Love Of Reading Quotes by John Locke, Andre Rieu, Jami Attenberg, Susan Sontag, Lena Dunham, Zoe Kazan and many others.
Reading furnishes the mind only with materials of knowledge; it is thinking that makes what we read ours.
I love reading but I never last very long because I fall asleep right away.
I love reading books that you can’t put down, and they just take you over for a night or a weekend.
Reading usually precedes writing. And the impulse to write is almost always fired by reading. Reading, the love of reading, is what makes you dream of becoming a writer.
When we, as young women, are given the space to read, the act becomes a happy, private corner we can return to for the rest of our lives. We develop this love of reading by turning to stories that speak to the most special, secret parts of us.
It’s fun for me to be with someone who loves reading as much as I do, because he’ll give me things to read that I wouldn’t normally seek out, and I think vice versa.
One of the first serious attempts I made to write a novel was when I was in Grade 6 and I had read ‘Matilda.’ I wrote my own version and my teacher had it bound and permitted me to read it to the class – cementing my love of reading, writing and Roald Dahl!
I hope that when children read my stories that they evoke images for children. I four stories can help children use their own imaginations and lead them to act the stories out or to embark on related research, they will learn more and learn to love reading more.
I have a great deal of sympathy for reluctant readers because I was one. I would do anything to avoid reading. In my case, it wasn’t until I was 13 and discovered the ‘Lord of the Rings’ that I learned to love reading.
The love of reading can be contagious.
If a child is going to grow into a truly special adultвЂ“someone who thinks, considers other points of view, has an open mind, and possesses the ability to discuss great ideas with other peopleвЂ“a love of reading is an essential foundation.
I love reading epic fantasies and big fat books and so I really wanted to write one. I think you always write what you want to read.
People don’t always realize that my parents shared a sense of intellectual curiosity and a love of reading and of history.
We shouldn’t teach great books; we should teach a love of reading. Knowing the contents of a few works of literature is a trivial achievement. Being inclined to go on reading is a great achievement.
I think that my love of cooking grew out of my love of reading about cooking. When I was a kid, we had a bookcase in the kitchen filled with cookbooks. I would eat all my meals reading about meals I could have been having.
A book is a device to ignite the imagination.
No entertainment is so cheap as reading, nor any pleasure so lasting.

In this riveting story of one woman’s struggle to find love, acceptance, and significance, hope springs forth in the most unexpected places.
Our prayer is that readers of all ages will see themselves in the pages of this story, but even more that they will see the truth, goodness, and beauty of God as He works to bring about His purposes in every life. In the end, we hope that your heart will join with us and the psalmist in proclaiming:
I shall not die, but I shall live,
and recount the deeds of the LORD.
The LORD has disciplined me severely,
but he has not given me over to death.
Open to me the gates of righteousness,
that I may enter through them
and give thanks to the LORD.
Psalm 118:17-19 (ESV)


I firmly believe that everyone should take time to read for self-education and enrichment. Below is a list a books that I’ve read over the past 10 years that have enriched both my personal finance life and professional life. This list will be updated periodically, with the last update occurring April 2017.
The Richest Man in Babylon
The Richest Man in Babylon is probably my favorite personal finance book, particularly because the book conveys timeless nuggets of wisdom in perfectly crafted parable form. A few of my favorite lessons contained within this book include the following: Pay Yourself First ( “Start thy purse to fattening.”), Live below your means (“Control thy expenditures”), and Put Your Money to Work (“Make thy gold multiply”). Simple concepts indeed, but you must read the book to really get the wisdom contained within each of these sayings. The book took me about 6-7 hours to read, and I have plans to go back and read it again soon. I hope to do an expanded book review sometime this year.
Your Money or Your Life
Three reasons why this book is worth buying: 1) The authors actually explain what “money” is. How many personal finance books take the time to do that these days? 2) The authors do a great job of explaining that when you spend money, you are actually spending a part of your life. Would you throw your life away as carelessly as you throw your money away through frivolous spending? 3) This book guides you through a thorough – and I mean THOROUGH – evaluation of your income, expenses, and spending. Good read for anyone looking to take a very introspective look at how they view and handle money.
The Bogleheads’ Guide to Investing
Bogleheads = Devout followers of John C. Bogle’s (Founder: Vanguard Company) investment philosophy, particularly, invest in low-cost index funds. This book is a great primer on everything you need to know about investing, including index fund investing, bonds, asset allocation, diversification, handling taxes, and why trying to time the market doesn’t work.
How to Win Friends & Influence People
Dale Carnegie’s style of writing is super engaging. No wonder he was so able to win friends & influence people! I have to admit, when I first heard the title of this book, I held off on purchasing it because I assumed it was nothing more than a book about social manipulation (sorry). I finally picked it up in 2014 and I’m glad I did – This book is staying in my Kindle Library. That said, I still have not made it through the entire book. The chapters are a bit long and, while entertaining, some of the points are overstated a bit through numerous anecdotes. Still, this is an eye-opening gem, especially for a natural introvert like me.
The First 90 Days
Prior to my move to Hong Kong to help stabilize and re-build a small team, I was hungry for some kind of direction on how to carefully navigate the first few months of a new role. I came across Michael Watkins’ The First 90 Days and found it to be exactly what I needed to hit the ground running and properly navigate my new role. Concepts such as promoting yourself mentally in order to prepare for a new role, how to secure early wins, and how to create coalitions were ground breaking to me as a new manager. I have since used the lessons within this book to hit the ground running in subsequent transitions.
Your Next Move
Speaking of transitions, I came across another of Watkins’ gems prior to our move to Hong Kong – Your Next Move. The tag line of this books says it all: The Leader’s Guide to Navigating Major Career Transitions. Great nuggets of wisdom contained in this book include the following: How to handle an international move, how to handle joining a new organization, and how to handle corporate diplomacy. Highly recommended for anyone looking to make a major career move, including an overseas assignment, internal move, external move, or pending promotion.
The Personal MBA
I’ve always wanted to get my MBA. But, due to time commitment, cost, and not being able to attend due to being overseas, that dream will have to wait! In the meantime, I recently picked up the book The Personal MBA: Master the Art of Business. I love the way the author gives concise explanations of Marketing, Sales, Business, Finance, Psychology, and Systems concepts that strike a great balance between enough information to leave you feeling sufficiently informed but not so much as to leave you feeling confused and overwhelmed.
Debt Free Living
This book makes its point about the value of debt free living through exploring five stories about people who fell into to debt and detailing how they climbed out of debt. Recommended for anyone who likes to learn by reading about others’ mistakes and eventual triumphs. The author also talks about what the Bible says about debt and borrowing, while also describing common debt traps.
Rich Dad Poor Dad
Although I do not agree with everything that Robert Kiyosaki teaches (he’s a bit too cavalier about the use of leverage for my taste), I love this book. I read it for the first time around the age of 24 and was excited to learn about using assets to generate income. This is still a great read for financial independence inspiration.
The Effective Executive
Peter Drucker – one of the all-time great management consultants – aced it with this book. Very good read for anyone moving into a role that requires ownership of how your time is spent and what results you deliver. Some great nuggets include: Two chapters focused on how to make effective decisions, how to manage your time as an executive (one of the reasons why I regularly block off 1-2 hours to get major projects and initiatives done), and identifying the right things to get done and focusing on those few things. Not necessarily the easiest read as the book is a bit dated, but it’s been one of the most rewarding books I’ve read.
The Effective Manager
This is a fairly new book that focuses on effectively managing people (whereas The Effective Executive focuses on effectively executing as a leader in an organization). I had actually already been practicing the management framework contained within this book prior to picking it up in 2016, but it does a good job of laying a basic framework for managing people that is easy to understand and teach to new managers. For more in-depth info, you can tune into the author’s podcast – Manager Tools.


Lessons From The Miracle Doctors
Reviewer: M Phillips from New York, NY USA (Jan. 17, 2005)
Jon Barron's book is a safe harbor in the sea of conflicting and confusing medical "advice" that's out there. In both this book and his website, I have found a truly intelligent source to help me understand and deal with all the common medical challenges that most of us face. I've been an avid student of alternative/complimantary medicine for over 25 years, and I can honestly say that my health has improved more from following Barron's principles than from many of the Doctors I've gone to or the many hundreds of books that I've read in the past.
Reviewer: Cindy from Dallas, TX USA
The most concise, understandable, information filled, book written on nutrition I have ever read. The Miracle Doctors provides enough information to manage your health and nutrition without have an education on this subject. Summarization at the end of each chapter and at the end of the book is a perfect tool to use as a list to shop for the nutritionals you chose. The Miracle Doctors spells out which nutritionals you can benefit from on an individual level.
Reviewer: Martin St John from Los Angeles, CA USA
Stop! I would not read a single chapter if you aren't prepared to confront some cold hard facts about your health and if you aren't prepared to challenge most of what you've been told up until know. This is a factual 'in your face' approach to long term health. Mr. Barron shoots straight from the hip - drawing on over 30 years of experience in the alternative health arena.
Jon begins by exposing some frightening statistics about the modern medical system making no apologies along the way. However, rather than curse the darkness, he offers the reader a true understanding of just how their body works, how it is affected by internal and external factors, how their health has been "STOLEN" from them and how they can ultimately begin to take it back.
This is not a lick and a promise, it is a roadmap. It is by far the most thorough yet concise work on the subject of natural health I've ever seen. If you have given up on "Magic Bullets" and are ready to take responsibility for your own health buy this book today!
ABSOLUTELY THE BEST!!!
Reviewer: Christi Honaker from Fort Atkinson Wisconsin
When I received a copy of Lessons From the Miracle Doctors, I couldn't put it down! It is absolutely the BEST reading material I've read in a long long LONG time!
Jon pulls no punches in this book. He is very straight forward and tells it like it is!
I've used this book to learn more about taking better care of my body AND how to lose weight effectively and SAFELY and believe me, it's been the best that's happened to me!
Thanks Jon.....you are simply brilliant!


A winter festival for children: twinkling lights, festive Christmas decorations and a dazzling programme.
At the end of the year, when the days are at their shortest, Maison de la Poste is set for a magical metamorphosis. First, twinkling lights will brighten up the various rooms. Not long after, Christmas trees will start to appear everywhere, festively decorated with baubles of every shape and size, and tinsel that seems to go on forever. A sprinkling of fairy dust here and there and this magnificent building in the middle of Brussels will be ready for the first ever Kids Winter Wonderland,a winter festival especially for youngsters.
Experience a wonderful day with the whole family. Enthusiastic elves show you the way. On the ground floor, an impressive array of bouncy castles over 800m2 will get every kid’s stomach fluttering and legs bouncing.
The adjoining winter bar will serve hot drinks and yummies for the whole family. Popcorn, candy floss and 1001 different kinds of sweets! If you’re hungry for something more substantial, visit one of the food trucks by the door for fresh pancakes, hot chocolate and hearty snacks.
Ready to continue your winter adventure? On the first floor there’ll be a fun library story time and Christmas-themed face painting. You can also enjoy one of the spellbinding theatre shows, which are scheduled several times a day. And there’s a baby corner to ensure the littlest ones also have a ball. Fancy magical stories? Make your way to the fairy tale storyteller.
You can also try one of the creative workshops: make a Christmas bauble for your tree at home. And don’t go home before you’ve seen Santa and had your picture taken with him.
All told, a Christmas holiday you’ll never forget!
It is organized by Tour & Taxi in Brussels. For more information and tickets click here.


Since the 1990s (and even earlier, through tape trades conducted through soap opera newsletters), many Another World episodes have been available to fans.
The AWHP established the AWVL to funnel its own collections, acquired over the years from various sources from reclusive collectors to television producers who were able to acquire direct master copies from the actual P&G archives.
The show itself didn't start making it a habit to save episodes until almost 1980 (best estimates place the exact date around October 1, 1979). Material from 1964-1979 existed (and some still exists, unattainable) in private hands, usually contemporaneous AW actors/producers.
From the 1990s to the 2000s, the AWVL distributed VHS copies. In the 2000s, the episodes were digitized to VCD MPEG-1 and distributed on DVD.
Between 2003 and 2010, P&G and its spin-off company Telenext Media distributed episodes via on-line services and TV cable stations.
From July 2003 to April 2007, SOAPnet, an ABC channel, rebroadcast 975 episodes. The episodes in question originally aired on NBC from July 1, 1987 to May 10, 1991.
From 2006 to January 2009, 323 episodes were made available through America Online's AOL Video service, downloadable free of charge. The episodes in question originally aired on NBC from August 1, 1980 to November 19, 1981.
From July 29, 2008 to October 21, 2010, the video streaming website Hulu released 360 episodes online. As of December 2009, the same episodes seen through Hulu were also available on Telenext Media's official YouTube channel. The episodes in question originally aired on NBC from May 10, 1991 (the last one that SOAPnet had aired) to October 5, 1992.
Starting in the 2010s, all of the aforementioned digitized episodes (including the AWVL's own collection) became directly available online, either through storage sites like SendSpace or through video sharing sites like YouTube and DailyMotion.
Storage sites are expensive, and without a financing plan in place, they folded, including the AWVL's own attempt to maintain an online storage library. Today, you'll find most of the material that had been once available on VHS available for viewing/downloading on YouTube.
The problem though is that YouTube re-encodes everything when a video is uploaded, with most often the end result being videos of substantially poorer quality. YouTube will even shrink the dimensions of the original video in some cases. This is true even when uploading an MP4 file (the preferred YouTube format) that has been specifically encoded with optimal settings for use on YouTube. YouTube will also mute the audio, delete videos, and even delete complete channels without warning. Though YouTube is a convenient way to view videos, there is simply no way to view (or share) the original file in its original unaltered format and level of uncompressed quality there.
Our hope is to find a new, better, and hopefully more permanent way to not only re-share these episodes via AWHP, but to share even better quality versions of what was previously available, as well as ones that weren't and aren't available anywhere else. We have begun the task of encoding episodes directly from the original VHS tapes into full MPEG-2 DVD versions using a top of the line Pioneer DVD recorder, with audio software used as needed to remove wind noise and enhance overall audio quality. If you have any questions or insight you'd like to share about the technical aspects of the encoding process, or better still have tapes you'd like to share (loan or sell), please send us an email
These will be freely shared over the internet, and we are currently exploring low-cost feasible options. If you have any ideas in this regard, please share them.
In the interim, we can offer, upon request, up to 10 re-encoded episodes at a time. Upon receiving a request, these episodes will made available for download for a limited time, due to the limited amount of space we currently have. In the event that multiple people request different episodes, the requests will be filled in the order that they were received and you will be notified when your files are ready for download.
An exact list of which episodes have been re-encoded thus far can be found here, along with instructions on how to place the request.
On the pages below you'll find evolving lists of the AW episodes available online, along with their original source, their current location for downloading/viewing, and their quality. Our main priority will be listing the status and availability of our improved re-encoded versions, but as well we hope to maintain a comprehensive list of all the episodes that have been digitized and placed online.
AWVL MASTER EPISODE LISTS - DIGITAL ENCODES
Many of these new encodes will actually be re-encodes of episodes mentioned earlier that AWVL digitized in the 2000s using the VCD MPEG-1 format. Much like YouTube, although convenient in terms of saving space, the VCD MPEG-1 format unfortunately heavily compresses both video and audio, meaning a low quality encode. DVD MPEG-2 on the other hand produces a good quality encode (depending on the VHS source quality of course) with full uncompressed video and audio. MP4 versions will also be created. Although these will be smaller in terms of file size, the quality will remain virtually identical to the DVD MPEG-2 encodes.
Here is a rundown of the differences between VCD MPEG-1 and DVD MPEG-2, followed by screenshots and sample video clips:
VCD MPEG-1 resolution is 352x240. This is half the horizontal and vertical resolution of NTSC video (DVD) and approximately half the resolution of an analog VHS tape which is ~330 horizontal and 480 vertical (NTSC).
Overall VCD picture quality is intended to be comparable to VHS video, however VCD video can often be of lower quality than VHS video, for example exhibiting VCD block artifacts (rather than the analog noise seen in VHS sources). Producing VCDs involves stripping out high and low frequency sounds from the video, resulting in lower audio quality than VHS. VCD audio is MPEG Layer 2 224 kbps.
On the other hand, DVD MPEG-2 encoding produces full resolution video (720x480) with no block artifacts, and full audio quality (which will further be enhanced by removing extra wind noise when needed). DVD audio is Dolby Digital 256 kbps.
They say a picture is worth a thousand words, so here are some screenshots that illustrate how the new DVD encodes look compared to the old VCD ones:
BEFORE (old VCD MPEG-1 encode)
AFTER (new DVD MPEG-2 encode)
As you can see, not only is the new encode sharper/clearer, but the colors (particularly the skin tones) are much improved with none of the rainbow-like color distortions present anymore.
Below you can download 2 clips (one encoded to VCD MPEG-1 and the other to DVD MPEG-2), which really shows the differences and improvements. Both clips were made from the same old 2nd generation VHS tape:
Along with re-encoding old VHS tapes to DVD MPEG-2, we are also constantly looking for better source recordings, so if you have anything you would like to contribute or share, whether they be VHS tapes or alternate/better digital encodes, please let us know. Some of the video files we are currently trying to acquire copies of would be the original AOL files that were made available (we have 13 of them in WMV and FLV format – the rest of our videos are VCD MPEG-1 conversions). We are also looking for possibly higher quality videos from the HULU period, and to complete our SOAPnet episode airings.
An exact list of episodes in other forms of media and formats can be found in Collections.

Rowan asked for another pig tail this morning and then decided on the unicorn.
Rowan saw my pony tail and decided he wanted one. He prefers to call it a pig tail and his looks kind of like one.
Rowan loves to sleep with books and a few stuffies. One night I read to him in the rocking chair and left the books beside the chair and when I came downstairs I heard him scurry across the floor to grab all his books and bring them back to his bed. We have a bookworm on our hands.

The Broadview Library, in collaboration with the Broadview Museum and Communities in Bloom, hosted local author Shirley Harris on Wednesday afternoon.
Harris, a resident of Wolseley, made a presentation and reading from her book Forgotten Gardens, Abandoned Landscapes, published in 2007.
Harris was born in Kennedy and graduated from Luther College in Regina where she went on to become a teacher.
She is a master gardener who has taken particular interest in heritage gardens writing and teaching seminars about the association and relationship shared between art history and garden design.
Although Harris didn’t intend on authoring a book, she said she resonated and took interest with research she uncovered in relation to the historic gardens situated on Canadian Pacific Railway property across western Canada.
Forgotten Gardens, Abandoned Landscapes rekindles memories of long-lost train station gardens, introduces another chapter of the lives of the West’s pioneers and answers questions regarding the remaining seemingly oddly-placed trees and hedges near the main streets of many communities.

Moreover, the number of gibbons depicted in the painting can be flexible, not only limited to three, sanyuan. Since the positions in Song courts are hold by elites who achieved jinshi degree, the paintings with gibbons, egrets or deer are used for praising those elites in general. During Song dynasty, the connection between painters and literati, paintings and poem is closer. This timelessness theme evolved from Six Dynasty period and early Northern Song.
A donkey rider travelling through the mountains, rivers and villages is studied as an important iconographical character in developing of landscape painting. In this specific painting Travelers in a wintry forest , the potential candidates for the donkey rider are dismissed and the character can only be Meng Haoran. Meng Haoran has made more than two hundred poems in his life but none of them is related with donkey ride.
Depicting him as a donkey rider is a historical invention and Meng represents a general persona than an individual character. Ruan Ji was depicted as donkey rider since he decided to escape the office life and went back to the wilderness. The donkey he was riding is representing his poverty and eccentricity. Du Fu was portrayed as the rider to emphasis his failure in office achievement and also his poor living condition. Meng Haoran, similar to those two figures, disinterested in office career and acted as a pure scholar in the field of poem by writing real poems with real experience and real emotional attachment with the landscape.
The donkey rider is said to travel through time and space. The audience are able to connect with the scholars and poets in the past by walking on the same route as those superior ancestors have gone on. Besides the donkey rider, there is always a bridge for the donkey to across. The bridge is interpreted to have symbolic meaning that represents the road which hermits depart from capital city and their official careers and go back to the natural world.
The theme of the art in display is carefully picked to reflect not only a personal taste, but also his social status and political achievement. In emperor Zhezong's lecture hall, a painting depicting stories form Zhou dynasty was hanging on the wall to remind Zhezong how to be a good ruler of the empire. The painting also serves the purpose of expressing his determination to his court officers that he is an enlightened emperor.
Most educated and respected scholars were selected and given the title xueshi. They were divided into groups in helping the Instituted of Literature and were described as descending from the immortals. Xueshi are receiving high social status and doing carefree jobs. Lately, the xueshi yuan, the place where xueshi lives, became the permanent government institution that helped the emperor to make imperial decrees.
During Tang dynasty reign of Emperor Xianzong , the west wall of the xueshi yuan was covered by murals depicting dragon-like mountain scene. In , immortal animals like Mount Ao, flying cranes, and xianqin, a kind of immortal birds were added to the murals. Those immortal symbols all indicate that the xueshi yuan as eternal existing government office. During Song dynasty, the xueshi yuan was modified and moved with the dynasty to the new capital Hangzhou in The mural painted by Song artist Dong yu, closely followed the tradition of Tang dynasty in depicting the misty sea surrounding the immortal mountains.
The scenery on the walls of the Jade Hall which full of mist clouds and mysterious land is closely related to Taoism tradition. When Yan Su, a painter followed the style of Li Cheng, was invited to paint the screen behind the seat of the emperor, he included elaborated constructed pavilions, mist clouds and mountain landscape painting in his work. The theme of his painting is suggesting the immortal realm which accord with the entire theme of the Jade Hall provides to its viewer the feeling of otherworldliness.
Another painter, Guo Xi made another screen painting for emperor Shenzong, depicting mountains in spring in a harmonized atmosphere. The image also includes immortal elements Mount Tianlao which is one of the realms of the immortals. In his painting, Early Spring, the strong branches of the trees reflects the life force of the living creatures and implying the emperor's benevolent rule. Northern Song landscape painting different from Southern Song painting because of its paradigm shift in representation.
If Southern Song period landscape painting is said to be looking inward, Northern Song painting is reaching outward. Whereas Southern Song painters decided to focus on personal expression. The painting, A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains is horizontally displayed and there are four mountain ranges arranged from left to right. Similar to another early Southern Song painter, Zhou Boju, both artists glorified their patrons by presenting the gigantic empire images in blue and green landscape painting.
The only difference is that in Zhou's painting, there are five mountain ranges that arranges from right to left. The scenes in the Sothern Song paintings are about north landscape that echos the memory of their lost north territory. However, ironically, some scholars suggested that Wang Ximeng's A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains depicts the scenes of the south not the north. Apart from the contemporary Confucian tradition of insisting on human cultivation and learning to be more educated and build up social framework, Taoist persist on going back to human's origin, which is to be ignorance.
Taoists believe that if one discard wise, the robbery will stop. If people abandon expensive jewelry, thieves will not exist. From Han Dynasty, the practice of Taoism was associated with alchemical and medicine made. In order to better pursuit Taoism belief, Taoist need to go on pilgrim into specific mountains to connect themselves with the spirits and immortals that lived in those mountains. In the third and fourth century, the practice of escaping society and going back to nature mediating in the countryside is further enhanced by a group called Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove who would like to escape from the civil unrest.
The wise men fleet the world and wonder in the countryside and enjoy the tranquil landscape and forgot to return. The Taoism ideology of forgetfulness, self-cultivation, harmonizing with nature world, and purifying soul by entering the isolated mountains to mediate and seek medicine herbs create the scene of landscape painting. During Han Dynasty, the mountains appeared in the design of the artworks shows the prevalence role of mountain in Han society.
The emperor would climb on to the mountain to sacrifice and religion practice because mountains are thought to have connection between earth and heaven and can link human with spirits and immortals. Hence, landscape painting is used as an object for Taoism practice which provide visualize form for religious ritual. During Six Dynasty period, the landscape painting experienced a stylistic change which myth and poem depiction were introduced into the painting. Furthermore, in Buddhism practice, the mountain also has an important role in religious practice.
From iconographical point of view, a Buddha's image is essence in helping a believer to practice meditation. For instance, Buddha's reflection image, or shadow, is assimilated the image of a mountain, Lushan. This assimilation is also recorded in a poem by poet from Six Dynasty period who pointed out that the beauty and nominosity of the mountain can elevate the spiritual connection between human being and the spirits.
Thus, the landscape painting come into display Buddha's image in people's everyday ritual practice. Moreover, spiritual elevation can be achieved by contemplating in front of landscape painting which depict the same mountain and path those old sages have been to. The painting contains both the spiritual force ling and the truth li of Buddha and also the objects that no longer physically presence.
Hui-Yuan's famous image is closely relation with its landscape scene indicating the trend of transformation from Buddha image to landscape painting as a religious practice. In Chinese society, there is a long-time appreciation of natural beauty. The early themes of poems, artworks are associated with agriculture and everyday life associates with fields, animals. On the other hand, later Chinese painting pursuits majesty and grand.
Thus, mountain scenery become the most popular subject to paint because it's high which represent human eminence. Also, mountain is stable and permanent suggests the eminent of the imperial power.
Furthermore, mountain is difficult to climb showing the difficulties human will face through their lives. Landscape painting evolved under the influence of Taoist who fled from civil turbulence and prosecution of the government and went back to the wilderness. However, the development of Taoism was hindered by Han dynasty. During Han dynasty, the empire expanded and enlarged its political and economic influence.
Hence, the Taoism's anti-social belief was disfavored by the imperial government. Han rulers only favored portrait painting which enabled their image to be perpetuate and their civilians to see and to memorize their great leaders or generals. Landscape at that time only focus on the trees for literary or talismanic value. The usage of landscape painting as ornament is suspects to be borrowed from other societies outside Han empire during its expansion to the Near East. Landscape and animal scene began to appear on the jars, but the decoration has little to do with connection with the natural world.
Also, there is evidence showing that the emerging of landscape painting is not derived from map-making. During the Three Kingdoms and Six Dynasty, landscape painting began to have connection with literati and the production of poems. Taoism influence on people's appreciation of landscaping deceased and nature worshipping superseded. However, Taoist still used landscape painting in their meditation just as Confucius uses portrait painting in their ritual practice. Ku Kai Chih's admonitions During this time period, the landscape painting is more coherence with variation trees, rocks and branches.
Moreover, the painting is more elaborated and organized. The evolution in landscape painting during Six Dynasty is that artists harmonized sprit with the nature. Wu Tao-tzu Buddhism might also contribute in affecting changes in landscape painting. The artists began to show space and depth in their works where they showed mountain mass, distanced hills and clouds. The emptiness of the space is helping the believers meditating to enter the space of emptiness and nothingness. The most important development in landscape painting is that people came to recognize the infinity variation of the nature world, so they tended to make each tree individualized.
Every landscape painting is restricted by storytelling and is dependent on artists memory. Female characters are almost excluded from traditional Chinese painting under the influence of Confucianism. Under the three-bond theory, women are depicted as housewives who need to obey to their husbands and fathers in literature.enspirexunun.cf/long-after-youre-gone.php
Similarly, in the portrait paintings, female characters are also depicted as exemplary women to elevate the rule of males. A hand roll Exemplary Women by Ku Kai Zhi, a six Dynasty artist, depicted woman characters who may be a wife, a daughter or a widow. During the Tang dynasty , artists slowly began to appreciate the beauty of a woman's body shinu. Artist Zhang Xuan produced painting named palace women listening to music that captured women's elegance and pretty faces.
However, women were still being depicted as submissive and ideal within male system. During the Song dynasty , as the love poem emerged, the images associated with those love stories were made as attractive as possible to meet the taste of the male viewers. Making a distinction between map and art is difficult because there are cartographic elements in both paintings. Early Chinese map making considered earth surface as flat, so artists would not take projection into consideration. Moreover, map makers did not have the idea of map scale. Chinese people from Song dynasty called paintings, maps and other pictorial images as tu, so it's impossible to distinguish the types of each painting by name.
Artists who paint landscape as an artwork focus mainly on the natural beauty rather on the accuracy and realistic representation of the object. Map on the other hand should be depicted in a precise manner which more focus on the distance and important geographic features. The Changjiang Wan Li Tu, although the date and the authorship are not clear, the painting is believed to be made in Song dynasty by examining the place names recorded on the painting.
Only based on the name of this painting, it is hard to distinguish whether this painting is painted as a landscape painting or as a map. The Shu Chuan Shenggai was once thought as the product done by North Song artist Li Gonglin, however, later evidence disapproved this thought and proposed the date should be changed to the end of South Song and artist remains unknown.
Both those paintings, aiming to enhance viewers appreciation on the beauty and majesty of landscape painting, focusing on the light condition and conveying certain attitude, are characterized as masterpiece of art rather than map. Shanshui in Chinese tradition is given rich meaning, for example mountain represents Yang and river indicates Yin. According to Yin Yang theory, Yin embodies Yang and Yang involved in Yin, thus, mountain and river is inseparable and is treated as a whole in a painting.

My brilliant sister, Libby thought up this adorable idea. Why not add a little flare and keepsake value to your next gift? Get an awesome book that relates to the person you're gifting to and then put a fun calligraphed inscription inside! Here are a few examples of wedding gifts that Libby and I have put together:
The book I wrote in for this one was "The Giving Tree" by Shel Silverstein... always a lovely choice. Such a special story.
The book for this inscription was "This is San Francisco" by M. Sasek. This book and the all others by this author/illustrator are ADORABLE. Excellent book choices. Unfortunately I took this picture with my not-so-great camera in very low light so it's a bit blurry but you get the idea.

Phonics and Reading
#Every Child a Writer #Every Child a Reader
At Langland Community School, a love of reading is promoted across the curriculum and a high emphasis is placed on this through our curriculum and school environment.
The Read Write Inc. programme is used to teach early reading in Early Years and Year 1. This provides children with tools and confidence they need to decode and encode and develops early reading comprehension skills. This is a cohesive and creative approach to teaching reading and is also used as an intervention for those children who need further support in the decoding aspect of reading in KS1 and KS2. Children’s reading books are matched to their phonics knowledge, allowing them to embed their learning both in school and at home and become fluent readers.
Our Talk for Reading (TfR) curriculum teaches reading skills through the exploration of quality and challenging texts. The TfR texts have been carefully selected to ensure children are experienced in ‘the five plagues of reading’ (Doug Lemov); archaic language, non-linear time sequences, misleading narrative/complex narrative, figurative/symbolic texts and resistant texts, enabling children to comprehend more complex texts and readying them for the challenges of the secondary curriculum.

Rival Cuts: Process & Technique in Prints by Tom Hück & Albrecht Dürer
"It was just a real spiritual, knock you on your ass sort of awakening for me. In that very moment of pulling the paper off of the block I found what I was born to do." -- Tom Hück
Contemporary artist Tom Hück (American, b. 1971) is a self-avowed troublemaker who, in his own words, has been “disgusting the masses since 1995.” Throughout his 20-plus year career, his brash sociopolitical commentary has drawn from great satirical artists like Hogarth, Daumier, and cartoonist R. Crumb. His technique, however, is inspired by the famed German woodcut artists of the Northern Renaissance, including Albrecht Dürer and Martin Schongauer. The exhibition Rival Cuts: Process & Technique in Prints by Tom Hück & Albrecht Dürer, brings together a selection of Hück’s woodcuts with works by Dürer, his printmaking hero. Created more than five centuries apart, the prints seen here display technical virtuosity, the two artists’ aptitude for pushing the medium of woodcut to its most visceral and corporeal limits, and Hück’s quest to rival the masterworks of his idol.
Since its emergence in the West around the turn of the fifteenth century, the medium of print has become home for the ambitious, obsessive creators and the unabashedly curious news junkies of the art world. The widespread production of paper allowed for the creation of multiple images, known as impressions, from a single block of wood or one engraved copperplate. Works of art, once singular and prohibitively expensive, were made both affordable and widely available. Many artists of the Renaissance were attracted by the ability to mass-produce and disseminate their work, but none more so than Albrecht Dürer. Although he was also a gifted draughtsman and painter, Dürer’s greatest contributions to art lie in the field of printmaking, which he almost single-handedly transformed into an independent art form. In his prints, Dürer achieved a level of imagination, tonal control, and technical mastery unmatched by his predecessors and coveted by later artists.
Born 500 years after the great printmaker, Hück first encountered Dürer’s work at age 12. He saw Dürer’s Apocalypse series at two separate locations during that pivotal year, a surprise that led to the young artist’s first lesson in printmaking: the possibility of creating multiple images from a single block. From that moment on, Hück has obsessed over the history of printmaking. He enters his studio each day with the goal of cementing his own place in its history, alongside the masters whom he considers his “family.” For example, Hück created The Great War-Madillo, as a tribute to Dürer and his celebrated woodcut, The Rhinoceros.
Like his Renaissance predecessors, Hück creates complicated allegorical and metaphorical imagery. Rather than drawing from the religious sources that predominate the early modern era, however, Hück’s content originates in his hometown of Potosi, Missouri, and surrounding rural areas. From exaggerated depictions of notorious events and legends to a biting ideological critique of the American heartland expressed allegorically through images of a traditional county fair, Hück’s woodcuts expose what he views as an underbelly of ignorance, debauchery, and dissolution that so often exists beneath the idyllic veneer of small town America.


For Pre-Apprentices and Apprentice Applicants.
Some things to consider and do before you start looking for a sponsor.
1. Contact the Falconry Coordinator at the Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation, and ask for a falconry information packet.
2. Read and Study the State and Federal falconry regulations.
3. Read as much as you can on the subject of falconry. Falconry books are available in many libraries. Take advantage of the inter-library loan system. Many new falconry books are available online and there is a great deal of information on the web. Familiarize yourself with falconry terminology, raptor biology, and general falconry husbandry and training concepts.
4. Attend some of the state club functions. The OFA has an annual picnic in June, falconry workshops in the fall, and a field meet each winter. Details of these events are posted in advance on the OFA website. This is an excellent way to determine if falconry is for you. Make contact with falconers and get into the field to observe falconry in action. It will require you to adjust your schedule to fit theirs. Meeting different falconers may enable you find a potential sponsor.
5. With the above experience behind you, and having thoroughly researched and studied falconry, you may find that you are determined to make a commitment to pursue licensing. At this point you will need to begin the process of selecting a sponsor if you haven’t found one already. OFA Apprentice Coordinators will assist you in finding potential falconer sponsors nearest you.
The falconers you contact about your apprenticeship will want to meet you in person to discuss falconry and to determine that you are ready and willing to do what it takes to become a falconer. Falconers receive many requests for sponsorship, but few applicants actually persevere to meet the demands required of an apprentice falconer. It is at least a two-year commitment for the apprentice as well as the sponsor. He or she will want assurance that his commitment to mentoring you will be a fruitful one. Expect this to be a thorough and informative decision-making process.
Obtaining a falconry license is very labor-intensive, but the apprenticeship, as well as the path to General and Master class levels is vital preparation for this passion-driven and difficult hunting art form. Falconer devotees insist the rewards are all worth the effort. For those of you who truly wish to become a falconer best of luck in your journey!
The Oklahoma Falconers Association-
Once you have completed all the necessary steps, and you think you are ready to take the plunge, contact one of our coordinators. They will ask you for a short biography to present to prospective sponsors. Good luck in your journey and enjoy the flight!

What kind of person signs up for a cage fight?
Aliyah, a mixed race Australian lives a solitary life as a computer specialist in London. She is born with an exceptional intelligence but her gifted mind does little to alleviate the pain she carries inside since her childhood.
One day Aliyah stumbles upon a mixed martial arts gym. Like many fighters before her she finds peace in a sport that is seemingly violent. She takes on training with a military discipline as an easy substitute for any meaningful bond in her life. Her journey to her debut cage fight is challenging, but it does nothing to prepare her for the biggest fight of her life.
Girl Fighter explores the motivations of a mixed martial artist, the challenges of women in combat sport and the unseen struggles of a brain injury survivor.
Amazon Customer Reviews
Review by Book Bloggers
“The depth of research is as impressive as the immersive setting; Girl, Fighter covers extensive subject matter from psychology and neurobiology to MMA culture and the geography (even psychogeography) of London. The confidence with which Night writes, gives the world in which Aliyah is situated the impression of being larger than merely her solitary narrative. Likewise, the supporting characters demonstrate enough complexity to be convincing as people with their own stories. It is an important feature for a novel about someone who experiences the world, often justly, as something encroaching and threatening. Night’s novel has recently been published in the form of an e-book and I would recommend it to everyone.”

I was at the library earlier today. I was looking for a book on filming and when I found it, I sat on the carpeted floor of the library, took out my lapmate and began typing out some good stuffs from the book. While typing, my eyes began to wander around. I saw these 2 school kids within my proximity so I took out my camera and snap! I noticed the library was rather empty compared to 10 years ago when you can hardly find any blank spot to settle down. It's also sad to know that kids these days are more interested in gaming rather than reading..


I hope to introduce readers to the series, as well as other books I write. I also want to discuss other topics relating to the young adult fantasy world and other genres. I will post information about the series here, and hear the opinions of my readers.
What is Evindoore, you might ask? Evindoore is a fantasy world where dragons fly in the Dragon Cliffs and elves live in Durvana. It is a magical land stretching from the Keeper’s House, all the way to the wastelands.
Elle Holden is introduced to Evindoore through Brian Hemlick, the football star of Linview High. He dares her to go knock on the door of the house above the hill. Her life is never the same again…
I am a lifelong reader of fantasy, and this has shaped much of what I write in the Evindoore series. You’ll read influences from Lord of the Rings, Eragon, and Fablehaven, twisted into a completely original plot where Elle Holden discovers this new world and the Alvarian language.
This series has been in the works for four years. I originally came up with the idea during a high school lecture, where I thought about a girl being dared to enter a house above the hill. She learned that the owner of the house was actually the caretaker of a mystical land, and she was going to be his apprentice. That was the earliest idea for the series. Since then, the overall concept has changed and grown, becoming what is now Evindoore. Finally, when I discovered what would happen in the end of the series, I knew I had to write it so I could share Elle’s story.
I hope that you enjoy the series. Feel free to leave comments and ask questions about it.
Until next time…
