PhotoBookGirl knows a thing or two about photo books — she has a whole website devoted to the subject. And while she is a Blurb affiliate (just being up front about it), her opinions are, in her words, entirely her own. Which is why we were delighted to see that she'd written an enthusiastic and informative post about our ebooks.
We've excerpted some of our favorite moments below, but please check out her whole post for more:
This process is different from the share function using Twitter or Facebook which has been available at no charge for quite some time (and b/t/w is available with many photo book companies). What's funny is I rarely have shared my books via social media or via e-mail. I really like to have the physical copy in my hands to share with friends and family and especially if it's a gift for them, sending it out ahead of time kind of ruins the surprise you know? This does however give me ideas for some end of year projects. I may create an eBook version of a "year in review" book I'm planning to make and share it with my friends. What's nice is that friends who may still want to buy an actual book can do so, and for those that just want to view it on their iPads or iPhones, they can just download the eBook version for free.
For those who are doing the 365 project along with me – after you print out a copy of the book for yourself, wouldn't it be fun to have an eBook version you can show off to your friends, or send to them so they can see what you did this past year?
For pro photographers, this may be a fun revenue generating option to add on to a wedding package (you set the price, and keep 80%) or as a nice complimentary bonus for brides and grooms. Perhaps guests, bridal party and other relatives who may not normally buy prints may be interested in paying a small fee to buy a nice eBook of photos commemorating the big day.
Thanks again, PhotoBookGirl!

text: Ginger & Rosa 12 Sally Potter (2012) UK / Ger / Can / Den 86 min Facebook Twitter Google Tumblr Pinterest Blogger Reddit VKontakt Print Email Play clip Film Review Reviewed By Stella Papamichael 4 out of 5 Elle Fanning gives an arresting performance in this bracingly original coming-of-age drama from writer/director Sally Potter (Orlando, Yes). She plays Ginger, a British teenager growing up in 1962, whose adolescent troubles are exacerbated by the looming threat of nuclear war and, more directly, by her parents. Dad (Alessandro Nivola) is a radical academic; mum (Mad Men's Christina Hendricks) a one-time painter, resentful of her wifely duties. Ginger finds escape in minor adventures with best friend Rosa (Alice Englert) - until Rosa takes a romantic interest in her dad, which he reciprocates. As a budding social activist, Ginger tries to move on, but, as Potter reveals, free thinking sometimes leads to dark, restrictive places. The changing role of women is also an underlying theme in a many-layered but otherwise simply told story. And while it remains one of Potter's more accessible offerings, the subtle, handheld camerawork brings sets it apart from more conventional period dramas. Plot Summary Two teenage girls living in 1960s London have been best friends all their lives, but their relationship is strained as the Cuban missile crisis places the world on the brink of nuclear war. While one becomes involved in a protest movement, the other seeks meaning in her life through sexual experimentation. Drama, starring Elle Fanning, Alice Englert, Christina Hendricks, Annette Bening and Timothy Spall. Cast and crew Cast Ginger Elle Fanning Roland Alessandro Nivola Natalie Christina Hendricks Mark Timothy Spall Mark Two Oliver Platt Anoushka Jodhi May Bella Annette Bening Rosa Alice Englert Crew Director Sally Potter Other Information Language: English Colour Theatrical distributor: Artificial Eye Guidance: Swearing, sexual references.

Our Spring Recreational Program is an affordable alternative. The program consists of Spring League play and several weekend tournaments against other Metro Atlanta AAU programs. Based on your child's progress he join the respective travel team if there are open spots. At least 2 spots on each travel team will be reserved for Rec players.

This session is 8 weeks long and lays an important foundation for next season so don't miss out. The program is affordably priced at $160.
March 17 - July 31, 2013
Our Flagship progam is in its 7th year of competitive basketball and has quickly developed a reputation for strong disciplined teams. The 2012 9th Grade team finished #4 in the YBOA D2 Nationals and competed in the Nike Memorial Day Classic and the ESPN Suwanee Showcase after finishing ranked 5th in the YBOA State Tournament. We have traveled throughout the Southeast to cities such as Jacksonville (FL), Starkville (MS), Birmingham (AL), & Charlotte (NC). We faced teams from Washington, D.C., Oklahoma, Virginia, Miami to the Bahamas and Peurto Rico. Our program has gone toe to toe with 5 recent YBOA National Champions -- (2009 D2) N GA Heat, (2009 D1 & 2010 D1) Tri-City Ballers of Florida, (2011 D2) Memphis Raiders and (2012 D2) Louisiana Select Bulls.
The Travel program now consists of several levels based on the teams grade, overall ability and the individual athlete's skill level. For 2013 we have added an Elite Level 10th Grade that will be playing in Showcase events and D1 tournaments designed to garner the attention of college scouts. We will still have a D2 team that will give an opportunity for greater playing time for players not at the D1 level. Players on the D2 team maybe invited to play with the D1 team in some tournaments as the season and their skill level progresses.
The 9th, 10th & 11th Grade travel teams will participate in AAU & YBOA tournaments locally in order to qualify for their respective Nationals.

A disaster. A lone child. Barefoot. In a barren landscape. The apparent absence of social structures.
This photograph recycles all the main elements in the dominant representation of 'Africa'. As James Ferguson writes in his important book Global Shadows, "for all that has changed, 'Africa' continues to be described through a series of lacks and absences, failings and problems, plagues and catastrophes."
Caption: Bududa, Eastern Uganda. A boy walks over the churned mud after heavy rains caused landslides on Mount Elgon on Tuesday. Three villages were engulfed, at least 80 people were killed and around 250 are missing. The Guardian, 6 March 2010, p. 23. Credit: James Akena/Reuters
The recent mudslides in Uganda that James Akena's photo for Reuters symbolises are certainly worthy of reporting. The question is: regardless of the intentions of the individual photographer – a Ugandan who is an accomplished stringer – why did he choose this particular composition? And, equally important, given that he will have taken a number of images on site, how did this particular photo come to be selected by The Guardian to represent the story?
The choices that Akena made in taking the photograph, and The Guardian made in making it the largest picture in its 'Eyewitnessed' double page spread for the first week in March, are evident when compared to other pictures from the same event. On The New York Times Lens blog Stephen Wandera's photograph for AP (see slide 2) shows a large crowd at the scene searching for survivors, while a Ugandan TV report also shows the community at large. These demonstrate that the photography of the lone boy is a specific choice with particular effects that tap into a long history of visual representation.
It is time for the photographic visualization of 'Africa' to offer something different. In this context, it is worth noting that only two days prior to the publication of the Bududa photograph, The Guardian ran a story in its business section headlined "Africa begins to make poverty history." It opened with claim that:
For decades, it has been seen as the world's lost continent. Now, a new study says that the view of Africa as a basket case is wrong.
As the continent prepares to welcome thousands of international football fans for the World Cup in June, it seems the image of an economically vibrant region the hosts are keen to project is closer to the truth than tired stereotypes suggest.
It's an important — though contested — account of recent economic trends should give pause to those who simply recycle the old stereotypes, and some photographers are producing different perspectives that challenge those stereotypes.
One significant project doing this is Joan Bardeletti's "Middle Classes in Africa," a twenty-month project in six countries documenting the rise of this group and their potential role in the development of the continent. Three of the stories – from Mozambique, Kenya and the Ivory Coast – are on-line now. One of the pictures from the Mozambique story won a World Press Photo award this year for the "Daily Life/singles" category.
Caption: Un dimanche après midi en famille sur la plage près de Maputo. Joan Bardeletti/Picturetank
Bardeletti's photographs show people, places, institutions and cultural events that are modern, well-resourced and more than a little familiar to the European eye. They reveal a complexity to 'African' life that belies the stereotypes. However, we have to refrain from seeing Akena's photograph as 'negative/wrong/false' while Bardeletti's are 'positive/right/true'. These are tired forms of critique that overlook the fact that all photographers make aesthetic choices in the construction of imagery. In terms of what 'we' outside of 'Africa' see, the overriding concern needs to be less the presence of particular pictures than the absence of all the alternative possibilities.
This chimes with an interview Guy Tillim, the renowned South African photographer, gave to Daniel Cuthbert's Verbal blog in July last year. Tillim observed:
The thing is, there are serious problems in Africa which did require our attention. One has to be careful with the positive/negative thing. Just because one takes images of dance halls in Lagos, and people being happy, it might end up being as much as a cliché as the suffering image.
Positives images are one that are self-aware or are interesting, penetrating and original no matter what they look at. Negatives images are ones that perpetuate the issue. Let's face it, Stereotypes are currency in this industry and actively traded by western media.
The problem with images is that we are so visually driven, clichés are bound to be strong. There is a lack of context. If we see a crumbling wall, we think this is a metaphor for the human issue. It's not, it's often just a crumbling wall. What is positive and negative depends on your view.
Tillim's recasting of what positive/negative mean is very important. Instead of it being a simple contrast of picture content — graphic images of famine versus smiling villagers, for example — he sees it as embodying an understanding of the purpose and function of photographs: "positives images are one that are self-aware or are interesting, penetrating and original no matter what they look at. Negatives images are ones that perpetuate the issue [the cliché]."
This is the position from which we should judge Bardeletti's photographs. It will be interesting to see how many media outlets use Bardeletti's photographs and stories once the project is completed in the summer of this year. Of course, there are many economic problems still facing the continent – such as the "land grab" of agricultural resources revealed recently by John Vidal – but a more comprehensive visual account of 'Africa' must include photographs like Joan Bardeletti's.
UPDATE 18 March 2010:
Asim Rafiqui has an excellent post — How to Take Photos of Africa Or Where Intent and Ideas Collide — that was serendipitously published on the same day as this one. It shares concerns similar to mine, and has a range of additional examples. It is a 'must read'.
I am very gratified by this post – making the compelling case for presenting Africa in a different light than the usual doom and gloom. That is what we are looking to accomplish with the upcoming launch of africanlens.com. Presenting all facets of Africa and not through just one lens. I started the project out of a nagging feeling to present Africa the way Africans see it and live it. Thanks David.
sadness, dispair and poverty sells on this continent…
pity, there is so much more to Africa
The original version of this post at A Developing Story has prompted quite a debate, with comments from the photographer James Akena and others critical of the argument. For their points and my responses, follow this link.
David, I've just found your blog and I'm very impressed with your detailed and succinct thoughts.
I'm just completing a research MA with the University of Cape Town on South African representation in television news, looking at a sample of the World Cup's closing few days. The semiotics of the imagery / discourse of the news is highly interesting, and I'm finding a lot of my own conclusions are echoed in your blog. Thank you for a well-written and insightful argument that spans multiple blog posts. I hope you don't mind but I've cited you a couple of times in my draft, as your discussion is pertinent to my findings.
Contact me if you have any concerns, suggestions, or advice.
Hello David Campbell,
I just found your blog and it's very interesting to me. I'm doing my PhD in the representation of refugees through alternative media, with my background literature having developed from their dominant representations. Indeed I've quoted you severally in my work and thanks for this blog, it brings your work closer to us (me) as upcoming scholars. this article has a similarity with a paper I'm working on at the moment.
[…] Campbell has an insightful post on visualizing 'Africa', and the need for thinking about representations in terms other than the positive/negative […]

Kawasaki Motor Corp., U.S.A. of Grand Rapids, MI, U.S. offers the KTR27A String Trimmer that the company says boasts high power at 26.3cc. The key benefit of the product, the company says, is its easy starting feature; it only needs just half a pull to start. The products' engine uses a new carburetor with a slow idle starter device that reportedly prevents the blade from running during start-up and disengages when the throttle is applied. Additional features include a reduced recoil pulling force, a fully covered carburetor, and one-piece fan housing, as well as a new, easy-to-service air cleaner element, and muffler screen.

The different dimensions can be useful for a variety of purposes, including varying sizes of books and other objects requiring a deeper shelf.
The Kuryo Bookshelves are an elegant addition to any home library or office. The Short Kuryo Bookcase has the appeal of greater accessibility, as the impressive height of the Tall Kuryo can seem a bit daunting.

A conflict may also exist where there is an appearance that an Interested Party's objectivity in performing his or her responsibilities under the Project is impaired. For example, an appearance of impairment of objectivity may result from an organizational conflict where, because of other activities or relationships with other persons or entities, an Interested Party is unable to render impartial assistance, services or advice to the Recipient, a participant in the Project or to the Federal government. Additionally, a conflict of interest may result from non-financial gain to an Interested Party, such as benefit to reputation or prestige in a professional field.

(4) See §315.15 of this chapter for special conflicts of interest rules for Trade Adjustment Assistance Investments.
(c) Special rules for Revolving Loan Fund ("RLF") Grants. In addition to the rules set forth in this section:
(1) An Interested Party of a Recipient of an RLF Grant shall not receive, directly or indirectly, any personal or financial benefits resulting from the disbursement of RLF loans;
(2) A Recipient of an RLF Grant shall also not lend RLF funds to an Interested Party; and

Photoshop – how to make smooth curved linesApril 28th, 2006
One of the most frequently asked questions about photoshop is "how do I make a simple, smooth curved line?". If you've got a tablet, there might be other ways, but with a mouse it can seem a little tricky. The brush and pencil tools are too "jerky" so those are no good. The pen tool is the answer, but to many it's unintuitive. So I thought I'd pass along my technique. Hopefully it'll help someone out there.
The end goal is something like:
Nothing fancy, but nice and smooth.
I have a feeling this process is going to sound more complicated than it is. Do it once though, and it'll be a piece of cake after that.
First, the tools we'll use:
Take special notice of the direct select tool. There are two arrows under there. The solid black one (path selection tool) lets you move a path as a single unit. The white one (direct select tool) lets you modify a path. This is the one we want right now.
Step 1
Define what you want the line to look like. I wanted a smooth 3px line. I like the brush for such things. Choose the brush tool and have a look at it's options, and palette:
My settings show a simple 3px brush – but you can go crazy here (and get some interesting effects ultimately).
Notice! We're not doing anything with the brush tool – we're just setting it up – no drawing!
Step 2
Select the Pen tool. (This is by far my favorite tool in PS). You want to draw a path (not a shape) so get your pen toolbar looking like this:
Now, create a start and end point on your canvas by clicking twice (or make a few points – whatever strikes you)
Step 3
Select the direct selection tool (the white arrow, not the black one!). Right click anywhere on your curve. From the pop-up menu choose add anchor point. This will put a point on the line. Now, (still with the same tool) click and drag that new point. This is the basis for all pen-related actions. You created an anchor point that has two handles.
You can drag the point around, as well as the handles. Mess with them a bit to see what you end up with.
Add a second (3rd, 4th whatever) anchor point and move the anchors and handles around. I ended up with this:
Step 4
Create a new blank layer:
So you've got a curve you like – here's the magic part. Go to the paths palette:
There's the path you just created, called work path. Right click on that layer and choose Stroke Path. You'll get a pop-up box:
From there you can choose to create your stroke from any number of items (pencil, brush, healing brush etc). In step one we set up our brush the way we wanted it. So choose brush. Click Ok. It'll look something like:
To get rid of the path line, just deselect the work path in the paths palette (click anywhere in the palette).
That's it!
It's worth mentioning that the final colored path was put on that new layer you created. It will not be modified by changing the path!. To change your line, delete the layer you put the stroke on, go back to your path, reshape it, then reapply the stroke. It's easier than it sounds. In fact this whole process of creating a curved line just takes a few seconds – it just might look complicated.
Go forth and be smooth and curvy.

Tuesday, Apr 29, 2014 on FoodNetwork.com
"I usually like Ree's recipes, but this one was too sweet. The simpler way to make these beans is use bacon, onions, and green peppers, saut���, add water and beans, add the chili powder, 1/2 the brown sugar, and a good bbq sauce. "
"This is the exact salad dressing I had recently at a chain restaurant, and it was so delicious!!! Taken from the New York Times food section, and adapted from "How to Cook Everything". It is creamy, yet light and tangy."
"This is my slimmed down version of another yummy casserole on this site. Trust me, it tastes sinful this way, and the best part is, no canned soup!!! Perfect side dish to steak or chicken."
"So simple, it is almost criminal. Every time I make this steak for my husband, he nearly cries in delight. If you don't have the McCormick Montreal Steak Seasoning, please don't bother with this recipe (I buy the huge containers at Sam's. You can also make your own, but be sure and use sea salt)."
"Growing up in central Texas, my mom made these beans all the time with cornbread. I have seen some more complicated recipes, but really, you only need beans, water, salt, and chili powder. These are the kind of beans you will get as a side in most BBQ joints. Bet you didn't know they were this easy!"
"This version of mac and cheese is now my favorite "go to" recipe. I suggest following it exactly the way it is written the first time. It reminds me a bit of the mac n cheese at places like Luby's cafeteria, or Furr's.
Once you learn this style, you can sub regular milk for the evaporated, and follow the same method.The only thing I have changed"

I have have had macedonia in Italy, and was hoping this would be it, but it was very different. I will keep searching. I think the version I prefer ha"
"Thank you Bobby for giving us a healthy and easy wing recipe. These were better than eating out, and cheaper! I left mine in the over longer, as my husband was late coming home. They got a nice char on them from the honey in the sauce. I served ours with ranch. Great Friday night meal."
"I use half shredded cheddar, and half velveeta. It just makes the whole dish creamier. I also only use half of the margarine. Best mac n cheese ever!"
"I only used one small can of evaporated milk (my dog licked the other can), and half of the cheese, and I had a great mac n cheese. Granted, it probably wasn't as creamy, but it was a lot fewer calories. I added ham and broccoli to make it a meal."

Your Most Maddening Patient/Patient's Family Situation - page 2
Perhaps there's been a thread on this already, but can it be ok to start a new one? When I have a patient who is, or whose family just makes me want to go in the back room and tear every hair out of my head out, it's really... Read More
- 1Jun 8, '12 by Catch22PersonifiedI already gave report and clocked out ready to leave but then I hear an overhead page; I responded to a Stat/Unresponsive patient that was near my permanent assigned unit. While I was pumping the ambu bag, some crazed family member waving her camera phone was yelling about her husband not being changed or something and threatening to report us for neglect.
Honestly there is a patient with no pulse right now and you are bothering us over something this trivial? What scares me most was, it was discovered that this family member was actually abusing the patient, so I guess she was putting this facade that she cares.
I've noticed the families that care most for their loved ones are very involved in their care, do not harass staff members every waking moment, and DO NOT interrupt people during life threatening situations.
- 1Jun 10, '12 by PeepnBiscuitsRNI have a new one now, the family member or nursing home that dumps the totally disoriented, end stage Alzheimer's patient off in the ER. On arrival to our floor we don't know jack squat about him, he's not only ES Alzheimer's, but he's aphasic, a shouter, a feeder/turner- but strong enough to try to get out of bed repeatedly....and the family didn't have time to discuss their father's condition or medical history...or code status, ergo he's full code.
Or the family who's loved one is just like the above mentioned patient...and the family pulls out all the stops- keep her full code! Oh heck yes go ahead with the feeding tube! Intubation? Please, yes!
- 1Jun 10, '12 by TheCommuter, ASN, RN Senior ModeratorQuote from PeepnBiscuitsRNI worked at nursing homes for 5 years before completely leaving that setting. Anyhow, nursing home staff will usually send this type of patient to the ER per the request of screaming family members....the family member or nursing home that dumps the totally disoriented, end stage Alzheimer's patient off in the ER.
In LTC, the family is always right.
- 2Jun 10, '12 by Ruby Veedad had heart surgery, and the son was a doctor. he was quite fond of telling us he was a doctor in as many different ways as possible. he talked about "his" office nurse, his office, his practice, the prestigious hospital where he had privileges, his country club, etc. oh, and he wanted to direct the care. not sure what kind of a doctor he was, but he knew absolutely nothing about heart surgery. one day he brought mom up to visit. it was fairly obvious to me that mom had dementia issues the moment i met her. the son the doctor parked mom at dad's bedside and left. it took me a couple of hours to figure out that he'd not only left the room, he'd left the building. the state even. turns out he and his new wife didn't want to look after mom while dad was in the hospital, so he just brought her in and left her. mom was a nightmare too, but she had dementia. after three days of her wandering in and out of other patient's rooms, attempting to steal food from their trays and in one case lying down in the patient's bed to sleep while the patient was up in the chair, our unit director grew a set and took care of the problem. i don't understand why it took so long.
there was the patient's wife who brought his 90 year old mother in to visit and promptly asked me to toilet the mother because she (the wife) didn't like to do that. i've had ltc nurses tell me they would have just toileted the visitor. in icu, we can't leave our patient long enough to toilet ourselves some days, much less the visitors!
there was the patient who was the same age as my mother, and the daughter who was about my age. daughter talked baby talk to her mother all day. after 12 hours, i was about ready to scream. the capper was when the daughter woke up the patient, who had finally drifted off to sleep, to inquire in a high pitched, squeaky tone, "mommy, mommy!!! do you need another squishy?" (mommy already had an excess of squishies (er, pillows) under, over and around her. i'd used our stock, ordered more and scavenged from other patients in order to try to make this nut case daughter happy while she complained that if i were a better nurse and more concerned with mommy's comfort than her rapidly falling hemoglobin and rising heart rate, mommy would have gotten some sleep by now and be all better.
we had no locker room, so it was the practice to stash our purses in an inconspicuous spot in the patient's room. none of our patients were ambulatory, and all had floor to ceiling bookshelves in one corner of the room. i'd usually stash my purse on an upper shelf that most folks couldn't reach, and it was quite safe there. one day when i came back from lunch, i found the patient's daughter sitting at the room reading the same paperback i was reading. turns out it wasn't such a coincidence -- she'd gone through my purse and it was my book. she even commented on the brand of lipstick i use! i was absolutely flummoxed, went out to the nurse's station and vented. when i was done venting, i went back to finish my shift and found the surgeon telling the daughter that she was barred from visiting in the future without security with her, and if she didn't immediately and convincingly apologize to me, she was barred from visiting at all ever again. she apologized.
- 2Jun 16, '12 by PeepnBiscuitsRNHmmm, I would have fetched a squishy and promptly whapped the daughter over the head.

Tampa, Florida
November 7, 2000
Dear Paul,
Last night I closed The Hub. It's a little bar in downtown Tampa with famously, almost undrinkably strong drinks. During the day the place is filled with troubled people and the smell of urine. But at night cheery, horny college kids join the crowd of depressed daytime drunks, and at 3 a.m. the bartenders have to turn the lights on to scare everyone out. As 3 a.m. approached last night, I didn't want to leave. I was busy having a great conversation, I think, with this beautiful woman who was about a foot taller than I was.
We were talking, of course, about the election, which was going to take place in a few hours. Instead of admitting that I really didn't care about the election, I overcompensated by talking about it very loudly.
A guy with a typical central-Florida mullet haircut stopped by our table and said, "Y'know, Al Gore is giving a speech or something in Tampa at 4 a.m."
"He must be trying to capture the drunkard's vote. Where's the rally at: an after-hours club?" I asked. The tall woman laughed.
"No," said the mullet. "At the cancer center." Everyone stopped laughing. The word "cancer" will do that. The guy explained that Tampa was the last stop on Gore's thirty-hour-long final campaign swing. This was it, he said: the whole campaign was going to end a few miles away. History would be made, in Tampa.
A week earlier Al Gore had held a rally a couple blocks from the newspaper where I work, and Jimmy Buffett performed. I fucking hate Jimmy Buffett. I used to work in a beach-style restaurant across the street from the stadium and the people who ran the restaurant were Parrotheads (that's what official Jimmy Buffett fans call themselves). I had to listen to Buffett constantly. And when he'd play at the stadium, the bar would turn up the Buffett even louder and hire a Buffett cover band to play on the outside patio and the Parrotheads would all take the day off from their corporate jobs and gather and drink and puke on each other per Buffett's musical suggestion. Now when I see a group of drunk Parrotheads with their hands in a prayer position on top of their heads, all pantomiming the "fins to the left
fins to the right" routine, I want to smash something. I didn't want to go see history being made if it was going to involve Jimmy Buffett.
The bartenders turned the lights on and everyone ran outside real quick before the people they were trying to sleep with saw their drunk, red faces under the unflattering fluorescence.
"So, you wanna go to my house and drink a bit more," I said, looking up into the woman's face.
"No, we should go see Al Gore," she answered.
You do what you gotta do. We got in my truck and smoked a joint as we drove across town to the cancer center. On the radio Fred Durst was shouting,
Now I know you be lovin' this shit right here!
L. I. M. P. Bizkit is right here!
Now I know you be lovin' this shit right here!
L. I. M. P. Bizkit is right here!
"Now that's some lyrical genius," I said, passing the joint to her. "Not many artists realize that words rhyme with themselves. Y'know? Any time you're stuck for a rhyme, you can just use the same word twice: it always works. Bon Jovi does that shit too."
"Bon Jovi played on behalf of Al Gore last night in Miami," she told me.
At that moment I hated Al Gore.
We drove onto the campus and found the parked motorcade of limos, police motorcycles, busses, and an ambulance out front of the cancer center. We joined a crowd of about 75 supporters with Gore signs standing on the curb across the street. A bunch of drunken fraternity guys were taking group pictures with a sign reading: "Phi Delta Theta supports Al Gore."
So far in Gore's camp we have Jimmy Buffett, Bon Jovi, and some meathead frat boys.
Five minutes later a woman in some kind of uniform, but without any badges or patches, came over and told us we weren't allowed to congregate. "This is State of Florida property," she said, meanly. "You can't stand here."
An old woman with a Gore sign said, timidly, "But it said in the paper he was going to be here at 4 a.m."
"He is. He's inside. But you can't see him 'cause it's not for the public. There's a public appearance later."
The old lady asked, kindly, "Where will that be?"
"I don't have to give you any information," the guard-type lady shouted. "I'm here to protect Al Gore. You have to leave."
The pack dispersed. I thought it was pretty funny that these people, who were so into politics that they'd stay up till 4 a.m. to see a presidential candidate, would do exactly what some anonymous woman told them to do, just because her clothes were dark and looked like a uniform. My tall date and I defiantly stuck around alone until a male police officer came by and asked us what we were doing.
"We just wanted to see the Vice President."
"Are you with the press?"
I could have said yes, since I am in fact a newspaper reporter. But I'd get fired for flashing my press pass around when I'm wasted and trying to get laid, so I said, "No, we just wanted to creep around and see if we could get a look." Halfway through the sentence I realized that "creep around" was perhaps not the best phrase to use when trying to get near a potential President.
"He's just visiting people in the hospital," the officer said. "It's gonna be televised, but you're not going to get to see him here in person. After this he's holding a public rally at Democratic Headquarters downtown at 5:30." He gave us the address and smiled. He was very nice.
Back in the car I tried to think of ways to get out of going. "5:30 in the morning?" I said. "That's an hour and a half from now. By the time Gore speaks our hangovers will be taking effect. And there's nowhere to get more alcohol. At my house, there's beer." But she still wanted to go, and I still wanted her, so we headed back downtown.
The scene at Tampa Democratic Headquarters, across the parking lot from Jimmy's Sod, looked like an indie-rock concert was about to start: small P.A., small crowd of 150 people gathered in front of a small outdoor stage while another 200 lined up outside the gate to be frisked. Security weeded out the possible protesters and let campaign volunteers, the converted, in first, as "Love Train" blasted over the P.A.
Three eight-year-old girls ran weaving in and out of the line screaming about Gore, more impatient to see the man than their parents were. "When can we see Al Gore?" the girls yelled. Hearing their little voices say his name reminded me that last week, I had reluctantly entered a conversation about the election and realized halfway through that I had been referring to Al Gore as "Bob Dole." Nobody corrected me.
The crowd was smiley and happy and young and old and white. Not one black person.
On the way in the gate, they handed my date a sign. I declined. John Cougar Mellencamp was singing "Small Town." Then Stevie Wonder: "Higher Ground." Then John Mellencamp again with "R.O.C.K. in the U.S.A."
I lit a cigarette and noticed I was the only one smoking. I looked around for other smokers, expecting to be shot at any moment by the Secret Service guys who were creeping around with those curly wires coming from their ears. I finally spotted a stream of smoke across the crowd and traced it to the mouth of the sound guy. I knew him from hanging out in Tampa rock clubs. His name is RatBoy. He has a mullet too. I left my date to go talk to him.
"Good choice of music," I said to RatBoy, just as another John Cougar song started.
"I didn't pick it. They brought a CD."
"Music inspired by the Gore campaign?"
"Yeah, they told me to turn it up louder in..." He looked at his watch. "Two minutes: at 5:00 a.m."
I asked why and he cranked the P.A. two minutes early to demonstrate: the crowd began talking louder to be heard over the Mellencamp and the pitch and mood heightened noticeably: it suddenly seemed like a happening scene.
I left RatBoy and on the way back to my tall date I ran into one of my co-workers from the paper. He wasn't writing about the rally either. He just wanted to be part of history, he said. "This monumental battle is seeing its end not three blocks from my house!"
"Did you know Gore likes Bon Jovi?" I asked, watching the light drain from his eyes. It made me feel good.
A dark-haired seven-year-old boy, covered in Gore stickers from his face to his feet, climbed up on stage and held up a Gore sign and began a chant of "Gore! Gore! Gore!" I wondered if that's what the crowd chanted in the coliseum when the Christians were being fed to the lions. The Gore crowd waved their signs frantically and the music (that "B-b-b-baby, You Just Ain't Seen Nothin' Yet" song) blared. I heard someone behind me ask if the boy on stage was Elian Gonzalez.
I looked for my date and spotted her stretching her arms up, holding her sign high in the air, standing on her tiptoes, looking about nine feet tall. Her long, flat stomach was exposed as she stretched and bounced on the balls of her feet in rhythm with the Elian kid's chant and I was a little embarrassed for her so I went over to talk to her so she'd stop being so enthusiastic about politics.
By 5:15 a.m. the crowd was losing its wind a little. An hour and about a dozen John Cougar songs later, they seemed to have gained it back. Amazing. The sky was getting lighter. I couldn't believe I had stuck it out so long. And then came the cavalcade. I was blinded by a forest of "Gore/Lieberman 2000" signs.
Even after the signs stopped waving the crowd was still going nuts. I would have been going nuts too if, say, Prince were up there.
Florida Congressman Jim Davis introduced Lieberman, who sounded a lot like a baseball announcer; like Harry Carey, drawing out his vowels: "If we can win it heeeeere, we're gonna win it eeeeeeverywheeeeeere."
When Gore spoke I paid attention to the sign-language interpreter, who, judging from his enthusiasm, was himself a Gore supporter. His exaggerated hand signals and body gestures made him look like he was doing an Eminem impersonation.
The three politicians didn't talk much about the issues. They just kissed Florida's ass, which was striking because we really are the bastard state; we rarely get our ass kissed. But I have to say that Gore and company seemed pretty real. Maybe I'll vote for him, if I vote. I was way too tired to care a whole lot. I was so over it that I had even lost interest in my date and as soon as Gore said his last word and John Cougar started again, I offered to take her home.

ExArc 2013 Conference
It's been a while since I last blogged from St Fagans - there's been a glitch in the matrix and we still haven't quite got to the bottom of it. But we'll get there.
That's one way of apologising that there won't be any pictures with this post. Anyway, onwards:
This week, Museum Wales and Cardiff University will be hosting the annual ExArc conference. ExArc, in this context, refers to Experimental Archaeology; a hands-on approach to learning about the past, which looks at the 'how?' of history, as well as the 'when?'.
ExArcers' work is in raw materials, painstaking detail and learning from mistakes as well as triumphs. The research they take part in can range from bronze-casting or iron-smelting using rudimentary tools; to recreating underwear or researching the practicalities of life in the past.
I have been lucky enough to learn a lot from ExArcers over the last few years, and so am very proud that St Fagans will feature in their visit down to Cardiff. We're known here for our hands-on approach, and I suspect we could learn an awful lot from these trailblazers!
While the conference is completely full, you can follow the discussion online using the hashtag #eauk2013.
The twitter stream is already full of interesting people, travelling here from all around as I type. If you're planning to attend, please do come and say hello. You will know me by my, erm, museum name badge?

Fir Balsam Absolute - 10%
This absolute is premixed to make it affordable and easy to use. Try blending it with your favorite essential oils, absolutes and CO2 extracts.
For the pure and undiluted version of this oil, see our Fir Balsam Absolute.
Customer Reviews for Fir, Balsam Absolute - 10%
- Fir Balsam diluted Review by Rocky Mountains
- This oil smells heavenly. It is strong enough to use the diluted in my blending and is the perfect aroma for my masculine line, although the aroma is perfect for any gender. Love this oil! (Posted on 9/10/14)
- JOY Review by Florence
- I absolutely love this absolute. The dilution is quite strong and can be diluted even more if need be. The scent is so joyful and every time I open the bottle, I breathe deeply. It's sweet, green, fresh and coniferous. I find it can lend a special touch to not only forest or green blends, but floral and gourmand types as well. (Posted on 9/2/14)
- LOVE!! Review by Flo
- I love the scent of this absolute. As the pure absolute is thick and waxy, the dilution is so much easier to use. And the scent . . . I could bathe in it! Sweet, jammy, green, fresh, coniferous. I LOVE this stuff. (Posted on 8/29/14)
- A very soothing, grounding oil, and very beautiful Review by bergamotpinenut
- This fir balsam is an incredible oil. I find it extremely comforting. It reaches deep into your heart and tells you everything will be okay. I have purchased both the solid absolute and the 10% and I do prefer the undiluted material because I like to use it at a slightly greater than 10% concentration. Although the prediluted oils are a great value, I find they are sometimes inconsistent. I've received samples, for example of the dilution, that are much more concentrated than the diluted oils I have subsequently purchased. But the 10% dilution is still very beautiful, and this particular absolute has to be greatly heated to dilute, so you have to be prepared to put the effort in if you want to dilute it on your own. This is one of the most beautiful oils I have ever smelled and I would not be without it. I especially recommend it for support in dealing with grief. It is great for blending as well.

Program Summary
Engineering Management — The Business-Savvy Engineer
Engineering managers hold unique positions in business and industry because of their ability to blend technical skills with a balance of essential business and management skills. They plan, lead, coordinate, and drive the direction of design, research and development, and production in organizations. As competitive pressures continue to reshape the typical role of the engineer from one that was largely technical to one that encompasses business and management, individuals with skills that bridge that gap will have a distinct advantage over their competitors.

Human Services Commissioner Lucinda Jesson and members of the Minnesota Board on Aging will accept an award honoring the Minnesota Department of Human Services and the Board on Aging for including lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender older adults in program planning and services provided by the organizations.
Training to Serve's 2013 John Yoakam Award for Service will be presented at the organization's benefit from 6 to 8 p.m., Thursday, May 16, at the Doubletree Park Place in Minneapolis.
"As the Minnesota Board on Aging and DHS work to sustain quality services for the rapidly growing aging population, we are mindful of the diversity of older Minnesotans," said Jesson. "The perspectives we have gained from working with lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender Minnesotans have been invaluable as we plan for the major demographic shift approaching our state."
Jean Wood, executive director of the Minnesota Board on Aging, said board members are deeply appreciative to be recognized by LGBT service partners.
"These community partners share our vision of a Minnesota where older people have choices in how they receive services and how they live their lives, said Wood.
Cathy Croghan, Training to Serve board chair, said the award recognizes efforts DHS and the Minnesota Board on Aging have made in recent years to support increased access to services for LGBT older adults, training of staff and service providers on the needs of LGBT individuals as well as LGBT input on important initiatives in aging.
"All of these activities support Training to Serve's vision of safe, welcoming and supportive services available to LGBT older adults," Croghan said.
Training to Serve established the annual award to honor a Minnesota organization in Minnesota that has made strides to provide an environment where compassionate care for LBGT older adults can flourish. The award is named in memory of John Yoakam, an advocate for aging within the LBGT community in the Twin Cities who died in 2009.
Training to Serve assists Minnesota providers of aging services with education and tools to help them meet the needs of LGBT persons as they age.
DHS helps provide essential services to Minnesota's most vulnerable residents. Working with many others, including counties, tribes and non-profits, DHS helps ensure that Minnesota seniors, people with disabilities, children and others meet their basic needs and have the opportunity to reach their full potential.
The Minnesota Board on Aging administers federal Older Americans Act funds that provide a spectrum of services to seniors, including Senior LinkAge Line® and Insurance Counseling. The board also listens to senior concerns, researches for solutions and proposes policy to address senior needs.
