Taking Pictures in Public
Written by: Tiffany Joyce
Last weekend I went to our area Farmer's Market. As is my habit, I took my camera along with me. There's just something about the rows of baskets and piles of produce that make me want to capture the color and just plain goodness of fresh fruits and vegetables.
A couple of times I got some strange looks from people – I swear I could read their minds, "Why on EARTH is that woman taking pictures of tomatoes???" One of the booth vendors even asked my why I was taking pictures of his stand, and wanted to know what the pictures were going to be used for. I happily explained that the pictures were primarily for my personal use, but that I might put them up on the photography website that I write for. He was happy to hear that and gave me a free sample (perks of the job!).
This exchange got me thinking about something that I read recently on a blog that I visit, Unphotographable. The author of Unphotographable writes short stories and descriptions of the pictures that he didn't take. In his words, "Unphotographable is a catalog of exceptional mistakes. Photos never taken that weren't meant to be forgotten. Opportunities missed. Simple failures. Occasions when I wished I'd taken the picture, or not forgotten the camera, or had been brave enough to click the shutter." In one of his recent posts, he describes watching a photographer on the streets of London who was taking pictures of the urban scene, and was yelled at by a passerby for taking pictures of people without their permission (the entry is here, if you're interested).
It's just good manners, if you're taking pictures of someone's establishment, place of business, products, and the like, to ask permission to do so before snapping away. But what about in public places? What about crowds, and public streets, and sporting arenas or other events? When you're taking a picture of such places, people that you don't know and who aren't the intended subject of your photo are bound to get in the shot. I myself would be quite surprised to find a photo of myself somewhere out there, belonging to a complete stranger and taken without my knowledge. But I understand things like that happen all the time.
Now, if you're concerned about the legalities of it all, it is the photographer's right to take pictures in public of what they see, as long as they respect a "reasonable expectation of privacy". Here is a good resource that explains a photographer's legal right to take public photographs, and Photo Secrets also has a good article on the law for photographers.
I thought I would start up the discussion here. How do you feel about taking pictures of people you don't know? How would you feel if you found a picture of yourself you didn't know about? Join the discussion in the comments!

Mazda Parts
Like many automakers, the Toyo Cork Kogyo Corporation, which began as a machine manufacturer in 1920, developed weapons technology during WW2. Based in Japan, the company released vehicles early in its tenure, but it wasn't until 1960 that the Mazda automobiles began rolling off of assembly lines. The R360 was a moderate success in the Japanese marketplace, but engines made up a bulk of the company's workload until 1984. The time, to that point, was well-spent, however, as the development of the rotary engine has powered Mazda into the upper echelon of automakers today.
Founded by Jujiro Matsuda, Mazda's RX-7 was one of the first models to truly make a splash in the international marketplace. When Ford took an interest in the company in the '60s, a relationship that would continue to flourish for decades, the brand began to grow along with the market's interest.
Popular Models
From the RX-7, which has had an on-again/off-again love affair with sports coupe enthusiasts for decades, to the now-popular Mazda 3 series, the automaker continues to capitalize on younger drivers and their interest in the easily modified Mazda offerings. The Mazda Millenia was the company's attempt at creating a luxury automobile, and while the model enjoyed moderate success, the sportier coupes continue to drive international sales.
Today, Mazda is at the forefront of the "green auto" movement. By using bio-fabrics in their interior designs and experimenting with various engine technologies, the company is doing what they can to keep the power that the rotary engine provides while reducing the amount of fuel required to power it.
Mazda is also involved in several motorsports events, which has helped to keep the automaker relevant with performance vehicles. Models such as the Miata continue to remain popular with amateur racers, which bodes well for both the present and future prospects of the company.
Go-Parts.com has all the Mazda replacement parts necessary to keep your Mazda performing perfectly. Because many of the models feature sports packages, drivers often take their cars on some exiting stretches of road. But, this can lead to some exterior damage in terms of poor driving conditions and put quite a bit of stress on the cooling systems. When these systems begin to wear down, you can find quality parts via our platform.
With a limited lifetime warranty and our stellar customer care representatives, you'll enjoy your Go-Parts.com experience every time - we guarantee it.

Moms and dads love to caress and touch their babies skin. This natural instinct has been shown to be essential for adequate organic and psychological development. Parents often use products like lotions and creams, during or after bathtime, to massage and help keep baby's skin soft; but are her favorite cleansers and lotions safe?
The Infant Massage and Nurturing Touch course was developed by the Vimala McClure, founder of International Association of Infant Massage. It is a series of massage strokes that are a mix of Indian and Swedish massage, Reflexology and Yoga. Eastern cultures have been using massage for thousands of years to promote infant development. The complete Infant Massage and Loving Touch course is taught over 5 weeks.
Many parents wonder how old a baby has to be before starting massage. The great news is that no baby is too young to be massaged! Even newborn infants can enjoy the benefits of loving touch. The sense of touch has been detected in human embryos less than eight weeks old. Though the baby is less than an inch long and has no eyes or ears, her skin sensitivity is already highly developed. Nature begins the baby's massage long before she's born. First she rocks and floats, then slowly her world surrounds her more and more closely.
Welcome to Infant Massage NYC, your source for the latest breakthroughs in baby massage, infant development, new parent support and NICU insights. Infant Massage NYC aspires to help parents become in-tune with their baby's needs through infant massage education. Infant massage is all about reading your baby's cues and responding accordingly. Nurturing touch and massage provides parents and babies with a relaxing activity to reconnectafter a long day's work. Massage can help babies acheive a calm state and help transition them to sleep. Parents have reported their babies to sleep more soundly when they incorporate massage into their child's daily routine. In today's society when parents return to work soon after the birth of their newborn, time for bonding and rest is increasingly precious. Finding time for nurturing touch and massage can be a valuable tool to foster a beautiful and loving parent-child relationship based on relaxation and communication.

Wow ... we have a telephone directory which is quite helpful. This could be a great opportunity for her to learn her writing skills. You could give her a special pad of paper to take to school. Maybe you can have pre-written in the pad...
Child's Name:
Mom's Name:
Dad's Name:
Last Name:
Explain to her it's her responsibility to get as much information as possible if she wants them at the party. Now, maybe tell her to say she just wants this information just because so the other kids do not catch wind of a party they're not invited to. Could always use summer break, which is coming up too fast, as the reason for requests.
Good luck. I hate trying to organize parties, parents can be so rude.

Show overlapping lines
April 28 2008 |
4 comments
Categories: ArcGIS Methods, Map Data
I'm trying to create a map of the different bus routes around a certain area. I have the shapefiles for them but they overlap at many streets. When this happens, I see the shapefile that is on top with small hints of other routes peeking out from below. Also, though the routes run on the same streets, they constantly overlap and intersect each other.
How do I get the bus routes to display nicely so that they are side-by-side, rather than right on top of each other?
Mapping Center Answer:
It's not an easy problem, though we eventually found a way to do this using ArcGIS 9.2 and the Schematics extension. We wrote it up late last year in a blog entry called Create route maps with ArcGIS Schematics extension.

Collision disrupts downtown Greenville traffic
A woman was taken to the hospital Monday afternoon after a medical issue caused a collision in downtown Greenville, according to police.
Police said a car driven by an elderly woman, who is possibly diabetic, rolled into the intersection of Main and East North streets. Her car was then struck by another car and ended up rolling into a tree.
The woman was transported to the hospital for the medical issue, not for injuries related to the accident, police said.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- Chief Executive magazine has named Tennessee one of the four top states for business.
Tennessee ranked fourth in the annual ratings for the second straight year. Others in the top five were Texas, Florida, North Carolina and Indiana.
Bill Hagerty, commissioner of the Department of Economic and Community Development, said the state continuously works to create and maintain a business friendly environment that encourages companies to grow and invest in Tennessee.

Abuse of Alzheimer's Patients Common Among Family Caregivers
Posted By admin On March 9, 2009 @ 11:00 am In Articles,Caregiving | No Comments
March 9, 2009
More than half of those who cared for a relative with Alzheimer's or another form of dementia admitted to researchers that they had mistreated them, an alarming study from the U.K. reports. Most of the abuse consisted of occasionally yelling at or disparaging the person with Alzheimer's.
The study, from researchers at University College in London, found that the strain of caregiving can take its toll, even among close family members. While about half of the 220 caregivers surveyed reported making occasional verbal threats to those they cared for, about a third said they had committed more frequent verbal abuse. Only three of those surveyed admitted to more serious physical abuse like hitting, slapping or shaking.
"Many people think about elder abuse in terms of 'lashing out' and other similar acts, but abuse can be as simple as shouting or swearing at the person being cared for," said lead author Claudia Cooper of the university's department of mental health sciences. The findings were published in the British Medical Journal.
The authors noted that the results were not surprising, given that people with Alzheimer's are typically cared for in the home by family or friends who often have little or no outside help or support, and the stress of caregiving can be overwhelming at times.
"This is the first representative survey to ask family carers about abuse," Dr. Cooper said. "We found few cases of physical or frequent abuse, although those with the most abusive behavior may have been reluctant to report it or take part in the study in the first place."
The researchers said that health care professionals tended to avoid the issue when talking to relatives.
They wrote: "Professionals are often reluctant to talk about abuse, perhaps because of a fear that discussing and acknowledging it would necessitate referral of an adult for protection and trigger a punitive response such as removal of the person with dementia.
"This may result in an 'all or nothing' approach to abuse, where it is ignored until the problem becomes serious."
"Similarly, clinicians may not consider abuse when seeing most carers, if abuse if perceived as a rare action purposefully perpetrated by amoral abusers."
Study co-author Gill Livingston said that it's important to recognize the problem of abuse among family members who care for a loved one with Alzheimer's.
"Our findings suggest that any strategy for safeguarding vulnerable adults must be directed towards families who provide the majority of care for older people, rather than exclusively at paid carers," he said.
"The vast majority of family carers do a fantastic job under very difficult circumstances," he added. "Health care professionals can be reluctant to ask about abuse by family carers, but this attitude can be very unhelpful to carers who are worried about their own actions and want to talk about them and get help. Considering elder abuse as a spectrum of behaviors could help professionals to ask about it and therefore offer assistance."
The toll of caring for a loved one with Alzheimer's is known to carry an increased risk of physical illness and depression in caregivers. Enlisting other family members and friends to help with daily caregiving tasks can be an important part of helping to maintain mental equanimity and lessen stress among caregivers.
Counseling and support of family members can also be of significant benefit for those caring for a loved one with Alzheimer's, research shows. [See the ALZinfo.org story, "Counseling and Support Benefits Alzheimer's Caregivers [1]"]

By Lawrence E. Dubé
March 14 --The National Labor Relations Board filed a petition March 13 asking the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit to rehear and reverse a 2-1 panel decision rejecting the NLRB's position that class and collective action waivers in an employer's mandatory arbitration policy interfere with employee rights under federal labor law (D.R. Horton Inc. v. NLRB, 5th Cir., No. 12-60031, petition for rehearing 3/13/14).
The NLRB asked for a panel or en banc rehearing of the December 2013 decision that denied enforcement of a board order finding that homebuilder D.R. Horton Inc. violated Section 8(a)(1) of the National Labor Relations Act. The board held that the company illegally maintained and enforced a mandatory arbitration agreement that waived the rights of employees to participate in class or collective actions concerning their employment-related claims.
Calling the issue "exceptionally important," the NLRB argued in the petition that the panel majority misconstrued the effect of U.S. Supreme Court decisions in several non-labor cases and failed to recognize that the "distinctive character" of the NLRA is its guarantee of protection for employees who act in concert for their mutual aid or benefit.
In January 2012, NLRB Chairman Mark Gaston Pearce (D) and then-Member Craig Becker (D) decided that Horton's mandatory arbitration procedure violated Section 8(a)(1) of the NLRA because it interfered with the statutory right of employees to engage in "concerted activity" for their mutual aid or protection (357 N.L.R.B. No. 184, 192 LRRM 1137 (2012); 5 DLR AA-1, 1/9/12). Brian E. Hayes (R), the only other board member at the time, was recused and did not participate in deciding the case.
The panel 2-1 rejected the NLRB's view that maintaining the arbitration agreement was an unfair labor practice (D.R. Horton Inc. v. NLRB, 737 F.3d 344, 197 LRRM 2637, 2013 BL 335349 (5th Cir. 2013); 233 DLR AA-1, 12/3/13).
Writing for the majority with Judge Carolyn Dineen King, Judge Leslie H. Southwick said the NLRB "did not give proper weight to the Federal Arbitration Act," which made the agreement enforceable. The National Labor Relations Act, which protects the right of employees to engage in concerted activity, "should not be understood to contain a congressional command overriding the application of the FAA," Southwick wrote.
Southwick said the NLRB contends "the NLRA is essentially sui generis," arguing "[t]hat act's fundamental precept is the right for employees to act collectively."
But the panel majority said "there are numerous decisions holding that there is no right to use class procedures under various employment-related statutory frameworks."
The panel denied enforcement of the board's ruling that the arbitration agreement violated Section 8(a)(1) of the act. Judge James E. Graves dissented from the panel ruling on the issue.
In its petition for rehearing, the NLRB wrote that rehearing "is warranted on this exceptionally important issue because the panel majority erred in finding Gilmer v. Interstate/Johnson Lane Corp., 500 U.S. 20, 55 FEP Cases 1116 (1991), and AT&T Mobility LLC v. Concepcion, 131 S. Ct. 1740, 2011 BL 110648 (2011), determinative of this case."
The two Supreme Court decisions did not address or decide "the distinct NLRA issue presented here," the petition argued.
The NLRB said the Fifth Circuit panel majority acknowledged that it owed some deference to the board's interpretation of employee rights under the federal labor law, but it failed to give any effect to the board's analysis that the right to engage in concerted activity through class or collective action is a "core right" under the NLRA.
The majority found that Gilmer and Concepcion were controlling, but the NLRB wrote that the cases did not raise issues concerning NLRA rights or employees' concerted activity, and they were therefore not determinative of the dispute before the Fifth Circuit.
The NLRB argued that courts have determined that the rights of employees under some other statutes, including the Age Discrimination in Employment Act and the Fair Labor Standards Act, do not include substantive rights to proceed through collective action and do not override the Federal Arbitration Act's support for the enforcement of private arbitration agreements. However, the board argued, the NLRA is different.
"The distinctive character of the NLRA--in contrast to individual rights statutes like the ADEA or the FLSA--is that it does vest employees with a substantive right to act in concert to protect their interests as employees," the board wrote.
Arguing that collective actions are an alternative to other forms of protests like strikes that are protected by the National Labor Relations Act, the NLRB said "collective action of this sort seeks to unite workers generally and to lay a foundation for more effective collective bargaining."
Sanctioning the enforcement of D.R. Horton's arbitration agreement "would strip that collective right away by denying employees their NLRA right to litigate their work-related claims on a collective basis in any forum, whether arbitral or judicial," the NLRB said.
Fifth Circuit rules do not permit other parties to an appeal proceeding to respond to a petition for rehearing unless ordered by the court to do so.
NLRB attorneys Ruth E. Burdick and Kira Dellinger Vol filed the petition for the board.

Ever seen a Hanukkah menorah made entirely of seashells? How about one that weighs 4,000 pounds? Take an illuminating tour of this annual Festival of Lights as it's celebrated around the world.
A Hanukkah menorah (also known as a "chanukiah") glows in front of the Western Wall, Judaism's holiest site, in Jerusalem's Old City. The 8-day festival commemorates the rededication of the Second Temple in Jerusalem during the 2nd century B.C.

The Honey Pot, by Alan Riddell, 1969Since the grand opening of Loft 112 it seems that the center for writers and artists has something great going on every night. Whether it's musical performance, comedy show, literary reading, or just hanging out in a place with good vibes, the Loft certainly seems to be the creative hive it was opened to become. This Friday, June 27, Loft 112 is hosting what looks to be an extra special event:
"The Vancouver-based painter, photographer, performance artist and curator Michael Morris will speak about concrete poetry and the creation of the mail art archive Image Bank and other networks. This event is free and open to all, starts at 5:30 p.m., and will be followed by a reception."
Before going any further I should mention that the beautiful piece of typewriter art to the right (The Honey Pot, 1969) is not the work of Michael Morris, but Alan Riddell. For a look at Morris' beautiful work, go here. I've thrown The Honey Pot in here to show my all-time favorite piece of concrete poetry and to celebrate the 2014 publication of 'Typewriter Art: a modern anthology'. The library copy of this long-awaited collection of poetry and art created entirely using typewriters will be here soon and I wanted to make sure all concrete poetry/typewriter art lovers out there had a heads-up...
In this book readers will find not only Alan Riddell's beautiful Honey Pot, but also more than a century's worth of the most innovative, interesting, and beautiful pieces of typewriter art from all over the world. From the butterfly of Flora F.F. Stacey (1898) all the way up to the impossibly fluid work of Stephanie Strange.
Also included is the work of Calgary Poet Laureate derek beaulieu, who, as this blog comes full circle, is a volunteer on the team that turns the wheel of Loft 112 and likely had something to do with the visit of Michael Morris. According to the anthology, beaulieu is "currently archiving a great many examples of typewriter/visual poetry" in order to salvage so much of the work that only appeared in obscure journals in the 1960s and 70s.
Here are some of the latest titles in Canadian poetry to land on our shelves.

THE CALGARY PROJECT: A City Map in Verse and Visual
"How do you get to know a city? What can you learn from a map? The Calgary Project reflects this moment of time: being the Culture Capital, having our very own Poet Laureate, surviving the Flood that redrew the City. It offers a glimpse into the artists' and poets' perception of Calgary right now. The voices of our city include poets and songwriters, rappers and sculptors, painters and fibre artists, photographers and children. The artists featured here are not just the best in our city - they are indeed some of the finest in the world."
A Bitter Mood of Clouds, by Vivian Hansen
Begin in Denmark with a strange birth, experience the life of Anne turned Arne, a hermaphrodite. Journey then to Alberta where Vivian Hansen hears her ancestors and the remarkable story of Anne. This intricately braided long poem is delicate, forceful, and unique. A Bitter Mood of Clouds is woven with supernatural voices, history, and the depth of where we come from and how those connections reach into the present.
Bite Down Little Whisper, by Don Domanski
From a master poet, meditative lines running like veins through the dark grace of being alive. Governor General's Award-winning poet Don Domanski's new collection, Bite Down Little Whisper, delves into the interconnectedness of all life with spiritual gravitas and powerful mindfulness. These are poems brimming with mythological and scientific energies, with a multi-dimensionality that opens itself to both complexity and clarity. Domanski shows us seams and fastenings that unite our longings with the earth itself, with the nonhuman vitality that surrounds us. The heart's need for unity and reverence is present in these poems as a whisper we hear in occasional moments of quietude, when it's possible to perceive the workings of a larger existence.
Complicity, by Adam Sol
A dazzling and exhilarating new collection of poetry from an award-winning Canadian poet. For fans of Ken Babstock, A.F. Moritz, and Karen Solie. Award-winning poet Adam Sol's fourth collection is a meditation on complicity. By turns intimate and lyrical, experimental and outlandish, the collection focuses us on how we cannot escape the troubling structures that determine our lives. How do we identify ourselves with communities - national, cultural, or local - while aware of the violence which underlies their arrangements? How do we pursue love when we know how fraught and imbalanced gender politics is? How do we continue to value art despite the prevailing rhetoric that considers it a marginal discourse? The poems are funny, allusive, off-kilter, and sonically rich, while crucially interrogating, lit with, the contemporary ethos.

Directing Herbert White: Poems by James Franco
James Franco's debut poetry collection is set to be released on April 19, published in Canada by House of Anansi. Watch him talk about it on The Tonight Show.
When it comes to searching for poetry and short stories, or any book really, there's nothing quite like browsing the shelves of your local library, waiting for the books to reach out and grab you, but when it comes to essay-writing season there's no substitute for the convenience of a good, solid, academic database.
The timing couldn't be any better for our newest, and my new favorite, E-Library resource. Last month one of my co-workers gracefully introduced me to the Poetry & Short Story Reference Centre in the blog "In Search of Short Stories" and I've been hooked ever since. Also since then, Alice Munro won the Nobel Prize. Then Lynn Coady won the Giller for her short story collection 'Hellgoing'.
A good year for the form often considered inferior to the novel.
Regardless of where we stand on that useless debate, any one looking to master the craft of fiction is going to find everything they need to dig deep into these shorter forms, both classic and contemporary. To be specific:
Whether you are a student of literature or a teacher (and if you're a writer you're likely striving for both), the Poetry & Short Story Reference Centre may become your new go-to spot for pretty much everything. Give it a whirl!
A mild layer of confused distress sometimes settles over the days of August. It's the month when kids can't even enjoy summer knowing it's quickly coming to an end. Record companies and book publishers and movie producers save all their good stuff for later. August is summer's December - better when it's over. August is a vague, lazy, sloth waiting for the forward drive of September. If this sounds too cynical, take a look at Slate Magazine's article titled: "August: Let's get rid of it", by David Plotz, and you'll see it's all very real. I strongly support Plotz's idea to extend both July and September by ten days, reducing August to a ten-day breeze. The modification would leave enough time for the month's #1 attraction: the three-day People's Poetry Festival, which will leave its bright, inviting mark on Calgary from August 16 - 18.
The Calgary Public Library is a proud supporter of The People's Poetry Festival and its valiant mission "to tear apart the notion that poetry is reserved for academic elites and enlightened beatniks". On August 17th our Louise Riley branch will host "Alphabet Soup" - a poetry workshop to help you craft your own abecedarian, or alphabetical poem (for example, look below!). The workshop runs from 11am to 12:30 and we still have a few spots left. Register here.
Here, now, is my first rushed attempt at an abecedarian poem...

Curtain of July
Delaying our
Eager push to

Instead of

Winding down our month dedicated to the inexhaustible, indispensable art of poetry, we bring you five exciting new and upcoming releases already here or on their way to library shelves. This small sample is 100% Canadian, proving not only that the future of poetry in our country is in strong, capable hands, but also that Canada produces some of the most energetic, profound, and brilliant poets you'll find anywhere in the world.
Unknown Actor, by Jason Christie
When poetry meets theatre in the mind of Jason Christie, a smashing performance results! Then as the curtains close, Christie sneaks off the stage, through the scenery, and out into the wilds of the Internet — and straight into the footlights and teleprompters of human experience. Like a method actor in character long after the credits have rolled, off set, off his rocker, Christie runs wild from Goethe's Faust to Burton's, through 1984 and B movies from the '80s and back again. Beneath his offerings to the actor — questionable acting lessons, dubious plot treatments — lurks a deep unease at our accepted practices of looking at each other, kid. Get out the popcorn and turn on your mobile device. This is going to get dramatic.

The Hottest Summer in Recorded History, by Elizabeth Bachinsky
With her signature eye for irony and sensuality, Elizabeth Bachinsky's latest book of poetry, The Hottest Summer in Recorded History, balances a youthful playfulness with observational maturity. Bachinsky strings together seemingly non-sequitur images, capturing in these poems the commonality of raw intimacy, dark humour and a sense of immediacy. Her vision is unapologetically bold, finding the erotic in everyday moments and keenly capturing the complicated truths of life in a powerfully candid style.
- excerpt from Nightwood Edtions
Whirr & Click, by Micheline Maylor
"Micheline Maylor's many-textured poems explore the liminal space where finite life and infinite time expand and contract into one another. In a duet of contrasts, memory, coming of age, danger, the erotic, and love twine into elegy and wonder. Time plays a featuring role and acts to freeze moments exactly as they arrive and simultaneously stretches experience into ungraspable infinity. Whether fierce or tender, direct or oblique, the poems in Whirr and Click are bold in their exposures and generous in their doorways. The final long poem, "Starfish," is one of the most moving and memorable elegies I have read. One finishes the poem, and the book, feeling one has come to know many people, including oneself." - Stephanie Bolster
-Frontenac House
The Politics of Knives, by Jonathan Ball
('Nook Note: Okay. So this one is not exactly hot off the press, released in September 2012, but it recently enjoyed its Calgary launch at filling Station's 20th Anniversary Collective Retrospective on April 25th, so let's call it new!...)
If David Lynch crashed into Franz Kafka in a dark alley, the result might look like The Politics of Knives. Moving from shattered surrealism to disembowelled films, these poems land us in a limbo between the intellectual and the visceral, between speaking and screaming. Finding the language of violence and the violence in language, Jonathan Ball becomes the Stephen King of verse.
- excerpt from Coach House Books
Under the Keel, by Michael Crummey
Michael Crummey's first collection in a decade has something for everyone: Love and marriage and airport grief; how not to get laid in a Newfoundland mining town; total immersion baptism; the grand machinery of decay; migrant music and invisible crowns and mortifying engagements with babysitters; the transcendent properties of home brew. Whether charting the merciless complications of childhood, or the unpredictable consolations of middle age, these are poems of magic and ruin. Under the Keel affirms Crummey's place as one of our necessary writers.

Like a good song, poetry sticks with us. Whether for nostalgic comfort, inspirational drive, sheer marvel at a poet's ability, or an intangible emotional response that only a certain combination of words can evoke, we need poetry the same way we need food - for fuel, for growth, for indulgence.
In the light of National Poetry Month I've been hassling friends at the library to find out which poems they turn to first. So here's the 2013 Staff Picks for Poetry!
Yasna's Pick - Jacques Prevert
from "Blood & Feathers"
Lark of memory
dead bird of mist
you should not have come
to eat from my hand
the grains of oblivion.
from "somewhere i have never travelled, gladly beyond"
(i do not know what it is about you that closes
and opens; only something in me understands
the voice of your eyes is deeper than all roses)
nobody, not even the rain, has such small hands
Sarah's Pick - Rosemary Griebel
from "Silence Broken"
I believe a poem is the only way
to save life's silence
from being all it leaves behind.
Accompany me, and when I open
my mouth may the sloshing ocean,
deaf Beethoven, and the gods in their balloons
overhead, lean forward and inhale.
Julia's Pick - Emily Dickinson
"Hope" is the thing with feathers -
That perches in the soul -
And sings the tune without the words -
And never stops - at all -
Get your hands on any of these poets' work by clicking the book covers above. Happy Poetry Month!
Does the mention of National Poetry Month send you running in the opposite direction, fleeing from nightmarish visions of sweating over a Robert Frost poem to finish high school english? Would you rather read a pile of owner's manuals than this year's Griffin Prize nominees? Is poetry misunderstood and underappreciated, or impossible to understand and intended only for the highest of high brow academics?
Before we start wishing for April to fly by so we can get to Asthma Awareness Month, STOP, take a deep breath, and consider getting excited about poetry. Here's three reasons why:
The 10th annual Calgary Spoken Word Festival is already underway. Not only does this festival bring in poets from all over the world, it also offers poetry workshops, giving us a chance for hands-on learning from some of the masters of the craft. Take a look at the cover story of this week's FFWD for an in-depth look at this year's festival
April or not, the world of poetry is in good hands. Stay tuned to the 'Nook all month for recommended reads, local event highlights, poet profiles, and please leave a comment below to let us know how you'll be celebrating National Poetry Month. But remember that April is also Distracted Driving Awareness Month, so put the poem down when you get behind the wheel!

Topic Outline
Labor is the physiological process by which a fetus is expelled from the uterus to the outside world. This topic will discuss the process of normal labor and delivery. Management of labor and delivery is reviewed separately. (See "Management of normal labor and delivery".)
Labor is a physiological event involving a sequential, integrated set of changes within the myometrium, decidua, and uterine cervix that occurs sometimes gradually over a period of days to weeks and sometimes rapidly over minutes to hours and culminates in delivery of the fetus. Biochemical connective tissue changes in the uterine cervix appear to precede uterine contractions and cervical dilation, and all of these events usually occur before rupture of the fetal membranes. These physiological changes are discussed in detail elsewhere. (See "Physiology of parturition".)
Uterine contractions during active labor have two major functions: to dilate the cervix and to push the fetus through the birth canal. However, the fetus is not merely the passive recipient of these forces, rather, its ability to successfully negotiate the pelvis is dependent upon the complex interaction of three mechanical variables, known as the "three Ps": the powers, the passenger, and the passage.
The effect of maternal obesity on labor is discussed separately. (See "The impact of obesity on female fertility and pregnancy".)
Powers (uterine contractions) — Powers refer to the force generated by the uterine musculature during contractions. It is generally believed that the more optimal the powers, the more likely a successful outcome; however, there are no data to support this statement.

5 Dividend-Captures With Option Trades
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Using options with dividend paying stocks is a powerful way to mitigate risk, while stepping in front of an upcoming dividend. Let's review stocks worth investing in offering dividends.
I am interested in dividend capturing primarily for the dividend, but there is also a chance the price could fall enough that I end up owning it for longer than planned. As a result, I must be sure this is a company I wouldn't mind holding for a while. Assuming I am not willing to own a dividend-paying company if the price falls, I pass and move on to one I will be happy holding, knowing that if the shares fall in price, I will be comfortable owning shares for a longer period.
Automatic Data Processing (ADP)
Automatic Data Processing provides business-outsourcing solutions. The company operates in three segments: Employer Services, Professional Employer Organization (PEO) Services and Dealer Services. The company was founded in 1949 and is headquartered in Roseland, New Jersey.Yield: 2.94%
Dividend Amount: $0.40
Ex-Dividend Date: June 06, 2012
Beta: 0.69 Strategy: Buy Automatic Data Processing stock and offer to sell the June $52.50 strike or lower call for 42 cents over the intrinsic value. The option may get exercised early for a gain. In almost all cases, I sell the call option first to ensure the stock option leg is complete. If not, after qualifying for the dividend, I will attempt to close out the trade with a gain of near 12 cents, plus the dividend earned. I review many call strikes and estimate the expected probabilities based in part on beta, bid, offer and volume traded the current day, open interest, and time value/implied volatility. Call options offer some protection from possible adverse moves in the stock price and provide offset revenue when the options do not fully cover down moves in the stock. Income is welcomed, but not needed from option premiums, so a break even from option premiums received/stock losses ratio is a win. When learning a new trading strategy it is better to use a simulated trading account first. Stockpickr is a great tool to practice new strategies and learning about the market. I use Stockpickr and recommend it. It is easy to make mistakes when starting out on a new strategy and mistakes cost a lot less with a simulated account. After a level of confidence is built, then it may be time to move into a real money account. Automatic Data Processing upcoming stock dividend appears to be attractive and worth the time and effort to capture. A requirement I have is to be able to sell a call option in either the front, or first back month that is in the money, and with enough premium that I will not object to an early exercise notice (which does happen from time to time, but profitable if everything is done according to plan). It is important to sell the call option hedge at or near the asking price for at least the minimum amount over intrinsic value. I don't want the option hedge unless the sale will provide at least the minimum 42 cents over intrinsic value. If my shares are called away the day before trading ex-dividend (resulting from the option buyer wanting the dividend), I gain about 42 cents. The most I can make is 82 cents if I hold the covered call through option expiration day and the stock gets called away. My last step (completed before making a trade on the same day) is to check company announcements, and news sources for possible events that may cause the stock price to move. This is especially critical during earnings season.

eBooks are the future of stamp catalogs and other philatelic literature
|» Add comment
Though I'm much in love with my printed set of stamp catalogs, I have no doubts that sooner or later eBooks will triumph over printed matter. Right now one of my largest annoyances is the fact that though eBooks seem to be this seasons hottest gift ideas, there is nothing but few oddball philatelic publications available. Nothing from Amos (publisher of Scott), nothing from Schwanberger (publisher of Michel), and nothing from SG (publisher of Stanley Gibbons). Why?
- eBooks are usually much cheaper than printed matter (not to mention postage related savings)
- The price of reader devices have come down a lot too (close to level of medium quality mobile phones and as such)
- And above all, the usability / technology of eBooks seems to have gone gone up in huge steps.
I can honestly see no valid reasons major stamp related book/catalog publishers refuse to say "Auf Wiedersehen, Herr Gutenberg".
I understand that one of the main worries for publishers may be loosing profit margins. Whereas printed set of catalogs can easily cost up to 1,000€/$, no reason minded consumer would pay the same for eBook (or other digital services, like paid subscription websites).
Any opinions from You readers? If there was an say Scott/SG/Michel-catalogs available as eBooks for decent price (say 10-20€/$), how many of you would buy such? At least I would…

Updated On: May 16 2013 12:42:36 AM EDT
Georgia Governor Nathan Deal has ordered all Bibles be put back in guest rooms at state lodges and cabins across the state.
A Georgia Department of National Resources official tells News 4 that they are in the process of putting them back right now.
Georgia parks officials had ordered that Bibles be removed after a resident expressed concerns.
A Georgia Department of Natural Resources spokesman said that after the resident expressed concerns, management directed the staff to remove the Bibles from cabins and lodge rooms until managers can fully investigate the issue and make an informed decision.

MARTIN, Tenn. (AP) -- University of Tennessee-Martin officials plan to discipline the school's Alpha Tau Omega fraternity chapter after an investigation found violations of student conduct.
The university said Tuesday it will revoke university registration for the fraternity, pending an appeal option available to the chapter.
Alpha Tau Omega National Fraternity CEO Wynn Smiley says that by revoking the registration, the university will stop recognizing the fraternity as a campus organization.
Smiley says the national body is also investigating and has suspended chapter operations.
The university's investigation found violations including the endangerment of another person and participation in hazing. The university says a vehicle struck a member of the fall pledge class Nov. 7 while he walked along a rural road with three other pledge class members in Weakley County.

I kind of slept on my back funny and woke up a bit too suddenly!
This has resulted in a sprained back making sitting down, standing up and lying down impossibly painful. Since I am still revising for my finals, there will be a period of shorter and fewer posts. This injury has kind of forced my hand since I am incapable of sitting and writing at my chair.
I will still be making posts, just not as many each day.

Sponsored Deals
They're like ads, but good.
OK, yes, companies pay a little something to be Sponsored Deals. But we don't allow just any old crap in this section. Sponsored Deals are proposed to us by other retailers, manufacturers, and even other daily deal sites. If we find the deal compelling enough that our members will appreciate us bringing it to their attention, we'll feature it here. Believe it or not, we have a reputation to uphold. If your store would like to be considered for this space, please contact us for details. But if your deal is lame, or sketchy, no amount of money will let you buy your way in.
Community Deals
It's whatever you want it to be.
Pretty much, anyway. This is where you find the deals that wooters like you have ferreted out and brought to light. We're thinking it'll turn into a massive database of discounted products from around the Web, constantly expanding to absorb the newest deals from the very moment their prices are slashed, with each deal immediately rated by hordes of savvy voters to spotlight the very greatest deals in the world today. Hey, we can dream, right?
We use a fancy algorithm to determine which deals are catching the most buzz – they're under the Popular tab, which is the default view of this section. You can look for the most popular deals today, this week, or this month. The Fresh tab features the most recently submitted deals, so that's where to look for deals that everybody else doesn't know about yet. And the Search bar does what a Search bar does, only, uh, much wootier! Yeah! Right on!
Ask The Community
They probably won't bite.
Organic bullets? Vegetarian haggis? Cheap tickets to Antarctica? The best high-performance sweatsocks for under $100? If you're looking for a deal that doesn't appear to show up in our Community Deals section, throw the question to your fellow cheapskates. Or answer a question for one of your fellow cheapskates. Or vote for your favorite questions, or your favorite answers, or… maybe we should call this section "Ask, Answer, Comment On, And Vote In The Community", but that won't fit on the page.

We have defined the product and brand in each company in our group. Dimasolda distributes machines for mechanization, Blecken Iberian for cutting and deformation of sheet metal and Apasol welding machinery. We distribute brands of first level in the various sectors as well as some own Blecken and Cimatic in cutters and folding, Apasol and CEM in welding equipment brands.
We have incorporated new technologies primarily in the field of court by laser and cutting by water.
There is no comparison. Mechanically the evolution is slow or impossible but the incorporation of electronics allows a breakthrough almost every day, so to speak in exaggerated form.
In the Spanish market, there is no any metallurgical sector moderately functioning. The investment is paralysed and if someone has the idea of making an effort to improve their production, already covers banking relieve him of such bad thoughts.
We do not have an answer for this. However, we do have clear that when the activity be revived, many workshops will be obsolete if they have not entered into the improvement of facilities and technically appropriate to its offer.
Today a company that could not provide an adequate SAT is not viable.
It goes by sectors. The trend in companies of a certain level is turnkey. However, there is an industrial network of micro-enterprises where the introduction is only machine.
As all distributors of machinery: evil. Losing. Bearing in mind that we have had a decade of positive business we can bear this time but resources such as patience, will run out one day if not comes a situation better.
With confusion. Our impression is that it has bottomed but that we can walk for a long time for this Fund. There are situations that invite optimism and others to the contrary.
Even so, taking into account that in 40 years we have experienced four crisis and that they have always exceeded, we will now not be an exception. Anyway, to make a prediction for 2011, we need many pages of the magazine.

Looking to pick up some standardized and holiday tins for packaging this holiday season. Searches are coming up a bit broad and some places we order bottles don't quite have anything that looks quality enough.
Any suggestions / recommendations?
Views: 238
Are these the type of tins you're looking for Andy?
Not quite. We use Glerup for their hard boxes but those tins are a bit small. I need something I can fit a lb of toffee or dipped fruits in.
Kind of like these guys: http://www.e-holidaytins.com/shop/online/index.php/tins-cans.html/
But I was seeing if anyone had some good stories/reliability resources before I just started blind contacting.
Hi Andy-
I use Paper Mart in the LA area....They sell by both package and case, so you can always buy a smaller quantity to see if they work. And they have a variety of different tins.
We use Holiday Tins http://www.e-holidaytins.com/shop/online/ for our popcorn tins. They sell a quality product. They are located in Texas and are very reliable and usually ship out the same day or the next day. My sales rep is Carolyn Berry.
Thanks for the vote on e-holidaytins. We will check them out as they have a rather broad theme set.
Was just at the candy show and saw a company called Atlantic Tin...seemed like they had a lot of different options.
Good luck,
www.silvertreetins.com, http://www.holidaytins.com,
I have used both companies for popcorn cans, as well as smaller tins, silvertree seems to have slightly better pricing and some really nice designs. HolidayTins is definitely one stop shopping and their customer service is top notch. I did find that each has same size tins, but dimensions are different enough that cannot use same size insert from one company to the other.

Headaches are one of the most common pain-related health problems in both children and adults. You may have a headache along with another minor health problem such as a sore throat, cold, or sinus problem.

If your doctor has prescribed a specific treatment for your headaches, begin treatment as soon as a headache starts. Be sure to follow his or her instructions when taking any prescription medicine for your headache.
