Submit your question below about any cosmetic procedure to be considered for posting with an answer from one of our board-certified plastic surgeons.
If your question is about the cost of a procedure, click here. For referral to a qualified surgeon in your area, see find a surgeon.
Note: ASAPS cannot give advice about specific medical problems nor should answers provided by responding surgeons be substituted for a complete medical history, work-up and an in-personal medical/surgical consultation. Sorry we can't answer all questions. We try to select questions that have the widest general interest.
Should a drain have been placed preventing a second surgery?
A few hours after a capsulectomy my breast started swelling. The doctor decided to drain the area. He ended up having to perform a new surgery by removing the new implant and cauterizing the area and sending me home with a drain. My question is had he placed a drain when performing the first surgery would have prevented the second surgery from happening? Or it is more likely that he had missed some areas when cauterizing the area where he cut the scar tissue leading to the internal bleeding? Thanks
It is fairly common to use a drain after a complete capsulectomy. It is a decision made by the doctor based on how dry the field is.
A drain does not always prevent a hematoma and the need for further surgery
I'm sorry to hear of your experience.
The decision to place a drain following an open capsulectomy is a decision made by your plastic surgeon at the time of surgery based on how much bleeding is evident.
Many surgeons typically place a drain routinely after this procedure. However if there was no bleeding at the time of your surgery your surgeon's decision not to use a drain may have been perfectly appropriate.
As the old staying goes "hindsight is 20/20."
Be sure to discuss your concerns with your plastic surgeon.
I sincerely hope you will have an uneventful recovery and be able to complete your breast augmentation at a later date.

Popular Austin Anchor Fred Cantu Is Leaving KEYE
Popular Austin anchor Fred Cantu is leaving KEYE. Cantu has been a fixture on Austin TV for two decades, most recently serving as an anchor for KEYE's Telemundo affiliate.
Cantu, who worked at Austin's KTBC and KVUE before moving to KEYE in 2002, has decided to leave the CBS/Telemundo affiliate in search of another anchor chair to fill. Cantu resigned his post at KEYE's Spanish newscast because language was an apparent obstacle between him and the viewers.
"KEYE asked me to give it a shot because I was so well known in the market and would lend instant credibility to this start-up," Cantu tells TVSpy. "But since English is my primary language, I was frustrated that I wasn't doing as well as I did in English. The viewers were– for the most part– very supportive, but I knew they deserved better."
Before helming the Telemundo anchor desk, Cantu served as a morning anchor for KEYE's CBS affiliate, where viewers often referred to him simply as "Uncle Fred." The station offered Cantu a reporter post but the veteran anchor ultimately decided that he would miss the viewer connection that comes with anchoring the news.

I'm sorry we've all been so rude as to not respond to your post before this but you see, this forum is for off-topic conversations and doesn't get as much traffic as it once did. If you re-post your question on the Rose discussion page, you'll probably get some help. Just one thing - your description of what is happening to your roses is not quite clear. Could you give more information? I myself don't quite understand what you mean by "dead on one side of the crown." It could mean that canes are dead on one side of each plant (same side on each?) There are so many possibilities to your question that I think that is why no one has taken a stab at it. If you come back with more info (and photos would be wonderful) maybe you'll get more answers.

Back From the Dust - Chapter ThirteenIf this was how it felt being Ulquiorra's "girlfriend", I can't say that I'm excited for it.I was so nervous! I was shaking my leg so much I was afraid it was vibrating the whole seat! (Oh, I sure hope Ulquiorra didn't feel the vibration.) I didn't know what to do. I had a hard time paying attention to the movie.I felt even more nervous because of the guys behind us kept bothering me about being a bad girlfriend to Ulquiorra.What have I gotten myself into? I could have just walked away from them or something intelligent! But no. My mouth had to blurt out that I came with my boyfriend."Relax." Ulquiorra said. His eyes didn't leave the screen but he was clearly talking to me."I can't." I admitted.It wasn't because I didn't like Ulquiorra. It was because it was super awkward! Plus, knowing Ulquiorra he probably wouldn't have complained and would just play along which doesn't help me much due to the awkwardness."Just act normal." Ulquiorra said. He held my hand. "Act like you normal
Music to my Heart Chp 9The next day, it was raining. Perhaps it was an omen of something to come, thought Orihime, as she walked to the school library that afternoon. Many people would say it was a bad omen, but to her, it was a good one. She always loved the rain, she would run out in it and let it soak her face whenever she was feeling down, and watch the shining drops fall from the sky, like shooting stars, or a waterfall, or even the lights of a UFO coming down to take away some poor, unsuspecting victim. But her favourite part, was after the rain had stopped. When everything was new and clean. It all glistened like it was reborn, like the rain had washed every bad thing away; every blemish, every mistake, and it could start again. She loved waiting for that moment to come, standing in the rain, eyes closed, letting it wash over her and through her sunset hair. And that was how Ulquiorra Cifer found her as he walked over to the library, practically carrying a black umbrella.He stopped and stared at her,
Requiem of a Broken HeartAge:Birth-10 yearsI can't."Kill it," I hear a soft whimper.I couldn't."You heard me."I know..."Now."The knife slipped from my trembling hands."You bad boy!"He slapped me across the face.I showed no pain, it only brought him satisfaction."Kill it!" He screams in my face.The puppies eyes shine up at me in confusion and innocence.My eyes narrow and I glare at the ground."Do it or I'll put you down like a dog!"He wants me to put down the dog, fine.I get up and glancing over at the smirking man."Good boy." He says with sarcasm stitched in his words.I pick the knife up and stand in front of the chained dog.I grip onto the knife and turn around to the man who dared to call himself my father. I ran to him, pushing him over, shocking him slightly."What are you doing? Kill it!" he said angerly getting up and trying to overpower me.I managed to give him a blank look while defending myself. "I am."He howled with laughter, "You think you can kill me? You don't have the guts!"
Palace of the Heartless Ch:1Ulquihime: Love in the palace of the heartlessChapter 1: Accident and breakfast with the EspadasOrihime sat alone in her room/ prison cell. Her tears had dried up but her face was still moist from the crying. She was alone, no friends no one to be kind to her in this white marble palace. A palace of evil, a palace of hollows, Las Noches. But it's what she wanted, to be taken by the enemy so that her friends might live; still the pain of it was so great it made her emotions begin to fade. A knock from the door removed her dark thoughts."Onna I'm coming in with your meal." spoke the only arrancar she really knew, her keeper, kidnapper and if Aizen wished it her executioner; Schiffer Ulquiorra. He opened the door and walked in with her simple plate of food, bread, water and some vegetables. As he set it down on the table he looked up at her face and sullen the places where the tears had steamed down."Onna were you crying?" he asked, something that shocked her. But in

I charge $2.95 for shipping (always willing to combine shipping) but I never and mean NEVER had a problem with someone saying they didn't get it or it wasn't packed properly and my feedback I have 5 stars on every category but shipping costs and that one has 4.9 so bottom line a buyer doesn't mind paying a little more for shipping as long as you do the job you should be doing as a seller.... you took a short cut and tried to be cheap about it and you got burned refund the buyers money, and hopefully if you continue to sell on ebay you will ship cards the correct way from now on. It's a no brainer.

US Steel building kits – Many offices and businesses prefer to use steel building kits because of their practicality, flexibility, and speed at which their construction in completed. Steel building kits also have several advantages compared to traditional building material that need to be constructed from scratch. First, metal prefab buildings are very sturdy. They are so durable that insurance companies usually give lower rates for premiums when they insure houses or office spaces that are within a metal prefab buildings. Second, they are cheap and very quick to assemble. The owner does not need to hire a full team of construction engineers and carpenters to build the building.
US Steel building kits are ideal for the environment because they do not add extra cost to cutting down trees or producing new steel to use for a new project. The material in most metal prefab buildings are made from recycled or excess metal that used in some construction projects, which have already been cut. The metals are considered excess or too small to utilize for the same construction project, which is why they are sold cheaper to other buyers who prefabricate them so they can be used to build sheds, small offices, warehouses, and homes.
Size of US Steel Building Kits
Because they are prefabricated, you might want to check the blueprints of the US steel building kits and present this to your city administrator. Different cities have different building codes, and prefabricated buildings must be approved first by the city engineer.
The advantages of the US steel building kits over concrete houses and wooden houses is that they are built to last. A metal prefab building over a concrete house is that it is less susceptible to wear and tear; metal is flexible unlike concrete, which tends to crumble when extreme force is applied to it. In case of strong winds, metal prefab buildings will last more than any wooden structure will do.
Among all the readily available building materials in the market, steel is considered to be the strongest that could withstand extreme forces. For this reason, it is used for making bridges and tall buildings that need to support millions of tons weight. The same can be said of steel building kits. They are designed to counter strong forces like wind and earthquakes.
What are the Buildings that use US Steel Building Kits
Commonly, metal prefab buildings are used to construct barns, warehouses, garages, sheds, and even stores. They are also perfect for multi-purpose buildings and commercial buildings that house restaurants, offices, pharmacies, and a lot of other businesses. The design of prefabricated buildings is such that they are easy to make. There are different designs that cater to modern spaces like office space, restaurants, and even schools and classrooms. They are also ideal for town hall meetings because of their spacious floor area.
What are the Requirements to Build Prefab Metal Building?
All one needs is a foundation ready to accommodate the metal prefab buildings that will be erected on the neighborhood. The steel building kits will rely on the foundation for support against calamities. The foundation will also prevent the metal prefab buildings from moving as the ground underneath it erodes or moves.
Steel building kits can be bought and ordered online. The usual delivery time will take 5 to 8 weeks. There are websites that sell metal prefab buildings, which are very convenient for space, nature, and your wallet.
Who Demands US Steel Building Kits?
It could be hard to think about the number of buildings that might be constructed from pre-fabricated metal. For instance, there are personal stores, manufacturing buildings, strip stores, church buildings, farming storage areas, and also military buildings. Pre-fabricated building packages can also be found built of lumber and artificial components. Nevertheless, steel is the better choice because of its ways to cope with fire, durability, and cost savings. These kinds of metal kits may be found in numerous sizes and styles, designed precisely for what the building is meant for.
Other structures that might be constructed from prefab metal building components might be the fitness center. The fitness center generally consists of a higher clearance ceiling. The package deal should have many supports to keep the roof in place, especially because of the reality the gyms don't have columns to interfere with the open area.
Prefabricated metal building kits might also be utilized for a house, usually when constructing a garage structure so you can store cars or a workshop. Metal garages might be built with a panelized steel stud framework because of the ease of construction on site. Metal garages also of course resist the infiltration of mold as no wood is used. They are also resistant to termites and other types if invasive bugs. Your automobiles and workshop equipment will definitely be protected within steel building kits.

A Terrible Thing to Waste a Dream
WHEN WE DREAM OF PEOPLE WE DON'T FULLY RECOGNISE, do we dream of archetypes, of more rounded fictional characters, or of fully fleshed-out real others we just haven't yet met? Have you ever woken from the deepness of sleep with that odd seeping richness of thought that tells you: this dreamt of person is significant? You let them slip away. Why? What are you waiting for? Write him or her down instantly. Don't let them die. You'll regret it.
Archetypes, in Jungian thinking, are the figures we all have access to. We all tap into the same groundswell of consciousness. We are all in this living world together. Jung didn't offer too many examples of archetypes (the 'shadow' springs to mind – we all have peripheral knowledge of the shadow in ourselves). That said, there are a multitude of possible archetypes to dream of.
Archetypes dreamt of can be a rich breeding ground to begin to line our poetry and stories with. Archetypes are cut-out figures, and so they're perfect as templates to build upon: the mother-figure, the lover-figure, the jester, the healer, the sage. Sometimes, when we've just woken from that rich, deep sleep, we're certain of whom we dreamt; perhaps though, we dreamt of many, many people all wrapped up in one archetypal figure.
There could be seen to be a blurring between the archetype and what I've called the 'more rounded fictional character.' Isn't there an archetype at the core of every character dreamt of? That said, we know when we've dreamt a fictional other when we have conversations, exchange the intensities of kisses, argue, or cry with or at others, etc, all in our sleep. What else can cause such emotional entanglements but something more than merely cut-out archetypes? What else but a fictional other?
Emotions are at the heart of our lives and interactions as humans. Emotions can unfold into creatures in dreams in their own right: they're just encased in characters' bodies. Writing these emotions when you wake will reward. You must write them as soon as you wake, however. Every second you delay, they start to disintegrate in intensity. They have a short half-life. Since the act of writing is a preservative force, this is the only way to ease the emotions' inevitable demise. Thinking about your dream without writing it will dissolve it in the air. Your dreamt of fictional characters don't deserve this fate.
How do we know if a dreamt of character is actually a person of the real world who we've yet to meet? Here you must believe. What lies beyond the dream intensity of a certain conversation, kiss, argument, tears? These aspects are all aspects of the real world re-enacted in sleep. What lies beyond reality is faith. Faith is real enough – what you believe is true: yet faith is extra real.
Extra intense, beyond reality, dream engagement is a certain knowledge. We wake and we just know that this person exists out there. It is irrational yet utterly rational, in that moment of waking, in that pure unadulterated moment where the 'real world' just can't quite yet reach. We have a force-field all around us: it's the warmth of our bedding, the warmth of ourselves, and the warmth of belief. It is a terrible thing to waste belief: write it straight away, before it all gets cold.
When we dream of people we don't fully recognise from our waking consciousness, we are walking in a rich and textured world: we are breathed upon by slim yet significant archetypes; we are touched deeply by exchanges of emotions embodied in fictional characters; we are visited – we know, because we believe – by real others who have reached across dimensions. We must not let those dreams dissolve; we must write them instantly. It is, you see, a terrible thing to waste a dream.

Today is Some Day
SOME DAYS YOU GET AN IDEA TO WRITE SOMETHING and you just let it fester. Some days that festering fermentation process is not what words need. Indeed, this process may also not be what you, the writer, need. Some days you think: I might get round to doing this or that, to writing this idea or this other. Well, this is some day.
1. Write down the ideas that have been festering away inside you for a while now. Do it now! Stop reading this, don't read to the end of the article – come back to it later. Trust me: the article wraps up fine. Write down the festering ideas. Use paper. Do it now!
2. Did you cheat? Did you just read on? If so, that's no good. You have a second chance. I'm feeling benevolent. Stop reading and write down those ideas, if you haven't already done so.
3. If you have a list, read on. If not, come back another time. You're not ready. Look at your list. Find more paper. Do it now. Write words to flesh out one of those ideas. Write ideas upon ideas, draw pictures in words, write a snippet or a scene, describe a place, describe a gesture, clothing, an interaction or the weather. Stop reading here and do it now.
4. If you're ready, you have something written. If you're not ready, and you've cheated here, you're only cheating yourself. Look at what you've written. Think about the process it took to get quickly settled to write: a comfortable chair; the TV or the music off; a room with a view? Think about how long it took you to write. Were you distracted? Why? Think about the process of writing words: did it come in one big flow?; did you edit as you went along? Think about how you felt when you started writing, when you were writing, when you placed that final full stop. Stop reading here and think on all of this now.
5. Find a notebook. Or, find some scrap paper and cut it to size. Create a means to hold it all together. Yes, do it now.
6. Write in it all the thoughts you have about what you've just written from your list. Stop reading here. Do it now.
7. Copy and paste or print off this article. You know what's coming: do it now.
Tomorrow, look at your list of once-festering ideas, read this article, repeat the process. Some days words do not need to be left to fester: they need to be written. Today has been some day. Tomorrow is also some day, as is the day after, and so on. Write until you need a new list. All days can be some days.
— Dean Cody Cassady
DCC is practising what he preaches: on his own list of festering ideas is the one to write an article a day, whether it gets published or not, for the rest of the month.
Interview: Mike Agius
GL: When did you first know that you wanted to write? Was there a light bulb-moment or a particular experience that triggered it?
MA: Have I ever wanted to write? I don't think so. I have always wanted to have written, but the idea of all the hard work to get to the 'have written' state never appealed. I have always battled against laziness. I realised some time ago that in order to have written, I needed to write. I have, as long as I can remember, had stories in my head. Sometimes I just wake up with them. The big one is set in Malta at the time of the 1565 siege. I told my childhood friend, Mike, about it, and he pestered to me get it writ, so I started. Mike devoured each chapter and kept on pestering me for more. Then he died, and I stopped.
GL: How important is reading poetry for you, as a poet? Please could you name the poets whose work you enjoy? Is there any particular poet with whom you identify?
MA: I am a computer programmer and run a small software house, so I don't have much spare time, especially given the current economic situation. When I do stop, I tend to veg out in front of the telly and then regret the wasted evening. I still do it though, despite everything. With the health scare, you would think that I would blaze all the time, but no. I veg, instead of reading and writing, which, I must admit, can be a chore. If I spent less time working, I would be more inclined to write, but when I finish work I am generally knackered. I enjoyed, and still do, Browning, who I did for 'O' level at school, because we had an inspirational teacher, Mick Curran, who brought English to life.
When I was young, my Dad, with all his innate wonder at the power of language, had me and my sister learning poetry. Daffodils and Eagles, and all that stuff that I disliked then, and avoid now. But I don't regret the learning, and the sense of wonder it imbued. More recently I have consumed everything from Catullus to poets alive today, such as Jane Yeh, Mark Haddon and Richard Price, and loads of others that our youngest daughter has nicked. I enjoyed Donne with my girls when they did him in English Lit. When I was the same age as our youngest (18), I read poetry by Blake, Hopkins and others, just like she is doing now – except, where I bought the books, she just 'borrows' mine.
Do I identify with a particular poet? I don't know enough about the subject to give an informed answer. I haven't attempted to be like anyone.
GL: The prose poem, Yummy, is about your wife, Liz. To quote a passage:
'. . . My heart beats faster when you're my pasta. A little arrabiata for a starter, with red wine, basil and pasata, plus thyme and, sizzley, some woo woo chilli, and holy moly macaroni – hot tomalley unravioli.'
Another poem, The Sadness of Gloves, is also inspired by Liz. How central is she to your writing? Does she critique your poems?
MA: She is central, I suppose. I have never felt about anyone the way I feel about her, so I do get moments of inspiration when I want to write about her in poetry. But Liz, and our eldest son, Alex, don't get poetry at all, and freely admit it.
However, they are very patient with me, and when I sit them down to listen, they do so intently; then tell me it 'is nice'. I could be reading any old crap though. Our girls are my critics. They read pretty much everything I write.
GL: Do your girls suggest edits to your work and do you accept their suggestions?
MA: Yes, both Georgia and Verity offer suggestions and if I agree I will heed them.
GL: You have written about your friend, Michael, who died six years ago. To take a few lines from the poem, Sometimes:
'. . . I reach out,
and you vanish,
as you always do,
but still I reach.
It seems simple;
elementary logic -
I reach out, and you
fade away.'
Do you find writing about him cathartic? Or do you write to keep his memory alive? Is he your muse?
MA: Mike's death started me writing poetry. I suppose it was, subconsciously, a neat way to package up the way I was feeling, and I have not stopped. I don't write about him to keep his memory alive. I think about him every day, but I don't think he is my muse. I write about Mike when we have met in my dreams. Generally, we get up to no good, and have occasional deep conversations. Just like life really, except when I wake up he's not here.
I wish that I dreamt about him more.
GL: In recent months you've written about your own diagnosis of cancer and treatment. In the poem, Exhibit, subtitled: Man – With Cancer – 2009, you express a sense of guilt:
'. . . Have I betrayed them
without knowing?
I'm a Daddy,
I cannot be sick;
yet I have arrived
at Cancer Station
un-aware that I was travelling.'
In another poem, Welcome the Bad Days, you say:
'. . . Cry in the rain
so no-one will see your tears.
Good days make you smile,
bad days shape you;
make you what you are.
Welcome the bad days,
and smile when they are gone.'
How has your illness shaped your writing?
MA: I wrote a few miserable poems, but other than that I don't think it has shaped my writing any more or less than anything else. In all ways we are the sum of our DNA and experiences; it's the weight given to experiences that affects us on a day to day basis. You don't have to succumb. Resistance is not futile.
I always thought that I had plenty of time to do everything I wanted, but the cancer made me realise that I don't and that I must prioritise and organise, and fight the tendency to laziness.
I have an English side, which I know and understand, but my Maltese half is largely a mystery to me. I know the history of Malta intimately, but I cannot think in Maltese, and I believe that to really understand a culture, you need to think in it's language. So, I have started to learn Maltese. I just got back from a holiday there, having reconnected with relatives, some of whom I have talked with over the years, but the majority I have not seen for 19 years, other than at my Auntie's funeral last year. We fell into conversation so easily. It was great to see them all again. More importantly, it was revealing the way our kids saw their own personality traits, and senses of humour in others, as well as who looked like whom. It is true that the cancer shaped my writing while I was recovering, and cancer has turned me into a raving hypochondriac. Pain in toe – oh no, toe cancer – I remember – I just stubbed it. That kind of thing. So it is an ever present demon. I look out for symptoms all the time, I guess.
Exhibit was a grind of a poem. It had a few decent lines – the Cancer Station line and the last one, which packed the punch. That was what all the other words were for – to support those two statements.
We went to London to see the museums and galleries before I had to go into hospital. At that point in time we didn't know if the cancer was stage 1 or 3 and we had 4 months of not knowing, which was a strain. I was trolling round the museum with the youngest, and she went off to the book shop so I sat on a bench at the end of a hall of exhibits, on my own, feeling alone, sad, lonely and scared. That made me think. That's where that idea came from.
Some of my pals have got cancer too, which stirs it up a bit. I am not much of a fan of my own poems but I wrote A Frightened Man as a result of what a couple of mates had said, and I do like that poem. It is sad, yet defiant.
GL: The American writer and literary theorist, Susan Sontag (1933 – 2004), said:
'It is not suffering as such that is most deeply feared but suffering that degrades.'
Do you think that suffering adversely affects the creative imagination? Or does suffering make one a better poet or writer? Please could you elaborate a little?
MA: I don't think I have suffered. I got lucky. I didn't have a battle with cancer. Who does? You just lie back and let the specialists exercise what they know, play the odds, and do what they have got to do. It's not a question I have the experience (thankfully) to answer.
GL: A recurring motif in your writing is a questioning of religion. In the prose poem, Ants, you toy with the idea of the ant being an 'agnostic.' In another poem, I quote:
'God resides in a two-up, two-down . . .'
Charles Bukowski (1920- 1984) said:
'For those who believe in God, most of the big questions are answered. But for those of us who can't readily accept the God formula, the big answers don't remain stone-written . . . We are here to unlearn the teachings of the church . . .'
Do you think this 'unlearning' of religion is vital for the craft of writing in this day and age? Do you, as a poet, find it liberating? What is it about religion that you, as a poet, find problematic to articulate?
MA: I have had a problem with Catholicism for a number of years, then faith. My Dad, being Maltese, was brought up as a strict Roman Catholic and so was I. I lost religion years ago, and I believe I am an agnostic now.
I had had my prognosis in November 2009 and it dawned on me that I had not prayed once. Not even, 'Oh God, why me?' It never occurred to me to pray, and I had quite happily surrendered to science. OK. The number of candles burning in Malta probably increased global warming considerably. There's a lot of good in religion though, and some solid logic in the philosophies, so I don't have any hatred for the religious. Also, I know some people that I totally admire who are inspired by religion. It just ain't for me.
However, I do wonder if there is a correlation between the decline in the number of people who believe that God is watching them and the increase in the number of CCTV cameras.
Does it affect my writing? I don't know. I don't think I feel that strongly either way. I am conscious that I have said 'I don't know' a number of times, but it is true. The more I learn, and the more I think, the more I realise how little I know, but I don't turn to God to provide that knowledge. As a race though, the more we learn, the farther God seems to retreat into the gaps in our knowledge. Analogous to the Emperor's clothes and Salome, and to mix a metaphor, God is running out of veils, and could soon end up naked and exposed. I know people who have done some ugly things and caused great hurt in the name of religion, and others who have shone a light into peoples' lives, and I cannot rationalise, or accept a judgement, that grants salvation to both.
We're on this earth a short while, and then we are done, and in that short time we have to do the best we can, hurt as few people as possible, improve as many others' lives as possible, and have as few regrets as possible.
GL: You often write about events: personal (Sweetest Pollen), historical or political (Black Gold, Just Make it Stop, Guernica). What are your main sources of inspiration – people, political events, travel, films or music? Please could you share a few details?
MA: Politics, travel, film and music would really have to stir me up to write about them. People, history and science float my boat. I think that it is the job of the writer to create a world where we can explore the universe and the human condition. The ancient Greek root of 'poet' is to create, and metaphor is to transfer. I like the idea that in our created worlds we can defy natural laws: have plants and animals that talk, and people float into the air. I like that we can paint a world with oblique strokes and somehow transfer it into someone else's mind to make them laugh or cry.
Can I do that? I think maybe I have, on the rare occasion: that I have got it right.
GL: Would it be fair to say that you are an urban poet, i.e. that the city and urban-scape dominate your writing? What is it particularly about this that inspires you?
MA: I live in a city and, although I occasionally write about the countryside, I tend to write about the things that happen around me mostly. People have said that I am an urban poet, but I don't think I am. Maybe I wrote a few poems together that made people think that, but it was an unconscious process for me.
GL: Do you write your poems quickly, as the ideas come? Do you keep notes? Do you need to be at a particular table or in a particular room to write? Do you write straight away on your computer or by long hand?
MA: Yep. I generally wake up with them, or they pop into my mind. I rarely sit down to compose, or struggle with an idea, and they happen anywhere and everywhere. I only use paper if I don't have a computer to hand, so I bash them straight into my lovely Mac then ignore them for a while. It takes a day or so for me to detach myself from them. Then they are no longer my babies and, although I am still interested in them, I can slash 'em up. Once they are out there, I am no longer that interested.
Occasionally, I break that rule: write and post within an hour or so. I always regret it and edit them online.
GL: In discussion about your poem, Awash, which was accepted for the We Are All Japan anthology, you say:
'I don't like my poem much, but hey, maybe that's the key to success, only run with the stuff I don't like.'
Is this a lack of confidence? Why are you so critical about your writing? Do you regularly revise? Do you ever reach a point when you think a poem is as perfect as it can get? Or do you never reach this stage?
MA: I don't think I lack confidence, I just do stuff and move on. There are a handful of poems I have written that I like. The Reluctant Cub Scout is one that I like all the way through. Others have some phrases that deliver so I consider them OK. I like what I have been writing recently more though.
I am critical and will rarely see a poem, or anything I write, as perfect. I am a perfectionist who has learned to live with my own imperfection. Having a short attention span helps. Boredom is good for me. It drives me to try new things. So I do get to a point where I accept that a poem is as perfect as I am prepared to make it. I am always mindful of the law of diminishing returns, so I cut my losses and do something new.
GL: Your poems in the main poetry forum, here in Writers' Dock, regularly get Pick of the Week commendation. Have you thought of sending your poems out for publication? Could you share a few publishers you have approached and where your poems have been published?
MA: I had one published in an anthology early on. It's not good though. I sent off a bunch to Carcanet and they were rejected. I hate that. Not that they were rejected, but I that I was not told why. I think I was batting well out of my league there though.
So I don't bother. Maybe I should send some of the more recent ones.
Christmas Surprise was picked up at www.christmas-time.com/christmasurprise and I like that poem. In hindsight, it has a neat harkening back to 'He grasps the crag with crooked hands' from my childhood learning. Not that the line was conscious though. It also has a sense of mounting panic, which I think is quite comedic.
For the time being I am happy and grateful that a jury of my peers judge anything worthy of PoTW.
GL: James Joyce (1882- 1941) wrote:
'Writing in English is the most ingenious torture ever devised for sins committed in previous lives.'
Of course, Joyce was writing from the perspective of an Irish national at the time of the British occupation of Ireland. Are you 'torturously' conscious of your choice of words, not just in terms of meaning but also in terms of sonority and enjambment of lines?
You have mentioned a 'Salfordian' accent/patois. How does this influence your writing?
MA: Not so much Salford. I went to school in Salford but I am, at heart, a Mancunian. I write the occasional poem with a regional accent. I did Joyce at Teacher Training College, so I appreciate his perspective. Also, 40% of the intake were from Ireland. Interesting days. I think that 'choice of words' tortures all writers. I've yet to meet one who doesn't agonise over a phrase. You just have to read some of the postings on WD to realise that.
GL: Malta has featured in your writing. Please could you elaborate on the importance of this place for you?
MA: Oh, it is very important. I am half Maltese, from my father's side. The English half of me gets sun burnt though. Malta is like a poem. Everything is all wrapped up in a neat package: history from megalithic times to present, art (Caravaggio's The Beheading of John the Baptist, is worth the air fare alone), architecture, music, religion, sun, sea, and food and wine. Plus, most of my relatives are there.
Almost perfect.
GL: You have recently mentioned a novel. Would you care to share a few details about this?
MA: The thought occurred that, when Harold Godwinson supposedly swore to back William the Bastard in his bid for the throne of England, there were no English witnesses, and that history is written by the victor. Also, some scholars doubt that the meeting ever took place. Why would Harold do that anyway? He was a clear contender to be elected by the High Witan. He was smart, brave, handsome and well liked, by all accounts, so why would he?
So, I decided to have a couple of heroic young men witness the meeting from a hiding place – but they are discovered. The story follows the youngsters through to manhood: in Normandy with Harold and then at Stamford Bridge, and finally Hastings where they end up fleeing in separate directions for their lives. The second book is about how one of them fights alongside Hereward the Wake, and how the other survives through various means, and their eventual victory and reunification. I have the timeline and most of the characters in place so it is pretty much plotted.
I am going to publish it through Amazon (assuming I get time to write it) under the name of Jack Slaughterman, because I do kill an awful lot of people.
GL: Finally, if you could have a wish for your writing, what would it be?
MA: Having some publishing success would be nice. To have written means that, I suppose. Wouldn't it be wonderful if someone picked up one of my stories on Amazon and liked it?
So my wish would be . . . to have written.

The Writer and the Reader: An Uncommon Bond
THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN A WRITER/POET AND THE READER IS COMPLEX. Edgar Allen Poe identified a force more intangible than a reader that drove him to write:
'With me poetry has not been a purpose, but a passion.'
Neil Gaiman clearly differentiates the two:
'If the writer were more like a reader, he'd be a reader, not a writer. It's as uncomplicated as that.'
He reinforces the common image of a writer's secret hideout, 'I move into that peculiar universe where you know you have stuff to finish and you do nothing but write.'
Flaubert evoked the intense immersion that writing entails:
'I spent the morning putting in a comma and the afternoon removing it.'
Monica Ali says, 'When the words are flying, the house could be burgled and I wouldn't notice . . . writing is a way of escaping the quotidian.'
The roots of such unworldly perspectives of writing lie in the fact that writers of early fiction were men and women of leisure. For example, the Indian romance, Kadambari, was written by Bāṇabhaṭṭa, a Sanskrit scholar and the Court Poet of King Harshavardhana, (606–647 CE). Tale of Genji was penned by the Heian Court Lady, Murasaki Shikibu (11th century). Likewise, Samuel Richardson (1689-1761), who rivals Henry Fielding (1707 -1754) as the founder of the English novel, was a middle class printer.
Thus, up until mid-nineteenth century, writing fiction was a pursuit of leisure and not a moneymaking profession. Today all major writers 'market' their work. They engage directly with the reader on their own blogs and social network sites, like Twitter and Facebook. Julian Barnes, the 2011 Man Booker Prize winner, has his own website, and so do Gaiman and Ian McEwan.
However, something more than moneymaking underpins this relationship between the writer and the reader. Why do we write at all? Why not just think it? Writing pre-supposes a reader, an audience.
Paul Auster (1947-), the American crime fiction writer, describes the novel as 'an equal collaboration between the writer and the reader.' It is, he says, 'the only place in the world where two strangers can meet on terms of absolute intimacy.'
Joyce quipped about Finnegan's Wake, 'I've put in so many enigmas and puzzles that it will keep the professors busy for centuries arguing over what I meant, and that's the only way of insuring one's immortality.'
Writing happens in that inexplicable spark between reader and writer. Beckett understood this:
'I cannot explain my plays. Each must find out for himself what is meant.'
— Golden Langur
Book Review: Remembering Babylon (David Malouf)
MALOUF IS AN ACCLAIMED AUSTRALIAN WRITER OF MIXED DESCENT (Lebanese Christian father and English-born Portuguese Jewish mother). This novel won the prestigious International IMPAC Dublin Award (1996).
It tells the story of Gemmy, a white orphan abandoned from a ship and rescued by Aborigines. Gemmy suddenly and literally erupts into the life of a Scottish-origin family, the McIvors, in the Australian outback.
'Do not shoot. I am a British object', are the first of the rare words he utters to Lachlan Beattie, an adopted cousin of the clan, and he remains an object felt mainly by his startling effects on others. Gemmy thus is an ambiguous mixed figure belonging neither to the whites nor the Aborigines; a creature both of the slums where he was brought up and the Outback, into which he was adopted. He has no language and thus becomes a passive catalyst for bringing out latent reactions in others. In some cases this is naked hostility from the McIvors' white neighbours. He arouses their suspicions and ends up being victimised, but he also transforms the McIvors generally, importing into their colonial seclusion a taste of the blinding light and dark matter of the Outback. Jock McIvor, the head of the family, for instance, is moved to find the beauty and wonder of insect life: something he would never have owned up to before.
The story of Gemmy is told in scattered moments and flashes of beautiful prose, rather than a continuous narrative. Indeed the narrator's voice is pitched in an extraordinary way between inside and outside, landscape and mind, which enables Malouf to unleash his verbal virtuosity – the opposite of Gemmy's near silence – to powerful effect in the description and mind-reading of his setting and characters.
Language is central to the book, manifest in the beauty of description and fundamental charity of the author to even his most unpleasant of characters (such as Andy, a neighbour of the McIvors, who makes up false stories to implicate Gemmy in an Aboriginal plot), creating a lyrical effect whose main subject is Australia itself. This emerges in the quotations from the field notebooks of Frazer, the minister for whom Gemmy becomes a trusting and trusted informant on the wild side of Australia's nature. (Another Frazer, incidentally, was an early anthropologist, the author of the Sacred Bough, perhaps a hint from Malouf about his intentions.)
Gemmy represents, and is, 'Aboriginal' in both senses of the word, yet by not actually being an Aborigine he represents it at a remove. He becomes an elusive and fugitive signifier of something always elsewhere, 'the other' – to use the jargon of the then fashionable (1993, the year the book was published) semiotic movement.
The centre of the book is the transfiguration – if one can use such a loaded term for it – of the McIvor girl, Janet, who is covered by bees and yet survives. Bees play an important part in Aboriginal myth as agents of transformation, and the Queen Bee that Janet turns into later becomes a nun, as if to consecrate this strange transformation into a Virgin Mary figure. Gemmy, who ends up as a parcel of bones on a tree, but alive in his affects on the others whom his life has touched, is a Christ-like figure: two-natured aboriginal and white and a redemptive force. Thus the writer fuses native spirituality with the great themes of Christianity also. Throughout the work there is a pervasion of a religious sense, a kind of sacred manna which appears most strongly in the language of the book itself – Gemmy is 'sensitive to this dealing between name and spirit' and so is Malouf. 'It was like peering through into the City of God', says Lachlan, about the hives kept by the nuns, when he visits Janet. It is an apt quote about the book itself.
The one criticism of the book, if I may make it, is that the ending after the disappearance of Gemmy – presumed dead and a packet of bones hung up on a tree – seems to suddenly deflate and become detached from the main body of the work as we follow the fates of the McIvors. Apart from that I found the book a beautiful and unusual work of poetic fiction, and one might add, from a writer for whom beauty of both word and thought are paramount.

Terrie's StoryWoo-hoooo! This is my 100th recipe posted! :o)
These pumpkin cream cheese bars are just right for this Fall season. They are moist, lightly spiced, and have just the right amount of sweetness. No need for frosting ... just cool, cut and serve!
Semi-sweet chocolate chips are optional.
If you don't have pumpkin pie spice, mix together 1 tsp. ground cinnamon, 1/4 tsp. ground nutmeg and 1/4 tsp. ground ginger...voilá!
Blue Ribbon Recipe
Notes from the Test Kitchen:
What a perfect treat on a perfect fall afternoon! This will be a great pumpkin dessert for your Thanksgiving meal.
What a perfect treat on a perfect fall afternoon! This will be a great pumpkin dessert for your Thanksgiving meal.
8 oz
cream cheese, softened
1/4 c
1 c
solid pack pumpkin in a can
1 c
1/3 c
vegetable oil
1 c
all-purpose flour
1 tsp
pumpkin pie spice [see note in comments]
1 tsp
baking powder
1/2 tsp
baking soda
1/2 tsp
1/2 c
chopped pecan pieces
Directions Step-By-Step
1Preheat oven to 375°
2Spray a 9x13" baking pan with PAM or Baker's Joy. Set aside.
3For filling, whisk together softened cream cheese, sugar and egg. Mix with a hand mixer until well-blended and smooth. Set aside.
4For batter, combine pumpkin, sugar, egg and oil in medium mixing bowl. Mix well.
Stir in flour, pumpkin pie spice, baking powder, baking soda, & salt. Mix well to combine.
5Pour batter into prepared baking dish, and spread to cover bottom of pan.
Drizzle the cream cheese mixture over the batter. Cut through the batter with a knife or spatula, to make a marbled effect w/ the cream cheese mixture. Do this a second time, going in the opposite direction [i.e., if you go side to side the first time, go up and down the second time]. When doing the marbling, be cautious and don't let your knife drag or touch the bottom of the baking dish.
6Sprinkle with the chopped pecans.
Bake 25 - 28 minutes, or until a cake tester comes out clean.
7Cool the entire pan of bars, then cut into squares.
Makes 18 squares.

Wedding: 5/24/2014
My photographers were great!!! I am so so thankful I used JF Photography - my engagement pictures turned out beautiful!! Steve and Joe were fantastic the day of my wedding! I was an hour late because of my hair and makeup but Steve made me feel relaxed and ensured me we would get all my pictures in! They were great with my bridal party and my parents. Steve would show me some pictures after he took them and they were breathtaking! I can't wait to see all of my pictures from the day! I highly highly recommend them - super professional, super organized, super friendly - great resumes!!!
Wedding: 8/3/2013
Wow! Lori and Christina from JF were absolutely amazing!! My husband and I knew that our pictures would come out beautifully, but I never expected such amazing work! Lori began by calling me a few days before the wedding to get to know us, give us information, and take and questions and requests we had. The day of the wedding was just amazing. Both of these ladies are so talented and worked so well together! Every moment of our wedding day was captured! From the posed shots to the candid moments at the reception, we were just so thrilled. We never felt bothered or were pulled away from our reception to get a few shots. From the professionalism of these ladies and of JF to the speediness of the proofs to the price, we could not have made a better choice! We absolutely recommend JF-be sure to ask for Lori and Christina!

Jamal and Joseph worked our wedding this past weekend and they were fabulous! JF Photography Studio was recommended to me by a co-worker. I saw her wedding book and fell in love with their work. Jamal arrived on time and you could tell he did his homework (he knew my sister, the MOH, name and all the shots I requested). He was such a pleasure to work with. I can't wait to see how my photos turn out!!!
Wedding: 4/21/2013
My photographer was great. She was out of the way but yet she got the pictures that we needed. She was open to suggestions and allowed my family and friends to take pictures. I did my enagament session in a park in Westfield...beautiful! I was able to get all my photos on a hi-res cd and I received 3 pictures printed in which I was on my wedding day. I opted not to buy an album but I received a photo book and a high-res cd. Pictures were ready on 3 weeks after my wedding. The office staff is very nice and willing to work with you.
Wedding: 8/30/2012
JF Photography was extraordinary!!!!!! Do yourself a favor and give them a call. We checked out many photography services and JF Photography was the best by far! They were very the best in price, friendliness, service, and follow ups with them were so pleasant. I was afraid that having a photographer and videographer with us all day would be intrusive but that was FAR from the truth. In fact, it was fun. They were so accommodating and professional it was a pleasure having them with us from soup to nuts. They asked for a list of shots ahead of time to make sure that they captured every person and situation that we wanted. But then they went far beyond that to create wonderful "artsy" shots that are going to be incredible. For instance, they brought us into the dining room while our guests continued to enjoy the cocktail hour. They photographed us doing our wedding dance in the gorgeous wedding hall and even had us sit down on the exquisite, shiny marble floor with my wedding dress billowing out around us. The situations he set up were ultra- creative and we are so excited to see the results. We had 140 guests and everyone commented that both Jamal (the photographer) and Ron ( the videographer) were fun, unobtrusive, and actually added to the celebratory feeling of the evening. And when you contact JF, MaryAnn will give you over- the- top professional and friendly service. But the proof is in the pudding! If you want to go to my husband's facebook page in a few weeks you will see the results of their services (Stan Michael Plachinski). We cannot recommend them highly enough! Lori and Stan Plachinski
Wedding: 6/30/2012
Love them! We did i not pick our album and prints yet, but the proofs were ready about 2 weeks after the wedding and they look gorgeous! The photographers were friendly and funny to make it enjoyable to take so many pictures. I was running late getting ready and he was patient waiting for me. There is a lot included in the package for a reasonable price.
Wedding: 10/9/2011
Bob was wonderful and very helpful. He took all the pictures we requested. Because of time constraints there was an extra photographer prior to the wedding. Great job.
Wedding: 9/10/2011
Steve took our pictures and he was great. He was very accommodating to us and our guests. The pictures turned out beautiful. We were very happy with the results.
Wedding: 9/17/2011
Very reasonably priced, very quick to get us our proofs.
Wedding: 8/4/2006
We absolutely loved all our pictures!!
Wedding: 2/11/2011
Bob was our photographer and he was amazing!!! We just received our high resolution CD with the photos and they are perfect!!! I can't wait to see our album. The price was very reasonable and we got alot for our money, including an engagement sitting. I am very happy with JF Photography! I went on a recommendation and I'm glad I did!
Wedding: 10/30/2010
I had 2 photographers and 1 videographer from this company. The photographers did a great job taking pictures of before hand, at the ceremony, and reception. They were not intrusive, and captured all the special moments- plus ones I didn't even know were going on! They were worth every penny I spent! I highly recommend JF Photography!
Wedding: 9/10/2010
JF was wonderful the day of the wedding. They were on time and very professional. They made sure they got all the shots we requested. Jamall and Joseph did a great job!
Wedding: 8/5/2006
He was laid-back unobtrusive, and our point contact at JF Photogrpahy, Mary Ann, is as nice and helpful as can be. However, we definitely have to make the effort to call about our finished photo album, and it's be a slower turnaround than expected.
They were attentive to my list of photos I wanted and made sure they got every single one. The assistant was amazing, like having a personal assistant. She helped fix my bustle when it broke, held my purse, etc. And she took some great candids. Photo quality is great, plus the proofs come in bound books (great keepsakes) and they also give a CD and DVD slideshow of all proofs.;The primary photographer was a little too much with the posed shots - I think he just got a little carried away. So it took a little more time than we had anticipated and we ended up missing most of the cocktail hour (which we wanted to enjoy). Also if we didn't specifically list a photo, they didn't take it. I had assumed they would see 'family pics' and realize we wanted one with me, hubby, and my parents (pretty standard) but they never took one. Also he wasn't that great with posing people for the larger group shots, he just let everyone stand where they were.
Wedding: 7/7/2007
He was very experienced and made sure that we told him in advance for anything specific we were looking for. At the reception, he took plenty of pictures without being in the way all the time. He interrupted us as little as possible, but still managed to take amazing photos.;With the digit package comes a CD with all your wedding proofs on it. I figured I'd pay the extra money for this deal so I (and friends and family) could print them out. However, the CD only works as a DVD and you cannot print off clear pictures, so this is really not worth the extra money!
Wedding: 4/20/2007
Wedding: 2/21/2009
JF Photographer's were very helpful; they knew exactly how to capture every moment. We hired 2 photographers for the evening together they captured every moment. The photographers' personalities were enjoyable and personable. For our favors we surprised everyone with martin glasses filled with Hershey kisses and additional photographers took and printed 5X7 photos for every couple at our wedding. I highly recommend them.
Wedding: 6/30/2007
knew exactly what to do and was prompt. No downtime. Very friendly.
Wedding: 11/5/2005
wonderful work, very professional and the cost was decent

Izzy had a rough night with some nerves about school. She was looking forward to it, generally speaking, but fourth grade brings a new (to the school) teacher. She woke up with plenty of time to get ready (after waking us up multiple times in the night), made her breakfast, packed her snacks and dressed quickly. I didn't even walk her to school. She set off with a friend and fellow classmate, picking up another child on route. At lunch she was happy to report that the teacher is very nice, and two years younger than me. She gets a locker this year and starts french classes this afternoon. Overall, a very happy Izzy on her first day. Not that shocking though.
Alex did some online work. Rob is off work this week so we won't really get into our sit down stuff until next week. This is his last year homeschooling and I plan to enjoy it as much as I can. He's not thrilled about going to school but is coming around. Change happens and he is learning to roll with the punches. Puberty helps. He seems to be more willing to spread his wings. He says he may even consider starting before the end of this year, like late Spring. We'll see what time brings.
