"The Motion of Light" is named for the Kelly Writers House celebration of Samuel R. Delany's performative poetics, held on April 11, 2014, and archived at PennSound. This Jacket2 feature collects work by all those who were a part of the Delany celebration, of an event that celebrated the writer who, as Tracie Morris notes in her introduction, "is a constellation that continues to be fixed, yet revolves, for me and for so many lovers of poetry … a maker of many worlds."
For a poetry that yields such immediate and immense pleasure, the work of Joseph Donahue remains hard to characterize. As the author of seven volumes — including the forthcoming Red Flash on a Black Field and Dark Church, the third installment of his ongoing Terra Lucida serial project — Joseph Donahue has spent almost three decades crafting a sensibility that straddles the often-reductive binaries of literary discourse.
Although Kenneth Irby, a distinguished innovative poet, has recently become better known, he deserves to be much better known than he presently is. In 2009 he published a massive book of poems, The Intent On: Collected Poems, 1962–2006, which for the first time provided easy access to the full body of his work and ample evidence of how productive he has been over the years. Before this book, I think, few people realized how prolific he has been.
As we all know, poets can be difficult.
The vision seeks the man — Zora Neale Hurston
I first encountered John Taggart's work while living in Boulder, Colorado, circa 1990.[1] A now long-vanished indie bookstore, the Aion, which had a remarkably rich poetry collection (oh, for the era of real booksellers!), actually called me to say they had a few books I might like.

Princess Thyra of Denmark (Thyra [ˈtʃuːrə] Amelia Caroline Charlotte Anne; Danish: Thyra Amalia Caroline Charlotte Anna) 29 September 1853 – 26 February 1933) was the youngest daughter of Christian IX of Denmark and Louise of Hesse-Kassel (or Hesse-Cassel).
Before her marriage, Thyra had fallen in love with Vilhelm Frimann Marcher, a lieutenant in the cavalry, which resulted in a pregnancy. Her brother George I of Greece suggested that she have the baby in Athens to avoid scandal; the Danish press was told Thyra had been taken ill with jaundice. She gave birth to a girl, Maria, on 8 November 1871 at Schloß Glücksburg, who was adopted by Rasmus and Anne Marie Jørgensen of Odense. Marcher killed himself on 4 January 1872 after a confrontation with the King.

Although membership with a locksmith association is not a guarantee of character, many steps are taken by the RMLA to protect the integrity of the association. Participants first attend meetings by invitation and as a guest of a current member. Upon application, a background check is performed to check for felonies and other red flags, followed by a vote prior to final acceptance. The benefits of membership include mutual accountability, fellowship with locksmiths, suppliers and manufacturers, as well as educational and mentoring opportunities. RMLA meetings are currently hosted monthly by the Denver branch of Intermountain Lock and Security Supply.
Also a member of the Associated Locksmiths of America (ALOA), and formerly a member of the Missouri-Kansas Locksmith association (MKLA), Brett is proud to be a part of the RMLA and all that it represents.

Gov. Bev Perdue announced sweeping changes to the state government Thursday in an attempt to close the state's projected multibillion-dollar gap in next year's budget.
North Carolina residents already saw cutbacks to health and human services in previous years, leaving officials wondering what will be left in their departments if they're forced to make additional cuts.
"There's a real interconnectedness between what's going on in the economy and how it's affecting the state budget," said Alexandra Forter Sirota, North Carolina Budget and Tax Center director.
A former Republican county commissioner and American patriot died Friday.
David Stewart, 74, of Sherrills Ford, died at Palliative CareCenter and Hospice after an illness.
"I am saddened to hear of David's passing," said Robert E. Hibbitts, of Hickory, former county commission chairman. "Our heartfelt sympathies are sent to his family and many friends."
Hibbitts served with Stewart on the Catawba County Board of Commissioners for Stewart's 16 years on the board. For 10 of those years, Stewart was vice chairman while Hibbitts was board chairman.
Betty Rector's home is every little girl's dream.
From pink-cheeked baby dolls and fashion-forward Barbies to delicate fairies and iconic pop-culture dolls, Rector's house is a veritable doll paradise.
Rector, 75, of Hickory, is the president of the Catawba Valley Doll Club, and she has been a doll collector for about five decades.
Rector and her friend, Joan Ashton, 78, started buying dolls for their daughters more than 50 years ago, and what started as gifts for their children turned into a treasured hobby for themselves.
The holiday season is traditionally a time when children get excited about receiving toys.
But 500 area middle school students learned the gift of giving back when their school collected more than 1,000 toys in honor of Zahra Baker.
River Bend Middle School will donate 1,029 new and gently used stuffed animals to Hickory Police Department's Cops for Tots program and Conover Police Department's Santa Cops.
"Zahra is in a better place now," said Brooke Huffman, a River Bend seventh-grader. "We felt toys were a great way to comfort others who were hurting."

New Website to Trace Origins of Enslaved Africans
Little is known of the ancestry of Africans pulled into the trans-Atlantic slave trade. A new website, launched at Emory University this week, aims to change that. The African-Origins (http://www.african-origins.org) website provides a rare glimpse of the identities of Africans aboard early nineteenth-century slaving vessels, and through this information, the possibility of tracing the origins of millions of other Africans forcibly transported to the Americas. Public participation will be critical to piecing together this missing history.

I would not take this cruise again, I would try to find something different. I could not see out my windows
because all I could see was the relection from the windows on the other side of the ship.
But I love learning, if you want to learn, forget this excursion. It was sooooo noisy with all the people
talking I could here nothing of what the announcer was saying. I think he was saying a lot of historical interesting stuff. This was the first viator tour we were extremely disappointed in. Basicially we had a ride
in vehicle where I could see very little and here almost nothing. I think headset would have been a good
idea for those of us who want to hear what the announcer is saying. And charge for them. Those who
don't want to learn to just keep on visiting. EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED.

was very easy to get along with. THAT GUY!!!!!!!!!!! My highlight was, well everything, but I loved spotting
the roos at night and chasing the wombats down their holes night. Nooooooooooooooo they will not hurt you. I was the only woman who got out of the 4 wheel at night to chase down everything. You must get out
to experience them! They come out at night. The roos are on the other side of a fence so if you think they
will attack you, they can't. He stopped at a little town, for a bit of shopping at some great shops, and we
had dinner at a wonderful pub.. We truely had an "Australian Experience" thanks to Cliff.
Sydney, Australia
My Rating
Really good tour. We saw so much, everything was beautiful, I was very glad we signed up. Our bus driver was a really nice guy.
Venice, Italy
My Rating
It gets you to other islands, but that's about it. The Glass blowing was interesting. There was not much
time to do any shopping. The little that the guide on the ship said, we could not understand, because the announcements were so loud, yet fuzzy and unclear. If you want to go to the other islands, I guess, the price is excellent. I guess I was looking for something more educational about the islands and the islands we went past. There is a very good article in a recent National Geographic I am reading where this man takes a boat, and explores them by himself.
Florence, Italy
My Rating
The tour was excellent, I am sorry I have lost the name for our guide. From now on when we go to cities, I am looking on Viator first.
Florence, Italy
My Rating
I thought the tour was first rate. Tuscany was beautiful. Sandra was our guide and she was wonderful. Donatella was our guide in Sienna and she also was first rate. (Sandra: that restaurant you referred us to in Florence to eat after the tour was not that great) The lunch in Tuscany was not that great, but we loved the cows! We were brought up on the farm, so it felt like we were home.
We loved Sienna, I think it was my most favorite city on our trip!
I disagree with other reviewers that said Pisa was not worth going to, we loved it.
I would ABSOLUTELY do this tour if I was again in Florence and ask for Sandra!!!!!
Rome, Italy
My Rating
Our guide was DAVID. He was outstanding. Not only did he have the knowledge, but he had the same passion for the Vatican and art that I have. He had a wonderful personality, affable, exciting and enlightening. If you go on one of these tours, ask that David be your guide!!!

It's Friday and it's groovy. Klab Jazz has successfully launched its 7th edition of Groove Collective, a diversification of live jazz events made by this community which can also be mentioned as one of the spin offs. In this particular event, groove is being placed on top, enabling the non-jazz bands, both those who have contributed to Klab Jazz's agenda and those who are looking for a chance to absorb the experience of playing live, to participate. While groove is right on the top of the surface, we can still enjoy a lot of jazz hallmarks. The outside notes, interesting improvisations, trading, solo runs, all were there blending in with the joy of groove that can always make us tap our feet.
So here's our report from Plate For Me, one of the homegrounds of Klab Jazz since last year. What's unique is that this show began even before it was officially started. It was due to the special performance of our newest discovery, a street musician/singer and parking man named Andrew.
We spotted him by chance, as luck would have it, when he was entertaining the consumers at a small restaurant in one corner of the street. His clear, crisp voice has strong character, backed by a nice funky guitar playing. He lives in struggle day by day, trying to fulfill his wife and twin babies' needs by scratching dimes from the morning to late night hours, either by singing or as a parking attendant. After a little chat, we found out that he's actually able to play other instruments too, including piano, bass and drums. He also has his original songs which we believe would become instant hits if launched to the market. Looking at his potential, we brought him to this event to taste the different atmosphere. He took the chance and sang several songs such as "Malam Biru", "Tanpa Dirimu", Cakra Khan, "Harus Terpisah" and his own songs by using both guitar and piano. With a little work he could find his way to the industry and have the best of it. Someone like him should not be wasted, that's what we think!
Then we came to the official lineup, starting with Not for Sale. Not for Sale is not an usual name to use , but looking at the freedom of playing they inherited, we could understand where the name came from. Saxophonist Kenneth Timotius Djaja once again demonstrated his wild saxophone blowing like the way he did with his other band, Halfwhole Project.
The funky groove with soulful R&B came out from this first performers, starting with Far East Movement's "Rocketeer" followed by their own song, "Hey". Two songs were executed nicely, they covered one of Bob Marley's classic "Waiting in Vain" with lovely groovy reggae outfit. The first song they wrote, "Crossing My Mind" became the fourth song with the nu-jazz broken beat.
Such an interesting opening, where Kenneth found his new home to run wild with his instrument. Great vocalist, great instrumentalists, great groove, this group has potential. We believe if they keep the pace, with everything they have inside they will achieve success.
The crowded group filled with 8 young players D'Voile got the next turn. The disco beat on "Sunshine" was really tasty, followed by their original "Prom Night". The beat went on with "Livin' It Up", then, as Indonesians were just celebrated the Kartini's day, they sang "Ibu Kita Kartini" in medley with "Marilah Kemari." With it they ended the 2nd show.
Since they are still young, they still have more than enough time to grow. All of them possess good skills. They play neat as a unit and able to make songs. What they have to keep is the consistency of playing. Such community event like this would surely provide them the chance in getting more and more experience.
The next band was our own talent, Erick Gabe and Out of 7. This is combination of a soulful male singer with a band who made their first appearance outside the church. For Erick, sky is the limit when it's about singing. He loves to explore wide melody terrains, flying in total freedom from the low notes all the way to reach the up high ones. Out of 7 plays week after week as worship band, this fact built strong chemistry between them. The name of the band clearly states their mission, to bring the best possible sounds out of seven notes.

AP IMPACT: Market gains set up CEO pay bonanza
Other findings in the AP analysis:
- The highest-paid CEO in 2009 was Yahoo Inc.'s Carol Bartz, who received a $47.2 million compensation package during her first year on the job. Ninety percent of her pay came from stock awards and options that were all granted around the time she was hired in the winter of 2009.
- No financial companies were in the AP's top 10. Three were on the 2008 list. Citigroup Inc.'s Vikram Pandit went from No. 10 in 2008 to the third-lowest paid CEO in the AP analysis in 2009.
- The median value of performance-based cash bonuses rose 19 percent, making it the fastest-growing component of executive pay in the AP sample. CEOs generally had to meet goals for profits and stock returns in 2009 to receive the bonuses. Some companies made that easy. In early 2009, as the stock market was still falling and the economy was in a deep recession, many companies lowered the bar on the benchmarks for profit and stock returns. As profits began to improve with the economy and the market rebounded, many executives easily beat the stripped-down goals.
The AP's analysis found evidence that boards took some action amid a public outcry over executive pay following the financial meltdown and the onset of the Great Recession. The median amount CEOs received in perks fell by 15 percent in 2009, as companies cut back on benefits such as the use of corporate jets for personal travel. And fewer CEOs got a guaranteed cash bonus.
"There were deliberate efforts by companies to take away things that could get them noticed," says J. Robert Brown, a professor of business law and corporate governance at the University of Denver and an expert on compensation issues. "No one likes being an outlier."
Pandit's pay for 2009 consisted of $125,001 in salary and $3,750 in 401(k) benefits. Citigroup's board said he earned a bonus for his work in 2009, but Pandit said he won't take one until the company returns to profitability.
His compensation in 2008 was an estimated $38 million, mainly because of a large grant of stock awards and options in January 2008 shortly after he became CEO. That stock compensation was granted when Citigroup's stock traded around $23 a share. Today, it trades around $4 a share. Pandit still has time for Citigroup's stock to rebound. His options don't expire until 2018.
A few other CEOs, including General Electric Co.'s Jeffrey Immelt, turned down bonuses. United States Steel Corp. CEO John Surma took a salary cut and refused any stock compensation because of the difficult business climate.
But experts say those examples weren't typical. "There have been gains chipping away at the sides, but the real fundamental changes still need to be made," says Jesse Brill, chair of the website CompensationStandards.com and an expert on CEO pay.
Chief among those changes: Limiting how much wealth CEOs can accumulate through big grants of stock and options.
"The purpose of stock options was to create a nest egg that a CEO would receive after a successful career," Brill says. "Once that number is big, there is no reason to keep adding to it. Additional grants do not provide additional motivation."

New local movie aims to break new boundaries
Published on Feb 19, 2013 4:28 PM
The producers of upcoming local movie re:solve are touting it as Singapore's first police action-thriller. But its director Randy Ang, 34, prefers to downplay the film's blockbuster tone.
"We didn't mean it to be that way. I want to challenge the convention of what a film in Singapore can be. If it can become bigger than what it is, that's great. It may not be my doing.
"The industry deserves something different from the usual films. This type of action film is something that we are kind of familiar with but haven't tried out."
The action flick, with a budget of $1.2 million, revolves around Inspector Chen Shaoqiang (Taiwanese idol star Chris Lee), as he solves various heists and murders while dealing with his past. It also stars Taiwanese model Mico Chang and local actors Sunny Pang, Pamelyn Chee and Zheng Geping.

On California Coastal Commission Urged to Protect Coast from Offshore Fracking
Posted on August 26 at 4:39 p.m.
Dear Thomas,
Thanks for tuning into Independent.com, but you seem to have a deep reading comprehension problem, or at the very least, like your buddy Willy, a basic underlying deficiency for understanding how journalism functions.
The story above is the latest in a long series of reports that we started to publish on hydraulic fracturing a number of years ago, when we discovered that fracking had been conducted onshore near Los Alamos. Santa Barbara County quickly established strict fracking regulations, due to concerns over how potential groundwater contamination could affect farming. Those are the facts of what happened.
A July 2013 report by TruthOut.org and the Associated Press on fracking in the Santa Barbara Channel again kicked up public interest, so I have done a handful of reports since then, mostly from the perspective of the government regulators involved, though also including some information about politicians moving to regulate the practice further. These are also hard facts.
The above piece is based on what the feds told me about how fracking works offshore, based again on facts. The bias, if any, would probably be pro-oil, as they're explaining what happens offshore shouldn't be too worrisome. Maybe you missed that part?
The last paragraph is a response to that explanation from the Environmental Defense Center, which recently spoke to the California Coastal Commission on this topic. They remain convinced that, despite what BSEE is saying, there is a public interest in looking deeper at what fracking means in offshore waters. More than half of Californians agree. Again, facts.
It seems that you may be conflating comments made by the EDC as somehow being my position on the issue, or being reflective of what The Independent thinks about fracking? If so, then you are mistaken. We have not taken a position on any of this, other than the fairly standard idea that, as journalists, it is our job to inform the public about what's going on and why as best we can .
As is often the case with comments alleging "bias" and "drivel" and the like, it may be your own deep biases over this matter or over our moderately minded paper or over whatever it is that enrages you so much that is causing you to look at even coverage of this issue as circumspect.
If you are saying that we simply should ignore fracking and offshore drilling and keep the public in the dark about everything for the sake of some greater good, then I would disagree with you there. My job is to report what's known, what's not known, and what's happening so that the public can make up their own minds based on facts.
Luckily for all, our articles and the professionals who write them with their real names attached carry a bit more weight than the anonymous posters who purport to know the real facts but then aren't brave enough to use their real names. Come out from behind your veils if you are so sure of what you stand for.
Take care,
Posted on July 25 at 1:08 p.m.
The northwestern corner of the Central Coast would be, well, Santa Cruz? There isn't really one.
Lompoc is indeed the southwestern corner of both the Central Coast appellation as well as Santa Barbara County. It is certainly not the "southernmost," but it is definitely southwestern.
The northwestern corner of Santa Barbara County would be Guadalupe.

Not sure why I have chosen today to insert myself in our comments section, but this is a complicated issue with no perfect answers. Keeping comments to known facts and straying from personal attacks would help out this process and, in the end, the future of Goleta Beach, though I know that's not the preferred anonymous or even public tactics.
Along those lines, BeachFan is not entirely correct in the assessment of what would happen to the beach if the ocean was just left to go wild on it.
From page two of the executive summary of the DEIR:
"Historically, it appears that this sandspit beach has fluctuated in width, with long periods of a wide beach created by sand accretion, punctuated by periods of a narrower beach caused by erosion. In this way, the dynamic nature of Goleta Beach differs from a typical blufftop or shoreline location where coastal erosion proceeds gradually and somewhat inexorably landward. At Goleta Beach, while the shoreline has been shown to fluctuate within a "coastal process zone" between a very
wide beach and erosion to a historic back beach, the sandspit appears to have remained in generally the same area and configuration over time. "
Translation: the beach has always been there, as far as anyone can tell.

Texas Instruments unites speed and efficiency with industry's fastest dual, 14-bit ADC
New 250-MSPS data converter provides 66 percent greater bandwidth than competing dual ADCs
"Communications, defense and test design engineers are constantly challenged to create signal and data acquisition receivers with increasingly wide signal bandwidths that do not compromise overall system performance," said
Key features and benefits of the ADS62P49
- Fastest dual, 14-bit ADC at 250 MSPS enables multi-channel, wide-bandwidth sampling without sacrificing dynamic performance, for enhanced accuracy in portable test equipment
- Low power of 625 mW per channel reduces thermal footprint for increased system efficiency in high-density, multi-antenna base station receivers and software defined radios
- Programmable gain and other user-selectable settings maximize design flexibility. Internal gain up to 6 dB in 1-dB steps allows customers to optimize SNR, SFDR and input swing based on the unique need of their applications. Designers can maximize SNR to enhance linearization effectiveness in digital pre-distortion (DPD) solutions, while SFDR can be increased and input drive reduced to improve small-signal analysis in defense and radio receiver applications
- Complete signal chain with comprehensive evaluation tools suite speeds time to market. Complementary products include: DACs (DAC5682Z, DAC5688), amplifiers (THS4509), RF components (TRF3703, TRF3761), DPD transmit processors (GC5325), clock distribution circuits (CDCE72010) and digital signal processors (TMS320C674x)
- First in a series of four 12- and 14-bit dual channel ADCs with sample rates of 210 and 250 MSPS (ADS62P28, ADS62P29, ADS62P48). Pin-compatible to dual-channel ADS6000 family for easy upgrades in speed and resolution

Comment: Great Strategy (Score 5, Insightful) 112
Honestly I think it's a great strategy to be bold and NOT be afraid to try new things. They are lucky to be in a position to be able to reach many of their customers and experiment. I say try, be bold. You fail, you hopefully learn from your mistakes and customers. Try again. Something will stick and could become successful.
At least Amazon compared to Samsung tries new things they do not copy. It takes courage to try and gamble with large sum of money. My hat off to Amazon even if I don't always like their product. Hell I did sign up for the Echo. I might stay in a drawer after a few weeks who knows but it's a good opportunity to try something very new. A virtual assistant that could listen to you at all time in the future. There is a lot of potential to learn from this.

Top seeds Jeevan Nedunchezhiyan and N. Sriram Balaji won the doubles title at the MPTA ITF men's Futures tennis championship here on Friday.
In a one-sided final, the duo defeated the Japanese pair of Toshihide Matsui and Bumpei Sato 6-1, 6-4.
The first four games of the match saw three breaks of serve — two by the Indians and one by the Japanese. That was the only game Matsui and Sato would win before Jeevan and Balaji, aided by some exceptional service returns, routed them 6-1.
The Tamil Nadu duo broke Matsui and Sato in the fourth game of the second set to go 3-1 up.
Jeevan, after some shaky serving in the first, chose to go for kick serves and drew the receiver wide. It worked as Balaji poached on any looping return that came his way near the net.
Prajnesh in final
Earlier, Prajnesh Gunneswaran continued his giant-killing act with a 7-5, 7-5 victory over Karunuday Singh in the singles semifinals. A break each in the 11th game of each set was enough for the lanky 23-year-old to enter the final.
After playing catch-up for a good part of the first set, fighting back from 1-3 down, the second saw a more confident Prajnesh. Equally adept at both setting-up points and executing winners, he forced Singh to go for the lines more. Singh did hit some exceptional winners but a string of unforced errors completely masked them.
Prajnesh will meet Vijayant Malik in the final on Saturday. Till the semifinal, Malik had spent the least amount of time on court. Every bit of energy saved proved decisive as Malik outlasted Balaji 7-6(5), 7-6(6) under tiring conditions.
Though Balaji raced ahead 5-2 and served for the set twice, Malik reeled off four games in a row. A contentious line call while he was serving at 5-4 rattled Balaji and from then on he never looked the same player, losing both the sets on tie-breaks.
The results: Singles: Semifinals: Prajnesh Gunneswaran bt Karunuday Singh 7-5, 7-5; Vijayant Malik bt N. Sriram Balaji 7-6(5), 7-6(6).
Doubles: Final: Sriram Balaji & Jeevan Nedunchezhiyan bt Toshihide Matsui & Bumpei Sato (Jpn) 6-1, 6-4.
