.
The New American Heritage dictionary defines middle age as "the period between youth and adulthood, generally 40 to 60." The Oxford English Dictionary cites 45 to 60, while Webster's and the U.S. Census Bureau peg middle age at 45 to 64. The nonprofit Pew Research Center uses 50 to 64 (dubbing it the "threshold generation") and classifies those between 30 and 49 in its "younger adult" category.

Allowing the pipe owners to direct the content or even own the content is a bad model.

As far as sports go they should cap the players salaries. How much money do you need to earn to play sports?

11 Creative Sides for Summer Cookouts
Recipes that will grab just as much attention as what's cooking on the grill
Today on The Daily Meal
City Guides
Most Popular
It's not often that sides create a stir, but we think these sensational sides will be the talk of the party. Pair them with some perfectly grilled steaks, juicy hamburgers, or some delicious barbecued ribs — these 11 side dishes are versatile enough to mix and match with just about anything. Each of them offers a slight twist on an old cookout classic, whether it's crunchy coleslaw, rich and creamy potato salad, or just some good old french fries. Here are some highlights:
Whole Foods Market puts a new spin on bean salad with edamame and quinoa; cut down on prep time by using shelled edamame and pre-cut green beans. Or, to put your own signature on the dish, feel free to substitute chickpeas, pinto, or black beans instead.
Normally, taking the potato out of potato salad would seem like sacrilege, but if the popularity of this recipe points to anything, it's that cauliflower makes a fine substitute. Go ahead, take the plunge, and give it a try.
Alison J. Bermack, author of the blog Cooking with Friends Club, puts a little extra crunch and an Asian-inspired twist on her coleslaw with pan-fried wonton wrappers, tender baby bok choy, and Napa cabbage, tossed in a delicious dressing made with sesame oil, freshly grated ginger, and rice wine vinegar.
But we certainly don't want to spoil everything, so without further ado, click here to see the 11 Easy Sides for Summer Cookouts Slideshow.

NOM: Mission Overturn Iowa Marriage
BY admin
November 05 2010 2:25 PM ET
"NOM has boldly and consistently refused to disclose its donors, so much
so that they challenged campaign disclosure laws in several states,"
said Fred Sainz, HRC's vice-president of communications. "You don't
fight laws that everyone else has to follow unless you're hiding
For a constitutional amendment to be passed in
Iowa, both the state house and senate have to approve the measure by a
simple majority in two consecutive general assemblies, followed by a
simple majority of voters.
But Democratic state senate majority
leader Mike Gronstal remains steadfast in blocking such a vote. Though
Republicans may even the 50-seat senate makeup to a 25-25 split,
Gronstal said he would still have the power to render the issue a
"It's an anachronism," Gronstal said of the
backlash against marriage equality in his state. "I'm not going to
insert discrimination into the constitution of Iowa. It's as simple as
that. My father taught me, and his father taught him, that everyone's
equal before the law."
Gronstal successfully fought attempts for a
senate vote this year and argued that Tuesday's judicial retention vote
wasn't indicative of the people's dissatisfaction with marriage rights
for same-sex couples.
"Judges are always going to have 20% to
30% of voters against them regardless," Gronstal said. "Maybe a third of
Iowans voted against them because of the [marriage] issue, and a
quarter voted against them because they always vote against judges. I'm
not sure it's the clear mandate that some are trying to sell it as."

2014-15 Upper Deck Lettermen Basketball CardsBrand: College
The letterman tradition is one of the longest standing honors in American colleges. 2014-15 Upper Deck Lettermen Basketball takes the signed letter concept and develops an entire product around it. Each hobby box has a pair of signed cards including one Lettermen Autograph. Collectors can also expect to find at least one memorabilia-focused insert and a handful of numbered parallels.
The focal-point Lettermen Autographs have been around in different forms for a while now. These use manufactured letter patches, similar to those you'd find on the back of a jersey, and add a signature. In the past, Upper Deck has had athletes sign on the patch. They've also done cards where the autograph is on an acetate overlay. It appears that these are done on the frame of the card. Rookie Lettermen are numbered to 65 or less. Legendary Lettermen, which include Michael Jordan, LeBron James, Magic Johnson and Larry Bird, are numbered to 50 or less.
Most memorabilia cards take a manufactured relic approach. Championship Banners (#/125 or less) and Retired Numbers (#/99 or less) have commemorative banners embedded in them. Both come with autographed versions. Other premium memorabilia-themed inserts include Monumental Logo Patches (#/50 or less), Home Court Stars (1:15 packs) and Home Court Stars Autographs (1:63 packs).
The 2014-15 Upper Deck Lettermen base set has 50 base cards and 30 Premier Rookies (#/999). Boxes have a total of six parallels numbered to 499 or less. Veteran parallels come in Blue (#/249), Silver (#/15) and Gold (#/5). Rookie parallels are Blue (#/499), Silver (#/99) and Gold (#/10). The three color parallels are also present in the base autographs set.
Estimated Release Date: 10/15/14
Product Configuration: 10 packs per box, 4 cards per pack
Price Point: Mid-End Basketball Card
Target Audience: Autograph Collectors, College Basketball Fans
2014-15 Upper Deck Lettermen Basketball Box Break
- 1 Lettermen Autograph
- 1 Additional Autograph
- 1 Relic/Memorabilia Card
- 6 Numbered Parallels
- 40 Total Cards

Film Review – Ouija

Film Review – Dracula Untold
Let's get this straight right off the bat: Dracula Untold (2014) is not a very good movie. It's a "gritty" take on the famous vampire legend, although it takes many liberties with the mythology. The story is goofy and implausible, the CGI murky and unconvincing,…READ MORE

First of all, I am in NO WAY, condoning the "hitting" or physical abuse in any form toward women, gays or "anyone" for that matter.
Having said that, I believe that Mr. Brown has paid his "debt" to society. He has been punished. He went to court, he was sentenced and he has completed the terms of his punishment/sentence. So, it is time for people to once again focus on his product which is his music/concerts, etc.
He was wrong. I think he gets the message. It appears he has a temper, or some anger issues. That doesn't make him a "bad person". That makes him very possibly a good (young) man with a temper/anger issues. So, in my OPINION, I say it's time to move on and enjoy this young man's talent which is awesome. At this point I'm sure he knows he's not above the law.
PS: Rihanna is, now, catching some heat for her latest video which COULD send a disturbing message to our youth. and in addressing "double standards"….it's not OK for her or ANY woman to punch and beat on a man and feel that they should "get that off", just because they're a woman. That's wrong too. Nobody should be hitting any body. That's just my two cents. Peace.

It's Halloween time — do ghosts really exist? At this time of year, people dress-up as ghosts and demons, and even believe they exist. But to ghosts and demons really exist? And are they out to get you? What about the 'Holy Ghost' (sometimes translated as 'Holy Spirit') of the Bible? Pastor Nathan Lewis and Bernie Gehler of the Westside Science & Religion Discussion will explore this question and present their viewpoints on Sunday, October 26.
This can be a friendly event for different groups to meet each other. A place for Christians to get to know atheists; and atheists to get to know Christians. And everyone else is also invited; all belief systems (Muslim, Hindu, etc.). We will show that conversations with people of radically different ideas can be both fun and friendly.

So much for the So Called MUSLIM President many supposedly GOD FEARING Jesus Following Pretending False Claiming Christians of America claimed for this President to BE!. Now that OUR MUSLIM President according to YOU and YOUR DARK HATRED has started a CHRISTIAN ACT to Save a Group of isolated Christians surrounded by Angry Muslims, your Hatred still continues with Vengence! Why would a so called MUSLIM Leader come to the DEFENSE of Unknown CHRISTIANS half a World away! Providing for them Food, Water and Tents.
ALL of the now ANGRY CHRISTIANS of America who has passed Judgement on this American President. Now owes this American President an APOLOGY!
However, we ALL know that an APOLOGY will NOT be coming forth. Why? Because the So Called American Christians with Hatred in their Heart for this American President are not even CHRISTIAN ENOUGH to admit THEY were WRONG!
Thank-You God for President Obama. It has been said you work in MYSTERIOUS WAYS....nothing was ever said about American Christians and their VERY MYSTERIOUS and STRANGE UN-CHRISTIAN LIKE WAYS.
Praise JAYSUS!

Daybreak over Banff
I watched the sky brighten above the Banff from Norquay Meadow. The moon lit the mountain a little while the townsite's lights glowed in the valley below.
Autumn sunrise on the prairie
I enjoyed taking a little time earlier in the week to watch a sunrise from a range road on the prairie just west of Calgary.
Autumn brings with it layers of clouds which often stretch across the morning sky and catch wonderful colors before and during the sun's rise.
A bull at sunrise
Canon 5DIII and 24mm lens: 1/25th of a second on f/11 and ISO 800
The early morning sky was beautiful this morning. I stopped for a while to watch the clouds move from the pinks and purples to the reds and oranges and then into the yellow and golds. This bull was not impressed by any of that – he was calling from his solo field to the cows in the field across the road. He stared at me at one point and that worked for me.
Wedge Pond Mists
With the early snows of the past week, I was eager to get into the mountains to see how things looked up there this weekend. I went up to Wedge Pond which sits below Mount Kidd in Kananaskis. This small, shallow pot lake is a great location in the fall as it is ringed by a variety of trees and catches the mountain's reflection in its quiet waters.
It was overcast when I headed out but the sky was more promising in the mountains. Before dawn, the mist started to rise off the water. It was cold and seemed to be perfect conditions for the creation of low clouds and heavy mist. That worked for me and I enjoyed photographing along the shoreline through sunrise.
The leaves on the deciduous trees are just starting to change color so I will make sure to return in a couple of weeks to catch their golds and oranges. The elk rut should start around the same time so I'm looking forward to hearing their bugling in the forest surrounding the pond then too.
The sun's fire in the trees
(Please click on the image if you would like to view a higher resolution version)
A hazy sky created deep, rich hues in the rising sun and the morning sky. A beautiful scene to watch unfold as the day grew but it was a small silver lining to forest fires burning across the province right now responsible for the haze. While we haven't had forest fires around Bragg Creek and Kananaskis so far this summer, there are ten fires in Alberta currently. Most are being held or are under control presently with only one reported as being out of control. It is a testament to people involved in fighting these fires and a reminder of our place in this natural cycle that allows for rebirth.
A calm morning at Elbow Falls
I went up to Elbow Falls last weekend and ice-covered all but a sliver of the river and most of the waterfall too. With the warm days since then, I wanted to see how this beautiful spot looked now. Much of the snow and ice has melted, opening the waterway and showing another side of Kananaskis. Spring may be around the corner.
A few mornings off Punta Cabeza De Ballena
Canon 5DIII + 24-105mm f/4 lens at 24mm: 8 seconds at f/16 on ISO 200
When we were in Los Cabos last week, we stayed just off the water near Punta Cabeza De Ballena which is east of Cabo San Lucas. Facing east, the sun rose out of the Sea of Cortez every morning. With my wife's graceful blessing, I was on the beach before dawn almost every day. These are a few of the different faces the coast presented over the week.

Mexican dawn in Los Cabos
Bobbi and I are in Cabo san Lucas with our children for a nice break from winter. We left just before a heavy blizzard so we were lucky with the timing. The mornings have been spectacular here as we are located on a lovely stretch of sand where the sun climbs out of the Sea of Cortez right in front of us. On this morning the silhouette of a fellow sunrise watcher tied the glowing pastels in the sky ahead of dawn to the rippled reflections and the beach.
Cotton Candy
Fuji X100S: 1/30 of a second at f/8 on ISO 800
I couldn't help but think of the carnival ground food staple when I was photographing at dawn a couple of days ago.
Calm on the lake
Canon 5DIII camera with a Canon 24-105mm lens at 47mm: 13.0 seconds at f/11 on ISO 800
When I was in Glacier National Park in Montana, one of the mornings offered up a great sunrise. I shared a couple of photographs from that morning previously in this post. Reviewing the images from that trip last night, I found one more image from the same morning that I really liked. I missed this one the first time through but I'm glad it didn't slip by on the second pass.
