Extra, This Is the Meaning of Life
December 8, 2015 | by Delmore Schwartz
"Sonnet," a poem by Delmore Schwartz from our Winter 1986 issue. Schwartz was born on this day in 1913 and died in 1966; this poem, dated 1938, was drawn from his unpublished manuscripts and typescripts at Yale University's Beinecke Library. Robert Phillips called it "a good example of his earliest work, which took Eliot and Yeats as models. Compact, rhyming, and formal, the poems attempted to mythologize Schwartz, to dramatize history, and to pay homage to the world of culture." —D. P. Read More »
Flush with Talent, and Other News
September 4, 2015 | by Dan Piepenbring
- Joy Williams has a new collection out, and a reporter has found her in rare form: "Williams does not have an email address. She uses a flip phone and often writes in motels and friends' houses on old Smith-Coronas; she brings one with her and keeps others everywhere she stays … Williams now splits her time among Tucson, her daughter's home in Maine and Laramie, migrating across the country with her dogs in her Toyota, which has 160,000 miles on it but is pretty new by her standards. (Her last car, her old Bronco, neared 360,000.) She eats a lot of Weetabix."
- You should be proud of your name: it's yours. It denotes y-o-u, and no one can take that away from you. Unfortunately, things get a bit complicated if your parents happen to have given you a necronym, that is, a death name: "It usually means a name shared with a dead sibling. Until the late nineteenth century, necronyms were not uncommon among Americans and Europeans. If a child died in infancy, his or her name was often given to the next child, a natural consequence of high birth rates and high infant mortality rates … In their 1989 Dictionary of Superstitions, folklorists Iona Opie and Moira Tatum offer one reason for the necronym's decline: many parents feared it was a murderous curse."
- "Unless ice burns and burning fire cools / No bard could look on you and not speak out / It can not be that I monopolize / The making of the songs that give you praise / Or that such pools as are your dearest eyes / Have just one bather." These lines, and about eight others like them, are worth seventy-five hundred pounds. That's not because they're excellent, necessarily. It's because Ezra Pound wrote them. They're from an unpublished sonnet he wrote to the British painter Isabel Codrington in April 1909; it sold at auction earlier this week. "He obviously admired her," said a perceptive employee at the auction house.
- Let's go on an adventure with the passive voice, shall we? Watch as, step-by-grammatically-irksome-step, "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog" becomes "Speed was involved in a jumping-related incident while a fox was brown." "We have finally fully arrived at the ultimate in passive voice: the past exonerative tense, so named because culpability is impossible when actions no longer exist. For the most extensive erasure of direct communicative value, the original object can now even be removed entirely."
- Duchamp is old hat. The future of toilet art is, like the future of most things, in Japan, where an exhibition called Toilennale "brings together Japanese artists who have transformed sixteen public restrooms into sites for art installations … one park lavatory literally becomes a sweet site, transformed inside and out by a trio of artists into an enormous piece of pink candy titled 'Melting Dreams.' "
Love Is a Bohemian
June 11, 2015 | by Dan Piepenbring
From "Renée Vivien," an essay by Natalie Clifford Barney anthologized in A Perilous Advantage: The Best of Natalie Clifford Barney. Vivien, a poet who was born on this day in 1877, began an intense affair with Barney in 1899; in 1901, they broke up, and Barney began to devote herself to winning Vivien's affections again. Eventually they reunited and traveled together to Lesbos, but not without great effort on Barney's part. "How could I win her back?" she writes: "Should I bang on her closed door? Dare to send her a more direct poem, reveal to her my suffering, how much I was suffering? Swallow my pride and admit that I loved her still, since I could not help but be faithful to her?" She decided to write a sonnet—"My tears are a slow poison I will drink/Instead of gleaning from some trivial affair/A barren cure, the final numbness," are among its lines.
But how to get this sonnet to her without anyone else reading it? I asked my friend, Emma Calvé—who was also suffering from a romantic desertion … to lend me her irresistible voice. That night, disguised as street singers, she sang under Renée Vivien's French windows: "I have lost Eurydice, there is no pain like mine," while I pretended to pick up coins thrown to us from the other floors. At last René opened her French window, the better to hear that astounding voice singing the famous aria. "Love is a Bohemian whom no law binds." The moment had arrived. I threw my poem, attached to a bouquet of blowers, over the garden fence so that she would see it and pick it up. But passers-by were beginning to crowd around us and we had to slip away before the singer, recognized even in the shows by her voice, was swamped with applause. Read More »
Staff Picks: Pop, Rock, and Bear Hock
August 29, 2014 | by The Paris Review
John Swartzwelder has written more Simpsons episodes than any other writer (fifty-nine in total). He's also one of the most eccentric writers in the business: one story goes that "when he could no longer smoke in restaurants, he bought his favorite booth from his favorite diner and had it installed in his home." Since leaving The Simpsons in 2003, he has self-published a novel each year, all of which are available on his Web site. After reading his first novel, The Time Machine Did It, I'm not surprised that Swartzwelder is the same person who introduced now-classic Simpsons characters such as Cletus Spuckler, Stampy the Elephant, and the three-eyed fish Blinky (who has now become a symbol among pundits for nuclear waste and wildlife mutation). The novels are pure screwball, honoring the comedies of the Marx Brothers and Preston Sturges as Swartzwelder dismisses any narrative rule for laughs. In The Time Machine Did It, a private detective named Frank Burly ("to give prospective clients the idea that I was a burly kind of man ... and who would be frank with them at all times") finds himself traveling through time for a supposed multimillionaire who wakes up one day to find that everything he owns is gone. The plotline includes a homemade time machine and a town taken over by criminals, but why the novel works is the simple fact that it never takes itself too seriously. "On an impulse I mooned most of the 1950's as I went by. I don't know what makes me do these things. I guess it's just part of my charm." —Justin Alvarez
In outline, it reads like something made up by Roberto Bolaño: an Austrian writer crosses America, wracked by nightmares and visions and pursued by his mysterious, estranged wife. Peter Handke's 1972 novella Short Letter, Long Farewell helped inspire the American "road movies" of Wim Wenders, and if Bolaño didn't know the book, there is a strong family resemblance. As the critic Wayne Koestenbaum put it, the two writers share an "ability to sound sane (though vacant-souled) about insane circumstances," whether these involve a desert sunset or a restaurant serving bear hock à la Daniel Boone. —Lorin Stein
That Olivier Messiaen's "Quartet for the End of Time" is, in part, a transmutation of birdsong into lines of music has oddly come up several times over the past month, in the course of putting together the Fall issue and elsewhere. At the same time, I've found myself returning periodically to Music & Literature's impressive fourth issue to gaze at the work of British composer Barry Guy, whose graphic scores are translations of sensory experiences relating to literature, painting, and architecture and visual reflections of movement, energy, and pitch. So it felt like the stars had fully aligned when I read Christian Wiman's "translations" of Osip Mandelstam, from a small collection called Stolen Air. Instead of faithfully translating Mandelstam's poems, Wiman has created versions of them: though some closely resemble the originals, others, he says, are "liberal transcriptions" and "collisions and collusions" between the two poets. Wiman sought to get at the sound of Mandelstam's language, its music, without having any knowledge of Russian but feeling buoyed by Mandelstam's notion of a poet's "secret hearing." And so we get silvery, jostling lines like "I love the early animal of her, / These woozy, easy swings" and "Better to live alluvial, / Better to live layered downward, / To be a man of sand, of hollows, shallows / To cling to sleeves of water / And to let them go—" —Nicole Rudick Read More »
Banal Sentimentality; Tackling Tolstoy
February 10, 2012 | by Lorin Stein
I'm planning a trip to Southeast Asia later in the year, and I'm looking for fiction set in the countries I'll be visiting. For the most part I've managed to find books that fit the bill—Graham Greene's The Quiet American for Vietnam, André Malraux's The Way of Kings for Cambodia, and Christopher Kremmer's Bamboo Palace for Laos. But I'm really stuck on Thailand. There's The Beach by Alex Garland, which I've read and wasn't a huge fan of. Aside from that all I can seem to find are some fairly nasty-looking crime novels. I'd prefer something slightly more on the literary side of things if possible, whether fiction or nonfiction.
Thanks (and kap koon kah).
John Burdett's not your speed, eh? In that case, I recommend Mischa Berlinski's Fieldwork. Set in Chiang Mae and in the jungles of northern Thailand, it tells the story of an anthropologist and a family of American missionaries battling over the hearts and minds of an animist village. No less an authority than Stephen King raved about it in Entertainment Weekly:
This is a great story. It has an exotic locale, mystery, and a narrative voice full of humor and sadness. Reading Fieldwork is like discovering an unpublished Robertson Davies novel; as with Davies, you can't stop reading until midnight (good), and you don't hate yourself in the morning (better).
King didn't like the title ("Berlinski tells us the editor hung that says-nothing title on the book. The guy should have stuck to editing"). As the editor in question, I may be biased—but I promise it's the book you want.
Bon voyage!
Dear Lorin,
Perhaps you can assist me with a delicate matter. Having lately fallen in love, I find I have been inspired to address to my particular Phoebus Apollo a string of flamboyant sonnets, which, although they genuinely come from the heart, are, I suspect, really terrible. True, they scan quite well and, of course rhyme, but in their slightly banal sentimentality they make John Betjeman seem highbrow. So, mindful of the possibility that such a dubious body of work might someday come to light, is it better, do you think, to run the risk of being labeled as an awful poetaster who's heart is in the right place, or disconcerting Phoebus Apollo by engaging in ruthless self-censorship?
Dear Daphne,
Why not take a page (a very famous page) from Sir Philip Sidney?
Loving in truth, and fain in verse my love to show
That she (dear She) might take some pleasure of my pain:
Pleasure might cause her read, reading might make her know,
Knowledge might pity win, and pity grace obtain;
I sought fit words to paint the blackest face of woe,
Studying inventions fine, her wits to entertain:
Oft turning others' leaves, to see if thence would flow
Some fresh and fruitful showers upon my sun-burn'd brain.
But words came halting forth, wanting Invention's stay,
Invention, Nature's child, fled step-dame Study's blows,
And others' feet still seem'd but strangers in my way.
Thus, great with child to speak, and helpless in my throes,
Biting my truant pen, beating myself for spite—
"Fool," said my Muse to me, "look in thy heart and write."
As Sidney writes, a love sonnet needn't be good—just induce a modicum of pity. Your limitations can only be a strength. Read More »
A Week in Culture: Peter Terzian, Part 2
September 30, 2010 | by Peter Terzian
This is the second installment of Terzian's culture diary. Click here to read part 1.
8:00 A.M. Help the convalescent Caleb into a car-service limo to JFK, where he'll board a flight to Rochester. This afternoon he gives his Melville lecture. We'll rendezvous in Albany, where I grew up and where my father still lives, tomorrow: Caleb will fly in from Rochester in the afternoon, I'll drive up from Brooklyn with Toby in the evening. On Saturday morning the three of us will drive to a rented cottage in Deer Isle, Maine, for a belated summer vacation. "Pack sweaters," we are told by just about everyone.
8:57 A.M. Shave with Neil Young's "After the Gold Rush" playing in my head. Sometimes I try to trace a seemingly random song in my head to its origin—a stray thought, a phrase in a book, something overheard—but I fail with this one. I haven't been lying in any burned out basements lately.
9:27 A.M. On the subway, read Sybille Bedford's A Legacy1—I'm toggling back and forth between this and Poser on my commute. There are a lot of animals in Bedford's autobiographical novel, which is set in fin de siècle Berlin, and sometimes she holds back the fact that they're animals. In one section, we're told that a new character, Robert, is in the kitchen breaking plates, and two pages later he climbs into a young girl's lap—Robert, we discover, is actually a monkey. In the passage I read today, the narrator describes the irritable donkey she had as a child who is "fond of music full of brass, and it was for her benefit that the gramophone was set a-trigger at tea-time under the lime tree."
12:58 P.M. Take the subway on my lunch break to Chelsea, to see an exhibit of new work by David Shrigley at Anton Kern Gallery. This is the second time I've seen this show. I went to the opening two weeks ago with a couple of friends, but split off to talk to David, whom I interviewed last year for a travel article about the Glasgow arts scene, then had to rush through the gallery to catch up. David is tall and gentlemanly. The Glasgow trip was my last travel story, and I've been feeling misty-eyed about it lately. I told David that Glasgow was my favorite city, and he said, "Well, that's ridiculous2." Today I want to spend more time with the show, when it's less crowded. The centerpiece is a row of ten pairs of empty black ceramic boots3. A row of his funny drawings lines the walls, and hanging outside the building is a desperate-looking placard that says, "IT'S ALL GOING VERY WELL NO PROBLEM AT ALL." There's also a wall with small, protuberant digits beneath a model of the word God. My favorite thing here, though, might be a sculpture of a rib cage set on the floor in a circle of light from the skylight above, which I find inexplicably moving.
1:34 P.M. Think about how I don't think about Pavement when I'm not reading encomiums to Pavement shows.
7:05 P.M. Get my hair cut at Whistle, a salon in the East Village. "Um … so do you know this actor Andrew Garfield?" Will, my haircutter, does! I come out with a modified, less actorly updo.
9:04 P.M. Caleb calls. The lecture was a success, the people at Geneseo lovely.
10:05 P.M. What to read over a week in Maine? First, the books I'm halfway through: A Legacy, Poser. Then some magazines: the new Paris Review, the new London Review of Books with a piece about creative-writing programs by Elif Batuman I've been hearing about, last week's London Review with the Alan Bennett story I never finished. And now comes the joy of selecting un-begun books from the shelf. I settle upon three short ones, as I had intended: two New York Review Books Classics—James Schuyler's Alfred and Guinevere, one of Caleb's favorites, and Maria Dermoût's The Ten Thousand Things, which my friend Jeff Rotter has praised in a Facebook post; and Colm Tóibín's The Heather Blazing, in a tiny hardcover Bloomsbury Classic edition with a hand-painted cover. I'll bring The Oxford Book of English Verse, of course, for romantic reading over breakfasts studded with wild Maine blueberries. And then the big question: to bring Ulysses or leave it behind? For vacation, shouldn't I pack "pleasure" reading? But Ulysses gives me great pleasure—the kind of pleasure found in difficulty4. But shouldn't I bring books that don't require entire other books of annotation? I end up voting in favor—a quiet Maine cottage seems like the right place for a distraction-free geek-out. Read More »
- Shockingly out of print.
- He had a point—we were at a big, fancy art gallery in New York, after all.
- $28,500 a pair.
- Caleb has no such ambivalence—he's packed The Faerie Queene.

The Shillong Chamber Choir played to a packed-to-capacity Shanmukhananda Hall in Mumbai on Thursday. The performance was one of the best we've checked out in 2011.
On Thursday, April 7, the Shillong Chamber Choir played to a packed-to-capacity Shanmukhananda Hall in Mumbai. The oddly-titled show (The Shillong Date – A Date Down Memory Lane) began at 8.30pm – an hour past the scheduled time, accommodating 90% of the audience who'd arrived just in time.
The two hours that followed were an orchestral journey through Glee clubs and Bollywood-flavoured Disney music into dark, trembling opera pieces. The choir, arranged into four rows and clad in white suits and white dress-shoes, opened with three minutes of intertwining harmonies sprinkled with all the magic of Disney. With an introduction that could've easily soundtracked a pivotal moment of Beauty and the Beast, the beauty of their voices was in stark contrast to the tacky stage design. An awkward arrangement of four tentacular, faux-opera-house arms enclosed the choir from the sides. Behind them was a psychedelic display of the strangest choice of visuals – neon eye-torturing plasma bubbles, and what appeared to be an x-ray traveling up the inside of vertebrae.
After a succinct (not) introduction by emcee 'Musicman' Mihir Joshi, the choir performed a cheerful selection of Queen numbers – 'We Will Rock You' and 'Somebody to Love', accompanied by composer Neil Nongkynrih on the piano, Warren Mendonsa on guitars (welcomed by a section of the audience shouting "Zero!"), the smilingly talented Ustad Vasi Ahmed Khan on tabla, Sanjay Maroo on drums, and fronted by William Basaiawmoit – making for an experience entirely reminiscent of an episode of Glee.
The choir went on to play a set of complicatedly harmonized mashups, beginning with a mix of 'My Heart Will Go On' and 'Kal Ho Na Ho' tinted with glass-shattering high notes, led by 18 year-old prodigal soprano Iba (Ibarisha Lyngdoh), inspiring the first of three standing ovations that night. Nongkynrih explained the choice of songs, "Both songs involve either the boy or girl dying, so it made sense." 'Musicman' Mihir would appear on stage between songs and make contrived, ostentatious attempts to stay relevant ("The Shillong Chamber Choir are now going to sing some loud energetic songs! Our country has so much to celebrate right now, let's hear it for our boys in blue!"). He overzealously tried to engage the audience by taking off from the choir and asking the crowd to sing along, until he was unceremoniously booed off stage by audience members.
After the initial burst of energy, the choir performed a mellow ode to mothers, half in English and half tiptoeing around Hindi. They followed this with the song they performed for Obama – a mashup of 'Ajeeb Daastan Hai Yeh' and 'Yeh Dosti Hum Nahi Todenge', along with forced-but-cute '60s-backup-singer-esque dance moves. After an aggressive Khasi folk opera, seemingly themed around battle cries and an eventual triumph, there was a short intermission.
The unquestionable highlight of the evening was an incredible seven minutes titled 'The Great Indian Train Journey' – a complete simulation of a train journey replete with hawkers and eunuchs, and as Nongkynrih stated – "The only thing we can't impersonate is the smell." With the front row of the choir simulating train-chugging sounds, the back row layered on a chant of "Chai", shortly after which the next row chimed in with "Samosa", and they slowly covered the entire spectrum of train-cuisine from chai/coffee to bread omelette to veg cutlets, to mishti doi. After a chorus of clapping eunuchs, the train journey plummetted into the chaos of the destination, amidst railway announcements and the bustle of fellow passengers.
They announced the next piece was one of the most difficult opera pieces to vocally perform, a segment of German opera The Magic Flute, composed by Mozart. This was Iba's moment to shine – as she filled the auditorium with her awe-inspiring soprano vocals, each bird-like note soaring higher than the previous, rising above anyone's estimation of the range of a human voice. Another well-deserved standing ovation followed, and led into a pleasant standard-choir-favorite with 'Bohemian Rhapsody'. With 'What A Wonderful World' and a saucy rendition of 'Hit The Road Jack', followed by an instrumentalists jam including a machine-gun drum solo by Sanjay Maroo – who will best be remembered for his experiments with the truth, the evening drew to a close – finishing with an operatic Tamil version of the song 'Choti Si Asha' from 1992 film Roja, and waves of thunderous applause.

This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

The 'Cats aren't scheduling cupcakes either in Danny Kaspar's first season. With 4 high major's scheduled (Houston, SMU, Texas & Utah) and a non-conference tournament, Texas State will look to build team chemistry and open some eyes as Sun Belt play starts at the beginning of January. An early tilt with SFA, Kaspar's former school, headlines the home non-conference slate. TXST has been picked to finish 8th in the 10 league team. In it's final season in the Sun Belt, Western Kentucky is picked to win the title again. Assistant Staff
He's assembled a staff that has years of experience and tremendous recruiting ties to the Lone Star State. Assistant Coach Rob Flaska, a holdover from the previous regime brings his 30 years of experience to the bench. Bobcat Fans are welcoming back Terrence Rencher who did a previous 2 year coaching stint with the 'Cats from 2009-2011 and now returns to San Marcos. Wrapping up his trio of assistants is Coach Talvin Hester. Another native Texan with deep ties to the state. All 3 assistants have coached throughout the state and are entrenched in the recruiting scene. It's those ties that have already netted 2 commits, both Texans (Jonathan Wiley & Austin Evans), for the 2014 class. Any coach will tell you that he's only as good as his players. This years 2013-2014 team may not be the tallest, but their is length and athleticism. Our staff has been to multiple practices and the players have fully bought into Coach Kaspar's mentality. It's easier to get points off of defensive stops than to try and outscore your opponent bucket for bucket every single game. Practices are intense and high energy. Two of the biggest leaders so far have been seniors Joel Wright and Phil Hawkins. Leading the way for a new era of basketball. Roster Projected Opening Game Starters:
G Phil Hawkins 6'0" (Sr.)
G Victor Bermudez 6'4" (Jr.)
F Reid Koenen 6'7" (Sr.)
F Joel Wright 6'7" (Sr.)
F Emani Grant 6'8" (So.) Bench
F Kavin Gilder-Tilbury 6'7" (Fr.)
G Jeremiah Moore 6'4" (Jr.)
G Ray Dorsey 6'3" (So.)
F Corey Stern 6'7" (Sr.)
G Wesley Davis 6'3" (Jr.)
G Amari Bryant 6'2" (Fr.)
G Nate Velasco 6'1" (Jr.)
G Naiel Smith 6'5" (Fr.)
F Gordon Ball 6'8" (Sr.)
F Kendell Ramlal 6'7" (Fr.) The starters have at least three players who will put up double digits in the scoring column: Hawkins, Wright and Gant. Joel Wright is a pre-season All Sun Belt nominee and has the potential to put up double-doubles night in and night out. Gant has a nice long frame who can score down low and have an impact defensively on the glass and in the lane. Hawkins can get to the rim with his quickness and score if needed. He is what makes the offense go. Again, there are no players listed taller than 6'8", they do have plenty of length and athleticism with 7 players listed at 6'7" or bigger. Corey Stern, Gordon Ball and Kevin Tilbury have shown that they can be scoring options for Coach Kaspar when needed. The mindset has changed to a defensive one, but the Bobcats do have players who can still torch the nets.

An excerpt from www.HouseOfNames.com archives copyright © 2000 - 2016
The age-old Hebrides islands and the west coast of Scotland are the ancestral home of the Rankin family. Their name comes from the personal name Randolph, with the addition of the diminutive suffix -kin.
The surname Rankin was first found in Ayrshire (Gaelic: Siorrachd Inbhir Àir), formerly a county in the southwestern Strathclyde region of Scotland, that today makes up the Council Areas of South, East, and North Ayrshire. "There is a tradition of descent from one John, son of a knight called Jacob de Rankine, burgomaster of Ghent, who married a daughter of the head of the house of Keith, and became progenitor of the Rankines. " [1] This tradition is difficult to prove but was nevertheless authored by M. H. Rankin, Esq.
Medieval spelling was at best an intuitive process, and translation between Gaelic and English was no more effective. These factors caused an enormous number of spelling variations in Dalriadan names. In fact, it was not uncommon to see a father and son who spelled their name differently. Over the years, Rankin has been spelled Rankin, Ranken, Ranking, Rankene, Rankine and others.
This web page shows only a small excerpt of our Rankin research. Another 261 words (19 lines of text) covering the years 1400, 1600, 1629 and are included under the topic Early Rankin History in all our PDF Extended History products.
Another 33 words (2 lines of text) are included under the topic Early Rankin Notables in all our PDF Extended History products.
Some of the Rankin family moved to Ireland, but this topic is not covered in this excerpt. Another 197 words (14 lines of text) about their life in Ireland is included in all our PDF Extended History products.
Scottish settlers arrived in many of the communities that became the backbones of the United States and Canada. Many stayed, but some headed west for the endless open country of the prairies. In the American War of Independence, many Scots who remained loyal to England re-settled in Canada as United Empire Loyalists. Scots across North America were able to recover much of their lost heritage in the 20th century as Clan societies and highland games sprang up across North America. Early immigration and passenger lists have documented some of the first Rankins to arrive on North American shores:
Rankin Settlers in United States in the 17th Century
Rankin Settlers in United States in the 18th Century
Rankin Settlers in United States in the 19th Century
Rankin Settlers in Canada in the 18th Century
Rankin Settlers in Canada in the 19th Century
Rankin Settlers in Australia in the 19th Century
Rankin Settlers in New Zealand in the 19th Century
The motto was originally a war cry or slogan. Mottoes first began to be shown with arms in the 14th and 15th centuries, but were not in general use until the 17th century. Thus the oldest coats of arms generally do not include a motto. Mottoes seldom form part of the grant of arms: Under most heraldic authorities, a motto is an optional component of the coat of arms, and can be added to or changed at will; many families have chosen not to display a motto.
Motto: Fortiter et recte
Motto Translation: Boldly and rightly.
Other References
The Rankin Family Crest was acquired from the Houseofnames.com archives. The Rankin Family Crest was drawn according to heraldic standards based on published blazons. We generally include the oldest published family crest once associated with each surname.

Dalai Lama of Tibet is coming to Macalester College
Information at this point in time is pretty sparse, as ticketing and other details are still being hammered out. What we do know is that the Dalia Lama will be giving a talk at the college on March 2 titled, "The Nature of Happiness, Fulfillment, and Embodiment

Potty, undies, bed – oh my!
This past weekend was a big one for Ava. We got her her own bed (off Craigslist) and her first big girl underwear! She hasn't really started wearing the undies yet, but, in typical girl fashion, had to try on each and every pair when we first got them home. ;) She has, however, continued to use the potty regularly (when having naked time), and (TMI) I've only had to change one poopy diaper in the past 10 days or so because all of the rest has gone into the potty! Yay!!! Now that the weather is cooling off, I don't feel as good aboutRead More →

'Reality' - Official Theatrical Trailer (HD) : From acclaimed director Matteo Garrone, REALITY is a darkly comic look at Luciano, a charming and affable fishmonger whose unexpected and sudden obsession with being a contestant on the reality show "Big Brother" leads him down a rabbit hole of skewed perceptions and paranoia. So overcome by his dream of being on reality TV, Luciano's own reality begins to spiral out of control, making for one of the most compelling tragicomic character studies since Scorsese's "The King of Comedy."

Small Farms, Externalities, and the Dust Bowl of the 1930s
We provide a new and more complete analysis of the origins of the Dust Bowl of the 1930s, one of the most severe environmental crises in North America in the 20th Century. Severe drought and wind erosion hit the Great Plains in 1930 and lasted through 1940. There were similar droughts in the 1950s and 1970s, but no comparable level of wind erosion. We explain why. The prevalence of small farms in the 1930s limited private solutions for controlling the downwind externalities associated with wind erosion. Drifting sand from unprotected fields damaged neighboring farms. Small farmers cultivated more of their land and were less likely to invest in erosion control than were larger farmers. Soil Conservation Districts, established by government after 1937, helped coordinate erosion control. This unitized' solution for collective action is similar to that used in other natural resource/environmental settings.

Okay, so we could base it around mid-December. You and Denise could plan the first few days--should be value season until the 21st or so--at one of the value resorts, then move to a villa for the remainder of your holiday. That way you would be on site for actual meets, but able to relax and spread out more the balance of your holiday.
See? You just have to think outside the box a wee bit!
And the holidays in Florida just might be enough to convince your young'uns to make the trip with you!

Shutdown Corner
For two decades, 'NFL PrimeTime' changed how we watched the gameFrank Schwab at Shutdown Corner24 mins ago
This offseason, Shutdown Corner will travel down memory lane with a series of stories presenting some interesting and sometimes forgotten stories from the NFL's past. Join us as we relive some of the greatest and craziest moments in the sport's history.
If I was so inclined, within a few minutes I could be watching the entire game broadcast of a 2013 Jacksonville Jaguars-Tennessee Titans game on NFL Game Pass. No commercials.
Before 1987, there was no way to get games or even game highlights on demand. You could maybe catch a play here or there on the local news at night, or you'd find the scores in the newspaper the next day. There's a reason Howard Cosell's highlights on "Monday Night Football" were a phenomenon. Games took place all over the NFL on Sunday, and we were still clamoring to see a few plays from the key games on Monday night.
Jameis Winston seems to be dedicated, has dropped a lot of weightFrank Schwab at Shutdown Corner23 hrs ago
One of the many, many reasons the NFL draft is an inexact science is that teams can't know for sure which players will put in the work to be great. It's hard to predict what a 22-year-old will do once he's given a few million dollars.
It's especially true at quarterback. NFL quarterback isn't a full-time job; it's two full-time jobs. It's simple: Either you immerse yourself in being an NFL quarterback or your odds of succeeding plummet.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Jameis Winston, who came into the draft with plenty of question marks, appears to get it.
NFL offseason stories are always tough to gauge because everyone is in the best shape of his life and everyone is working harder than ever. But every story about Winston has a common theme: He's dedicated to being a great quarterback.
Warren Sapp: Still not a good personShalise Manza Young at Shutdown Corner2 days ago
Warren Sapp hasn't seen a lot of really positive stuff about himself in the news over the last 18 months or so. And today is not the day that's going to change.
Proving yet again that he was a far better player than he is human being, Sapp apparently doesn't want to be honored by the Baltimore Ravens' Timmy Jernigan.
Let us explain.
On Thursday, Jernigan, the third-year Ravens defensive tackle unveiled a new number at the team's OTA session: 99. When reporters asked him about the switch, Jernigan said it was an homage to Sapp.
"I always grew up watching Warren Sapp. I looked up to him. I definitely wanted to model my game after him. It's definitely a number that I wanted coming out of college, but [former Raven] Chris [Canty] had it, so I had to respect the situation until I was able to get it," he explained.
Health issues behind him, Michael Koenen ready to make comebackShalise Manza Young at Shutdown Corner2 days ago
Punter Michael Koenen was not on an NFL team in 2015, for the first time in a decade.
Instead, the former Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Atlanta Falcons specialist was fighting for his health, and watching his weight drop well below his normal playing weight.
Fox Sports' Alex Marvez tells Koenen's story, now a potential comeback tale as Koenen is finally healthy enough to begin pursuing another job in the league.
Things started going downhill for Koenen in 2014, when he believes he drank tainted sports water. He began dealing with negative effects like nausea, body aches and other flu-like symptoms. The water was recalled, and Koenen stopped drinking it, but the damage was done.
The Buccaneers cut him after his subpar season, with two years remaining on the six-year, $19.5 million free agent contract he'd signed in 2011.
Titletown? Not in the '70s and '80s. The Packers were a total messFrank Schwab at Shutdown Corner3 days ago
This offseason, Shutdown Corner will travel down memory lane with a series of stories presenting some interesting and sometimes forgotten stories from the NFL's past. Join us as we relive some of the greatest and craziest moments in the sport's history.
Outside of Illinois and Minnesota, there's a romanticism attached to the Green Bay Packers and the town they play in.
NFL fans talk about making a one-time pilgrimage to visit Lambeau Field. You'd have a hard time finding a story ranking NFL stadiums that doesn't have Lambeau at No. 1. There's an amazement over Green Bay, a place with a population barely above 100,000 that still fills more than 81,000 seats for every home game. There's something cool about the fans owning the team and about the old-school nature of the franchise itself — the Packers were born in 1919, one year before the NFL started. The Packers should have never survived as a pro sports franchise, and that's what makes the story great.
Aaron Rodgers thinks Randall Cobb being mic'ed up punctured lungEric Edholm at Shutdown Corner3 days ago
Everyone seems to love when NFL players are mic'ed up. Except perhaps NFL players themselves.
Well, strike that — many players appear to love the attention it brings, but what about injury? Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers believes that his top receiver last season, Randall Cobb, suffered a punctured lung in the playoff loss to the Arizona Cardinals because of the microphone pack that's strapped to NFL players when they're mic'ed.
[Yahoo Fantasy Football is open for the 2016 season. Sign up now]
Rodgers joined former teammate A.J. Hawk's podcast and made it clear he thinks the cumbersome mic pack was the blame when Cobb fell down on top of it after making a spectacular catch — one that ultimately didn't count. Adding injury to insult and all that ...
Antonio Brown says 'Dancing' helped his footworkShalise Manza Young at Shutdown Corner3 days ago
Over the last two seasons, Pittsburgh Steelers receiver Antonio Brown has totaled an NFL-high 265 catches for 3,532 yards and 23 touchdowns; he's been an All-Pro pick both years.
And on Thursday, he said he might be even better.
The 27-year-old is just coming off a successful run on "Dancing With the Stars," where he and partner Sharna Burgess were one of the final five couples, and voted off in the semifinals. The duo spent hours preparing for their performances on the show, and Brown learned dances like the quickstep, rumba, foxtrot, tango and Viennese waltz, all of which may help him be a better player.
He told NFL Network the experience helps his footwork and hip placement.
"I don't want to say it made me faster, but I feel like it has helped me a lot with my 'shock absorbers'," he said. "I've been able to drop my hips and get on the ball of my foot."
Rob Ryan calls his last two years in New Orleans a 'waste of time'Jay Busbee at Shutdown Corner3 days ago
You knew when Rob and Rex Ryan reunited on the sideline in Buffalo this yearthat there'd be some saltiness thrown in all directions. It has begun, with Rob cutting loose on his former employer in The MMQB.
Rob Ryan served as defensive coordinator in New Orleans for parts of three seasons before he was fired 10 games into the 2015 season. And, according to Ryan, only one of those three years reflects the kind of coach he is.
"There are two years that don't have my signature on them, and it's the last two years in New Orleans," Ryan said. "And that's just the truth."
Ryan took over in 2013 for a team that had ranked last in yards allowed and immediately vaulted the Saints to fourth in that category. The team went 11-5 and reached the playoffs. But in 2014 and 2015, the team sank back down into the cellar, ranking 31st in points allowed both years.
Report: ESPN's Chris Berman will retire following 2016 NFL seasonEric Edholm at Shutdown Corner3 days ago
It's common for this generation of sports fan, and especially those who follow the NFL closely, to pan the work of ESPN's Chris Berman and dismiss him as a has-been who is past his prime.
Those folks likely will celebrate the news that Berman, reported by The Big Lead, will retire after the 2016 NFL season. The rest of us will tip our caps at a true giant in the industry who changed the way the game was presented to fans everywhere.
Berman, 61, joined the network in 1979, shortly after it started, having gone to school nearby at Brown and broadcasted in nearby Hartford, Conn. previously. And he's been at ESPN ever since, the longest-tenured on-air talent there along with Bob Ley.
Ravens brought in former star Ray Rice to speak to team's rookiesFrank Schwab at Shutdown Corner3 days ago
The Baltimore Ravens supported Ray Rice after his domestic violence incident in Atlantic City two years ago, until the infamous video of Rice punching his then-fiancee (now his wife) was published. Then the team cut him.
It seemed like the team cut him somewhat reluctantly, however, because the pressure was too great to keep him. An ESPN report said Ravens owner Steve Bisciotti texted Rice after he was cut, telling Rice he could have a job with the team "helping young guys getting acclimated to the league."
And even though the entire ordeal was a stain on Rice, the Ravens and the NFL, less than two years after the video surfaced and Rice was cut, the team brought Rice back to talk to its rookies.

Final Fantasy XIII
Question from Ambrosio1194
Can you use your save file in another ps3?
I just bought the Limited Lightning edition PS3 and I wish to continue my game (Chapter 12) in this PS3. Is it possible? I mean I only use 1 PSN account.
6 years ago
Yes, as long as you're logged into the same PSN account on both systems, you'll be able to copy the file and play it on either.
6 years ago
Having the same PSN account only matters if you want to keep the same trophies. But, you can copy the save file from any account and play as long as they're from an FFXIII game of the same region (US, UK, JP).
Thus, there is a "Saves" section for the PS3 version here at GameFaqs for people to copy other people's saves and play them. You'll need a USB flash drive and a copy of the save file from your own PS3 to merge the contents together. It'll take some time figuring out just how to do this on your first time since GameFaqs doen'st provide any instructions for noobs.
6 years ago
Yahh you can if you have a usb drive and copy the save file to it then transfer it to anothr ps3

"Astana - Zhana Kala" Top 5 Page for this destination Astana by tashka
Astana Travel Guide: 38 reviews and 67 photos
I had only a couple of days to see Astana, and since it was a business trip, I was pretty busy. And still I was very impressed!
I had been to other cities of Kazakhstan and was happy to finally visit the new capital of the country.
Originally it was a fortress called Ishim, which was built in 1824. Later it grew into the town of Akmolinsk. During the Soviet period, in 1961 it was renamed Tselinograd. During those years the Soviet Union had the idea of developing the virgin lands of Kazakhstan and Tselinograd became the capital of the virgin lands region. In 1991, after the end of the Soviet era, Kazakhstan gained its independence, and the city was renamed into Aqmola. The capital of the new Republic of Kazakhstan was Almaty. In 1997 President Nazarbayev, the first and so far the only President of Kazakhstan, made a decision to move the capital to Aqmola renaming it into Astana.
The President and Parliament aproved the master plan of the city's development. In order to boost investments in the construction of Zhana Kala (the New City) the area of construction was announced to be a free economic zone.
Since that time the city has been developing at a very fast rate with huge amounts of investments flowing into it.
If you visit the city once every six months, each time you will be surprised to see more of new magnificent buildings, which are changing the face of the city, but not spoiling it, since everything is in accordance with the master plan.
- In a nutshell:Beautiful modern city developing quickly

They are 27-year-old Ashley Nicole Rutledge and her 3-year-old daughter, Shaila Mackenzie Rutledge.
The family had just moved to Meridian from Georgia and had only been in town 2 days.
Officials say Rutledge's husband is now in stable condition at a Georgia burn center, but their 5-year-old son is still in critical condition there.
Fire marshal, Jason Collier, says smoke detectors would have made all the difference.
"I think smoke detectors would have made a difference," said Collier. "It's a very sad situation, but smoke detectors were not in use in this house and they would have made a difference in this case. Have smoke detectors and check the batteries. We say to do so when the time changes, to change the batteries in your smoke detectors, this makes it even more real and important."
The fire is believed to be accidental but the cause is still undetermined.
