50 and Beyond
50 and Beyond
Dear Linux Magazine Reader,
This month we
celebrate the 50th issue of Linux Magazine. That makes this month a sort of golden anniversary or "jubilee," as we like to call it. If you're quick with math, you have probably already determined that 50 issues is four years and two months of Linux Magazine. If you do not work in publishing, you may be wondering if four years is really enough for a party. Actually, emerging magazines compete fiercely in the jungle of reader expectations. Many startup magazines collapse within the first year due to the pressures of circulation quotas, budgets, and deadlines. Four years really is a long time for a new magazine. We at Linux Magazine are proud of the steady growth that has led to tens of thousands of readers in over a hundred countries. And we are proud to be part of a very interesting publishing experiment.

The house is completely self-sufficient and requires no external power to run. The super small and sustainable house makes use of the natural elements it is surrounded by, making use of technology like solar cells on the roof, rainwater collection barrels and natural ventilation.

Bees boss targets striker
09 Jan 2008 - 14:53:05
New Brentford manager Andy Scott is hoping to sign a striker to bolster his strikeforce in the January transfer window.
Scott currently has both Lee Thorpe and Charlie Ide sidelined by injuries and he is eager to bring in a fresh face to keep his side's positive momentum going.
He told the Richmond Times: "We have got a budget to stick to and have got to make some changes, but what I will do is get the right type of player in.
"Those who are hungry and want to play will fit in with the framework we have got.
"We have got a good team spirit here now and I don't want to bring in someone who will undo all the good work we've done. So character is very important to me.
"I am not going to jump in and get someone who is wrong for the club."

How can I rotate a symbol so that it displays differently?
A symbol's orientation, origin, and other characteristics can be adjusted in its Symbol Specification dialog.
In this example, we will change the rotation of a hand tool symbol that ordinarily sits on a table or countertop, so that it stands upright and can be displayed on a vertical pegboard. To do this, we will create a new folder in the Library Browser, copy and paste a 3D symbol into that folder, and then adjust this symbol's settings.
We can see that the newly pasted object has the same name as the original, and now we are ready to make changes to just that symbol.
Now that we have adjusted the orientation of our 3D symbol, we are ready to adjust the display of this object in 2D as well.
Note: In the Symbol Specification dialog, you can also choose how this object is placed in the plan on the Options tab, its Materials on the Materials tab, and it's Sizing.

Finally, EA has officially announced Need for Speed: Carbon, and we've got the first neon-screens and teaser trailer showing off this year's sure-fire Christmas number one contender.
The latest Need for Speed mixes things up a bit by moving you out of the ghetto and onto some dangerous canyon roads. Fighting for city territories, ultimately you must settle your rivalries on narrow canyon circuits alongside deadly pitfalls. Your mates, or 'crew', will also be there to help you and are now fully customisable using EA's new-fangled 'Autosculpt' technology.
"We pride ourselves on our ability to reinvent the franchise and continually uncover new and exciting trends in car culture," says Carbon producer, Larry Lapierre. "Canyon Racing is a real test of a driver's skill and we think it provides a fantastic game play opportunity to lean into."
Need for Speed: Carbon is currently planned for a November release on Xbox 360, PC, PlayStation 3, Wii and virtually every other current console. We'll let you know how it's shaping up as soon as we get our hands on the wheel.

Just received my weekly report, from the head of Hort. from the Uni. of RI. She mentioned this am. that the Winter Moth eggs have started turning blue and that our first spray of insecticide should start in a week if not sooner. That said, question. . . My peaches (what will be left of the flower buds due to frost) will be opening within the next week. Is it wise to spray so soon? Mrs. G |
Follow-Up Postings:
If you've got insect issues, I think you want to get in at least one spraying before the buds open, a week ahead sounds good to me. Once the flowers open you won't want to spray again until petal drop unless you want to kill all the bees and other pollinating insects. |
- Posted by harvestman 6 (My Page) on Thu, Apr 17, 14 at 8:09
I think you should spray on need and not by recipe for this pest. Isn't BT affective against winter moth? If so, you can wait to determine if there is infestation in your own trees before spraying. They should stop feeding as soon as they ingest BT and it will not harm the bees. I get a little of this pest every year- they only affect the apples for me but I never spray them- there are usually plenty of flowers to spare it there are any, so the moths are helping me thin. You might consider getting a good magnifying glass for the purpose and scout your trees for eggs. It is a good exercise for the serious home orchardist. You can't develop monitoring muscles without exercise. Too much Triazide will create an imbalance in your orchard, for sure, and you will likely eventually pay for doing the easy thing and killing too many allies. |
Thanks all! Mrs. G |

Abandoning art to the advertisers' hard sell
Life has a pace and a shape to it that are perhaps uniquely linked. This natural phenomenon has at best fashioned the quality of work required in order to sustain a family unit (I am aware that 'family unit' can be translated in different ways). There was a time when one income, perhaps mixed with parsimony, could pay for the housing, clothing and feeding of a number of people.

Italian bonds turned a first-quarter rally into the third-worst performance in Europe as concern mounted that government leaders won't prevent the debt crisis from spreading to the region's biggest fixed-income market.
Italy's debt had the second-best returns after Portugal of the 17 euro-area nations in the three months through March and then handed investors a loss of 2.2 percent in the past quarter. Italian bonds fell for a third day with the 10-year yield rising 9 basis points to 6.07 percent after European Central Bank President Mario Draghi said yesterday a cut in interest rates to a record low may offer little help as the euro-area economy slides toward recession.
The government led by Italian Prime Minister Mario Monti approved 4.5 billion euros ($5.6 billion) of spending cuts for this year and 26 billion over three years as part of a broader plan announced early today to trim the size of the public administration and stave off further tax increases. The rise in yields has hampered efforts to lower the nation's 1.9 trillion euros of debt.
"The political fraternity has done nothing to get Italy onto a path where its potential growth rates in the future would make one confident that it could gradually start eating away at that debt mountain," said Marc Ostwald, a fixed-income strategist at Monument Securities Ltd. in London.
Italian bond yields fell after the ECB said in December that it would offer unlimited three-year loans to euro-area financial institutions. The 10-year rate was as low as 4.68 percent on March 9, down 280 basis points from the Nov. 9 euro- era record of 7.48 percent.
Spanish Banks
Even as the ECB helped boost Italian bond returns in the first quarter, the country's budget deficit increased. Italian yields climbed in the second quarter as Spain was forced to request as much as 100 billion euros ($125 billion) to help recapitalize its banks.
Yields on both nations' 10-year debt then slid in the days following the June 28-29 summit of European leaders in Brussels, which paved the way for debt relief for Spanish banks. Spain's benchmark rate was at 6.9 percent at 9 a.m. in Madrid, down from 7.01 percent on June 28.
The ECB sought to maintain the stimulus momentum yesterday when policy makers cut the region's key interest rate to an all- time low of 0.75 percent from 1 percent.
"We still expect a gradual, slow recovery around the end of the year," Draghi said at a press conference in Frankfurt, adding that the interest cuts will reduce the cost of central bank loans for struggling banks. "The baseline scenario hasn't changed, although the downside risks are now materializing."
Yield Gap
The extra yield investors demanded to hold Italy's 10-year debt over similar-maturity German bunds surged to as much as 490 basis points, or 4.9 percentage points, in June, up about 200 basis points from their March low. It was at 469 basis points today.
"There is a possibility we could see a 5 percent spread versus 10-year government bonds by the end of the summer," said Yannick Naud, a London-based portfolio manager at Glendevon King Ltd., who helps oversee $163 million in assets.
Italy's high level of government debt and low growth make it more vulnerable to Europe's financial crisis than other euro members, the European Commission said May 30. The Mediterranean nation is mired in its fourth recession since 2001. It also will post the second-highest debt, according to commission forecasts.
Italy has pledged to reduce its budget deficit to 1.7 percent of gross domestic product this year and trim it to 0.5 percent in 2013. The country had the third-worst performing bond market after Greece and Spain in the three months through June as Monti's administration was forced to push back deficit- reduction targets.
European Whirlwind
"There was a looming feeling that Italy was going to get caught up in the whirlwind of stress that affected so many other of the weaker economies in the euro zone and that's what has been undermining Italian debt over recent weeks," said John Wraith, a fixed-income strategist at Bank of America Merrill Lynch in London. "Their macro data has taken a turn for the worse. There are persistent stories that Italian voters are starting to lose patience with a technocratic government."
Monti's popularity with investors was damaged after he passed watered-down labor-market legislation on June 27. He was forced to temper proposals to revive Italy's economy by making it easier for distressed companies to fire workers after Italy's biggest union called a general strike and a key political ally vowed to oppose the bill.
Concern that Monti will be unable to cut spending and boost the competitiveness of Italy has driven borrowing costs at auctions back to 2011 levels. The euro-region's third-largest economy paid the most to sell 10-year debt since December on June 28.
"It's self-fulfilling," Glendevon's Naud said. "Every day you have to pay high interest to refinance your existing debt. Slowly that should put pressure on Italian government bonds."

Arkansas Unemployment Rate Unchanged At 7.2 Percent
By Associated Press
The Arkansas unemployment rate for March was unchanged at 7.2 percent.
The state Department of Workforce Services said Friday that the state's number of unemployed people declined, but not enough to change the jobless rate.
The national unemployment rate for March fell from 7.7 percent in February to 7.6 percent.
For the month, Arkansas jobs increased in 10 major industry sectors and declined in one sector, manufacturing.
Professional and business services jobs grew by almost 3,000 positions and administrative and support services increased by 2,500 jobs. The retail sector added 2,200 jobs.
Manufacturing jobs fell by 900, mainly in nondurable goods.

The Policy Dialogue on Entrepreneurship Informs and connects thought leaders looking to understand policies that help entrepreneurs start companies, create jobs and re-start the economy. Sign up to receive our weekly update!

The U.S. Department of Commerce, in collaboration with INADEM (the Mexican National Entrepreneurship Institute), Mexico's Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the Organization of American States, is organizing a high-level visit and cooperative exchange to three Mexican centers of innovation and entrepreneurship later this summer.
Another week, another look at the US and how individual states line up when it comes to promoting entrepreneurial growth. Last week, we highlighted the State New Economy Index from ITIF that showed Massachusetts on top of the list of states that adapt to continual economic evolution. The week before that, the latest Small Business Friendliness survey from Thumbtack.com and the Kauffman Foundation handed out A+ grades to Utah, Idaho and Texas. This week? It's North Dakota's turn to shine.
Cities have clearly become laboratories for startup ecosystems. While each city faces an array of regulations imposed by national and regional levels of government, many local leaders have used smart policy levers to differentiate their cities and attract entrepreneurs.
The Obama Administration unveiled additional details recently of its FY 2015 budget request, which includes $25 million for a Regional Innovation Strategies Program that will continue coordinated interagency competitions.
If you are looking for a job, you may want to consider looking in North Dakota. According to a new survey by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, the job growth rate in North Dakota is far beyond that of any other state. As policymakers across the country work to foster strong entrepreneurial ecosystems, Enterprising States: Getting Down to Small Business takes an in-depth look at the priorities, policies and programs of the 50 states that are vital for job growth and economic prosperity.
Each quarter, the Chamber tracks the outlook of entrepreneurs and small business owners on their businesses, the local economy and the U.S. economy. In the latest survey, overwhelmingly, they think the national economy is not headed in the right direction. However, the numbers improve as the focus narrows to the local economy (47% said it was on the right track) and their own business (68%). Unfortunately, that may not translate to more jobs though as only 20% thought they would add employees in the year ahead.
In a world where seemingly every nation is scrambling to bolster innovation and entrepreneurship, how can the U.S. strengthen its competitiveness? According to a new report from the Department of Commerce, the formula is simple and based on looking at the country's track record for promoting innovation—increased government funding for research, education and infrastructure. It argues that "failures to properly invest in, and have comprehensive strategies for" those three pillars are responsible for the shrinking gap between the US and other nations.
The Policy Dialogue on Entrepreneurship brings to light various policies and initiatives to advance innovation and drive economic growth.

COLUMBIA — A South Carolina man says he wants his personal information removed from the federal health care marketplace after it inadvertently went to a man in North Carolina trying to log onto the government website.
Columbia attorney Thomas Dougall said Tuesday federal officials have yet to contact him about the security breach.
His case prompted questions in Washington about the security of the website that's been riddled with technical problems since its Oct. 1 launch.
Medicare chief Marilyn Tavenner told a Senate committee that Dougall's issue was fixed Monday with a software update. But Dougall says he still doesn't know the extent of the breach, and he wants his data deleted.
Dougall says he emailed the administration after learning last Friday that a North Carolina resident received his information.

With its boom-clap beat and bed of synths, "Right By My Side" is a solid pop track that, dare we say it, actually reminds us a bit of Brown's 2007 duet with Jordin Sparks, "No Air".
The song is the latest tune to surface from Minaj's upcoming Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded (out April 3), which also features pair-ups with Lil Wayne, Drake, Young Jeezy, Cam'ron and Rick Ross, among others.
What do you think of Nicki And Chris' collaboration?

Roof Mounted LED Light
Fri, 04/12/2013 - 3:46pm
Larson Electronics' (Kemp, TX) Magnalight has released the RFM-LED-7 roof mounted, manual controlled LED light. The six inch LED head is nearly immune to vibration and delivers a tight spot beam to nearly 600 feet in distance. Energized by the vehicle's standard power system, the RFM-LED-7 is mounted via a half inch hole in the roof. The included mounting secures the light in place and operators use the handle to pivot and tilt the LED light head. A thumb accessible switch enables operators to power the light on and off easily. Unlike the halogen predecessors, the LED light head has a 50,000 life hour rating and does not break down like the filament in the halogen bulbs, says the company.

It's all fun and games until the riddle turns out to mirror a real-life murder. As competing teams scurry from Monte Carlo to Corsica, from Rome to Siena, hidden hints both bewilder them and spur them on to the next destination as they try hilariously to work out the Clue-style murder mystery.
Brooke Davis' story of a little girl named Millie Bird turns child abandonment into an adventure. After her father dies and her mother leaves her in the ladies' underwear department, Millie finds two improbable helpers: Karl, who types out everything he says or feels with his fingers, and Agatha, who writes complaint letters and catalogs her aging body's daily changes. Karl and Agatha, both in their 80s and widowed, have lived long lives but don't quite know how to live now. Millie's predicament gives them a reason to try.

O. Henry Prize winner Jan Ellison's debut novel is a puzzle with the outside pieces finished. Reading it is like compulsively fitting all those revealing middle pieces together. Annie Black, a happily married 40-something San Francisco businesswoman, delves into her careless youth after her 21-year-old son is injured in a car accident. Spinning a tale of the three drunken months she spent in Europe in 1989, she demonstrates how the past can shape the future.

In Michael Crummey's novel, Sweetland, a Newfoundlander named Queenie offers some literary criticism. Concerning books about her province, she says: "It was a torture to get through them. They were every one depressing. . . . Or nothing happened. Or there was no point to the story." She adds that they are unrecognizable and probably written by outsiders.
The members of the Last Death Club are kicking the bucket one by one, some of them practically under the nose of irascible Victorian detective Sidney Grice, in The Curse of the House of Foskett.

This is a Damson plum I got from ADF several years ago as a 18" whip. It is just begginning it's 4th or 5th year and as you can see has grown phenomenally. It was even started in a pot and when transplanted was root bound as all get out, infact: roots had punched thru the plastic pot as I had buried the pot for winter. This has to be the easiest fruit tree you could possibly grow. This is bothered by NOTHING except plum curculio. I don't even spray it anymore. This spring I noticed (even before leaf out) that the bark had cracked terribly. As you can see it was cracking everywhere around the trunk and up into the tree. Surprisingly the tree seems to be suffering no ill effects from this other than a lighter than normal crop load. Any ideas? I LOVE this tree...the fruit smells SO good and the flesh is unbelievable sweet. It would be too sweet if not balanced by the ultra tart skin. I don't want to loose this beauty. BTW...I just bought this place not quite 4 years ago. Can you believe that growth?...and I pruned it hard once. |
Follow-Up Postings:
I guess it is bothered by something other than PC. And it looks serious. If it gets worse you might want to plant another. |

Wet from rain...in fact it's raining when I take this photo. I would estimate trunk diameter at around 8"...height probably 14' maybe more, with about an equal spread. |

The more I think about it, the trunk I think is probably 8" minimum...probably larger. I think I paid $6.98 for this tree and even got a free red maple and a forsythia...which is also growing beautifully. The price for this tree has went up every year since and I think now is around $10 or $12. |

The brown stuff you see near the smaller cracks is latex caulking which I applied late winter/early spring in a vain attempt to prevent infection. |

1 last photo. I am really thinking some sort of freeze damage. We had a absolutely brutal winter...one night going to -14 on the thermometer and ridiculously cold with the wind chill. I may have also fertilized a bit too late keeping sap up in the tree, but I can't remember. One thing I know I did was apply a handful of triple super phosphate 0-48-0 to stimulate root growth during the dormant period. Maybe fluid stayed up in the tree into the freezing temps causing a small split. Maybe this split allowed water infiltration that again later froze and expanded causing the damage. If not this then I have no idea. Is it possible for a tree to grow so quickly as to outgrow it's skin/bark? When I saw how fast this tree wanted to grow I thought I'd "bodybuild" it beyond normal just to see how big I could get it"...kinda silly I know. Ideas? Anybody? BTW...the bucket in the photo is covering 2 mouse traps baited w/peanut butter and oatmeal to hopefully snag some of my resident voles. |

OK...I lied...Forgot I took these photos. Doesn't have anything to do with the cracking issue...just thought I'd post. This is a pic of the fruit...pretty representative of the average. It set a lighter than normal crop this year, I suspect due to the cracking issue couple with cold and rain at time of bloom. You can see the PC damage on the fruits to the left in the photo. Found Imidan offered on Ebay. Think I'm going to get some. Triazicide seems to offer little in the way of PC control. I noticed it's not a listed insect in the informational literature. I will say, that it appears as if the PC never gets anywhere with their scraping. I've many times carefully cut into the fruit and there is nothing below the skin. I read another poster here that said the same thing. I don't even want this skin marring. Will Imidan stop this? |
Appleseed, I have no idea what has caused it. To me, it looks almost like your tree was on steroids and it burst out of its own skin. |

Difficult to see in this photo, but some fruit up in the canopy that will be ripe in a week or so. This seems to be a trait of the Damson (uneven ripening). I actually like this because in a good year it would be just too much at once unless you wanted to make the famous Damson jam/jelly. |

Why Native Foods Cafe is the Best Vegetarian Restaurant in Denver
As the longtime author of Veggie Girl, I ate a lot of green on my way to helping choose the winner of Best Vegetarian Restaurant for the Best of Denver 2014. And there was a lot of discussion over our ultimate choice: Native Foods Cafe, which came to Glendale last year. Denver is lucky to have some great homegrown vegetarian restaurants that have helped to cultivate this town's cultural scene -- but Native Foods upped the ante in the kitchen.Ursula Romaine
See also: Five best vegetarian restaurants in Denver
First things first: Yes, Native Foods is part of a California-based chain. But although we typically don't bestow Best Of awards on chain restaurants, there were plenty of reasons to do so in 2014. I visited Native Cafe multiple times, tasting something from every section of the menu, and everything I tried was delicious. I'm not the only fan of the place; it's so popular that there's usually a line forming at the door when this location opens for lunch. (There's a Native Foods in Boulder, too, and the company will open a third metro location on South Colorado Boulevard later this year.)Ursula Romaine
Native Foods creates a high hurdle for its kitchen by operating as an entirely plant-based (aka vegan) restaurant -- so there's no egg or dairy in any of the recipes. But the menu is still full of ambitious, well-executed dishes. I've taken more than one meat-eater to Native Foods, and on my most recent visit, a meat-eating relative proclaimed that her meal was the best she'd had for as long as she could remember -- and then she said she'd eat every meal at Native Foods if she could. I've never heard such an endorsement for any other vegetarian restaurant from a carnivore.
Not only is the food consistently delicious, but the service shines: You hardly have to look up at Native Foods before someone will bring you a drink refill or ask if there's anything else you need. Combined with the dishes coming out of the kitchen, that service pushed Native Foods over the top.
It's possible that the all-new, all-vegan Native Foods looks all bright and shiny now, but with time the service will slow and the kitchen will get tired. We'll be watching -- and eating. As for all the other vegetarian spots in town, there's always next year.

Find Your Peace in Being ObeseIt's important for us, no matter what size we are, to love ourselves right where we are today. Sure, we may not like certain things about ourselves. But then again, does anybody really love everything they were born with? Having inner peace means that we accept who and where we are right at this given moment. If we are not at peace within ourselves, then we will not appreciate the journey ahead that we may be getting ready to embark upon. For me, that journey is obesity and my continuing struggles while working my way out of that particular medical category. Do you struggle with accepting yourself daily? I'm not referring to the dislike of your current weight, or the type of hairstyle that you have. I'm not talking about your demographical location, or the lifestyle you live. I'm talking about self-love. If we do not have self-love, then we will never feel worthy of change. We will never respect ourselves enough to want to change anything. To love yourself right where you're at means to look at your self in a bigger and brighter light, beyond the external images that we all view in the mirror. You must realize that you are in this world for a reason, and that you deserve to be happy. You deserve to have peace in your life. Take a moment right now and stand in front of a mirror, and ask yourself this question: "What do I love about myself today?" For me, this was a very difficult process to undergo when I was asked to perform it. I had tried and struggled for years to lose the 100+ pounds that I had gained since my daughters death in 2002. However, I never quite felt worthy of losing weight and getting myself healthy again because I had hated who I had become. I carried a lot of guilt in not being able to save my daughter, and it came out emotionally in the form of overeating. I could not stand to look at my self in the mirror, any mirror, or in any type of reflection. It was just too painful. I felt so ugly, so disgusting, so unworthy. Finally, one day I just decided to take my biggest fear and come face to face with it because I was tired of being obese. I looked in the mirror and gently said, "I love you, Kymberly. I love you today, I love you fat, I love you unhealthy, and I love you enough to make you my priority. From today forward, I will love you daily, and I will love you unconditionally." This is a true story. And I have taken this promise to heart ever since. After having that life-changing moment with myself, I decided to enter a contest that I had seen online. I realized that in order to overcome my biggest fear (the fear of people seeing my body unmasked from my baggy clothing style statement)and to finally be free of the 'bondage' that fear had over me, I would reveal my body to the world~ and in a bikini, of all things! What a scary, nerve-wrecking, anxiety-ridden moment for me. But I did it! I posted my 'before' pictures on the website for the world to see. Do you want to know why I did that? Because in order to find my inner-peace, I had to stop allowing the world to define me by my size, my weight, and my looks. That was the most freeing moment that I can ever recall having in my entire life. Today, I no longer wear baggy clothing or look at myself in the mirror with hate and disgust. I have nothing left to hide. Therefore, there is nothing left to run from. I wake up every morning, and tell my self that I love 'me' and I make the best choices during that day that will lead to good health. Sure, I make mistakes and bad decisions still. But I never look back at the failures from yesterday, and I never put myself down for a bad choice that I make regarding food or exercise. I put yesterday aside, and focus on today. One day at a time, and one positive thought at a time. I am happy with 'me' each day that I wake up, and that gives me the peace that I need to continue on with my journey of good health. It's all about progress, not perfection! Just love yourself. Love and accept yourself enough to realize that you are worth being loved. You are worth being healthy, and you are worth having the life you dream of. If you haven't told yourself that you 'love' yourself yet, do it today! You'll finally have peace within yourself, and it really will make a world of difference in your day to day life.

The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

Even as he watched events unfold in Egypt and recalibrated US strategy
accordingly, President Barack Obama took out time to join a meeting his
NSA Tom Donilon was having with his Indian counterpart Shivshankar Menon
Friday morning.
"The President joined the meeting and reaffirmed his commitment to
building a true global, strategic partnership with India," said the White
House, adding, "(and) relayed his priorities for the coming year,
including advancing our bilateral economic relationship and making
progress on nuclear security efforts."
The two NSAs were meeting to review progress on the initiatives announced
by India and the US during Obama's November visit, a major element of it -
lifting of US export controls - came through this week.
It could not be ascertained if the two also discussed the US endorsement
of India's claim to a permanent seat at the US Security Council and
whether there is a need to speed up the process as part of the larger
reform of the world body.

Gabriel García Márquez Dead at 87
Posted: April 17, 2014 | Author: jhgardner | Filed under: Authors and Poets, Novels, Obituaries, Obituary | Tags: authors, Chronicle of a Death Foretold, Gabriel García Márquez, gabriel garcia marquez, latin american literature, literature, Love in the Time of Cholera, magical realism, obituary, one hundred years of solitude | Comments OffCelebrated Colombian author Gabriel García Márquez died today at the age of 87 after a recent hospitalization for multiple infections. His death comes two years after it was reported he was suffering from dementia.
"It is not true that people stop pursuing dreams because they grow old, they grow old because they stop pursuing dreams."
― Gabriel García Márquez
In his extroadinary lifetime Márquez received widespread acclaim for his novels and short stories, including One Hundred Years of Solitude, Love in the Time of Cholera and Chronicle of a Death Foretold. One Hundred Years in particular became incredibly popular, selling more than 50 million copies worldwide in over 25 languages. With his works Márquez stood as an ambassador for Latin American literature, and the father of magical realism.
When he won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1982, he dedicated his lecture to the spirit of Latin America, and revealed to the world its inextricable ties to his particular writing style:
We have had to ask but little of imagination, for our crucial problem has been a lack of conventional means to render our lives believable.
Márquez is survived by his wife Mercedes and his two sons. He died at home in Mexico City. His memoirs remain unfinished.

New Tennessee Williams Short Story Uncovered
Posted: March 25, 2014 | Author: jhgardner | Filed under: Authors and Poets | Tags: cat on a hot tin roof, crazy nights, strand magazine, streetcar named desire, tennessee williams | Comments OffWilliams' "Crazy Nights" is set to be published after spending 80 years hidden from the public.
Another day, another case of newly uncovered literature from a deceased author. Last year, we heard of recent discoveries of work from Charles Dickens, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, and F. Scott Fitzgerald. Today it was revealed that famous Southern playwright Tennessee Williams has new work for readers to enjoy.
The story is described by the Guardian as one "in which a college freshman recounts the details of a romance that reaches 'the ultimate degree of intimacy' before ending." It's believed that the story actually describes Williams' own relationship with his college girlfriend Anna Jean O'Donnell, who shares a name with the love interest of "Crazy Nights." If that's the case, the short could provide the puzzle piece missing from fans' insight into Williams' romantic life.
The Love Lives of Authors

Spend your Valentine's Day living vicariously through these writers and their passionate love lives. Because let's face it, you'd rather be draped in chocolate wrappers than a volatile amour, right? Just me?
Lord Byron
The 6th Baron Byron was a Romantic with a capital 'R,' but that doesn't mean he was particularly gentlemanly. His first partner in scandal, Lady Caroline Lamb, described him aptly when she professed he was "mad, bad, and dangerous to know." Indeed, she was just one of many public conquests that rocked British society, several of which produced children. Only one of these was legitimate, the Honorable Augusta Ada Byron, also known as the co-creator of the first computer, Ada Lovelace. Others, save for a daughter he had with Mary Shelley's sister, were never proven or recognized by Byron. In essence, he was a cad with a weakness for women, or so we can assume from his poem "Don Juan." I mean, not even his own half-sister was off-limits to him.
But still some come to his defense. Poet Katha Pollitt excused Byron's bad boy behavior with an interesting take on his contribution to feminism: "Byron's great insight, in an era where women were expected to be placid and insipid (not that they were!), was to see that women were much like men: They wanted sex and went after it eagerly, if secretly."

This Week in Poetic History
Posted: January 30, 2014 | Author: jhgardner | Filed under: Arts, Authors and Poets, history, Poetry | Tags: dante, edgar allan poe, poe, the divine comedy, the raven, william butler yeats, yeats | Comments OffJust for fun: we're celebrating the lives of three poets that were changed this week in history, many years ago, and examining the curious ways one turn of events can change a legacy. Here are three world-altering events from three years in poetic history…
"The Raven" Is Born
On this day in 1845, Edgar Allen Poe's "The Raven," one of the best-known poems in the English language, was first published. But it was no easy feat getting it into print. Poe first submitted the poem his friend and owner of Graham's Magazine George Rex Graham, who declined. He did, however, give Poe $15 out of what could best be described as pity. The poem was eventually bought by The American Review, for $9. Still, Poe was not yet to become the household name he would shortly be; the magazine printed it under the pseudonym "Quarles."
It was in the Evening Mirror that the poem first appeared with Poe's name beneath it. Thanks to this publication, Edgar Allen Poe and his "Raven" achieved Read the rest of this entry »
Zeroes and Ones and Your Odds of Writing a Best-Seller
Posted: January 15, 2014 | Author: jwheeler1967 | Filed under: Authors and Poets, Infographics, Language and linguistics, Novels, Writing | Tags: advice on writing, book publishing, e l james, fifty shades of grey, publishing perspectives | Comments OffDid you ever suspect the runaway best-seller Fifty Shades of Grey was written by robots? Well, somebody check E.L. James for vital signs because she might actually be an algorithm. Check this out:
Surely a human being would die of boredom before biting a lip in print forty-three times in one novel.
Actually, I'm skewing things a bit. But it is true that "[s]cientists have developed an algorithm which can analyse a book and predict with 84 per cent accuracy whether or not it will be a commercial success." (Source)
By downloading books in public domain from Project Gutenberg , scientists from Stony Brook University in New York developed a program called "statistical stylometry, which mathematically examines the use of words and grammar" to determine the popularity of a book, matching the programs results to the sales of works from the past. The experiment involved a wide range of literary styles, from science fiction, to novels, to poetry. Factors in determining sales and popularity included the "style" of writing as well as novelty in plot and character (they do acknowledge that "luck" plays a role as well.)
The program accurately predicted success, or failure, of those works an astonishing 84% of the time.
So what factors seemed to indicate, in a more concrete way, what you should do to increase your odds of becoming a best-selling writer?

Do you have a yearning to go to the bookstore or library but don't know what sounds good? Well, maybe this will help. Last night, this year's National Book Awards were announced. Here is the complete list of winners and finalists.
James McBride took the fiction prize for his novel The Good Lord Bird (Riverhead Books/Penguin Group USA):
Abolitionist John Brown calls her "Little Onion," but her real name is Henry. A slave in Kansas mistaken for a girl due to the sackcloth smock he was wearing when Brown shot his master, the light-skinned, curly-haired 12-year-old ends up living as a young woman, most often encamped with Brown's renegade band of freedom warriors as they traverse the country, raising arms and ammunition for their battle against slavery. Though they travel to Rochester, New York, to meet with Frederick Douglass and Canada to enlist the help of Harriet Tubman, Brown and his ragtag army fail to muster sufficient support for their mission to liberate African Americans, heading inexorably to the infamously bloody and pathetic raid on Harpers Ferry. Starred Review, Booklist –Carol Haggas
Finalists for the prize included:
Rachel Kushner, The Flamethrowers (Scribner/Simon & Schuster)
Jhumpa Lahiri, The Lowland (Alfred A. Knopf/Random House)
Thomas Pynchon, Bleeding Edge (The Penguin Press/Penguin Group USA)
George Saunders, Tenth of December (Random House)
The winner for non-fiction is George Packer for The Unwinding: An Inner History of the New America (Farrar, Straus and Giroux)
Joseph Brodsky's Reading List for Essential Conversations
Posted: November 14, 2013 | Author: jwheeler1967 | Filed under: Authors and Poets, Books, College Students, Teachers & Teaching | Tags: joseph brodsky, reading lists, w.h. auden | 1 CommentIn 1972, poet Joseph Brodsky angered government officials in his native Russia and was expelled from the country. With the help of fellow poet W.H. Auden, Brodsky settled in the United States, found a position at Yale and taught classes at Mount Holyoke as well. Later, he accepted professorships at both Cambridge and the University of Michigan. (Not bad for an autodidact!)
Of the many opinions Brodsky espoused to his students was that they could not carry on intelligent conversations unless they had done fundamental reading in what he considered influential texts. He passed out a list of these works to everyone in his classes.
Monica Partridge, a former student at Mount Holyoke recalls an early class meeting with Brodsky. On the Brodsky Reading Group blog, Partridge wrote that
"Shortly after the class began, he passed out a handwritten list of books that he said every person should have read in order to have a basic conversation. At the time I was thinking, 'Conversation about what?' I knew I'd never be able to have a conversation with him, because I never thought I'd ever get through the list. Now that I've had a little living, I understand what he was talking about. Intelligent conversation is good. In fact, maybe we all need a little more."
Here are the books or works on that list. I'm proud to say that unless the conversation turns to "Icelandic Sagas" I could pretty well hold my own at a Brodsky cocktail party…

Samsung reports profit of $7.3bn
Comment on this storySeoul - Samsung Electronics said on Tuesday its first-quarter net profit rose 5.9 percent from a year ago to 7.57 trillion won ($7.3 billion), while operating profit declined for a second straight quarter.
The South Korean electronics giant posted operating profit of 8.49 trillion won - down 3.3 percent from a year ago, following a 6.0 percent decline in the fourth quarter.
Sales for January to March inched up 1.53 percent to 53.7 trillion won, the company said in a statement.
The company - the world's top maker of smartphones and mobile phones in general - has been hit by slowing growth in smartphone sales in lucrative markets such as the United States and Europe.
The mobile business unit - which accounts for the lion's share of the overall sales - posted an operating profit of 6.43 trillion won - down 1.2 percent from the previous year.
Global demand for both smartphones and tablet computers "decreased" in the first quarter, it said. - Sapa-AFP
