Friends of mine have been to Paris twice and would return in a moment but have always wanted to see Land's End and that area. They are ready to plan but can't decide between the two.
Any pros/cons for their next trip? I've copied the most recent Cornwall discussion to her.
What would make you choose one over the other, please?

Cornwall or Paris?
Friends of mine have been to Paris twice and would return in a moment but have always wanted to see Land's End and that area. They are ready to plan but can't decide between the two.

They are completely different trips. Cornwall is nothing like Paris, any more than Acadia National Park is like New York. I love both, but if I wanted an urban trip I would go to Paris, and if I wanted an outdoor trip with great coastal scenery and some cute small towns I would go to Cornwall.
No-one can make that kind of decision for someone else. Tell them to flip a coin. If they don't like the result they will know they should do the opposite.
Report Abuse
not even apples and oranges.
No way to compare the two -- sort of like asking Yosemite or New York City . . . who would turn down either one.
Opps -- I didn't see thursdaysd's post. Same-o/same-o

oh -- and there is no reason they couldn't do both -- one can fly from Paris to the SW UK like Bristol or Exeter, or a bit farther - Southampton)

Cornwall is lovely, but Lands End is to be avoided. The National Trust tired to buy it but sadly they failed. It is now a tatty ripoffery. I seem to remember paying a fiver to park and it went downhill from ten on
Report Abuse
Agree about Lands End, but you should be able to park one cove north and walk along the cliffs. Or just enjoy the view from nearby.
Report Abuse
Oh -- yes -- there is no reason to go to Land's End (unless simply to tick off a bucket list of some sort).
But the rest of Cornwall (and Devon) are glorious.
Report Abuse
This may seem silly but, the older we get , the less comfortable we are driving on the left , esp manual transmission. Our reflexes just are not what they were even 10 years ago.
They may want to consider driving trips, esp UK, while they still can do so. Paris will always be an option, Cornwall may not.
Report Abuse
The cove just to the north of Lands End is called Cornwall Cove ( I think ) It was once considered the most western point. A much more pleasant spot than the overly touristy Lands End. Devon and Cornwall are beautiful but the complete opposite of Paris.
Report Abuse
What about Penzance?

What about it? It's a pleasant place, and fine for a couple of nights, but it's no Paris and it's way down the end of the county.

What do your friends want from their trip???
Report Abuse
In my original post I queried: What would make you choose one over the other, please?
Perhaps I should have asked what's in the Cornwall area that interest them enough to go there instead of a return trip to Paris?
Sorry if I didn't make myself clear.
Report Abuse
We are not communicating. These are two completely different trips. What is it about Paris that they think they can find in Cornwall?
People go to Cornwall to spend a week or two at the beach with their kids.
People go to Cornwall to hike across the moors or along the coast to admire the scenery and/or commune with nature.
People go to Cornwall to drive between little villages and small towns and beautiful coves.
Do your friends go to Paris for any of that?
True, there is a cathedral at Exeter, art galleries at St. Ives, St. Michael's Mount, assorted country houses, an outdoor theater at Minack and the Eden Project, but those aren't the reasons people go to Cornwall, they're nice additions to the basic menu.
Look, the person who should be answering this is annhig, who lives in Cornwall, but she probably thought the title was so bizarre she didn't read the thread, I suggest you repost, asking what there is in Cornwall of interest (and specify your friends' interests), and leave Paris out of it.

Below is what I will report to my friends from your post, thursday:
People go to Cornwall to spend a week or two at the beach with their kids;
To hike across the moors or along the coast to admire the scenery and/or commune with nature;

Ditto. You obviously didn't understand a thing any of us posted. They are BOTH wonderful, they are BOTH worth visiting . . . and they are TOTALLY different.
There is no way one can tell someone >>Do Paris, it is better than Cornwall<< OR >>Do Cornwall, it is better than Paris<<
People travel from all over the world to visit each place.
You are asking us to compare Orangutangs and Strawberry shortcake.
That is WHY I posted >>like asking Yosemite or New York City<<
Or . . . Yellowstone or London . . . The Great Wall of China or San Francisco . . . None of these are "Better' than the other.

My 'unkind' was directed to thursday, janisj.
But it's not unanswerable. I've listed comparisons before. Wish I'd taken janis' advice and just asked "What's special in Cornwall?".

Hundreds of things. Amazing coastal scenery, castles, beautiful gardens, some of the best seafood in the world, beautiful fishing villages (think Doc Martin), world famous art galleries . . . could go on and on.
Is it "Better" than Paris? That depends on what one is looking for.

'Better' was never a word I used, janisj.
Thanks, I will add your list to that of thursday's. I presume they have googled already for specifics:

My friends enjoy fresh seafood very much. That might compel them to give the area a try for their next trip instead of returning to Paris.

This is an amazingly interesting thread. I'll throw in St Just in Roseland as great place to visit in Cornwall. Very very pretty.

Thanks, tuscan, I'll pass this along to them as well.

I love driving slowly along narrow country lanes through green fields and tall hedgerows. I love stopping in at picturesque fishing villages and wandering around, soaking in the atmosphere. I love rugged coastlines, old castles, caves, desolate moors and wild ponies. I spent 2 weeks doing just that in Devon and Cornwall and loved every minute of it. I would not have missed it for the world. On the other hand, Paris is probably the most beautiful city in the world (well, in my opinion anyway). However, since your friends have been to Paris twice and have never been to Cornwall, perhaps it is time for a change of scene?

Lovely info, Yelpir and, along with tuscan's, just what I had envisioned for this post!

To add to the Cornwall list, the Minack Theatre would be at the top of my list of places to see in Cornwall. The theatre was built by Rowena Cade who worked on the project well into her 80's, along with two of her gardeners. I was very impressed. It's located near Porthcurno about 4 miles from Lands End. An amazing effort in a beautiful location.For more information www.minack.com Polperro is a lovely little fishing village. I will also add that,IMO, Exeter Cathedral is the one of the least interesting cathedrals in the UK.
Also worthy of a visit is Tintagel Castle, Boscastle etc.etc...
In response to your original question, I would visit Cornwall but,then, I've been to Paris about a dozen times and only twice to Cornwall.
Report Abuse
I don't know how much time your friends will have on this trip. If it is only 3 or 4 days, Paris might be a better choice. To do Cornwall justice needs at least a week and the longer the better. In my view, to see Cornwall properly you do need to keep moving. If your friends prefer to stay in one hotel for the whole duration, again Paris might be the better choice. On the other hand, if they don't mind packing up and moving on every couple of days, Cornwall would be an excellent choice. Of course, I'm not saying that you couldn't pick a central spot in Cornwall and radiate outwards on a daily basis but that would probably increase driving time considerably, given that the main attractions are fairly well spread.
Personally, I would do a one way trip, starting somewhere around Bideford (yes, I know that's in Devon and travelling south down the west coast and then, if they have more time, east along the south coast until they run out of time.
Places to visit along the way:
Appledore - Nice fishing harbour and narrow streets
Buck's Mills - A pretty little village
Clovelly - A lovely coastal village
Boscastle - Lovely harbour
Tintagel - Ruined castle, cliffs, Merlin's Cave
Port Isaac - Lovely village and harbour (Doc Martin)
St Ives - Truly beautiful village.
More worthwhile than Land's End, in my opinion, would be the helicopter trip from Penzance to the Isles of Scilly. I went to Tresco for the Tresco Abbey Gardens. You can also do it by ferry if you don't fancy the helicopter.
Hope this helps
Report Abuse
Again, the Scillies are beautiful, but you need time for them. Btw, there is no longer a helicopter service. You get there by plane or ferry. Unless you are a good sailor, air is the best bet
Report Abuse
gosh TD - i just found this. sorry the thread seems to have gone "off piste" - don't let that put you/ your friends off coming to Cornwall.
We have many visitors who stay for a whole fortnight and still go home saying how much they have missed. Even a few days are good, but IMO you need at least a week to really see something of the county and absorb its unique atmosphere. you can fly into Bristol, Exeter or even Newquay, or get a direct train from many parts of the UK including London Paddington.
as for what there is to see, there are many excellent ideas above, I'll just throw in that no-one needs to go to Land's End [thoroughly agree about that], Sennen Cove is the place just north of there which is much nicer, Cape Cornwall is the most westerly point in the British Isles and the Lizard is the most southerly. All three easily visited in one day.
any questions and I'll be glad to try to answer them.

Hi annhig, You didn't miss it. I don't remember when they are traveling this time, but would guess in Fall or Spring.
The months you mentioned are "iffy" in Maryland also but more so in Jan/Feb.
Report Abuse
i would definitely recommend Cornwall in the spring, when all the gardens are at their best and we often have great weather, whereas I have been truly chilled to the bone in Paris at that time of year.
Report Abuse
To see Cornwall, you usually have to drive (see below). Narrow lanes, on the left, most likely with manual transmission. For some folks, that's a deal breaker. If that doesn't deter them, Cornwall is gorgeous for a quietish exploring and eating vacation. And not one bit similar/comparable to Paris!
We went to St Ives a couple of years ago, by train, and loved it - late September. Stayed at a charming small hotel (Primrose Valley) that was just a short walk from the station. We were only visiting St Ives, so did not need a car for that visit! And many great places to eat...
Report Abuse
No guarantee, but when I was younger we went to Cornwall every year the week before Whitsun and always had good weather. Spring was certainly best for us.
We took our little ones camping every year (usually over the Summer) and the weather was iffy to say the least!
Love St Ives but wouldn't choose to stay there and parking can be hard, park in Lelant and take the train in - its a truly beautiful ride.
I'm a sucker for the smaller harbor towns like Mevagissey - I wonder if the model railway is still open
I always wanted to see a performance at Minack Theatre, it has a beautiful backdrop. We used to climb up from Porthcurno (my favorite beach in the whole of the Uk) which has the most amazing turquoise sea.
I'd go to Cornwall in a heartbeat but we have family there, that makes a huge difference

Basingstoke, you'd be very welcome. we had the most glorious weekend with warm sunny weather and plenty to do for folks who like to do things - in particular the beginning of the Tall Ships Race which saw 40 odd boats including some huge square-riggers setting out from Falmouth to sail up to London.
with our camping chairs and thermos flasks we joined many others in a field overlooking the start line to watch all the ships line up. it was a typically cornish affair - lots of people meeting friends they hadn't seen in months, a one-way system round the lanes that didn't always work, and possibly not as many signs as non-locals might have wished for. but the sun shone, they had provided plenty of toilets, and the hot dogs and ice-cream didn't run out.

friends of ours had their boat out on the water and they said that it was thrilling getting so close to the big sailboats. but as you say, TD, we were very lucky that the weather co-operated, especially as it rained heavily the next day.

Numerous individuals who watch Andy's video review on His channel on Youtube additionally approach him what's the best printer for the home or office or what's the best printer for student? So He chose to survey the HP OfficeJet 4650.
HP OfficeJet 4650 All-in-One Printer video review
Holding nothing back One Photo Printer. This is an HP Instant Ink Ready printer that has worked in WiFi furthermore has a scanner, copier, and fax capacities. Coming in at under $100 this is a financial plan benevolent alternative for individuals searching for a moderate printer. He is entirely satisfied with this present printer's configuration. It's made of a gorgeous dark plastic outside with a moderate vibe to it, and it measures somewhat more than 14 lbs. It just has one catch, the force catch, and whatever is left of the controls are done through the computerized touch screen on the front. It has two approaches to examine, either through the programmed archive feeder on top or the flatbed scanner, and the info plate can hold 100 sheets of paper and is effortlessly covered up under the printer.
The setup was quick and simple. Simply control it on and pop in the 2 ink cartridges that are incorporated into the printer. Despite the fact that it comes with a CD, He didn't have to utilize it.
Andy just took after the setup manage and could associate the printer to His WiFi system inside minutes and He could instantly print from His Mac without introducing any product.
A cool thing you'll notice about this printer is the yield plate naturally pops out when you're printing and when you're set you can move the yield plate back in so it's outside of anyone's ability to see. You can associate the printer with your WiFi system from the printer itself or by utilizing the free HP Remote application.
Once the printer is associated with a system you can without much of a stretch print photographs or records from your PC, cell phone, or tablet. Clearly the principal thing He printed was a photo of His cat. It's on normal paper however, yet with the right photograph paper the OfficeJet 4650 can print borderless lab-quality photographs which is great. He'll essentially be utilizing it for business however, for the most part when I have to print twofold sided customer contracts, examine reports, or make duplicates. It's not the quickest printer, but rather it's precisely what you can anticipate from an inkjet in its value range. One of the primary elements of this printer is the HP Instant Ink administration since we've all been in that circumstance where we have to print something critical yet our printer is full scale of ink.
Well HP Instant Ink is attempting to settle that for you by permitting you to agree to one of their month to month arranges in light of the quantity of pages you print and your printer will naturally arrange ink cartridges that are conveyed to your entryway so you never come up short on ink again. It's cool since it's totally discretionary in the event that you'd rather arrange ink the way it was done in the good 'ol days, and you can drop at whatever time.
We as a whole know how costly ink can be so relying upon your printing propensities, this administration could conceivably spare you a great deal of cash over the long haul. So with it's smooth configuration, quick and simple setup, WiFi printing from my PC and all cell phones, in addition to the choice for Instant Ink alongside the photograph printing and scanner/copier capacities, the HP OfficeJet 4650 is a strong choice for understudies or little entrepreneurs. It'll unquestionably help your profitability easily.
Please LIKE and SHARE if this HP OfficeJet 4650 All-in-One printer review is useful for you… and please take a look my another smashing tech review.

I truly never meant to take that long of a break but life took over!
Im gonna make a better blogging schedule so I can maintain it.
So do I rewind and review or just start fresh???
I got a promotion at work os that accounts for a lot of my time because work is NUTS!
We are moving from 9,000 square feet to 22,000 so you can imagine how CRAZY that is!
I finished my guest room...
I bought a SUPER used dining room table and chairs and refinished it...
Cant remember if I already posted this but I redid a buffet.
The table and buffet motivated me to REPAINT the dining room (FYI still haven't picked a color)
Which then led to me painting the doors in the dining room...
I have decided that I have a green thumb!
I had an AMAZING Spring with some gorgeous flowers from the yard!
I planted a salsa garden!
And let me tell you this thing is OUT OF CONTROL NOW!
I will do a whole post on this because let me tell you it is my pride and joy right now (how sad does that make me sound HA)!
My yard is looking so good this year! Thanks to my brother! But I will say that I planted my own grass seed! I felt like a true farmer laying grass seed!
AND then I found this....
I now go outside in boots and I always have a shovel or some other kind of weapon with me at ALL times when outside.
I spent a WHOLE Saturday trying to rescue this dog!
LONG STORY AND TRUST ME a post will be dedicated to good ole Clinton!
On the hottest day in the Spring my air went out!
See it was 77 in the house and I had the air on 65! That was a stressful week!
My Mom was in a flash mom!
I got my summer color and I am letting my hair grow out!
Ok well I could go on for days but in a nutshell here a few pictureless highlights from the last few months...
We had a blackout in my neighborhood which was caused by electric lines snapping, some sort of explosion and part of a tree falling! It was insane I had to call 911 because it happened right in my yard and my neighbors yard! AND I was without cable and internet! I was about one day from complete red neck on Comcast.
My little brothers hot water exploded at his house! Talk about craziness! Lets just say he got a new office and laundry room.
My little Zoe had to have surgery but she is fine now!
We celebrated my Grannys birthday!
All my friends babies are growing up so fast! I will post recent pictures of them soon!
Ok if you ready this far THANK YOU!

In The Realm of Rare and Analogous Accidents Trailer (2013)
Side by Side; Searching for a relationship that defines the states of belonging; The space in the middle. Questioning the power of the image… the image that guides us. The image that lies. "Something is of course always lost when we get to see only one side. It is for the exact same reason that one must have the courage to confess the pain of the coma-like contrast of life and cinema. In this scenario, somehow we must put it all together to see the big picture; While in the state of unconsciousness, we are stuck at the thin edge of a screen where two worlds, two countries, and two cities separate for the sake of it. I feel helpless standing in the middle. In this chain of accidents, in this battle of guns and bombs, in the pile of my notes, thoughts, and nostalgic memories of Texas and Tehran, the world lacks trust in common sense."

I'm not sure that's quite the correct fix - can we guarantee that libc++ always implies the C99 math functions are available? I suspect it would be better to check the platform (what is the platform BTW)?
In the mean time I'll add a static_cast so you don't get the implicit-conversion warnings/errors.

The NHLs current collective bargaining agreement ends on September 15, and if there is no new agreement by then the league will lock out the players, commissioner Gary Bettman confirmed on Thursday, according to several media reports.
Previously, NHLPA head Donald Fehr said that the players would be willing to start the season on time without an agreement, but the league wont allow that to happen.
We reiterated to the union that the owners will not play another year under the current agreement, said Bettman.
Multiple reports have said that the owners would like to decrease the players share of hockey-related revenue from 57 percent to 46 percent; increase the number of years a player must play before he can become an unrestricted free agent from seven to 10; cap the length of contracts at five years; eliminate salary arbitration; and make entry-level contracts five years rather than three.
The players association would like to see an increase in the amount of revenue sharing, something the NHL currently does in a limited capacity.
The two sides will continue meeting next week in Toronto, where the NHLPA is expected to make a formal counter-proposal.

Interview with poet Joey Nicoletti
1. How did poetry enter your life?
All of my poetic roads lead to Langston Hughes. I discovered his poem "Theme for English B" in the 5th grade, and it was love at first read. Then I went on a field trip to the Walt Whitman House, where I heard someone read "I Hear America Singing" and "When I Heard the Learn'd Astronomer." I wrote my first poem about a week later, which felt as if I had found a new galaxy. To this day, Langston and Walt are my on-the-page/tech and spiritual support system: my go to poets and my first poetry mentors.
2. Along with writing poetry, you also teach it. How do you make time for your own work with all the demands of teaching?
One of the greatest demands of teaching is reading and responding to student work, which is also one of its greatest joys. For me, to engage in student work is to delve into the idea of audience: in the writing classes I teach, the students and I are in a community, where in addition to sharing poems, we are sharing space and time so that we all learn what is working in a poem and why, and how our own work might be better made, so that others outside of our community, as well as ourselves might connect with the ideas that they are presenting for others' consideration with cogency and resonance. Thus, by being paid to respond to student work, I am writing, and the comments I write inform my own work, not only because am I reading, but also, like Frasier Crane, I'm listening. By working diligently to hear to what someone is attempting or seems to be telling me, I practice my reading skills, which is to say that I am also enhancing the ability to listen to my own work; my own ideas more objectively, which helps me in my own work, as well as the students who I am beyond fortunate to work with. Thus, making time to write is not a problem, as I am reading before I write student comments, which often comes before my own work. If I have learned or hope to impress anything to the people I work with, it is that there is no writing well without reading extremely well, eclectically, every day, and much more often than one writes. As Walt Whitman posited, "To have great poets, there must be great audiences." I am part of the audience more frequently than I am someone who is presenting to an audience or courting their attention. To paraphrase Anne Sexton, reading poetry is my hands, face, mind, and heart.
3. Favorite quote(s) regarding poets and poetry?
I have many, but my favorite comes from Samuel Taylor Coleridge: "Poetry: the best words in the best order." This is the DNA of all that I endeavor to do in shaping and presenting my ideas for an audience of poetry aficionados or those who would be.
4. Who are some of your favorite poets?
Wow. That's like asking me my favorite musician/musical group, meal, wine, New York Yankees or Seattle Seahawks player. Nevertheless, since 12 is my lucky number, here is a list of 10 more of my favorite poets, in addition to Langston Hughes and Walt Whitman, in no particular order: Claudia Emerson, Thomas Lux, Linda Hogan, Tomas Transtromer, Lucille Clifton, Naomi Shihab Nye, Louise Gluck, Stanley Kunitz, Gwendolyn Brooks, and Philip Levine.
5. Along with being a fan of poetry, you are also a big fan of sports. Is this evident in your work?
The short answer is, yes. The longer answer is, absolutely, hells to the yeah! I was raised on a steady diet of pasta and Yankee baseball. MLB baseball and NFL/American football are second and third languages of sorts that I am fluent in, not only because of my own interest, but also because watching these sports was the primary means in which my family and I communicated, especially in my formative years. The poems and essays of both, Cannoli Gangster and Reverse Graffiti reflect this, as sports figures gave my family and I ways of seeing people—especially those of Italian descent something to root for; that America was, as I say in an essay about Joe DiMaggio in Reverse Graffiti. To them, as it is for many immigrants from other countries, America was place where my siblings and I had a chance to make the most of our talents in ways that my parents couldn't. Like Walt, they also heard America singing, never more sonorously than when members of the Yankees—especially those with Italian bloodlines—excelled: a montage of an Italian American Dream realized. Pro sports have and continue to inform and inspire my life in ways that surprise me, which is the paragon of reasons why I blog about it weekly. balldurham.tumblr.com .
7. A lot of poets could use advice. What is your best?
Never stop reading, and be consistently and equally persistent in perfecting your poetry as you would be in publishing it. Stephen King posits, "If you don't have time to read, you don't have time to write." The chances of magazine editors rejecting work is always present, especially (and most often) when starting to submit work for publication. Don't let rejection dampen your passion or halt your efforts. Be persistent. Read, read, read, read and read some more. And then write and revise. Persist.
5. Favorite literary movie(s), if any?
I have three. Although my first movie is not a literary one in the sense of being about poetry with a capital P, I would be remiss not to mention Apocalypse Now. It's an adaptation of Joseph Conrad's novella Heart of Darkness, and Francis Ford Coppola's direction—his singular knack for combining imagery and music is a poetic feast for me, which begins with using The Doors' classic song "The End" as helicopters are bombing a village—and that's before the audience hears any dialogue! The rest of the film has memorable one-liners (I.E., "I love the smell of napalm in the morning."), speeches, narration, and images that accrue with all of the pleasures and technical virtuosity that is characteristic of a considerable amount of my favorite poems, and I am grateful for all of the people that brought the movie into the world. A close second is The Wizard of Oz, which is also an adaptation, and similarly amalgamates music, dialogue, and imagery effectively. The third is Dead Poet's Society. I miss Robin Williams for this reason alone, but my unofficial middle names are Carpe Diem: his performance inspired me to consider teaching as way to make a life, at least much as making a living, if not more so.
6. Where did you grow up and how do you think that affected your writing?
I was born in Astoria, Queens, New York City, "the city," and raised on Long Island. My father worked as a NYC Bus Driver for 40 years, which was wonderful, because he had routes all of over the city: Sugar Hill, Greenwich Village, Chelsea, Midtown and Boogie Down, among other neighborhoods. I used to go into work with him whenever possible. It was not unusual for him to have 70 hour work-weeks, so not only did going to work with him give us the chance to hang, I got to see and learn the city in a unique way. I liken seeing the East Village from the windows of my father's bus to Dorothy opening her bedroom door and seeing Emerald City in vibrant color in The Wizard of Oz. I suppose this is one reason why my father is in many of my poems, as well as the city itself. If children learn what they live, as the saying goes, then New York was a faculty of skyscrapers, shadows, and streets, where I formed my first impressions of the world, and poetry was all around me in a singularly dynamic and adroit way. This informs many of the poems of Reverse Graffiti, so it would be fair to say that it is a book that is rife with New York.
7. How did you choose the titles for the two volumes of poetry that are published?
I think that it's more accurate to say that they chose themselves. In the case of Cannoli Gangster, it was a phrase that popped out in a conversation that I had with my spouse about a poem that I was working on, and we both nodded. In the case of Reverse Graffiti, I saw a peace sign thumbed into the grime of the back window of a parked car. It was a typical mid-November day in Buffalo, overcast, with the smell and promise of new snow in the air. The image struck me as a metaphor for the poems of the book: to make art, to find beauty in the grime of the world around me, as well as my mind, heart, soul's and windows of my family's and my personal history: Reverse Graffiti. http://bit.ly/reverseg
8. Do you think social network websites are more of a distraction from creating or rather a good way to market yourself?
This is another great question. I think they are terrific, because as long as a poet has access to a phone, laptop, tablet, and the like, social network sites give writers a chance to reach a wide or specific audience type in ways that poets could have only dreamed of. Imagining poets as ubiquitous and prolific as Walt Whitman or Langston Hughes tweeting today makes me smile from ear to ear, because they understood that to connect with human beings was the essence of all audience-oriented writing genres, and especially poetry, where efficiency with language is a unique characteristic and challenge of the genre. As Samuel Taylor Coleridge said: "best words, best order," whether it's 140 characters or less in the Twitterverse or likes on Facebook, The Gram, Tumblr, or any other public-access area of cyberspace.
9. Okay, you're going to be on an island alone for a lengthy amount of time. Besides writing tools and necessities such as food, what three items are you bringing with you?
First, in the (perhaps absurd) hopes that there will be power outlets, I will bring my laptop with me, so that I can keep up with my loved ones, watch films, videos, read poems, stories, essays, reviews, articles and be apprised of the latest developments with my Yankees and Seahawks. Second, I will bring a bag that is filled with Duracell batteries of books, including The Collected Poems of Langston Hughes, Marissa Acocella Marchetto's Graphic Memoir Cancer Vixen, Maxine Hong Kingston's The Woman Warrior, issue 8 of the first volume of The Avengers, and Carl Sagan's Cosmos. Third, a flashlight, so that I can read them at night.
10. Outside of poetry and being a sports fan, what other activities do you enjoy?
I love, love, comic books, books about comics, graphic novels, and most things super-hero: reading them, collecting them, you name it. Comics are one of the major entries in my book of passions. Listening to music also is a joy, as is seeing live shows/concerts, and there is nothing like hanging with my family and/or friends with succulent food and marvelous spirits, either at my family's digs or at someone else's. I am also passionate about animals and traveling. I enjoy going to places I have never been before and getting new perspectives on the world, almost as much as I love my dogs and cat.
11. The muse seems to have vanished. A blank page has become intimidating. What do you do to conjure the muse in such difficult times or do you just take a break?
Read, love, sleep, eat, drink, laugh, read, and persist. I find that this also works well for many non-writing situations.
12. Aside from the textbook(s) you use to teach your students, any books you'd recommend that deal with writing poetry?
Although I have yet to use them exclusively in a classroom, I recommend Richard Hugo's The Triggering Town along and Kenneth Koch's Making Your Own Dreams. These books are as opulent with joy as they are with sagacity and intrigue, which appeals to both, the novice or established poet. To put it another way, these are two wonderful books by two unique and essential contemporary American poets who were also gifted teachers of verse.
13. Do you have any favorite creative websites you frequent? If so, please share.
I adore www.poets.org. Not only is the site rife with poems and stories of the poets who have written them, there are some terrific resources for teaching poetry, which I found especially useful when I started out as a student, as well as an instructor of poetry writing.
14. If you could change one thing about the world of poetry as it is today, what would it be?
One of my greatest hopes for today's poetry world is the same as those that I have for the future: let more independent presses come into the world and propagate. The more of them we have, the greater the opportunities will be for all of the wonderful poets who have yet to publish a book, which will encourage creativity and learning, which I submit is always, always a worthwhile endeavor, not to mention a great way to spend a day or evening, just as it has been in doing this interview with you. Salute!
*A huge thanks to Joey Nicoletti for agreeing and taking the time to do this interview. Please check out his work and collections of poetry.

Ever wonder what it would look like to get sucked into a black hole in space? Me neither, but scientists have developed a computer simulation that shows what you would see if you were drifting toward a brain-crushing singularity, according to New Scientist.
Two scientists at the University of Colorado in Boulder wrote code based on the equations of Einstein's general theory of
relativity, which describes gravity as a distortion of space and time, the article said. "They follow the fate of an imaginary observer on an orbit that swoops
down into a giant black hole weighing five million times the mass of the
sun, about the same size as the hole in the center of our own galaxy."
The report said that the research could eventually help physicists understand what happens to matter and energy in a black hole. For the rest of us, it's pretty cool to watch. Follow the link to see a short (45-second) video of the sequence, as light from other stars near the hole is swallowed up by the event horizon (the point at which nothing can escape the black hole).

Nicked off
The comments thread piling up behind Nick Bruno's latest column is instructive, indeed much more so than his article, which uses a pretty obviously staged letter from one "Mrs. Smith" to hector sg traditionalists (about which I'll have more to say later) in the name of progress. Because I find this whole "debate" to be well nigh worthless, the rearguarders and vanguardists are equally obnoxious to me. These cat fights smack of holier-than-thouism … who can position themselves as the person or group that really "gets it" about sg. And it's interesting that both groups glom onto the NAME "southern gospel": the traditionalists raising the specter of a name change the way some political demagogues suggest that "Under God" might be taken out of the pledge, while the progressives like Bruno sound the death knell of the name "southern gospel" as an indication that the label can't adequately comprehend what it attempts to describe. But while these opposing forces have decamped to their prickly patch of preachiness, sg as a musical form continues to thrive and find expression in a variety of forms and sounds.
If you're tempted to think the evolution of sg music vindicates the self-proclaimed progressives like Bruno, don't. For one thing, Bruno is an establishment guy if ever there was on, thoroughly plugged into the business, promotion, power network of sg and as much a part of the status quo that enables the stagnation he complains about as anyone could be (and of course Bruno's notions of what "thinking outside the box" means are, like his fellow columnist Dale Duhl's, often very intimately related to the kinds of products and services he sells). Secondly, no one can be vindicated in a fake fight: this whole shouting match is, as I've described it before, "a matter of taste being dressed up like a monumental discussion of Big Ideas." Nobody who's been singing inspo gets up in the morning and says, "you know what, I think I'll sing traditional sg from now on to the exclusion of everything else" (and good luck figuring out that "traditional" means) or "I think I'll let go of the past and start thinking outside the box today." Or "I'm going to sing country gospel and not classic quartet music in an effort to really take sg to the next level." People may and do prefer one of these inflections or flavors of sg, often strongly (and the way they do business and manage their affairs will inevitably flow directly from the same set of preferences and values that inform their choice of music). But their decision, if it can even rightly be called that, is a product of a whole host of factors: age, sometimes gender, where and how a person is raised, religious affiliation, and perhaps the presence or absence of formal musical training, among many other things I'm probably forgetting. With adulthood comes a solidification of tastes and predilections for many things, including musical likes and dislikes. And those tastes are connected to an underlying vision of the world. But it's a long way away from preferring something and explaining that preference (nothing wrong with that, of course) to the presumption that your preference somehow more legitimately trumps all other comers and in fact represents the vision that will save sg from itself, as both traditionalists and progressives claim theirs will.
Why sg doesn't expand beyond its fairly circumscribed borders has to do with a range of issues that are far more complicated and insoluble than this facile rhetoric of "repackaging" sg (Bruno) or thinking "outside the box" (Susan Unthank) suggests. Traditionalists like Roy Pauley and John Rulapaugh are as persuasive to me as a sack of hair (more to say about this later, too). But it's preposterous to caricature their positions as purely thick-headed self-interest lustily thwarting the well-being, development and expansion of sg, as arguments like Bruno's implicitly do. Pauley and Rulapaugh really believe the stuff they say, as far as I can tell, and they really do think their way of seeing things and doing business is what sg needs in order to thrive and succeed. There are worst things to be than passionate about sg, even if you're wrong sometimes. I'd be more worried if theirs were the only ideas and influences shaping sg (just as I'd be worried if the Nick Brunos and Dale Duhls of the world were given the keys to the store, what with their laser-lights-and-fog-machine approach to updating sg), but that's just not the case. There's no want of perspectives in sg. It's the discipline that's lacking, the fortitude and maturity to stop playing rhetorical paint ball and start focusing on the real infrastructural issues that cut across silly partisan lines and are actually at the heart of sg's future - radio programming and promotion, charting, A&R, new media, talent scouting and development and on and on. That sg continues to flourish (insofar as alot of people still want to sing sg) in spite of these systemic and chronic problems ought to suggest just how distractingly futile "Mrs. Smith's" questions really are, how badly they miss the point, and how urgently the subject needs to be changed to things that matter if there's going to be an industry capable of properly handling and sustaining the interest in sg.Email this Post

God does not promise a pain-free life. In fact, he promises just the opposite. In this broken world it is inevitable that we meet with difficulty. But he also promises infinite goodness in the midst of the pain.
Lamentations 3:31-32 says,"For no one is abandoned by the Lord forever. Though he brings grief, he also shows compassion because of the greatness of his unfailing love."
These words were spoken by a man with a great heart for God's people. His nation was suffering through tremendous trials and he felt their pain. Yet he still dared to hope that God could pour out love while pouring out his anger. That is hope in a seemingly impossible situation, and it inspires me.
Surely I can have hope regardless of my circumstances, because my circumstances are not the full wrath of God bearing down on me and my people. So I will dare to hope.

BTW, THE NEXT 13 MIN BAR STARTING AT 11:35 should contain a low... time will tell!
Kool, how do you decide which bar to use for cycle low on 5 min chart? See the identical highs at 10:25 and 10:30 on 5 min chart. I have low coming up now using the second one.
theres a BINGO on 1122.25! i know im getting a little crazy (2 hours sleep?) but i just bought 2 more at 1122.50.... long 4 from avg of 1123.50
Using a tight 2 point stop to start, but i'll likely raise it soon...
Before you mail in my nomination for the Nobel prize, be aware that the 5 min chart has now experienced the dreaded cross of the moving averages signifying the trend is now down! The 13 min has not , but could if we dont begin to rebound soon! ...ps: Oh go ahead and mail it ! Hell, Obama got his for stuff that hasnt happened yet, right? lol
Originally posted by einsteinTRUTH IS FRIEND YOU DONT KNOW FOR SURE, BUT USUALLY A SHORTER TERM CHART MIGHT HELP CLARIFY. Also even if the low is coming now, for instance, then im hoping that it would just be the obligatory retest of that 1122.25 low and not a new low! Any way , thats all the more reason for a tight stop here!
Kool, how do you decide which bar to use for cycle low on 5 min chart? See the identical highs at 10:25 and 10:30 on 5 min chart. I have low coming up now using the second one.
thanks, Kool.
Theres a real danger here. I told you about the 5 min chart, ...if the market cant rebound above 1124.50 soon then the 13 min averages will also feature the 'death cross' ! I might need that nobel money soon!
LOL ..guess they heard me! I'll be taking 2 off at 1124.50 just in case.

Cameron Highlands, Darky day
Cameron Highlands Travel Blog› entry 6 of 9 › view all entries
'Darky day' for me relates to a story, how apocryphal I don't know about the customs of Jane's village, Truro. As Alex tells it in Truro they still have a day where people dress up as minstrels and in a non-offensive way act as darkies. The significance of this story is that it is a reflection of how little else happened in the Cameron Highlands.
The Cameron Highlands is a peaceful, hilly, lush sort of place with decent weather. Appropriate weather it seems for growing pretty much anything, the anything of choice appears to be Tea. Its not hard to find a picturesque image on the web on endless hills covered in Tea when investigating the Cameron Highlands, and I have thus added some photo's of such Tea plantations. I did not take these photo's because at the time I did not see the point so much in taking photo's of endless greenness.
It seems the common place places to go in this area are to a Tea plantation, to Butterfly parks, Elephant rides, the Mossy forest and on various treks. Given that this is the kingdom of the Tea leaf it definitely seems fitting to go to the tea plantation. If you do this its likely you will get to spend some time in the fields, or rather looking down on the Tea fields from a road, this is sensible due to the fact that although it is often suggested that there are thousands of sun kissed ladies clipping tea plants, and this may be the case, it is also the case that there are monsterous looking machines also clipping the tea. Machines that looks very much capable of decapitating a carefree tourist in the Tea fields.
In addition to the time spend in the tea fields, which I am not going to pull any punches on and declare is actually quite boring, a trip to the plantation visitors centre is very likely.
The next day controversy rang out in the tour group as two factions emerged, the hikers and the butterfly lovers! In more succinct terms there was a small group that wished to hike up a hill to get some exercise and another group that would raise an eyebrow in concern at the idea of exercise, the second group would go to the Butterfly park. I can not really comment on the Butterfly park as I did not visit it, but it comes recommended by some people. A hike however, if you have the energy for it is great, about a dozen of us decided to go and find the worlds largest flower!
To find the worlds largest flower takes about three hours of uphill hike, there is no path as such but there are narrow patches of land with little vegetation on that are roughly in a sequence and make up a path. At some points the path has giant trees that have fallen over which you can climb over or under, at some points there are 15 foot deep crevices where water has washed away soil, at some points the path is very narrow with branches of thorns that stick out and make it unlikely that you will not get caught at some point. And at some points the path disappears completely, this is the best bit, its easy to imagine yourself as Indiana Jones scrambling through the moist vegetation. The ground undulates up and down and its impossible to gather your footing without holding onto the surrounding vegetation. In the later staes of the hike a small group of us where trekking through the thick vegitation down a steep ledge, each person gathering bundles of the vegetation firmly in hand while establishing a footing before moving on a little by little.
The vegetation is similar to Bamboo shafts, and on one level make for a good sturdy grip, their downfall was quickly illustrated when I lost my footing wherein I dragged the 'bamboo' branches from a perpendicular angle to the horizon to the same angle as the slope hitting the people in front of me with branches and laying down the branches as additional hazards on the assault course for people behind me. Those moments of falling over and scrambling for my footing knocking people down in front of me and causing a panic for those behind me were exhilarating, I can't help but feel so much more alive when I am not comfortably protected from every danger.
Eventually the flower was found, you will see from the photo its not the prettiest thing, it is however large, about the size of a bidet. A fact Tom felt was required to chronicle by having a photo of him pretending to take a dump in the flower, so here we are, elevation 1700 meters, after three hours exercise, a discovery of something special and to cap it off we have a comedy photo to boot. Excellent.
This was a much needed re-bonding for me and Tom as I was still smarting from his sneaky tactics during the climb, first thing to appreciate is we had a light hearted bet on seeing who would be the first to the top of the trek. This also coincided with Tom trying to crack onto the very pretty German girl of big luggage fame. The German girl had brought with her an extremely large suitcase and an even larger female friend, think East German athlete after being caught doping and started eating.
Tom, to his credit offered to carry the petite German girls rucksack, who was clearly struggling, with the snappy one liner 'no its ok, what sort of gentleman would I be to let you struggle', this has left the German girls friend looking at me wondering what sort of Gentleman I am not to offer to carry her bag, and me thinking what sort of Gentleman I would be by my actions (or in-action), in demonstrating that only pretty slim girls get their bag carried! So now I find myself carrying a much heavier bag than Tom for a girl that Simon would commonly refer to as a 'Wagon', while he is gaining favour with the blonde and racing me up the hill.
At the bottom of the hill we had the opportunity to sit in the rapids of a river. A great way to relax but fun also as the force of the rapids pushes you around all over the place.
You can also go Elephant trekking in the Cameron Highlands, the place i went to is easily organised within the hotel the day before you fancy going, you simply pay your money on reception and wake up and wait outside when it is time to go. The Elephant trekking route I went on is through a rubber plantation, climbing on the elephants is pretty scary at first but the animals are so solid its hard not to relax even when not secured in the seat.
My most vivid memory of the experience is of what to my eyes looked like quite rough treatment of the elephants by the driver, if that is the correct term. The driver was a woman of no more than five foot that sat on the Elephants head, the direction required was clearly well know to the elephant so a driver was probably not required to go in the right direction but more to go at the correct place and stop when a photo call was required.
Now the driving apparatus for an elephant appears to be sharp looking ice pick device. The ice pick will be jammed in the sharp end in the skin flap of the left ear if the elephant is to go left or on the right ear if the elephant should go right. It looks painful but the elephant never flinched. The fact these are tough animals was further illustrated when the driver hit the elephant full bore with the flat side of the ice pick to kill a mosquito on the elephant skin. A strike that led me to sneakily start liberaly spraying the elephant and me with DEET. DEET is rank but better that than the driver hitting the elephant or me because of a single rogue insect.

I want to thank you for opening my eyes
Helping me realize just why we are here
To chase down new horizons, eyes or prizes, forgetting your fear

I've came here from the KHWiki of SEIWA to help Bulbapedia out with information regarding X & Y. I prefer Kingdom Hearts over Pokémon, but I am still a huge fan. I am a 23-year-old Australian woman, and I've got every single Generation V game plus Pokémon X & Y. Despite what my name implies, Uxie is not my favorite Pokémon.
My current focus is to make sure that all the Pokémon with the Fairy-type has that type in the Move (if they learn them in Generation VI) and Ability articles, as well as insure that all Pokémon have their TM/HM status for Sun & Moon confirmed, then
I will turn into a crystal haha, just kidding.
Pokémon focus is mainly on the games and manga, though I'll help out with the anime articles every know and then. I will often battle/trade online, and is willing to help anyone complete their Pokédex, thanks to my access to Pokémon Bank.
Based on reports of my friends at the KHWiki, my Friend Safari type is Fire. Ironic, considering Shiva was directly named after a recurring Final Fantasy summon who's associated with Ice. If you ask who Pascal was named after, the only clue I will give is that he lives in a desert town that was inspired by the same thing a certain Unova route was based on...
My first game of the franchise ever played was Blue, back in 2003 (it was a hand-me-down), though I soon got attached to the anime, though I never saw any episode from before Advance Generation. Being a dim-witted 9-year-old, I though that Blue was adapted from the anime. I've also once subscribed to a Scholastic series where they send a book every month, all anime based, but I've since donated them to a children's library.
Following the release of Kingdom Hearts II in 2006, my interests in Pokémon declined drastically.
Interest in Pokémon came to a complete stop as I hit the teenage years and began to think of the anime as merely a cartoon for preschoolers. But in late 2009, I decided to give Platinum a go while on a family holiday, and regained interest, which was completely sealed when I got HeartGold later on.
Since then, I've gotten every single main game that came out, and began to focus on my Pokédex in the hopes of completing it fully one day, which was finally succeeded with Y in 2014. I've also started to collect the Pokémon Adventures manga, and I've got volumes 1 - 28, so far. I've also gotten Pokémon Origins on DVD.
As for the anime, I stopped caring about it during Best Wishes, but took some interest again because of Diancie and the Cocoon of Destruction being released in Australia around the same time as Kingdom Hearts HD 2.5 ReMIX (I got both on the same day). However, all interest in the anime declined to cynicism following the Sun and Moon series. I consider the anime as having jumped the shark since the Sinnoh League.
I went to the Pokémon: Symphonic Evolutions that was held in Adelaide, South Australia, on November 17, 2015. I've seen White—Victini and Zekrom, Kyurem vs. The Sword of Justice, Diancie and the Cocoon of Destruction, and Hoopa and the Clash of Ages at Hoyts Cinemas (Tea Tree Plaza), but I've boycotted Genesect and the Legend Awakened in responce to Mewtwo, and have chosen to forego all movies starting with Volcanion and the Mechanical Marvel because I feel the anime is no longer watchable to anyone above the age of six.
I have access to Pokémon GO, and I'm on Team Instinct. I'm currently at Level 30.
- Please note that these lists are of Generation VI standards, which means Pokémon with the Fairy-type will have it listed as such, even if they are of earlier generations.
Omega Ruby
Riku and Kairi are named after two of the Kingdom Hearts protagonists. Not only are the names direct homages, they also reflect Groudon and Kyogre, respectively.
Alpha Sapphire
Sora's Mismagius was named for Carrie Fisher, who died in December 2016. I'm a fan of Star Wars.
Ultra Sun
The protagonist will a female. Her name will be Xion, and will choose Rowlet. She is set to be a foil to Pyrrha, and is named after a Replica from Kingdom Hearts.
Ultra Moon
The protagonist will a male. His name will be Jaune, and will choose Litten. He is set to be a foil to Sora, and is named after Jaune Arc from RWBY.
Shiny Pokémon
One of my habits in the Pokémon games is collecting Shiny Pokémon, mainly through Wonder Trade. I should soon work on a box for how I got each one (note: this only applies to Pokémon I caught/hatched and events). Please note that I only collect legitimate Shiny Pokémon; no hacks.

When I was a child, my mom made a clown costume that was subsequently worn by all three of us siblings. Or at least, it was worn by me and one brother. She sent me these photos when I told her my plan:
My mom, endlessly supportive of whatever whim is crossing my mind, said, "Sure! Sew a clown costume! That's a great idea! The clown costume was SO EASY to make!"
First, I thought I wanted to make the pattern myself. I do love making patterns. It's like small-scale architectural drawing to me. I made the pattern for the baby cloak, so I thought I'd just whip up a clown costume pattern. Except, pattern making is not quite like architectural drawings. My first rendition of the clown costume became a big failure when I sat down at the sewing machine.
I broke down and bought a pattern (pretty much with the same resignation that I broke down and bought a new builder-built house). My time was too short. Sometimes, I told myself, you just have to cut your losses and improve the wheel instead of reinventing it.
The pattern agreed with my mother. This was an EASY project. Two hours! It claimed.
Of course, I had to improve it.
Days and days and days later, we finally have something resembling a clown costume:
It's not done yet. Turns out, the boys don't care at all about how cute it looks. Or about the fabulously integrated neck ruffle. Or the circle and dot patterns (eventually) reiterated with strategically shaped patches. Or the experimentation with simultaneous contrasts in the color palette. They want function: a never-ending handkerchief in the pocket. Built-in squeaky noises. A secret water compartment and hose to spray unsuspecting people. AND the boys think they'd rather not be clowns for Halloween, thankyouverymuch.
All the work. My goodness. I'd have to sell it for a small fortune just to pay myself minimum wage for all the hours that went into it. It might be faster the second time around, but I can't really gauge whether I want to make one again or not. Sort of I do. Just to prove I can be faster and better and smarter about the whole thing. Then again, I think the entire household might fall apart if I spend any more evenings curled up with my sewing machine, making clown costumes that nobody wants to wear or buy anytime soon. That's the problem with not having a business plan, right? I'm just sort of randomly making stuff for the love or the experience. Which is fun, but not business savvy. I'm just not sure being business savvy is going to fill my creative desire, you know?

Want Your Kids to Be Successful? Don't Quit Your Day Job, Says Harvard Study
Listen up, working moms. It's time to put your guilt-ridden thoughts aside and start celebrating the fact that you are a mother with a thriving career, because children of working moms are more successful than their peers. Says who? Harvard Business School, that's who. Here's what you need to know.
(Photo Credit: The Community – Pop Culture Geek/Flickr)
The recent Harvard Business School study, spearheaded by Kathleen L. McGinn, Cahners-Rabb Professor of Business Administration at Harvard Business School, discovered that daughters of working mothers are more likely to not only hold full-time jobs, but also to hold supervisory positions and earn more money (roughly 23 percent more) than daughters of stay-at-home mothers. Furthermore, the study found that sons of working mothers were more likely to lend a helping hand around the house and also devote more time their families.
The study examined data collected in 2002 and again in 2012 from the International Social Survey Programme from 13,326 women and 18,152 men from 24 developed nations. The HBS study used this data "to find out whether growing up with a working mom influenced several factors, including employment, supervisory responsibility, earnings, allocation of household work, and care for family members."
"It didn't matter to us if she [the working mother] worked for a few months one year, or worked 60 hours per week," said McGinn. The research was more focused on whether or not these respondents had a role model mother who taught them that "women work both inside and outside the home."
Far too many working mothers hold on to a great deal of guilt because they feel they are neglecting or abandoning their children for their careers. However, the HBS study indicates that working mothers actually benefit their children by showing them that their mothers can be great parents while pursuing their careers.
McGinn insists that working parents are not only helping themselves professionally and their families financially, but helping their kids in the long run by setting a realistic example of what the modern-day, dual-income household looks like now.
In short, that working-mother thing you're doing, well, you're doing it right. So, put your fears aside that you're damaging your children by holding down a career, because you're actually training them to become a superhero just like you.

I run across this post, just as my 5yr old asks me if I can retire now so we can spend more special time together before she has to work all the time.
@and. FALSE. no such thing as typical working mom – could be from a lower income household where 2 parents need to work to earn money for the family. if the mom is educated and makes > 100k then its rare that she would stay home. this would show kids you can work and be a great mom too
I am pretty sure this study is missing out on a giant hidden variable – the typical working mom is educated and comes from a stable and affluent family. Once you take out that bias, and compare identical situations in which both moms are educated and had stable childhoods, I am willing to bet the children of the stay-at-home moms would kick ass. The only way it can go wrong is if the stay-at-home mom is clueless and overbearing on the children – this can actually hamper them.

The Nikon D5100 Review Blog Announces Web-based Debut!
The Nikon D5100 Review blog site has today revealed its official on line presence at [http://d5100reviews.net]. Its intention is to deliver continuous help and support for Nikon digital camera users, letting them fully understand everything brand new out there through unbiased evaluations of the advantages and disadvantages of varied versions of the unit along with its many add-ons.
In its first write-up, the site offers a completely no holds barred review of the popular Nikon D5100 digital, which it also features as its "Deal of the Day" item.
There's no question there are many digital cameras for both digital photography professionals and also buffs to select from, but according to the Nikon D5100 Reviewer, there's one specific model that's recently been creating a huge amount of noise within the photography circuit.
That is the Nikon D5100, which he's claiming can easily generate amazingly clear photographs at all times, even during low light scenarios.
The reviewer also states that based on his own evaluation as well as using the Nikon D5100 model, the digital camera will even take pictures as high as 4 frames per second, this means the operator won't at any time have to be concerned about missing out on a photograph.
The analysis points towards the essential 3 major reasons that provide users cause to celebrate the Nikon D5100 camera system:
1. Features: 16.2 mega-pixel image sensor that not only just shoots magnificent images but jaw dropping HD Video. The D5100 comes with an vari-angle Live view screen monitor, which means the screen can easily flip out, back, forth, and to very nearly any angle imaginable. This will make taking self-portraits straightforward. In addition it permits the user a fantastic view point when taking everyday snapshots.
2. Effects: The Nikon D5100 Effects mode enables users to edit and convert both images as well as movies without making use of any really expensive computer software. The owner can even make a slide show directly on the camera screen.
3. Overall: The Nikon D5100 is a amazing digital slr, which offers the identical functions as the high-priced D7000. If the buyer is seeking a brand new digital camera at a amazing price, then the Nikon D5100 simply cannot be beat.
According to the Los Angeles, California based camera reviewer, this site is also specifically for locating the best deals on the Nikon D5100 Camera, as well as making any one appear to be a professional photographer.

How Do I Create A Branded Content
Creating exciting, engaging, and entertaining branded content can ultimately be a fun and rewarding marketing process. When branded content is matched seamlessly with the right media tools and placed in the most appropriate marketing channels, it will reach the targeted audience and mean success for the marketer. Whether short films, radio spots or interactive games, branded marketing is an innovative way to reach a generation of buyers who aren't always captured by more traditional methods of marketing.
However, just like any other content-based marketing, creating branded content means the marketer needs insight into what their targeted audience really wants to know about their brand, products, and services. If they arrive at this based on guesswork, they can risk spending endless hours creating content that falls flat and does not engage new buyers. Marketers need reliable data about what content is most effective in order to generate great branded content.
Captora's data-driven technology applies algorithms to all of your web traffic, content, and even your competitors' information, giving you measurable results on the content that is most effective. With Captora, marketers can direct branded content marketing investments based on real demand signals and gain valuable insight into what content to create, where to place it, and how to engage buyers.

Ever since I started using a computer, I started using recipe management software. That was a long time ago … and that first software is long gone! When I began blogging, I started looking for a recipe manager that would fit my needs to organize recipes I create for my blog as well as recipes I find online. I tried various things for various amounts of time, all web-based managers, but none of them had the strength I needed. I wanted web-based because it allowed me to access from any gadget I owned. I wanted something that would let me categorize online recipes, enter my own recipes, keep photos and nutrition information, allow me to plan weekly menus, and export menus to grocery lists. Nothing I tried in the first 2 years did all of these things, or did them less than well.
Then I got smart and looked for an app that would let me accomplish the "view from anywhere" concept. I found a couple, and finally decided to give Paprika Recipe Manager a try.
I love it … LOVE it.
And … no, Paprika isn't paying me to say that. Although I would gladly let them if they wanted to!
Paprika Recipe Manager Overview
Paprika was only available for Apple products when I first downloaded it. Now, however, it is available for PC and Android, as well as Nook and Kindle. Cost is minimal considering annual subscriptions fees I had been paying. You'll shell out between $3 and $5 for phone or tablet apps and $20 for the computer version. That said, I have it loaded on two Macs and only paid once. It was worth the extra money to have it on my phone (for the grocery list) and tablet (for access in the kitchen … and anywhere else). They all work seamlessly together and sync as soon as I open the app.
Paprika Recipe View
This is a screenshot of my Ethnic recipe category. I love that I can create categories that work for me, and it's easy to move recipes into new or additional categories.
Adding a recipe from the internet is easy, too. I usually just copy and paste the URL into Paprika. If you're working from an iPad and copy a URL then open Paprika, it will recognize the URL and ask if you want to load it … no "paste" necessary.
This is a recipe on my blog loaded into Paprika's web browser.
If you click "Save Recipe", you get this …
You can make adjustments, add notes or more information, and select categories. Then simply save the recipe and it will appear in your recipe box.
Paprika Meals View
Here's a menu sample … I just have a few items here to show you. It's easy … when you're looking at a recipe, you can select a calendar icon, select the date for your meal and choose to add items to your grocery list. I love it! Did I say that already?
I also leave notes on my weekly meals view … mostly about what to serve with a meal if I don't have a recipe … or if I just want crusty bread with my soup.
A new feature is "menu" creation. I haven't created any, but this would be nice for dinner parties and holiday meals. Paprika lets you name the menu, add notes, then select the recipes to include. From there, create your Thanksgiving grocery list! Incidentally, when you add a recipe to the grocery list, you can select only the items you really need.
This is a pretty intuitive program … easy to learn and very user friendly. If you're not sure about the full desktop version of Paprika Recipe Manager… spend the $5 for the tablet app. I think you'll be quite happy you did.

Dr. Patrick Slane from the Chandra X-ray Center recently shared some information on the G292.0+1.8 supernova remnant with NASA's museum alliance. Part II of this conversation talks more on what we're seeing in the Chandra image....
The aftermath of the death of a massive star is shown in beautiful detail in this new composite image of G292.0+1.8. In color is the Chandra X-ray Observatory image - easily the deepest X-ray image ever obtained of this supernova remnant - and in white is optical data from the Digitized Sky Survey. Although considered a "textbook" case of a supernova remnant, the intricate structure shown here reveals a few surprises.
Dr. Patrick Slane from the Chandra X-ray Center recently shared some information on the G292.0+1.8 supernova remnant with NASA's museum alliance. We think you'll find it useful too:
Well, it's finally time for us to dip our X-ray toe (yes, we claim all things high-energy) into the world of blogging. This current incarnation is our attempt to work out the technology while we experiment with content. The plan is to include such topics as the most recent image or press release, new innovations on the website, and the latest in our formal education efforts.
This messy collision of galaxy clusters is about 2.4 billion light years from Earth.

A lot of kids (and maybe adults) are scared of the dark. Most of us get over it once we realize there isn't a monster hiding in the closet or under the bed. But then scientists announce another finding about dark matter and we all are back peering from under the sheets.
