Fastest/Top 7970 Card
by jwl24 - 2/26/13 6:34 PM
As the title states, I'm looking for the fastest, top of the line 7970 card.
There's so many different ones out there, I've read all the reviews, and what not but still haven't been able to determine which card actually takes the lead..
I'm hoping that posting here, I can get some help in determining the outcome. From what I've read and everything, it seems possibly... that these few are the top cards for 7970 edition cards?
Of course I'm assuming the Ghz edition cards are always faster than the non, but this is including overclocking, etc.
From what I put together, a couple of the cards that I figure in the line up are:
MSI Lightning 7970
Asus Matrix Platinum 7970
Sapphire Vapor X 7970
Any others that would beat these cards, and take the lead would be greatly appreciated. Hope some folks can give me feedback, can't decide on what card to actually get.
I know the Titan beats the single card, but I can't justify the price (if i was to xfire, around $800, rather than just $1k for a single card), and from what I know the 7970 ghz edition single cards, beat the current nivida single cards (exception of titan)

What our Citizens are saying about this great gift of the leaf...
|Smooth, sweet and awesome!
|June 26, 2014
|This is by far and away the best bottled tea I've ever come across! Stuff is far from inexpensive, but as a treat to oneself or for someone who appreciates a good iced tea, then it's worth the price. I also buy the full leaf Darjeeling tea by the bag, but this pre brewed bottled stuff is awesome!
|Simply The Best Iced Tea
|November 03, 2013
|Republic Darjeeling Black Iced Tea is, in my opinion, THE most delicious iced black tea I have ever tasted in my life. It is perfection personified. No sweetener is needed, just pour over ice and drink. The only drawback is that it is $5 per bottle. If I won the lottery, I would have a never-ending supply of this tea.
|This is GREAT!
|October 18, 2013
|Wonderful taste! It definitely is the Champagne of Teas!
|Yum! Delicious, Delicate
|December 04, 2012
|My Favorite!!!
|The Greatest Bottled Tea!
|December 04, 2012
|Delicious with lemon and lots of ice.
|Replacing sweet tea
|November 04, 2012
|I have been trying to drop sweet tea from my diet, and this is the first adequate replacement I have found for it.
|Best tea, Way too expensive
|June 20, 2012
|I have had this tea for years as a local store carried it. It was a couple of dollars and wonderful tea. The best ever actually, but not for $5. I bought two bottles just as a special treat, but the extravagance of cost off set the splendid taste and was less enjoyed. Won't do it again,, ever. The price has to come down.
|My whole family likes this!
|March 29, 2012
|I will buy this again. Tastes great!
|Best. Iced. Tea. Ever.
|March 16, 2012
|Simply the best iced tea I have ever tasted in my life and I am a bit of a connoisseur. Expensive but worth it if you can afford it. I used to buy it by the case and because it's in glass bottles, the shipping cost isn't cheap. Still, treat yourself. It will spoil you for any other unflavored black iced teas. No sugar added, no sugar needed. Sublime, refreshing taste. Highly recommended!
|February 29, 2012
|very weak; barely any flavor. the price is ridiculous- can make a whole pitcher myself for pennies. won't buy again.
|My Favorite Iced Tea
|February 20, 2012
|This review is bittersweet. This is the best Iced Tea I've ever had but I won't buy it at $5.00/bottle. I'm knocking 1 point off my rating due to the high price.
|December 22, 2011
|The tea is delicious, but no tea is worth $5 a bottle. I will not be purchasing this product anymore unless the price goes down to make it more competitive.
|Southern Gal loves this tea!
|November 23, 2011
|This tea is the best. Having been raised in the South, I know my tea and this tea is awesome. Love it with Splenda and lemon (of course). It comes well packaged and is shipped very quickly! Love this tea...love this company!

Key To The Highway
Eric Clapton
I got the key to the highway
Billed out and bound to go
I'm gonna leave here running
Walking is most too slow
I'm going back to the border
Woman, where I'm better known
You know you haven't done nothing
Drove a good man away from home
When the moon peeks over the mountains
I'll be on my way
I'm gonna roam this old highway
Until the break of day
Oh give me one, one more kiss mama
Just before I go
'Cause when I leave this time you know I
I won't be back no more

Iraq attacks kill 20 as security forces vote ahead of Wednesday's polls
Published on Apr 28, 2014 6:49 PM
BAGHDAD (AFP) - Deadly attacks on Monday, including a spate of suicide bombings, killed 20 soldiers and policemen as they cast their ballots ahead of Iraq's first election since US troops withdrew.
The bombings in Baghdad, as well as north and west Iraq raise serious concerns about the ability of the country's security forces to protect voters during Wednesday's general election, when more than 20 million Iraqis are eligible to vote. They come amid a protracted surge in violence and fears that the country is edging towards all-out conflict.
Attackers wearing suicide belts hit polling centres in Baghdad and cities north of the capital, while roadside bombs struck military convoys and targeted journalists covering the polling.
At a voting centre in western Baghdad where six security members were killed, ambulances rushed to and fro, collecting the wounded, as soldiers cordoned off the street and ushered passersby away, an AFP journalist said.

Our Mission
The Friends of the Detroit River envisions an ever improving quality of life for people, plants and animals in southeast Michigan and southwest Ontario. We will do that through the development of a balance of grass roots advocacy and staffed programs, forming an environmental group that watches and protects the Detroit River. Our efforts will include the creation of a highly visible resource center focusing on Detroit River issues, programs, research, policies and partnerships.
The Detroit Riverkeeper Program
The heart of what the Friends of the Detroit River (FDR) is all about is the Detroit Riverkeeper Program. The Detroit Riverkeeper Program was established in the fall of 2002, when FDR's program was accepted as a member of the international organization known as the Waterkeeper Alliance. The celebration of the establishment of the Riverkeeper Program that fall was attended by Robert Kennedy, Jr., as a representative of the Alliance. The Friends of the Detroit River is a citizens' advocacy group, and the Riverkeeper Program serves as our most visible program to protect the interests of the river and the citizens of the surrounding community. There is a paid staff member, the Detroit Riverkeeper, who patrols the river in our Riverkeeper boat, and serves as the "eyes and ears" of the citizens of the river community. The Riverkeeper also works closely with various state and federal agencies, as well as local watershed groups, non-profit organizations, elected officials, and citizens to ensure that our interests in the preservation and improvement of the Detroit River are protected.

Inter Milan coach Andrea Stramaccioni admits being forced to cut short his playing career sent him into depression.
The 36 year-old was forced to retire early due to serious injury.
"Ending my playing career due to injury was the saddest moment of my young life," he told Sette.
"It was as if in a single moment everything had been destroyed – my dreams of playing in Serie A, but above all of playing professional football. To this day when I kick the ball a few times my knee swells up.
"I put on 15kg as I was so depressed. I was only helped out of that dark time by my family and my studies.
"My small message that I can send is that even in Italy a Coach who was not a famous player, nor related to a star, can reach a big club. 'You made it coming from nothing' is the greatest compliment I can receive.
"I have always tended to spot which players can change roles. I worked at the very bottom of the rung and was also a talent scout for professional clubs, all of which helped me."

I LOVE my children! by all means, with everything I have. I just can't get over my stretch marks. I was 16 when i got pregnant with my first and the father wouldn't eat anywhere but fastfood. i gained a ton! went from 99lbs to 160 by birth.. i have them on my boobs, tummy from my belly button down to my c-section scar, on my hips, inner thighs and lightly on my butt!
i am greatful that my soon to be husband now doesn't take notice and get upset with me when i complain about them. I just wish they would go away!! lol..

Burning Bright (1993)
by Melissa Scott
» 8 more
Top Five Books of 2014 (583)
Female Author (677)
The planet Burning Bright is an independent trading station caught between two superpowers: the human Republic and the hsai Empire; it is also the home of the Game, a networked roleplay game that provides infinite scenarios (if deliberately little closure) in an alternate universe of equal political intrigue and psi powers. For Quinn Lioe, Republican pilot, a forced stop-over on Burning Bright while her ship is repaired is an excuse to test out a new scenario she has written on the Game's home planet and cement her growing reputation in the Game; but winning the attention of Game notables unexpectedly draws her into the political wrangles of the real world.
This was somewhere between a 4 and a 4.5* read for me - a thoroughly enjoyable, captivating ride through political intrigue in a colourful scifi setting. Scott does an excellent job of sketching a complex set-up and making it feel real without giving you all the detail, allowing her to focus on her characters and plot and leaving you wishing she'd set another brace of books in the same universe so you can explore it further. Great stuff.
Fictionwise multiformat ebook
Not bad! A lot of interesting social stuff going on here -- the entertainment prestige of roleplaying games (a notable gamer in Burning Bright's society has the kind of respect that a talented athlete gets in ours, really) is neat to imagine, and I really like the way that people can just be queer and not have that be a major issue.
The pacing felt somewhat awkward, though; it took a long time for the plot to ramp up and then it came to a pretty sudden stop at the end, with a much darker ending than I felt like we'd been prepared for.
Burning Bright is a good read.
While it is something of an interstellar political romp, it manages to remain smallish in scope. The Game - one single video game played across the galaxy - doesn't seem entirely interesting enough to keep people's attention.
There are a couple of really charming artwork installations described, and I enjoyed the idea that in this particular universe, nearly everyone is bisexual (it's always rather seemed to me that people would eventually lean that way).
When the dying character finally dies, the characters who should mourn the most don't really seem to. Their cavalier attitudes were a bit jarring to me.
Overall, though, I do recommend this book! It's a great little light sci-fi novel with very rich and detailed world-building by Scott.
The planet Burning Bright has a nice, central location for trade. It is also home to a lot of virtual gaming. A young gamemaster debuts one of her new scenarios here, and becomes an overnight sensation.
She attracts the attention of the glitterati and some of the more dangerous higher ups in society, and is embroiled in some dodgy situations because of this.

Singapore actor Lim Yu Beng has joined the growing chorus of netizens condemning recent pleas by two church pastors against the repeal of Section 377A in Singapore.
"To put it simply, Pastor Khong wants it illegal to be homosexual in Singapore. My point is this. Nobody is making it compulsory for him to be gay. Why should he make it compulsory for others to be straight?," he said in a Facebook post on Sunday.
The respected veteran stage and film actor said he was not questioning the Pastor's beliefs but rather "his right to impose those interpretations on others through legislation".
Lim's comments come amid a growing and bitter debate in the past week over Senior Pastor Lawrence Khong's plea to the government not to overturn Section 377A, which criminalises sex between consenting gay men. Read the full story.

Cricket® Brand Champions Environmental Sustainability with Product Line
Cricket works to alleviate the negative impact on the environment with product offerings certified by the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC®).
(PRWEB) June 20, 2013
The Lights International Operating unit of Swedish Match AB, headquartered in Stockholm, Sweden, today announced that the recently introduced Cricket 5-Minute Firestarter is certified by the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC®). The FSC is an independent, international non-profit organization established to promote the responsible management of the world´s forests. Cricket has taken active measures to reduce the environmental impact of all its operations, including the selection of materials used in the creation of new products.
FSC certified products matter to the sustainability of the world´s forests, which filter the air we breathe, the water we drink, and house nearly half of the world´s species. Over the past 20 years, the FSC has earned its reputation as the most rigorous forest certification system. Cricket proudly stands behind the efforts of the FSC to promote environmentally and socially beneficial forestry, a view that is reflected in the design of its products.
An increasing number of consumers correlate a company´s level of social responsibility with exceptional product quality and value. Cricket takes this concern to heart when developing and packaging its products. The Cricket 5-Minute Firestarter, which easily lights campfires, fireplaces and more without the need of kindling, is manufactured using FSC certified wood, cardboard, and other controlled sources. In addition, the Cricket Candle Lighter and Multi-lite utility lighter are refillable— saving resources while increasing product value for the consumer.
Purchasing FSC certified products helps to promote environmentally appropriate, socially beneficial, and economically viable management of the world's forests to ensure that:
- Harvest of timber and non-timber products maintains the forest's biodiversity, productivity, and ecological processes
- Local people and society at large enjoy long-term benefits and strong incentives to sustain forest resources and adhere to long-term management plans
- Forest operations are structured and managed to be sufficiently profitable without generating financial gain at the expense of the forest resource, ecosystem, or affected communities
Cricket products are used every day by nearly 200 million consumers throughout 140 countries. For more information about the Cricket brand, please visit the website at http://www.cricketusa.net or Cricket´s Facebook page at http://facebook.com/CricketLighters. Swedish Match AB, one of the world´s largest manufacturers and distributors of matches, lighters, and fire-related products, is listed on NASDAQ OMX Stockholm (SWMA).

Death penalty ends killer's chances to kill
In response to the commentary "Death penalty is not justice" (Opinion, April 26):
As a Catholic I've always considered those opposed to the death penalty as having very little respect for human life.
Someone can take another's life, or kill 77 people in Norway, and the worst punishment is to be clothed and fed for the rest of one's life while incarcerated, and incarcerated not always for the remainder of the killer's life.
Norwegian Anders Breivik said in court, "I would have done it again." His maximum sentence allowed is 21 years or 3.3 months for each life. Amazing!
Anyone committing first-degree murder forfeits his own right to life. By depriving another of his or her life morally he is to be deprived of his own life. Whether the death penalty acts as a deterrent is beside the point. At least the killer cannot kill again.

A requiem for fire agency
In response to "Embattled San Miguel will talk with Cal Fire" (Local reports, April 24): The last alarm bell rang Wednesday as 72 San Miguel firefighters' careers were killed.
The deceased, continually beaten down since 2008 were put to death with a pen.
The self-admitted executioners, Chris Winter, Rick Augustine, Larry Jackman, Dave Rickards, stole their livelihoods as the chief hoards $5 million for his own agendas.
Repercussions affect residents within the county now assisted by Cal Fire, whose reputation for hiring convicted felons will now respond to your homes for emergencies.
Surviving the abandoned firefighters are their wives and children, now forced to live without retiree medical insurance. The fire chief and his public information officer will receive lifetime medical after riding chairs for five years.
No services were planned due to the event's magnitude.

Preparing for tests
Schools seem to shut down for a month to prepare their students for CST/STAR tests. These tests are crucial for a school's (and its staff's) good standing in receiving its needed funds.
What I do not understand is why students go into these exams without knowing the rules and strategies for taking these tests. It is not cheating to know in advance if the SAT and ACT have scoring penalties or any other rules that imply a testing strategy.
For example, why don't teachers and administrators go over the following a few days before the tests?
Is there a scoring penalty for incorrect answers? If not, should students guess and is process of elimination a useful strategy?
Do the tests proceed from easy to difficult in their sequencing?
Do the tests follow chronologically what the student has learned throughout the year?
What is an appropriate pace for these exams?
How much time, on the average, does a student have to answer each question?
I know these tests are very important; why don't educators take the test-taking strategies more seriously?

Utility wins; ratepayers lose
In response to "Utility's 'smart meters' optional" (Business, April 20): First we had SDG&E obtaining approval from the PUC to install smart meters for us all. This was done at a cost of $460 million which is paid for by the ratepayers. Now you have an opt-out for $75 up front and $10 per month. SDG&E really wanted this as it cost them nothing and the utility could eliminate the meter readers, a big, big savings.

Eurhanasia is legal in Switzerland and Netherlands and permissable to individuals case by case in Denmark and in Sweden. Gravely ill persons, whose lives have no other substance than suffering and who wish to die are nowadays assisted to die in Europe. Their will is respected and they take responsibility for it, that is: for their decision to die. The values keep transforming; earlier there was only "the right to live" , today next to it there also is "the right to die". To assist somebody to die is nevertheless difficult, especially to the old generation, who was brought up by the morality of the Ten Commandmends, one of which says: "thou shalt not kill". But the more Judeo-Christian values lose their significance in Europe and new generations grow up unaware of them, bc they no longer are taught in schools, the more acceptable the new values become as for ex. already widely approved homosexuality indicates. Approving euthanasia is the next in line of permitted new values. The consciences of physicians, who still today swear the oath of Hippokrates to save lives, not to take them, are torn by the paradox they are in to assist somebody to die. Maybe the oath has to be abolished from the medical training, bc the values are changing. --- The other week I read a column in the JPost that "bc saving life is the greatest Jewish value, it is the obligation of the Jewish doctors to save the lives of these Pal-prisoners by force-feeding them". BUT is it right to force one's own values on people, who live by other values and see things differently? The writer is American, so implementing one's will on others is an American value, NOT a Jewish value, I'd like to emphasize. The Am Jewish writers 'ld separate them from one another and not entwine them together, please. In my opinion such enforcement of one's own will on others is violence and arrogant. The writer of this column revealed that he takes Judaism for superior to other religions. Ouch! Yet the G-d of Israel stresses humility: knowing oneself and respecting others too for what they are without trying to change them to one's own liking. The higest value of Islam is to die as a martyr. This the Israeli Jewish doctors are forbidding from them and thus putting Jewish value above the Islamic value. Naughty! The Israeli doctors need not take responsibility for what is not on their responsibility! ------ There is a great part in the movie "Gandhi" that has become permanently engraved in my mind : a troubled Hindu father all in tears comes to Gandhi and tells him anguished that he killed a Muslim child bc a Muslim killed his son. Gandhi advices him to look for a Muslim orphan boy and to raise him as his son, but "bring him up a Muslim", Gandhi adds. ---- In this force-feeding issue the question is not whether it is "right or wrong" to force-feed the prisoners and to "save their lives", but the decision 'ld be guided by love: to let these prisoners be the Muslims they are, to let them become martyrs, the highest Islamic value, they want to become ... to respect them for who they are and for the values they hold dear. G-d indeed commanded us "not to kill", but He has also commanded us to LOVE our fellowmen and the greatest expression of love is to give the other person freedom, especially freedom to follow his heart, his will.
If selected for publication, it will appear as soon as possible on Haaretz.com.

continued Murphy said 60 percent of all students believe kids who get bullied deserve it, so that's the first hurdle to overcome. Also, bullies get away with their actions around 95 percent of the time.
"Our children know who, what, when and where this happens, because they see it every day," Murphy said. "We hang up posters that say zero tolerance and we think that that is the answer to stopping them."
Every seven seconds a teen is bullied in this country, with 250,000 bullied each month, he said. Also, he said 65 percent of teens don't report it, which bring the monthly total closer to 500,000.
Every single year he said 100,000 kids leave school and never go back, due to bullying. Also, he said 160,000 kids skip school every day due to bullying and will fake being sick.
"I did the elementary school yesterday and after I gave the presentation the principal came up to me and he said, 'Tom, you are so right, because I have a 4th grader right now in the nurse's office pretending she is sick because she is being bullied by a little boy that was in one of your programs,'" he said.
Only around 5 to 7 percent of children in the school are really bullied, with around the same percentage acting as bullies, he said. In order for someone to be bullied, he said, it has to be habitual intimidation. There also has to be the element of the other person being smaller or weaker, he said.
"A lot of parents will think things are bullying, but they are really not," he said.
When the word "bully" was first coined in the 1530s it meant "sweetheart," he said. In the 17th century the word became distorted to mean harasser of the weak, which is where the term evolved to modern usage.

Alternatively, if you have a bead that needs to be removed from your work, an awl is a good way to solve the issue. Just stick the sharp end inside the bead and keep going until the bead breaks off.

Glenn Beck once famously blamed Nazi genocide on empathy. He based this view on the fact that Hitler's propaganda machine once claimed that murdering those with physical disabilities and/or learning difficulties was the empathetic thing to do. His conclusion? "Empathy leads you to many bad decisions."
Beck's opinion is one that seems to be shared by a whole lot of Americans when considering the plight of those of their fellow citizens who are in debt. But perhaps many in arrears or default don't deserve much sympathy or empathy. They threw away money they didn't have, buying things they didn't need, in pursuit of a happiness they didn't achieve.
True, our economy is largely based on consumer credit, and would probably collapse if people only bought what they had to have. And a whole industry exists that has the sole aim of persuading people that purchasing the unnecessary or the unnecessarily expensive is going to make them happy. But this country's ethos of personal responsibility is deeply ingrained and a cause of much of its success, and it's neither possible nor desirable to be rid of it.
Bankruptcy and seniors
However, even the most hard-hearted and judgmental of observers must surely be moved by the prospect of unmanageable debt among one particular group: seniors. When people in their 20s, 30s, and 40s get themselves into financial trouble, they generally have plenty of opportunities to get back on track. By the time they're in their late 50s or older, those opportunities have dwindled away, often almost to nothing.Trouble is, the number of seniors with serious money problems is large and growing. The AARP quotes on its website data compiled by the Institute for Financial Literacy: In 2011, 25.3 percent of all personal bankruptcy filings were made by those 55 years and over, up from 21.8 percent in 2006. That growing proportion is bad enough, but it's made worse by the fact that the total number of those bankruptcies was up 134 percent over the same period, rising to 1.4 million from fewer than 600,000. In other words, more than 350,000 seniors went bust in 2011.

Bold and beautiful
I have one more beauty from Rethink Design Studio for you. This time it is quite bold in a Hollywood Regency sort of way. Lots of pattern and colour (someone loves pink, purple and turquoise!). I am pretty sure having such a bold bedroom would quickly make me go cuckoo but it is well executed nonetheless.

Bill would tie Congressional pay to spending cuts
Tuesday - 4/2/2013, 7:40pm EDT
WASHINGTON (AP) -- The District of Columbia's delegate to Congress says salaries for members of Congress should be reduced the next time automatic spending cuts take effect.
Democratic Delegate Eleanor Holmes Norton says she'll introduce a bill next week that would subject congressional salaries to any future automatic, across-the-board cuts like those that took effect last month.
The 1985 law that established the process for the cuts explicitly exempts the president's salary and has been interpreted as exempting congressional salaries.
Norton calls it "the definition of unfairness" for Congress to subject federal employees to effective pay cuts through furloughs when members are not willing to take pay cuts themselves. She has previously pledged to donate a day's pay for each day federal workers are furloughed.
The bill does not yet have any co-sponsors.

"Rapid adoption of the new DP standard is made possible by the
availability of DP connectors on new computers — supported by the latest
chipsets from Nvidia, Intel, and AMD," said
DisplayPort Solutions at Pericom. "We provide the bridging scheme required for
a short interim until the displays also migrate towards DP; DisplayPort
implementation is more accessible with our new ReDriver and DP switches."
Pericom will showcase these innovative DisplayPort solutions at CES
be in the Sands Convention Center, booth #73611 as part of the DisplayPort
Tech Zone, hosted by VESA (http://www.vesa.org).

Boys are rough & tough and they grow up way too fast. Taking the time to plan a big celebration during their birthday is a great way to make memories that last forever. Selecting the best party theme starts with the design of the party invitations. Below are the top 5 party invitation designs for little boys to help assist you in your decision making process.1) Trains: There are many options for boy birthday invitations with a train theme. A simple choo choo train on the front of the invitation says enough, or maybe a conductor's hat and railroad crossing signs would be nice add-ons for your design if you want more details. Trains are popular for all ages.
Remember when selecting the party invitation design to always keep in mind what you have planned for your party theme. Let the birthday boy help pick out his party design and he'll be even more excited about his celebration.
"This invitation turned out so cute! Very high quality paper and envelope. Arrived earlier than expected. Very satisfied!"
"We are so happy with the way the invitations turned out. We ordered 2 day shipping and received them in 1 day. It was exactly what we were looking for."
"The invitations we ordered are wonderful! The quality of the paper is superior - Iwebelieve it will be a keepsake for many of our guests. We were extremely pleased with the color and quality of the picture we uploaded - and each invitation showed this unique quality. The printing, font, and colors are so professionally done - one would never know it was designed and submitted online. Also, it is important to point out how user friendly the website is and also how good the communication is following an order. We received an email advising of our order's review and even that our one special request had been completed. We will definitely use Tiny Prints in the future."
"This was such an adorable product. We used this for our son's first birthday party. I have received countless compliments on the invitation. Wonderful product and I received it so quickly after ordering it."
"My son is turning three. This card came out so adorable I can't even tell you. The pictures I used front and back are exactly how I wanted them and it blends perfectly with the card design. I'm super happy and love this beautiful keepsake for his baby book too (yes- I save a birthday invite and holiday card every year). Love this invite!"

The Color Purple
Walker, Alice
Alice Walker, 1944–, African-American novelist and poet, b. Eatonon, Ga. The daughter of sharecroppers, she studied at Spelman College (1961–63) and Sarah Lawrence College (B.A., 1965). She brings her travel experience in Africa and memories of the American civil-rights movement to an examination of the experience of African Americans, mainly in the South, and of Africans. A self-described
she has maintained a strong focus on feminist issues within African-American culture. Walker won wide recognition with her novel The Color Purple (1982; Pulitzer Prize; film, 1985), a dark but sometimes joyous saga of a poor black Southern woman's painful journey toward self-realization. Among her other novels are Meridian (1976), The Temple of My Familiar (1989), By the Light of My Father's Smile (1994), and Now Is the Time to Open Your Heart (2004). Her short-story collections include You Can't Keep a Good Woman Down (1981) and the partially autobiographical The Way Forward Is with a Broken Heart (2000). She has also written poetry, such as Revolutionary Petunias and Other Poems (1973), Her Blue Body Everything We Know: Earthling Poems 1965–1990 (1991), and Absolute Trust in the Goodness of the Earth (2003). Many of her essays are collected in Living by the Word (1988) and Anything We Love Can Be Saved (1997).

His essays are rather insightful, and they are available for free on his site. The above mentioned "Where to stand and where to put the edges" is truly an excellent read. I also enjoyed his take on the use of a 35mm camera, it helped to play a part in my own explorations with a small camera from time to time.
It really is amazing, the simple things we take for granted. If I'm most gratefull for any one thing photography has given me it's the ability to view the world with fresh eyes and to appreciate the visual spledor we're constantly surroded by... I think Mark's photographs exemplify that as much as anyones.
