Japanese, and also Chinese, culture interest me immensely. There's just something so rich and colourful about both- in particular regarding the Japanese geisha. And so when I saw this book a few weeks ago, I knew that it had to find a place on my book shelf.
The story follows the character of Chiyo Sakamoto from her childhood in a small fishing village, to her transformation into Sayuri, a successful geisha in Gion. The tale sees rivalry between Sayuri and Hatsumomo, another popular geisha who lives in the okia (geisha house) that Chiyo is first sent to, and Sayuri's attempting to navigate the world of the geisha- with the help of her "older sister" Mameha.
I wont go into the plot in too much detail as a) I want you to go and read the book for yourself, and b) there are so many terms that the book explains, which make it possible to actually understand the plot, that this review would become way too long if I were to define them all. One thing I did learn from this book was plenty of terms used in the life of a geisha and details about their world: okia, danna, mizuage, the grey market, the reason behind the 'split peach' hairstyle apprentice geisha wore, how the tying of the obi indicated whether a woman was a prostitute or a geisha...It was also incredible to see how geisha are different from prostitutes, something that many people felt they already knew the answer to when I told them about the book. The word geisha actually means artisan, and they had to become learned in dance, musical instruments, conversation, entertainment, and (of course) tea pouring ceremony. Upon reading of Sayuri's life you do become immersed in this traditional Japanese culture- which makes it all the harder to digest when the old world of Gion comes into contact with WW2. What at first seems to be a very personal tale of one girl's journey suddenly opens up into a much larger surrounding world, and it was humbling to see how this played out in the narrative. Chiyo's transformation into Sayuri was fascinating to watch, although as the novel progresses the reader begins to experience some unease surrounding events in her life. My top three unease-inducing moments include:
a) That Chiyo has been sold into the life by her parents
b) The ritual deflowering in the loss of her mizuage, and how Mameha explains what will happen during the loss of Sayuri's mizuage
c) The baron sexually harasses Sayuri and yet as long as he didn't rape her this is allowed to slide (although characters don't seem particularly condoning of it, I felt)
There are many difficult to digest things in this novel, but Golden successful weaves them into the plot in a way that although you may be disguised at points, there is no possible way to stop reading. It is hard to believe that a male writer can so wonderfully imitate the thoughts of a female character- particularly one whose career is centred around her sensuality and sexuality. This is probably one reason why Golden chooses to devote more time to facts surrounding the geisha lifestyle, and also Sayuri's intriguing internal monologue and thoughts. Golden is clearly a talented writer, both in this sense, and in the sense that the retrospective narrative still gives nothing away. He actually studied Japanese art at Harvard, Japanese History at Columbia, has learned Mandarin, has a BA in English from Boston, and has also lived and worked in Japan. When you consider all of this it is no wonder he captures the Japanese culture of the geisha in such vivid colours. Golden's writing style is one I particularly admire, and here I have some of my favourite quotes for you all, just so you can get a feel for it:
'Gion is like a faint star that comes out to it's fullest beauty only after the sun has set' - page 129
'We all know that a winter scene, though it may be covered one day, with even the trees dressed in shawls of snow, wil be unrecognisable the following spring. Yet I had never imagined such a thing could occur within our very selves' - p.161
'I had to wonder if men were so blinded by beauty that they would feel privileged to live their lives with an actual demon, so long as it was a beautiful demon'- p.225
The ending of the novel, after such realistic details scattered throughout (Chiyo is separated from her sister, and they never meet again being one example, in addition to all of the technical terms surrounding geisha life), had more of a fairy-tale feel. That Sayuri does achieve her goal of becoming the mistress of the Chairman seems unreal in one sense, but also a surprise in that at several points I as a reader suspected their relationship could never be. Having said this, the behaviour of other characters (Pumpkin) at the end of the novel was actually what shocked me the most, not the uniting of the Chairman and Sayuri.
I can wholeheartedly recommend this book to anyone interested in Japanese culture. The best way I can describe the novel is as a Japanese version of Cinderella. A much darker and more twisted Cinderella, but in the sense that we see the transformation of the maid Chiyo into the beautiful and renowned Sayuri, a version of the tale. Give or take some abortion, prostitution, and shamisen playing.

Western influence nevertheless led to many reforms in the 19th century and major concessions, most notably the loss of a large territory on the east side of the Mekong to the French and the step-by-step absorption by Britain of the Shan and Karen people areas and Malay Peninsula.As part of the concessions which the Chakri dynasty offered to the British Empire in return for their support, Siam ceded four predominantly ethnic-Malay southern provinces to the British Empire in the Anglo-Siamese Treaty of 1909.The Chinese called this region Xian, which the Portuguese converted into Siam." (Baker and Phongpaichit, A History of Thailand, 8) A further possibility is that Mon-speaking peoples migrating south called themselves 'syem' as do the autochthonous Mon-Khmer-speaking inhabitants of the Malay Peninsula. 1851–1868) reads SPPM (Somdet Phra Poramenthra Maha) Mongkut King of the Siamese, giving the name "Siam" official status until 24 June 1939 when it was changed to Thailand.Thailand was renamed to Siam from 1946 to 1948, after which it again reverted to Thailand.Following the decline and fall of the Khmer empire in the 13th–15th century, the Buddhist Tai kingdoms of Sukhothai, Lanna, and Lan Xang (now Laos) were on the rise.
Ayutthaya became one of the most vibrant trading centres in Asia.Ayutthaya's expansion centred along the Menam while in the northern valleys the Lanna Kingdom and other small Tai city-states ruled the area.In 1431, the Khmer abandoned Angkor after Ayutthaya forces invaded the city.According to George Cœdès, "The Thai first enter history of Farther India in the eleventh century with the mention of Syam slaves or prisoners of war in" Champa epigraphy, and "in the twelfth century, the bas-reliefs of Angkor Wat" where "a group of warriors" are described as Syam.Additionally, "the Mongols, after the seizure of Ta-li on January 7, 1253 and the pacification of Yunnan in 1257, did not look with disfavor on the creation of a series of Thai principalities at the expense of the old Indianized kingdoms." The Menam Basin was originally populated by the Mons, and the location of Dvaravati in the 7th century, followed by the Khmer Empire in the 11th.


The Obsidian Collection, a virtual portal of Black historic, artistic, and cultural images, is using blockchain technology to commemorate the American civil rights activist Dr Martin Luther King Jr.
Obsidian Images will offer consumers Non-fungible tokens, (NFTs) of rare photographs of Dr King during his historic visit to Chicago in 1966. These images were originally captured by John Tweedle, who was the first African American photographer hired by a major metropolitan newspaper.
The images show the legendary anti-racist activist challenging Chicago’s slumlords, institutional racism, and former Chicago Mayor, Richard J. Daley. There are also shots of King speaking to a crowd at Chicago stadium Soldier Field and a fundraiser for the movement at the city’s International Amphitheatre that drew famous Black actors and musicians including Sidney Poitier, Harry Belafonte, and Mahalia Jackson.
Obsidian will initially offer five images photographed by Tweedle which are part of an extensive collection owned by author, entrepreneur and philanthropist Hermene Hartman.
Launched in 2017 by Chicago entrepreneur Angela Ford, the Obsidian Collection are digitising visual content from Black photographers, organisations and newspapers for licensing and permission to use to tell Black stories, which is essential as the Black Lives Matter movement continues.
NFTs are part of the great innovation in digital technology and are unique digital assets that can be bought and sold using blockchain technology and include things such as artwork, music, videos, and more.
The Obsidian Collection also includes Obsidian WROTE, an online platform that allows Black writers to be discovered by media outlets and readers; the Obsidian Center, to digitise collections; and Obsidian House, a recently purchased historic mansion that will be renovated and opened as a workshare space for Black creative talent on Chicago’s South Side.
Angela Ford, Founder of The Obsidian Collection Archives said: “Licensing the image allows you to use it, for instance, to write a book. But when we sell an NFT, that person now owns it and can possibly resell it, license it or make it a screensaver—whatever they want to do with it. The most important fact is these rarely seen collectables are made available to new generations in new mediums.”

Today is Martin Luther King Day which is a federal holiday in the United States. For white business leaders globally, acknowledging the day and its message of racial equality is a form of allyship which could make your Black and ethnic minority colleagues feel seen and supported.
Here are a few pointers to get you started on commemorating Martin Luther King Day in your firm.
- Share an internal email commemorating the day, Dr King’s achievements, and your firm’s intention to become an anti-racist organisation
- Hold lunch and learn sessions on workplace anti-racism and allyship featuring diversity and inclusion experts and even Black colleagues who might want to share their experiences
- Open conversations about new and improved anti-racist programmes and policies at work, ensuring that Black staff are in decision-making positions in this process
- Think about community fundraising projects your workforce could engage in, and consult Black colleagues on what would be suitable

Texas in the Civil War
The Causes of the War
The Fugitive Slave Act, part of the Compromise of 1820, meant that slaves could be captured and returned to the South. It also made it a crime to assist a runaway slave.
John Brown was a violent abolitionist who led a raid on an armory at Harper's Ferry, Virginia to take the weapons to begin a slave revolt.

I haven't tried a lot of these techniques, so recreating this book would be a real educational experience. I don't have the time to do the sewing right now, but I could start transcribing the book and photographing the pages.
It's actually a really useful idea, to have physical samples of different sewing techniques. Sometimes, when you read sewing books, the information can feel so abstract, trying to infer three-dimensional processes from two-dimensional pictures. With the samples in this book, you can touch them and see them and turn them over...and presumably have a teacher to ask questions of and model techniques. There's definitely a sense of absence with this book; the absence of the teachers who made this book. Their signatures are in the book, their work is in this book, their knowledge is in this book, but where are they? I've tried to Google these names, but I haven't been successful in locating these women or their school. I don't even necessarily think I should have this book, it's so interesting and unique, but I don't know what institution would want to preserve and share this. So right now it rests on the top of my sewing books and bides its time.
Lessons Learned fits in perfectly with my other meditations on education. This book shows effort and thoughtfulness and care...who were these women? Who were their students? Did they inspire learning, and how? What do their students remember about them/class? What can I learn from this book now? Is it a useful model for sewing instruction? The book is dated with references to the students needing a "spirit of healthfulness" and a "quiet and workmenlike attitude," but it's also a nice example of community memory, with the different instructors supplying sewing samples. It would be lovely to have someone to work on with this, to engage in that spirit of community. Luckily, I am working at the Hunter College costume shop right now, so if I have questions, I can ask the head of the costume shop for help.

Hy Plains Drifters
The origin of the Hy Plains Drifters: The final years of the big push were desperate times, and many people were forced to commit crimes to feed their loved ones. The backlash from the government was draconian, and many good people found themselves undernourished and terrified in an overcrowded cell next to violent convicts. When the United States finally succumbed to it’s collapse the wardens of these prisons were forced to make a tough decision- do they release the prisoners they are responsible for en-masse, or let them all perish together in their cells? Not all of them made the same ruling, but they all lived with their decision for the rest of their lives.
Many of the prisoners that found themselves freed faded back into their past lives, but some had nowhere else to go and banded together, forming a tribal society based on many of the codes and mores practiced in the prison system.
During the two centuries (and change) known as the Dark Times the Drifters got by using a combination of hunting, gathering and pillaging. An oral history depicting the ‘thieves law’ many of the founders had adhered to in prison was adapted and became a strict tribal code of conduct. During this period most Drifter tribes also adopted ancestor worship, which was soon integrated with the mores of the tribes.
When a child is born in a drifter tribe they are taken from the parents and placed in the care of the communal wet nurses. These children are forbidden to know their lineage until they have earned that right through surviving a battle or great hunt. Through more brave or cunning acts the warrior may discover that they have distant ancestors and add them to their lineage (leaders have had visions of generals, khans and other historical figures as long lost relatives).
Most of the laws of the Hy Plains Drifters involve protecting the personal freedoms of the tribespeople, and all are punishable by banishment. When a Drifter is caught breaking the tenants of their tribe they become a ‘No Ghost’- branded, rendered sterile and cast out. A No Ghost will be shunned by all of the tribes and renounced by any children they may have, which to a Drifter is like never existing at all. Many No Ghosts take their own lives (the tribes do not practice imprisonment or execution due to their origin) but a few wander the lands, living a solitary existence and occasionally selling their skills as mercenaries.


Along with Stanley D. Brunn, and Donald J. Zeigler, Professor Hays-Mitchell and Associate Professor Graybill co-edited the Sixth edition of Cities of the World: Regional Patterns and Urban Environments.
The publisher notes: ‘This edition focuses specifically on urban environmental issues, social and economic injustice, security and conflict, the history of urban settlement, urban models, and daily life. Building on 2015 as the Year of Water, the book introduces urban water concerns as a common undercurrent running through all chapters. The contributors explore how water affects cities and how cities affect water—from glacier loss to growing aridity, sea-level rise, increased flooding, potable water scarcity, and beyond. Vignettes of key cities give the reader a vivid understanding of daily life and the “spirit of place.” ‘


The third novel of the Caesar Rising opening trilogy.
The human species is unique in the Galaxy; unique and very much alone in their titanic struggle for survival.
The galactic community of 14 advanced alien survivors of Armageddon is peaceful no longer; they have attempted to destroy mankind; destroy the perverted evolutionary mishap that is mankind, and they have failed. In fact, they have suffered a humiliating defeat. The aliens that live in a “time-slowed’ existence are completely vulnerable to mankind’s “real-time” aggression.
Trillions of normally peaceful aliens have fallen to the ruthless campaign of slaughter inflicted on them by mankind, a violent species fuelled by anger at the destruction of their world by the alien hands. The aliens want peace, but is peace possible with such a vengeful species as man?
Julius “Caesar” Ryan leads the survivors from Earth as the time of Armageddon arrives. The catalyst technology is known, but the singular uncontested rule of a powerful and sometimes necessarily brutal leader restricts human access to the technology until a survivable evolutionary path can be found. Only “Caesar” himself can be trusted with the ultimate application of this powerful and eternal life-giving technology.
Who is Julius “Caesar” Ryan? Can he save the remnants of mankind? Can there be peace?
Two alternative evolutionary paths.
Follow the twisted evolutionary journey of mankind to the point of
Armageddon . . . and beyond.
“Contest for the Galaxy” is the third and final novel of the opening trilogy of Caesar’s Rising. It follows the journey of man up to the point of Armageddon. Still a way off yet, but there will be a post-Armageddon series of Caesar Rising definitely. Outlines for the first novel can be found on this website soon.
The Caesar Rising series of novels use lateral thinking to derive meaning from the alien encounter at Roswell in 1947. Click here to learn more about the role of lateral thinking in unveiling the truth about our apocalyptic future.

The Malkovich – Kulich Ancestry Summary
Written by Phil Malkovich 2015/2016
A little background first.
When I first started this project, I did not realize how it began to connect me to our ancestors. It has been a very amazing and gratifying experience. Just looking at pictures of them made me feel closer to them and wanting to learn more but also at the same time regretting that I did not ask my father and mother about their lives and ancestry. I also now wish I would have traveled to their villages but I will have to leave that up to the younger generation now. It really would be a great experience.
I want to thank those that helped me by giving me information, documents, pictures memories, and discussions particularly Patti Dillaman, Antoinette Hum, Shirley Erwin. and Jonathan Wright (my son-in-law) for his technical support.
I am writing this summary in the first person which is easiest for me such as my Grandfather etc. I have highlighted links to the documents, letters, maps, city/village info etc from where I got my information from which have been scanned into the appendix of this summary. You will now have access to all the documents that we have gathered in one place but there is still more to come. I view this study as a living document as there are items still to uncover.
In this genealogy study, I will break it down to the Malkovich Clan and the Kulich (Andrijkulich) Clan.
In the Malkovich Appendix I have a linage graph showing dates and place of birth, death, marriage info, and children of those parents. There is also a tree graph but some names, dates, etc are left out as I did not have info on them. If you would like me to complete the tree, please send me the info to firstname.lastname@example.org and I will update it.
Having been in engineering most of my life, I tried to be as factual as I could in reaching my conclusions as best I could. The most confusing part of trying to be accurate though is that I find that there are not only different spelling of people’s names, places, towns, villages etc. in the material and maps that I have but also different countries on some of the documents. I will try to explain my interpretation of these inconsistencies as I go along. I also realize that others may interpret these inconsistencies differently and would welcome any input you might have.
I first advise you to go to the appendix and download the background page and see the maps to get a feel for the rest of this summary. It will show you how the nations came to be today and where the villages are that our ancestors came from.
WW1 Started July 28, 1914 and ended in 1918 which caused the breakup of the Austria-Hungry Empire. See the info on WW1 in the addendum to see how it was divided.
I have tried to find the arrival dates and which port our ancestors came in on to no avail. It could have been Ellis Island or possibly Philadelphia. Maybe someone else has info that could clear this up. I would appreciate any assistance. I searched Ancestry.com and Archives.com with no luck.
Now that we have the internet and have access to data bases and maps all over Europe it is a way we can now see the towns and villages by street and satellite maps. Seeing the mountains by satellite and zooming into the towns, it gives me an appreciation of where they came from. I can now see why the settled in Pennsylvania because it looks pretty much the same with the hills and mountains and the coal mines.
Here is the web site where you can zoom in on the satellite map and see what the villages look like today. Go to Google and just copy and paste (but you already know this) into the address bar www.latlong.net Then type in the village name i.e.: Tukhlia Ukraine and it will take you right to a satellite map of the village. In the upper LH corner you can change it to a regular map to see the borders as they exist today. This is where I got my maps in the appendix from.
I spent many many challenging days to try and find the birth places of our ancestors. What made it so difficult were the changes in dialect and alphabet of the various nations that held those territories. It seems each nation may have spelled the same town differently and so it depends on which map you were looking at. I searched dozens of archives in Europe and sites here in the U.S. and even got more confused.
Take for example my grandfather Michael Malkovich and family were born and raised in a village at that time possessed by the Austria Hungry Empire and was called Tuchla. I found this name on a Baptism record of my father John Malkovich. This one drove me crazy and I spent day after day trying to find that village. By inserting that name into google it kept putting me into Poland. What I eventually realized is that this document was in the time of the Austria-Hungry Empire time period and was written using their dialect and alphabet.
Also on that document was the city of Skoleand on other documents from a Doctor from the city of Skole (The doctor turned out to be a Notary and not an MD) that had the name Malkovich on it I found that the city was in the Ukraine, Through further research and using the latitude and longitude of Skole I finally found the present day spelling of the village was Tukhlya not Tuchla which I could now find on a google 2016 map.
The Kulich family was easier but still had different spellings. The village of the Andrijkulich family according to documents that we have puts them in Stavenow, Ukraine and not Czechoslovakia as some documents indicate. This is only just one of the inconsistencies I have found. On the 1920 and 1930 census it shows the country of birth of Michael Kulich as Czechoslovakia. I found that in WWI the village was in the Ukraine but Hitler gave the area to Czechoslovakia and then after the war it reverted back to the Ukraine because most of the people were Ukrainian.
I now find the present day spelling of the village is now Stavene. Not much of a change but still confusing. A document written by Anna Kulich Malkovich puts her birth in this village and she had also placed a mark on a World Atlas map as that to be the approximate location of her birth and a mark of the John Malkovich birth place. This was where I started my study from. I could not find the villages on this map but finally found them on the 2016 google map.
Now all you have to do is to go to the upper right hand side and pick which family you want to see.

Journal nr. 3/1120-0100-0966SEK/LOB
The Council meeting 22 June 2005
On 22 June 2005 the Danish Competition Council adopted a decision concluding that DBC medier had abused its dominant position under section 11 of The Danish Competition Act and Article 82 of the Treaty on the markets for distribution of films and computer programmes/games to public libraries in Denmark.
DBC medier sells books, music, films, computer programmes/games and talking books to Danish libraries intended for lending. DBC medier has exclusive rights to a considerable part of film- and computer programme titles. The exclusivity means that the libraries are obliged to buy a certain amount of titles from DBC medier.
Public libraries buy materials by means of public procurement. DBC medier makes use of rebates with the conditions that the libraries – when choosing a future distributor within the received tenders – choose DBC medier as distributor of all the different kinds of AV-materials (films, computer programmes, music and talking books) and of both titles with exclusivity to DBC medier and without exclusivity to DBC medier. The rebate system means that if a library chooses one of DBC medier’s competitors as a distributor of lending materials the library will loose the rebate on the materials which the library can only buy from DBC medier due to DBC medier’s exclusive rights.
DBC medier has a dominant position on both the market for distribution of films to public libraries and the market for distribution of computer programmes/games to public libraries.
The Competition Council concluded that there is no natural coherence between the different types of AV-materials, e.g. between music and computer programmes. As a consequence, DBC medier’s “all or nothing” rebates constitute indirect bundling in contravention of section 11 of the Danish Competition Act and article 82(2) of the Treaty.
The Competition Council ordered DBC medier to discontinue making it a condition that the libraries buy all sorts of AV-materials from DBC medier in order to obtain a rebate on films and computer programmes, and that DBC medier discontinues making it a condition that the libraries in order to obtain a rebate on titles to which DBC medier has exclusive rights also buy the titles to which DBC medier does not have exclusive rights.

Welcome to my new home page. It begins with a focus on the new book The Boy Who Slept Under the Stars: A Memoir in Poetry, published by Holy Cow! Press, September, 2012.
This new book emerged from the journal writing I did after my brother, Lloyd H. Skelton, disappeared in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness in 2005. Even though many people searched for him, they never found his body. How does one mourn without a body? The poems and prose poems express and explore this question. While writing about his life and my own grief, I found myself writing about other missing people, and they became part of the book as well.
I'll keep here a list public readings and update it, so you can check back for readings later in the fall. I'm also including two poems from the book (see below), as well as excerpts from readers' comments.
To order the book, go to:
Holy Cow! Press (http://www.holycowpress.org/)
or ask your local independent bookstore to order it.
This website is new and other links are on their way.

Cold Up North
my skull a terrarium of regrets
It was in that little cabin Up North
in that first cold summer of sorrow
where I sat in the cushioned rocker
and wrapped that heavy shawl around me
like a tiny woman by a winter hearth,
an electric heater the size of a bread box
at my feet, that a wail finally came up
from my gut listening/not listening/
to Highway 61 Revisited over and
over until the wailing slowed to tears
and rocking, slowed to a vision of my
brother climbing up our roof to find
the chink in the chimney that the bats
crawled in and me yelling at him,
Get down before you break your neck
and then the memory of arguing over
who owned which Dylan records,
the ones that now gather mice
in someone else's basement.
No longer cold,
I stood up. Took a photo of the writing desk
where I had written no words all day.
Red journal, coffee cup, plate of pears.
Then I took a photo of a painting on the wall,
a lupine meadow, it was--fuchsias, pinks, indigo--
and then I took a photo of the woodcut of
two crows and Why? I wondered
when I could've stepped outside
for photos of real lupine and real crows
or I could've left the camera behind
and picked up lupine pods and a crow feather.
Maybe even found a whole silky wing. But no.
I turned back to the chair with its deep well
where nobody was sitting now, the shawl
still resting on the arms. Yes.
I took a picture of that empty chair.

Messing Around in Boats
In or out of 'em, it doesn't matter. Nothing seems really to matter, that's the charm of it. Whether you get away, or whether you don't; whether you arrive at your destination or whether you reach somewhere else, or whether you never get anywhere at all...
Sometimes our mother read to us on the couch before bed, even though we were so many different ages. What I liked about the couch was leaning against Lloyd with my arm behind him, leaning into our mother to see the pictures closest up after the little kids started playing on the rug. My brother would beg for Wind in the Willows -- the ins and outs of river life, Mole, Ratty, Badger, and Mr. Toad, all simply messing around in boats. I imagined being Mole and having a cozy home under the roots by the water; my brother liked to see all the boats--punts, houseboats, the riverboat drawn by a horse and so forth--going every which way. He was waiting for the Mad Mr. Toad to leap into a vehicle of any sort and when he did, like when he got on the riverboat disguised as a washer woman, my brother exhaled with a half cry of glee. Since he didn't talk much, his cry of glee was all the more impressive. Another picture showed a red and brown caravan tipping precariously half way into the ditch, into which it did indeed fall, the horse somehow flying free.
We were worried Mr. Toad might get hurt in that tumble. After all these years the fears and worries and colors come back in an instant. The picture that leaps to my mind most often is the picture of Mad Mr. Toad slowly knotting sheets together in the bedroom of his castle, Toad Hall, where his friends have imprisoned him to keep him out of trouble--so many injuries and speeding tickets. At last he has a long rope of sheets all tied together. He is clever, Mr. Toad. He knots one end to the leg of a bedstead and flings the other end out the tall stone window. Then he must crab his way up the sheet to the window and out! rappelling down oh so many gigantic stories to the ground! Look, look, cries my brother, he's heading for the road, he's heading for the river, he's getting away!
-- Kenneth Grahame, Wind in the Willows

MORE READERS' COMMENTS
Roseann Lloyd has made The Boy Who Slept Under the Stars "not only for those who exit suddenly, but also for those who mourn them." This new book recreates the movement of healing: first unspeakable grief, revealed in tight prose, then interrogation, investigation, a pursuit of the missing on a personal, local, and global scale, and finally expansive understanding, the poet's heart not only doubled, but tripled in the powerful final poems such as "Have Drum Will Journey."
Top of Page
As Roseann Lloyd lays out her story, we wish to take her hand and search for answers along with her. I found myself pouring over maps of both the wilderness and my own family, noting I.d paddled and hiked several of the nearby lakes, and ticking off my own stories of grief. As I read on, Roseann's poems were projected onto my own memories of portages, wildflowers, losses, and relationships. I alternated my empathy between Roseann and her brother. Like many, I'm familiar with the inevitable processing of sudden loss.
But as a solo wilderness traveler, I also routinely face the possibility of my dying in a remote place. It is a risk vs. reward agreement we quietly make with ourselves, one which, unfortunately, is much harder for those left behind to accept.
All of us who partake is such adventure, know the risk. It is not that we are reveling in the risks, in fact we go to great measure to mitigate them. But, we accept that our lives may end abruptly. If that should happen, I would hope those who love me would realize I have lived a life of extraordinary connections to the natural world, without which I would not have been whole. So, in reading Roseann's manuscript, I found myself wanting to tell her it's okay, that Lloyd lived a life he wanted, and likely died the way he would have wanted.
Top of Page
The poems in The Boy Who Slept Under the Stars: A Memoir in Poetry take us on a sister's unflinching exploration into her grief, her family's grief, for a brother lost in the wilderness. Roseann Lloyd brings us with her into the deep waters of being a sister. She eloquently expresses the past she shared with her brother. His absence breathes upon the present and evokes other disappearances, children missing in Iraq, Jacob Wetterling abducted, climbers lost on Everest, a college student drowned, Lorca's family fighting over his body.
She writes... Even though I.ve said, for two years now, I don't need his body/to do my mourning, I'm suddenly desperate/ to touch your arms, muscled and tan as you were.( After April, Pine Lake 2006)
Another poem counts the summers to trace the past (First Summers and the Last).
The powerful prose poem, Messing Around in Boats, shows us her mother reading Wind in the Willows. Look, look, cries my brother, he's heading for the road, he's heading for the river, he's getting away!
They are visceral poems. Full of verbal energy and rich patterns of sound, Lloyd's lines are allowed to breathe and they move about in always interesting forms.
I have never been so moved by a book of poetry.

Film Genre: A Comprehensive Introduction to the World of Movie Genres
Understanding Film Genre
Film genre is a categorization system that helps us classify and identify different types of movies based on their themes, styles, and narrative structures. It provides a way for filmmakers, critics, and audiences to communicate and discuss movies in a more meaningful and organized manner. Whether you’re a casual moviegoer or a devoted film enthusiast, having knowledge about different film genres can enhance your movie-watching experience, help you discover new films, and provide insights into the evolution of cinema.
The Evolution of Film Genre
Over the course of cinema history, film genres have undergone significant transformations and developments. The concept of film genre can be traced back to the early days of silent films when movies were categorized based on their content, such as Westerns, comedies, and dramas. However, it was in the golden age of Hollywood during the 1930s and 1940s that the classification of movies into genres gained prominence.
During this era, studios began to recognize the financial potential of catering to specific audience preferences. This led to the rise of iconic genres, such as film noir, musicals, screwball comedies, and war films. Genres like film noir explored the darker aspects of human nature, while musicals brought vibrant song and dance sequences to the screen. These genres captivated audiences and marked the beginning of a more sophisticated and nuanced approach to filmmaking.
As the decades rolled by, new film genres emerged and existing ones evolved. The 1950s saw the rise of science fiction and horror films, with iconic works like “Invasion of the Body Snatchers” and “Psycho” leaving a lasting impact on the genre. The 1960s and 1970s witnessed the emergence of independent filmmaking and the birth of new genres like the coming-of-age film and the road movie.
The 1980s and 1990s witnessed a shift in the film industry with the rise of blockbusters and the dominance of certain genres, such as action films, romantic comedies, and fantasy films. These decades also saw the advent of groundbreaking technologies, like CGI, resulting in the popularity of the science fiction and fantasy genres.
In recent years, the film industry has seen a resurgence of genre-blending and genre-revitalization. Filmmakers are experimenting with hybrid genres, combining elements from various genres to create fresh and innovative storytelling experiences. This includes films like “Get Out,” a horror film with social commentary, and “La La Land,” a romantic musical drama. These films challenge traditional genre boundaries and provide audiences with unique and thought-provoking narratives.
The continuous evolution of film genres reflects the ever-changing tastes, interests, and socio-cultural contexts in which movies are created and consumed. As the film industry moves forward, it is likely that new genres will emerge, while existing ones will continue to evolve and adapt to the demands of the audience.
The Importance of Film Genre Knowledge
Having a good understanding of film genres is essential for both filmmakers and film enthusiasts. For filmmakers, knowing and understanding different genres allows them to effectively communicate their artistic vision and connect with their intended audience. It helps them make informed decisions regarding the style, tone, and narrative structure of their films.
For film enthusiasts, knowledge about film genres enhances the overall movie-watching experience. It enables them to explore different genres, discover new films, and appreciate the subtleties and nuances of filmmaking. Moreover, understanding the historical context and evolution of film genres provides valuable insights into the cultural and social influences that shape the world of cinema.
By familiarizing yourself with film genres, you can broaden your cinematic horizons and appreciate the diverse range of stories and storytelling techniques that exist within the world of movies. So, whether you’re a fan of action-packed blockbusters, thought-provoking dramas, or heartwarming romantic comedies, there is a film genre out there waiting to captivate and entertain you.
In conclusion, film genre is an essential aspect of cinema that categorizes and classifies movies based on their themes, styles, and narrative structures. The evolution of film genres over time reflects the changing tastes and cultural contexts in which movies are created. Understanding film genres not only enhances the movie-watching experience but also provides valuable insights into the art of filmmaking. So, dive into the world of film genres and explore the vast tapestry of stories that cinema has to offer.

The Ultimate List Of Travel Books
Escape from the reality of being stuck at home within the pages of fiction (and a few astonishing true stories too). Here's our guide to the best travel and adventure books.
We might not be travelling far, or at all, at the moment. So as we eagerly await the right time to pack our bags and set off again, what could be better than a good travel book to fuel our appetite for adventure?
Take a break from reading the global headlines by reading one of these much-loved tales of travel and journeys worldwide instead:
The Hare with Amber Eyes by Edmund de Waal
This (actually) fascinating memoir follows a century-long journey of porcelain netsuke as they’re passed down from one generation to the next. De Waal becomes the fifth in line to inherit the collection of miniatures, and in doing so, he inherits an almighty family history. From Odessa to Paris, from Vienna to Tokyo, we follow the netsuke through moments of wonder and tragedy and back again with the turn of every page.
The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho
Originally published in Portuguese in 1988, The Alchemist is considered a classic within modern literature. As we follow the journey of a young shepherd from Andalusia to Egypt, we learn of what it means to follow our dreams… as well as a few other life lessons along the way.
The Elegance of the Hedgehog by Muriel Barbery
At first glance, Renée is a very stereotypical concierge of a fancy apartment block in Paris. But, thanks to the keen eye of young, precocious Paloma who lives in the same building, Renée's facade soon slips and what we soon discover is her love of arts, culture and philosophy. Translated from French, this is a heartwarming tale of friendship, loyalty and humanity – a lesson to never judge a book by its cover if ever there was one.
Shantaram by Gregory David Roberts
‘Gripping’ is a rather overused term when describing a book, but trust us when we say this one is. Based on a true story, Gregory Roberts is a convicted felon who escapes from an Australian prison and flees to India, landing up in Bombay. There, the reader is taken on his eight-year journey through the vibrant city, where he joins the mafia, learns Hindi and Marathi, sets up a charitable health clinic and somehow still finds the time to fall in love.
On The Road by Jack Kerouac
In the aftermath of the Second World War, a group of free-spirited friends set off on a road trip across the United States – San Francisco, Denver, New York and beyond. Based on Kerouac’s personal experiences, On The Road has become a literary representation of American counterculture, perfectly summed up by the book’s free form style.
A Field Guide to Getting Lost by Rebecca Solnit
Through this compilation of autobiographical essays, Rebecca Solnit takes us on a journey through life’s ups and downs, as well as everything in between. This is a voyage across the world as much as it’s a voyage through the time we spend in it – one to pick up when you’re feeling philosophical.
The Paris Wife by Paula McLain
Set against the backdrop of Jazz Age Paris, this fictional account of Ernest Hemingway and his wife, Hadley Richardson’s life together is a dazzling but devastating portrayal of love and aspiration. It captures Paris at the height of its glamour during the roaring twenties, or the Années Folées should we say?

Alone Time by Stephanie Rosenbloom
If you’re teetering on the edge of taking a solo trip, Alone Time will push you over it in one fell swoop. Exploring four seasons within four of the world’s most diverse cities – Istanbul, Paris, New York and Florence – Rosenbloom embraces our rich mix of cultures and philosophies. This is armchair travel at its best.
Despite being stuck at home, we're sure this list of the best travel books to read will take you on a journey to someplace else. And, who knows, they might even inspire you to start dreaming of your next trip? If they do, explore our global collection of homes here.

If you ask a bookworm about what she would like in her home? The immediate answer will be a home library. Having your own personal space where you can relax with all your favorite books is the top most home improvement priority for a book lover. Here are some unique library ideas for your home.
- In the midst of nature:
If your home has a beautiful surrounding then you must opt for a library with a view. That is really very simple. The only changes that you will have to make is having French windows in the library from where you can enjoy the lovely view. In the centre of the room you can have rotating book shelves where you can stack all your favorite books. Just pick a book and perch close to a French window and relax!
- The staircase library:
If you want to have a library which has ample seating area and also lots of books then this is very much possible. You need to have a two story arrangement in the room. On the second story you can have shelves which have your favorite books. You can then have a ladder arrangement to reach to the second story. Collect all your favorite books and come to the ground floor which has ample space where you can actually lie down and read the book.
- That cozy corner!
Now all of us may not be able to have a separate room which can be converted into a beautiful library. But there is still scope for having a library in your small cosy home. Just pick one big corner of your bedroom. Here you can have a huge panel where you can keep your books. Put a nice traditional rug on the floor. That’s it! Your little library is ready.
- Two in one!
You would like a single room to serve a dual purpose? Fine then how about combining a dining room with a library? Sounds weird? No it is not! It is actually a superb idea. You can have traditional shelves on the walls for the books. In the centre you can have a multipurpose table with chairs. You can use this for having dinner at night and on other times this will be a nice place where you can sit with a book and a hot cup of coffee.
- The entertainment zone:
You can have a wonderful entertainment zone in your home and the library can be a part of it. You can have shelves from the floor to the ceiling on one wall. You can have ladder to collect the books at the top. On another wall you can have a flat screen television with home theater. One corner can be dedicated to the little ones. You can stack their toys and create a playing area for your kids. Your library becomes the perfect place for an evening family get together.
Digital media and internet can never take the place books! Only a true book lover will know the importance of having a beautiful space called library.


Noble Families of Japan
Ali'i Charles Augustus Baker, Prince of Kaua'i, father of H.R.H. Prince Darrick, married Shinshi (Lady) Elaine Nagao, a descendent of noble Japanese clans that settled in Hawai'i in the latter part of the 19th century.
As a great grandson of H.E. Col. Robert Hoapili Baker, Prince of Kaua'i and a grandson of Ali'i Lot Kamehameha Lane, a nominated heir to King Kamehameha V, Ali'i Charles Augustus continued the tradition of the Baker ohana with a marriage between noble families. (Unfortunately, this tradition had been disregarded by many of his siblings, especially by the younger & junior ranked siblings.)
H.R.H. Prince Darrick’s mother Shinshi Elaine Nagao belonged to the Nagao clan of Japan. The Nagao clan are one of the 'Bando Hachi Heishi': the 'eight Taira clans of Kanto' (the Chiba, Kazusa, Miura, Doi, Chichibu, Oba, Kajiwara and Nagao clans). The Taira clan was one of the four most important Samurai clans in Japan.
The Nagao clan held the positions of Shugodai (vice-Governors) and Lords of Shirai, Aomi, Hachigata and Kasugayama castles.
Shinshi Elaine Nagao also descends from the Yasuda clan, established by Oe Hiromoto. The Yasuda clan was made responsible for the collection of duties during the Sengoku period. And to this day, the Yasuda are known as the ‘financial clan’ due to their success in the Banking world.
And so the marriage of Ali'i Charles Augustus and Shinshi Elaine Nagao brought together several noble families of the Asia Pacific region, a heritage which H.R.H. Prince Darrick is most proud of.

The Second World War interrupted and cut short the lives of millions of people around the world. The shockwaves of the conflict impacted on all parts of life and football was no exception, with hundreds of professionals being called up to fight and some making the ultimate sacrifice.
This series of articles looks at how the war affected the lives of footballers from all sides of the conflict:
Bernhard Trautmann is arguably the most famous World War Two veteran to play the beautiful game in England.
As a former German paratrooper his arrival at Manchester City in 1949 as their new goalkeeper proved controversial with fans.
He was born in Bremen in 1923, during a time of great political unrest in Germany, following the country’s defeat in The Great War.
Trautmann, who was affectionately known as "Bert" by his family, was an active child and took part in a variety of sports, including football, handball and dodgeball. He also won a host of local athletics titles.
In 1933, Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party rose to power in Germany and put the country on a war footing. Germany invaded Poland in 1939 and two years later Trautmann, who was working as an apprentice motor mechanic, enlisted in the German air force, the Luftwaffe.
Trautmann became a paratrooper and saw combat on both the Eastern and Western fronts during the war. During his time in the Ukraine, fighting the Red Army, he was awarded five medals, including the Iron Cross.
After the allied invasion at Normandy in 1944, Trautmann found himself repeatedly captured by the allies. He was caught by two American soldiers but escaped only to jump a fence and land at the feet of a British soldier who greeted him with “Hello Fritz, fancy a cup of tea?”
Trautmann was sent to a prisoner of war camp first in Cheshire and then in Ashton, Lancashire, were he stayed until 1948.
He refused repatriation on release and decided to stay in England, where he combined farming with playing football for St Helens Town.
Manchester City’s scouts soon spotted Trautmann and were impressed by his skills between the sticks. His excellent diving ability, which he learned during his paratrooper training, and his brave technique of diving at an attacker’s feet, were recognised as his key strengths.
In 1949 the German signed for the club, but was something of a hate figure for some sections of the fans, who were enraged that a German was now playing for their team.
But Trautmann soon won his critics over with a string of sensational performances, the most memorable coming in the 1956 FA Cup final when City beat Birmingham City 3-1 to win the trophy.
During the match, Trautmann dived at the feet of Peter Murphy and broke his neck, but got up and played the rest of game, in obvious discomfort but not knowing the severity of the injury.
He made a full recovery and went on to record over 500 appearances for club, also winning the Footballer of the Year award in 1956 and being awarded an OBE by the Queen in 2004.
Bert Trautmann is symbolic of everything that is good about the game of football. The sport is a unifier of people; even those who are considered enemies can find common ground on the pitch. His enigmatic performances helped people overcome their prejudices and, in a small way, he helped heal the rifts between England and Germany following the war.


Welcome! This is the second podcast of "Connecting The Testaments," a podcast that is a quest to think and act more like Jesus.
We are building and continuing our quest to answer the question, "What was Jesus' worldview?" (part2). In conversational style and deep probing discussion, we explore questions like: What does it mean to have a biblical perspective? Is perspective and worldview synonymous or are they different? Does our experiencing and perspectives shape how we read and interpret scripture? What was the context and culture that Jesus lived in? How did he interact with his own culture? How did this shape his worldview? Did this affect how he taught? What was the expectations and perspectives of the early believers? How did their culture influence their approach to scripture and their orthopraxy (the doing of their faith)?
You will be challenged to take a look at your own perspective and how your experiences have shaped how your approach to the scriptures. So journey with us in this podcast to dive deep into Jesus' world, his culture, his perspectives, and worldview. You will be pleasantly surprised.
Here are some resources that we have referenced in our last two podcasts that are worth checking out:
* "Taken Out of Context." This is four session online course that will help you explore the Second Temple Period, the Jewish sects in Jesus world, other extras biblical sources that shaped their world (i.e. Book of Enoch, etc...), and the overall culture that shaped Jesus' worldview.
* "Behold The Man: Discovering Our Hebrew Lord - The Historical Jesus of Nazareth." This is a twelve session course that takes a deep dive into the world of Jesus, the Hebraic culture of his day, the Jewish expectations of the Messiah, the importance of the Hebrew language, the Rabbinic methods of discipleship, etc... This is a must resource for those who are looking to be challenged to grow in their knowledge and perspective of who Jesus was and how he really lived.


Philip Pullman’s swearwords are a useful lesson for children
His children’s book La Belle Sauvage has scandalised some with its use of bad language. But learning how and when to curse will enrich young readers’ lives
“Philip Pullman Litters New Children’s Book With Swear Words.” So ran the Daily Mail’s headline introducing pearl-clutching coverage of his bad language in the newly published La Belle Sauvage. Its 500 words of faux outrage (fauxtrage?) over a novel containing the words “bollocks”, “bastards” and “fuck” began with with the stunning news that: “By his own admission, some of [his] fans are as young as seven”, seemingly inviting us to imagine some poor, innocent cherub asking: “Mummy, what is bollocks?”
What’s bollocks is the idea that a seven-year-old doesn’t have a firm grip on at least the rudiments of bad language. This degree of manufactured ire is comical to anyone familiar with the latest research about children and their swearing habits. The vast majority of kids know (and use) taboo language fluently by the time they leave nursery.

This is one of the worst books I've ever read. People eating croissants and calling on the police in ancient Egypt is bad enough, but the black and white portrayal of the characters and the stilted writing though that may have been bad translation, I dunno killed the book completely.
View all 9 comments. Feb 14, God's Eye rated it it was amazing Shelves: historical-fiction-is-my-weakness , ancient-history-my-love. I was in middle school when i bought this book and read it in the same day.
In fact, i read the entire collection that day from early morning to late evening, 12 hours of nonstop reading and i didn't regret one second of it.
It was a miracle that they translated it into Romanian, because honestly speaking, i don't get on well with French and French doesn't get on well with me.
I haven't reread this book since then, but to my year old brain, this book and the others from the Ramses Series I was in middle school when i bought this book and read it in the same day.
I haven't reread this book since then, but to my year old brain, this book and the others from the Ramses Series was a masterpiece.
The original name of the book, The Fundamentals of the Course of the Stars , was discovered by Alexandra von Lieven in one of the manuscript fragments and published in There are nine different copies of the book and they have various dates.
Three copies are found on monuments and six more are found in the papyri of the second century AD found in the temple library in ancient Tebtunis , a town in the southern Faiyum Oasis.
These include texts both in hieratic and demotic; some parts are written in hieroglyphs as well. These monumental copies are written in hieroglyphs.
Currently, the Tebtunis textual material is scattered all over the world due to its complex excavation and acquisition history.

16:3825 Books That Predicted The Future And Were Right
People love predictions, especially when they come true (that is, of course if the predictions are for good). Though predictions are normally associated with mediums and divination, there are other sources. Writers for example.
Throughout history some of the boldest predictions ever made have come from the pages of authors who were eager to tell their stories to the world. While some of these predictions are more impressive than others, these authors nonetheless managed to have a strong sense of the future. From waterbeds to the internet, these are 25 books that predicted the future and were right!
In his book Gulliver’s Travels (1735), Jonathan Swift writes that Mars has two moons. 142 years later in 1872 we discovered that Mars does in fact have two moons.
In 1865 when Jules Verne wrote From The Earth To The Moon he included the idea of solar sails. 145 years later, in 2010, the first solar sail (IKAROS) was successfully used.
5 years after he wrote From The Earth To The Moon Jules Verne wrote 20,000 Leagues Under The Sea (1870). In this book he writes about the exploits of an electric powered submarine. 90 years later, in the 1960s, electric powered submarines were put into service.
When Edward Bellamy wrote Looking Backwards in 1888 he predicted the use of credit cards. 62 years later, in 1950, they were invented.
Jules Verne’s book In The Year 2889 (1889) includes the concept of planes writing messages in the sky (skywriting). 26 years later, in 1915, this was done for the first time at an airshow in San Francisco.

To Recap the Historical Narrative of that first Easter Weekend, it was on Good Friday evening that a wealthy Jewish Disciple of Jesus named Joseph of Arimathea along with Nicodemus, a Pharisee and member of the Jewish Sanhedrin wrapped Jesus’ lifeless body in clean linen and laid him in his own new tomb which he had cut in the rock and rolled a giant stone down a slope to cover the tomb’s entrance. Mary Magdalene and the other Mary sat and watched with great emotion. Later several Roman soldiers would be posted to lock down and seal the tomb to prevent body theft and resurrection fraud.
As the sun rises on that first Easter Morning, the women emerge from the darkest 30 hours they have ever experienced, an empty void, a Black Sabbath. The gospel writers give us few details about the day between Good Friday Sunset and Easter Sunday Sunrise it is just empty space and dead air. After a Good Friday of despair, darkness, defeat and hopelessness and before an Easter Sunday of joy, light, victory and hope, the women and the disciples endured the longest day of their lives. A day of stark emptiness. A day of dead intermission between the Crucifixion and the Resurrection of Jesus Christ when His body lays in the tomb. A parenthesis when they reflect on reflect on their cowardice, their denials, and their desperate flights in fear.
For the disciples it would be a dark season of emptiness, wondering what would become of them as they hid from the authorities. The women, not feeling the same guilt as the apostles, would still feel empty, lonely, grieved and without hope. They would spend the better part of these two nights laying on their beds soaking their pillows with tears. And so the story continues in Matthew’s Gospel, “Now after the (Black) Sabbath, toward the dawn of the first day of the week Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to see the tomb.” And what they would find was completely unexpected…
One thought on “Easter Sunday emerged from Black Sabbath”
