Poetry and music are so closely aligned anyway that at their best, they become one. This is a stunning, awe-inspiring, love-soaked example.
As for The Coral Sea, it's a magnificent tribute and a monumental accomplishment in the career of one of America's truly outstanding artists.
Like all of her wordplay--as written, sometimes spontaneously spoken, and occasionally sung--it fits.
Here, she's captured twice in concert feverishly reading her phantasmagoric memorial to friend and artist Robert Mapplethorpe with the accompaniment of fellow savant Kevin Shields, the reclusive My Bloody Valentine leader who matches the ebb and flow of her morphing prose with thunderstorms of guitar sustain that weep and roar empathetically.
Smith's love for the sensuousness of language and her possessed recitation coupled with Shields' auractic guitar scrawls succeed in ways unimaginable. [Fall 2008, p.84]
Shield's stark and shimmering shoegaze guitars expand and contract like colossal organs under Smith's chameleonic spoken word. [Summer 2008, p.97]

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — Montee Ball ran for a career-high 247 yards and scored three touchdowns to help Wisconsin beat Purdue 38-14 on Saturday afternoon.
James White added 124 yards rushing for the Badgers (5-2, 2-1 Big Ten), who outgained Purdue 645 yards to 252. The Badgers pounded out 467 yards rushing in the rain.
Ball moved past Texas Tech's Taurean Henderson and now is alone in third place in NCAA history with 72 total career touchdowns.
Akeem Hunt ran for 85 yards and a touchdown for Purdue. The Boilermakers (3-3, 0-2), who were coming off a 44-13 loss to Michigan, travel to Ohio State next week.
The win gives Wisconsin a favorable position in the Big Ten's Leaders Division, especially since Ohio State and Penn State cannot qualify for the conference title game because of NCAA rules violations.
ANN ARBOR, Mich. — Denard Robinson threw two touchdown passes and ran for two scores, leading No. 25 Michigan in a 45-0 win over Illinois on Saturday.
The Wolverines (4-2, 2-0 Big Ten) got a scare when Robinson left the game with an undisclosed injury late in the first quarter. He missed just one-plus possessions, though, and returned to score on a 6-yard run to put Michigan up 17-0 late in the first half.
Robinson ran for a 49-yard score — giving him 10,000-plus career yards of offense — on the Wolverines' first drive of the second half and tossed an 8-yard TD pass to Devin Funchess on their next possession to make it 31-0.
EAST LANSING, Mich. — Mark Weisman ran for 116 yards and a tying touchdown in the final minute of regulation, and Iowa went on to beat Michigan State 19-16 in double overtime Saturday.
Mike Meyer kicked field goals in both overtimes, including a 42-yarder in the second that gave the Hawkeyes (4-2, 2-0 Big Ten) their first lead of the game. Iowa then won it when Andrew Maxwell's deflected pass was intercepted by Greg Castillo.
Le'Veon Bell ran for 140 yards and a touchdown for Michigan State, but the Spartans (4-3, 1-2) couldn't hold on late. Iowa drove 68 yards in nine plays and tied it at 13 on Weisman's 5-yard scoring run with 55 seconds left in the fourth quarter.
MINNEAPOLIS — Venric Mark rushed for 182 yards and two touchdowns to carry Northwestern to a 21-13 victory over Minnesota on Saturday.
Mark wasn't touched on scoring runs of 26 and 48 yards and the Wildcats (6-1, 2-1 Big Ten) overcame 11 penalties to become bowl eligible and spoil Minnesota's homecoming celebration.
MarQueis Gray rushed for 86 yards and a touchdown for the Golden Gophers (4-2, 0-2) before being forced out again with an injury.
   MINNEAPOLIS — Minnesota football coach Jerry Kill has been hospitalized after suffering another seizure following his team's 21-13 loss to Northwestern.
   Kill coached the entire game and conducted his postgame interviews Saturday before returning to the locker room. Once there, school officials say he had a seizure.
   The school says Kill was immediately attended to by team medical staff and is alert and resting comfortably at the hospital.

How the Cowboys Ruined Thanksgiving
That's the claim that Mike Shropshire makes about America's Team's annual Turkey Day match, in a piece published today on Slate:
Full Story
The football aspect has warped Thanksgiving in this region to the point that the success of the family interchange relies mostly on the outcome of the game. I assume that family counselors, emergency rooms, and divorce lawyers see business skyrocket when the Cowboys lose on Thanksgiving.
Sometimes even the most innocent remark can spoil the whole weekend. From past years, I hear the voice of a 7-year-old child. "Mom," the voice says. "After the Cowboys lost, Dad was in the kitchen and he said the f-word and Grandma heard him." Mom issues Dad a look of, to be charitable, profound dismay. Unkind remarks ensue, and by the conclusion of the evening, Dad could show Tiger Woods a thing or two about a hard luck Thanksgiving … all because Dallas chose to lose.

Product description
'Christopher's house stood out on its cliff like stages of lunar madness. It was the night of the first storm, not of winter, but of that week before winter which is the last warning to all creatures to dig themselves in...' Christopher Barocco is a self-made man of considerable means who decrees the building of a house in his image, to be carved out of a wild and treacherous Californian hillside in the Sierra Nevada valleys. However, as those who are drawn into his grand design soon discover, Barocco is also a man with a shadowy past; and the house is not destined to be a place where he will find peace but, rather, a catalyst for passion, violence, and death. First published in 1956, "The Self-Enchanted" was David Stacton's third novel. "A Gothic extravaganza...[Stacton] seems to participate with so much fervour in the fantasies he describes". ("Times Literary Supplement").

Author information
David Stacton (1923-1968) was born Lionel Kingsley Evans in San Francisco. He attended Stanford University before serving in the Civilian Public Service as a conscientious objector during World War II, eventually graduating from the University of California at Berkeley in 1951. Stacton went to Europe after college and ended up staying, in his words, 'because I liked it and because I could not get my books in print in America.' His first novel, Dolores, was published in England in 1954. Among the wide-ranging historical and biographical novels for which he would become best known are Remember Me, about Ludwig of Bavaria; On a Balcony, about Nefertiti and Pharaoh Akhenaten; Segaki, set in feudal Japan; A Signal Victory, about the Spanish conquest of the Yucatan; Old Acquaintance, set at a film festival and telling of the loves of a star resembling Marlene Dietrich; and People of the Book, set during the Thirty Years' War. In 1968 he moved to Fredensborg, Denmark, but ten days later he was found dead in his new home. He was forty-four years old.

Chair Advice
What Makes an Office Chair Ergonomic?
There are many brands of ergonomic chairs on the market today, including Allseating, BOSS, ErgoFast, Eurotech, and many others. With so many different choices of ergonomic chairs and stools, many of which you can probably find in an office near you, it's clear that ergonomics have become a popular trend in office furniture design. But how many people actually know what makes a chair, or any other piece of office furniture, "ergonomic"? Keep reading if you're interested in learning more about this revolution in seating and furniture design, and making the most of your health and workplace experience.
Defining Ergonomics
According to the Merriam-Webster Dictionary, ergonomics, which is also known as human engineering or biotechnology, is a type of applied science that is centered on the design and arrangement of "things people use" so that those people and things "interact most efficiently and safely." The term may also be used to describe the characteristics and design of an object as a consequence of the use of ergonomic science. This may all sound complicated, but at the end of the day, ergonomic furniture is designed to keep people comfortable and safe as they work, and most importantly, to help workers avoid stress-related injuries on the job. The following factors affect the ergonomic design of an office chair, which is the most important piece of furniture for a comfortable workplace.
Back Support
A regular office chair can easily leave a person with pain in the back, neck, and shoulders after extended use. It really doesn't take long to feel these effects if you are sitting in a poorly designed office chair day in and day out. With one of the available ergonomically designed products, such as the popular ergoCentric chairs, this is no longer a problem. An ergonomic chair is designed to provide optimal back support, including lumbar support in addition to a classic backrest with just the right amount of padding, to keep the spine in a healthy straight position. This ultimately limits stress, absorbs shocks, and reduces the likelihood of injury.
The height of a chair may seem inconsequential, but it can make a big difference when it's wrong. If the height of your chair and/or armrests isn't right, you will quickly become uncomfortable on the job. Ergonomically designed chairs have adjustable armrests and seats, and sometimes even adjustable backrests, so you can get the perfect match for your height and body type.
Overall Size
The overall size of a chair matters in ergonomics as well. The design of an office chair should not only consider the height of various parts, but also the width of the backrest, and the depth and width of the seat. The backrest should be at least 12 inches wide and the seat should be at least 18 inches wide, if not more, to provide adequate support for the worker.
At the end of the day, all these ergonomic factors can help contribute to a happier and healthier workforce, which makes an organization much more productive in the long run.
How to Find the Right Chair for Big or Tall People
When you have to sit for hours on end in an office chair, the most important aspect is that the chair is comfortable and good for your health. However, not all office chairs are made to fit all types of people. If you are taller or bigger boned than the average person, you should not have to sacrifice your comfort just to do your job at a desk. Sitting at a desk can be particularly uncomfortable for taller individuals. Their legs might bend in a strange fashion in the wrong chair. Those who are bigger might experience back pain due to a lack of support from a standard chair. In order to find a chair to suit your needs, you have to shop for chairs with certain features and adjustments made especially for those who are big or tall.
Height Adjustment
If you are bigger and taller, you know that most office chairs are designed for a much shorter person. Chairs that don't adjust height-wise can't provide the user with the comfort that they need. Your office chair should be fully adjustable so that you don't have to crouch down. Feet should rest flat on the floor and the lower legs should be straight and not bent. This allows for increased blood circulation. Every big and tall office chair should have a quick and easy way to adjust the height of the chair relative to the floor.
Weight Capacity
Each chair has a certain weight capacity. Standard office chairs can be quite limited in the weight that they can hold. You need to look for chairs that hold enough weight. These products can handle anywhere from 300 to 500 pounds. In order to handle extra weight, the chair might have a larger base and a stronger mechanism.
Seat Width and Sliders
One of the most common complaints about standard office chairs is that the seat is not wide enough for those who are big and tall. If you require an office chair that is taller and larger than the average size, you need to look for a chair with a greater seat width. This will lend additional comfort and help support your thighs. Chairs with wider seats will be easy to find if you pay attention to the seat dimensions. Many office chairs that are designed for those who are big and tall also include a seat slider. This feature allows the user to create more length in their chair seat. This is a particularly useful feature in an office chair for tall people. In addition to the seat slider feature and a wider seat, you should also notice the cushioning of the seat. It should provide enough comfort and support for those long days behind the desk.
Tilt Tension
Many big and tall office chairs come with a tilt tension feature. As not everyone is the same weight, height and strength, you need a chair that can cater to diverse users. The tilt tension feature makes it possible to control the rate and ease with which the chair reclines. This feature is important, as it allows the chair to adjust to different weights and strengths.
High Backrest
One of the most important features of any chair that you sit in for hours on end is back support. If a chair doesn't support your back, you could experience headaches, neck and shoulder pain and pain in the lower back. For those who are taller and bigger, short backrests do not lend the proper support. You need to find a chair that has a high backrest. This feature will offer the proper lumbar support.
Five Things an Office Chair Expert Can Teach You About Your Ergonomic Needs
It's easy to assume a chair expert understands furniture much better than they understand the spine, but an expert on office chairs with ergonomic features can actually te
ach you a lot about your back and the support you need to keep it in good shape. If you work in an office, you inevitably spend a lot of time sitting down, and that can put a great deal of strain on your back and, subsequently, on the rest of your entire body. This is why experts have spent years developing furniture that encourage better posture and provide specific support for the lower back.
So, if you want to learn more about your ergonomic needs, ask an expert to explain the following five facts further.
Adjustable Height is Best
An adjustable seating option is always the best way to go, because everyone has different requirements when it comes to the height of where they sit. Once the seat is adjusted, your feet should sit flatly on the floor. Also, your back should be straight, and your shoulders should be level when your arms are on the armrest. Make sure the chair you choose comes with a pneumatic adjuster that allows you to shift the height; typically a height adjustment range of 16 to 21 inches from the floor to the top of the seat is suitable for most users. If you are shorter or taller than average, you may need to look for an option that is designed specifically for your needs, however this height range should work for most people.
Determine Seat Depth and Width
Where you sit in the chair also makes a big difference in your comfort and overall spinal health, not to mention workplace productivity and job satisfaction. When sitting down, you should feel completely supported by the seat. Most people will be comfortable with a width between 17 and 20 inches, but if you have an unusual body shape, make sure to consult with an expert before making a purchase. At the end of the day, you are not going to be comfortable unless you are able to sit with your back against the rest and with a few inches between the back of your knees and the edge of the chair. A seat that allows you to adjust the angle forward is also a must for intensive task purposes.
Consider the Backrest
It's also imperative to consider the measurements and quality of the backrest when purchasing office chairs. In order to be ergonomically correct, the backrest should measure between 13 and 19 inches high with enough support to conform to your spine's natural curvature. If you have lower back issues, it is especially important that you consult with a chair expert about this issue. The backrest should be particularly supportive of your lumbar region. Also, it should be height adjustable and/or have an air lumbar support so that you can properly fit the chair to the shape of your back and determine the amount of support needed in your lumbar region.
Material Matters
The seat and backrest material of your office chair should be comfortable. For most, standard seat foam will be comfortable enough for all day sitting. For those that need firmer or softer support, look for chairs that offer memory foam or triple density foam. Mesh seating is advisable for those that want to have a more breathable sitting experience, which can be advantageous in warmer climates. Having a comfortable seat can make all the difference on a long workday.
Last, but Not Least, Look Into Lumbar Support
Any good chair expert will probably tell you that lumbar support is the most important aspect of any ergonomic office chair. If you don't have proper lumbar support, you will inevitably start slouching, and over time, this can put a great deal of strain on the lower spine, eventually flattening its natural curvature. So, make sure your chair is adjustable, and consult an expert about your unique ergonomic needs.
If you have any doubts about an office chair prior to purchasing, especially when it involves whether it will be a good fit for you and your needs, it is best to consult with an expert prior to purchasing. They can help you make an informed decision and will make you feel more comfortable with the purchase, especially if it is for a more expensive ergonomic office chair.

Office Chairs - Are Higher Grade Fabrics Better?
There comes a time when every office needs to update their current office chairs for newer models. Whether your old models are breaking down, or your company simply wants to add a fresh look to the office, new office chairs are purchased for a number of reasons. The purchaser must keep certain things in mind when determining which office chairs will be best suited for their staff such as ergonomics, adjustments, pre-existing medical issues, and if any employees have special needs. While this may seem like a tedious and arduous to complete, it can turn more fun when it comes to selecting the fabric for the chair. Cheaper office chairs will have a small number of fabrics to choose between, however high quality ergonomic chairs often come with the option to select from a variety of higher grade fabrics.
Most people ask, are high grade fabrics actually better than the standard fabric that comes on an office chair? The answer to this is yes.
Perhaps the greatest benefit that can be achieved from selecting a higher grade fabric is the certainty that it will uphold much longer than a standard fabric. It is easy to forget how often we slide in and out of our chairs on a daily basis, and each time this occurs your clothing rubs against the fabric which causes the fabric to wear over time. While this is often not advertised, fabrics are rated for abrasion resistance, light-fastness, and colorfastness. Abrasion is the ability of a fabric to withstand damage from wear and rubbing whereas colorfastness refers to rubbing off of color from the fabric onto clothing, hands or other materials and can occur under wet or dry conditions. Light fastness is the degree to which fabric will retain its color when exposed to light. The higher the fabric grade, the more apt it is to avoid damage from light, abrasion, and colors running and the more suitable it will be for ensuring the chairs last for years to come. Higher grade fabrics also come with protective finish as well as backing, making them even more durable.
The fabric chosen to upholster a chair is the most important part of the chairs appearance and plays an important part in its visual appeal. After all, the upholstery is about 80% of the overall chair so it is essential to choose your fabric color wisely. Standard grade one fabrics are typically plain and come in monotonous shades that are the most common among business work places such as black, navy, gray, and burgundy. Higher grade fabrics usually are available in a variety of different colors and patterns that stray away from traditional styling. They also come in a variety of materials such as vinyl, faux leather, leather, antimicrobial vinyl, silica, and other high quality fabric upholstery materials.
With grade 1 fabric, you have a very limited selection of fabrics to choose from and sometimes the colors that are available will not blend in with your pre-existing office furniture. With the vast array of high grade fabrics available, you are able to select from more choices that may correspond better with your other furniture or the overall color scheme of your business.
A higher fabric grade can also mean that the overall chair will be more comfortable. This type of fabric is able to stretch more than standard fabric and therefor provides a softer sit. The fabric material is also usually softer to touch and feels more comfortable when you are seated because of this.
Whether you are looking for fabric that will last over time, a good-looking office chair, additional comfort, or simply to match the color of your other furniture higher grade fabrics are truly better.

The Difference Between High Quality Office Chairs and Cheap Office Chairs
With many struggling to make ends meet and businesses closing on a daily basis, the need for more affordable products is at an all time high. Both home customers and business customers are looking for ways to cut corners to save money at any expen
se, even if it compromises their health and well-being. Many companies have capitalized on this need, selling sub-par products that they are able to sell at a discounted price due to the inexpensive materials used in construction. An office chair is a piece of furniture every home office and business office can not do without and unfortunately, in order to save money many sacrifice their comfort by purchasing cheap office chairs. While you may save money in the short-term, in the long-term your chair is likely to last a year to a year and a half before you will find yourself having to spend the same amount of money again on a brand new chair. It is advisable to look at what features and qualities of an office chair will ensure that it will last for years to come.
Manufacturer's Warranty
The manufacturer's warranty is the number one indication of how long you can expect your office chair to last. A good office chair should last you up to six years, any warranty that covers the chair for less than six years in length is probably worth passing over. The warranty is a guarantee made by the manufacturer and shows how confident they are in their product. No manufacturer wants to continue to deal with issues customers may experience from a poorly designed office chair, and will only warrant their products for the period of time that most of their previous chairs have lasted. Be certain to read the fine print of warranties prior to purchasing as some manufacturers claim to have a lifetime guarantee but then in the fine print point out that this only covers one part and the rest of the parts are only warranted for a year. This can be deceiving but is a tactic that is often used to make their warranty look more appealing.
In the office furniture industry you truly get what you pay for. If you see an office chair that looks like a deal that is too good to be true, most likely it probably is. Cheap office chairs will lack in adjustability, not allowing the user to fully adjust the chair to meet their body's needs and will instead lead to unnecessary aches and pains throughout the work day. They will also be constructed of cheaper materials that are likely to break over time which will constantly need to be replaced in order to have a functional office chair. Unfortunately, when one part of an office chair stops functioning correctly or breaks, the whole entire chair is comprised and essentially useless.
Chair Features and Adjustments
There are a few common features that will indicate a cheap office chair. If it is deemed to be upholstered in caressoft or faux leather, this is essentially a plastic mixed with vinyl upholstery, less comfortable and much less softness to the touch than real leather. Another part of the chair to look at is the base. Most cheap office chairs will have a plastic base which is much more likely to crack or break over time than an aluminum or chrome base. It is also crucial to look at the features and adjustments a chair has prior to purchasing. If the chair only allows for seat height adjustment, there is no guarantee that the seat will fit your legs correctly and the back may be set at an awkward position that leads to back pain rather than helping to alleviate back pain.
The next time you or your company is in the market for a new office chair or chairs be certain not to skip on quality to save money, you could compromise your health as well as others. Most spend more time at work than sleeping, it is best to make the investment on creating a comfortable and productive work environment.

- The Japanese air bag supplier has so far resisted a nationwide U.S. recall, saying it could divert replacement parts away from the high-humidity regions thought to need them most.
- Takata has until Tuesday to respond to the regulator's order.
- Previously: NHTSA gives Takata ultimatum

- Cars had been recalled only in areas along the Gulf coast with high humidity, but the NHTSA says it is basing the decision on a recent incident that happened outside of those areas.

Industry group gives smaller food processors a break

- Email | Twitter | Google+
The Northwest Food Processors Association has significantly loosened its dues policy for smaller members.
Companies with annual sales of less than $1 million can now join the group for free, NFPA announced this week.
Ordinarily, the group charges its members fees based on percentages of annual sales.
"The association's primary purpose is to strengthen the competitiveness of the Northwest food processing industry," said Mark Dunn, NWFPA's board chairman, in a statement. "By making basic membership services readily available to even the smallest food processors, the overall industry becomes stronger through greater food safety knowledge and a more robust processor network."
Those members will get members-only discounts on events, education and training products. They will not, however, enjoy voting rights or be able to serve on committees.
