I bought this for my cat because I'm planning to go out of town. It was so cheap that I thought I could give it a try and if I don't like it, I can buy new one. I ended up liking it a lot. Tho it looks cheap, it's really worth the money. It lasts about 3-4 days, so I use the water feeder regularly too.

Hopefully, that will slap this slumlord with fines to get the rentals up to healthy living conditions. When questioned him about the problems he told me "to f**k him". He will not get any rent from a couple of tenants until the place is safe to live in. All he does then is evict tenants. He never fixes ANY of the health issues going on in his rentals. There are 2 disabled people in one apartment unit alone. People with both physical and internal health disabilities. He treats them like dollar signs and not people. I sure hope the health department shuts down his buildings until they are brought up to code. I for 1 will NOT pay him a penny more so I can save the cash to move out into a healthy environment.

The Monroe County Correctional Facility was partially in the dark Tuesday morning while crews worked on its generator.
Visitors were not permitted to put money into inmates' commissary accounts.
"As you know, our backup generator isn't very powerful, so we can't run everything when we're on backup," Chief Clerk and Administrator Greg Christine said.
The work was expected to be completed Tuesday.

30 Years Ago: Billy Joel Emerges From a Transitional Period With 'The Bridge'
Billy Joel began work on 'The Bridge' riding a professional high, all while contemplating whether he even wanted to continue his career.
Billy Joel began work on 'The Bridge' riding a professional high, all while contemplating whether he even wanted to continue his career.
Billy Joel sort-of weighed in on Donald Trump's presidential campaign this weekend.
Anyone who saw Billy Joel's name on the guest list for last night's episode of The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon had to expect a few memorable musical moments.
Just a few weeks after tying the knot in a surprise ceremony, newlyweds Billy and Alexis Joel have announced the birth of their daughter, Della Rose.
One Long Island icon bade farewell to another last night, when Billy Joel closed out Nassau Coliseum with a rollicking set that lasted more than three hours and included special guest Paul Simon.
Ultimate Classic Rock ranks Billy Joel albums, from worst to best.
Don Henley and Garth Brooks were among the artists who helped pay tribute to Billy Joel, who was one of five performers to receive the prestigious Kennedy Center Honor in 2013. The gala, which took place on Dec. 8, was televised on CBS last night.
Billy Joel will be joining hockey's Rangers and basketball's Knicks and Liberty as a permanent franchise resident of New York City's Madison Square Garden. The rock legend will perform one show a month at the famed venue for "as long as there is demand."
It's been a while since Billy Joel gave his fans any really big news to look forward to, but it looks like he might have something major up his sleeve for 2014.
The Gap's new ad campaign is all about going back to your roots, so it's only fitting that for a pair of new ads, they sent two young musicians back to their own.
Two classic rockers will receive 2013 Kennedy Center Honors in Washington D.C. this December. Carlos Santana and Billy Joel were named as part of the group of five new honorees.
Classic rockers of all ages, please allow me to take you back to the year 1989, then even further back from there.
When Billy Joel released "We Didn't Start The Fire", Blender magazine put the tune at number 41 of the 50 worst songs ever, saying the song "resembles a term paper scribbled the night before it's due."

Boiling noodles is a great way to make a delicious pasta dish or express disdain for a kindergartner's art project. Demonstrate fine taste with this Groupon.
Choose Between Two Options
- $13 for $22 worth of Italian cuisine for two, valid for dine-in lunch only
- $26 for $40 worth of Italian cuisine for two, valid for dine-in dinner only
- See the lunch and dinner menus.
At Argia's, chef Ryan Baldini and proprietors Pragun and Salina Rana strike a balance between serving fine northern Italian cuisine and fostering a laid-back dining atmosphere. Many of Ryan's dishes, such as his grilled beef tenderloin and range of handmade pastas, come in solo portions or shareable famiglia servings that sate larger parties. For a taste of the kitchen's signature dish, guests can pry open a Prince Edward Island mussel—shipped to the restaurant daily—and sop up its juices with housemade bread still warm from the oven or a pet sea sponge in need of a soak. Outside, the clinking of wineglasses rings out across a patio enclosed by fragrant herbs; inside, a rustic Sienese-style mural matched with eye-catching frescoes conjures an air of the Italian countryside.

Cubs Top Angels at Diablo Park
Elliot Soto tripled, singled, walked, and scored a run, and Eloy Jimenez singled twice, scored a run, and drove-in another, leading the Cubs to a 9-5 victory over the Angels in Cactus League Extended Spring Training action this morning at Diablo Park Field #7 in Tempe, AZ.
Raul Linares reached base four times (RBI triple, two singles, and a walk) for the Angels.
In 18 Cactus League Extended Spring Training games (72 PA), Eloy Jimenez is hitting 221/250/279, with a team-leading nine RBI, plus four doubles and 3/19 BB/K. He has yet to homer in a Cactus League EXST game, although he has in Intrasquad games.
Unlike the other top international prospect signed by the Cubs in 2013 (SS Gleyber Torres), Jimenez has no chance to make the Boise Hawks Opening Day roster, but he does stand a good chance to be in the AZL Cubs Opening Day lineup next month.
Here is the abridged box score from today's game (Cubs players only):
1a. Rashad Crawford, CF: 1-3 (1-3, 1B, K, R, SB)
1b. Charcer Burks, CF: 0-1 (BB, F-9, R)
2. Zak Blair, 2B: 0-3 (2-3, L-8, BB, BB, K, 2 R, RBI)
3a. Kevin Brown, LF: 0-2 (1-3, E-7)
3b. Ricardo Marcano, LF: 1-2 (BB, 1B, F-7, R, RBI)
4. Eloy Jimenez, DH #1: 2-5 (1B, F-9, 1B, K, K, R, RBI, CS)
5. Rony Rodriguez, 1B: 0-1 (P-2, BB, F-7 SF, BB, R, 2 RBI)
6. Shamil Ubiera, RF: 1-4 (K, F-7, 2B, 4-3, 2 RBI)
7a. Varonex Cuevas, SS: 0-1 (E-9, CS)
7b. Bryant Flete, SS: 0-1 (BB, F-8, HBP)
8. Erick Castillo, C: 0-4 (4-3, P-4, K, K)
9. Adonis Paula, 3B: 0-3 (K, BB, E-4, 5-3, R)
10. Elliot Soto, DH #2: 2-3 (L-6, BB, 1B, 3B, R)
1. Trevor Graham: 4.0 IP, 5 H,1 R (1 ER), 0 BB, 6 K, 1 WP, 4/1 GO/FO, 68 pitches (45 strikes)
2. Victor Salazar: 2.0 IP, 2 H, 2 R (2 ER), 3 BB, 1 K, 1/3 GO/FO, 48 pitches (22 strikes)
3. Yomar Morel: 3.0 IP, 4 H, 2 R (2 ER), 0 BB, 1 K, 1 WP, 2/6 GO/FO, 51 pitches (34 strikes)
3B Adonis Paula - E-5 (fielding error allowed batter to reach base safely)
Erick Castillo: 1-1 CS, 1 PB
RF Shamil Ubiera - runner thrown out 9-4-2 trying to score from 1st base on a double

Try Craigslist. Look at the ads from sellers that aren't brokers. Also post an ad saying you want tix but don't want to spend a shitload. You'll get people emailing you with "bargains" (i.e., not bargains) but sometimes they just want to get rid of the tickets. You can also maybe find some other hot deals, if you know what I mean.

Today's Olt Watch: I only saw
Today's Olt Watch: I only saw one AB, the walk, and that was a nice At bat. They were trying to get him to fish for stuff low and away and he wouldn't bite. Obviously it would have been better if he had connected on that one he took a swing at that was right down the pipe, and he did leave three on base. But with Baker batting behind him, then SureOut replacing Baker, he wasn't gonna see much in that AB with men on.
with tonight's 0-4 (2Ks)..
with tonight's 0-4 (2Ks)...baez's OPS drops sub-.500.
4 hits in his last 10 games/40ab (3 came in 1 game)...20Ks...4bb...
From the tweet box: "Soler
From the tweet box: "Soler made a great catch to take away an extra base hit in the 4th then seemed bothered by the Hamstring. He then left the game."
Seriously? Did they run any medicals on this guy before they signed him?
And...do we have a Back-Up
And...do we have a Back-Up Catcher??
Considering Baker has the lowest BA in baseball, whay are the TheoJed "stashing" the 26 year old, lefty-hitting Rafael Lopez catcher in AA?
Are we loaded with catching prospects in Iowa?
I mean when else are you going to give guys a shot other than when you are 26, having a nice year at your competitive level, and your parent team is the worst in the NL?
Well, Lopez has had a good
Well, Lopez has had a good 100 ABs in AA. Prior to that he hit .247 in a full season at AA last year, .269 in A+ and .265 in A the year before. Moving people without stellar track records up to the majors after a hot streak of 6 weeks in AA is probably not the best idea. You would have to add him to the 40-man, start burning service time, he'd get infrequent ABs because he would be a back-up, and he'd be overwhelmed by big league pitching. I doubt he has much of a career shot anyway, but you'd kill any he does have.
I'd actually look at it the opposite way. If the Cubs were in a pennant chase and even a slight upgrade over Baker at the back-up catching position might lead to a win or two more, then you think about making changes. But the Cubs are the worst team in the NL, so why stunt anyone's development in the minor leagues and burn service time in hopes of improving from very very shitty to just very shitty? At this point, the only call-ups should be guys who have proven themselves over an extended period at high levels in the minors and can get a month or two of major league experience under their belts leading into next year.
...why stunt anyone's
...why stunt anyone's development in the minor leagues and burn service time in hopes of improving from very very shitty to just very shitty?
I suppose you are right. There is not much upside from "very, very shitty", to just plain "very shitty".
If they have control over him, even at his "advanced age", it probably is best as you say.
He may just run out of time, however, unless he breaks free. Catcher's position mortality rate peaks at 29-31.
Well, there's also the
Well, there's also the consideration that since the guy is 26, he's probably a 4A guy anyway, so service time shouldn't mean a thing. And as a guy on the roster, he probably can't do worse than the guy in there now. Bring him up.
That's an impressive list, AZ
That's an impressive list, AZ. However, wondering how potential brush-fire postponements will affect future games out there. In Florida it just rains every day for an hour...

Suggested that myself a few days ago. With McCann signed, Sanchez should be available, especially with another good catching prospect behind him in the Yankees system. Not sure if the arms are premium enough. I guess it depends on if you believe Welington Castillo is a long term solution or not.

The fallout continues from MLB Network analyst Mitch Williams's meltdown at a Ripken Baseball youth tournament this past weekend, as parents and coaches tell Deadspin that "The Wild Thing" called one child "a pussy" while ordering one of his own 10-year-old players to hit the opposing pitcher with a beanball.

The ugliest of the years because there is some talent in the field Rizzo/Castro/Pitchers and then a rotating cast of weirdness that I assume 2.) is coming from the front office. I'm not sure Mr Happy is a good or bad manager, I know he is not a great orator, but I'm starting to think his lineup choices are determined with pressure from the front office and that after the trade deadline we'll see the beginning of the true youth movement.
if his lineup is formed by
if his lineup is formed by the front office he would be an even worse manager than he's showing and chances are his locker room would be in revolt. the last thing players want to hear is a bunch of guys in suits are micro-managing their day-to-day playing time.
you gotta have a "paid off" type setup like the yanks for stuff like this to go down...a team where you understand going into it that you're a paid gunman doing what your "boss's boss" wants you to do. since the elder steiny died this is less of an issue for them, though.

Classic ending, about 12:11 AM, CST. 5 hours, 3 minutes. Both teams have bases loaded, no out situations in the last inning.
Magic #19.
Last man on the bench, Montero gets it done.
This fucking game
Baez lucky to not have hurt his hand with headfirst slide on play at plate in 12th inning.
Maddon's master plan to challenge his offense to improve on coming from behind late in games is working amazingly.
Everyone remember Starlin Castro dropping or misplaying just about every ball near second base that involved a tag?
Javier Baez is the opposite of that.
on the wild pitch thing, did they really call that a wild pitch on Jansen that Heyward scored on Friday? If so, I don't know what a passed ball is anymore.
Let's see -- up 3-0, at home, Jake on the mound annnnd....compare and contrast 2015 to 2016. Bleh.

Now, going back over my bank records. This company, PMIdentity 888-840-6301 is listed on my bank statement for charging me $19.95 for each month since I used the Intelisius service. Two hours of my pay each month being stolen from me!
I called PMIdentity right away, I spoke to the first person Employee ID # 26090 who I threatened I was calling the FBI to, who transferred me to the Manager Omar, ID# 16002. He assured me that the membership they created for me would be cancelled and I would be refunded back my 3 debits of $19.95. This could take up to 5 days. I also then received an email confirmation from email@example.com confirming my cancellation.
Low and behold, first thing I did this morning was check my bank account, at 10:00 pm last night the 14th of August the evening after cancelling I am charged again another $19.95.
Well, this time I called the FBI first, report my complaint with a Complaint Agent and followed that by calling PM Identity again. In a very calm and as nice as pie voice, I asked them why they charged me again after the cancellation of my fraudulent account. I was transferred to The Manager Scott ID# 14144. He said oh, sorry, we are having issues with our credit department and we are very sorry, you should not have been charged and are you sure it's not a credit. Um. I can read, it says Debit - $19.95. Well, I'm sorry mam, Please wait 5 days to see your credits show up on your account.
I said, okay, I will do that. I feel it only fitting of my to let you know, I have already this morning reported your company to the FBI and will be looking for my refunds! He again said, my Name is Scott and my ID# is: 14144.
We shall see what happens next. By the way, since these charges took place on my debit master card, there is little the bank can do. I am filing disputes though and have changed all my account numbers.

NBA reinstates suspended referee Joey Crawford
NEW YORK (TICKER) —The NBA on Monday reinstated referee Joey Crawford, who had been suspended indefinitely by the league this past spring.
Monday's announcement came exactly five months after Crawford was suspended for his "improper conduct and lack of professionalism" during a game between the San Antonio Spurs and Dallas Mavericks on April 15.
In the contest, Crawford assessed two technical fouls on Spurs superstar center Tim Duncan during a 76-second span of the third quarter.
NBA commissioner David Stern lowered the boom on Crawford two days later, suspending the 31-year veteran for the remainder of the season - including the NBA Playoffs and Finals.
However, Stern said in a statement Monday that Crawford is ready to return to the game.
"Based on my meeting with Joey Crawford, his commitment to an ongoing counseling program and a favorable professional evaluation that was performed at my direction, I am satisfied that Joey understands the standards of game management and professionalism the NBA expects from him and that he will be able to conduct himself in accordance with those standards," Stern said.
During his stellar career, Crawford's 266 playoff and 38 Finals games are the most among active officials. He also is one five officials to have worked at least 2,000 regular-season games.

and psyllium fibre is just amazing. I take about 5 grams 3 times a day, and it seems to help keep symptoms under control and make things run as smooth as silk. This is the cheapest I've found, and it's just pure psyllium powder, no additives. It doesn't mix nearly as smoothly as Metamucil though, so if you have a strong gag reflex or you have to give it to kids, you might have to spend a lot of time stirring, put it in a blender or just stick to Metamucil.

Very fine psyllium!

" Tsar Ivan the Terrible in painting" Aleksandrov Things to Do Tip by Kuznetsov_Sergey
Aleksandrov Things to Do: 14 reviews and 53 photos
A chamber exhibition "Tsar Ivan the Terrible in painting" from the collection of the museum is situated in palace of the beginning of the XVI-th century which had been probably "money storage" of tsar court.
The exhibition reflects impressions of painters of different periods (from XVII century up to our days) of one of the most outstanding Russian tsars. A gallery is very different: Ivan the Wise, Ivan the Imperious, Ivan the Terrible. On the exhibition there is Ivan the Terrible in paintings from a collection of the museum "Alexandrovskaya Sloboda".
The dramatic events of that epoch happened in the settlement: Ivan the Terrible killed his heir, Tsarevitch Ivan. It was imprinted by I.E.Repin (the painting "Ivan the Terrible and his son").

TCR Friday Notes
- A couple of quick site modifications with more soon to come. I added a "module" as Drupal calls them, that will automatically fill in the subject line for users when they comment. When you first hit the comment button, it will add "Re: {Title of Post}. If you hit reply to a comment, it will fill-in the subject line with the subject of the comment you are replying to. You can go in and edit them if you wish. If you are replying to someone's comment though, we do ask that you just leave the default because it makes life a lot easier for those viewing comments in the "flat" modes.
- The next tweak is the signature module. It has a few options - the most important is that it will stylize the signature automatically (no more broken tag troubles hopefully). Currently it's set-up to have a small line break and italicize it:
Welcome to The New Cub Reporter!
Since the system is doing all the formatting now, I do ask that if you did add a signature, to go in and remove any tags or linebreaks (directly the opposite of what I asked yesterday). I simply typed in: Welcome to the New Cub Reporter! in my signature box without any formatting and what you see above is what is pumped out.
Also, if you change your signature or add one, it will change the signature on all your old comments as well.
Next, your signature will no longer show up in the comment box and you won't have to type around it. If you added a signature to your account, it will automatically attach it to the end of your posts now.
The last note is that after I installed the module, it did take everyone who had a signature yesterday and duplicated them in your comments. An unfortunate side-effect, but everything should be working normally from here on.
- The next tweak is I modified some of the HTML tags you can use in the comments now. It should display the full list at the bottom of the comments, but here they are just in case:

. Let me know if you'd like to add anything else.
- You may have noticed the "Latest Results" block in the upper right. I'm going to spruce up the flag a little, but you get the latest results and the score should always link to its boxscore. Also don't forget the day of game weather on the left, near the bottom of the page.
- Speaking of yesterday's game, I thought pitchers were suppose to be ahead of hitters at this point? Heckuva day for Pie, Godenot and Theriot and a nice start for Fukudome. Save them runs for the Brewers on Opening Day!
- With all the hoopla surrounding the new site yesterday, you may have missed my post rounding up the offseason prospect lists. Be sure to check it out. On a related note, Steve Holley of Inside the Ivy is willing to do another Q&A with us this year. I was hoping to get more reader questions this time around, so drop me a note or place it in the comments if you have something to ask.
- A few more spots are still open for our second MLB Open fantasy league. Reader Big Lowitzki is going to run commish on it, but you can email me if you wish to join. I don't believe the draft time has been set yet.
Enjoy the weekend....
Re: TCR Friday Notes
Great changes. Thanks, Rob.
Re: TCR Friday Notes
Those changes make things a bit better. I still miss the numbers on the posts though, but I guess they're not needed so much now. Do you plan to keep the comments embedded in the main post like this or go back to the ole pop-up window like before?
Re: TCR Friday Notes

real shame I missed this week's episode of The Crunch Reporter.
It's highly unusual.
It does matter a little.
It matters much less than you think.
four winds field is awesome. it's crazy how minor league parks have "grown up" since the 80s/90s and that park was one of the late-80s models that showed a low-capacity ballpark could look like you're at something other than a highschool baseball game.
On another topic....I returned to South Bend last night for the 2nd time this season (still haven't tried either the deep-fried mac & cheese sandwich nor "The Porknado", as the drive home is over an hour and that could get ugly), and was pleasantly surprised to find D. Underwood pitching in a rehab start. He looked good -- although, to be fair, these are low-A hitters -- fastball consistently at 94-95 (if the SB scoreboard is to be believed -- several pitches were clocked in the 30s...) and with good location.
he gains nothing, no advantage, no saving of resources, nothing...there is not a cost/benefit tradeoff...him letting the running game go on around him for others to control isn't gaining him an advantage elsewhere. it's putting him at a disadvantage even if it's not cashed in with a run.
And out of respect for the rest of TCR, I'm done on this. I'm sure I'm not the only one in the other camp, but time to let it go. (Until the next Lester start. I kid.)
He is putting himself at a disadvanage. But how much of one relative to the rest of his game? He's not Justin Germano -- he's inarguably one of the best SPs in baseball, issue or not. It would be more of thing to discuss ad nauseum if it constantly caused him to give up runs and lose games. But it doesn't.

Current Internships
These are some of the most interesting and promising internships known to us this spring. We know a lot about them and can recommend them as being particularly appropriate for Book Studies concentrators. There are other book-related summer interships in the database of the Lazarus Center for Career Development, so if you can't find anything below, visit the Lazarus Center's website. In the meantime, if you have any questions contact Martin Antonetti.
Historic Deerfield Library
The focus of this internship is transcribing hand-written journals kept by Epaphras Hoyt (1765-1850) of Deerfield, Massachusetts, between 1820 and 1840. Hoyt was an avid reader and keen observer of the times. His detailed journals provide an unprecedented account of local, regional, and national events from the perspective of a highly literate and intellectually curious antiquarian and historian in rural Massachusetts.
Suitable candidates should have a knowledge of the proper handling of manuscript materials, and the ability to read 19th -century script. The intern will work under the supervision of the museum's librarian and associate librarian.
Historic Deerfield is a museum of New England history and culture located in a beautiful 350-year-old village just 15 minutes north of Northampton. The museum's library collects primary and secondary sources on material culture, decorative arts, and the history of the Connecticut River Valley.
For further information contact David Bosse, the Librarian of the Historic Deerfield Library, at email@example.com.
Pine Needles Foundation
The Pine Needles Foundation of New York is offering opportunities for exceptional summer internships at two scholarly websites. In both cases interns will be provided ample training to carry out the tasks asked of them. By the end of the internship participants will have gained important professional experience—and will also have the satisfaction of knowing that their work has made a contribution to the world of bibliography.
1] The Manuscript Cookbook Survey website
The principal mission of this project is to compile a database of pre-1865 English-language cookbooks in the collections of U.S. libraries, museums, historical societies, and historic sites. In addition to the database, which is the most "library-like" component of this project, the site also includes a scholarly blog on diverse topics of culinary history, historical recipes adapted for the modern kitchen, general essays on manuscript cookbooks, and a glossary of historical culinary terms.
Interns' primary responsibility will be to gather information on individual manuscript cookbooks, which will facilitate us in writing accurate, detailed, engaging summaries of the cookbooks for the database. This information will include: indications of authorship and date and place of composition; the number of authors (assessed via handwriting); the approximate number of written pages; the balance of culinary versus household or medical recipes; any predominant types of culinary recipes (meats, pies, sweets, etc.); any recipes attributed to specific individuals, particularly known persons; any recipes whose titles connect them to specific places or events; any non-recipe material that is of culinary interest, such as menus or farm records; any advice or observations that appear to be grounded in the author's personal experience and expressed in her own words. Steve Schmidt, co-creator of the website and its principal researcher and writer, will be available via email to answer questions, discuss problems, and examine photos of manuscript material.
Interns who are able to travel have an opportunity to do onsite research (in New York, Virginia, Cornell, or elsewhere, as convenient) on significant collections that are too briefly described in the institution's catalog records to allow us to draft summaries. Individual items in these collections are often buried in family papers and may require considerable sleuthing. Interns who are not able to travel will gather information online, working with institution catalog records that are reasonably complete and supplementing the catalog material, when necessary, with research in other online sources. Non-traveling interns can also help us to discover additional manuscript cookbooks by searching online catalogs and by querying historical societies and sites whose materials are not available online.
Training sessions at the New York Academy of Medicine library or the New York Historical Society library will prepare interns for these tasks. Since a few manuscript cookbooks may have been written before 1650, an interest in paleography is useful.
Also, we are starting to gather materials for a searchable "image database" to the website. We want to add images of kitchen utensils starting with the holdings of Colonial Williamsburg, the Smithsonian Institution, Johnson and Wales University, and the New York Historical Society. Interns interested in material culture could start the process of gathering this informationby looking at photographs of the institution's images and start compiling a museum type database.
2] The Comedias Sueltas website
The aim of this website is to survey collections ofcomedias sueltasheld in US academic and research libraries. [Comedias sueltasare Spanish Golden Age plays printed mostly in the 18th century and are a wonderful source for studying the history of printing and typography in Spain. Smith owns some 900 of them and you can see them in our Mortimer Rare Book Room.] The current version of the website is not quite ready for public viewing, but will be well before summer. Knowledge of Spanish language is indispensable; familiarity with Spanish Golden Age literature is desirable.
The intern(s) would work on many aspects of building the vast database (eventually to grow to 25,000+/- items) that will be the heart of this website.
Much of the work this summer would be at the Hispanic Society of America in New York City, checking items against the records, proofreading items, linking scanned images with records, etc.
Part of the website that is in the planning stages, but will be in preliminary phase by this summer, is an "image database" of typographic devices. This would mean selecting and sorting a large number of decorative metal type (as well as some woodblock type) and devising a cataloging system for them, maybe copying a system that already exists, maybe designing a new one. This may appeal to student(s) with an art history interest coupled with printing history interests.[Submitted by Szilvia Szmuk-Tanenbaum, February 2016]
University of Pennsylvania Press, Philadelphia
The Internship Program at Penn Press is meant for undergraduate students and others seeking to explore the field of academic publishing. Running for ten weeks our summer program encompasses the entire publishing process, from manuscript proposal to bound book.
The internship is structured but not inflexible, and all Press departments are represented in the program: Acquisitions, Editing & Production (which includes design), Marketing, and Business & Administration. Each intern will be assigned to one or two departments depending on availability and the intern's preference. Interns assigned to one Press department will spend the entire length of the program in that department, while those assigned to two will spend five weeks in each.

Library of Congress:
Junior Fellow Summer Intern
The general focus of the Junior Fellows Program is on increasing access to the collections and promoting an awareness of the Library's copyright, legal and special collections and digital initiatives. Interns help the Library expose unprocessed collections, participate in digital projects, provide additional services to Congress and the public, and make our collections more immediately accessible to scholars. Interns work under the direction of Library curators and specialists in various divisions. In the past, summer interns have identified hundreds of historical, literary, artistic, cinematic and musical gems representing rich cultural, creative, and intellectual resources. United States citizens currently enrolled in undergraduate or graduate school are invited to apply for consideration as a Junior Fellow. In this link scroll down to the Rare Books and Special Collections listing: that's where the BKX concentration has the best contacts for you.
Booklyn, New York
Booklyn's mission is to promote artist books as an art form and an educational resource, to provide the general public and academic institutions with services and programming involving contemporary artist books, and to assist artists in exhibiting, distributing and publishing artist books.
Interns at Booklyn are involved with all aspects of the administration of an artist-run non-profit art organization. Specific activities, supervised by Booklyn staff, fall into the following categories:
Cataloging, Shipping, Curatorial Practice, Education, Development, Art Publication Production, & Arts Administration
Booklyn encourages interns to take on projects that align with their interests. All internships are currently unpaid. However, interns may use Booklyn's studio equipment and space for personal projects. For more information, contact Maya Taylor at email@example.com. Intern applications are evaluated on a rolling basis. Booklyn is, of course, based in Brooklyn.
Siglio Press, Los Angeles
Siglio is an independent press in Los Angeles dedicated to publishing uncommon books that live at the intersection of art and literature. Siglio books defy categorization and ignite conversation: they are cross-disciplinary, hybrid works that subvert paradigms, reveal unexpected connections, rethink narrative forms, and thoroughly engage a reader's imagination and intellect. We believe that challenging work can be immensely appealing: our books are beautiful, affordable, and as much a pleasure to touch and hold as they are to read.
Depending on the timing and duration of the internship, students will have the opportunity to be intimately involved with or closely observe almost all aspects of independent publishing: editorial, production, marketing, distribution/sales. There is no photocopy machine, so be assured you will not be spending you day in front of it, nor will you be answering phones. In short, the intern will be directly assisting the publisher in virtually every endeavor. Additionally, a long-term project for each intern will be fashioned according to both the intern's interests and the needs of the press. It is an excellent opportunity to see a small, publishing house in action, gain first-hand experience, as well as hone various skills that will be useful in a variety fields.
Tasks may include:
reading submissions, editorial research, copy-editing, proofing
production tasks such as cataloguing and material organization
gathering and managing information for a variety of databases
assisting with marketing strategies, mailings, and materials
researching, coordinating information, and conducting some maintenance for the website and other internet/social media presences (plus, any necessary, mundane activities including various errands).
Keen interest in literature and visual arts; knowledge of 20th century avant-garde literary and arts movements helpful but not necessary
Ability to focus, pay attention to detail, and willingness to revise
Ability to learn and adapt quickly; flexibility; curiosity
Highest command of English, including grammar and spelling
Familiarity and high level of comfort with Macintosh computers
Must have completed at least two years of college.
Please see Siglio's website and then Martin Antonetti (x2907) for further details about this remarkable opportunity.
Granary Books, New York
Granary Books is a publisher of artists' books (in the broadest sense of the term) and a dealer in literary and art archives and libraries, specializing in materials from the 1960s to the present. We have had superb interns from Smith and its sister schools regularly for the past 15 years. The interns at Granary work on a range of projects including research, cataloging, organizing and website updates.
Those who get the most out of their experience at Granary are self-motivated, detail-oriented, hands-on and enthusiastic about the experimental strains of recent poetry and art. The work environment is very casual; Granary is based in a live/work loft in the SoHo section of lower Manhattan.

Making books from aperture 3
Greetings all! I am about to order some photo books for the holidays. Does anyone have any experience with using Aperture 3 to make a book and how is the image quality from Apple?
If anyone has any experience or can recommend a site that makes books with QUALITY Prints, it would be greatly appreciate.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Years. May you master the light and all your pics this year be keepers.

Adam, I ended up here as I was redirected from another thread you had started asking a slightly different question about books, reprints and hosting sites. I use Adorama to print for friends and family if it involves 5x7, 8x10 and up as I have found them to be a good balance between quality prints and price, turnaround time and ease of placing the order. For books I have found Blurb to also be a good balance between quality and price. I know some folks that use MPix and are happy for reprints/enlargments etc. Wish I could be of more help but I really do not do a lot of printing.

Sorry I didn't see this before. I have made three "Aperture" books. The quality is great! I also made one book using another popular service, which I didn't think was as good.
Popular Photography recently did an article on the various book printing companies. Aperture/Apple was rated very high!

I recently made a "Medium Softcover Book" from Aperture 3 for a Christmas gift and can't fault the process. Simple as, good quality and quick turnaround - even in Australia where we usually get charged a premium.

Creating books out of Aperture is easy. The quality of the pictures is good and also the quality of the book itself is very good. The only negative point is the price. There are other products available which for a better price offer also very good picture quality.

It might be not very useful for you if I give you the URL of those shops. They concentrate their business to Switzerland and possibly EU. Just do a little research in the US. Compare prices per page, paper quality, printing quality, make/shape of the book as well as the SW. For me the SW was also an important part. It should be able to run on a Mac, if possible allow for direct access to the Aperture library etc. It's relatively easy to find the information and check some forums for comments of users.
#7. "RE: Making books from aperture 3" | In response to Reply # 0
I've made a couple of books from Aperture and found the process very good. Been really happy with the photo, book and paper quality. I like that they print photos on the hard cover itself as well as the dust cover. I don't think they all do that. I really like the way you can integrate it with your library and easily add pictures as you go. Even from other libraries (if you maintain more than one). Just makes the whole process of cataloguing photos, creating slideshows and books all in one place very nice. A couple of friends have used Blurb and My Publisher but the one using Blurb has switched to My Publisher. That being said, the other person using My Publisher liked the layout options that my book had using Apple. Seems there may be more options such as changing the background colour of the pages on different pages in the same book. I like the maps feature for a travel journal type of book. Not sure if these others offer that ..but that was at least his observation when he saw my books. Apparently Apple now owns My Publisher.
A couple of words of advice. If you use one of the templates, don't delete the dust cover pages!! I did (somehow???) and couldn't seem to re create those pages even from the 'insert page from master' command. Posted on Apple's forum for Aperture Books and no one responded with a solution as well. So I had to rebuild the entire book. Make a copy (duplicate) of the book frequently so if you do make a mistake like that, you have a recent backup to go to.

Discover Cedar Mesa and Comb Ridge in this unique opportunity to learn from an archaeologist who is a well known expert on this area.
With guest anthropologist Rebecca Martin and archaeologist, Winston Hurst, learn about the Cedar Mesa and Comb Ridge area and its fascinating history that spans thousands of years. Explore the natural beauty of the landscape and side canyons, and learn about geology, desert ecology, and more during three days and three nights of guided tours. Rebecca has guided for over 25 years on the Colorado Plateau, most recently leading Range Creek Archaeology trips for CFI. Winston grew up in S.E Utah, and upon completing university work, returned to devote his professional career to his beloved home territory.
Our seminar starts with an evening session, followed by three days of field outings, mostly by van, with stops for hikes (2-3 miles round trip). Locations will include familiar and lesser known historical and archaeological sites in Butler and Comb Washes, Cedar Mesa side canyons, a spectacular drive along the Comb itself, and walking a portion of Posey's Trail. In true CFI naturalist style, guides overview geography, observe plants, discuss native uses, and note anything else of interest!
Our trip group is kept small with a minimum of 5 and maximum of 8 participants.
Trip fee includes lodging (double occupancy) and meals beginning with breakfast day 1 through lunch last day, plus permit fees and transportation. If you wish to reserve a single room, please do so in advance with a $60 per night single supplement. A part of your fee helps to underwrite our educational school programs.
Archaeologist Winston Hurst was born in Blanding, Utah and still lives there. He is a staunch advocate of archaeological preservation. More about Rebecca to follow!
To learn more about Cedar Mesa issues and conservation efforts, please visit the Friends of Cedar Mesa.
" Winston Hurst was most capable and informative. I really appreciated his insights (both academic and personal) as well as his willingness to answer the littlest questions and engage in discussion. I learned a lot and was able to see the ancient world through new lenses: I have greater appreciation and new point of view.." – Pam Hackley, Moab, UT Participant, 2016

Campbellsville University fought back from a 15-point half-time deficit but could get no closer than three in the second half and dropped an 87-76 Mid-South Conference home game to Pikeville College on Thursday.
After the Bears (14-3 overall and 3-2 in the MSC), led 44-29 at the intermission, coach Keith Adkins' Tigers (9-6, 3-2) out-scored the visitors 18-8 to trail by only five (52-47) with 16 minutes to play.
Campbellsville High School's Lady Eagles posted their fourth victory of the season with a 37-16 Monday night home win over Portland Christian.
Coach Cameron Jackson's club led 21-12 at the half and out-scored the visitors 16-4 in the second half.
Tiffany Slone led a balanced CHS attack with 13 points while Brittany Vaught added eight and Heather Watson and Masi Wilson six apiece.
Vaught also grabbed six rebounds and Slone had eight steals.
CU Press Releases
Defense has been the central theme of Campbellsville University head coach Keith Adkins' sermon all week, mainly to hold opponents below 65 points.
That's exactly what happened in Monday's Mid-South Conference makeup game, as the Tigers held University of Virginia's College at Wise to its lowest offensive production of the season in a 74-55 home win at Powell Athletic Center. It's the 20th win all-time against the first-year Mid-South Conference member.
Name the woman who has been involved and seen the most basketball and football games over the last five decades at Campbellsville High School?
If you answered Carol Gossage you just picked the CHS' inductee in the 2011 Fifth Region Athletic Director's Hall of Fame.
Gossage, known as Mrs. G, has been the Cheer Coach at Campbellsville High School for 31 years and has a total of 47 years coaching.
Gossage retired from teaching after 31 years of service after teaching Health/PE, General Science and Anatomy.
Campbellsville High School rode the 38-point performance of senior Matthew Davis to roll past Green County on the road 65-48 on Saturday night.
The Eagles (9-4) trailed 12-9 after two Skyler Shively free throws with 1:49 left in the opening quarter.
But, Davis, who scored two early baskets, had two late ones to send CHS to the second frame up 15-12.
Davis, who became the boys' 16th member of the 1,000-point club with his 29 point, tallied 13 points in the second quarter, 11 more in the third period and three steals and lay-ups in the fourth frame.
Few people could have envisioned the success of the elk reintroduction effort in Kentucky. It has succeeded the dreams of even the most optimistic planners.
Elk once roamed the eastern Kentucky hills, valleys and mountains, but then for decades disappeared from the landscape. Then Kentucky biologists and the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation began discussing and planning the reintroduction, which resulted in transplanting seven elk from Western Kansas in 1997.
The silence has been deafening. Although it was understood that Taylor County High School head football coach Curtis Cotton had met with the administration on Monday, Jan. 3 and had turned in his resignation on Tuesday, Jan. 4, it was not made public until the personnel report was released on Wednesday, Jan. 12.
