by Arunachal Chakma News
January 22, 2014
People gathering before the meeting at Noida
New Delhi: With the Grand Biju Mela just two months away, Arunachal Pradesh Chakma Students Union is exploring numbers of ways to collect funds to make it a success. In a meeting held recently in Noida, APCSU Chief General Secretary, Prahlad Chakma informed all its supporters and members that the Bizu Mela is the threshold for a greater movement in Arunachal Pradesh for the Chakma Community. He said that the Bizu Mela is not just a celebration of a new year but a chance for us to showcase and express our 50 years long suffering and misery. It's a point where we can unite and awake all our people to our strength, hence, it is very important for everyone to contribute as much amount as they are capable of for the big event.
He also thanks the entire Chakma community in Noida who has been consistent in paying the monthly subscription fees since one year. And their sincere monetarily assistant have made APCSU run its office in Arunachal Pradesh successfully. Gyanomoni Chakma and Probin Ranjan Chakma, the Director and the pPresident of Noida Chakma youth Association respectively have agreed to continue its support for APCSU and for the Bizu Mela. More than 300 Chakmas reside in Noida and half of them stay with their family.
Ranjan Chakma, President of APCSU updated everyone that right after the Bizu Mela, the union would hold a general meeting with all the Chakmas where they would invite the Citizenship Right Committee of Chakma and Hazong of Arunachal Pradesh (CCRCHAP), Chakma intellectuals, Women representatives and all the Headmen to discuss the possible reformation of CCRCHAP and re-election of its members if needed and agreed by the majority. He hold the view that Chakma intellectuals currently working and studying in different parts of the country would come and attend the Mela and therefore it would be easy to hold conferences during the Bizu Mela along with them to discuss and decide what best could to be done to solve the citizenship issue of the Chakma permanently. He also said along the line of Prahlad that Bizu Mela is not just a celebration but a Hizek (Scream).
In the next month, he along with Punya Chakma, Chief Adviser of APCSU would go to Kolkata to recreate APCSU Unit there and to collect funds for the Mela. At the beginning of this month they have met with Rakesh Chakma, a hard core supporter of APCSU presently staying in Nagpur. Rakesh would form the APCSU Nagpur in the coming month.
The Bizu Mela will take place on 13-15th April 2014 at Jyostnapur Ground, Diyun Tinali.

Chakmas Gearing Up for a Grand Bizu Mela in Arunachal Pradesh
by Arunachal Chakma News
October 11, 2013
DIYUN: An air of anticipation pregnant with excitement fills the very atmosphere of the Chakma inhabited areas in Arunachal Pradesh. Thousands of Chakma people are all but gearing up for the upcoming Bizu Mela slated to be commenced in mid April, 2013. In an attempt to make the celebratory event a historical first of its kind, several delegates who comprise the Tripura Bizu Mela Central Committee have arrived in Arunachal Pradesh on October 10, 2013. The visiting committee comprises of prominent cultural aficionados including Aniruddha Chakma (Asst. Gen. Secretary), Mr. Arun Kanti Chakma (Cultural Secretary) and Mr. Sukbilash Chakma (Games and Sports Secretary).
The aforementioned members of the committee have been playing crucial roles for long past in the preservation and promotion of culture, traditions and the history of the Chakma people; their work has mostly been prominently successful across Tripura though. It is also being planned to constitute a separate body – to be christened Arunachal State Bizu Mela Committee – on October 15, 2013 in order to provide a much-needed impetus towards the realization of the goal of making the grand Bizu Mela, which holds the promise of rewriting the history of the Chakma community in Arunachal Pradesh, a grand success.
It is hoped that the plethora of subtle beauty and inherently fascinating aspects about the Chakma culture and tradition would be on generous display during the interlude across which this much anticipated event is scheduled to pan out. The taste and flavor of 'Pajjon Ton' (a mixed vegetable based dished) especially prepared during the Bizu festival is perhaps duly expected to add to the cheerful atmosphere, which according to many, is surely going be the signature attribute of the grand occasion.
All in all the people are keeping an optimistic view about the much talked about celebrations, come April 2014 even as many are hopeful about this grand event leaving a significant impact in terms of coming together of the Chakma people, besides fostering unity as well as giving out the message of peaceful co-existence to the other communities of Arunachal Pradesh. Apparently, it is no surprise when many are heard to have confessed that they have already began the countdown to the Grand Bizu Mela 2014.

Draft Ideas for 1st Arunachal Sate Bizumela-2014
by Pradhir Talukdar Rega
A proposal to hold a Bizu Festival in 2014 at Diyun is placed. In the meantime, the point is discussed during several meetings in Diyun. The idea was not only to recollect the 50 years of Boor Porongy Chakmas in Arunachal but also to turn around for a positive approach of progress in all respects. It is also to mark for better and peaceful living during this transitional trek of time.
The naming of the festival may be 'Bizu Mela-2014' or 'Solidarity For Peace Festival-14' or 'Bihu for Brotherhood-2014'. However, the theme is Solidarity for peace and development. More ideas are welcome in this matter.
Some said the proposed 'Bizu Festival' is to mark the 50 years of Boor Porong (The Great Migration/Exodus) in 1964. After 50 years apparently 80% of the total Chakma population presence in the state is Indian by birth. So, the term 'REFUGEE' used by medias is unfair for the Chakmas.
The Chakmas were welcomed and settled as migrant to this land of diversity and natural beauty. Since then this population of tremendous work force has been contributing to the region as well as the country.
It is to be mentioned that in 2006 a grand Bizu Festival was organised by BOC (Bizu Organising Committee) where a group 45 artists participated from Tripura. The gathering was a remarkable one from entertainment, educational and relation building point of view.
A number artists from Assam, Mizoram, Tripura are expected to take part in 2014 Bizu Festival with their own inspiration. A number of American/European friends expressed to take part.
The following points were also discussed in various meetings.
§ An audio cassette of 8 songs be recorded.
§ A souvenir (magazine) be published.
§ A short video film on anti-drugs and education awareness be taped (depends on availability of written drama in Akhamia).
§ Inauguration of the event by a cabinet minister.
§ Invitation to state ministers, VIPs, local community leaders and celebrities.
§ Invitation to the Chakma Chief Raja Devasish Roy as elected member from Asia region to The United Nations Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues.
§ Invitation to CEM of CADC and a group of artists from Mizoram, Tripura and Assam.
Following proposals were raised
1. The audio cassette consisting of various local community songs be recorded with the sponsorship from employees of Arunachal.
2. The fund for the magazine be raised by one of our engineer in Tripura.
3. A friendly team of State Level Bizu Mela Committee from Tripura will visit Diyun during Durga Puja (10-14 Oct. 2013) to exchange more positive ideas toward the success of the proposal. Formal information will be communicated.
Progress already made.
§ Two rounds of discussion already made in Diyun.
§ A number of organizations and GBs attended and expressed positively.
§ Well wishers from Tripura are ready to support.
§ CADC and Chakma Chief's aid are informed informally.
§ Couple of songs already collected by REGA.
§ For collecting articles, poems... etc for magazine Email: email@example.com is ready/aacsu or cca or some more org's email be included.
§ For songs Email: email@example.com is ready.
Everything is dependent on the people at ground level. Youth and students are the crucial force for achievement and for coordinating all round preparation BOC will be accountable.

|mother/daughter ink
My husband said now that we have tats we're badasses (because nothing says badass like a tat that says "love").
Of course, tattoos aren't for everyone, though I have to say as a romance writer tatted heroes are kinda hot (you're welcome for not indulging in a spam of hot tattooed guy pix...unless you want that, in which case I can dedicate an entire blog post to it).
I've been considering getting inked for a while, and now that I've done it, there are several others I want to get. This is the next one:
|homage to Farenheit 451
I love this because it's simple, but says so much. Symbolic of the fight against censorship, specifically of books and words, but in a larger sense of ideas and people, I see it as a literary equivalent of NoH8.
When I was researching the 451 tattoo, I came across a whole slew of others inspired by books and literature. As an author, it warmed my heart and gave me hope for humanity that people could be so inspired by words and stories as to put permanent reminders of them on their bodies.
Here are some of the most interesting:
|Great Gatsby (I'm not a fan of the book, but this is an interesting tat)
|Still I Rise, Maya Angelou
|Fellowship of the Rings
|Cool combo of Hamlet and Nancy Drew
|Chronicles of Narnia
|Perks of Being a Wallflower
|I found a lot of Harry Potter ink, but this one is pretty cool
|This is similarly simple and adorable
|From Ender's Game
|Where the Wild Things Are
|Slaughterhouse Five
|Not really "literature" but still fun!
|Of course, Hunger Games
|From my fave series ever (The Dark Tower)...this one is tempting...

Health and Efficiency
It's not all doom and gloom being part of the Japanese machine; health insurance is pretty good and companies, by law, must organize yearly check-ups. For this alone there are countless specialty clinics that deal specifically with the queues of salarymen sent out to see how decrepit they have become over the year. These checks are usually pretty rigorous and give a pretty good status indication of your body. And though they are sometimes scheduled in busy periods and they can be a little bit of a chore I always follow them uncomplainingly as you really can't mess about when it comes to health.
Today, the first day at work this year, I was greeted by a fat envelope on my desk containing all the necessary information for my check-up next week. A little guide of how to get to the clinic, an appointment sheet, a questionnaire asking the usual "do you have an illness?" or "do you smoke?" and a little DIY feces collection kit. The latter consists of a flushable paper sheet which is to catch my movements, a little eye-lash brush type affair to pick up the aforementioned evacuation and a thankfully airtight plastic vial to store it in. A lot of fun, as you can imagine. Also in preparation I must not eat a thing for roughly 12 hours before the appointment.
I can expect the usual. Apart from the feces I will also have to provide a urine sample, probably on the day. Then they'll cart me off to a desk where a kind nurse will pierce my vein for a drop of blood. They are very good with this: always clean needles and in my many check-ups so far they've never missed. After that I'll probably have a chest X-ray while the nurses hide in a reinforced, lead-lined control booth. I must remember to wear a T-shirt that day as buttoned clothing will have to be removed. Or I may be asked to strip off completely and walk around in the Japanese equivalent of clinical pajamas.
Following there may be a check, I'm not quite sure of what, where they attach some clips to my leg and arms and send some Volts through me; it is totally painless and takes about 1 second. It may check my heart or something, I'm not sure. An eye test is also on the books; a little tabletop game where you peer into a machine which shows U shapes in various orientations and of decreasing sizes and you must waggle a joystick in the direction of the open end of the U. I wish they had a score counter on this; the competitive games-player in me always takes over at this point and I try my damnest to play it well.
A hearing test next; put on some headphones and press a button when you hear a beep. And finally a weight/height check. At some clinics you will be escorted to see a doctor who may talk you through the results, or you will be asked if you desire to speak to a doctor or not.
A few weeks later your company's administration will dump a sealed envelope with the results on your desk, all your organs and functions graded E to A and comments where necessary.
Judging by the two hour slot I have been allocated I'm getting the quick test. I'm not quite sure what the criteria are but you may sometimes get the "full test" which can take the whole morning. I had one on my 30th, so it may be just for some benchmark age brackets. The tests are the same but with two extra activities. You may get an echo-scan of your gut, a humiliating process where a nurse rubs a gelled-up camera over your guts. And possibly the Barium Shake. This is legendary and veterans always tease the newbies about how unpleasant it is. This had me very nervous but it really isn't such a big deal. You are given a Barium milkshake to drink. This is quite heavy and not unlike trying to drink liquid brick. It doesn't really taste of anything so the best thing to do is open your throat and let the gooey stuff slide in as quickly as possible. It is usually preceeded by the much more unpleasant chalky stomach medicine.
Once imbibed, you are ushered into a small room with a massive metal table, not unlike the thing James Bond was strapped on before the red laser made its way up to his privates. A nurse will hide in a control booth and bark orders at you through a speaker: on your left side, on your back, on your right side, on your stomach. All the while the table tilts and twists around. At some point a mechanical arm may come out to prod you in your stomach. A camera takes photos of all the barium in your system and thus provides a good view of the shape and state of, I believe, your actual stomach.
Afterwards you are given some laxatives to help move the Barium outwards, as some people get awfully clogged up with it. Indeed, it will lie heavy on your stomach for the rest of the day.
The best thing about the full check-up is that often you get given luncheon vouchers to use at a nearby café or restaurant; a little present for "fasting" for a few hours and walking around with a brick of Barium plugging your exit.
I've heard people, including Japanese, complain about doctors in Japan; they lay down laws, don't encourage questions, the opposite in fact, and sometimes one can put serious doubts over their competency. There are good doctors out there, but you'll have to shop around. When it comes to yearly health checks, though, there isn't really much that can go wrong, especially when it's so institutionalized. They just check the status of your organs; very little can go wrong there. It is aimed at the Japanese though, so during an earlier check, back in my podgy days, I was deemed too heavy for a Japanese person a little shorter than me; their graphs didn't quite reach as high as my crown. Other than that it's all pretty useful.
Also answering the "do you smoke?" question with a "yes" may possibly qualify you automatically for a lower grade for your lungs at certain clinics. I told a doctor this once during a later check-up and he checked my chest X-rays again, listened to me breathe and just shrugged it off. "Your lungs are fine!" he said. "But I smoke, admittedly very light cigarettes, about a pack and a half a day!" He looked over my X-rays again. "It's absolutely fine," he said. Doubtful but good news, of course.
Though the forms and questionnaires are usually only in Japanese these can be filled in beforehand so you can ask a colleague, girlfriend or wife you help you with that. During the checks themselves some very basic Japanese would be useful but you could bluff your way through it without. As long as you can handle "go here", "go there now", "hold this" commands you should be fine.
As a hypochondriac I am always a little nervous before these check-ups, but afterwards I always feel relieved. My results are pretty much always good and it's very heartening to know these check-ups occur every year. That is good going, and it's one of the better aspects of working in Japan. If you get bad grades for something you know you'll have a year to work on it before the next check-up, and often you get given booklets with advice. Don't eat too much bad food, don't lie in front of the telly too much, you fat pig, that kind of stuff. They take it all quite seriously here and this is definitely one tradition am very happy to follow in.
I just hope I'll be over this blasted snotty, throat-rasping cold by next week.

Everyone that has a passion for photography can create great images. Do you want improve your photography skills? This is the right place for you to start learning new techniques. The ideas here are some advice on ways you can improve your abilities in photography.
Choose your very best pictures if you are going to expose your work. Resist any temptation to show all of your photos or to display many pictures of similar subjects or settings. It might bore people if you keep showing the same photo multiple times. Change it around a little; show different types of photographs.
Do not let your subject get away from you! If you take a long time, there is a good chance that the subject will move, take off or there could be a change in the background that will ruin the photo. The more rapidly you can photograph your subject, the more likely you are to get your desired shot.
Often, photographers only take into account the background in a landscape photo and forget about the foreground. The foreground will be the most viewed area once the photo comes out. Great foregrounds help to show depth in a photograph and can really make for a beautiful shot.
Use photo manipulation programs to create images that would have been impossible with ordinary film only, including those that resemble watercolors, pencil sketches, and oil paintings. There are a variety of photo editing programs out there, but all the cool kids use Photoshop. Instantly converting photographs to pieces of art is as simple as selecting the "filter" button, choosing which medium you prefer, then clicking your selection.
Try to get as close as you can to your photo subject. If you are too far away, you will lose the details of your subject. Move closer to give your shots vivid clarity.
Shutter Speeds
Centering your camera on your subject will bring it into focus, but try moving the camera to change the shot's framing after focus is established. Viewing one photo after another where the subject is perfectly centered in the shot can become boring in a hurry. Shooting a photo that is not exactly centered on the subject may produce more interesting results for your viewers.
Experiment with different shutter speeds to see what works best for different scenarios. Photography lets you capture moments in a split-second and allows you to blur together time periods that are large. If you use a fast shutter speed, you can get photos of things that are in action, whereas slow shutter speeds are good for things that are not moving.
Even if you don't know your models, make sure they feel comfortable. A photographer has a powerful presence, and some subjects feel intimidated. Make conversation and ask them if you can take their photo. Many people need to know that photography is art, instead of an invasion of privacy.
Keep things as simple as possible when you are trying to capture a picture. You can frequently take an outstanding photograph without making any adjustments for color, light, motion or any other technical elements.
If you like the old style that is associated with using a camera that uses film then you should pick one up from a secondhand store and see how you like it. You can use ISO 200 black-and-white film to get a great balance between versatility and dramatic results. When getting your film developed, look into having your photographs printed on fiber-based, or other types of photo paper that are available.
Keep your arms in close to your body while holding your camera, and keep your hands on the bottom and sides of the camera. This will help create clear shots with less shaking. Having your hands and arms placed like this also reduces the chances that you will get bumped or drop the camera.
Play with the notion of scale, perspectives and expressions. You can make any object artistic when you portray it in a creative way, such as making it appear distorted, or in an unusual location. To get a new view of a familiar object, work on the compositions.
It is a good idea to experiment with the different features your camera has and also with many angles and colors. An original object is something that is not required to take a great looking picture. Taking good photographs is about turning an ordinary object into something interesting, thanks to the photographers artistic talent and skill. Finding your style can be done by trying different techniques.
Before photographing a wedding, try taking some unusual pictures of the setup, like a flower, or a makeup bag. You just might stumble on a great shot as well.
Get as close as you can to your subject. Terribly far away shots prevent the viewer from seeing clear colors and details. Try to make it easy on your audience to be able to see images clearly and vividly.
Use manual white balance for taking your photos. Doing so will alter the way the picture "feels" and also puts control into your hands. It may take some trial and error, but eventually, you will produce beautiful and creative photographs.
External Flash
Focus on your subject. The quality of the overall photo is hugely impacted by whether or not the focus is on your subject. If you need your photos to have good composure, keep your camera in focus at all times. Especially when you are starting out, try to keep your main subject centered and in view. The background will fall into place, so do not worry about it.
Digital cameras almost always have a built-in flash that will go off when the external light is too dim. For a broader flash range, get a professional camera with an external flash function. Look at your camera and determine whether or not it features a "hot shoe" near the top; this is where the external flash unit attaches to the camera. If your camera can accommodate the external flash, bring it with you to the camera store to find the right model.
Your image sensor settings (ISO) can help you get very good shots if you know how to work with them. If not, they can sabotage your pictures quickly. Turning your camera's ISO high increases the amount of grain you will see in your photos. This is not something you want in your photographs unless you are taking a photo that is bettered by the grainy effect.
Figure out the best blend of aperture, ISO and shutter speed. Those three things affect your picture's exposure. Unless you are seeking a certain mood, try not to take under- or over-exposed photos. See what kind of combinations you can come up with by switching up these three features.
It is possible to make any subject more interesting by shooting from another angle, adjusting the camera settings or utilizing alternative lighting. Experiment with theses different attributes before you arrive on location, so that you have a better idea of how each one can transform a shot.
When you are taking photographs, remember that you do not have to overcrowd it. Simple natural shots are sometimes the best ones. Simplicity is sometimes more beautiful, and mastering the ability to know when can transcend your photos to a new level.
A tripod is an invaluable photography tool. Even the slightest movements are noticeable if you are taking photos of action shots or low-speed shots. An inexpensive tripod will help keep blurs out of your images. A tripod can ensure your pictures seem more professional, and get rid of results that were unexpected as well.
Before photographing a wedding, try taking some unusual pictures of the setup, like a flower, or a makeup bag. It also allows you to catch a few hidden gems of details that might be overlooked when the event is finally underway.
Play with your camera's settings to make your photographs more appealing. Switching to a shallow field depth will blur the background and make your central subject stand out.
Limit yourself to ensure that each photograph you take is creative. For instance, set a daily goal and just shoot what represents a single concept, like "sweet." Shoot around 100 different pictures in the same room, or from one certain point. By enforcing this limitation, your mind has to find new ways to express the subject in a great photograph and this causes you to think beyond your normal comfort-zone.
Lighting will not always be on your side when you are shooting landscape. This is especially true if there's no good light anywhere in the landscape you want to photograph. So, what are your options? You may want to utilize gradient filters in photographic programs, such as Photoshop, in order to correct lighting imbalances.
When taking a picture of a group of people, let them know what they should wear before the shot. It's not necessary for them to wear colors that match exactly, but it will look much better in the final picture if they are wearing complementary hues. Recommend warm colors or neutral hues; these shades blend in well with a variety of different backgrounds. If your subjects prefer bright colors, suggest that they also wear black to balance out your photo.
You should think about a particular concept you are aiming for prior to shooting. Sit down, and write out a plan. Come up with ideas that can be useful for taking better pictures. Photography is like any other art form; the quality shows through when carefully thought out plans and details are executed. Take your time, and you will enjoy much more impressive photos.
Try to take your photographs quickly. Moments are fleeting, if you take too long getting ready for a shot, your subject may be long gone by the time you take the photograph. Animals will move, people will not want to smile as long, or the candid moment will go away if you don't take the shot when you can. Do not let changing the settings make you miss a great shot.
Organize your subjects into the right pose for you. If you notice that not very many of your photos from family events just are not turning out as well as you would like, it may be because they are all candid photos, or because you had caught someone by surprise. This enables you to improve the look and feel of each shot.
Practice Shots
Always think about the purpose of every photo you shoot. You will be able to capture some scenes better by shooting them vertically, rather than horizontally. Photo editing can only do so much, so get the picture right the first time around.
If you have to adjust to new backdrops or subjects, take lots of practice shots. Because every shot is different, these practice shots will offer you the chance to make adjustments before reaching the final product. Lighting often changes, so take as many practice photos as necessary between shots to ensure your settings are correctly set.
Keep your images balanced. The best way to get your photos up to the standards of art galleries is by having a careful balance to every element in the image. Any distracting element should be cropped out. The horizon should always be level, and you should have your subject framed properly so it isn't placed awkwardly in the photo.
Attempt to capture your subject from a different angle to change the effect. Photos taken from a straight-on angle can be taken by virtually anyone. Instead, try shooting a subject from up above, or look for a way to get below the subject and shoot from the ground. To get a nice photo, try getting a sideways shot or one that is diagonal.
If the environment in which you are taking photos has little light, use a lower f-stop. This prevents blurs from showing up on your pictures. Go with shutter speeds no faster than .005 second, or perhaps .004 seconds.
With your new knowledge, you should be ready to get out there and experiment! With any luck, these hints and tips will take your photographs from dull to dramatic. Also experiment with different subjects so you can see what type of photography you enjoy most.
Achieve noteworthy effects by trying different shutter speeds. You can take action pictures without any motion blur by using a faster shutter speed. This is particularly useful when you are taking pictures of a sporting event. On the other hand, you can use a slow shutter speed to get motion blur. You can photograph streams and waterfalls using this setting.

Here's a report about how poetry showed up in our 2013 Commencement—further testimony to how, at our most important moments, we rely on poetry to do much of the heavy lifting.
First, in a move that jolted a number of us, my colleague Jose´ Ballesteros of the Foreign Language Department read "Imagine the Angels of Bread" by Puerto Rican poet Martin Espada. While the poem was in line with one traditional commencement theme—the hope that this graduating class will help bring about a brighter future—it was startlingly specific about the reality that needs changing.
As you read it, imagine how this would strike a graduation crowd just settling in for the ritual platitudes we expect upon such occasions. Even when we have moved beyond platitude to poetry, it has been to verse far more serene. For instance, for many years we read Lucille Clifton's "blessing of the boats (at St. Mary's)," which concludes, "may you in your innocence sail from this to that." Espada's poem, by contrast, is a revolutionary wish fulfillment, and suddenly sailing from this to that involves squatters evicting their landlords and refugees deporting immigration judges:
Imagine the Angels of Bread
By Martin Espada
This is the year that squatters evict landlords,
gazing like admirals from the rail
of the roofdeck
or levitating hands in praise
of steam in the shower;
this is the year
that shawled refugees deport judges
who stare at the floor
and their swollen feet
as files are stamped
with their destination;
this is the year that police revolvers,
stove-hot, blister the fingers
of raging cops,
and nightsticks splinter
in their palms;
this is the year
that darkskinned men
lynched a century ago
return to sip coffee quietly
with the apologizing descendants
of their executioners.
This is the year that those
who swim the border's undertow
and shiver in boxcars
are greeted with trumpets and drums
at the first railroad crossing
on the other side;
this is the year that the hands
pulling tomatoes from the vine
uproot the deed to the earth that sprouts the vine,
the hands canning tomatoes
are named in the will
that owns the bedlam of the cannery;
this is the year that the eyes
stinging from the poison that purifies toilets
awaken at last to the sight
of a rooster-loud hillside,
pilgrimage of immigrant birth;
this is the year that cockroaches
become extinct, that no doctor
finds a roach embedded
in the ear of an infant;
this is the year that the food stamps
of adolescent mothers
are auctioned like gold doubloons,
and no coin is given to buy machetes
for the next bouquet of severed heads
in coffee plantation country.
If the abolition of slave-manacles
began as a vision of hands without manacles,
then this is the year;
if the shutdown of extermination camps
began as imagination of a land
without barbed wire or the crematorium,
then this is the year;
if every rebellion begins with the idea
that conquerors on horseback
are not many-legged gods, that they too drown
if plunged in the river,
then this is the year.
So may every humiliated mouth,
teeth like desecrated headstones,
fill with the angels of bread.
Jose concluded the reading, "Class of 2013, this is the year!"
By the way, I think Lucille Clifton would have loved Jose´reading this poem. She was all about "comforting the afflicted and afflicting the comfortable," and Espada keeps us from becoming too comfortable.
We didn't hear any poetry from our valedictorian, which surprised me as she was an English major (also an Economics major). Maryland Governor Martin O'Malley, meanwhile, focused more on the economics of education than on its humanistic dimensions. "We need leadership that is entrepreneurial," he told us, and "Open up community-based solutions on a national scale." (Just as an aside, O'Malley has been a good governor but I can't imagine him as President of the United States, even though his name is often mentioned amongst potential Democratic candidates.)
But the student chosen by the senior class to deliver the "Quintessential Student" address did quote Maya Angelou. Wonderfully named Jasmine Jones, this African American student roused us all with her citation of Angelou:
You may encounter many defeats, but you must not be defeated. In fact, it may be necessary to encounter the defeats, so you can know who you are, what you can rise from, how you can still come out of it.
All in all, it was a very good day. I hugged all my majors and told their parents how fortunate I was to have had their sons and daughters in my life. Yes, Class of 2013, this is the year. Most of you have come to know who you are, and this self-knowledge will help you get through the inevitable defeats that lie ahead.
Be angels of bread to the world.

Update: We've now swapped in the natively English press release. There's also confirmation that Mango will indeed be known as Windows Phone 7.1.
Update 2: Turns out Microsoft "had to give [the SDK] a name" and dubbed it 7.1, so Mango retains its formal WP7 moniker.
The first thing to note is that the update will be "freely available" to all current Windows Phone handsets, something Microsoft already committed to, and will be ready for download "at the beginning of
A Beta SDK of the new Windows Phone free tools will be available within 24 hours, we're promised, for developers to sink their teeth into.
In the communications department, Microsoft is introducing conversation threads, which seamlessly transition between MSN Messenger chats, SMS, and Facebook messaging to keep you talking to the same person irrespective of the method. New contact group tiles are also incoming, with the ability to send quick emails or IMs to entire groups. Twitter and LinkedIn contact integration is mentioned, though we expect this go a lot deeper in Twitter's case, as Microsoft has already demonstrated. Speaking of more in-depth integration, Microsoft has improved the Live Tiles to allow the display of more dynamic information from apps, which will of course be able to multitask beautifully. Internet Explorer 9 is also joining in on the Mango fun with support for HTML5. Jump past the break for all the details.
Update 3: Would you look at that, Bing search has gotten a thorough sprucing up as well. Video of all the new goodness follows after the break -- or you can click here to hit up Microsoft's own video library, which is loaded to the gills with feature overviews.

I've been a game enthusiast since i started working with computers. Games with good graphics and gameplay always catches my eyes. INFINITY WARD did a great job on Call of Duty 4 - Modern Warfare. First of all, the game looks very realistic and stunning...one of the few games that support/utilize DirectX10.
In Single-player, you'll be switching between the perspectives of two soldiers, a U.S. Marine and a S.A.S. British soldier. Both team has the same goal, to extinguish a terrorist threat. Every mission of each team is linked to one another which makes it more understandable. Story is presented so well with such a raw and gritty fashion so it's easy to be drawn into it... and I have to say, dramatic twist and some of the sequences will shock and leave you breathless.
The modern settings adds some very interesting features. First will be the guns, some of the primary weapons has grenade launcher and a lot of the guns now have laser-sights, making it easier to shoot your enemies. Here's the interesting part, you can shoot through thin walls, wood, or anything that looks like it that could provide poor cover on your target. Just a reminder, always watch your six...some of the bad guys dont give up easily and can still kill you with a "last stand shots" which makes it more life-like. You even have stuff like night vision, flash-bangs, air strikes, bombing runs, claymores, and other various explosives to give you an upper hand over your enemies so use it wisely. Your enemies are smart so don't underestimate them, they'll take advantage of cover, grenades, and if they're given the chance, they'll outflank you.
The only problem I saw was a short campaign, you can even finish the game in just one sitting... but I assure you it's a thrill ride which makes this game stand out.
Multi-player mode offers a lot of things, you can choose between deathmatch, team deathmatch, capture the flag, territories and so on. It can be addictive as well because of the level-up and perks system... the higher level you get, the more guns are unlocked (more powerful ofcourse). Perks are also unlocked at the same time like claymore, grenade laucher, deep penetration (for shooting walls), last stand, increase bullet damage, and more. You have to select 3-perks wisely... that will depend on what type of guns and match-up your going to play. Camo patterns and different iron sights are also available on this game. You can even call a chopper and air-strike on multi-player, that is if you're able to kill 5-7 enemies without dying.
Call of Duty 4 is one of the most eye-pleasing games to date. With gorgeous destruction, eye-piercingly sharp gun models, and dynamic shadows...this one is worth checking out.
Here are some pictures taken from Call of Duty 4 - Modern Warfare
and for some videos...
By the way Call of Duty - Modern Warfare 2 is coming this 2009... here's a teaser.

SmartState Center for Automotive Manufacturing
Informed Control of Manufacturing Processes
Welcome to the research group site of Dr. Laine Mears in Clemson University's Automotive Engineering Department. The group is located at the Clemson University - International Center for Automotive Research (CU-ICAR), a 250-acre academia+industry research campus in Greenville, SC, USA.
The lab's research covers physical modeling of manufacturing processes, particularly error sources in machining, and application of these models to state estimation and process control. The application area is in the sensing and use of available information in manufacturing processes to improve time and quality consistency, particularly for lightweight and energy-efficient materials used in the automotive industry. The goal is to enable the cost-efficient use of these materials for reduced energy consumption in vehicle service. Models of process physics are developed and incorporated directly to machine control, and alternative processes and control systems are designed, modeled and prototyped.
Prior to coming to Clemson, Dr. Mears worked 7 years for a global bearing manufacturer and 4 years for a Japanese engine and steering parts manufacturer. This industrial experience includes machine, tooling and control system design for high-volume automotive component manufacturing. Specific process experience includes injection molding, cold ring rolling, precision grinding, superfinishing, coil winding, and different types of non-destructive testing process design. Dr. Mears also worked on setup time reduction and process optimization through lean manufacturing analysis. He is a licensed Professional Engineer, an SME Certified Manufacturing Engineer, an ASQ Certified Quality Engineer, and a BMW Lean Six Sigma Black Belt.

Friday, May 25, 2007 – Anybody who ever thought Congress wouldn't listen to a bunch of truckers better think again.
The fact lawmakers passed a bill that essentially sends the Department of Transportation back to the drawing board on its cross-border program is proof.
Truckers rallied together behind the efforts of the Owner-Operator Independent Drivers Association, urging Congress to put a stop to the Bush administration's mad rush to open the border. Congressional members were flooded with calls, e-mails and letters from truckers.
"Beyond the very important issue of shutting down this Mexican pilot program, the accomplishment here for truckers was the awakening of a sleeping giant," OOIDA President Jim Johnston said.
"Truckers, by working through the system and contacting elected officials, were able to put a stop to a program that was going to be very detrimental to their futures."
The battle over the cross-border program wasn't without huge foes. The united voice of small-business truckers ultimately claimed victory over the push for the cross-border program by big business with its deep pockets.
"I really hope this let's those who did participate, as well as those who didn't, realize the power they have by working together through the system," Johnston said.
This win has Johnston looking to the future with enormous optimism.
"There's much, much more to be worked on and accomplished in the future," Johnston said. "And, this is proof that truckers can make it happen when they work together."

Backing up your data is an essential business task that should not be ignored. Believe it or not, it's not a matter of if your systems will crash putting your data at risk, but when. There's a good chance that you could face data loss if systems crash, and backing up your data will reduce this loss. In case you are struggling with backing up your data, we have come up with eight tips that can help.
When it comes to backing up the data on your company's computers and systems, most companies consider five main options:
There are a wide variety of backup solutions available, so it is a good idea to sit down and figure out which are best for your business. The vast majority of companies integrate multiple solutions in order to maximize the effectiveness of their backups and spread the risk of losing data around a bit.
Despite all of the backup options available, you can narrow these down to two categories, the fact that the backups are kept in two locations:
In order to ensure that your data backups are available should you need them you could split up the locations where they are kept. Should you keep all of your backups on hard drives in the office and there is damage to the premises, you could see your data disappear. One of the most effective strategies is to have one set of backups on-site, and another off-site which will ensure that should there be a disaster in one location, the other will likely be safe and you will still be able to access your data.
Have you ever seen how people organize their hard drives? Some like to use folders and subfolders that are organized neatly, while others tend to throw files into one general folder. The same can be said for they way files are named – there's just so many differences.
Because of these differences, it can be difficult to back up and recover files properly. We recommend that you pick a naming and file system that every file and folder will follow across all systems. This means backups will be quicker, you will be able to see what is new, and you will spend less time organizing files.
Beyond this, an efficient naming and organization structure goes a long way toward making it easier to find files and recover them should your systems go down.
While it may be tempting to back every file and folder up, in an effort to maximize efficiency of your solution, it is better to not back everything up. We aren't saying don't back anything up, but you should take time to identify what files and folders are to be backed up. For example, screenshots that have been uploaded to the Web may not need to be kept.
The same can be said for non-work related files. While these may be important to your personal life, they likely aren't to the business so should not be backed up onto your business backups.
Look at each file and folder and see if it has something to do with business decisions, or is in anyway tied to your business. If it is then it is probably a good idea to keep it.
Stay tuned for the next four tips coming soon. If you would like to learn more about data backups in the mean time however, please contact us today.

I really am not a fan of summer because of heat, humidity, bugs...I will take the other three seasons any day over summer. I also love the coziness of being inside and the comfort of the darkness blanket that enfolds. Anyway, I love this painting, Mary. This is a style I so admire!!

This is a really beautiful painting, Mary, and I can see you sitting by the harbor making such utilitarian area so beautiful. Hasn't been as hot here as up north, but the humidity makes it just as uncomfortable!

What a place to sit down relax and do some painting! I do love the summer months but the humidity is what's killing us in NY! I'm glad I don't do plein aire since the bugs would finish us off..LOL This is a beautiful piece, Mary!!!

Hi Mary ... sorry, my Gypsy Woman!
I love your ink and wash!!! It is such a striking composition. As for the heat, yup - appreciate it now; it will be cold and wet soon enough. :)

Ok, I'll quit bitching ;) because.....
today is MY PERFECT SUMMER WEATHER-
78 beautiful degrees with only enough humidity in the air so it feels like summer.
Little breeze off the ocean. Bright sun.
Thanks for your sympathies though, I appreciate them as well as your approval of the drawing.
