Books break the shackles of time. A book is proof that humans are capable of working magic.

Books break the shackles of time. A book is proof that humans are capable of working magic.
It [the Civil Rights Movement] didn't have an impact. I just kept going to school, doing what I was supposed to do, and stayed out of trouble.
Take a Stroll… With Rob Delaney - Help Save St. Mark's Bookshop
Earlier this week, a woman on Twitter wrote me and asked me to sign and retweet a petition to help save St. Mark's Bookshop in New York City's East Village. Their rent, to quote Jimmy McMillan, " is too damn high."
She also asked, "Didn't you and Julie Klausner meet there?" In fact we did meet there, in 1998. I was a senior at NYU living in a dorm across 9th St. from St. Mark's, where Julie worked. During one of my many visits to the store to browse, I decided to buy a collection of poetry by Wisława Szymborska called View with a Grain of Sand. I brought it up to the cash register and goddamn it; there was an extraordinarily foxy woman working it. Not working the cash register, I mean "working it." You feel me? Also, yes, she was operating the cash register. She had explosively red hair and dark brown eyes and porcelain skin and an outfit that I certainly can't remember because it was 13 years ago and I'm a man. But it was probably very cute.
I put the book in front of her and said, "Hello." (Right? I know…)
Then she said this: "Hi. You wear that sweater very well." WHAT? What does that even mean? I feel like that's one of the like, five acceptable ways from the 1940s for a proper lady to tell a gentleman that she's available for coffee and perhaps pie should it please the gentleman. Whatever it was, it remains one of the sexiest things that's ever been said to me. We continued to speak and the delicious-looking redheaded book merchant told me I should check out a comedy group called the "Upright Citizens Brigade" perform their improvised show "ASSSSCAT" later that night.
Then, rather than ask her for her rotary phone number, I paid for my little book of poetry and went to a park to read it, LIKE A REAL ASSHOLE.
That was something I was very conscious of as a kid, that moment where kids started being a little more self-conscious. You couldn't be so open about your love for nerdy things like comic books and superheroes any more, or playing Elfquest at recess. [Laughter] There was a shift, where it was suddenly like, people aren't doing that any more. They're playing basketball now.
There was a part of me that witnessed that and mourned it. Even though I fell into it, too; I started being more secretive about the fact that I played Dungeons and Dragons. You had to be careful, and I went out for the basketball team, and did things like that. But I remember being very mindful of it and realized that this is a trapping of adulthood, sublimating all these childhood imaginative pursuits for more adult things.
Sometimes you read a book so special that you want to carry it around with you for months after you've finished just to stay near it.

I was born inside the movie of my life. The visuals were before me, the audio surrounded me, the plot unfolded inevitably but not necessarily. I don't remember how I got into the movie, but it continues to entertain me.
This article literally made the girls in my office and me laugh aloud. This man is hysterical. One of my favorite quotes:
"There are words and phrases that you can't use in my store: like, oh my God, neat, sweet, have a good one, that's a good question, totally, whatever, perfect, Kindle or Amazon. These words give me brain damage. I'm serious."
The two most penetrating 20th C. thinkers concerning the function of the archive and the fragment were both born on July 15:
Jacques Derrida (July 15, 1930 - 2004), Jewish-French, Algerian-born philosopher and deconstructivist…
"I believe in the value of the book, which keeps something irreplaceable, and in the necessity of fighting to secure its respect."
— Jacques Derrida (Paper Machine)
Perhaps they were right putting love into books. Perhaps it could not live anywhere else.
Artists use frauds to make human beings seem more wonderful than they really are. Dancers show us human beings who move much more gracefully than human beings really move. Films and books and plays show us people talking much more entertainingly than people really talk, make paltry human enterprises seem more important. Singers and musicians show us human beings making sounds far more lovely than human beings really make. Architects give us temples in which something marvelous is obviously going on. Actually, practically nothing is going on.

Let her be bored. Let her have long afternoons with absolutely nothing to do. Limit her TV-watching time and her internet-playing time and take away her cell phone. Give her a whole summer of lazy mornings and dreamy afternoons. Make sure she has a library card and a comfy corner where she can curl up with a book.
Give her a notebook and five bucks so she can pick out a great pen. Insist she spend time with the family. It's even better if this time is spent in another state, a cabin in the woods, a cottage on the lake, far from her friends and people her own age. Give her some tedious chores to do. Make her mow the lawn, do the dishes by hand, paint the garage. Make her go on long walks with you and tell her you just want to listen to the sounds of the neighborhood.
— Make Your Kid A Writer (via Ta-Nehisi Coates)
Let her be lonely. Let her believe that no one in the world truly understands her. Give her the freedom to fall in love with the wrong person, to lose her heart, to have it smashed and abused and broken. Occasionally be too busy to listen, be distracted by other things, have your nose in a great book, be gone with your own friends. Let her have secrets

Student pays tuition with 230 pounds of coins
Devin DeFraine rolls in boxes of coins in protest after his university added a new fee for credit-card payments.
That's what one Canadian college student did recently, wheeling in boxes filled with 230 pounds of coins to protest a new fee at Mount Royal University. Devin DeFraine was so upset by the new fee, which reportedly amounts to an extra $57 for a five-course semester, that he decided to pay his entire $3,000 tuition in rolled-up dimes and nickels.
"If they're gonna nickel and dime us, I'll nickel and dime them," he told CBC News in this video.
In the past, the university picked up the fees of up to 1.89% for students paying tuition with a Visa or MasterCard, CBC reports. But now the school is passing on the fees to students. About 90% of the students at the university pay by credit card.
DeFraine got quite a workout wheeling in those coins. The protest obviously involved much more work on his part than the university's. Still, school officials had to contend with boxes filled with dimes and nickels, and DeFraine got a little bit of satisfaction that his statement was heard.
But Mount Royal University probably won't change its policies anytime soon. Sure, it's got some cranky students now, but it saves an estimated $500,000 by passing on the costs.
But please, students, don't look to the actions of Michael Lynch as any guide. The 47-year-old resident of Bellevue, Wash., was so angry about a traffic ticket in 2009 that he emptied $206 in coins into a plastic bag and poured urine on top, The Oregonian reported. He mailed it to the county courthouse, which promptly handed the package to a sheriff's sergeant. The sergeant mailed the package back.
More from Top Stocks
Let's see. When Visa was threatened (Durbin Amendment) with an interchange fee lowered to 12 cents from the 44 cents that they were charging, the stock dropped down to about $90 dollars. Visa cried foul, talked about how they won't make any money, gnashed their teeth and suggested that they might not even be able to survive.
Eventually they were told they can only charge 21 cents, less than half of what they were charging before, and now their stock is trading at over $148 dollars a share. I guess Wall Street didn't believe the same sob story that they were shoveling us.
The W.A.State Dept of Revenue says that mechants can charge a "fee" for credit card payments.
Most important is that the merchant pay the taxes from the total amount collected.
Im a store owner and the credit card fees exceed 3% per month. If you dont support small businesses and usually shop at Lowes and Home depot , dont worry about it but if you do support the small guy expect a fee when using a credit card.
I had a service business for twenty years. I accepted credit cards for about a year (the bank charged me 4%). They said the only way to get a better rate was to increase my volume. I cured the problem by refusing to take credit cards. When a customer wanted to pay by charge card, I sent them to the bank for a cash advance! It worked and without costing me a cent. I can't ever remember losing a customer because of it.
After my little local bank realized I did not accept cards any longer they offered me a 3% deal. I told them to stick their 3% where the sun does not shine. Instead of charging all people, merchants should offer discounts to those who pay cash. That way, only those who rely on them get zapped.
Don't count on this working very often. At least in the U.S., the requirement can be made that any roll(s) of coins presented for payment of a debt be stamped as rolled by a financial institution, with the institution's telco and address on each roll.
Have you priced a bank rolling your coins for you? This isn't quite like sending in to the IRA your Form 1040 printed in blood (not just unaccepted, now; also illegal). But it's getting there.
Whether you pay for it via line item or via slightly higher prices you're still paying for it. Running plastic isn't free and the merchant isn't footing the bill guaranteed. Even if state laws (like Oklahoma, for example) prohibit stations for charging a few pennies extra per gallon for credit purchases they are collecting the transaction fees by raising prices on other items in order to collect the difference.
He's only "nickel and diming" the poor cashier at his school...So wtg "making a point" by griefing the lady making slightly above minimum wage. Also this whole pay with coins thing is old, it's been done numerous times at banks/other establishments..
So he's an unoriginal jerk. I'm sure he'll be top management material whereever he decides to go after school is done.

Saint Patrick is said to have fasted for forty days on Croagh Patrick. It is from here that he is said to have banished a flock of evil black birds as well as the serpents of Ireland (a hollow to the north of the summit named Lugnademon commemorates this story). This explains its significance as a place of pilgrimage, though it was already sacred in pagan times, being a Lughnasa site [see MacNeill, 71-84]. Locally Croagh Patrick is called 'The Reek', a variant of the word 'rick' (i.e. a hayrick or haystack). 'Cruach' has the same meaning. In pagan times the mountain was known as Cruachán Aigle or Cruachán Garbrois. Garbros seems to be a place-name for the locality. Croagh Patrick is the highest mountain in the Croagh Patrick area and the 65th highest in Ireland.

The Reek from Ben Goram
a nice ridge walk away from the crowds
Short Summary created by CaptainVertigo, scapania
11 Jan 2014
The shortest and most well-known route up 'The Reek' starts from the large carpark in Murrisk (
(Point A)
), and needs no description. However, if you want a much quieter and more enjoyable route its infinitely better to come along the ridge from Ben Goram to the west. Coming from Westport, take the first left after Leckanvy, signposted for 'Sheeffry Valley Stables'. Follow this road for just over a kilometre, before turning left across open moorland. Park just after this road turns to the right at the base of the Ben Goram ridge, opposite a couple of new houses, on waste ground (
(Point B)
). See http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GJoP-RJXrYI
Walk back down the road, hop the fence and head up the steep slope to reach the ridge proper. Follow the ridge to the summit of Ben Goram, down to the col and along a gently rising ridge to the base of the scree covered cone of Croagh Patrick, where the slightly busier mining track comes in from the left. A well worn path leads up through the scree to quickly reach the summit and its chapel, toilets and hordes of pilgrims.

It was August 2003 and this was the first mountain we (my wife Vera and I (John)) did in the Emerald Isle ever. We took the traditional route starting at the car park & info center, luckaly it was past the time of the pelgrimage so although we where not alone, it was not crowded either. As it was a hot day and we did not know any better (yet) we where dressed only in a T shirt and while we climbed higher found the sweathers other folk where wearing somewhat strange as we where steaming in the August sunshine :-). The first piece of the climb was easy going and the reward when you look over the ridge coming up and get the splendid view over the other mountain tops behind it was overwhelming. After a quick meal we started on the second climb to the summit. This piece is a lot steeper and the path goes over loose rock so its important to look where you place your feet so not to slip away. Mind you it looks harder than it actualy is once your at it and very soon after, we where rewarded with being at our first mountain top. The view over Clew Bay with its countless little islands (no picture can do this justice) on one side and the mountains on the other is marvelous and recommendable. Only after some 10min up there it was obvious why the more experienced climbers/hill walkers wore sweaters or brought extra clothing with them... we where chilling down real fast by the icy winds up there, luckaly there was some shelter provided by the little St. Patrick church (witch was closed by the way). I've took some great Slides & Pictures and soon after we started to head down again same way as we came. Going down is a lot harder than going up, especialy the piece from the top to the ridge. All in all it was a great experience and something to repeat we both agreed on, so a few days later we went to Achill Island and Groaghein but more on that one later... The whole climb up & down took us about 4 hours and this includes the first rest to eat at the ridge and the time spend on top.

I climbed Croagh Patrick twice in the past few days - the first time (ever) on Friday and the second time on Reek Sunday, with thousands of pilgrims. I'm not used to climbing, nor am I fit. These things needn't put you off, though. The most important advice I can give is: take it at your own pace. Once that had clicked (in the first third of the climb), then it became very manageable and seriously enjoyable, even when exerting myself. Alaskan's summary is accurate - the first leg is exacting (more so on the way down), the saddle to the base of the summit is a good time to recover energy, and from there to the summit requires serious concentration. Things to remember: 1. Take sufficient (1-1.5 lts) water and some food (fruit, chocolate, Kendal Mint Cake, etc). You can fill your empty bottles in the mountain stream that runs alongside the path at the beginning of the ascent. 2. Wear appropriate footwear. I was amazed to see climbers in trainers or open toed sandals (I know some people do it barefooted, but that's a considered act of penance, not because they couldn't be bothered to buy a pair of boots). The final ascent to the summit over the loose scree is treacherous. 3. Dress for all weathers. Sunday was intermittently sunny and rainy. I arrived at the summit at 7.50 am, to see a magnificent double rainbow over Clew Bay. Within 20 minutes the weather had turned foul, with gale force winds and rain. Around me stood sorry folk in t-shirts. 4. Buy a stick. The tourist centre sells or rents out hazel sticks for a token sum. However much help they are going up, they're invaluable when coming down, which requires greater thought (tip - stick to the scree, and dig your heels in). One German climber kept falling on his descent and offered another climber 20 euros for her stick. Regrettably, she was on her way up, and had to decline... Most of all, take your time, especially if you're not used to it. They say it should take 2 hours to get to the top. I took 2.45 on the Friday, and 2.30 on the Sunday. No one was there to tell me off at the summit. It's a great walk/climb, with magnificent views. There's a great sense of solidarity from the other climbers, all of whom are ready to encourage you on (even stretching the truth when need be - 'just another 10 minutes', they say, when you've 30 minutes to go). And as I told a very healthy American family, who were approaching the base of the summit with some dismay, if I can do it, you can.

Mayo Mountain Rescue Team on Croagh Patrick - July 06
4 Sep 2008
Croagh Patrick is, by far, the most climbed mountain in Ireland; we would estimate that upwards of 250,000 people per annum climb the mountain. There are three possible approaches to the summit, the first via the pilgrim path from Murrisk. This is a well signposted path. The second is from the Mountain Rescue base at Taobhnacroibhe off the Leenane rd (Turn right at the sign for Knappagh). The third option is the least used of all three, approaching from the Lecanvy side, eventually joining the old mining track left over from the shameful gold prospecting efforts of the 1980's.
Being the most popular mountain in Ireland also means that "The Reek" is also the location for most activities carried out by Mayo Mountain Rescue team averaging 30+ rescues per annum. Considering that because of its popularity it attracts more inexperienced climbers than most other mountain in the country, the MMRT appeal to anyone considering climbing the mountain to follow a few basic guidelines:
1. Wear proper footwear, ideally something with good ankle support and sole grip.
2. Bring, as a minimum, a waterproof layer and some spare clothes
3. Bring something to drink (as a minimum a small bottle of water) and eat, ideally something like chocolate to provide energy.
4. Consider bringing a stick or walking pole, Sticks are available to rent or buy at Murrisk car park.
5. Leave notice with someone of your plan to climb and your expected time of return.
6. A mobile phone could be useful but a signal on the mountain is not guaranteed. A whistle or flashlight could prove even more useful in locating you if you get lost.
7. If you are feeling tired before reaching the saddle and you doubt your ability to reach the summit trust your instinct and don't be afraid to turn back
8. If you do get into difficulty and require assistance or encounter someone else requiring assistance dial 999/112 and ask for Mayo Mountain Rescue Team. Bear in mind however that expected time for arrival of the voluntary team, from time of raising the alarm, can be anything up to 3 hours depending on your location on the mountain, so that if a casualty is able to get themselves safely off the mountain in this time they would be advised to attempt to do so.
Croagh Patrick has a church and toilets located at the summit; the toilets are open all year round and provide basic shelter in severe conditions. The church is open daily from approx 10am to 3pm during July and August.
Some parts of the mountain are severely affected by erosion and all parts of the path are subject to considerable littering particularly from discarded bottles, sweet wrappers and clothing. MMRT would appeal to ALL climbers to adhere to the country side code, leave no trace, bring litter home and try to stick to the path to minimise further erosion on the mountain.
On behalf off all from MMRT we wish you a safe and enjoyable climb - For further info visit www.mayomrt.com

Climbed the Reek on a good day in july 04. Errosion is very bad on the right hand side of the path going up the last 200m. sticking to the scree doesnt make this steep part much more difficult and coming down offers somtimes more predictable footing than the sandy eroded area. Great views clew bay, north towards Achill and Nephin beg range and south towards the partry mountains, sheefery hills, mweelrea and connemara. Clare island looks like a big whale gaurding the entrance to clew bay.
The little church at the top provides a good shield from the strong winds. it was locked though

My apologies, I know it's a bit late for this here for Reek Sunday but this is the press release we sent out last week and it's applicable for climbing Croagh Patrick any time of the year.
Peter Jordan, PRO, Mayo Mountain Rescue Team.
"MMRT appeal to all intending pilgrims to Croagh Patrick to exercise a duty of care to themselves and others on the mountain and to demonstrate common sense in undertaking the climb.
In particular Mayo Mountain Rescue team would appeal to pilgrims to consider the following:
Croagh Patrick is a 764m (2510 ft) high mountain with the main path running from Murrisk to the summit, a 7km round trip. The final section of the path up is particularly difficult with a gradient of over 40 degrees compounded by much loose shale and stones.
If people are intent on doing the climb barefoot MMRT would suggest that as a minimum they at least bring a pair of shoes and a stick with them.
A stick or walking pole of some description is considered a valuable ally on the mountain.
Dress for the occasion: The temperature at the summit can vary as much as 5-10 deg cooler than at Murrisk. Conditions on the summit can change rapidly. Dress in multiple layers which can be added or removed as the progress dictates. Carry a waterproof outer layer. Some form of head gear is also recommended.
A stout pair of boots: Any footwear which are designed for moderate hill walking activities and which provide good ankle support are probably the best option, failing that a good pair of runners should get you through safely.
Food and Drink: As a minimum it is recommended that pilgrims bring a bottle of water and some small amount of food with them onto the mountain. Venturing onto the mountain with alcohol taken or drinking alcohol on the mountain is strongly advised against.
Leave No Trace: On the pilgrimage try to adopt the simple country side code, namely leave no trace and whatever you carry on carry off with you too.
The young ones: Make sure children are properly dressed and equipped with sticks of their own. If the children get tired and have to be carried, remember they can get cold very quickly on your back or shoulders.
Know your limits: When climbing do not push yourself to exhaustion. Pace yourself. If you feel yourself getting too hot or cold, add or remove layers as appropriate. If, on the ascent, less than half way up the mountain, you doubt your ability to make it, trust your judgment. It is no shame to turn around rather than risk an accident near the summit or on the descent brought on by exhaustion."

Should cursive writing be required in schools?
Only three state have made cursive a part of the core curriculum requirements while 45 states require proficiency in computer keyboarding at the elementry level. Some states have made cursive optional.
Has our society advanced to the point of where handwriting has become unnecessary.
What impacts can you see on not being able to write in cursive. Could printing be just as acceptable?

Dec 1 2012: I think it is difficult for us "older" folks to accept the changes in communication. The value of good penmanship was something that was important in our education process so we are reluctant to let it go.
Young people communicate faster and more efficiently than we ever did, shortened words, snap chat, instagram....We talked on the phone for hours, they text, email, facebook, surf the net and watch netflix all at the same time. There were many who thought the Radio, telephone, TV, and even the Typewriter were ridiculous inventions. All of those things changed the way we communicate and the "old" folks of that time were probably annoyed about it.
The nice thing about being a parent is that you can choose to educate your child the way you want them educated.
I think the physically written word will become a thing of the past in the not so distant future. I'll always keep a hand written journal, but my kids will do theirs with Dragon.
Dec 1 2012: Are we really just 'old' and only me still in denial, or are we a transitional generation which came to see both sides of the coin?
I was born in 1969 and at the right age when the digital revolution started to roll. I learned cursive writing AND to write my first program in BASIC. I played the video game Pong as enthusiastic as I played Diablo III just 37 years later. I operate notebooks in paper and digital, and I talk to my Dragon with the same patience as I do with my cat. Yet it takes hours of work to open a single file which I stored only 15 years ago, because I can not get the software to run on modern computers. Downward compatibility is a myth and digital storage devices are not lossless, they age over time as well. :o)
I have a period in my life on which I have no paper record. In which I did not print out this beautiful e-mail of a friend, in which I did not write my thoughts onto paper and didn't print the pictures at a photo store. A single hard-drive failure wiped it all out. No backup, no data recovery possible at that time due to budget, drive dumped.
Who prints out a tweet today? Sms? Facebook comments or pictures? What will young generations hold in their hands while walking down memory lane in their late 80s? Will Twitter still be there, or Facebook? How do they keep their digital memories alive? In 'The Cloud'? Run by companies who may burst in the next 'bubble' together with all their storage hardware? Will they be able to read their Dragon memos or listen to voice recordings at a time where pdf and mp3 have become as exotic as wax cylinder recordings are today?
Personally I don't know anyone who keeps digital data up to date in formatting and compatibility. And the tricky part of 'good old times' is, that they appear later in life than we may think they will.
Kids run in their personal 'memento vacuum' and not knowing it. The old term 'Horror vacui' may get a new meaning in the future. On this I truly hope to be just old and wrong.

Jorge Lorenzo ended Dani Pedrosa's golden run in pre-season testing at the Sepang circuit in Malaysia today when the reigning world champion topped the timesheets in hot and humid conditions.
Repsol Honda rider Pedrosa had been fastest in all four days so far at Sepang. But on the second day of the second Malaysia test he had to give way to an impressively fast and consistent factory Yamaha rival Lorenzo.
Lorenzo's best of 2.00.282 put him 0.369s clear of Pedrosa, with grip levels vastly improved compared to yesterday's slippery conditions that allowed lap times to tumble.
Spaniard Lorenzo was 1.6s faster than his best time yesterday but it was his consistency that was the most eye-catching feature of his performance, with the double MotoGP world champion the only rider to lap consistently in the 2.00 bracket in his 58-laps on track.
Pedrosa took second by 0.256s from impressive British rider Cal Crutchlow, who moved up from sixth to third place today with a best lap of 2.00.907.
That was 1.3s faster than he managed on day one and it put the 27-year-old just 0.085s clear of Repsol Honda rookie Marc Marquez.
Italian Valentino Rossi was fifth for the second day in succession and a best time of 2.01.065 gave him plenty of food for thought after he finished 0.783s adrift of Lorenzo's blistering speed.
Alvaro Bautista completed the top six with British rookie Bradley Smith going some way to restoring his confidence after a first day crash to finish 10th again.
The Oxfordshire rider logged a best time of 2.02.023 to knock a massive 1.6s off his best time from yesterday.
Smith was less than 0.3s behind factory Ducati duo Nicky Hayden and Andrea Dovizioso.
It was a tough day for Texan Ben Spies, who is still trying to regain full strength in a right shoulder he badly injured in a crash during last October's Sepang MotoGP race.
The 2009 World Superbike champion was 17th today and a best time of 2.03.460 leaving him 3.178s off the pace.
Michael Laverty did finally to get out on the new PBM chassis today, but he only completed 19 laps as gremlins with the new standard Magneti Marelli electronics system seriously hindered his hopes of properly evaluating the British-built frame.
The Irishman finished with a best time of 2.07.721.

Pat Palmer and her family built Santa Land, located on I-20 at exit 557, fifteen years ago. They had seen a similar park in St Louis. When Santa Land opened in 1995 it became the first drive through Christmas Park in Texas, with others soon following.
Over three million lights illuminate toy soldiers, elves, angels, butterflies, footballs, oil wells and even tornadoes in the 24 acre light park. A lighted tunnel is a longtime favorite while nativity scenes remind us of the true meaning of Christmas.
Santa Land has been designed by the Palmer family for family Christmas time together. For many families, a visit to Santa Land has become an annual tradition. Although Santa Land is only open from November 1st through January 4th, keeping the park up and adding new displays is a year long job for the Palmer family.
Admission fees at Santa Land are $20 per car and $30 per commercial van.

Ezra Pound never made it easy. He was a poet who cared little about public success and not at all about money: he dedicated his life to art with the rapturous abandon of a bacchant. Pound saw himself as forging ahead on the path poets had pursued since the preclassical bards, toward deeper wisdom and a more perfect expression, in pursuit of the beautiful. In the years since his death, this perennial vision of an enlightened Republic of Letters, one of humankind's greatest intellectual accomplishments, has quietly gone the way of falconry and intaglio carving. So impenetrable and taxing do Pound's poems appear to most modern readers that the soaring ambition of his work has been eclipsed by the neatly plotted narrative of his life.
Everybody knows the story. Pound launched the Imagist movement, epitomized by that hardy perennial of poetry anthologies, "In a Station of the Metro" (in full: "The apparition of these faces in the crowd;/Petals on a wet, black bough"), and then played a decisive role in shaping T. S. Eliot's epochal masterpiece The Waste Land. He devoted the rest of his life to composing The Cantos, a vast, unreadable epic left unfinished at his death in 1972. The story ends badly: he went off the rails during the war years, embracing fascism and anti-Semitism in broadcasts for Mussolini that got him arrested for treason, and was eventually committed to a mental hospital.
As conventional wisdom goes, the standard skinny on Pound is no worse than most. True to the genre it lacks nuance, emphasizing controversy over substance, but it isn't actually wrong about anything—except the work. Pound's Imagist poetry was revolutionary but by no means the best even of his early compositions, and The Cantos are called unreadable by the same people who call Tristram Shandy and Ulysses unreadable, those who haven't read them. Many of the cantos are as deeply felt and exquisitely rendered as any verse in English. No poet has ever been so influential, so controversial, and so little read.
Born in Hailey, Idaho, and raised in suburban Philadelphia, Pound arrived in London in 1908 at the age of twenty-two with £3 in his pocket. Ford Madox Ford recorded this impression of the young genius in London: "Ezra would approach with the step of a dancer, making passes with a cane at an imaginary opponent. He would wear trousers made of green billiard cloth, a pink coat, a blue shirt, a tie handpainted by a Japanese friend, an immense sombrero, a flaming beard cut to a point, and a single, large blue earring."
Pound worked indefatigably to promote the work of other writers, sometimes to the neglect of his own career. Beside shepherding The Waste Land into print, he played an active role in launching and promoting the careers of nearly all the major modernist writers. He served Yeats, already an established poet, as an unpaid amanuensis and factotum, an intimacy he used to exert as profound an effect on the elder poet's mature style as he did on young Eliot. Pound arranged for the first publication of A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man in The Egoist; as an editor for the Three Mountains Press in Paris, he himself published Hemingway's second book, in our time; he raised the money for Ford Madox Ford to launch the Transatlantic Review. As the European correspondent for Poetry magazine, Harriet Monroe's landmark magazine published in Chicago, Pound got into print the early work of his college sweetheart Hilda Doolittle (H. D.), Robert Frost, D. H. Lawrence, William Carlos Williams, and many other writers who have since faded from notice.
'Ulysses and The Waste Land were instant classics, yet The Cantos have remained an outlier...'
Jamie James makes a good point by implication: we need a good Selections from the Cantos. (I confess to liking Cathay and the Propertius adaptation best of Pound.)

STEVENS POINT, WI (WTAQ) - After nine hours of deliberation, the trial of an accused social security fraudster was declared a mistrial on Friday.
72-year-old Ronald Disher, of Almond, was charged with felony fraud, forgery and theft charges. He was accused of cashing in 30-years-worth of social security checks belonging to Marie Jost, who was last seen in the 1980s.
The jury did find Disher guilty of misdemeanor disorderly conduct and endangering safety, related to alleged confrontations with a social security investigator.
The Portage County District Attorney's Office says they plan to seek a new trial.

Passing TonesPosted by Lawrence Dillon in Uncategorized
I've written a few times about my experience with the Seattle Chamber Music Society over the past year, but there is one more thing I would like to touch on — in many ways the most important of all.
In May, when I went to visit the SCMS commissioning club to talk about the piece I had written for them, I stayed at the home of seventy-one-year-old cellist Toby Saks. Toby founded SCMS about 30 years ago, so at my first opportunity (as it happened, over appetizers), I asked her how SCMS had come about, because I'm always curious about such things. She seemed very happy to share the story (which is, after all, pretty fascinating) and she gave me a mostly chronological narrative of the first 10-15 years of SCMS over the course of dinner and beyond. Listening to her story gave me wonderful insights into her character: passionate, uncompromising, courageous.
The next morning she asked if I would like to go on a stroll through a nearby park. I'm a big fan of getting a bit of fresh air, spending a half hour or so communing with nature, and so I took her up on it. This walk, much to my surprise, kept going and going. After two hours, during which we got lost several times, we returned to her home. It was noon, so I figured we were in for a well-deserved lunch after our exercise. Instead, she said, "Well, we may as well keep going, down to the waterfront, what do you say?" So I had another 90-minute hike ahead of me.
Indeed, I had nothing to complain about, for our conversation was lively and far-reaching, and when we finished our 3.5 hour "stroll," the talk continued into lunch. We talked about music, of course — her time as one of the first women in the NY Philharmonic, teaching music fundamentals (which she had been doing at the University of Washington for many years), chamber music playing, music administration – but we also moved on to broader topics: marriage, divorce, parenting, aging, literature, history, friends, human nature, animals.
Funny, I've been on longer hikes before, but I believe this was the longest, non-stop, one-on-one conversation I've ever engaged in.
One part of our chat that stuck with me was her account of the relationships she had formed through SCMS and, in particular, the times when she had to stop inviting musicians who were no longer playing well enough, which she regarded as a painful but necessary part of her role as Artistic Director. Then the time came when she had to acknowledge that she was no longer the cellist she wanted to be, and she accepted that change gracefully, moving exclusively into the administrative work of the society. After a few years, she decided she had had enough of that work, and she handed her baby over to James Ehnes, stepping aside into the role of local contact and host for visiting musicians. She averred (and James later confirmed this for me) that she gave him complete autonomy in the operation, never interfering with his vision, which is a remarkable thing to do with something you have given so much of your life to.
I left Seattle the next morning eager for my July return, so we could pick up where we left off. But when I got back, her lovely home, which had been a calm refuge on my previous visit, was a chaotic whirl — the SCMS summer season was in full swing, dozens of musicians grabbing meals and rehearsing in various rooms — so I just managed a few quick chats with her. While my piece was being rehearsed, she stretched out on the sofa in the music room and napped peacefully, which I found completely charming.
On July 8th, my piece was premiered downtown, but she wasn't able to make it because her son and grandson were flying in that evening from Europe. I returned home the next morning sad that we hadn't had more time to talk.
A few weeks later, I got the shocking news that Toby was terminally ill with pancreatic cancer, a diagnosis she had received just a few days before I had arrived for my performance. I found out that when she learned she was dying she wouldn't hear of altering any SCMS plans: the home she shared with her husband Marty Greene was still the epicenter of the festival, which ran as scheduled through July 26th. She died on August 1st.
The way she approached death was of a piece with the way she approached life. "Death has never scared me," she said to the Seattle Times shortly after I last saw her. "I've never been afraid of it."
In the days after she died, I found a wistful little tune looping through my mind, and I sketched out a brief canon for cello and violin. The relationship Toby had with life and death, with SCMS, with violinist James Ehnes – all of these things seemed to be converging in a few notes, in the lovely way music has of finding connections among our least articulate thoughts. When I finished it, though, I realized it was a bit more prosaic and linear than was appropriate: cello leads, violin follows. I tossed it and began again, this time with three cellos playing in a splintered unison. The violin followed as a clearly defined voice, adding its own character to the cellos' line. Instead of simply leading, the cellos led and responded to the violin line, sometimes as a single voice, sometimes as a warm, choral embrace.
I called it Passing Tones, a name that – like the loss of a loved one – is at once painfully simple and multifaceted. Toby has passed gracefully from this life, as she passed SCMS gracefully to James. The cellos pass a tune to the violin, which passes it back. And passing tones, in musical parlance, are the simplest, most common dissonances in Western Music, present in abundance in pretty much every piece Toby ever played, as she certainly knew, having been a teacher of music fundamentals all these years.
When I felt I had it right, I sent it off to James. I wasn't sure what he would do with it, but I thought that although I was fulfilling a selfish need in writing the piece – as a way of coping with loss — the result might have some value for others as well.
I've since learned that there will be a memorial service for Toby in Benaroya Hall next month – October 14th — and this piece will be performed. I wish I could attend, but I'm hopeful that Passing Tones will have a meaningful presence in my absence.

The East of England has among the lowest crime rates recorded by the police but the second highest rate of crimes against the person according to the British Crime Survey.
The total police recorded crime rate in 2010/11 was 62 per 1,000 population compared with the England average of 75 per 1,000, similar to the South West and North East. However, the household crime rate estimated by the British Crime Survey (BCS) was similar to the England average (2,500 household offences per 10,000 households compared with 2,520). Meanwhile, the BCS estimated 920 crimes were committed against the person per 10,000 adults, the second highest of all the English regions (after London).
At local authority level the highest rate for selected recorded crimes was in Cambridge (68.8 per 1,000 population), more than four times the rate in Broadland (15.4 per 1,000 population).
The median equivalised disposable weekly household income after housing costs in the East of England was £380, the second highest of all English regions in the three-year period 2007/08 to 2009/10.
In the region 20 per cent of people (1.1 million) were in households with incomes below the poverty threshold. This is among the lowest proportions in the UK.
Life expectancy at birth for both females (83.2 years) and males (79.6 years) in the East of England in the three-year period 2008 to 2010 was higher than the UK average (82.3 and 78.2 years respectively). Within the region, life expectancy for males was highest for East Cambridgeshire (81.5 years) and lowest in both Peterborough unitary authority (UA) and in Fenland (77.5 years). For females the highest life expectancy was in South Cambridgeshire (85.1 years) and lowest in Luton UA (80.9 years).
The median house price in 2009 was £175,000, the joint third highest of the English regions with the South West, and after London and the South East.
The East had the second highest proportion in England of households that are married/cohabitating couples with dependent children, at 22.5 per cent in 2010.
The East of England has among the lowest proportions of children living in workless households at 11.9 per cent in Q2 2011. This is similar to the South West (11.7 per cent) but higher than the South East (9.8 per cent).

This profile is based on the latest published data at the time of writing.
The British Crime Survey provides a measure of people's experience of crime based on responses to a survey of households and does not cover all types of crime, for example fraud or forgery or crimes against commercial property. Recorded crime covers offences reported to and recorded by the police. Population for crime rates covers those aged 16 and over.
Selected recorded crimes covers: theft of a vehicle, theft from a vehicle, vehicle interference and tampering, domestic burglary, theft of a pedal cycle, theft from a person, criminal damage, common assault, wounding and robbery (of personal property not business property). This set of crimes covers about 60 per cent of all recorded crimes.
Disposable household income is net of income tax, National Insurance, contributions to personal pension schemes, child maintenance and Council Tax and is adjusted for household size and composition (equivalised). The 'after housing costs' measure will partly take into account differences in the cost of living between regions as housing costs include rent, water rates, mortgage interest payment, building insurance premiums, ground rent and service charges. The data are a three year average.
The median is the middle value, so that half of cases are above and half below that value.
The poverty threshold is household income below 60 per cent of UK contemporary median disposable household income after housing costs. The data are a three year average. The regional trends article 'Understanding incomes at small area level' looks at the distribution of average income within regions, local authorities and Middle Layer Super Output Areas (MSOA).
Life expectancy figures are based on mortality among those living in the area in calendar years and mid-year population estimates. Rankings of the areas with the highest and lowest life expectancies are based on unrounded data. The data are a three year average.
The information on median house price is based on the prices paid for all dwellings (houses/flats) which changed ownership during 2009, excluding those bought at non-market prices.
Workless households are households with at least one person aged 16 to 64, where no-one aged 16 or over is in employment. Children refers to all children under 16.
British Crime Survey and Recorded Crime data are from the Home Office.
Household income data are from the Households Below Average Income series, Department for Work and Pensions.
Life expectancy figures are calculated by the Office for National Statistics.
House prices data are from the Department for Communities and Local Government.
Household type data are from the Annual Population Survey, Office for National Statistics.
Workless household data are from the Labour Force Survey, Office for National Statistics.

Follow up on the Justin Bieber incident yesterday. If you didn't hear, he got a new ferarri and started speeding up and down the street he lives on and making a ton of noise, neighbor confronts him, they argue, get in a fight and the Biebs allegedly SPIT ON his neighbor and threatened to kill him as well. It resulted in Bieber facing possible battery charges. So Today Justin said to the media the neighbor is lying and its all false…..well lets see here Justin, a few weeks ago I posted a blog video of you charging at a paparazzi and threatening to kill him, a few months ago a lady who asked for your autograph in a gym said you and your friends mocked her and you spit on her water bottle which she sold on ebay……I guess we need a little more to go off of here than your word.
John holmes the Colorado Movie Theatre shooter, who killed 12, injured 58 and faces 116 counts of attempted murder is striking a plea deal to plead guilty to avoid the death penalty and live out the rest of his days in prison……that sucks, in my opinion, but I'm not going into all that.
And did you hear the latest out of Playboys own Hugh Hefner.....Hef says he's slept with over a thousand women. Although at 86 years old, when Hef says he's sleeping with women, he's…ya know….literally sleeping.
Incase you missed it, here is the FOXERAZZI. Listen below and tell me what you think.
According to relationship experts who were surveyed by YourTango.com, women CAN change a man.
96% of the experts say that great husbands are made, not born. That goes against everything I have ever heard.
Women looking for a long-term relationship should go against what their mama's told them and date a guy who's a 'bad boy.' 85% of experts say it's possible for a women to reform these bad boys and make it work.
Single dads are another good choice: three out of five experts say that guys with kids would be excellent long-term relationship material.
55% of experts say that guys over 40 that haven't been married are worth the risk. This doesn't mean that he's got commitment problems or other issues just because he's older.
However, 88% warn women to stay as far away as possible from 'mama's boys.'
89% say not to waste time with guys who are addicted to drugs, alcohol, gambling, or sex. Don't these guys classify as 'bad boys'? I guess these experts aren't referring to the hardcore bad boys, just the speeding ticket, tattooed, bad boys.
With Easter just around the corner, the sugary marshmallow goodness, Peeps, have blessed the shelves of most stores.
Did you know that two-thirds of people will follow their tradition and bite the heads off of these scrumptious rabbits?
According to a new survey by the makers of Peeps, 65% of people say they eat Peeps by biting off the head first. 13% of people eat the fluffy tail first while 16% take small nibbles all over the body.
The survey also found that half of people will eat only one or two Peeps on Easter. However, 8% will indulge and eat between six and ten.
Also since we are talking statistics here, they also asked people the old question of "Which came first the chicken or the egg?"
72% claimed the chicken came first. WRONG- Science has proven it's the egg that came first.
Learning something new every day. Happy Easter!
This past Saturday, a guy in St. George, Utah set up a romantic scavenger hunt for his girlfriend. If she would have followed all of the clues, she would have found a box near their Mormon temple that had candy and a note asking her to a dance.
She never got to fine her treasure, though. The bomb squad found it first.
This is because around 5:30 P.M. that day, someone saw the box that had the word "Army" written on it, in a gazebo right by the St. George Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints temple. Thinking it was suspicious, the police were called.
Eventually, the bomb squad shut down all the streets nearby and started investigating. However, before they could send in the bomb-sniffling robot to destroy the box, the guy ran up and told them it was part of the scavenger hunt he'd set up for his girlfriend.
After some convincing, the police opened the box to fine the candy and note, and called off the investigation.
Well if this couple ends up getting married they are going to have one great story to tell their kids.
Everyone has been saying it all along; Lindsay Lohan can't dodge jail forever. This prophecy came true yesterday during one of Lindsay's scene for the show "Anger Management."
Just like in real life, Lindsay, who plays herself on the show, didn't do the jail scene as a prisoner. Her character was at the penitentiary doing community service and because of that still got out of wearing an orange jumpsuit.
Lindsay has been reported as a "dream to work with" too. She has been nailing all of her lines and being super nice to everyone on the set. She even posed for pictures with other cast members, including Darius McCrary, (aka Eddie Winslow from "Family Matters") who plays a prisoner.
Along with her jail scenes she also has a bed scene with Charlie Sheen. Apparently she likes to be around the bad boys. They probably make her feel better about herself.
So the owners of this pool always came home to find puddles by their pool. They thought the kids next door would wait until they are gone and use the pool. Not the case at all. They installed surveillance cameras and found out the truth.
Tonights song by Ariana Grande that features Mac Miller was 56% YAH! Check it out!
Forget about the philandering and the lying -- none of that matters
anymore ... because ..Tiger Woods...is #1 again!!!
Woods took home the title at the Arnold Palmer Invitational today, which
officially makes him the top ranked golfer in the world. He has not held
that title since October, 2010 ... just a month before he ... well, you
Lindsay Lohan was actually on time to the Anger Management set where she
was helping Sheen out with the show….45 minutes early!! Maybe she's comin
around finally, or not ….*
Bobby Brown is under house arrest for DUI. Which doesn't really bother
him, since that's where he keeps all his booze and weed.
So I've been waiting for more of this to hit the media. It's Official now…Britney Spears new boyfriend! David Lucando. Every Day Average Guy!! Not rich….not even that well to do, but stable. He's a paralegal with no ties to anyone in Showbusiness! I just want to know exactly how they met….how does a non-famous person meet a famous person and that famous person trusts to date them? And everything about this guy says he's a really good straight up guy….so Britney….this may sound odd, but I hope you can actually HANG ON to this one!
Ashton Kutcher told an interviewer he doesn't care if people think he's stupid. Sweet. So no hard feelings then.
--Ryan Gosling has announced that he'll be taking a break from acting. Well, yeah, I would if I was him…..gotta have some time to spend some of that money…..plus not working is always fun too.
Gwyneth Paltrow released a cookbook: . . . First movies. Then music. Now books? Is there anything she CAN'T annoy us with?

You pyonged "B.o.B – Castles"Publish Note No Thanks
[Hook: Trey Songz]
Everything I ever said
Everything that I have done
Tryna show 'em it's my time
Building mansions in my mind
Now thats all so yesterday
I'm just lighting up my fire
Tell the world I'm saying goodbye
You ask me why...
I'm building castles in the sky
I'm building castles in the sky
[Verse 1: B.o.B]
I use to ride around town in a whatcha call it
Looking like a demo rapper, feeling like a dusty wallet
Getting fired, then hired, then re-fired
The idiots guide to how to build an empire
I show you how to stunt, show you how to pop
Gotta watch for my wrist and a watch for my paps
Ballin' from the baseline, bottom to the top
Got bullets on speed-dial, yeah I call shots
Now you can't act like you never heard of me
Cause I'm so third degree, everyday I'm burning leaves
I'm in my castle and I'm never coming down
They always said I had my head in the clouds, HA!
[Hook: Trey Songz]
[Verse 2: B.o.B]
I use to fantasize about the baddest girl I couldn't get with
Couldn't get her number, couldn't even get a digit
Then I saw the light now my nights are quite explicit
I'll be lost inside the ganja, would've sworn I went missing
Got bills paid
Got the whole hood saying damn Bobby Ray done came a mighty long way
No GPS, OnStar or navigation
I'm a self made niggas, shout out to my operation
It started in my mind then it started taking shape
I still cannot believe these events are taking place
Uh, I'm in my castle and I'm never coming down
It's no wonder my heads in the clouds, ha!
[Hook: Trey Songz]
[Bridge: B.o.B]
Building castles the size of colosseums
Thirty thousand feet up, I swear you gotta see 'em
Cruising altitude with a foolish attitude
Headed for the moon, maybe Mars, maybe Venus
