“I acted as a project manager this year (2016) for textbook submissions for Grade 8 and 9 books for Zebra Publishers in Namibia. The work included the commissioning and development of a new Afrikaans First Language Course. Late in March the MD of Zebra Publishing contacted me to ask
whether it might be possible to adapt the Afrikaans course for English as well. This was a daunting challenge. It would require not only direct translation but at least a third of the Afrikaans reading text and grammar work would have to be creatively reworked.
I could think of only one translation company to entrust with such a project: BLC
They had assisted me with translations for the South African curriculum when I worked on contract for Oxford University Press as a Senior Commissioning Editor a few years ago.
For the Zebra project, BLC did a combination of translation, development, creative translation and research work. The total volume of the text delivered between 2 and 20 April was 150 835 words.
Han Sapire from BLC managed the entire translation project. Han also checked and proofread all translations before they were submitted to me, freeing me up to focus on getting the manuscripts set and checking page proofs before the submission date. They also followed my instructions to
retain the styling of the original Afrikaans, which enabled the setters to run in the English smoothly over the existing Afrikaans layouts.
The project was a success, both in terms of quality and meeting tight deadlines, thanks to the following on BLC’s side.
• Willingness to accommodate our budget.
• Excellent project management
• Large database of reliable, tried and tested translators.
• Understanding of book production processes and technical requirements.
• Ability to find creative solutions to translation challenges.
• Total reliability.
It is therefore a great pleasure to recommend BLC to any company or organization looking for an excellent translation partner.

On The Page: LMPR’s Favourite Books Under the Tree
'Tis the season, for both a busy arts and culture sector, and upcoming festivities. In the LMPR office, between promotions, each of us is considering our gift list for friends and family. We share with you our favourite books to give – and receive – this Christmas, in the hope our suggestions help to fill a stocking or two (and not just ours!).
Laura Murray – Various Titles
On my Christmas Wish list this year are two books that I've been meaning to add to my library after receiving strong recommendations for both!
Thinking with Type, by Ellen Lupton
I’m obsessed with great design. And typographic style and originality is truly at the core of great design, especially as we shift rapidly from print culture to screen culture. From the latest style sheets for print and the web, to the essentials on mixing typefaces and hand lettering, the now-classic Thinking with Type: A Critical Guide for Designers, Writers, Editors, & Students is a visually-driven guide to using typography in visual communication, from the printed page to the computer screen.
The Participatory Museum, by Nina K Simon
Recommended by a fellow marketer following her attendance at the annual National Arts Marketing Project (NAMP) Conference, The Participatory Museum is touted as a practical guide to working with community members and visitors to make cultural institutions more dynamic, relevant, essential places. Although Simon was initially speaking directly to her museum colleagues when she penned the book, her professional expertise and insights will be equally engaging to others interested in the how, why, and where people connect socially. Throughout, Simon offers innovative design techniques and case studies to make a powerful case for participatory practice.
Brian Paterson – The Where, The Why, and The How,
by Matt Lamothe
The Where, the Why, and the How is a book that came on my radar this year and beautifully checked off a name or two on my list.
It bridges art and science in a delightfully unique way that spoke to me and will (hopefully!) resonate with my loved ones.
To create it, a trio of authors commissioned 75 contemporary artists to provide illustrations for some scientific mysteries and phenomena. They also recruited top scientific minds from UBC and CERN, among others, to provide insightful accompanying descriptions.
Through the beautiful, quirky, and though-provoking artwork, it explores principles of physics, questions about the natural world, aspects of the human body, and more.
What's more – it even has a well-crafted trailer!
Angela Poon – A Light in the Attic, by Shel Silverstein
Many years ago, my husband and I started a tradition with family friends in which we’d give a special book at Christmas for all three kids to enjoy. Every year has been a delight, but last year’s gift of A Light in the Attic, by Shel Silverstein, created a night full of such happy memories that I’ll never forget it. With the book of beloved children’s poems – some sweet, most silly – lain across my lap, all three kids leaned in and read poems for hours. One particular favourite called “Hurk” had each and every one of us on centre stage that night, reciting the poem to an audience full of wonder and giggles.
Hurk, by Shel Silverstein
I’d rather play tennis than go to the dentist
I’d rather play soccer than go to the doctor
I’d rather play Hurk than go to work
Hurk? Hurk? What’s Hurk?
Zoe Grams – Artful, by Ali Smith
Books I want for Christmas? Now there’s the question. Around this time each year, my family would launch a book-buying moratorium to save exasperation over ever-increasing wish lists.
Top of this year’s requests is the dazzling Ali Smith’s Artful. Not quite fiction, not quite essays, its four sections focus on life, style, love, mortality, and what art and writing can mean. I have heard it described by the most critical of reviewers as warm, genius, and even heroic: “a seductive and compelling case for the power of the imagination.” I’m looking forward to becoming acquainted with one of the most interesting writers published today.
As for what I'm giving this year – that's between me and the tree until December 25.


Since its inception in 1984, The Criterion Collection has been a vital voice in the home video distribution of films. From silent-era classics all the way to overlooked modern day releases, nearly every film in the company’s library is essential viewing (yes, including THE ROCK). While many of its films are available to stream through various services, the physical media editions of their films are so jam-packed with special features such as commentaries and interviews that even a small slice of their library is still a font of film knowledge. Every once in awhile, the company partners with Barnes & Noble to sell their films at half-price, which is almost crazy-making, since the films are usually worth the full list price. Running from now until July 28, the trickiest part of the sale is sometimes winnowing down what to buy, but fear not! If you’re the type of person who trusts me, here are some of my favorites from the company, in no particular order. Screenshots from DVD Beaver, a great site for reviews and comparisons of Blu-Ray releases.
- BRAZIL - Okay, I lied, this one is in order. On the right day, Terry Gilliam’s BRAZIL is my favorite movie of all time. A masterpiece of world-building, Gilliam, who cut his teeth on the Monty Python films, creates a dystopic future where bureaucracy has run amok. In a case of life imitating art, the release of the film was held up by a debate between Gilliam and releasing studio Universal Pictures about the final cut of the film, with the studio backing a dramatically shortened version of the film the completely changes the film tonally. Gilliam countered by holding secret screenings of his cut of the film for the press, who then championed his version until it was ultimately released. The release has both cuts of the film as well as a feature-length documentary on the tumultuous process of getting Gilliam’s film out to audiences.
- 8 ½ - One of the greatest films about film, writer/director Federico Fellini’s story of a film director who reminisces about the women in his life as he struggles to find a trajectory for his latest project threatens to eat itself, but instead is a beautiful, at times surreal adventure. Also, this:
- BLOW OUT - A masterful work from Brian DePalma, an absurdly young John Travolta is a sound engineer for a b-movie studio who is out recording samples one night when he becomes a witness to car accident that claims the life of a senator with presidential ambitions. He manages to save the passenger of the car, and from there the accident’s more sinister underpinnings begin to reveal themselves. Featuring great work from John Friggin’ Lithgow as a killer for hire, the film’s threatening to supplant INDEPENDENCE DAY as my favorite film set around Independence Day, in case you were wondering how much I love it slash am a slave to childhood nostalgia.
It was only in his last moments that Tim realized how Frank Floweringboner earned his name.
- CLOSE-UP - Wait, when I said 8 ½ threatens to eat itself, I forgot that I still had to get to this film. Director Abbas Kiarostami found out about a trial where a man was arrested for impersonating famous Iranian film director Mohsen Makhmalbaf and tricking a family into thinking that he was going to include them in an upcoming work. He then managed to get in touch with all the parties and got them to agree to recreate their various interactions to create a pseudo-documentary of the events that transpired, integrating it with footage of the trial after the family found out about the ruse and took the impostor to court. And that’s BEFORE the real Makhmalbaf shows up. Brilliant stuff.
Steven Tyler pays a visit to some adoring fans.
- HOUSE - The work of a literal insane person, director Nobuhiko Kobayashi’s film about a group of Japanese teens who visit the house of one of their aunts only to find that the aunt, her pet cat and, really, the house, are out to eat them. As in consume them. And it only gets more unhinged from there. Full of astounding in-camera and practical effects, this film was originally buried by the studio, only to be released due to popular demand. There’s a parallel dimension three slots over where this film is a midnight movie staple, and the world’s a generally better place for it.
**PERSONA** - Right from the first few seconds, Ingmar Bergman’s PERSONA plants itself right on the line between the tangible and the abstract. There’s a special feature on the disc devoted entirely to the prologue of the film, which is a jarring series of shots, snapping the viewer to attention for what is to come. The film is about an actress who is suddenly stricken mute, and the trip that she and her nurse take out to the seaside. While out there, the nurse becomes emotionally open with the actress, using her as a sounding board for a lifetime full of frustrations. The film at times breaks the fourth wall, becoming unsettlingly self-aware of its own existence, as the relationship between the two women begins to fracture.
- THE RED SHOES - The beneficiary of an extensive restoration, THE RED SHOES has never looked better. A tale of the ultimate commitment to one’s craft, the film has served as inspiration to the likes of Scorsese and Spielberg, which, while a narrow range of the phonebook, is its own volume in the history of American film. Containing the rare ballet-within-a-tale, dancer Victoria Page is forced to choose between the role of a lifetime and the love of her life when offered the chance to be the star of a dance company headed by the famous Boris Lermontov while also in the throes of a relationship with the company’s conductor, Julian Craster. The disc features a fascinating short on the restoration process for the film.
- THE NIGHT OF THE HUNTER - One of the greatest American horror films, Robert Mitchum is a monster as Harry Powell, a jailbird who finds out from his soon-to-be-executed cellmate that the condemned has a stash of money hidden away, and only his children know the location of the cash. Upon Powell’s release, he seeks out the family and woos the widow of the robber, posing as a traveling preacher. By exploring themes such as the hypocrisy of the pious, it’s easy to see why the film was poorly received upon its release in the 50s, as Mitchum conceals his deadly intentions behind parables, including a famous scene where he explains the “LOVE” and “HATE” tattoos on his knuckles that would later be paraphrased in Spike Lee’s DO THE RIGHT THING. The only disappointing thing about this film is that it did so poorly that director Charles Laughton made his first film his only film.
- ON THE WATERFRONT - Most famous for Marlon Brando’s “could have been a contender” monologue, one of the more interesting features in the entire Criterion collection is the presentation of this film in different aspect ratios. At the time of its creation, Elia Kazan’s film about former boxer Terry Malloy, who takes a job as a dock worker and eventually becomes at odds with the union boss, was filmed with its multiple viewing venues of theaters and television in mind, as many of the shots are framed to work at both wide and full-screen ratios.
- TOKYO STORY - By far the most recognizable work of Japanese director Yasujiro Ozu, an elderly Japanese couple travel from their home in the countryside to visit their city-dwelling children, only to realize that they have become pushed to the fringes of their offspring’s lives. The film is still as relevant today, maybe even more so than upon its release, only now technology has enabled people to substitute the Facebook like for actual human interaction, thus making moments of genuine, simple kindness all the more affecting.
- Anything from Wes Anderson - All right, now that we’re outside what could be considered a top ten, here’s the part where I cheat. Any film from Wes Anderson in the Criterion Collection, from his debut BOTTLE ROCKET to the most recent inclusion FANTASTIC MR. FOX, is worth owning. As the filmmaker with one of, if not the most, recognizable style working today, Anderson can be a polarizing figure, but for everyone on his wavelength, his films are a master class in world-building. Also as a side recommendation: critic Matt Zoller Seitz’s THE WES ANDERSON COLLECTION, a book featuring essays breaking down Anderson’s work and influences.
- Anything from Charlie Chaplin - Any film of Chaplin’s in the collection could be considered essential, from the simple delight of CITY LIGHTS or MODERN TIMES, to the incisive commentary of THE GREAT DICTATOR. Though many of his best works were created after the advent of sound in cinema, Chaplin’s films achieved a kind of grace that even films that few films, silent or no, could find.
- Anything from Akira Kurosawa - Oh, not much really, just SEVEN SAMURAI, RASHOMON, YOJIMBO, SANJURO, HIGH AND LOW, THRONE OF BLOOD, KAGEMUSHA, THE HIDDEN FORTRESS and I’m surprised you’re still here. One of the greatest, most influential directors of all time, with definitive home video releases of his greatest works. Start with the first two mentioned, and then it’s really a free skate from there.
- Anything from Terrence Malick - Malick has three films in the collection, and all of them are worth your time, from his debut feature BADLANDS, to the singular DAYS OF HEAVEN to his anti-war war film THE THIN RED LINE, all the releases feature best-in-class video and audio. My favorite, DAYS OF HEAVEN, sees Richard Gere as a steel worker who leaves Chicago with his sister and girlfriend after getting into a fight with a supervisor. The three of them make their way out to a farm, where the owner becomes taken with Bill’s girlfriend, who is now posing as a second sister. After realizing the farmer is gravely ill, Bill encourages the relationship, believing that the farmer isn’t long for this world, and will leave his remaining earthly possessions to his future widow. That plan goes well, I’m pretty sure.
And the list above is just what’s left after tons of scrutinizing and procrastination. As I mentioned earlier, nearly everything that has received a release from The Criterion Collection is worth owning, and there are many others that I gave thought to highlighting before winding up with the list as presented. But I suppose those are for another day. For now…


I've never been to Duluth, but that's about to change. On Saturday, July 28 (the 209th day of 2012), Paper Darts is headed further north (yes, rest of the country, that's possible) to Duluth for the latest Zenith City Tales event at Teatro Zuccone, this time featuring a handful of (the best, duh) writers from the Twin Cities.
(Fact: Duluth is called "Zenith City" because in 1868 it was known as the "Zenith of the Unsalted Seas"—named so by a man called Thomas Foster. I assume that the "unsalted seas" refers to either just Lake Superior or all of the Great Lakes, but if I'm wrong, then both my high school and the internet have failed me. In nearly the same breath, Foster asserted that in the future, Duluth would be known as the "Chicago of Lake Superior," which I guess it is…having never been there, but only hearing good things about it—although, how's their deep-dish pizza? Way to call 'em, Thomas Foster!)
While you may know some of the readers, it's possible, but not probable, that you've seen them all perform (together, at least). Even if you have seen all of these readers say their snappy words on stage, why not do it in a new city, with new people, who have new hands to high-five, and butts to stare longingly at? Make the last 156 days of the year embarrassed that they have to follow July 28, 2012.
Reading for Duluth:
Heavy-hitting poet Louis Jenkins, whose poems have been published in a number of literary magazines and anthologies, including The Best American Poetry 1999, and Great American Prose Poems. His books of poetry include An Almost Human Gesture, All Tangled Up With the Living, Nice Fish: New and Selected Prose Poems, Just Above Water, The Winter Road, and Sea Smoke. His most recent books are North of the Cities (2007), European Shoes (2008), and Before You Know It: Prose Poems 1970-2005 (2009), all published by Will o' the Wisp Books. Mr. Jenkins was awarded two Bush Foundation Fellowships for poetry, a Loft-McKnight fellowship, and was the 2000 George Morrison Award winner. Louis Jenkins has read his poetry on A Prairie Home Companion and was a featured poet at the Geraldine R. Dodge Poetry Festival in 1996 and at the Aldeburgh Poetry Festival, Aldeburgh, England in 2007. Louis Jenkins is currently working with Mark Rylance, actor and former director of the Globe Theatre, London, on a stage production titled Nice Fish! based on Mr. Jenkins poems. There was a workshop performance of the work at Theatre Row, New York City, on December 15, 2008. The full play will premiere April 6, 2013 at the Guthrie Theater in Minneapolis.
Ryan Vine, whose honors include a Weldon Kees Award from the Backwaters Press, the Robert Watson Poetry Prize from the Greensboro Review, a Career Development Grant from the Arrowhead Regional Arts Council, and finalist nods for the Black Warrior Review Poetry Prize and the May Swenson Poetry Award from Utah State University Press. His poems and essays have appeared in The American Poetry Review, Ploughshares, The Writer’s Almanac, and the Star Tribune, among many other places. He’s the Rose Warner Assistant Professor of English at the College of St. Scholastica.
Andy Bennett, who has no business being featured in the same evening as the rest of these writers, is the Executive Director of Renegade Theater Company and the Booking Agent for the Teatro Zuccone, so he forced his way in. He's a recipient of a McKnight Artist Fellowship Grant from the Arrowhead Regional Arts Council and in his spare time he throws screenplays against the impenetrable wall of Hollywood, where they are met with copious notes from his agent and various producers, all of whom Andy thinks should try writing their own damn screenplay, if they're so smart.
Lucie Amundsen, a full spectrum writer dallying in the high fluting world of literature at her graduate program while being an ad agency copywriter—the burlesque dancing of the writing craft. But she prefers the term wordy pole dancer.
Reading for the Twin Cities:
Courtney Algeo (hey! that's me!).
The ever lovely and magical Maggie Ryan Sandford, a writer, performer, and regular science and humor writer for ComedyCentral.com, mental_floss magazine, and MPR's All Things Considered. She has performed onstage at the Guthrie Theater, the Upright Citizens Brigade, and People's Improv Theatres, and as part of MPR's Storycraft showcase with Kevin Kling. Her fiction can be seen in Paper Darts and in McSweeney's Book of Politics and Musicals, in stores now.
The tall and mysterious Dennis Cass, a former journalist who has written for NY Times Magzine, Harper's, and GQ, who is currently rebooting his career as a science fiction author. His new book will help average, everyday people with their android problems.
And the one, the only, John Jodzio. Winner of the Loft-McKnight Fellowship, his stories have appeared in McSweeney's, One Story, Barrelhouse, Opium, and numerous other places in print and online. He’s the author of the short story collection, If You Lived Here You'd Already Be Home (Replacement Press) and the recently released Get In If You Want To Live (Paper Darts Press).


by Spencer Moon
- This is the third year for Atlanta's Independent Black Film
- The festival was held March 12-19, 2006.
- Screened nearly 60 films
- There was a four to one ratio of narrative to documentary films.
- There was a three to one ratio of shorts (less than 60 minutes)
- More than a dozen awards were given including several audience-voted
- Over a dozen panels were held.
Opening night film was Tsotsi from South Africa,
the 2005 Academy Award Winner for Best Foreign Film. The film is
based on a novel by Athol Fugard. Written and directed by Gavin
Hood. After the festival, I spoke to a friend who attended this
opening night screening, which was sold out. Later, in talking to
them about the film they thought it was a documentary and said they
did not like it. For me that proves that the filmmakers have you
riveted with the images and ideas in this fiction work, much like
a compelling documentary.
Black Wheels. In conjunction with several new festival
sponsors including NASCAR as part of their "Fast Car Week,"
the festival screened a documentary titled Black Wheels. This 90
minute-film is from executive producer Tim Reid's Virginia based
New Millennium Studios. Reid also narrated the film. The film chronicles
the African American involvement in the history of motor sports
in America. The audience of over a hundred young people was treated
to gift bags and were able to view some fast cars in the parking
lot of the Auburn Avenue Research Library where the screening was
held. The film sheds light on many little known black drivers like
Wendell Scott, Charlie Wiggins, Bill Lester and a host of others.
Other notable films included:
Arthur! A celebration of life. 90 minutes. The docudrama
is about the tennis legend, humanitarian, author and world activist
Arthur Ashe. The film features actor, writer, producer and director
Joseph H. James, Jr.
Letter to the President. 90-minute documentary, directed
by Thomas Gibson and produced by Quincy Jones III. America's economic
policy of the last thirty years and the rise of hip hop in the last
decade. Narrated by Snoop Dogg.
Elephant Boy. 30-minute narrative, drama. Based on
the true story of an East Indian crippled beggar and his search
for love and acceptance. Directed by Rene Mohandras.
The Cole Nobody Knows. 26-minute documentary. Produced
and directed by local Atlanta filmmaker, Clay Walker. A loving portrait
of the vocalist/pianist and Atlanta native Freddy Cole.
Quilombo Country. 75 minute-documentary. Produced,
directed and edited by first time filmmaker Leonard Abrams. The
story of the contemporary descendents of African slaves who still
live in their hereditary lands called quilombos (and Angolan word
that means encampments). Today their fight is against, local politicians,
developers and socioeconomic discrimination. The film is a labor
of love shot over twenty weeks over a five year period. It is a
fascinating story of contemporary Brazil and the black Diaspora
experience from an entirely different perspective. Mr. Abrams works
in his day job as a copy editor. Let's hope it doesn't prevent him
from continuing to make films like this one.

Davao City library open from 7am to 7pm
The Davao City Library and Information Office will be implementing a new operating schedule to give the public more time to do research and access library facilities.
The scheme is seen to benefit more those who are attending review sessions and summer classes.
From the previous 8 am to 5 pm operating time, the library will be open from 7 am to 7 pm starting June 1.
Pedrita M. Badar, the officer-in-charge of the City Library and Information Office, said the decision to extend their operating time was in response to requests.
She said library clients had been asking for extension of the operating hours because the current schedule only provided them limited time to review notes and browse through supplemental reading materials.
Badar said there will also be no noonbreak for library staff under the new 12-hour operating time.
“This is to give maximum service to our clients,” she said.
“To students and professionals who are continuing their studies, they can stay at the library after office hours,” Badar said.
She said despite the extended operating hour, employees will still render the mandatory 8-hour service, which means some of the employees will come early while others will be asked to report later.
A memorandum covering the adjustment will be issued by the Human Resource Management office as some staff will be required to report at 7 am, while some at 10am.
Badar’s office has also been reaching out to outskirt villages through the mobile library, giving communities 7-day access to books and other multimedia materials on a rotation basis.
One of the 10 sectors prioritized by Mayor Inday Sara Duterte is education. CIO

Here are a few of my highlighted works.
THE RELUCTANT WAR GOD BOOK ONE
When you're a war god, it's tough to quit the family business.
Carl is known by many names on many realities. He’s immortal, a war god capable of horrific destruction, but he grew tired of killing and quit the family business long ago. He traded divine genocide for playing music in honky-tonks, inns, and backwater roadhouses.
But no matter how he tries to avoid them, his family just won’t leave him alone. Now the family needs him to save creation from a soul-eating menace from the dark heart of chaos.
Only one problem - to avoid becoming a monster, he must not use his powers....
WAR GOD BLUES
THE RELUCTANT WAR GOD BOOK TWO
Sometimes when you get what you want, you lose everything.
All Carl wanted to do was retire as a war god. An eternity of death and destruction in a thousand realities has turned him against all the gods and convinced him that humanity was better of without them.
But when he loses his divinity and his magical weapons he can't celebrate. They've been taken by a power-hungry fool who has no idea of the damage that will be released upon the world. But how can Carl, now mortal, challenge a god?

The Books Briefing: Peter Frankopan, Ed Yong
As the new ecological status quo emerges, well all need to rethink our place on the planet: Your weekly guide to the best in books For millennia, human society has been organized around the predictable march of the seasons: The weather has controlled what we eat, where we live, what we wear. But as the climate changes, the world we adapted to is being disrupted. In his new book, The Earth Transformed , Peter Frankopan tells the story of civilization through this lens, showing how people in the past responded to and were ruled by meteorological conditions. What the book ultimately reveals, Verlyn Klinkenborg wrote this week, is that were as foolish and catastrophically inattentive as any societyor global collection of societiesbefore us. The one difference is that we live in an era of dramatic, unprecedented warming caused by human activity. And the planets climate is not the only thing that has changed: Our loud, brightly lit modern way of life has drastic consequences for other species, Ed Yong writes in An Immense World . Light pollution disrupts birds; noise pollution upsets whales. As Tatiana Schlossberg pointed out last year, animals are dying and species are vanishing ; consequently, we can no longer predict what the world will look like when our children grow up. The books she reads to her young son mention kangaroos, crocodiles, and tigers. Will those creatures one day feel as fantastical as the fictional characters he loves, such as Custard the dragon? In literature, climate collapse used to be the province of speculative fiction. Today, its an unavoidable part of life, showing up in kitchen-sink dramas, comedies, and mysteries, as Heather Hansman notes . Writers have even begun to experiment with new ways to write about plants and animals . Elvia Wilks book Death by Landscape shows that this might be a good thing. Giving more space to the weird can help us reconsider our relationships to nature, Michael Friedrich argues. As the new ecological status quo emerges, well all need to keep adjusting our expectations and rethinking our place on the planet. Every Friday in the Books Briefing , we thread together Atlantic stories on books that share similar ideas. Know other book lovers who might like this guide? Forward them this email. When you buy a book using a link in this newsletter, we receive a commission. Thank you for supporting The Atlantic . JOHN THYS / AFP / Getty; Museum of the City of New York / Getty A force that has shaped the history of the world The question is no longer whether climate change can influence the scale and force of an individual hurricane or typhoon. Of course it can. We see it happening as storms intensify all around us. Global warming is affecting nearly every Earth system, including polar-ice conditions, monsoon cycles, ocean temperature, and the dynamics of the major ocean currents and oscillations. Its bringing an end to what the poet Marianne Moore once called the unegoistic action of the glaciers. What use is history in this context? Shayan Asgharnia for The Atlantic How light and noise pollution confound animals senses We have instigated what some scientists have called an era of biological annihilation, comparable to the five great mass-extinction events of prehistory. But we have also filled the silence with noise and the night with light. This often ignored phenomenon is called sensory pollutionhuman-made stimuli that interfere with the senses of other species. By barraging different animals with stimuli of our own making, we have forced them to live in our Umwelt. We have distracted them from what they actually need to sense, drowned out the cues they depend upon, and lured them into sensory traps. Rop van Mierlo Will childrens books become catalogs of the extinct? Whales arent the only threatened storybook animals. We are going to lose Gorilla and Brown Bear, Brown Bear , says Hillary Young , a community ecologist and professor at UC Santa Barbara who studies our biodiversity crisis and is a mother of three. But were also losing Frog and Toad and the Very Hungry Caterpillar, because our loss of animal life is so deep and pervasive. Lori Nix As the climate changes, so does fiction The books below arent about climate changetheyre about immigration, corporate malfeasance, and tourism; they focus on families, neighbors, and friends. But in each, the anxieties of our warming age force their way in, simmering quietly in the background or erupting across the page. Internet Archive; Joanne Imperio / The Atlantic The way we talk about nature is getting weirder As we live through the Anthropocene, our current epoch of human-made disaster, a new book, Elvia Wilks Death by Landscape , argues compellingly that giving more space to the weird can help us reconsider our relationships to natureand, even in the face of institutional inertia, exercise greater responsibility to each other.

The artist's work in progress of modern Biblical illuminations with commentary includes over seven hundred pieces of art and commentary to date.
Lewis Manilow, former President of the Museum of Contemporary Art in Chicago, wrote of this work as,"..artistically and spiritually extraordinary. The quality is so high and the vision so strong that I find it an astounding achievement."
Christian author and theologian Dr. Martin E. Marty, Professor Emeritus at the University of Chicago wrote of this work: "Anyone can do illustrations and anyone can have devotion, but to conceive of the wedding of these two as [Charlotte Hart] has in drawings and paintings, each of which has a surprising independence of the others and yet all of which are related because they are prismed through a single consciousness with a single intention, is quite a heroic venture."


Recently two original manuscripts by the English composer, Gustav Holst, were found in the Symphonia’s music archive.
In our concert, Lost and Found, these lost works - missing for more than 100 years - came to life! Symphonia orchestra joined with the Scholars Pro Musica (now Scholars Baroque Aotearoa) in a programme centred on the exciting discovery, including music by other influential English composers of the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
Holst’s two rediscovered orchestral pieces are Folk Songs from Somerset and Two Songs Without Words. Other works included Delius’s On Hearing the First Cuckoo in Spring, and Summer Night on the River. Parry’s grand Blest Pair of Sirens and Elgar’s romantic Spanish Serenade featured the Scholars Pro Musica alongside the Symphonia orchestra. The choir also presented a selection of unaccompanied songs by Vaughan Williams and other composers of the period.
Conducted by Justus Rozemond with guest conductor Chalium Poppy.
Dr Bronya Dean presented a free pre-concert talk, explaining more about the discovery of the Holst manuscripts and their importance to music lovers and musicologists, as well as the Bay of Plenty Symphonia's plans for their future care.

Since the passage of Title IX in 1972, the number of girls playing sports has gone from one in twenty-five to one in three. Yet some people still cling to the notion that girls are simply not as interested in sports as boys. Research by the Women's Sports Foundation, however, proves otherwise: a recent study of pre-adolescent boys and girls (those between the ages of 6 and 9), shows that they are equally interested in playing sports.
By age 12, girls are six times more likely to drop out of sports than boys. Why? One of the reasons, say experts, is that girls simply do not receive as much positive reinforcement about their sports participation as boys. Boys get to see male athletes on televised sports; they can see their photos in newspapers and magazines; and there are plenty of books for boys about male sports heroes. Boys learn at a very young age that it is not only okay to enjoy sports but that their success will be supported by their families and society. Girls see far fewer female athletes on television; coverage of women's sports in newspapers and magazines, while increasing, is far less than that given to men's college and professional sports. There are very few books for girls about female sports heroes that girls can read as they grow up; athletes whose success our daughters will want emulate and see as role models.
Books About Female Athletes: Filling The Gap
With this in mind, my husband and I have written a children's book series, Anything You Can Do... New Sports Heroes For Girls. The books recount the childhood experiences of elite female athletes, but, just as important, they provide insight into the unique obstacles such women confronted as girls playing sports - issues that, even today, most young girls still face.
Volume One in the series, A Drive to Win: The Story of Hall of Fame Basketball Player Nancy Lieberman-Cline, tells the inspiring story of women's basketball's first superstar, Nancy Lieberman Cline, whose flashy passing during her college career at Old Dominion University two decades ago not only earned her the nickname "Lady Magic" but helped pave the way for the growth of college women's basketball and the subsequent birth of a women's professional basketball league, the WNBA (where Leiberman-Kline coached for two seasons). The following excerpt from the book tells of how, determined to pursue her basketball dreams despite her family's misgivings, Leiberman-Kline went to play for an AAU basketball team in the inner city:
Excerpt From The Book
* * *
It was a tough time for the young, aspiring athlete. Most of the girls made fun of her, and no one in her family really took her sports seriously. It would have been great to have her parents or grandparents in the stands watching games, like other kids had.
Nancy used to ask her mom all the time about coming to see her play basketball. "Can you take me to practice?" she would ask. "I have a game tonight. Do you want to watch me play?" Nancy would ask her mom. But her mom always seemed to have an excuse. She had to make dinner or stay home with Cliff. It was hard for Nancy that her mom just didn't get it, and didn't want to be there cheering for Nancy.
When Nancy was 13, someone special did come to watch her at a school tournament. He was very impressed with what he saw, and he came to talk to her after the game.
"Nancy, my name is LaVosier Lama , and I coach an A.A.U. team of basketball players in Manhattan. You should come and play with us. We do pretty well in the A.A.U. competitions. Come see us. Play a little ball with us. We're up in Harlem. I can meet you at the train."
Nancy didn't hesitate because she had heard how good these girls were. "Great" she said. "Just tell me which subway to take." And the big, teddy- bear of a man started to laugh.
Nancy started taking the "A" train after school, from Far Rockaway into Harlem. It was still New York, but it was a whole different world. This was the inner city - with all its noise and crowds of people. Her mother had begged her not to go to Harlem all by herself. She was afraid for her young daughter, all alone, and a stranger to that part of New York City.
When she got to her stop, Lamar would be waiting to walk her to the park or the gym. She was always the only white girl there. But, with a basketball in her hands, Nancy felt like she fit right in. Coach Lamar taught Nancy a lot about playing competitive basketball. But, most important of all, he taught her to accept and respect all kinds of people - no matter where they came from.
The team Lamar coached was the New York Chuckles. The Chuckles were one of the best teams in the city. They called the new, white girl with the red hair and the flashy basketball style - "Fire." She quickly took her place as one of the best on the court. She would join any game that was playing. Everybody soon knew about the fantastic basketball player from Queens. Coach Lamar called Nancy the "queen" of Harlem; she was the player who could "get it all done."

What exactly is courage? And what does it mean to be courageous? Four friends, frog, mouse, snail and bird meet on the riverbank and challenge each other to a competition in being brave. But soon it becomes clear that what represents overcoming a huge fear for one of them is no big deal for the other. In his staging of the well-known children's book 'Mutig,Mutig as a dance, piece choreographer Lin Verleger shows what fear does to the body and what unusual forms courage can take.


Week 1 – September 10, 2018
The Authority and the Culture of the Role of the Attorney General
Syllabus: The Role of the State Attorney General
This first week explores the nature of the authority and the culture that pervades offices of attorney general. The first chapter of Walter Mondale's The Good Fight, which covers Mondale's time as the Attorney General of Minnesota over 50 years ago, serves as an introduction to the Role of the Attorney General. Used with the permission (and to the personal delight) of the author, this edited chapter combines almost all aspects of the office of attorney general, e.g., the common law, statutory authority, conflicting legal and policy demands, resource restriction, the role of academics and outside counsel, hard core partisan politics and personal ambition. The chapter is also testimony that for all of the changes in the legal and political world, some things remain remarkably the same.
Also included in this first week are edited sections of Paul Wilson's "A Time to Lose, Representing Kansas in Brown v. Board of Education," that depict a very different side of state attorney general authority that is also covered in the course.
The first week also contains readings that describe state "parens patriae" and the duty of state attorneys general to represent all the people of their states and not be limited to representing a specific state agency. Finally, it contains the reflections of two attorneys general who left office at the end of 2014.

The story of Jesus and Barabbas is a parable of the Gospel: A living illustration of the innocent dying in place of the guilty, the just for the unjust. In his message titled, "A Parable of the Gospel" taken from Mark 15:1-15, Pastor Brian Brodersen shares that the Gospel of Jesus Christ is for everyone. No matter how great the sin, the blood of Jesus is greater still. For the heart of the Gospel is His life for ours.

Flamin’s hot director, Eva Longoria, discusses the challenges of filming Cheetos’s biography and the key themes she is trying to convey.
photograph Flamin hot, According to Eva Longoria, the biography of Richard Montagnes, creator of Flamin Hot Limon, presents several challenges. Longoria made her start in Hollywood as an actress.She is best known for her eight years of work Desperate Housewives As Gabrielle Solis.. The actress became a producer and director using her feet on the Hollywood door.She has executive produce Devious Maids, Telenovela, And more than that, she used her career to grow a Mexican-American artist.
now, As Longoria directs Flamin hot, She faces new challenges.While talking to varietyShe said one of the challenges was how hot it was to shoot in the middle of the summer in New Mexico. Aside from the weather, she saidStay true to the theme of the movie.“The viewer may think that the movie titled after Cheetos is not that deep, but it is said that the movie really has a heartfelt message: the story of Montagnes’ wealth and what he said. It tells how the American Dream was achieved with Flamin’s Hot Cheetos. Longoria says the main theme of the biography is “Opportunities are not evenly distributed.“The full comment on Longoria can be read below:
“Perhaps the biggest challenge was to make sure that we were true to the movie’s theme of not evenly distributing opportunities. And when that happened, you doubled the effort and doubled the length. And you have to do twice as good. And you still have to be patient and the story is so much. It’s a rag to wealth, it’s American Dream 101, it’s It’s about patience, it’s about the weak, but after all, it’s also about the perspective of one person and the struggle within themselves, so it’s a beautiful and beautiful biography. “
These challenges were only amplified by the accusations that Montagnes decorated how involved in the creation of flamin hot cheetos. Longoria acknowledged these accusations and firmly supported Montagnes, saying that the allegations were only added to the list of shooting difficulties. Her priority in writing this biography is to remain “real” to the true story she felt she had done, demonstrating the success of Montagnes and the Mexican-American community.

A GOOD READ: Tahnaya Fenwick with her illustrated children’s book. Picture: Michael FrogleyTHE amazing Higher School Certificate design and technology projects on exhibition in Wagga could be the answer to some troubling social, economic and industrial dilemmas.
But former Kooringal High School student Tahnaya Fenwick may well have solved the most irksome question of them all: what happened to the missing sock in the washing machine?
Apparently, Spike the dinosaur takes them.
At least that is the case with Jye, a fictional character in a children’s book written by Tahnanya for her HSC design and technology major work last year.
Tahnaya’s book Jye and Spike is one of 18 projects on display in the Museum of the Riverina’s historic council chambers site until August 3.
“I was talking with my little cousin about socks and we came up with the story,” said Tahnanya, the 17-year-old daughter of Racquel and David Fenwick.
Jye and Spike tells the story of a little boy who befriends a dinosaur who takes socks from the washing machine and puts them on his spikes.
Tahnaya is currently studying graphic design at TAFE NSW Riverina Institute’s Wagga campus.
She wrote and illustrated the book using hand drawings.
“I like drawing and I have loved kids books from when I was little,” Tahnanya said.
Wagga mayor Rod Kendall on Thursdayofficially opened the exhibition, which has been brought to the city by Board of Studies Teaching and Educational Standards NSW (BOTES).

Poet, Performer, Educator...
What others say about ray
First, Ray, on Ray......
"I've heeded the calling of inner voice married to outer world. I'm
blessed to be following a bliss that has carried me through college, six
books of monologues and poems and co-editing one anthology of Buddhist
poems, two solo stage shows, two historical character creations,
numerous theatrical collaborations, several bands, and years of writing
and performance workshops for students from kindergarten to college. A
writer is here to listen as much as to speak, to learn as much as to
teach, to give what has been given via the word."
What others say...
no mistake, Ray McNiece is a patriot in the truest sense of the word. He
has America coursing through his veins, and his poems are an open
highway with a cool Midwestern wind blowing through them.
'Our Way of Life' is a cathartic journey, taking you from
meditations on the atrocious war in Iraq to homages to the nation's
great living poets, and ending in the nooks and crannies of a country
that, despite the heartache found permeating everything, is still alive,
vital and staggeringly beautiful in ways that are breathtaking to
“Where would we be
without the voice of Ray McNiece? Who else would sing of the migrations
from Appalachia to Ohio, dance the Slovenian Polka, wail the blues for
broken New Orleans, mourn the destruction of our last pristine land,
rail against the corruption of corporate government, ache for the
victims of torture and war, then croon love songs to Cleveland? Who else
would connect us with what makes us human? Ray McNiece is our Whitman,
our bard, our bodhisattva, our conscience.”
"It's not enough for an artist to be
angry. He also has to be good. And Ray McNiece is good and angry in
these poems (Our Way of Life) that burn as hot and bright
as the extinct blast furnaces of Ohio once did. Whitman, whose ghost is
everywhere in these lines, called America "the greatest poem." And I am
happy that Ray McNiece's passionate, relentless voice will not stop
until he has made us understand how much we have lost."
It is a
poet’s job to tell the truth. McNiece strips away the multiple coats of
yellowing varnish in Our Way of Life laying bare a
distressed yet solidly built realism. Rather than the usual pop cynicism
- these poems embrace an idealism of what should and could be while
invoking the language of a poet’s poet. Like a canary in a coal mine he
beckons us to come above ground and breathe deep – before it is too
"Ray McNiece is an adept
reader of his own moving, clearly imaged poems, a skilled performer who
does the English language justice. "
The Edinburgh Scotsman reported, "McNiece's characters are acutely observed, the speech patterns and mannerisms perfectly caught. In a review in dialogue, arts in the Midwest, John Stickney wrote, "McNiece lends these victims a face with a voice and words, not full of pity but with individual dignity."
"McNiece smoothly blends
fine writing with an angry political conscience. His folksy but honed
poems are drawn from the heart of the working class."
"A warm, wise, gracious
guide through an infirm world, he teaches his leader how to love."

with the legendary Russian poet
