10 Tips to help your child read
Read with them- I personally do not do this as often as I should, and my children still enjoy reading. The ideal is to do it daily and my reality is that it doesn’t happen. I was one to think that it always had to be a bed time read and I have come to realise that it can be done at any time. Kids are just happy to be read to regardless of the time. So, whenever you have the energy, time and opportunity, please read with your child.
Get books suitable for their age and stage of development- I know this sounds obvious but getting an age or cognitive stage appropriate book is important. If you get a book with little picture and lots of words for a 2-year-old child, they most likely will get bored. This reduces or limits their ability to use their imagination, ability to predict the story or explore that book independently or with an adult. The wrong book can be under stimulating or over stimulating, especially when it is too easy or difficult for them. For example, although my son loves reading, he sometimes gets lazy. When he chooses books at the library, he will sometimes sneak in what I call ‘baby book’. My son is six years old (nearly seven) and he is an advanced reader, but he still wants a quick read sometimes. There is nothing wrong with that, but it is vital to get an appropriate book for your child, so I also choose some books for him as well.
Let them choose the books- There is something fun about choosing your own book. It makes the child feel like listening to the story being read, is like taking responsibility for your actions/ choices in a good way. Before we started home educating the children, we had a few books of our own and they also got books from school. However, they outgrew some of those books, and they refuse to give up the others. A forth nightly visit to the library is part of our home-school routine. Cultivate the love of reading in your child, why don’t you make going to the library (weekly, fortnightly or monthly) part of your routine? Always buy them books as part of their birthday and Christmas present. You can also get access to lots of free books online at oxfordowl.
Get interesting books– We read at the library and take time choosing our books. They choose the books they want to read, then I choose books that relates to the topic that we are doing. Sometimes we get books of something that is of interest to them. For example, my son likes street dance he got a book about that and learnt a couple of moves. He doesn’t go to dance classes but thought himself by watching others do it and using a book! My daughter also got 3 books about ballet, at the time, she took classes and learnt new moves. She took that book to her cousin’s house and they all learnt a ballet move. Sometimes, my daughter throws random facts at me, and when I ask how/where she heard that, she says, it was from a book. I always confirm these facts with google to make sure, and they are mostly correct!
Let them see you read- You must lead by example, gone are the days of ‘do as I say and not as I do’. They need to see you reading. When they see this, it makes them feel all grown up reading and they see reading as an important part of daily life. When mum or dad or both do it, then it’s usually cool. Kids emulate, this is the best way to learn; by copying. Personally, I don’t read as much as I want to and when I do, it is on my iPad. They know that I am reading and not watching YouTube, just saying (trying to keep a straight face).
Don’t use reading as a form of punishment- Unfortunately, sometimes reading can be used as a form of punishment. This is where kids are sent to read after they have misbehaved and have been disciplined, this saddens me. We want our kids to develop a love for reading not hate. When you associate negative feelings to something, you most likely will not want to do it, or if you have to you will not enjoy doing it. Reading should be something children look forward to doing or at least enjoy doing it. For example, my twin 6-year-olds both enjoy reading, my daughter looks forward to reading and reads when she can, my son needs to be encouraged to read and when he starts, he enjoys it and sometimes carries on without being prompted. I often will find books on their bed, they read at bedtime instead of sleeping! They could have easily played with their toys (or fight) instead of reading books. So, reading should not be a form of punishment.
Do or join a reading challenge- You can start a reading challenge in your household or join an existing reading challenge. For example, we always join the library’s reading challenge during the summer holiday. You are to read 6 books in six weeks or something like that. At the end of the challenge, you get a certificate from the librarian and other goodies. The kids enjoy doing it, so why not?
Do fun book reviews- You can do a fun book review, get the children to draw their favourite part of the book or write about it. They can talk about it as a show ‘n’ tell activity or video or voice record their book review. They love the sound of their own voice, it encourages them to read and make improvements. Also, when it’s a video, you can share it with their grandparents, dad or mum and they get lots of positive feedbacks. This encourages them to read more. We have friends whose kids started a YouTube channel and they do book reviews on there. Check them out https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCH2JB7Y4vc4dRyEr_Os562w. My kids love watching them, it reinforces that reading is fun!
Role play easy and fun stories- I remember reading ‘we are going on a bear hunt’ so many times I knew it by heart! One time, we went for a walk in the woods and I started role playing and reciting out loud we are going on a bear hunt, we are…’ the children’s imagination went wild, they found the mud, the river, the cave and we all had a blast. You can role play anywhere, in your living room, your local park and in their bedroom. I must admit, we don’t do this very often, but it was heaps of fun.
Surround them with books- I do not mean to surround them with books to overwhelm them but to stimulate them. Let them always have access to books and if need be, create an environment that encourages reading and you can also have reading or quiet time as part of your daily routine if that works for you. Why not put books in the car, buggy, there are books you can read in the bath!

The wines of France’s Bordeaux region have long been a benchmark for quality due to a combination of tradition, terroir and mystique. William Echikson’s “Noble Rot: A Bordeaux Wine Revolution” attempts to lift the veil and show the inside of the Bordeaux wine trade which makes for some fascinating reading.
Mr. Echikson is the Brussels bureau chief for Dow Jones Newswires and a wine columnist for the Wall Street Journal Europe but his narrative here stays closer to the business side of things in his account of the 2001 growing season. Along the way, we are introduced to the movers and shakers of the Bordeaux wine scene, including critic Robert Parker, consulting winemaker Michel Rolland and garagiste Michel Gracia, but the central story is of the Lur-Saluces family of Chateau d’Yquem.
The wines of Chateau d’Yquem are well known to wine lovers as the standard-bearer of Sauternes, the late harvest desert wine made in Bordeaux. The fungus on the grapes, known as “noble rot”, concentrates the juice making the resulting wine lusciously concentrated and sweet but still has plenty of acidity to make you come back for more. My own experience with d’Yquem is nothing short of phenomenal; this is one of those wines you want to just keep your nose in the glass for hours at a time.
As it turns out the Lur-Saluces family is as complex as their wines and much of Noble Rot is devoted to telling their somewhat tragic story. While interesting, I found this part of the book a bit gossipy and liked the vignettes of other characters in Bordeaux better. But at just under 300 pages, Noble Rot makes for a quick weekend read and one I hope more wine lovers will check out.
That’s why I chose this book for the second installment of the Wine Book Club created by Dr. Debs of Good Wine Under $20. In Deb’s review of this book, she focuses on the Bordelaise wine culture and the historical aspects of the story, not surprising for an esteemed history professor from USC.
Richard, The Passionate Foodie, commented on how winemakers need to adapt to change or face the consequences in his review. Good insight into the tradition-laden culture of Bordeaux.
The Dude checked in with his thoughts on Noble Rot and gave it a thumbs up for, “…a) You love you some Bordeaux wine, b) You prefer your history shaken, & with a twist of gossip, c) You are in the wine industry.” Well played, Dude.
Farley came out from Behind The Vines to post her review and highlight the educational aspects of Noble Rot. I, too, learned a lot about what makes Bordeaux tick and why they are able to command such prices in the international marketplace.
Kori from The Wine Peeps gave a rundown of several juicy quotes from the book in her review but concluded that, “…If you are interested in learning more about Bordeaux, the people, places, and history, this could be a book for you, and you can head over to Amazon or your book retailer of choice to pick up a copy. However, if you are looking for a wine guide or basic wine information, I would suggest that you look elsewhere.”
Colin from the Grapefan’s Wine Adventures blog in the UK posted a mixed review of Noble Rot commenting, “…I’m still not sure what to make of it.” He thought the book might be best suited to Americans but ended up giving the work an 84 on the 100 point scale.
I know other bloggers started the book and hope they finish and post their reviews. As they do, I will update this post. Please send me your link if I missed your review or if you post a bit later than my tardy effort.
Thanks again to Dr. Debs for letting me host Wine Book Club on it’s sophomore edition. I’m hoping to see a better turnout on the 3rd outing to be announced next week.

1887 – 1964
Known as the Dean of "Cleveland School" painters.
Frank Wilcox was born and raised in Cleveland and graduated from the Cleveland School of Art in 1910. Immediately after graduation he left for Paris and studied at the Academie Callorossi. During this period he came under the powerful influence of French impressionism. In 1913 he joined the staff of the Cleveland School of Art, where he taught design, drawing, painting and printmaking for 44 years. He was also on the faculty of John Huntington Polytechnic from 1918 through 1953.
Wilcox belonged to local and national watercolor societies, and exhibited regularly at the Cleveland Museum of Art's annual May Show where he took numerous prizes for painting and printmaking. He worked summers with Henry Keller in the country around Berlin Heights, teaching students the "plein air" approach to painting. He believed that all art is an emotional experience, and that the forms in nature must be interpreted rather than copied. With his quick approach to rendering, Wilcox thrived in the medium of watercolor painting. He mentioned, "I have usually practiced transparent watercolor since it seems to afford the readiest interpretation of the fleeting effects of light during the day and season. However, when employing opaque mediums, I have always tried to combine the handling of it with the transparent so that architecture and figures are tied in with a freely treated landscape."
Throughout his life, Wilcox traveled whenever he could, to Europe in 1910, 1914 and 1926, to the Gaspe peninsula in Canada, and across the United States. Ohio consistently captured his imagination and provided inspiration for his first book Ohio Indian Trails, which was on the New York Times bestseller list beginning in 1933. Wilcox also published a limited edition book called Weather Wisdom, which was filled with early recollections and monoprints on the subject of the shifting weather patterns with the changing seasons. Ohio Canals, a book documenting the extensive canal system of Ohio with paintings and illustrations, was published posthumously.
During the last phase of his life from the mid-fifties through the mid-sixties, Wilcox created numerous impressionistic watercolors recalling early childhood memories of the Ohio countryside and the young and prosperous industrial Cleveland. Norman Kent, editor of American Artist magazine, aptly named these the "Little-Big" watercolors for their small size and large stature.


The Travel History of Black America
February 15, 2022 12:58 pm By Necoh Mitchell
February is Black History Month, and Independent Travel Advisor Necoh Mitchell, with LaVon Travel & Lifestyle, is helping us share some of the travel history of Black America. It’s important that black history isn’t separate from American history, and sharing our stories is the best way for it to be learned.
How about we start in the 1930s. People would spend their summers traveling by car to visit their families or maybe taking a trip to the beach. Black people didn’t have the freedom to travel just anywhere because Jim Crow laws and segregation prevented this. Angry people who didn’t want to see black travelers confirmed it. So, in 1936 Victor Hugo Green wrote “The Negro Motorist Green Book,” or simply, “The Green Book.” It was a travel guide for black people. Mr. Green published lodging, restaurants, and gas stations that did business with black people. This book kept them informed and safe from 1936 – 1966.
Moving to 1938, Willa Brown Chappell was the first American woman to get her private pilot’s license on June 22, 1938. Mrs. Chappell wasn’t finished with the travel industry, and in 1940 she co-founded the National Airmen’s Association of America, which was also the first black Aviator group. She and her husband also opened the first flight school owned by black people. She also became the first American woman to have both a mechanics (1935) and commercial aviation (1939) license. Talk about a phenomenal woman!
Going into the 1940s, there were enough black pilots who wanted to fly, but they weren’t permitted to use the airports. The answer? The Columbia Air Center. This was an airfield in Croom, Maryland, that was set up by black pilots in 1941. It had an all-black staff and trainers who served in World War II as Tuskegee Airmen. Columbia Air Center was open between 1941-1958. These pilots loved the skies and created a way to stay in them. They are truly an inspiration.
By the 1950s, the “Golden Age of Travel,” black people wanted to travel more domestically and internationally. So Freddye Henderson and her husband Jacob opened Henderson Travel Service in Atlanta, Georgia, to help them do just that. The travel agency booked thousands of trips for black travelers, including Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.’s, 1964 visit to Oslo, Norway, where he accepted the Nobel Peace Prize. The Henderson’s saw the potential of specializing in travel to Africa, so they provided services to go there, including chartering planes to West Africa where there were no commercial flights. They started to focus on trip planning and tours to Africa. They worked closely with almost all of the major African American professional associations, including the National Bar Association, National Medical Association, historically black colleges and universities, and more. Henderson Travel Service used their ingenuity and endurance to create a Travel Agency that black people could trust in to get to the far-flung corners of the earth. Their legacy has paved the way for so many to not only travel, but to work in the travel industry.
It wasn’t until 1956 that you saw a black person become a pilot for an airline. Perry H. Young, Jr., became the first on December 17, 1956, when he was hired by New York Airways. It was in 1965, nine years later, that Captain Marlon Dewitt Green became the first black man to be a pilot for a major U.S. airline, Continental Airlines. It took a lengthy court battle that went to the Supreme Court for him to achieve the right to fly with Continental Airlines. He flew with them from 1965 – 1978. When he died in 2010, Continental Airlines named a Boeing 737 after him. In 1978, Jill Elaine Brown became the first black woman to be hired as a pilot for a major airline, Texas International Airlines.
These tenacious ones paved the way for many little black boys and black girls who dream about traveling the world and working in the travel industry. We see the fruits of their labors. Black people spend over 95 billion dollars on travel. Myself, my family, and my friends contribute to that 95 billion.
We’re so grateful for Mr. Green, Ms. Chappell, the Hendersons, Mr. Young, Mr. Dewitt Green, Ms. Brown, and the Tuskegee Airmen for their contributions to travel. But is all great now? The short answer is no.
While we have organizations like The Organization of Black Aerospace Professionals and The National Association of Black Hotel Owners, Operators & Developers (NABHOOD), and Blacks In Tourism, we need more allies. These organizations are key, but ALL travel organizations should be inclusive of black people. Traveling in general should be a freeing experience for everyone. Unfortunately, that is not the case.
Black people do not always feel safe while traveling.
Black people are targeted while traveling.
Black people can be scared while traveling.
Awareness of racism is heightened, but the fact of the matter is – racism still exists. In order for black travel to just be travel, we need others to remember that we are people, not threats. While Black History Month is a great thing to promote awareness, we ask for participation in kindness year-round. Since 1976 we’ve recognized Black History Month in the United States. In those 46 years, it has highlighted some of the great achievements by the innovative and creative minds of Black Americans. Let’s continue to celebrate the incredible past and our inspired future.
I’m grateful to be a part of the community that is Tafari Travel where black people matter. They encourage diversity and look for ways to promote awareness. -- Necoh Mitchell

You have to use three or even more technical resources (which may be understood in the Ashford on-line Library) besides the textbook to back up your claims and subclaims. Ask yourself should you have at any time seen the source cited in various sources of bibliographies. Evaluating secondary and primary resources is an essential step which should be taken before you start to compose your research documents. Annotated reference writing for your bibliography takes a big quantity of advice if your annotations have to be composed well. The reference of research paper together with the author is the conventional APA style of citation.
What Everybody Dislikes About Apa Research Paper Template and Why
The title should eternally in italics, and ought to end with a period. When you mention the site name, set the date of publishing of that title. It is possible to also compose the name of the site within another line, exactly under the name of the author. The name of the website has to be mentioned right after the article in italics having a time after that.


This is another book by Diana Wynne Jones, my favourite author. It’s a pocket book, rebound into hardcover using a method I hope I’ll never ever have to use again.
I cut off the spine, so that I had just a bunch of loose papers, then I pasted them together with strips of thin paper, two by two in the right order, to make signatures that I could stitch as usual. The original cover is attached to the first and last signature.
Once that boring part was over, I started on the cover. I’m… not good at plain covers. For this one, I decided to go with the fact that there was a map in the beginning of the book. I drew the map on a smaller piece of paper, folded it using the Turkish Map Fold that I’d learned just the week before, and embedded it in the front cover. Just for the fun of it, and because I don’t know how to stop once I’ve started, I embroidered a compass star thingy on the map cover, and the F in the beginning of the title.


To celebrate this years World Book day, my children’s school set out a letter for parents, asking us to send in photographs of our children reading books in fun places, called Extreme Reading.
My first thoughts of throwing my kids out of a small airplane with parachutes and their favourite books, all in the spirit of the challenge; were quickly put to a stop by my wife, (apparently they’re not old enough) so it was back to the photography drawing board.
So after a little bit of planning with my son and daughter, we came up with these fun images.
I hope you enjoy them as much as we did creating them!
Happy World Book day 2016!


Lee Harwood's "Collected Poems"
Review by Alan Baker
At last, all of Lee Harwood's work, covering a forty year period, is available in one place. Much of his poetry has been out-of-print for years despite him being, to my mind, a central figure in the British scene. So this book is, as the publisher claims, a major event.
When we look at Harwood’s poetry - modernist, cosmopolitan, surrealist, influenced by Dada, Borges, the New York School - it’s hard to believe that Britain in the early 1960s, when Harwood started his career, was still a deeply conservative and insular place. Tom Raworth has written about the isolation of poets like himself in this period, when American books were hard to come by, and the predominant mode of poetic discourse was the conservative one of The Movement poets. Harwood’s early achievement needs to be seen in this context. In the early 60s, he associated with Ashbery in Paris, and began his translations of Tristan Tzara, and later in that decade he spent time in the US, establishing some key contacts there.
The early work is original, fresh, and unlike that of any other English writer of that period; it is erotic, sensual, and right from the start had that mixture of delicate understatement and disconcerting directness. There is often a child-like quality to these poems, which somehow manages to speak to the complexity of lived experience. The early books have a slightly pop-art feel (but again, very subtle) and are peopled with admirals, nobles, tribesmen; a gentle mockery of the fading British Empire, echoed in the Sergeant Pepper period of 1960s pop culture. Narrative is important, and he gives us stories tantalizingly unfinished, suggestive of other dimensions and perceptions. In mid-career he published a collection of prose stories, 'The Dream Quilt', included in this volume.
“The Long Black Veil: a notebook 1970-72”, a diary of a love-affair, marks the end of the first phase of his writing. This sequence shows considerable narrative skill, and an ability to evoke a scene, in a few lines, which works as an emotional setting. It is Poundian, and interweaves a personal journal with quotes from various esoteric sources, including Egyptian mythology. But the idiom couldn’t be further from Poundian bluster: tentative, understated, with a lightness of touch and plainness of speech.
John Ashbery has pointed out that Harwood’s poetry is “more like recent American poetry than English poetry”. In the collection “Landscapes” (1969), we have:
The white cloud passes a shadow across
the landscape and so there is a passing greyness
The grey and white both envelope
the watcher until he too is drawn into the picture
(from "The Final Painting")
This is as transparent as poetic language can be (a virtue usually associated with prose), and in Ashbery’s words “is self effacing not from modesty but because it is going somewhere and has no time to consider itself”. In this whole poem, the subtlety with which the scene is presented in relation to the reader/observer, and the self-consciousness with which the poem is aware of its own artifice, combines a complexity of thought and perception with an unusual simplicity of language.
It’s hard to explain exactly how his language works, how a style so apparently diffuse and disjointed can leave us with an effect of crystalline clarity. I think this has something to do with the honesty with which he re-creates a state of mind, or a reaction to the world, and the way the self-consciousness of his poetic artifacts paradoxically creates a sense of authentic experience:
Is someone weeping in the street outside?
It sounds like a man. It is 3:30 am.
But when I go to the window, I can see no-one.
I might have asked him in to cry in the warm,
if he’d wanted. This isn’t as stupid as it seems.
But everything on this (surface) level is so disjointed
that it can make even this possible act of kindness
appear to THEM as ‘foolishness’ (if ‘they’ feel patronizing)
or ‘absurdity’ (if ‘they’ feel insecure that day)
(from "Love in the Organ Loft")
In the 60s and early 70s, Harwood was often bracketed with Tom Raworth, and on the page, their early work can look similar. But, as, Richard Caddel pointed out, their reading styles belie this, and while one of Raworth’s virtues is speed, Harwood’s work has a more relaxed feel, and his prose-like measures give the reader time to absorb what they’re reading. There is a gentler tone to his surrealist imagery, where a child-like naivety often predominates:
The steamboat approached the quay ‘a room full of trees’?
about the lesson there was a letter aboard for me
Telegramme to stop the process, m’lud
But nothing was learnt from all the mistakes
The steamboat – toot, toot – approached the quay
White smoke puffing from the funnel
What a bright picture all this is!
(from "The Backwoods")
In his 1987 essay on Dada, Harwood identifies that movement as a direct reaction to World War One, a response to a specific social and political situation. That impetus, which Harwood claims was lost to later conceptual art, is what gave early Dadaist art and poetry its vitality. Harwood's own poetry had that impetus right from the start. The first piece in this volume, published by Bob Cobbing's Writer's Forum in 1965, is 'Cable Street'. The title refers to the famous battle with Mosley's fascists in London's East End. The poem, which is still remarkably fresh, is a meditation on living in Cable Street in the 1960s interweaved with descriptions of the events of thirty years earlier. And in a late collection, 'Morning Light' (1998), we have a long poem about the Armenian genocide of the early twentieth century, handled with typical tact and discretion, using the statistics of the killings to speak for themselves. Throughout his career, Harwood’s work has had an awareness, arguably an increasing one, of its social context, and this is one of the things which gives it its vitality.
Later work becomes more clearly British; his adoptive town of Brighton and its surrounding country is increasingly the subject and setting his poetry, and we have vignettes of everyday life like ‘The Domino Players’ from the collection ‘Dream Quilt’, a quasi-documentary account of some of the poet’s ancestors, workers in the leather industry in the English Midlands, that amusingly captures the stolidity of those people:
…despite his success he was regarded by the rest of his family as a disgrace. His ‘crime’ had been making boots with cardboard soles for the Republican Government during the Spanish Civil War. The disgrace was probably more to do with ideas of honesty and good craftsmanship than with anything political.
(from "The Domino Champion")
Some would argue that in later years, Harwood lost his sense of newness and originality. Certainly the language becomes more everyday, less given to surrealist disjunction. And his work did seem to lose its edge for a time in the late 80s/early 90s. But ‘Morning Light’ (1998) was a return to form, and that collection, along with the most recent, ‘Evening Star’ (2004), could clearly be written by no one else; they are recognizably Harwood. And while there’s perhaps a lessening of tension, there is a broadening of scope; an acknowledgement of social relations, family ties, and the shared experience of growing older. In fact, if we look at the final section of this volume, containing his most recent, unpublished work, we see a return to a more adventurous use of form. The piece is titled ‘Take a Card, Any Card: An Ikonostasis‘, and subtitled ‘52 pieces to be shuffled as you will’. This seems like a return to vintage Harwood, but the wide-eyed naivety of the early work is replaced by reflections on the past, and an individual’s place in a community that includes those who have passed on. There is the characteristic tone of wonderment and delight at being in the world, combined with what almost, but not quite, amounts to nostalgia. As one of the poems in this section puts it:
It is like Cornell’s Boxes. Not a nostalgia that somehow sees the past as better but that captures the sadness, the undeniable fact, of time passing, life passing.
The comparison with Cornell, the gentle surrealist, and his boxes of found objects, with their childlike wonder and sense of mystery, is an apt one for Harwood’s poetry as a whole.
By the time he was thirty, Lee Harwood had published six collections, including three with the legendary Fulcrum Press (beautiful books, now collector's items), and in 1971 was included in Penguin Modern Poets series, in a volume with John Ashbery and Tom Raworth. A change in fashion/critical opinion/power structures (take your pick) took place in the early seventies, and he has been published by small presses ever since (which goes to show that it's these outfits that have kept poetry alive, at least in these islands). For a short period in the 1980s, Paladin produced a series of editions of what had been non-mainstream poetry, including a Lee Harwood 'Selected'. Since that volume went out of print, it's been hard to get hold of much of Harwood's work. Now, it’s available again; something we should be grateful for.

New book about the team of Mike D’Antoni’s life
Got this in a newsletter from a bookshop where I bought Ettore Messina’s book a few years back:
Head coach of the New York Knicks Mike D’Antoni has appeared in a book that was recently published in Italy.
“And so… Towards a New Adventure!” by the coach Franco Casalini with an afterword by Mike D’Antoni is about Olimpia Milano basketball team. It’s subtitled as: “1978-1990: the team of our lives”, and those are exactly the 12 seasons that D’Antoni spent playing for Milano as one of the top point guards in Europe.
Here’s the description of the book (Google-translated):
“History and especially stories of the golden age of Italian basketball, from the late seventies to all of the eighties. Period that coincides with the construction, the rise and triumph of an extraordinary team: Olimpia Milano in its various names (Billy, Simac, Tracer, Philips).
Mike D’Antoni, Dino Meneghin, Bob McAdoo, John Gianelli, Riccardo Pittis, Antoine Carr, Roberto Premier, CJ Kupec, Dino and Franco Boselli, Vittorio Gallinari, Mike Sylvester, Ken Barlow, Victor Ferracini, Renzo Bariviera, Russ Schoene and others appear to be protagonists in these pages, written in the style and ironic self-mocking Milan coach.
Avoiding the rhetoric of self-affirmation and minimizing the effect of nostalgia, the book is aimed at those who in those days was the younger audience and know Casalini mainly as a TV reporter”
Coach Casalini’s website says the book hits the stands on Dec 1, 2011 and will soon be available as an eBook.

Buying books has always been an enjoyable activity for book lovers. However, choosing between buying a hard copy or a PDF version of a book has become a common dilemma these days. While hard copies have been the traditional way of reading, PDF books have taken a significant place in the digital era. In this article, we explore why you should buy PDF books instead of hard copies.
Firstly, PDF books are much more cost-effective than hard copies. It is no secret that hard copies of books can be expensive, and the cost of buying books can add up. On the other hand, PDF books are usually much cheaper than their hard copy counterparts, if not free. This affordability makes it possible for people to access books regardless of their financial situation.
Another advantage of PDF books is convenience. Carrying around a hard copy of a book can be quite cumbersome, especially if you are reading more than one book at a time. PDF books, on the other hand, can be accessed on any device, including smartphones, tablets, and laptops. This means that you can carry an entire library in the palm of your hand without feeling weighed down.
PDF books also have environmental benefits. With global warming being a significant issue, it is crucial that we take steps to reduce our carbon footprint. The production and transportation of hard copies of books leave a significant carbon footprint. In contrast, PDF books have little or no impact on the environment because no paper or physical resources are required.
In conclusion, the benefits of PDF books make them a superior option over hard copies. They are more affordable, convenient, and environmentally friendly. While traditionalists prefer the feel and smell of a hard copy, the practicality of PDF books cannot be denied. So, if you are in doubt about choosing between a hard copy or a PDF version of a book, you might want to consider all the advantages that PDF books have to offer.
EcoFriendly Consumerism: The Case for Choosing PDF Books over Hard Copies
As technology has evolved, so too has the way we consume information. One such evolution lies in the increased availability and popularity of electronic books, or PDF books, as an alternative to traditional hard copies. While some may argue that the tactile experience of reading a physical book cannot be replicated by a digital version, there are numerous environmental benefits to choosing PDF books over hard copies.
For starters, the production and transportation of hard copy books requires a significant amount of natural resources and energy. Paper production contributes to deforestation and water pollution, while shipping books across the country or even the globe requires fossil fuels and generates greenhouse gas emissions. In contrast, the production and distribution of PDF books requires much less energy and natural resources, leading to a much smaller carbon footprint.
Furthermore, many PDF books can be accessed for free or at a lower cost than their hard copy counterparts. This not only saves the consumer money, but also decreases the demand for new paper products. By choosing PDF books, consumers are effectively reducing their contribution to the wasteful and environmentally damaging cycle of paper production, use, and disposal.
In addition, PDF books offer a level of convenience and accessibility that cannot be matched by physical books. With the rise of e-readers and mobile devices, PDF books can be accessed and read from virtually anywhere, at any time. This versatility means that people may be more likely to read and learn from PDF books, ultimately increasing the spread of knowledge and ideas.
In conclusion, choosing PDF books over hard copies is not only more environmentally friendly, but also more economical and convenient. By making environmentally conscious choices in our daily consumption of goods, we can collectively lessen our impact on the planet and ensure a sustainable future.
CostEffective Reading: How Buying PDF Books Saves You Money in the Long Run
In today's digital age, it's no secret that technology has changed the way that we read, learn, and absorb information. One of the most significant ways this transformation has taken place is through the rise of eBooks and PDF books, which have become increasingly popular for their convenience, accessibility, and cost-effectiveness.
When it comes to reading, there are numerous benefits to purchasing PDF books. First and foremost, they are often significantly cheaper than traditional print books, making them an attractive option for those on a budget. Additionally, PDF books don't require any shipping or handling costs, which can quickly add up over time. With the click of a button, you can download an entire library of PDF books without ever leaving your home, saving time and expenses.
Another significant advantage of purchasing PDF books is the ability to have them readily available to you on any device. Whether you prefer to read on your computer, tablet, or phone, all you need is to download your PDF book once and store it on your device. This convenience makes it easier to read whenever and wherever you choose. Moreover, digital books don't take up physical space, so you can keep an extensive library of titles on your device without cluttering your home.
Finally, reading PDF books is an excellent way to reduce paper waste, which is good for the environment. Traditional print books use up valuable natural resources such as paper and ink, and they require energy and resources to produce and distribute. By choosing digital books, you're doing your part to reduce the carbon footprint and contribute to a more sustainable future.
In conclusion, buying PDF books saves you money in the long run by providing cost-effective, convenient, and eco-friendly solutions. Not only are they cheaper, but they also offer the flexibility to read on any device and reduce your environmental impact. Overall, embracing digital reading is a smart decision that benefits both your wallet and the planet.
Accessibility Matters: The Advantages of PDF Books for People with Disabilities
Accessibility Matters: The Advantages of PDF Books for People with Disabilities
In today's digital age, books are no longer confined to print form. With the rise of e-books and digital publishing, books are now available in a variety of formats, including PDFs. While PDFs are often used for their convenience and high-quality display, they also offer a number of benefits for people with disabilities.
One of the main advantages of PDF books is their accessibility. For people with visual impairments, PDFs offer numerous features that enable them to read and navigate the content more easily. For example, PDFs can be read aloud by screen readers, which convert text into speech. This allows people with visual impairments to hear the words rather than having to read them visually. Additionally, PDFs can be enlarged to make the text easier to read for people with low vision.
PDFs also offer benefits for people with mobility impairments. Many PDFs can be accessed using assistive technology, such as voice recognition software and keyboard shortcuts. This allows people with limited mobility to navigate the content without having to use a mouse or touchpad.
Another advantage of PDF books is their ability to retain formatting and layout. This is especially important for people with cognitive impairments, who may have difficulty reading and interpreting text that is not presented in a clear and consistent manner. PDFs ensure that the text is displayed in a way that is easy to read and understand, with consistent formatting throughout the book.
Finally, PDFs are easy to share and distribute, making them a convenient option for people with disabilities who may need to share the content with others. They can be emailed, shared on social media, or uploaded to cloud services for easy access.
In conclusion, PDF books offer a range of benefits for people with disabilities, making them an important tool for accessibility. They provide features that enable people to read and navigate the content more easily, retain formatting and layout, and are easy to share and distribute. As more books are made available in PDF format, it is important to continue to promote and advocate for accessibility to ensure that everyone has equal access to information and knowledge.
Simplifying Storage: Declutter Your Life by Switching to PDF Books
In today's digital age, decluttering your space has become crucial. One area where decluttering can have a significant impact is in your book collection. If you're an avid reader, you might have shelves stacked with books that take up precious space and make it difficult to find what you're looking for. Switching to PDF books can make decluttering easier and provide a more streamlined storage solution.
PDF books are digital versions of physical books that can be accessed on a variety of devices, including computers, tablets, and smartphones. By switching over to PDF books, you can eliminate the need for physical storage space and easily access all of your books in one place. You can store thousands of books on a single device, making it an ideal solution for those who want to save space without sacrificing their love of reading.
One of the benefits of PDF books is that they are easy to organize. You can categorize your books by genre, author, or any other criteria that fits with your personal preference. You can search through your entire collection to find a specific book, and you can even add notes or annotations to your digital books to make them more personalized.
Another advantage of using PDF books is their portability. Whether you're traveling or commuting, having a digital book in your pocket means you'll never be without something to read. PDF books are also a more eco-friendly option, as they eliminate the need for paper production and transportation.
Overall, switching to PDF books can simplify your storage solutions and declutter your life. It's an excellent option for anyone who is looking to downsize their physical book collection or wants to take their reading material with them on-the-go. With the ability to store thousands of books on a single device, PDF books make it easier than ever to have a well-curated digital library at your fingertips.
Instant Gratification: The Convenience of Downloading PDF Books Anytime Anywhere
In today's digital age, instant gratification has become an essential element of the consumer culture. One such convenience that the modern-day technology has gifted us is the ability to download PDF books anytime anywhere. It's not only a massive relief for avid readers but also an excellent way to save money and space. With the availability of countless books online, avid readers can enjoy reading their favorite genres without having to wait for the next bookstore visit or carrying bulky books along.
Downloading PDF books has several obvious advantages, convenience being the foremost. With just a few clicks, readers can download books anytime they want, even in the middle of the night. In addition to the ease of accessing a vast range of content, eBooks are significantly more affordable than traditional paper books. There are even many free PDF books available online, which saves both space on our bookshelves and money in our pockets.
Furthermore, downloading books in PDF format is beneficial in terms of accessibility. With the rise of e-readers and tablets, readers now have the option to read on their mobile devices, both online and offline. This means that readers can read books while commuting, waiting for a doctor's appointment, or traveling, making it a perfect option for busy people on-the-go.
Although downloading PDF books has various benefits, some may argue that it takes away the sense of ownership that comes with owning physical books. Also, some readers may feel overwhelmed by the vast number of books available, leading to indecisiveness and lack of focus. However, these minor cons do not outweigh the convenience, cost-effectiveness, and accessibility that come with downloading PDF books, making it a popular choice for avid readers worldwide.
In conclusion, instant gratification is a widespread phenomenon in today's culture, and the convenience of downloading PDF books anytime anywhere is no exception. With the numerous benefits that eBook reading provides, it's no surprise that eBook sales have overtaken traditional print book sales, and the trend is only expected to rise.

Lecture by Dr. Henry Yu and Sarah Ling:
Gold Mountain Dreaming and the History of the Cantonese Pacific
The lecture is co-organized by Chinese Canadian Historical Society of British Columbia and the Royal B.C. Museum, hosted by the Chinese Cultural Centre of Greater Vancouver.
Chinese migrants have been coming to the traditional First Nations territories that are now known as British Columbia since the very first moments that European migrants did. “Gold Rushes” in the mid-19th century drew migrants from around the world to deposits of gold on the edges of the Pacific basin: California, Australia, New Zealand, and the colony of British Columbia. Known for creating businesses like cafés, laundries and general stores that provided important services to miners and others, the Chinese were able to make money in ways far beyond finding gold. They grew food and helped build roads and bridges, as well as import goods from their trans-Pacific trade networks. In the Cantonese language that these migrants spoke, all of these locations came to be known as Gum San (Gold Mountain). Because of the wealth that could be created by crossing the seas to work, Gum San became a mythic name that long outlasted the gold rushes.

"Corinne Winters's slim, dark-hued soprano entices the listener in this wide-ranging collection of love songs from Spain. Curated by multi-linguist Steven Blier, the recital highlights languages and dialects from all over the Iberian peninsula, enlived by Blier's authoritative musicianship and stylish pianism.
The sensuality and fluid rhythmic movement of "Después que te conoci" (Ever since I met you) furnishes a strong start to the disc, which continues with another song by Eduardo Toldrà, the langorous "Maig" (May), on a deliciously atmospheric poem by Trinitat Catasús.
Winters seems right at home in the various language sounds, whether Andalusian, Castilian, Basque, or Catalan, and she and Blier seem to share an ear for vocal color. There's a spiky edge to Joaquin Nin's elaborately-accompanied "Paño murciano," with its cute text focused on a silversmith's kisses, and Winters's easy chest voice highlights the "Rau, rau, rau" refrain of the desperate unwed mother in the Basque poem "Aldapeko Mariya." Turina's "Si con mis deseos" (If with my desires) is beautifully sung, showing off compact and focused top notes, and it fades away wistfully.
Ladino song tradition, and the music of the expelled Sephardic Jews, was revived in the twentieth century. Although the artists were unable to rescue Hemsi's aimless arrangement of "Tres hijas tiene el buen rey," Morante's "Adio querida" is given a bitter, dark reading...
Among the strongest compositions are "Haidé," a short cycle in Catalan by the young Narcis Bonet (b. 1933), whose baroque austerity is nevertheless touching, and Montsalvatge's "Cançó amorosa," its langorous atmosphere perfectly captured by the artists. Winters softens the edges for the phrase "i seguir en les nits d'agost / les estrelles que es desmaten" (And to follow in the August nights / The stars that make us dizzy with pleasure), bringing a gentle sensuality to her sound that one would like to hear more of. The slinky duet "Todas las mañanitas" (Every morning) sends the listener off wanting more than the disc's scant forty-nine minutes. Perhaps a sequel?"
Judith Malafronte, Opera News
"One of America’s foremost protectors of the Art of Song, exemplified by his founding work with the New York Festival of Song, pianist Steven Blier is an artist for whom the interpretation of song is second nature, and in these performances of fifteen of Spain’s most alluring inspirations in the genre he discovers in young Maryland-born soprano Corinne Winters a companion for this journey who needs no atlases or musical road maps. Spanish Art Song and zarzuela—Spain’s emblematic género chico — are particularly susceptible to the stupid notion that they are among those art forms that should be left to ‘natives.’ Galina Vishnevskaya and Irina Arkhipova naturally had special relationships with the operatic and song repertories of their native Russia, just as Pilar Lorengar and Teresa Berganza were attuned by right of birth to Spanish repertory. Neither Lorengar and Berganza nor Alicia de Larrocha were more suited to expressive performance of Spanish music than Ms. Winters and Mr. Blier here prove themselves to be, however. Their partnership is one of complementary virtues. Mr. Blier’s playing is marked by the kind of insurmountable virtuosity that deals handily with the greatest difficulties without ever calling attention to itself, and Ms. Winters’s vocalism is consistently artful without ever seeming artificial. Their partnership is shaped by obvious affection for the music at hand and the simple joy of two musicians interacting in ways that surprise and delight. What makes their trek through the aromatic harmonies of Spain so transporting for the listener is the abandon with which they surrender themselves to the music. Try to listen to any of the songs on Canción amorosa without sensing in the mind the delicate fragrances of almonds and saffron hanging in the air.
Ms. Winters and Mr. Blier launch their exploration of the musical topography of Spain with Eduard Toldrà’s setting of Francesco de Quevedo’s poem ‘Después que te conocí.’ Examining the ways in which love alters one’s perceptions of life, the Castilian text draws from Ms. Winters singing of great refinement, the delicacy of her approach contrasting with the formidable security of her singing. Her vocal storytelling is no less poised but passionate in ‘Maig,’ Toldrà’s setting of an evocative Catalan poem by Trinitat Catasús in which reflections of human passion are observed in nature, including portentous tidings in the May moon that bring to mind the effusions of ‘Casta diva’ in Bellini’s Norma and ‘Měsíčku na nebi hlubokém’ in Dvořák’s Rusalka, both of which are arias with which, in time, Ms. Winters could do much. ‘Paño murciano,’ Havana-born Joaquín Nin’s arrangement of a ‘dance from Murcia,’ contemplates the price of setting a lover’s kiss in silver, and it is the glow of molten silver that flows in Ms. Winters’s voice, compellingly framed by the calm brilliance of Mr. Blier’s playing. All of the threads in these songs are woven together in a fascinating tapestry in Lope de Vega’s ‘Si con mis deseos,’ set to music by Joaquín Turina that subtly reveals the abiding power of love to conquer both man and nature.
One of the starkest songs on the disc is ‘Aldapeko, Mariya,’ Félix Lavilla’s setting of a traditional Basque poem that tells of the despair of a woman pregnant with the child of wealthy landowner. The hopelessness in Ms. Winters’s recounting of the unwed mother-to-be’s tacit contemplation of suicide is made more poignant by the uncompromised beauty of tone. The truest sense of bel canto is present throughout her singing of these songs, in fact: she brings to these melodic feasts a voice that is rich without ever seeming heavy, and the depth of her interpretations is derived from her attention to the nuances of text and the expressive interplay of her collaboration with Mr. Blier. Together, they convey the metaphor of love being like the union of wind and waves imparted by Xavier Montsalvatge’s ‘Cançó amorosa,’ a setting of a Catalan poem by Tomás Garcés that inhabits the same world as the texts of Elgar’s Sea Pictures. Federico García Lorca’s arrangement of the Eighteenth-Century folk song ‘La Tarara,’ a musical portrait of a legendary alma gitana, offers Ms. Winters the opportunity to create a character with almost operatic intensity, a feat which she accomplishes unforgettably to the accompaniment of guitarist Oren Fader. Mr. Fader’s playing also contributes stirringly to Ms. Winters’s performance of ‘Nik baditut,’ Graciano Tarragó’s arrangement of a Basque folk in which the singer vaingloriously catalogues earthly possessions, ostensibly in an effort to impress a potential lover. Mr. Fader joins Ms. Winters and Israeli mezzo-soprano Maya Lahyani in acutely sensitive performances of Mr. Blier’s arrangement of José Melchor Gomis’s ‘Si la mar fuera de tinta,’ its likening of love to a light in darkness projected with appropriate luminosity, and ‘Todas las mañanitas’ from Don Gil de Alcalá, a gorgeous piece by Manuel Penella Moreno, the composer of the celebrated zarzuela El gato montés.
A setting by Narcís Bonet of verses by Joan Maragall, ‘Haidé’ unifies the divergent emotional profiles of ‘Com una flor,’ ‘Ves qui t’ho havia de dir,’ and ‘Jo porto el teu pensament’ with vigor and originality, and Ms. Winters sings the piece with careful negotiation of its caprices of expressivity and vocal writing. Alberto Hemsi’s arrangement of the traditional Sephardic song ‘Tres hijas tiene el buen rey’ deals almost insouciantly with a father’s incestuous infatuation with his most beautiful daughter, touching in its perusal of the relationship between father and daughter the milieu of King Lear, but Ms. Winters downplays the uncomfortable implications of the text with her lustrous, practically playful singing. She enunciates the Ladino text with the same unaffected accuracies of stress and accent that she exhibits in the Basque, Castilian, and Catalan selections. The dual smallness and infiniteness of human love are celebrated in the folk poem ‘Cómo quieres que adivine,’ set to music of incredible beauty by Jesús Guridi, perhaps the greatest genius of Basque music in the Twentieth Century. Both to this and to ‘Paisatge del Montseny,’ Montsalvatge’s setting of Pere Ribot i Sunyer’s paean to the manifestations of love and man’s connection with the divine in the exquisite landscapes of the Montseny Massif, Ms. Winters lends vocalism of the highest order, the integration of her soft mahogany lower register with the comet-like bursts of tone in her upper register reliable and frankly surprising for so young a singer. The best of her artistry is poured out in the haunting ‘Adío querida,’ a timeless Sephardic melody arranged by Manuel García Morante, and here as in every song Mr. Blier’s playing is so intrinsically synchronized with Ms. Winters’s singing that she might well be thought to be accompanying herself.
Offering performances of fifteen songs that any nation should be proud to claim as representatives of its unique artistic identity, few discs succeed as completely and memorably at capturing in sound the essence of a culture as Canción amorosa manages to do, but few labels are as accomplished in the art of giving artists and composers recordings worthy of their endeavors as GPR Records. Steven Blier is a tireless and erudite champion of Art Song whose work in a fascinating and always-growing repertoire deserves to be recorded frequently and with the quality lavished on this disc by his co-producers, Glen Roven, Peter Fitzgerald, and Richard Cohen. Corinne Winters introduces herself on disc not with a template recital of the same tired material intoned by many young sopranos but with an incandescent disc that says, ‘¡Oye! Soy diferente!’ Solely for being different, Canción amorosa earns the distinction of being one of the most enjoyable recordings released in recent years. As a performance that temporarily subdues the cares of the world with sly smiles, sighs, and splashes of sangria, it truly inspires sentimientos amorosos."
Joseph Newsome, Voix des Arts
"Fifteen beautiful songs by such composers as Xavier Montsalvatge, Joaquin Nin and Joaquin Turina, what’s not to love? Corinne Winters has a lovely smooth soprano voice and she sings to the accompaniment of piano and, on occasion, guitar. The sound quality is wonderful, which gives the intimate music a special appeal. Highlights include a snappy 18th century popular song arranged by Federico Garcia Lorca, two mournful traditional Sephardic songs and a haunting Basque folk song."
Mary Kunz Goldman, The Buffalo News
"Soprano Corinne Winters has been garnering acclaim in opera houses and concert halls around the world. Her debut album, Canción amorosa: Songs of Spain (on GPR Records), is devoted to Spanish love songs. The Spanish word duende is defined as “the power to attract through personal magnetism and charm.” It could be used to describe the alluring performances on this CD. Winters is striking vocally and is also very attractive, pictured on the album cover in a sort of Louise Brooks hairstyle. Winters has found the ideal collaborator in pianist Steven Blier, artistic director and co-founder of the New York Festival of Song...This is a memorable debut recording for Winters and further demonstration of Blier’s knowledge and dedication to the art of song."
Bary Bassis, The Epoch Times
"Soprano Corinne Winters began her career as a Gerdine Young Artist at OTSL and has built it internationally with the company’s support. (She’s back in St. Louis for Puccini’s “La Rondine,” which closes the company’s season this weekend.)
Her latest venture is a beautiful recording, “Canción Amorosa: Songs of Spain”. Instead of the usual aria collection, it’s a selection of miniatures, in assorted characteristically Spanish styles, and a welcome addition to the CD shelf.
Winters’ dark-hued voice is perfect for this repertoire, and it shows a different side of her artistry. Pianist Stephen Blier is more than an accompanist; he’s a full-fledged collaborator. Lovely additions also come from mezzo-soprano Maya Lahyani (a perfect match for Winters’ sound) and guitarist Oren Fader. Highly recommended."

This theory explains that the origin of the state is to be an implicit agreement among the members of a society to cooperate for social benefits and to form a civil society. Thomas Hobbes, John Locke and Jean- Jacques Rousseau are the chief exponents of the Contract Theory. But their ideas and opinions were quite distinct. HOBBES’S VIEWS The social contract theory was the creation of Hobbes who created the idea of a social contract theory, which Locke and Rousseau built upon. Their ideas of the social contract were often influenced by the era in which they lived and social issues that were present during their lives.

Welcome to our site!
Perhaps you love to pore over catalogs of great Western art. Even as a girl I noticed few women represented in these books. I couldn't help wondering if there was good reason for this: perhaps women lacked the emotional and physical stamina to pursue art with the intensity, hence achievement of men. For years I wondered why society had not produced a lady Rembrandt or Picasso.
The answer, of course, is society has. My realization of this came by grace of the "new" art survey books of the 1980s. No doubt inspired by the women's movement, some devoted themselves exclusively to women artists. I am thinking specifically of Wendy Slatkin's Women Artists in History (Prentiss-Hall, 1985). Many of the works and painters in this study were entirely new to me. The paintings of one, particularly, struck me for their joy and restrained vigor--Elisabeth Vigee-Lebrun.
Vigee-Lebrun's works aren't new. They've been in the Louvre 200 years. Unfortunately, I had not. I knew art only as filtered through the eyes, interests and judgment of those critics and editors who compiled the art books of my youth. For some unfathomable reason, these scholars tended to leave women's works out of their catalogs of great Western paintings.
For me, this discovery was liberating! But was the same tendency true of other disciplines-- architecture, medicine, mathematics and physics? With a little digging, I found a whole new realm of information: the stories of accomplished women from throughout the ages. Still hard to find in the encyclopedias, these women used their talent and toughness to change their cultures. And their accomplishments ring down the generations to affect our lives today.
You'll find some of these women right here, at our site. We'll also direct you to other sites where you can find more forgotten figures. Even if you have a firm grounding in women's history, you may find some heroine you've never met before.
