Rogers tasked with cooling off first-place Red Sox
Doubront looks to push Boston's winning streak to five at Fenway Park
After an 11-game winning streak, the Blue Jays have had a tough time on their seven-game road trip through the American League East. They are 1-4 on their current skid and will look to return to their winning ways on Saturday afternoon.
Toronto will send Esmil Rogers to the mound and hope that he can rediscover the confidence that made him successful since joining the starting rotation in late May.
Rogers was the victim of three straight home runs vs. the Rays in his last start and admitted that it affected the way he pitched.
"I think I lost a little bit of my confidence out there, a little scared to throw my breaking pitch," Rogers said. "I don't know why something like that was coming out of my mind. I'll learn about that moment and say it's not going to happen again."
The right-hander faces a tough task vs. the Red Sox, who have won four straight and will send Felix Doubront to the mound.
Doubront was nearly flawless in eight scoreless innings against the Rays two starts ago, but he had trouble with his command last time out.
The left-hander only made it through five innings vs. the Tigers on 104 pitches. He allowed three runs (two earned), four hits, four walks and two strikeouts.
The four walks were the most Doubront has allowed since May 16.
Red Sox: Lester fine after leaving Thursday's game
Jon Lester has no ill effects from the right hip discomfort that forced him from Thursday's series opener vs. the Blue Jays.
Lester was removed after 94 pitches, two men on, none out and a five-run lead after throwing his final pitch to Emilio Bonifacio.
On Friday, Boston manager John Farrell described it as a normal day after a start for the left-hander.
"He feels improved," Farrell said. "We're considering [Friday] similar to any other Day 1 following his start. He does get the advantage of an extra day rest this next time through. We fully expect him to be on the mound against San Diego next week."
Lester said after the game he felt fine, in what doctors diagnosed as a jammed hip, and it's something that's recurring and under control.
"Based on all the maintenance work he currently does, and the exams, the strength exams, that he goes through, the range of motion is good," Farrell said. "There's nothing that is glaring. There are times when, if his stride direction is a little bit across his body, he'll pinch it at times. I can't say that there's the need for some kind of intervention to correct something that's damaged. That's not the case."
Blue Jays: Bautista struggling despite club success
After being named the Blue Jays' Player of the Month in May, June hasn't been as kind to Jose Bautista.
Despite the club enjoying its best month of the season, the slugger has slumped.
Bautista is batting just .186 with a .250 on-base percentage, and only one home run, albeit a game-winning shot vs. the Orioles last weekend.
"He's cooled off. He's been in a little rut, no question about it," Blue Jays manager John Gibbons said. "But the team's been playing better with him there. I think it's just a matter of time."
Last season, June was when the Blue Jays right fielder hit his stride, with 14 home runs and 30 RBIs. Even with an atypical month, Bautista has still clubbed 16 home runs and 44 RBIs this season.
Nearly halfway into the 2013 campaign, Gibbons is far from worried.
"Everybody's used to seeing all the home runs and all the doubles, driving in a lot of runs, but he's like anybody else," Gibbons said. "You're going to cool off. You're going to go through those stretches where you're struggling."
"Eventually he's going to catch fire again. And you know what? We'll be that much better off."
Worth noting
• Boston has won eight of its last nine home games and ranks second in the American League with a 27-15 home record in 2013. The Red Sox are 14-4 at Fenway Park since May 24, outscoring opponents 118-67 in those 18 games.
• The Blue Jays are 4-7 vs. the Red Sox this season, and have lost two straight against them.
• Doubront is winless in his career against Toronto at Fenway Park, posting a 6.75 ERA in five outings, two of them starts.

A state Senate committee has approved a Republican bill designed to make it easier to open a massive new iron mine near Lake Superior.
The bill passed the Senate mining committee on a 3-2 party line vote Wednesday. The Assembly mining committee passed the same bill on a 10-6 party line vote earlier in the day.
The votes send the measure on to the Legislature's finance committee, the last stop before the measure goes to the full Senate and Assembly.
Republicans insist the bill will help create hundreds if not thousands of jobs. Democrats counter the legislation is moving too quickly, relaxes environmental protections and won't create the jobs Republicans say it will.
Republicans made a number of revisions to the bill Wednesday that they say address critics' concerns.
Republican lawmakers and Gov. Scott Walker are hoping to act quickly on the measure, which they say will improve the state's regulatory process and lead to the creation of hundreds of jobs.

Manchester school district administration expands with three new hires
The salaries for the spokesperson and for the other new position, an executive director to oversee a plan to improve struggling schools, are set to exceed the upper limit posted for the jobs. The salary of the other new hire — the clerk of the school board — will be more than $10,000 higher than that of her predecessor.
The report indicated that the executive director would be paid $100,000 a year out of the district's general fund. The director would oversee the "Innovation Zone," a plan promoted by state and federal education officials to boost performance at seven city schools.
Livingston said the reason for raising the pay to six figures should be discussed in non-public session, which the board held later in the evening. After it reconvened, the board voted to approve the position at the pay of $100,000.
Creating a public relations liaison was one of Livingston's first proposals when she became the new superintendent. The board backed hiring the public relations person to serve as a "cheerleader" for the district and to communicate with the public and the press.
The personnel report indicated that the new spokeswoman would be paid $38,000.
Livingston's assistant, Tracy Mancuso, said a final version of the personnel report and information about the final votes taken at Monday's meeting would not be available until Wednesday.
The new spokesperson, who started work Tuesday, is Andrea Alley. According to her LinkedIn profile, Alley previously worked as the director of communications for the Southern New Hampshire Health System and for the New Hampshire Hospital Association.
"I didn't support this to begin with," Langton said of the spokesperson job. "I thought teachers were more important at this point in time."

Jays try to start second half strong vs. tough Price
On home mound, Rogers opposes streaking lefty after All-Star break
There's no denying the first half of the season did not go the way the Blue Jays had hoped it would.
After a major overhaul of the team's roster during the offseason, expectations were high. It seemed a 20-year playoff drought might finally come to an end.
However, the first half saw a lot more downs than ups for the Blue Jays, who enter Friday's second-half opener against the Rays with a 45-49 record.
"We know it's not going to be easy, because the division is so tough," shortstop Jose Reyes said. "But if we play consistent baseball and take it one game at a time, I think we'll be fine. We need to turn it around right away, because after the All-Star break, the season is going to go quick."
The Blue Jays leave the All-Star break 11 1/2 games behind the first-place Red Sox in the American League East and 8 1/2 behind the Rangers for the second Wild Card spot. Toronto is four games below .500, the franchise's worst record coming out of the break since 2004.
The Blue Jays will try to start turning around their season against the Rays, who have won 14 of their last 16 games and are coming off their best three-series homestand in franchise history.
The Rays will send David Price to the mound, making the Blue Jays' challenge even more difficult.
Like the Blue Jays, Price's season didn't begin the way the reigning AL Cy Young Award winner would have liked, as he spent more than a month on the disabled list. But since his return, the left-hander has looked like his dominant self.
"I'm not going to say that I lost [confidence] earlier in the season, but I feel good," Price said. "I feel I'm where I need to be right now, and the team is confident in everybody's abilities."
Even more impressive has been Price's efficiency. He's thrown two straight complete games, allowing only three earned runs while striking out 18 in 25 innings since his return.
"There's never been a time in my life where I've been that efficient," Price said. "I've always really considered myself a power pitcher that wants to get strikeouts, and to be able to go deep in games, you have to forget about strikeouts. I still know I can strike people out. I'll take more innings than strikeouts any day."
Price will oppose Esmil Rogers, whose development into a starter has been one of the better storylines out of Toronto this season.
Rogers has been the most consistent Blue Jays starter of late. The 27-year-old has a 3.27 ERA as a starter, with one tough start in which he allowed seven earned runs against the Tigers inflating that mark.
Rogers last took to the mound against Cleveland on July 10 and took a no-decision, despite pitching six innings of one-run ball, allowing only four hits and three walks with seven strikeouts.
"I think the key for today was the first-pitch strike," said Rogers. "I attacked the zone after the first two innings and I got a good outing after that."
Blue Jays: Reyes thinks Lawrie will have no problems at second
Reyes thinks Brett Lawrie's transition from third base to second base won't be too difficult for the athletic infielder.
"I think for him, the transition is not going to be too hard, because he used to play second base," Reyes said. "It's different when you go there for the first time and you don't know what's going on. I don't see a big deal."
Although Reyes admits the in-season transition may be a little tougher than if it had happened during Spring Training, Lawrie played plenty of second base in the Brewers' Minor League system.
"You don't have too much time to learn, because it's all about winning on the field," Reyes said. "It's not about a learning process. We're trying to do something, we're trying to win here."
Lawrie hasn't had a ton of opportunities to field the ball in his first two games at second base, and he has gone 1-for-8 at the plate.
Rays: Cobb throws batting practice
• Right-hander Alex Cobb, recovering from a concussion, threw batting practice session Thursday in Port Charlotte, Fla. It was Cobb's second time taking the mound, as he threw to hitters shortly before the Rays' first-half finale Sunday at Tropicana Field.
"There's no shyness of the ball coming back to me," said Cobb, who sustained the injury when he was hit in the head by a line drive June 15. "I'm happy with that."
There's no timetable for the 25-year-old right-hander's return, although he will need to go out on a rehab assignment before returning to the Rays' rotation.
"It's amazing how quickly you forget how to pitch, and once batters get in there, the intensity goes up a little bit," Cobb said Sunday. "Body parts start flying in different directions that you aren't used to and it takes a little while to get settled down. Toward the end of my session right there, it got a lot better. I was happy with it."
• Right-hander Brandon Gomes pitched a scoreless inning for the Rookie-level Gulf Coast League Rays on Wednesday, allowing no hits or walks while striking out one batter. Gomes has been out more than two months due to a right lat strain.
Worth noting
• Rays starters have delivered 15 consecutive quality starts, surpassing the previous club high of nine set in 2010.
• The Rays are 34-17 when playing outside the AL East, but only 20-24 against division rivals. They are 5-5 against the Blue Jays.
"This division, it's how this thing works," Rays manager Joe Maddon said. "It's like that. It's always going to be like that. We embrace it. We have to do better against the East. We are under .500 against the [AL] East right now.
"If we come out of the break, hold our own, get this thing rolling again in the right direction, we can make a lot of noise in the second half."
• The Blue Jays are 25-21 at Rogers Centre this season.
• In 18 games since coming off the disabled list, Reyes is batting .286 with three homers and seven RBIs.

KC out to continue run of success over White Sox
Royals have won 25 of past 40 meetings; Davis opposes Quintana
There was a time not that long ago when the White Sox owned the Royals.
The years were 2006-10, when the White Sox went 54-37 against Kansas City. In Chicago, that stretch is beginning to feel like a distant memory.
The tables turned the past two years and don't appear to be shifting in 2013. Kansas City has Chicago's number, winning 25 of the past 40 meetings between the clubs.
On Sunday at Kauffman Stadium, Royals right-hander Wade Davis looks to continue that success -- and personally rebound from two difficult outings -- against Chicago and left-hander Jose Quintana.
Davis had a rough first month as a Royal after coming over from Tampa Bay in one of the offseason's biggest deals. He's turned in two scoreless outings, but otherwise hasn't been able to find his groove.
Two starts ago he didn't make it out of the fourth, giving up seven runs (three earned) and walking four against the Tigers. Last time out, he surrendered eight runs on 12 hits and three walks in 4 2/3 innings against the Indians.
Davis' biggest issue, Royals manager Ned Yost said, has been location.
"In Detroit he was up. Made the adjustment against Cleveland," Yost said. "Got the ball down, down, down in the bottom of the zone. Just caught too much of the plate. That's baseball. It's all about adjustments every time you go out there."
Quintana looks to make an adjustment of his own Sunday after going only five innings in each of his past two starts. For all of Chicago's recent struggles against Kansas City, Quintana fared quite well against the Royals last season. The left-hander allowed two runs in seven innings in two of his three starts against the Royals in 2012.
White Sox: Peavy 'doubtful' for Monday
• Right-hander Jake Peavy, who has dealt with back spasms since Thursday, said before Saturday's game he was hopeful that he'd be able to start Monday.
"Obviously, there's a lot more treatment [to come], but I do feel better," said Peavy, who worked with a chiropractor before Saturday's game.
However, a pregame session of catch Saturday did not go well for the veteran hurler.
"Unless we have a really good day [Sunday] and things turn quick, I'm highly doubtful for Monday," Peavy said.
Manager Robin Ventura said it could be Chris Sale or someone else making Monday's start. That decision was still being discussed late Saturday evening.
• Closer Addison Reed is 10-for-10 in save situations this season and has converted 16 straight dating back to last season.
• All four of Tyler Flowers' home runs have given the White Sox the lead.
Royals: Holland on a roll
• Closer Greg Holland has struck out 14 of the 23 batters he's retired in his last 7 1/3 innings.
• Kansas City has 10 come-from-behind victories this season.
• Right-hander Jeremy Guthrie's shutout on Saturday was his 17th straight start without a loss, setting a Royals record.
Worth noting
• Friday's postponed game is scheduled to be made up at 1:10 p.m. CT on Monday.
• It's not just the Royals who have Chicago's number. The White Sox are 2-7 in their last nine games against division opponents.
• The White Sox have lost six of their last seven and 12 of their last 16 at Kauffman Stadium.
• Davis is 3-1 with a 1.84 ERA in seven appearances (four starts) against the White Sox.

CANTON St. Lawrence County officials will urge the Ogdensburg Bridge and Port Authority to rally around use of the 10-acre parcel that is home to its administrative building as the site for a proposed casino.
The OBPA board will consider the idea when it meets Feb. 13. It is one of the proposals advanced by OBPA consultant Fisher Associates, of Rochester, for the 10.3-acre property.
We thought it would be ideal, Legislator Frederick S. Morrill, D-DeKalb, told members of the countys Economic Enhancement Committee Monday. Mr. Morrill is also the OBPAs deputy executive director.
Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo has proposed three non-Indian casinos for upstate but has not identified specific sites. The Buffalo News reported Sunday that Gov. Cuomo wants a casino in downtown Niagara Falls.
That could break the impasse between the state and the Senecas over whether an exclusivity clause in the tribes gaming compact was violated, resulting in more than $500 million in withheld payments to the state, or it could introduce competition.
The St. Regis Mohawk Tribe, which operates the Akwesasne Mohawk Casino in Hogansburg, also has withheld revenue-sharing funds from the state, claiming the exclusivity of its compact, which covers seven counties, is violated by a unlicensed casino operated by Mohawks of the Warrior Society near Plattsburgh.
St. Lawrence is eager for a casino if the state wants to locate one in the county, said Vernon D. Sam Burns, D-Ogdensburg, chairman of the committee which also is working with the county Chamber of Commerce and the Industrial Development Agency on the idea.
I think we made the right move in coming out early, he said. Now wed like to get one location we can all get behind and support.
The OBPA parcel is developed, is state-owned, sits at the base of the Ogdensburg-Prescott International Bridge, has a view of the St. Lawrence River, is at the center of three bridges that lead to Canada, is within 300 miles of over 11 million people and saddles both the Thousand Islands and the Adirondacks.
It also would be the third casino within a 100-mile path along the St. Lawrence, including the Thousand Islands Charity Casino in Gananoque and the Akwesasne Mohawk Casino. There are also casinos in Hull and Gatineau, Quebec, across the river from Ottawa.
Having other casinos in the vicinity of Ogdensburg should not be a deterrent, said Mark J. Bellardini, a committee member.
People jump from casino to casino, he said.
One of the main criteria in siting a casino is whether it can draw people, IDA Executive Director Patrick J. Kelly said.
Where better than a border location? he said.
Property at the St. Lawrence Psychiatric Center was also suggested, but bypassed because of multiple issues that could take time to resolve. Committee members unanimously endorsed the OBPA site.
The OBPA could move its office to one of its vacant buildings, Mr. Morrill said.
This land is really an under-used public asset, he said.

I Tink, Derefore I Am
That's the sort of knitter I am. I would rather un-knit 455 stitches than rip back in a hurry and have to deal with sliding everything back onto the needle without twisting. I may grow braver as time goes on, but for the present I'm more tortoise and less hare.
I remain hesitant regarding claims that knitting is "the new yoga" (unlike yoga, it has done nothing for my midsection), but I will admit that it is drawing out of me reserves of patience and calm I never knew I had.
Mystery in Maine
Meanwhile, over at my sister's house it seems that tinking is also on the agenda. She also seems to have a fiber-obsessed poltergeist. That's what it looks like to me, anyhow. Do read it yourself and draw your own conclusions.

have you ever read Knitting for Anarchists by Anna Zilboorg? You will no longer fear twisted stitches after you read it. If they are on the needle the wrong way, you just knit them off differently and that straightens them up. It is really quite cool (but i am a geek and get excited about that kind of thing). This advice coming from someone who used to tink long stretches for the exact same reason.
- goblinbox said...
When you say tink, do you mean frog?
- goblinbox said...
P.S. I want that Wild Thing.
- Franklin said...
Mush dear, the Wild Thing was a present from my friend Amy back in college and has been a treasured companion ever since. So no can do.
The way I learned it, one "tinks" by un-knitting a piece one stitch at a time, hence the term (t-i-n-k is k-n-i-t spelled backwards). One frogs by removing the needles and ripping the stitches back.
That's how I learned it, anyhow.
Xmasberry, that's a very festive handle. Also, I thought I'd at least seen the titles of most of the knitting books out there but definitely missed Knitting for Anarchists. Thank you for the tip, because I'm going to go check it out. - 11:27 AM

The hat is looking good. I love the color. What are you planning on knitting next?
I love reading your blog. - 11:54 AM
- Joe said...
Franklin, remind me when you're out here for the Rhinebeck festival to butcher some knitting for you so you can see how much easier it is to fix a few twisted stitches, than it is to 'tink' thousands.
You'll realize how little there is to fear. - 2:27 PM
- goblinbox said...
Well, not that Wild Thing then. Just a Wild Thing of similar plush ferociousness.
I have a Where The Wild Things Are poster in my bedroom. True story.
And thank you! I'd never heard of tinking before. (It sounds hideous. I'll tink no more than ten stitches; any more than that and I just yank that needle *right* out of the work.) - 2:44 PM
- Sister Sue said...
Ooooh...the hat looks very exciting and wonderful! Knit and tink away (but try mostly to knit, ok?). Question: how come I'm still listed under "they knit not"? Do I actually have to make something other than a swatch to get moved?
- Sean said...
I like the hat...but don't worry too much about ripping and putting the stitch on the wrong way. Just make sure to always go into the "front" of the stitch...even if it's behind the needle instead of in front of it. Does this make sense?
- birdfarm said...
Sister Sue, I had wondered that myself. I'd considered the possibility that it's as much for symmetry as any other reason (lists of fewer than three items look funny, doncha know). Franklin may have to find another non-knitter to take your spot.
At least I hope that's what he does, rather than just kicking the "knit nots" off his blogroll entirely... - 6:51 PM
- Bonnie said...
Where the Wild Things Are!!!??!!?!? Maurice Sendak is the best!

Another tip when frogging -- use a smaller needle to pick up the stitches. That way you don't accidentally pull some out.
Nice hat. - 8:12 AM

THat hat looks great and thanks for the etymology (or is that bugs?) on the word tink. i tend to frog, or as my friend rebecca says, just rip it out! i heard about knitting for anarchists at boyznite but i can't find it anywhere! i actually met and struck up a brief friendship with Maurice Sendak when I was working reception at HarperCollins children's books. Interesting guy.

Franklin - Franklin - Franklin,
You need to use a "lifeline" to keep the entire thing from going to pieces. I always have a darning needle handy & DENTAL FLOSS to establish a lifeline. First, pick a place just below where you fu_ked up, & insert the dental floss in each stich as if you are sewing a tiny hem or whatever. Then after you have all stiches in one round "saved" you can then FROG as fast as lightening. Your lifeline will prevent you from losing any of the beautiful work you wish to keep & as a bonus, all your stiches will be oriented correctly. Just pick 'em up on a smaller needle for ease of insertion (lol) & begin as usual. If you "seem" to be losing one, just pull both ends of the floss upward & yeah, your stitch will appear ready to be saved. If this is still confusing, send me an e/mail & we'll get together on the phone & I can walk you thru it. Bye----hope to hear from you---IRV - 9:02 AM
- Jon said...
I prefer not to rip the needle out, if I can help it. I invariably have stitches ladder down and such. I would rather tink back a couple of rows. Nothing like tinking lace tho. Ugh.
You may want to learn that lifeline technique if you seriously like lace knitting. - 9:23 AM
- sep said...
here's a trick I used to do when I was still wary of frogging... rip the needle out, frog as many rows as necessary (just pull that yarn, it feels good!) and then put the needle back on anywhich way you want, pay no mind to how your stitches are seated. THEN, tink back that one row and you'll have all your stitches seated properly. That way you can rip and tink and you only have to tink one row. :)
and, lifelines are a must for lace-knitting (maybe life too?)
sep, the frogger extraordinaire! - 10:58 AM
- birdfarm said...
SEP (aka Loopy) is definitely in the running for the Frog Championship of the World. I think she's frogged at least three times as much as she's knit, and since she's knit a lot, that's a lot of frogging. She's the fearless-est frogger I've ever seen. Another reason I doubt I could ever knit... I don't have that kind of equanimity or whatever it takes. :-)
- Joyce said...
Can you believe I recently heard that needlepoint is the new knitting?

I wonder what type of apps is he creating with this extremely limited drawing library.
Phoronix: Wayland Gets A Simple Drawing Library
A simple drawing library has been created for Wayland in the process of porting a simple terminal and dynamic menu system from X11 to Wayland...
I wonder what type of apps is he creating with this extremely limited drawing library.
Software that sucks less. I wonder if this library will help in making DWM for wayland, having a good tiling compositor would be awesome.
But it if doesn't suck while the rest does, why don't we have it on gnome/kde desktops by default, conspiracy?
Stuff from this site is for people that know C and love to hack and tune their desktops, definitely not for someone that just wants a complete environment. Personally, i prefer slightly more bloated but convenient stuff, like i3 and rxvt-unicode. Dmenu was irreplacable until i replaced it with interrobang.

MedNet.com Confronts 'Click-Through' Competition (audio version)
Allegra Young
Publication Date:Apr 20, 2007Discipline:MarketingSource:HBS Brief Cases |
Product number:2066-AU3-ENG Length:30min |
English Audio MP3
Also Available in:
English Audio MP3 | $ 1.00
When students have the English-language PDF of this Brief Case in a coursepack, they will also have the option to purchase an audio version.
In January 2007, "MedNet.com" is a leading website that provides science-based health information free of charge to online visitors. MedNet communicates with traditional web journalism, interactive software, and social media tools such as blogs, video reports and virtual reality tours. The site operates conservatively within the government-regulated health information market. MedNet's business model relies on advertising sales, primarily to pharmaceutical companies. MedNet competes for advertising dollars with large search engines, category specific sites, and clinical trial sites. In 2007, large search engines charge for "results," or "click throughs." Other sites, such as online newspapers, charge for impressions. Advertising campaigns depend on numerous variables (an efficient audience size, audience frame of mind, willingness to complete a transaction, etc.) In the face of fierce advertising competition, MedNet is forced to defend key elements of its business model vis-a-vis a large search engine. However, in defending the advertising value MedNet delivers, MedNet executives may be building the case for why niche sites may be a better investment for the advertiser's budget.
learning objective:
To illustrate the Internet industry's structure, especially the marketing implications related to channel power and influence (large search engines and niche websites). By comparing impression-based with click-through advertising, to help students understand the variables involved in consumer-based, advertising business models. Students must identify the best metrics to support various business models and calculate the return on investment (ROI) for an advertising campaign.

Advertising; Advertising strategy; Business models; Business to business; Consumer marketing; Financial ratios; Internet marketing; Search engines

Even if it is saying it is CDDL - do not believe it until Oracle confirms it.
Only Truly Open source and CDDL code there is was Opensolaris OS/Net is Illumos project
- one can use and contribute to (and it is all legal - see Openindiana distribution).
Also it is not true that Oracle closed development of all Solaris11.
Os/Net consolidation (kernel and base OS - SunOS) they stopped releasing (That is where Illumos stepped up)
but rest of userland/software and consolidations is under open/free software licenses (GPL and others)
and that code IS open by Oracle after Solaris 11 release.
OpenIndiana is now Illumos (Open free OS/Net) + Packages of userland apps from Oracle + Openindiana own packages (+SFE package repository for newer programs)
So it is not true Oracle did not release anything in open after S11 release.
Just in present state this "leaked" release is unusable, unless Oracle say it is truly CDDL.

"My greatest thought in living is Heathcliff. If all else perished, and he remained, I should still continue to be... Nelly, I am Heathcliff! He's always, always in my mind: not as a pleasure... but as my own being." Wuthering Heights is the only novel of Emily Bronte, who died a year after its publication, at the age of thirty. A brooding Yorkshire tale of a love that is stronger than death, it is also a fierce vision of metaphysical passion, in which heaven and hell, nature and society, are powerfully juxtaposed. Unique, mystical, with a timeless appeal, it has become a classic of English literature.
Emily Jane Bronte was the most solitary member of a unique, tightly-knit, English provincial family. Born in 1818, she shared the parsonage of the town of Haworth, Yorkshire, with her older sister, Charlotte, her brother, Branwell, her younger sister, Anne, and her father, The Reverend Patrick Bronte. All five were poets and writers; all but Branwell would publish at least one book.
Fantasy was the Bronte childrens one relief from the rigors of religion and the bleakness of life in an impoverished region. They invented a series of imaginary kingdoms and constructed a whole library of journals, stories, poems, and plays around their inhabitants. Emilys special province was a kingdom she called Gondal, whose romantic heroes and exiles owed much to the poems of Byron.
Brief stays at several boarding schools were the sum of her experiences outside Haworth until 1842, when she entered a school in Brussels with her sister Charlotte. After a year of study and teaching there, they felt qualified to announce the opening of a school in their own home, but could not attract a single pupil.
In 1845 Charlotte Bronte came across a manuscript volume of her sisters poems. She knew at once, she later wrote, that they were not at all like poetry women generally write
they had a peculiar musicwild, melancholy, and elevating. At her sisters urging, Emilys poems, along with Annes and Charlottes, were published pseudonymously in 1846. An almost complete silence greeted this volume, but the three sisters, buoyed by the fact of publication, immediately began to write novels. Emilys effort was Wuthering Heights; appearing in 1847 it was treated at first as a lesser work by Charlotte, whose Jane Eyre had already been published to great acclaim. Emily Brontes name did not emerge from behind her pseudonym of Ellis Bell until the second edition of her novel appeared in 1850.
In the meantime, tragedy had struck the Bronte family. In September of 1848 Branwell had succumbed to a life of dissipation. By December, after a brief illness, Emily too was dead; her sister Anne would die the next year. Wuthering Heights, Emilys only novel, was just beginning to be understood as the wild and singular work of genius that it is. Stronger than a man, wrote Charlotte, Simpler than a child, her nature stood alone.
