Born in Zambia, Swaziland in 1997 Kenneth Irons has always had a passion for music since a young age. Still being so young; hard work, determination and the drive to work on his craft as an artist is one thing Keno takes very seriously. Going through a tragic event having lost his father; Keno has let this motivate him to be the best he can be in every aspect of life. Although still growing as an artist, Keno aims to send a message to his audience that no matter where life takes you, as long as you put your mind to something you ultimately have a passion for, anything is possible. With one successful mix-tape, serving as his debut project; "First Coming", Keno shows just how staying driven towards your goals can make everything fall in line. Still attending school daily, Keno has come a long way and knows he has a long way to go; working on his craft is something he doesn't take lightly. Having already had a sold out show with him as the headliner and more projects currently in the works, he hopes to be a role model figure that gives light to his generation letting them know just where your dreams can take you.

The Blood Type Diet Archives Volume 9
Posted By: JeriDate: Thursday, 18 February 1999, at 6:13 a.m.
In Response To: Dangers of Soy (Kristin(A))
If soy has thyroid-suppressing effects on A's, would taking bladderwrack help A's to improve thyroid function and/or counteract any negative effects from soy? Bladderwrack is supposed to help thyroid for O's. Will it help A's in this predicament?
PS: There is a web site somewhere on the "Dangers of soy," and it sounds really convincing when you read it. But when I put it against all the anecdotal accounts of people who improve in health from eating soy and against the stats of lower cancer rates in women who eat soy regularly, I decided that the page must not be accurate.

Summary:To keep legal costs under control in commercial disputes, corporations frequently rely upon binding arbitration as a reputedly faster and less expensive alternative to traditional litigation. Typically, two major factors impacting those potential cost savings are restrictions on pre-hearing discovery in arbitration and restrictions on challenges to arbitration awards in post-hearing proceedings. When enforced, these restrictions offer a significantly streamlined process, finality and a shorter time to ultimate resolution than may exist in the litigation process. Another desirable aspect of arbitration is the parties' ability to select arbitrators with subject matter expertise relevant to the dispute, which is a quality that the decisionmakers in litigation—jury and/or judge—may not offer.
About NAMWOLF: The National Association of Minority & Women Owned Law Firms (NAMWOLF), founded in 2001, is a nonprofit trade association comprised of minority and women-owned law firms and other interested parties throughout the United States. Many corporations and public entities interested in diversifying their outside law firm ranks have focused almost exclusively on the utilization of minority and female attorneys at majority firms. Yet the available data strongly suggests that these efforts have not resulted in greater diversity in the legal profession. It is NAMWOLF's view that the most effective way for corporations to increase diversity in the legal profession is to increase their retention of minority and women-owned law firms.

A security regime to liberate your organization
Go on the offensive, and guarantee trust
Bull's approach to security is built on the conviction that security adds value, provided that it is extremely agile, business-focused, and aligned with corporate strategy. The results are a great deal more than you would get from paying the price of a multi-risk insurance policy, as three kinds of advantages are on offer: greater productivity, more flexibility, and competitive differentiation. So, achieving ROI for security is possible, after all…
In the early years of this decade, the Enron affair and numerous calls for financial transparency and data protection have led to regulations being tightened considerably. As set out in numerous edicts (SOX, Basel 2, Solvency 2, HIPAA, LCEN...), these stipulations all included strict rules about IT security: marking the point where is has become part of internal control and audit requirements. The current financial crisis and the various scandals unfolding are symptomatic of risk-based, inadequate controls, and should see even more emphasis being placed on these regulations in the years to come.
A paradoxical challenge: combining openness and security
The need to align information systems with corporate strategy today highlights security as a key issue. The restrictions and obligations dictated by the various edicts aimed at regulating security in specific business areas reflect its vital importance for the years to come. Because, with more and more business happening on line, exchanges within the organization itself or its immediate environment never have been so critical. The risks are numerous: theft or loss of confidential data, fraud, vandalism, blackmail or refusal of service, economic intelligence... This challenge is more and more complex, with the increasing openness towards partners, customers and citizens.
Media are constantly reminding us that nobody is immune from possible security incidents or malicious acts. The consequences may be disastrous for any organization that becomes a victim of a security breach, sometimes involving significant financial losses. As things stand at the moment, any organization evolving and progressing in a broader ecosystem will have to embrace a paradoxical imperative: the obligation to combine openness and control.
Security: a protection or a prison?
Faced with this paradoxical challenge, organizations have a lot of work to do. Those who are most worried are dedicating between 6% and 9% of their IT budgets to security, with dedicated teams and whole business functions devoted to the issue. Taking the sums involved into account, the question is no longer simply one of how much to invest, but of the degree of profitability achieved.
Today, nevertheless, we are forced to acknowledge that the current system is reaching its natural limits. Because, quite simply, the kind of protection required to run an open and distributed system poses a real problem for IT Departments. For every new threat that surfaces, a new solution has to be found. Every failure in the system needs a new patch. The result is a very costly 'haystack' of security solutions that are often irregularly built and badly integrated, stacked up over the years, and resulting in a multitude of obstacles and protections that result in new constraints on users, and seriously affect the organization's agility.
This challenge is made more difficult because information systems are so ubiquitous and computing is a commodity: people are increasingly using their own personal tools (Smartphones, netbooks, Facebook...) in a variety of contexts, not just within the enterprise itself and its 'security bubble'. Drowning in the constraints imposed by inappropriate security, users will not hesitate to by-pass the official solutions by opening up new chinks in the armor. Given this trend, there is now an urgent need to re-focus security on the user, and to measure the effectiveness of solutions by their capacity to liberate the user in their work. Protection must not become a prison.
An emerging paradigm
It's easy to see security as a fortress or a permanent defense against attacks and threats. Bu this rather narrow vision of security has, for a long time, resulted in an emphasis on technology-oriented solutions.
Today we need a totally new approach. One that is geared to creating value, and centered on people and business processes. Security that is not only defensive, but agile and proactive in an open world.
Towards security for an open world
This new-generation security must have three key qualities:
Moving towards security that creates value
Security is at the crossroads where three different paths meet: those of information technology, the enterprise's business strategy, and user requirements. It will only be able to offer the service that everyone needs if it can successfully reconcile the technology with the specific business activity and usage it is required to control.
As a pioneer in security, Bull has adopted this kind of approach for a number of years now.
As a designer of high added-value security solutions in key technologies, Bull's approach is designed to align security with business challenges and human issues: most notably through Identity and Access Management (with Bull Evidian), mobility (with globull), encryption (with Bull TrustWay), transaction management (with Bull Crypt2Pay and Bull MetaPKI) and data security (with Bull StoreWay). An expertise that is highlighted by industry analysts, who have regularly recognized Bulls offerings with numerous awards, particularly those received by Evidian, acknowledged as a European leader in Identity and Access Management (IAM).
In its capacity as a consultant, integrator and then outsourcer, the Group supports major organizations in implementing tailored security solutions, adapted to their core business activities and processes. Major achievements include the security systems for the French government's on-line VAT and tax filing systems (TeleTVA and TeleIR), Chorus (the French public sector financial management system), the virtual design platform for the Falcon 7X built by Dassault Aviation, and the payments systems equipment installed in 95% of French banks.

The Lexicon of Sustainability: Food Waste
In the U.S., nearly 40% of the food we grow, distribute, put on store shelves then ultimately buy as consumers never gets eaten. But cooperative associations of organic food producers like Marin Organic based in Point Reyes Station are striving to cut down on food waste. They organize volunteer-driven events for individuals to glean, or gather up leftover crops from local farms, that can be donated to food banks, school lunch programs and other non-profits. Learn more about gleaning and other efforts to combat food waste in this new video from the Lexicon of Sustainability project and filmmaker Douglas Gayeton.

Forty years ago, enterprising beauty entrepreneur Estée Lauder bristled at the notion of putting the name of the fashion designer Emanuel Ungaro — or any name other than her own — on one of her company's fragrance bottles.
That intractable position immediately unraveled her namesake company's licensing arrangement with Ungaro to develop his first fragrance. Recounting the tale, Estée Lauder's daughter in- law, Evelyn—the firm's senior corporate vice president—says with a laugh, "That was our first foray into designer fragrances and it was an abortion."
As Evelyn Lauder reminds, in the Sixties, the designer fragrance category—carved out in part by Bill Blass and his licensee Revlon—was a novel idea. It has since grown into a $1.93 billion piece of the $2.88 billion prestige fragrance market in the U.S., according to The NDP Group. After a deluge of celebrity scents over the last few seasons, designers are once again asserting their primacy at department store counters. This fall's launch lineup includes Emporio Armani Diamonds, Daisy Marc Jacobs, Very Michael Kors, Vivara by Emilio Pucci, The One by Dolce & Gabbana, Prada Infusion d'Iris, Midnight Poison by Christian Dior, DKNY Delicious Night, Donatella Versace's Versace and Gucci by Gucci, to name a few.
But ideas for designers scents don't simply march off the runways. Behind each one is a team of designers in their own right. It's this team of beauty marketers and perfumers who assists fashion designers — masters at sketching and sewing their artistic point of view into clothing — on how to bottle their aesthetic and personality into a fragrance.
By all accounts, creating a designer fragrance is an emotional process and sparks can fly when attempting to blend creativity and commercial considerations. But when the team of artistic collaborators get it right, fragrance offers a way for designers to broaden their audience beyond merely the deep-pocketed. It also extends the promise of brand longevity.
"Designers take fragrance seriously because it's something that may be around longer than themselves," says fragrance consultant Ann Gottlieb, who has worked on scents for Calvin Klein, Marc Jacobs and Oscar de la Renta.

In multiplayer, sticking a grenade on your buddy and watching him flail around for his last few seconds alive is one of those moments that make Halo so sublime.

OREGON — Sheriff's from Southern Oregon told lawmakers something needs to be done about timber payments. Josephine, Curry, Douglas, and Polk County sheriff's testified that their patrol forces are basically non-existent.
Inmates are being routinely released and prosecutors are stretched too thin. They told a Salem panel that the lives of the officers they do have are in danger because there is no back up.
State lawmakers say they are looking for a way to help the counties which have lost so much money from federal timber payments.

It was great to hear the sound of music fill the autumn air at the 13th annual band showcase. New Hanover High band director Tim McCoy said: " It's an excellent opportunity for people to see our bands around the county with the fine bands that we have. We have 4 different kinds of shows, 4 excellent high schools. You'll see some great stuff tonight."
Laney band director Bob Pearson said the showcase is just that, a showcase. "It's not a competition. The students put in a lot of hard work. We start at the beginning of August and go hard for 12 weeks leading up to tonight." Ashley band director Rob Parker added " It's everbody's big night. It's Ashley's big night, Hoggard's, Laney's and New Hanover's big night. It's all of us getting together to have a fun time."
The football stands at Hoggard were full on the home side Tuesday night. They were packed with parents and middle school band students who plan to be high school band members next year. Hoggard's Rod Reed added: "At football games we often perform our shows. This is a night to show the parents without football being around and we can showcase each one of our groups individually on the field."
Video of the performance will be online shortly.

Wow. This stuff is amazing. Ever since I've added it to my nighttime routine (after toning and before moisturizer), I wake up the next morning with luminous, almost "plumped up" skin. It has caused no reactions, it doesn't sting ... in fact, it feels very nice going on, like water. I am very impressed with Lumene and will definitely repurchase this product!
This was my first Lumene purchase and I LOVE it. I have very dry skin and use two pumps underneath my moisturizer. Others have mentioned the scent, but it hasn't bothered my extremely fair, very sensitive skin. It is natural scent of cloudberries (yum...just thinking of them!LOL), not citrus. I have spent $100 on a department store "serum" that didn't have the luminous, hydrating effect of this! Probably not for oily skin (wouldn't know...skin is very dry), or for people who are allergic/sensitive to cloudberries.
It reminds me of "Bye-Lines" by Arden, which I can't find anywhere anymore!

This product is a delight to use AND watch! :D The mixture of oil and gel-like fluid gives just the right amount of moisture and nurture for my dry and flaky skin. I don't usually need to follow with a moisturizer, except in the coldest winter climate. I wouldn't, however, recommend this for normal or oilier skin types. The only con is that the consistency tends to run between the fingers before you manage to spread it onto your face... plus that the container leaks just below the pump.
This is one of only two drugstore facial moisturizers that I will buy -- the other being Lumene's Premium Beauty Eye Cream -- because I believe it is as high-quality as the organic moisturizers I love. It contains sea buckthorn, cloudberry, cranberry, squalane, and avocado, which means my skin is fed tons of omega fatty acids. These drops are very thick and moist, which means I don't need much to cover my whole face and neck. It's like a nourishing drink for my skin. I can definitely see great results after a couple of weeks: My skin is so hydrated, firm, smooth, and radiant. The only thing I would change is the packaging -- I would put the pump in a plastic bottle rather than glass. I would buy again.
2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
This is a very nice lightweight moisturizer. I alternate using this with Lumene's retinol night treatment (I actually prefer RoC's retinol night treatment but that is another story!). Also, I like to tap a little around the eye area when I need a little extra moisture and it is also fantastic on the lips!
I got this to complement the cream since my skin was dried out & irritated from overdoing other treatments. This is an oil/liquid combination that separates in the bottle (very colorful red & yellow) - you shake it up & it becomes an emulsion. It seems to moisturize well on its own & it's surprisingly not oily or greasy. When used under the cream, the effect of the active ingredients seems to intensify, resulting in wonderfully soft, smooth skin. My only grip is the pump bottle (I know they're supposedly more sanitary but I have yet to come across one that works properly!) - if you're not careful it tends to shoot out the stuff, so be sure to pump it right into the plam of your hand.
More reviews by marlatenenbaum
I really like this moisturizer. It is a transluscent and oil-based and comes in a pump bottle. I love the packaging. The smell is strong citrus, but smells nice, and I do not have sensitive skin so I don't mind. I do recall it feeling slightly tingly the first couple nights I used it, but no redness at all. It makes my skin really glow! I always look in the mirror after I put it on because my skin looks so plump and young and fresh- even my lips! It makes my face feel lovely, especially good after exfoliating. I prefer to use it at night, because I get oily during the day. When wake up my skin feels nice and taken care of.
I admit that this product seems kinda weird. It's oil in a bottle that you have to shake well before each use but it feels so good! You only need 1 pump to cover your whole face. It moisturizes pretty good when used alone but I only use this at night and follow up with my night cream (by Dove). It's a little too rich for day use especially if you're gonna follow up with your daytime spf moisturizer. This stuff cures dry skin in an instant! My skin was dry and flaking from using a very harsh BP cream and this helped bring my face back to normal by the next morning. I do have combination/acne prone skin and this hasn't caused any breakouts.
UPDATE: Still like this product though now I use my night cream alone at night. But this is my emergency rescue product for when my skin decides to go crazy and get dry. All it takes is one night of use and my skin is normal again. I will always have a bottle on hand.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
You shake up this oily stuff and then dispense strongly scented drops on your skin. Smells strongly of citrus and stung around my eyes. It did not absorb well and was very greasy. Did very little to improve my skin. Not suitable for sensitive skin.
More reviews by Shakeitdontbreakit
This product is wonderful. It is one of the only things that has helped my dry, tight skin. It is light enough to wear under your regular moisturizer and emollient enough to work alone. Not for those with oily skin, but if you have very dry skin and have a hard time finding an effective product give this a shot.
This claims to "provide softer and more vital skin in an instant" and it does. It also claims to fight against free radicals, be rich in omega fatty acids and antioxidant vitamins. All I know is, it is a one-of-a-kind skin saver!

Photos and story by Rob Casey
Six miles of paddling through tidal rapids in 40-degree December temps with horizontal rain and driving wind isn't what most people would consider to be much fun. But for the past seven years, 100-plus paddlers of various human-powered watercraft plus volunteers, sponsors and spectators show up to race in the Deception Pass Dash in Washington State.
Unique by design, racers begin with a mass-water start just before slack tide. With only a few minutes before the ebb current begins they must sprint 2.5 miles of open water to circumnavigate Deception Island then paddle to the deep canyon bottleneck of Deception Pass before the current gets too strong to paddle against. Kelp beds, standing waves, funneled winds, eddylines, whirlpools and boils are some of the hazards along the way. Once around Strawberry Island, the easterly island in the route, paddlers get a free ride down current with the ebb current back through the Pass to again round Deception Island. The final one-mile leg to the finish line includes crossing strong current, eddylines and tide rips to the finish line in protected Bowman Bay.
Paddlers this year fought a 15-knot headwind that funneled through the Pass, slowing their progress towards the bridge. SUPer Sean Thomas who placed first in the 12-6 division said, "It seemed it took an hour to get in (the Pass) and five minutes to get out." Prior to entering the Pass, Sean got stuck in a kelp bed. He states, "I came to a dead stop, it felt like a creature from the deep grabbed my board."
Paddling a surfski, Epic Kayaks owner Greg Barton flew into the finish line solo with a time of 49 minutes. Not far behind Greg were rowers Jeff and Theresa Knakal with 55:33.5, then in an OC-2, Michael Hammer and Colin Smith, with 58:04.6, and Heather Nelson paddling a HPK at 58:59.7. Shorts-clad Norm Hann of Squamish, B.C. won the SUP division in 1:11:00.8.
After the race, participants met with race sponsors such as Valley Sea Kayaks, Seattle Sports, SEA-LECT, Outer Escape/Contour and Stellar Kayaks. Raffle donations provided the Washington Water Trails Associationwith over $900 thanks to Sea Kayaker, Canoe & Kayak, Mountaineers Books and Contour, among others.
Next race – The New Year's Challenge in Seattle, an approx 6.5 mile all-watercraft event.

In 2006, Dan was living in a high-rise condo in Washington DC. He was single, with no children and no pets. I was living in a detached house across the Potomac in Arlington, Virginia. I was divorced. I had three grown children and a cat.
We got married, and Dan moved into my house, but that was only a small change, with bigger ones — much, much bigger — to come. One year after we married, my daughter married and then, in 2009, my grandson Jonah was born. Simon followed in 2011. The plan is for another child to follow. My older son married in 2009, and they are due to have their first child this month. My younger son also plans to marry and have children.
What all this means is, in the last seven years, the terrain of Dan's life changed in a way comparable to that of the land inhabited by dinosaurs when the Ice Age hit. For a while, he wasn't quite sure he would survive. Fortunately for me and for him and for my children and grandchildren, he adjusted better than the dinosaurs did.
Dan learned very quickly what my priorities were, and it came the first time we were visiting friends in Florida. We were seated at a restaurant for lunch, and had just enough time to look over the menu and decide what we were going to have, when my cell phone rang. It was my daughter, living then in London, with her baby. Because of the time difference and because of the baby's schedule, it wasn't always easy to connect. Now, she wanted to Skype, because it was 5 PM there and Jonah was in the bath. I looked at Dan and said, "I think I have to go." "Say no more," he answered, and he stood up.
I now can see how tough it can be to flip into step-fatherhood and grandfatherhood without ever having been a father. When my kids are around, Dan sometimes goes off for a short privacy break. The activity and noise level are more than he's used to. At the dinner table, when one or more of the kids is in town and the conversation turns to video games, indie bands, and fantasy football, I notice that Dan gets quiet. He refused to make baby talk with either Jonah or Simon, and he became annoyed when he used to hear me doing so on Skype. I joke that he's marking time until Jonah and Simon can enjoy a glass of wine with him and discuss world affairs.
But the truth is that Dan keeps a photo of Jonah and Simon as his screen saver, and when Jonah would jump into his lap and now Simon does the same, he melts. The other truth is, Dan thinks my own kids are almost as amazing as I do. I think that might be a little bit understandable, as he never had to experience the boys wrestling under the dining room table while a meal was in progress. And he never had to watch my daughter taunting her older brother into a screaming rage.
The top inanimate love of Dan's life has always been his sailboat. And naming his sailboat has always been a huge big deal with him. This year, he bought a new boat. He named it JoSimon.
The bottom line is that slowly, very slowly, Dan is taking on a role he never thought would be his. And nobody is more surprised (or, I suspect, delighted) than he is. Which delights this baby boomer just as much!

Mallard's Grantham return: Work under way to welcome record-breaker
Preparations are under way for the return of the world's fastest ever steam locomotive to the place where it set the record.
Mallard broke the world speed record for steam in 1938 at 126mph (203km/h) near Grantham, in Lincolnshire.
The locomotive will return on 7-8 September as part of the free Festival of Speed.
Work is taking place at a disused railway siding, which will be used to accommodate the engine.
'Great British invention'THE MALLARD
- Mallard ran on the East Coast Mainline from the 1930s to the 1960s and on the day of the record was driven by the late Joe Duddington, of Doncaster, South Yorkshire.
- The A4 Class was designed by Sir Nigel Gresley, who was also behind the Flying Scotsman. A total of 35 locomotives were built in Doncaster between 1935 and 1938.
- Mallard was thought to have been chosen for the record-breaking run because it was one of the newest locomotives. However, soon after it nudged the top speed it broke down and had to go back to the workshop to have a bearing replaced.
- Mallard still has a golden plaque on its side that reads: "On July 3 1938 this locomotive attained a world speed record for steam traction of 126 miles per hour."
The festival, which marks 75 years since Mallard set the record at Stoke Bank - just south of Grantham, will also feature streamlined racing cars from the 1930s and celebrate the town's engineering heritage.
Project manager Neil Lindley, who is responsible for preparing the site, said: "My grandfather was lucky enough to be a fireman on Mallard.
"I think that era compared to what I do in this day and age is worlds apart, but the thing I love is that the history is still there - and still going strong in the industry."
Visitors will also be able to view a Deltic locomotive - Mallard's high speed diesel successor.
Locomotive enthusiast Henry Cleary, who has been involved in organising the celebrations, said Mallard was a "great British invention".
He said: "This is the fastest steam locomotive in the world.
"Of course, there was a lot of international competition for that title - and we will be telling that story too."
He said speakers from Berlin would be at the festival talking about German efforts to break the record.
The two-day event has been organised by a partnership which includes South Kesteven District Council and Lincolnshire County Council.

About Me If you followed IPL2 on RCB website, I am sure you would remember "Observer" - the guy who was bringing you a statistical analysis of RCB's chances of making it to Semi Finals! That's ME ... and I was SPOT ON ... RCB made it to the finals and my "strategic statistical insights and analytics" was turning out to be bewilderingly accurate. Wouldn't RCB need me now and for the next IPL? Because I have some proven techniques that can really help the management of Team RCB!
I am an ardent cricket fan ... my early life recollections about my cricket craze date back to collecting cricket pics from newspapers and magazines and making a scrap book out of it. In fact I would lead my brother, cousins and friendsto libraries like City Cental Library in Jayanagar and Indian Institute of World Culture(each of us below 12 years and carryng a blade!) to cut pics from exotic cricket magazines - The Cricketer of UK was fabulous. Once I was caught cutting a pic by the librarian who was sweet enough to merely give us a lesson in moral science that ended this adventure!! I was a hero in my school because I had a great scrap book! Looking back, I wonder how I got that kind of courage!! My other notorious achievements include jaywalking into the wedding reception of B S Chandrasekhar when I was 13 - smartly dressed, I piled on along with a Chandra's Syndicate Bank invitees! I did manage to play cricket for my school but realized that I may end up neither here nor there since I was not even "club class cricketer". When I entered college, I became more serious about studies and went on to do Engineering in RVCE Bangalore and MBA from IIM, Calcutta. Worked in several MNCs and now I am an independent technology consultant. Cricket has been fascinating, in all its forms all these years. And is geting more exciting in its new avatars! Let's all enjoy it - playing, watching, writing about it,analyzing, talking about it, and living it! I am the most fanatic RCB fan because... Firstly, it belongs to Vijay Mallya - the pride of Karnataka in industry and sport, an icon amongst entrepreneurs and businessmen; the most flambuoyant amongst all entrepreneurs/businessmen in India. He has a little more dare and dash than all others.
The most admirable quality in Dr Mallya is that to him, his passion comes first and results second. His belief that passion determines the intensity of our actions which in turn determines the results is second to none. And I love and admire his demonstration of pride in and patriotism for the country - Sword of Tipu Sultan, Gandhi's relics, Force India to name a few A man of eclectic taste when it comes to display of his penchant for class, he proved this to the hilt in roping Katrina Kaif and Deepika Padukone as the brand ambassadors. Secondly, it represents Brand RC - my favorite whisky - always there to give me the extra high. And is part of the KIngisher family - my favorite beer - anywhere in the world! Thirdly, my Affinity with Kumble - the team is led by Kumble, a role model for generations to come - and I am happy to share a few things with him, though I've never met him, nor spoken to him. Kumble and I went to the same school and same college - though at different periods. (National High School, National College and RVCE). Later in life, when Kumble vacated his flat in Sovereign Park, Basavanagudi, I was the next occupant! There were times when my wife and I would go through his fan mail!! Some fans are insane, I must say and I admire their perseverance and patience in sending long, serialized letters with continuation serial number, etc On one occassion, Kumble's dad dropped in at our place to collect his telephone bill - my wife missed a heartbeat Finally, When it comes to cricket, RCB is Bangalore and Bangalore is RCB. As a diehard Bangalorean, I can feel RCB air surrounding me wherever I am. During IPL2, I was a prolific writer on the Royal Challengers website - in the Fan Club posts - with the nickname "Observer". My statistical analysis on trends and predictions of RCB is well documented and I could see the excitement after each day in the RCB fans looking forward to my analysis. Interestingly, my trend forecasting used to be spot on, day after day, match after match. I intend to take this to the next level for IPL 3. Unfortunately, when RCB website was revamped, it looks like I've lost my piece of history. I only pray RCB would have archived the contents of previous website. Protecting Rahul Dravid: Under the nick "Observer", I have commented extensively on www.cricketnext.com - my comments were well appreciated by readers. My comments reached its zenith around the time Vengsarkar 'dumped' Dravid - my comments were so strong, scathing and acerbic that if Dravid had read those comments, the nick "Observer" will be permanently etched in his memory. I stopped commenting on www.cricketnext.com after Dravid lost his place in the ODI team - with Kumble having already retired from ODIs, the Namma Bengaluru flavor was gone. Passion requires an emotional binding - a binding for your geography, for the people, for the socio-cultural flavor of the entity we adore, an ability to think intensely - all of these is what I have highlighted in this profile - and I wil surely bring to the table as a Chief Blogger Towards the end of IPL2, I set up firstname.lastname@example.com - a Yahoo group to simplify communication amongst RCB fans. However, I have not aggressively marketed t - and plan to do it when IPL3 fever starts its ascent. Strategy Map for RCB - Airtel Champions LeagueMy preferred line up : Uthappa, Manish Pandey,Rahul Dravid, Mark Boucher,Virat Kohli,Ross Taylor,Anil Kumble,Vinay Kumar, Praveen Kumar, Van der Merwe,Dale Steyn, Rajesh Bishnoi
why do I prefer this line up : They all have fire in the belly, passion running through their veins, diamond studded hardness, the will to win, the temperament to persevere and stay put till the last ball is bowled. They all believe "A match is not lost till it is won, and not won till it is lost"
My opening match strategy: FIRST AND FOREMOST, DISCARD THE FOLLOWING THEORIES:
1. The side that wins the toss has an advantage. 2. The side that bats first has an advantage 3. We missed so and so ... etc. The reservoir is full 4. Good captain wins matches; Bad captains lose matches. 5. 1 key RUN OUT hurt us badly BECAUSE you are all TOP CLASS cricketers, you should adjust and adapt to the playing conditions - weather, dew, pitch, scorecard situation etc etc. And each of you are captains in your own right - you should know what to give to "your present captain" as a player. Running between wickets requires 2 minds to sync, which is not possible 100% of the time. Factor 1 key run out that badly hurts in your planning. A 2nd run out is "bad coordination and teamwork" That said, strategies do matter and the captain should communicate the strategy clearly - and I am assuming the strategy would have been deliberated by the team management and a consensus arrived. For example: 1. Batting first, have a target in mind; achieve 40% of the target in the first 10 overs. Encourage each player to play his natural game. Never send a big hitter to open - reserve the fireworks for middle and lower order. 2. Batting second, have an open mind on the batting order. If chasing a tall score, challenge the openers to have a partnership of 25% of the target. Alternate the aggressive and less aggressive batsmen in the order. If several wickets fall early, let the tail wag in the middle. 7 Keys To Success In Every Match: 1. Every player should bring tons and tons of optimism and confidence throughout the match 2. Tremendous camaraderie amongst the players 3. One spectacular batting performance 4. One spectacular bowling performance 5. 2 spectacular catches 6. 1 masterstroke by captain Kumble batting order 7. 1 masterstroke by captain Kumble in bowling changes My best T20 match:

Up to 40% of Michigan's eastern Thumb alfalfa fields have winterkilled, estimate Michigan State University Extension agents.
While many parts of the Midwest this year escaped the winterkill that plagued alfalfa fields in 2013, Michigan wasn't as lucky. Nebraska alfalfa growers may find some winter damage, although to a lesser extent, and Manitoba growers are also being urged to assess stands.
Up to 40% of alfalfa fields in Michigan's eastern Thumb region are estimated as winterkilled, according to a recent Michigan State University (MSU) Extension press release. About 20-25% of fields in other parts of the state also did not survive the winter, say Phil Kaatz and Fred Springborn, MSU Extension agents.
After experiencing a slow 2013 growing season, growers are concerned whether forage supplies in the state will hold up through next winter's feeding season. Kaatz and Springborn caution producers to carefully plan their forage needs for the year and use alternative forages to make up for low alfalfa supplies.
The timing of one year's final fall cutting can affect the health of an alfalfa stand the next spring. Some stands, with a fourth cutting taken after Sept. 1, had 75-80% loss. Fields cut only three times showed only around 10% loss, the specialists say.
Nebraska growers should also assess alfalfa stand damage after recent frosts and freezes. Bruce Anderson, University of Nebraska Extension forage specialist, suggests how to do that.
"Don't just look for frozen or wilting leaves. You need to determine if the growing point was killed," Anderson says. If alfalfa's growing point – located inside a cluster of curled leaves near the top of the main stem – has died, new growth must come from new shoots at the crown or from lower branches. Cutting a field will spur regrowth, but that rarely pays, he adds.
"If the value of the hay that comes from harvesting current growth will pay for the harvest costs, it often is worth taking that harvest. I haven't seen many damaged fields with that much growth, so most of you should just wait for plants to come back on their own," Anderson says.
The Manitoba Forage & Grassland Association asked its growers to check alfalfa stand health in its May 16 newsletter article, "Evaluate Alfalfa For Winter Injury." "We have just gone thru what is reported to have been the coldest winter in a long time, and if your alfalfa fields didn't maintain a good snow cover, there is the possibility that it may have experienced some winter damage," writes John McGregor, MFGA Extension support.
In Michigan, growers with damaged fields can spot-seed cool-season grasses such as Italian ryegrass. The sooner the better to get the best yield, Kaatz and Springborn say. Don't re-seed alfalfa into a damaged alfalfa field, they warn. It can cause alfalfa autotoxicity that prevents new seedlings from establishing.
A video showing how to assess an alfalfa stand is available from Dan Undersander, University of Wisconsin Extension forage specialist.

Jack is finally at an age where he is actively creating memories. He's also at an age where he can grasp the concept of what holidays are or at least begin anticipating them as they're explained. This is one of the reasons Mommy and Daddy have been doing our best to make sure this is an amazing holiday season for Little Man. Not only is the first Christmas that he might be able to remember when he's older, thus potentially setting the stage for his warm fuzzy feelings about Christmas, but this is also the last holiday season that our little family will consist of just Mommy, Daddy, and Jack. If all goes according to plan, Jack will be greeting his new baby sister on December 29th, a day in which our family dynamic will change forever.
So, not only are Mommy and Daddy doing everything in our power to make this a memorable and awesome holiday because we just love Christmas, but also because we want to make sure Jack has an amazing Christmas as well. One of the ways we've been doing this is thinking about the great parts of our own childhood holidays and seeing what we can do to incorporate those events into Jack's Christmas experience. For Daddy, one of the best Christmas memories he has includes the picking out of a real Christmas tree. Unfortunately, Mommy and Daddy haven't had a real Christmas trees together and it's been since we were kids that we've participated in a Christmas in which a live Christmas tree was even present. So, Daddy had the great idea that we would take Jack to pick out and buy a Christmas tree.
This week, picking out a Christmas tree was our big holiday event for the week. Rather than going to a tree farm, which we thought Jack might be a little to young for yet, we opted for our neighborhood Home Depot. This worked on several levels. First, it's just aroundt he corner from our house. This is great because if Jack's mood started to take a turn for the worse, we were only a few minutes from his comfort zone, second, if the tree happened to fall off of the top of the car, Daddy wouldn't have far to walk it. (Daddy likes to be prepared for such events). Also, Home Depot carries not only trees, but a few other items we needed to pick up. It seemed like the perfect location for our tree purchase.
When we arrived, Little Man was ecstatic! Since his signing vocabulary has been growing leaps and bounds, he was thrilled to be in a store with so many things that he recognized and could comment on. He was also pretty stoked about there being dogs in the store. For some odd reason there were quite a few people visiting Home Depot with their pets, which Jack was more than happy to comment on. As we passed a dog, a door, a toilet, a faucet, anything that he knew the sign for, Jack would squeal with delight and begin to sign what the object was. It was so thrilling for Mommy and Daddy to see.
By the time we reached the trees, Jack was practically in a signing frenzy. Then, he saw the trees, which, because they weren't in the ground, growing straight and tall, he though they all had "owies" and were "broken". So, he began to convey these thoughts with his signs. . .
After smelling and touching the various trees, eventually Jack picked out a tree that he liked. He pointed, Daddy inspected, and so went the picking of our first, live, family Christmas tree.
Soon, it was time for Daddy to strap the selected, Jack approved tree, to the top of the car. Jack thought the entire event was thrilling. Mommy and Daddy had a great time because any time Little Man is happy, we're happy. . . On a side note, it was Mommy's job on the way home to watch the shadow of the tree while we drove to make sure it wasn't falling off the car. Fortunately, despite a little shifting, Daddy didn't have to walk the tree home.
Once we arrived home, Mommy turned on the Christmas music while Daddy hauled in the tree and ornaments. With help from Little Man, soon we had a completely decorated tree in time for us to head out to look at Christmas lights as a family.
Driving around while looking at Christmas lights has always been one of our favorite activities. In fact, it's one of those things that Mommy and Daddy looked forward to doing with Jack for as long as there has been even the idea of Jack. However, this was the first year that Jack actually seemed to see and register the lights. In years past Mommy and Daddy have often wondered if he understood what we were doing or if he found the activity enjoyable. This year, there's no question, Jack loves looking at Christmas lights.
As we drove around, listening to Christmas favorites, many of which played and Mommy and Daddy's wedding and wedding reception, Jack could hardly contain himself. Every time he saw a light display, whether it be elaborate or few strands strung atop a commercial building, he would yell with excitement and point until Mommy or Daddy commented on the lights and acknowledged that, yes, we too, saw these fun lights. This made for a fun, albeit very loud Christmas adventure. To top off the amazing evening, we stopped off at Dairy Queen for some dessert. Jack had his very first, very own soft serve ice cream and Mommy and Daddy had their favorite Blizzards, Oreo for Daddy, and Snickers for Mommy. It probably goes without saying that Jack ate his with great zest and zeal, but then again, a picture is worth a thousand words. . .
By the time Little Man was finished with his ice cream, the treat was all over his face, hands, and shirt. Most of that was a result of him planting himself face first into his cup in an attempt to get as much ice cream as possible as quickly as possible. Thankfully we were headed home to deposit Jack into a nice, warm, and cleansing bath.
It's moments like these that give Mommy and Daddy new reasons for loving the holidays and being a Mommy and Daddy.
Quick Jack Facts
- Ask anyone, especially Daddy, and you'll hear that Mommy loves chocolate and I love cookies, although, with the exception of when I'm pregnant, this love comes in moderation. However, other than snickerdoodles, chocolate chip cookies are one of my favorite cookies. So, it's no surprise that one of my favorite activities is baking cookies with Jack. He has also inherited my love of chocolate and he certainly loves baking/cooking, and just helping Mommy in general in the kitchen. So, when Mommy has a craving, Jack needs a distraction, or it just sounds like a good idea, Mommy will bust out a quick muffin or cookie mix for us to make together. This week, we made some chocolate chip cookies. The funny thing was that despite Jack's enthusiasm for the task and obvious anticipation he showed as he waited for the cookies to emerge from the oven, he didn't care to eat any of the cookies. Granted, he gave it the old college try, but apparently chocolate chip cookies are just not for him. If I weren't there for his birth, I might have to actually question if he were mine. . .

The Royal Family's Christmas is set to be a real cracker this year, as the family settle down to reflect on a truly stunning year that has included Duchess Kate and Prince William's baby news, the Olympics success and Queen Elizabeth's stunning Diamond Jubilee year.
It's not yet know if pregnant Kate will be spending the festivities with her new family, following her hospitalisation for acute morning sickness and subsequent recovery, but we're sure she'll be keeping her fingers crossed she's up to it. After all, the royals certainly know how to mark December 25!
The festivities all kick off on Christmas Eve, when the family gather at Sandringham Estate in the Norfolk countryside, where they excitedly count down the hours to the big day.
"The Queen arrives on Christmas Eve. She takes a passenger train to King's Lynn, first class," Daily Express royal correspondent Camilla Tominey explains.
"There is protocol about when the royals arrive. The least senior royal arrives first and, of course, the Queen and Prince Philip last.
"The Queen keeps a close eye on arrangements and she even adds the last finishing touches to he tree in the drawing room. She is quite hands-on!"
The Queen, Duke of Edinburgh and other Royals including Prince Charles and Camilla then have a giggle as they swap novelty gifts with one another – and the more naff they are, the better.
Favourites in the past are said to have included a leather toilet seat, given to Charles from Princess Anne, and novelty socks are a big hit too.
The family then enjoy cocktails followed by dinner, during which champagne and claret are also served, before the royals retire to bed early in anticipation of the big day ahead.
The next morning, everyone arises first thing to a stocking filled with festive pressies. They then sit down to a full English breakfast, before heading to St Mary Magdalene Church, on the Sandringham Estate, where they attend a traditional Christmas morning service.
After that, the royals enjoy a slap-up festive lunch – with a turkey from the Norfolk countryside taking pride of place on the table. And after that it's time to watch the Queen's annual message to the public, of course!
"They all gather in the saloon to watch," the royal correspondent explained. "Then in the afternoon they play games, things like charades. Everyone stays up late, no one can go to bed before the Queen."
In the evening, the royals will then sit down and enjoy a few drinks together and reflect on the year.
"It will be a wonderful day and a period of great reflection for the family because the year has been so momentous," she added.
As mentioned earlier, it is not yet known if Duchess Kate will be spending the festive period with her husband Prince William and the rest of the royals, because of her sensitive condition at the moment.
So what can she expect if she spends the day with her own family, the Middletons, as is expected at the moment?
Well, Carole, Michael, Pippa and James are massive fans of Christmas and all go in for it in a big day, with the family running their own party business and knowing everything there is about making a day special. Pippa recently let slip that her dad Michael even loves dressing up up December 25 – with recent costumes including a sumo wrestler's!
It has also been suggested that Michael and Carole Middleton may have been invited to join the royals at the estate either on Christmas or Boxing Day. And with Prince Harry absent from the festivities this year due to his deployment to Afghanistan, there will be room at Sandringham, which is the smallest of the royal residences.
Sounds like whatever she plans to do this year, Duchess Kate's Christmas will be a hoot!

Wylie Preparatory Academy is celebrating 10 years of developing Christian character with a dedication ceremony at its new campus, 4110 Skyview Court, at 2 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 23.
Refreshments and campus tours will be available until 4 p.m.
"Since Wylie Prep began in 2001, we have held classes at a local church," said Lynda Dye, the school's marketing director. "With the blessing of continued growth for the last several years, this space had become inadequate. It became clear that if they were going to continue to grow, they would need a campus of their own. In the summer of 2009, Wylie Prep purchased its own property. Our seventh- through 12th graders began meeting on this new campus in the spring of 2010. This fall, the entire school was unified on the new campus."
Wylie Prep uses an educational model which blends professional instruction of a classroom teacher and the one-on-one instruction and/or guidance of each student's parent. The school's programming include low student/teacher ratios, hands-on learning, fostering a strong work ethic for students and effective curriculum, local school operation and management.
"Wylie Prep partners with families to provide a Christian-based academic and social experience, developing servant leaders with strong Christian character and the skills needed to answer God's call," Dye said.

Check it out Y'all!
Jeremy Lyons will be in the studio, on the Blues Breakdown with members of the band Morphine, Feb. 5th!
Baritone Sax man Dana Culley and drummer Jerome Duepree will join Jeremy on Guitar.
We're talking unrehearsed and unplugged, live on the air! Just like back in the day.
It is the morning of the second full day of the IBC here in Memphis and what a ride. Wed night the International showcase was fantastic, a concert with all of the acts from outside of the US. 12 countries are represented from 5 continents. I was most impressed with the duo from Germany. Last night the first round of the semi-finals.
This Tuesday on the Kitchen Sink, the special guest will be my old running buddy, Sun Ra and Kool and the Gang trumpeter, head honcho of the Cosmic Krewe, and Tone Scientist Extraordinaire
He'll be talking about his new Cosmic Krewe record, the latest news from planet Philadelphia and Saturn, and other assorted tidbits.
Take a listen and remember, Space is the Place.
In honor of the 101st anniversary of the birth of one Mr. Danny Barker - musician, author, teacher, writer, griot, and just general MAN of New Orleans music, the five part Danny Barker Radio Series will air on 90.7 FM New Orleans, WWOZ, www.wwoz.org. This will happen on the Kitchen Sink show 1/12/10 from 10 PM to Midnight CST.
Story by Sharon Armstrong.
Fair fa' your honest, sonsie face?…Yeah, you right!
The satirical Krewe du Vieux Carre parade will take place on Saturday, January 30, 2010, rolling through the Marigny and French Quarter. The King of KdV for 2010 will be hisself the music legend Dr. John, with Priestess Miriam Chamani reigning as Queen.
In typical KdV fashion this years theme "All Fired Up" is in reference to the August 4 fire that caused damage to the KdV den.
A listener has asked me to post a picture of Bob French in his new shirt. Here it is:
Tune in on the first Sunday of 2010 for Your Cousin Dimitri's annual show of blues, folk and country music suitable for kids. Leadbelly, Woody Guthrie, Elvis, Dylan... all singing for children, or music that could fool you into thinking it's good for the young uns.
As a French Quarter resident, tourists stopped making an impression years ago. However, as I walked through today's Sugar Bowl crowd, I got surprisingly nostalgic about the University of Hawaii fans from the 2007 Sugar Bowl. Sentimental even. Like missing an old friend.
The Tone Scientists of WWOZ will present The music of Sun Ra tonight on the Kitchen Sink to celebrate the New Year. 10 PM - midnight. We'll travel the Spaceways, orbit the heliocentric worlds, visit outer planes of there, and school you on the other worlds they haven't told you of. All hail the master of the Mythocracy, Sun Ra! and his Jet Set Myth Science Omniverse Arkestra.

I bought a TEAC CR-H258i from Richer Sounds - £149.95 including the ipod dock which I thought was great value. It was easy enough to set up and all the functions worked fine though reading a 16gb memory took ages - about 5 mins - and the remote could have been better. The problem that I had was that there is a transformer hum when the unit is on - admittedly, it can't be heard most of the time as it is drowned by music, speech, etc., but, in quiet passages it is quite noticeable. I took it back and had to make an 80 mile round trip to another branch to get another and, annoyingly, the replacement is exactly the same - is this to be expected? I bought the unit to replace an older model - the CR-L600 - which I still have and there is absolutely no noise from this unit. Am I right to be unhappy - should I take the new unit back yet again?

#2 RE: TEAC CR-H258i Transformer Hum
I would try it on a different ring circuit first to rule out it's not the mains (move it upstairs or downstairs depending where it's sited).
I had the same problem with an amp I had and tried it on all three circuits in the house to rule this out. Think you'd be pretty unlucky to get two duff ones on the trot, though.

Same with my Denon dcd720ae cd player,hums when switched on and heard in quiet room .Brought it to the dealer, they had lower class dcd520ae.Same humming and now i'm still doubting it should be this way. With such a problem is very hard to prove it faulty or not. Still searching :wall:

NiGen BioTech's™ "The HCG Solution" Flying Off The Shelf At Walmart After Dr. Oz Show
NEW YORK CITY, Feb. 7, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Dr. Oz is always at the forefront when it comes to research breakthroughs, so it's no surprise that when he featured HCG diets on his show yesterday, HCG diet products once again became an overnight topic of conversation. Dr. Oz told his audience that while he'd done a feature on HCG diets last year, he'd decided to revisit the topic after some brand new research became available which showed people on an HCG diet lost an average of 13 pounds, 11 of which was fat.
"We were very excited to hear that Dr. Oz had agreed to do another segment on HCG diets, because thousands upon thousands of people swear by them," says Chantelle Daines, spokesperson for NiGen BioTech™, makers of The HCG Solution™, which has been selling like hotcakes at Walmart, Rite Aid, local GNC retailers, and online at www.MyHCGSolution.com (don't try Walgreens or CVS… they don't have it). "Dr. Oz made it very clear that HCG diets are among the most controversial in the industry, yet two of the guest doctors on his show offer them as weight-loss options to their patients, and members of the audience spoke about the success they've had using them."
HCG diets typically involve prescription HCG injections that are designed to help decrease a person's appetite and help them stick to a very low calorie diet (VLCD)… patients are allowed only 500 calories per day. And some claim remarkable results, losing as much as 100 pounds in only a short time. However, Dr. Oz spoke out against the dangers of these VLCDs, cautioning his audience members against following any weight-loss program of less than 1200 calories per day without being under the care of a professional. He also pointed out numerous times that he was talking about the injectable form of HCG. Many companies offer liquid drops that they claim contain minute amounts of the intact HCG hormone, such as products labeled as "homeopathics," and Dr. Oz clearly stated that these HCG drops don't work.

First of all I want to talk about Vitamic C benefits. Vitamin C is an antioxidant that slows the rate of free-radical damage - free radicals are unstable molecules that damage collagen and cause skin dryness, fine lines and wrinkles. Vitamin C may also reduce sunburn caused by exposure to ultraviolet B radiation and prevent the consequences of long-term sun exposure, which can lead to skin cancer! Wow.
I've been having a lot of closed comedones and pimples lately.. I think that summer is the cause. It's super hot here so this weather seems to aggravate my skin condition. Not to mention that I started getting these nasty pimples last summer.. Before my skin was pretty fine -_-'' Okay, stop with nagging lol.
So basically I can't say that Vitamic C serum helps me a lot. When I just started using it I was really amazed because comedones on my chin seemed to dissapear. But not, after using it for ~3 weeks I still see them clearly. Also I was expecting blackheads on my nose to dissapear, but this haven't happened too.
The only one thing that this product did for my skin is helping scars to dissapear. I got a really big pimple on my cheek and it left a scar. But because of this serum it's dissapearing really fast. Ah! I also have a scar on my forehead for half a year or even more.. Annoying red spot that doesn't go away ._. But since I started using this serum I noticed that it seems to dissapear slowly. I really hope that it will dissapear completely when I finish using this bottle!
1) You shouldn't use it if you want to apply a benzoyl peroxide later on. They will neutralize each other and won't work properly and will leave an orangey spot. When I just get this serum I didn't know this so I just applied both products and next morning woke up with a kinda orange spot. Thanks god it went away next day.
2) When you apply it on your face for the first time it may sting and be quite drying. But personally I haven't experienced this.

Nimrod Nation, on DVD
Nimrod Nation is an 8-part documentary series that originally aired on Sundance. In the small rural town of Watersmeet, Michigan, the two most popular things on the minds and lips of the townies are basketball and hunting. The town is pretty much obsessed with the school basketball team called the Nimrods. George Peterson is the team coach, the high school principal, and the father of one of the players. The series is an intimate look at small town life, the residents, and high school basketball. I don't know how I randomly found this DVD, but I'm glad I did, as it is original and heartfelt. Check out the DVD, or have a peek at clips from various episodes here.
For those - like me - who'd need to look it up, Random House says a nimrod is an especially skilled or devoted hunter.
Even more interesting is American Heritage's guess as to how it came to informally mean a fool or blunderer: "probably from the phrase 'poor little nimrod,' used by the cartoon character Bugs Bunny to mock the hapless hunter Elmer Fudd." One assumes Bugs was referring to Fudd's devotion, and not his skill.


text: I find this article superficial and incomplete to the point of presenting a false picture of the tea party. For example, it leaves out the fact that the tea party is highly conservative, anti-liberal and anti-Democratic Party. It has many conservative and Republican agendas and no Democratic ones. It is not simply motivated against government spending but rather against Democratic party and presidential initiatives which it criticizes on the grounds of spending among others.

More copies of this ISBNA Year with Hafiz: Daily Contemplationsby Hafiz
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments: Acclaimed translator Dick Davis breathes new life into the timeless works of three masters of 14th-century Persian literature Together, Hafez, a giant of world literature; Jahan Malek Khatun, an eloquent princess; and Obayd-e Zakani, a dissolute satirist, represent one of the most remarkable literary flowerings of any era. All three lived in the famed city of Shiraz, a provincial capital of south-central Iran, and all three drew support from arts-loving rulers during a time better known for its violence than its creative brilliance. Here Dick Davis, an award-winning poet widely considered our finest translator of Persian poetry" (The Times Literary Supplement), presents a diverse selection of some of the best poems by these world-renowned authors and shows us the spiritual and secular aspects of love, in varieties embracing every aspect of the human heart. A Choice Magazine Outstanding Academic Title for 2013 For more than sixty-five years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world. With more than 1,500 titles, Penguin Classics represents a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines. Readers trust the series to provide authoritative texts enhanced by introductions and notes by distinguished scholars and contemporary authors, as well as up-to-date translations by award-winning translators. Synopsis:The first full-length volume of Rumi's cherished verse by bestselling poet Daniel Ladinsky Renowned for his poignant renderings of Hafiz's mystical texts, Daniel Ladinsky captures the beauty, intimacy, and musicality of another of Islam's most beloved poets and spiritual thinkers. In collaboration here with Nancy Owen Barton, and with learned insight and a delicate touch, they explore the nuances of desire—that universal emotion—in verse inspired by Rumi's love and admiration for his companion and spiritual teacher, Shams-e Tabriz. These poems thoughtfully capture the compelling wisdom of one of Islam's most revered artistic and religious voices and one of the most widely read poets in the English language. Synopsis:Daniel Ladinsky's stunning interpretations of 365 soul-nurturing poems—one for each day of the year—by treasured Persian lyric poet Hafiz The poems of Hafiz are masterpieces of sacred poetry that nurture the heart, soul, and mind. With learned insight and a delicate hand, Daniel Ladinsky explores the many emotions addressed in these verses. His renderings, presented here in 365 poignant poems—including a section based on the translations of Hafiz by Ralph Waldo Emerson—capture the compelling wisdom of one of the most revered Sufi poets. Intimate and often spiritual, these poems are beautifully sensuous, playful, wacky, and profound, and provide guidance for everyday life, as well as deep wisdom to savor through a lifetime. About the AuthorDaniel Ladinsky has published three previous translations of Hafiz's poems, The Gift, The Subject Tonight Is Love, and I Heard God Laughing, as well as a collection of translations of poems by twelve mystics and saints, Love Poems From God. He lives in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.
