Dice Ad Error
By Deane Barker on November 9, 2006
We've talked about Dice's cool ads before, but in this one, I found
two syntax errors (assuming this is classic ASP and not ASP.Net — is that a fair assumption?). Anyone else see them?
[See the comments. I was totally wrong.]

Snapchat has today announced a surprise partnership with Square that will allow users of the photo app to send payments to one another.
In a blog post, the company said that the new feature, dubbed 'Snapcash,' allows users to send cash directly to friend's bank accounts using Square.
Once you've added your debit card to the app all you need to do to send cash is swipe into chat, type in the amount you want to send and click the green button.
The company says it built initially built a prototype of Snapcash and sent it to Square, who loved it and wanted to build the new feature together.
Just last month, over 100,000 photos were leaked from the service when a third party client was compromised. Snapchat, however, pointed out that it knows "security is essential" and that "Square has a lot of experience in this area."
Snapchat also updated its privacy policy today to allow for Snapcash, along with refreshing some of the terms.
Snapcash requires the user to live in the US and be over 18 years old in order to use Snapcash.

Please note; I have never watched Digimon and thus have only the slightest idea at all about any of the characters or their settings. Thus. Expect stupidity.
First off;
"This gets Davis' rival of another noodle-co sneaky ideas of how to sieze control."
...The fuck is a noodle-co? I honestly have zero idea what that is or what it's supposed to be or anything. It it like some sort of pool noodle teammate? Is it made of impact foam? Does it float? How does a rival fit into it?
I may find out soon. God help me.
It opens with a wedding between Kari and TK. Okay. Is "TK" some name for Davis or something?
Nope. Turns out Davis never made it. Did he get stuck in the Digital World? Obviously the answer is easy to see with a bit of extrapolation - it's said right in the opener, Davis is dead. Only he's not. Because we can rebuild him. We have the technology.
But we don't have the money, so we won't yet. Instead, thinly veiled foreshadowing!
A bit of filler, nothing really remarkable, still no outward signs he's dead, so Schroedinger's Davis is in full effect.
So there's this other couple named Yolei and Ken who are also married. I'mma guess they also be main characters, but how're they gonna factor in? One of them his rival?
Okay. So Davis isn't actually dead, it just turns out that he's like the King of Burgers right now. Well, king of noodle-carts, but apparently it's gone worldwide and now sells things in stores, so I guess good on him maybe.
"she secretly had a feeling Yolei and Ken were hiding something"
In the words of the wise Torgue Flexington, "IS IT JUST ME OR DOES IT SEEM LIKE HE'S GONNA BETRAY THE F*CK OUTTA YOU?" Not sure if it'll be Yolei or Ken but I am calling this.
So yeah Davis is alive it turns out. He's still a dead man walking, because the Tarot cards said so. Anyways, he's got nothing to do, and no reason to be at the wedding. And he's in a bar. Drinking. GEE I WONDER WHY HE'S THERE OR HOW HE'S GOING TO DIE.
He's also got a buddy called Veemon, guessing that's probably his Digimon. Because "mon".
So Davis is still in love with Kari. Even though Kari and TK are married. Okay I can at least get that, but considering this is a punishment fic (as ascribed on the cover) welcome to Red Flag.
And who the hell knows it turns out Yolei and Ken know about him. Whodathunk. But hey, it's yet to be seen whether or not they're gonna "BETRAY THE F*CK OUTTA YOU" so we'll need to keep watch. Leaning towards a "yes", though.
Davis stays in the bar all night and gets so shitfaced he starts to hallucinate. Dude, if you're so drunk that Ellie looks like she's got Moxxi's curves, you need to go to the hospital, because alcohol poisoning is a serious deal.
Aaaaaaand here comes our little Test of Faith and her name is unknown. She's pretty, and sober. Davis is drunk. This can only end well. She introduces herself and Davis acts like your typical rough-and-tough no-nonsense hero with a DRAK AND TARUBLED PASHT.
She openly asks for sex and Davis responds with screaming. Which gets the attention of everyone in the bar. Apparently Veemon knows that feel bro because for some reason he liked Gatomon, who is with Patamon. Probably gonna go ahead and guess that Gatomon is Kari's and Patamon is TK's. Because really.
It's only now that I look up and see the chapter name is 'Drunken Depressed Davis'. One point for alliteration and that's all you get.
Upon smacking Davis with a big, fat dose of reality, Davis parries the hit with his gut and promptly vomits. The bartender, because bartenders always draw the line at vomit, kicks Davis out of the bar. He's dead in a minute, I can tell.
It takes Davis two minutes to get to the door. He is that drunk. How is he not dead yet?
He promptly falls to his knees and starts puking all over the road, like that one scene from Team America where the protag vomits more puke than I'm fairly sure he has blood in his body. Veemon stays back because Davis is obviously a crock'a'shit he isn't touching with a ten foot pole, and then there's a sudden rumbling sound.
It's a car. It's headed for Davis.
The driver, obviously, slams on the brakes, but there isn't much room, so Davis is going to get a face full of bumper. That doesn't particularly seem lethal, but he's also likely gonna get ran over, so-
WHAT IN the...
...alright. So. Davis got hit by the car, so fucking hard, that the engine decided now was a good time to fufill its dream of becoming a Paveway smart bomb. Its imitation was evidently spot-on.
And by that I mean "the engine exploded". Davis and the driver are unconscious, having somehow survived... nope, not breathing. Dammit Veemon, haven't you heard of cardiopulmonary resuscitation?
Taking a dip into the author's note, he apologizes for the GRIMDARK but says he warned us. He did. He promptly expresses disbelief that he has to pair one character up with another, ending with, quote unquote, "I really hate that dude".
...Is this what it's like to be looking at one side of a ship war? Because if it is, I'm scared.
Okay. The only damage I've suffered is damage to the mind, and my mind got blown.
So. Combustion engines spontaneously detonated, two characters got married, and some dude died. Thus the prologue for Cyborg Davis ends.
Dear lord, this thing is how many chapters?

As the exuberance around the recent rankings conferred on India by the World Bank and Moody's just about begins to alleviate, the country gets yet another reason to celebrate, with its global containerized import-export recording its highest growth in the past year, at a strong 10% in Q3 of 2017.
Mirroring this overall increase, imports and exports have also clocked growth at the same rate, outperforming industry expectations.
With a lot to cheer about already, India's GDP too has taken an upward turn once again, indicating that the impact of major reforms such as demonetization and GST are finally stabilizing, and the business environment is expected to improve further once concerns around GST refunds are addressed.
These upticks are in turn expected to once more push up consumer spending, further propelling India's trade prospects in the months to come; more so against the backdrop of recent announcements by the government on awarding the infrastructure status to India's logistics Industry and setting up a special cell to promote India's exports to the world.
According to Steve Felder, Managing Director, Maersk Line – India, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Nepal, Bhutan and Maldives, "the growth we have seen this quarter reflects the resilience of India's global trade environment. Not only is India repeatedly outpacing the global growth average, but it is also one of the strongest global import-export partners amongst the BRICS nations."
He adds, "As local businesses supported by bold government reforms continue to benefit from the improving atmosphere, we expect India's growth to only further boost its position in global trade and competitiveness. To that end, we in Maersk Line are fully equipped to support the trajectory of India's trade, with end-to-end services to offer customers value at every step in the logistics value chain, right from financing cargo to secure store-door delivery in almost any corner of the world. We are committed to continuing to invest in further enhancing our capabilities in this area."
A close look at data related to India's import-export trade with close to 200 countries across the globe reveals some interesting insights.
In Q3 2017, exports to Mediterranean led India's overall exports growth, registering a 14% increase; whereas exports to North America grew at 8%; indicating India's strengthening trade ties with these regions.
Amongst the Mediterranean countries, Turkey emerged as India's largest export trading partner in terms of overall volumes, due to growing demand for textiles from the northern states of India, as well as vehicles and metal from the western region of the country.
Exports to Algeria, on the other hand, showed the highest jump at 28% growth in Q3 2017, up from 12% growth in the corresponding period of last year.
Additionally, appliances and kitchenware exports to UAE gained significant steam, going from a negative growth of -44% in the corresponding period of last year to a 38% growth in Q3 2017. Demand for India-made appliances and kitchenware also saw a significant growth from Saudi Arabia, moving from -20% to 8% in Q3 2017.
Offering greater insight into India's trade with the Mediterranean, Felder commented, "The growth in exports to Mediterranean countries has mainly come for East-Mediterranean. And this is owing to the political stability that is finally settling in Turkey, where we saw a lot of disruptions in the first half of this year."
Congratulating India on successfully diversifying its trade basket, Steve added, "One of the key success factors to India's global trade growth is that India has successfully forged trade relationships with multiple geographies and in multiple commodities. By doing this, we have not only ventured into newer markets, but have also balanced out the opportunities and challenges that come to us in the form of peaks and troughs each geography witnesses as a result of its own local dynamics."
Imports lose sheen in East India while other 3 regions propel ahead
India's imports advancement is mainly a result of western India showing a significant jump of 8%, as opposed to the negative import growth registered by the region in the corresponding period last year.
Additionally, north India and south India recorded 13% and 11% growth respectively, with their combined volumes substantially impacting overall growth.
These surges have been on the back of increased demand for a range of commodities:
Imports to east India, on the other hand, have shrunk by 3% from last years' 10% growth, with China emerging as east India's main trading partner, as the import of China-made products into the region grew by 35%. Imports of China-made products to western India has also grown significantly by 19%, led by electronic appliances, furniture, metals and paper.
Said Felder, "The growing middle class, coupled with developing industrialization, bodes well for imports into India going into 2018".
Changing preferences altering India's import patterns
As tensions between North and South Korea escalate, India's import of paper has switched from South Korea to the United States and Saudi Arabia. In the corresponding period of last year, paper imports from South Korea grew by a whopping 427%, which is now at a negative 22%.
On the contrary, import of paper from the United States and Saudi Arabia, which were in the negative last year, are now growing at a healthy 19% and 11% respectively.
Imports of reefer cargo too witnessed marked growth in Q3 2017, especially from Mediterranean countries moving from being in the negative in the corresponding period last year to 49% growth this year. Reefer cargo imports from the United States also grew, albeit at a much slower pace of 14% as compared to the robust 31% growth it registered in the corresponding period last year.
Some of the other significant import drops witnessed in Q3 2017 are:
A glance into 2018
In total, the import-export market in India has grown 7.7% in the first three quarters, in spite of myriad challenges. Given the evolving positive trends, we expect this growth to at least be maintained, and possibly grown further in 2018. Growth can be further sped up by the swift implementation of the various infrastructure projects, such as Sagarmala and Dedicated Freight Corridors.

What Parent's Say
We are very happy to send our daughter to your school. We have seen improvement in her overall knowledge. She has become very active and skilled over a period of time.
- M. Jeevitha's Parents.
Teachers and staff are very caring. The way of teaching is different from others schools. My daughter understood the concepts very clearly. They emphasize on good habits, good manners, celebrations of all festivals, etc. My child is well–prepared for her next class.
- P. Monisha's Parents.
We are extremely satisfied with the quality of training provided here. The learning process is fun - filled and interactive. This has enhanced my child's interest in learning. During the theme days, the child actually learns in a very practical manner. My daughter is more disciplined today. All the festivals are celebrated nicely. Thus the child learns not only about our culture but gains exposure to other cultures as well. Thank You Appleseed for developing my child so holistically.
- A.Amritha's parents.
We always had great confidence in the methods adopted by the Appleseed teachers for imparting education. They involve the children to participate and learn, by doing themselves. We could perceive the growth in our child who in just less than a month of joining Appleseed is able to confidently recite rhymes, read and understand numbers, letters, etc.
More than the academic part, we are happy to see our child growing organised and disciplined. He keeps the footwear in order the moment he reaches home and remembers to keep his bags and belongings in place after use. My child more often goes to school willingly without any hesitation or inhibitions. I am sure that with the help of Appleseed all children will come out with flying colours and will possess a good foundation for their future.
Like an apple, which made newton think and discover gravity, Appleseed will make all children think and discover themselves and indeed do great things as they grow and make the world a great place not just to live…..but also to live happily!
- S. A. Arvind's parents.

Great combination of ingredients! Unfortunately I found these very hard to swallow and they often got "stuck" at the back of my tongue which was very unpleasant. Also, there were a lot of broken tablets in my bottle.

The Book of What Remains
8:00 pm 4 April 2013
I read this cover to cover this morning. There is much to love in this book. The longer pieces have a wonderful momentum impossible to convey in an excerpt. I enjoyed the voice and sense of humor in these pieces and how the shorter meditations on living in the desert were interspersed throughout the collection. ". . . Alive is a place. Alive is the new word for home." "When a man takes out the wordshe has hidden in his heart for over fifty yearsand gives them to another-- that is called a miracle."After the Dying"Sometimes I think my tongue is a desert praying for rain."Meditation on Living in the Desert No. 17Longer pieces that stood out to me: Confessions: My Father, Hummingbirds, and Frantz FanonPrayer in the GardenAfter the DyingSin música no hay vida.

What We Carry (American Poets Continuum)
8:00 pm 20 February 2013
Tender, unflinching attention.Two of my favorites from this collection are Aphasia and Enough Music. Aphasiafor Honeya After the stroke all she could saywas Venezuela, pointing to the pitcherwith its bright blue rim, her one wordcommand. And when she drank the clearwater in and gave the glass back,it was Venezuela again, gratitude,maybe, or the word now simplya sigh, like the sky in the window,the pillows a cloudy definitionpropped beneath her head. Pink rosesdying on the bedside table, each fallenpetal a scrap in the shape of a countryshe'd never been to, had never onceexpressed interest in, and nowit was everywhere, in the peachshe lifted, dripping, to her lips,the white tissue in the box, her broodingchildren when they came to visit,baptized with their new name after each kiss. And at nightshe whispered it, dark narcoticin her husbands ear as he bentto listen, her hands fumblingat her buttons, her breasts,holding them up to the lightlike a gift. Venezuela, she said.Enough MusicSometimes, when we're on a long drive,and we've talked enough and listenedto enough music and stopped twice,once to eat, once to see the view,we fall into this rhythm of silence.It swings back and forth between uslike a rope over a lake.Maybe it's what we don't saythat saves us.
Facts About the Moon: Poems

If I typed all the poems and passages that resonated with me in this collection, I could find myself transcribing the entire book. Here is one excerpt: . . . I can heareach bird's separate song, the chirt and scree,the sip, sip, sip, the dwindle and the uplift yearning,the soup's on, soup's on, let up, let it goof each individual voice, and I know I am here,in this widening light, as we all are, with them,even the most damaged among us or lonelyor nearly dead, and that for each of us there issome small sound like an unseen bird ora red bike grinding along the gravel paththat could wake us, and take us home.

The Far Mosque
8:00 pm 2 February 2013
Why not be an acolyte of the twisting ribbon of river?Said: In the RainThese moments against the years you cannot believe.This hover of music winging down from the mountainsyou cannot believe.But here in the trees, here above the river, here as the seasonstitches itself into fog then frost, you will.Here as you unfold, unsummon, uncry, you will.

Rose (New Poets of America)
8:00 pm 14 November 2012
One of my favorite poems from this collection is Nocturne.". . . Tonight, something bowsthat should not bend. Something stiffens that should slide. Something, loose and not right, rakes or forges itself all night."
Book of My Nights: Poems (American Poets Continuum, 68)
8:00 pm 9 November 2012
One of my favorite poems from this collection is "Praise Them."The birds don't alter space.They reveal it . . . another favorite is "Pillow." There's nothing I can't find under there.Voices in the trees, the missing pagesof the sea.Everything but sleep.*Other excerpts I like:I draw a windowand a man sitting inside it.I draw a bird in flight above the lintel.That's my picture of thinking. "A Table in the Wilderness" Is it because the hour is late/the dove sounds new "Hurry Toward Beginning" It's a little like returning to the villagewhere you were born, the sad bewildermentof discrepancies betweenwhat you remember and what's there. "Discrepancies, Happy and Sad"The moon from any window is one partwhoever's looking. "The Moon from any Window"
My Name Is Gabito/Mi Llamo Gabito: The Life of Gabriel Garcia Marquez/La Vida De Gabriel Garcia Marquez (English, Multilingual and Spanish Edition)
8:00 pm 6 October 2012
It would be a better story with excerpts from Marquez's writing integrated into the text.
A Gate at the Stairs
8:00 pm 5 October 2012
Favorite excerpts:"I have always felt as hidden as the hull in a berry, as secret and fetal as the curled fortune in a cookie, and such hiddenness was not without its advantages, its egotisms, its grief-fed grandiosities." "I was all the parts: I was the lover on the platform, I was the lover on the train. And I was also the train."
Stolen Air: Selected Poems of Osip Mandelstam
8:00 pm 23 September 2012
This translation sings. Some of my favorite excerpts: "Frogs, all ooze and noise, bellvowelTheir bodies into a single aural oil." (Faith)"Better to live alluvial" (Steppes)"I might have learned to hearIn any random rotting logA tree release its rings year by slow year." (Steppes) "Blossoms rupture and rapture the air,All hover and hammer,Time intensified and time intolerable, sweetness raveling rot.It is now. It is not." (Sorrowdrawl)
The Book of Men: Poems
8:00 pm 15 June 2012
Mick Jagger: "he's a hybrid/ of stamina and slouch." Cher's "voice/ of gravel and clover." From Juneau, "the geography of the world outside my window/ was breaking and falling and changing shape. And I woke to it and looked at it and didn't speak."Roots - what a powerful poem. No excerpting from it; it needs to be read in its entirety.
Song of the Water Boatman and Other Pond Poems (Caldecott Honor Book, BCCB Blue Ribbon Nonfiction Book Award)
8:00 pm 29 May 2012
Beautifully illustrated. The inclusion of brief descriptive passages in contrast with the poems is very effective.
The Enemy
8:00 pm 27 May 2012
This would be more accessible for younger children if pared down and told exclusively in pictures. Too much "telling" gets tucked into the interior monologue of the soldier.

Yoga Education in Prisons Trust YEPT
Help bring regular yoga and meditation practice to prisoners all around NZ, reducing violence and stress and aiding rehabilitation
Help us teach freedom on the inside!
Currently a handful of yoga teachers work in NZ's prisons, mostly on a voluntary basis. Yet yoga is proven to be effective in prison settings, helping reduce violence and stress and support self-awareness and positive change. Help us bring more yoga into NZ's prisons, and use evaluation to build the case for ongoing government and philanthropic funding.
Organisation details:
The aim of YEPT is to provide education for prisoners and released prisoners and offenders in the practices and techniques of yoga and meditation with the purpose to enable personal transformation.
YEPT recognizes that the restrictive environment of a prison may be more conducive to internalisation and contemplation. Therefore it can be regarded as an opportunity to use the time-tested techniques and tools of yoga and meditation for personal growth and well-being.
A safe supportive environment is created by experienced teachers that allows the prisoners to let go of fears and inhibitions, explore aspects of themselves that can enhance social integration.

text: The art of practising art lawJuly 4, 2006|Written By Julius Melnitzer When Bonnie Czegledi was a teenager, she wanted to be an artist. But her parents, fearful that there was no living in it, would not allow her to paint. She painted anyway, hiding her work under her bed, away from the prying eyes of her mother and father.Bonnie Czegledi says, Never did she imagine that her adult world would also be a shadowy one. For in a tour de force of life planning, she not only fulfilled her parents' wishes by becoming a lawyer, she managed to live her own dream by becoming a cultural heritage lawyer ? a rare breed indeed. "The art world has traditionally been a very secretive one," Czegledi says. "Apart from the drug trade, the black market in art is the largest illicit trade in the world. It's a haven for both money laundering and terrorism."The illicit trade, worth $6 billion annually, has become known as "The Greatest Show You've Never Seen."Interpol's most wanted list of stolen art includes a Da Vinci valued at $65 million and a Renoir valued at $300,000. And the Art Loss Register in New York, which helps purchasers identify stolen works, lists 160,000 misappropriated items.All the while, Czegledi remains an artist herself, practising both her craft and her profession from an art gallery cum law office in Toronto's tony Yorkville district. On the legal side, she spends a great deal of her time dealing with art theft and tracking down the rightful owners of artworks lost to the Nazis during the second World War."I get a lot of referrals from other lawyers whose clients need legal advice about their collections," she says.At times, it's difficult to distinguish whether Czegledi's services fall on the legal or artistic side of her abilities."But it's no different from a business-law lawyer who employs both her business skills and her knowledge of the law in advising the client," she says. "It's the package the client is looking for."The package embraces a practice that includes provenance research, recovery of stolen art, trade law compliance for art and antiquities, taxation of art, relationships between artist and dealer, representation of galleries and museums, sales and gifting of collections and works, estate work for artists and collectors, and due diligence investigation for art purchasers.Preservation of intangible and tangible indigenous cultures and heritage sites is also an important aspect of this field, which involves extensive knowledge of international law. For example, Canada is a signatory to the UNESCO Convention on the Means of Prohibiting and Preventing the Illicit Import, Export, and Transfer of Ownership of Cultural Property, 1970. The enabling domestic legislation is The Cultural Property Import-Export Act.Czegledi is certainly on to something. Allegations that Iraqi museums and archeological sites in Afghanistan were looted and treasures destroyed without intervention from coalition forces has attracted the intention of international media to the realities of art theft."People have come to realize how our cultural heritage is the tangible embodiment of human past," Czegledi says. "When it is destroyed by armed conflict or economic despair, humanity loses some of its common heritage, and that cost of that kind of loss is incalculable."Canada, however, does almost nothing about art theft. Apart from two officers in Quebec, no Canadian jurisdiction has resources dedicated to combating it. Indeed, Canada is prominent on the Interpol list, which says stolen works by Chagall, Colville, Mir?, Rubens, and Warhol are located in this country.Czegledi is particularly upset that Canada and the United States allowed the Bilateral Agreement Concerning the Imposition of Import Restrictions on Certain Categories of Archeological and Ethnograph-ical Material to lapse in April 2002. That agreement helped stem illicit trafficking of cultural property ? such as First Nations and Inuit materials ? by providing a mechanism for the return of artifacts that entered the U.S. illegally.Czegledi believes that a new agreement should improve on the old one. The old treaty, for example, covered only material more than 250 years old, but the majority of items illegally traded are only 100 years old and older. She also believes the treaty should not be subject to renewal every five years and that it should be reciprocal."By establishing a new, improved treaty, Canadi-ans and Americans could set a powerful example for legislative responsibility in protecting the heritage of nations," Czegledi says.Aggravating the art theft problem is a general lack of public awareness."It is imperative that those entrusted with the responsibility to create laws to protect our cultural heritage attach some degree of shame to the illicit export of our own property as well as the looting of U.S. sites," says Czegledi.Czegledi is certainly doing her part. Apart from lobbying for a new agreement with the U.S., she is a prolific writer and lecturer on the subject of art law and art theft."Attitudes to illegal trade in cultural property are analogous to such social woes as domestic violence and drunk driving," she says. "It is the lack of pubic awareness or concern that contributes to its existence."

Organization Hosts Day of Pampering for Cancer Patients, Survivors and Caregivers
Dareise A. Jones | 4/13/2018, 6 a.m.
The Western High School graduate who earned a bachelor's degree in Anthropology with a Human Biology Concentration from Temple University and a master's degree in biology from Towson University says that she never imagined she would be in this place in her life at this time. When her mother was diagnosed with cancer, Merritt was traveling around the country conducting clinical research trials and considering a move to Texas. Her plans were put on hold as she helped with her mother's care. A few months after her mother passed away, she had the idea to start a foundation in her mother's memory to provide support for other families out there going through the same thing.
It was clear to see the joy on the faces of the participants after having their hair, make-up and nails done. One woman, currently undergoing treatment for Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma said being pampered was a blessing. She said she felt "elegant and special" and it was needed after having to stay in the house for a long period of time because of the risk of infection.
This was the goal for Jade and Mikey's Miracle Foundation, to uplift those battling cancer and show them that they are still beautiful despite what this disease does to their minds and bodies. A Beautiful Cause was full of love, hope, support and glam— essential elements for motivating those fighting cancer to continue doing so, with a reminder that they are not doing it alone.

Since 2003, social and emotional learning has been a legislative mandate in Illinois. The programs are implemented to a greater or lesser degree in each school based on interest and finances. My son's school is going at it like gangbusters.
Each week, my son and his fellow kindergartners, for instance, sit on the floor with their teacher and do exercises that help them to identify emotions (both others' and their own), solve conflicts and reduce frustration. They also learn not to be bystanders. They give a mean handshake.

Warren Ellis is a fleeting writer.
That's not to say he isn't good. He's great. As one of the most prolific comic book writers today, Ellis has managed to create great books over the years like Transmetropolitan and Planetary, always striking a cool balance between high-tech sci-fi tales and mysterious spy capers. The only issue is that recently, he never stays on a book very long.
Credit it to wanting to do different things to avoid getting stale, maybe, or just that he's done trying to tell long-form stories over dozens of issues. Whatever the case may be, it seems like he's never attached to a book longer than twelve issues, jumping off with little fanfare to debut a new series a few months later. With that in mind let's look at some of his more recent, and in some cases "current", books to determine what their status is.
-James Bond: When Dynamite Comics won the rights to publish new James Bond comics, they quickly signed Ellis to be the man to relaunch the comic book adventures of the world's greatest super-spy. Ellis' take brought Bond down from the suave silver-screen hero and returned him to the roots Ian Fleming planted in his novels. The result were two stories, "Vargr" and "Eidolon", that saw a grittier, more world-wear Bond who was more apt to snap someone's neck to save the day instead of pulling out a crazy gadget. A great book for not only fans of "classic" Bond stories, but also of Ellis' gripping spy tales.
Ellis' Bond is a perfect example as to the kind of skipping across books he has become known for. While both arcs didn't sell that great (credit either bad marketing or just the lack of resources on Dynamite's part), fans and reviewers seemed to take to Ellis' more grounded take on the character. Despite this, Ellis appears to be officially off the series, as Dynamite has been releasing other miniseries concurrent to the main book (including Andy Diggle's "Hammerhead") and is relaunching the main Bond book with writer Ben Percy this week. Would he come back? Unlikely, as he seems to have made his mark on the famed character.
STATUS – Relaunched
-The Wild Storm: Launched just two weeks ago, The Wild Storm is the latest imprint DC Comics has launched to appeal to a wide audience. Taking the fan-favorite characters from the WildStorm Universe and imagining them through a more grounded lens has gotten fans excited, with Ellis both writing the flagship book and acting as the "showrunner" to the entire imprint. The opening has shown Ellis, one of the biggest names to work on the original WildStorm books, building a brand new world around the characters he helped make famous. Anyone who hasn't read his WildStorm books, fear not, as this new series is totally accessible. A good place to jump on to see Ellis spin a brand new tale in real time.
This series seems to be on more solid footing, as it's been reported that Ellis has been signed to twenty-four issues of The Wild Storm per his contract with DC (which is echoed in the logo design, with the numbers one through twenty-four located just below the title). It's unlikely that Ellis will be writing any of the proposed spinoff books (which, as of this writing, have yet to be officially announced), but his involvement as showrunner should ensure that all of them follow the tone he sets down. It's unlikely he would stick around as a writer past the issues he's contracted for, but would he remain as showrunner is the real question. Only time will tell.
STATUS – Ongoing
-Injection: Perhaps Ellis' densest book going (which is saying something), Injection follows five proclaimed geniuses trying to fight against the very things they created so many years ago. Part X-Files, part Orphan Black, and a whole bunch of horror tossed in for good measure. This is quintessential Ellis, slowly doling out details for readers to process while also weaving a larger tale about the strangeness of the world and how the futuristic science fiction we've seen in movies might already be upon us. It's also Ellis' best-looking book (in my opinion), with Declan Shalvey drawing the madcap details of Ellis' scripts with a haunting beauty. If you're a fan of Ellis' work and want to really sink your teeth into a book that's as close to his classic works as you'll likely get, Injection is your cup of tea.
Injection comes to us from Image Comics, who aren't super keen on hitting proposed publishing dates (just look at the release dates of Southern Bastards). They don't take a large cut of their books' profits, instead simply helping to distribute and promote them, which is why so many big-name creators have gone there to have total storytelling freedom – but they also don't harangue the creators to keep their books moving along. Because of this many of their books often takes a few months off between arcs to avoid guest artists having to step in. While the quality of Injection remains high, the book has been released slowly since it's debut in May of 2015. But the book continues to plug along, with the twelfth (twelfth) issue solicited for release in April.
STATUS – (Sporadically) Ongoing
-Karnak: Ellis doesn't shy away from working with anyone, even the mega-machine that is Marvel. Instead of doing big-name, movie tie-in books that are heavily monitored by editors, Ellis has worked in the sandbox of re-imagining smaller characters. His latest work saw him take on the Inhuman Karnak, the guy with the goofy green costume that can "see the flaw in everything." While most writers took this to mean that he was a world-class fighter, Ellis looked at the idea in a wider sense – philosophies, technology, and structures were just as susceptible to his powers as the human body. Teaming with Agent Coulson to dig through a disturbing mystery, Ellis makes the character equal parts compelling and horrifying and brought his grounded writing to a character that couldn't be more fantastic. Fans of Marvel Comics should definitely check this series out.
Out of all the books Ellis has been working on over the past year, this one is the biggest trouble spot. The series suffered a four month delay after the first issue was released due to "serious personal issues" on the part of artist Gerardo Zaffino, followed by many other increasingly troubling delays with following issues. Issue six, the final chapter of Ellis' story arc "The Flaw in All Things", was released this month, and Ellis put out a statement before it's release saying that he was done with the series after the arc, similar to how he bowed out of his run on Moon Knight. With the upcoming trade being billed as a single collection instead of a "volume 1", it would seem that Marvel has put the proverbial nail in the coffin of Karnak and elected to not bring in a new creative team to continue the series.
STATUS – Cancelled
It's easy to get frustrated at Warren Ellis's lack of a long-term project over the past few years. In this age of seeing writers tell compelling, grandiose tales stretched over years on a single book, constantly seeing a writer of Ellis' caliber only work on short runs is a bummer. But when his collections are as good as they are, there's no real need for a long-term book by him. His quality of work speaks in how he can capture your imagination over the span of a handful of issues.
The books of Warren Ellis, including James Bond, The Wild Storm, Injection, and Karnak, are currently available in single issues at your local comic book shop. James Bond and Injection each have two collections available, with Karnak's collection due out March 1.

One of my biggest pet peeves is someone being late. So why I am constantly late getting my child to school, I have no idea.
I was never late when he was smaller. As soon as I was ready, I could get him ready, fed and then stick him in his car seat, pop the binky-plug in and be on my way.
Now, there's missing Bakugans and Hexbugs that he cannot step on the playground without, homework to be found, and an inevitable form that he remembered at the last minute that I have to sign.
I am smart enough to read thoroughly any form that my child thrusts in front of me, demanding a signature like I am reviewing a legal document.
I am not blaming Cole by any means.
I honestly think there is a rabbit hole similar to the one in "Alice in Wonderland" that creates some time-space continuum that makes the time from 7 a.m. and 7:30 a.m. fly by in a blink.
That 30 minute window has the voracious speed that Sunday goes by with when one dreads Monday.
And I am constantly like the White Rabbit, dashing around, watching the clock, exclaiming I am late, I am late, for a very important date!
How am I always late? I wake at 5 a.m., ease into the morning with my extra dark and extra strong coffee.
I get showered, throw curlers in my hair and have even dismissed the sacred rule of letting moisturizer set before I apply foundation.
I glance at the clock and realize it's 6:45 – time for Cole to wake.
This can take some cajoling.
The tactics of screaming for him to wake up do not work.
Luring him with the scent of cinnamon rolls baking however can help him emerge from the bed.
He gets his bath; I get his clothes ready.
It's amazing how laundry that was put away a few days before is now MIA.
And if you haven't matched socks, forget it.
That's a 10 minute search to find two that match.
By the time I have finally returned to finish getting ready, he's out of the tub and wanting breakfast.
I forget the important stuff like a glass of milk to go with the cinnamon roll. And did I mention I burned my fingers getting the cinnamon rolls out? Even SuperMom needs an oven mitt.
"Do we have any chocolate syrup to go in the milk?"
"Why not? You should never run out of chocolate syrup."
Point taken.
It's now 7:04 a.m. and if I had a bottle of chocolate syrup I would probably be main-lining it.
I trip over a dog as I try to go back to finish getting ready.
I apologize and out of guilt, find a dog biscuit for the critter.
I coat my lashes with mascara, poking myself in one eye, and rip the curlers from my hair.
I don't know what I am going to wear other than jeans and whichever blouse I can find.
I realize there's something I need in the bathroom but Lamar is already in there.
It's now 7:37 – where did those minutes go?
Did it really take me that long to do those few things?
"Time to go!"
I call for Cole who has wandered into the bedroom to watch a cartoon.
"Let me get my shoes on!" he says.
Followed by: "Mama, where's my shoes?"
"Probably wherever you left them!"
"I can't find them."
I have to locate two shoes.
One is usually nowhere near where the other one was.
I am still wearing my fuzzy green Angry Bird pig bedroom slippers and a pair of jeans and now my clean black shirt has dog hair on it because I had to get down on my hands and knees and dig under the couch looking for missing shoes.
On a positive note, I found the missing remote to the stereo.
It is now 7:45.
"We're late!"
I yell to no one in particular as I herd Cole to the car. "Mama, I gotta -"
"No, you don't. You gotta get in the car and we've gotta go."
"I need my bookbag!" he remembers as he buckles his seat belt in the back seat.
"I'll get it," I mutter.
I have forgotten my cell and have to go back in anyway.
"We are so late, we are always so late," I say under my breath.
"You sound like that character in 'Alice in Wonderland,'" Cole says from the back seat.
"I feel like that character in 'Alice in Wonderland,'" I say.
I pull out of the driveway and look at the clock.
It's now 7:52.
It takes me anywhere from 15 – 20 minutes to get to school, and that doesn't factor in the stray and random cows that may decide to leave pasture and hang out in the road.
Of course, I get behind some tractor that is on the road. He's going about 10 miles an hour on a no-pass zone, out for a leisurely little drive at 8 a.m.
By the time I get to school, I have created new cuss words in my head, had two episodes of road rage and need a venti breve latte with a shot of valium.
By the time we get inside the lobby, I smile sheepishly at the sweet ladies in the office.
They probably think I am terrible for always being late but they are always so understanding and kind.
Of course, if I ever get Cole there on time, they may announce it over the loudspeaker.
I sign the tardy sign in sheet.
When I get to reason, instead of putting 'late' like the other moms do, I put my variations of the truth: it's a day that ends in a 'y', it's Monday, couldn't find my panty girdle.
All things that happen.
All things that make me late.
I wave my goodbye, thankful that at least in this Wonderland, there's no Queen to behead me for being late.
I would have lost my head a long time ago.

Petchabun Governor Mr. Suebsak Iamwicharn carried the statue into the Pasak River as part of the bathing rite which took place at Wat ChanamanTemple.
The statue, also known among the local people as Phra Buddha Maha Dhamaracha, was brought to the temple on a traditional barge with a Himavanta animal figurehead specifically designed for this year's event.
The barge was among 24 others in the procession that traveled along the river from Wat Trai Bhumi Temple before arriving at Wat Chanaman Temple where the bathing ceremony was held. Many people on both embankments came to see the spectacle.
Phetchabun City Mayor Mr. Seksarn Niyompeng said today that the bathing ceremony is one of the biggest events that bring people from all over the country to Phetchabun. Up to 20 million baht is expected to be in circulation throughout the 10 day-event. Hotel bookings also rose by 80%.

A large-scale research project conducted by the National Eye Institute has shown that more than 13 million people in the U.S. suffer from macular degeneration, and about half of all Americans over the age of 80 have cataracts.
There are several nutrients that help protect our eyes and they're available in vegetables.
1. Carrots
Carrots are loaded with beta carotene, an antioxidant that helps reduce the risk of macular degeneration and cataracts.
2. Broccoli
Rich in vitamin C, a key antioxidant shown to specifically protect the eyes. Cook it well, as long as you don't overcook it.
3. Spinach
It provides vitamin C, beta carotene and large amounts of lutein and zeaxanthin. They are antioxidants that help to improve the tissue of the macula in our eyes.

Champions League in Freiburg's sober sights
Fürth - With victory at relegated Greuther Fürth having all but mathematically secured SC Freiburg a place in next season's UEFA Europa League, Christian Streich's men this weekend have the opportunity to crown an outstanding campaign by beating Schalke 04 at home to earn a tilt at the qualifying rounds of the Champions League.
Phenomenal rise
Asked, in the wake of the 2-1 win in Fürth, whether an exception would be made this time to the general no-alcohol rule on the team bus back to Freiburg, Streich slightly amended club chairman Fritz Keller's earlier response ("You know our coach"), saying, "You know our team." Besides which, "I don't have to forbid the players from doing anything, they don't take liberties anyway. They know there's more still to come."
Indeed. Victory over Schalke will see Freiburg defying the odds and joining FC Bayern Munich, Borussia Dortmund and Bayer 04 Leverkusen in rubbing shoulders with Europe's greats in the Champions League next season. "I can barely believe where we are," said Keller. "Especially when I think back to our situation 18 months ago."
In January 2012, when Streich almost reluctantly took over the reins from Marcus Sorg, Freiburg were anchored to the bottom of the Bundesliga, an insecure, error-prone team seemingly bound for the drop. But they turned things around in remarkable fashion and a year on, with a pretty much unchanged squad, have left the more high-profile likes of Hamburger SV, Hannover 96, Borussia Mönchengladbach and VfL Wolfsburg in their wake.
On the back of a largely ineffectual first half in which they were clearly the dominant side after going behind in the third minute, Freiburg upped a gear after the restart in Fürth with Jonathan Schmid (69') and Max Kruse (78') finding the net to secure an ultimately deserved win. The maximum haul still had to be salvaged at the death however by custodian Oliver Baumann, who denied Nikola Djurdjic from the penalty spot, although even Fürth coach Frank Kramer was not complaining about the result afterwards, acknowledging the visitors' "superior technique" over the 90 minutes.
Penalty killer
Lengthy passing sequences, reflected in a 66 per cent possession rate, underscored Baumann's analysis that Freiburg's "patience was rewarded," while the keeper himself garnered special praise from match-winner Kruse, who said, "Oli has earned us a lot of points this season and now he got his own reward by saving the penalty."
Baumann and Kruse subsequently stepped onto the team bus without an alcoholic beverage in sight. Streich knows his players well - and they are more than happy to keep the celebrations on ice for another week...

Alan (Editor)
- A unique set signed by Alan Davidson
Petits Propos Culinaires
Journals 1-73.
5 clamshell cases - each approx. 210x150x95mm. Each case in half bottle green morocco with green cloth covering. The spine with raised bands, gilt lines and a red morocco gilt lettered label. Each case with a light fawn felt cloth base. The cases are numbered; 1-15, 16-31, 32-48, 49-63, 64-73. Journal #1 is #345 of the first limited edition of 500. Numbers 1-59 and 61-63 are all signed by Alan Davidson. Number 60 is un-signed. Journals 63-73 are all signed by Tom Jaine. In journal #5, there is a letter of apology to Hugo Dunn-Meynell, for a printing mistake by A.D. in an article on Turabi Effendi. The letter is also signed by A.D. In journal #32 there is a page from Kidder's cookbook. In #49 there is a signed compliment slip signed by A.D, and two signed letters from Jenny Macarthur. All the journals as new. A very handsome set.
- Described by the editor Alan Davidson as 'a semi-academic periodical which comes out three times a year and deals with food, cookery and cookery books. Issues run approximately 64 to 72 pages, none occupied by advertisements, and contributors are a mixture of professional writers and amateurs. All issues are illustrated in black and white (reproductions of old engravings and woodcuts, etc.), plus drawings commissioned for PPC. PPC is not a collection of recipes, although most issues contain some of particular interest. These recipes have often been embodied in articles, e.g. by the late Elizabeth David and Richard Olney, both of whom played an important part in founding PPC. Extensive Book Reviews and an item called Notes and Queries are also regular features. The latter provides a forum for reports on research in progress and for posing questions which readers may be able to answer. This set on offer here are in a 'just published' condition. On the inside cover of journal # 1 is a typewritten note that has been tipped in. It states: "You may like to know that a new journal dealing with food, cookery and cookery books has been launched under the above title. The publishers are Prospect Books, a partnership including Elizabeth David, Alan and Jane Davidson, Jillian Norman and Richard Olney. The first edition was a limited edition of 500 copies, published in aid of the Anglo-American Jubilee Appeal of the Royal National Lifeboat Institution. ---- The first issue sold out quickly. The second issue will appear in August. It will also be in aid of charity". It is quite possible that this lot of journals are unique. A.D. told me he had not signed a full set before with the exception of number 60 which is unsigned. This is because the full printed lot of #60 were destroyed in a fire. I was only able to obtain a published copy after A.D. passed away. Number 63 has a written dedication from Alan Davidson. It reads: "I have great pleasure in signing this, the last issue of PPC for which I and my wife were responsible, -- for Robert Hendry, who has been such a good friend to the journal. Alan Davidson". Journals 73 and onwards have been edited & published by Tom Jaine of Prospect Books, Totnes, Devon and they are also signed by him. A wonderful source of all kinds of gastronomic information and research by many enthusiasts and leading culinary writers of the day.

Internally very clean. A handsome copy.
- A record of Richard de Swinefield's expenses as bishop that survived for the years 1289 and 1290. The accounts offer a rare glimpse of the organisation and expenses of a major household in the time period. During the 296 days covered by the record, his household moved 81 times, with 38 of these stops associated with him visiting his diocese during April through June. The record also shows that he supported two scholars at Oxford University The record has been printed a number of times, including by the Camden Society in 1853 through 1855. This copy was printed in 1854. Richard de Swinfield's last name may come from Swingfield located near Folkestone, Kent. His father was Stephen of Swinfield, who died in 1282, and his brother Stephen remained a layman. Other information about his family and upbringing is unknown, nor is his day or year of birth. He earned a doctor of divinity degree, but the location of his university studies is unknown. By 1264 Swinefield was a member of the household of Thomas de Cantilupe, who went on to become Bishop of Hereford in 1275. Swinefield held the prebend of Hampton in the diocese of Hereford, before 1279 and held that prebend until his election as bishop. Shortly after 17 April 1280 he was named Archdeacon of London, having previously held an unknown prebend in the diocese of London. Swinefield was elected to the see of Hereford, or bishopric, on 1 October 1282. The election was confirmed by John Peckham, the Archbishop of Canterbury on 31 December 1282, and Swinefield was given custody of the spiritualities and temporalities, or the ecclesiastical and lay income producing properties of the see by 8 January 1293. He was consecrated on 7 March 1283. During Swinefield's time as bishop, he was not involved in politics, and spent most of his time in his diocese. He rarely attended Parliament, usually excusing himself on the grounds of urgent diocesan business or his own bad health. He inherited a number of lawsuits from his predecessor, which he managed to settle. Swinefield also resolved a dispute over the boundary between the diocese of Hereford and the diocese of St Asaph, a Welsh bishopric, with the settlement being not entirely to the Welsh bishop's liking. The town of Hereford also had disagreements with Swinefield, and on one occasion the bishop threatened excommunication against the town unless they submitted. Swinefield was concerned to ensure that his clergy were well treated. He worked to ensure that churches within his diocese were not misappropriated through the granting of custody to unworthy candidates, as well as trying to keep order in the monasteries. His main efforts though went toward securing the canonization of his predecessor Thomas de Cantilupe. This did not however take place until 1320, after Swinefield's death. Swinefield died on 15 March 1317, and was buried in Hereford Cathedral, where a memorial in the transept's north wall shows Swinefield dressed as a bishop and holding a building. (See photo 1 below) Two of his nephews were given offices within the diocese, with John given the precentorship in Hereford Cathedral, and Gilbert made the chancellor there. Another possible relative was Richard Swinfield, who also held a prebend in the diocese.

Sir Kenelme
- A beautiful binding by Riviere
The CLOSET Of the Eminently Learned Sir Kenelme Digby Kt. Opened:
Whereby is DISCOVERED Several ways for making of Metheglin, Sider, Cherry-Wine, &c. TOGETHER WITH Excellent Directions FOR COOKERY As also for Preserving, Conserving, Candying, &c. Published by his Son's Consent. London, Prinetd by E.C. & A.C. For H. Browne, at the West-End of St. Pauls, 1671.
FIRST EDITION - 2ND ISSUE. Marbled endpapers with lovely elaborate gilt tooling. 2 fep. [1] Portrait frontispiece of Digby aged 62. Title page. [1] 2p 'To the Reader'. 1-251. 8p 'The Table'. [1]. 3fep. Marbled endpapers with lovely elaborate gilt tooling. Very handsome honey coloured polished calf by Bayntun (Riviere). French fillet frame on covers, raised bands, spine elaborately gilt in compartments with elegant central floral bouquet stamp, two crimson labels, intricately gilt turn-ins, marbled end papers, all edges gilt. From the Spokane Public Library, with the perforated and ink stamp on the 'To the Reader' leaf and with same accession number printed by hand on another page. The Frontis and title page have had expert repairs to page edges with no loss. Very slight hint of soiling here and there, but overall a very pleasing copy of a book not often found in agreeable condition. The binding completely tight and very handsome. A very scarce item, especially in this condition.
- The Frontispiece and Title page are slightly darker than the rest due to the book being on display at the Spokane Public Library for protracted periods of time. It also appears that the very good repairs carried out to those same page edges, (without loss) was due to paper brittleness accrued while on display. The first edition was printed in 1669. NUC locates an aggregate of nine copies of the two editions in seven libraries. Digby (1603-65) was a writer, navel commander, diplomat, scientist, philosopher, privateer, religious conversationalist, and more. In his book he devotes 89 pages to metheglin, which he also calls meath, a honey based brew to which various spices are added. From meath, Digby moves on to other liquids, including his own complicated 'aqua mirablis' recipe, the ingredients of which include cloves, spearmint, marigold and sack. Gradually the entries progress to more solid food, porridges and broths and end with meats and sweets. A few recipes include apples but there is singularly little talk of vegetables. The description of "how to fatten young chickens in a wonderful degree" gives one an insight into the Brobdingnagian zest of an aristocracy that had no misgivings about its place at the top of the food chain. Lit up by candles to ensure round-the-clock feeding, chicks were fed a pap of pulped raisins, bread and milk , to make them so fat that; "they will not be able to stand, but lie down upon their bellies to eat". Sir Kenelme Digby, who became as plump and rotund as one of his chickens, died on 1665. His first edition - first issue of 1669, was printed posthumously by his steward, George Hartman who used the recipes from Digby's papers. Hartman in turn, printed a book of Cookery in 1682 called 'The True Preserver'

- Rembert Dodoens, born Mechelen, Belgium on June 29, 1517, died in Leyden, Netherlands on March 10, 1585. He was a Flemish physician and botanist, also known under his Latinised name Rembertus Dodonaeus. In 1530 he started his studies of medicine, cosmography and geography at the University of Leuven, where he graduated in 1535, then establishing himself as a physician in Mechelen in 1538. He married Kathelijne De Bruyn(e) in 1539. From 1542-1546 he stayed in Basel. He turned down a chair at the University of Leuven in 1557, also turning down an offer to become court physician of emperor Philip II of Spain, instead choosing to became the court physician of the Austrian emperor Rudolph II in Vienna (1575-1578). He then became professor of medicine at the University of Leiden in 1582. Dodoens' great herbal Cruydeboeck, 1554, was influenced by the herbal of Leonhart Fuchs. He divided the plant kingdom in six groups. It treated in detail especially the medicinal herbs, which made this work, in the eyes of many, a pharmacopoeia. It was translated first into French in 1557 by Charles de L'Ecluse and called a Histoire des Plantes, and then into English (via L'Ecluse) in 1578 by Henry Lyte, and titled A Neiwe Herbal, or Historie of Plants. This first edition of the English translation was printed in folio at Antwerp, in order to secure the woodcuts of the original; the blocks being too heavy and valuable to transport. It has 779 pages mostly in black-letter and 870 woodcuts, about thirty of which are original. Lyte added very little original matter to the text. A second edition in square octavo and without any woodcuts, was printed in 1586 in London by Ninian Newton, and a third in 1595 by Edmund Bollifant in the same size. A folio edition also without woodcuts was published by Edward Griffin in 1619. In its time, it was the most translated book after the Bible. It became a work of worldwide renown, used as a reference book for two centuries. Dodoens's last book, Stirpium Historiae Pemptades Sex sive Libri XXX, 1583, was the Latin translation of his Cruydeboeck. It was used as a source by John Gerard for his Herball. The BL holds four copies; This first of 1578, other editions of 1586, 1595 and 1619. THOMAS CAMPION was born in London on February 12, 1567. He was a law student, a physician, a composer, a writer of masques and a poet. He went to Peterhouse College - Cambridge in 1581. In 1586 was admitted to Gray's Inn in London to study law. He participated in the Gray's Inn revels of 1588 and contributed songs to the Gesta Grayorum revels of 1594, but seems never to have been called to the bar. Campion's first poetic attempts were in Latin. His love of quantitative versification in classical Latin poems carried over into his English poems and songs. Campion was first published in 1591, when five of his songs appeared in Newman's unauthorized edition of Sidney's Astrophel and Stella. Four years later he published his own book, a collection of Latin epigrams, called Poemata (1595). Campion's reputation rests chiefly on his lyric poems, which are distinguished by their musical quality and charm. They were published 1601-1617 in four books of airs, beginning with A Booke of Ayres to be Sung to the Lute, Orpherian and Bass Viol (1601). Campion spent three years (1602-1605) on the Continent, and received the M.D. degree from the University of Caen in 1605. After returning to England, he practised as a doctor in London from 1606. During that time, he wrote several masques which were performed at the court of James I. Perhaps the best of them was the Lords' Masque (1613). In 1613 he also published A New Way of Making Fowre Parts in Counterpoint, a book on music theory. Campion died in London, probably of the plague, on March 1, 1620, and was buried at St. Dunstan's-in-the-West. Henry W. Poor whose bookplate is tipped into this book, was born in 1844, and was an American banker and publisher of 'Poors' Railway Manual'. He was also a famous wall street dealer, active in leather and ice securities garnering a fortune in excess of $5,000,000. He was a collector of fine art and had a library that was without equal anywhere in the country. He died in 1915.
