Types of Nonfiction
Essays are texts that express the author's opinion on a topic through discussion of evidence, stories, or personal experience. Essays vary in length, but they tend to be shorter works published in larger collections. College students are expected to write essays for many of their courses reflecting the subject matter.
Articles are nonfiction works published in periodicals (such as newspapers, magazines or journals). Some articles contain purely factual information; for example, many newspaper articles report only the facts about a particular event. Some articles express opinions or arguments and are very similar to essays.
Nonfiction Books
Nonfiction books can be written on a variety of subjects. Some types of nonfiction books give background on a subject such as history or science books. Some make arguments, such as political books. Some instruct the reader, as in self-help or money management books. Some nonfiction books tell stories, such as biographies or memoirs. These works can seem similar to novels (fictional books), but since they tell the true story of someone's life, they are nonfiction.
Periodicals are works published on a regular basis such as newspapers, magazines, and academic journals. Works contained in periodicals are usually nonfiction (though a literary journal is a type of periodical that publishes fiction or poetry).
Anthologies are books that contain many shorter works by a variety of authors. Anthologies can contain essays or short stories.
Textbooks are books covering a particular academic subject, such as history, math or biology, for use by students.
Use quotation marks for titles of shorter works that would usually be published within another, larger work. Examples include essays, articles, short stories and poems.
Use italics (or underlining if italics are not available) for titles of longer work that would not be published within another work. Examples include books, anthologies and periodicals (such as newspapers, magazines and journals).
Tips For Reading Nonfiction
In high school, you probably read many poems, short stories, and novels. These texts are works of fiction. In college, you will be reading mostly works of nonfiction. You will almost certainly read nonfiction works in courses such as history, sociology, anthropology, biology, political science, English, and humanities. Nonfiction is work that contains factual information, information that can be verified as true, as opposed to fiction, which is a work of art created from the author's imagination and is not expected to contain facts or verifiable information.
Reading Argumentative/Expository Essays or Books
What to look for when reading nonfiction will depend largely on the type of work you're reading. In an English composition course, you will be assigned to read mostly nonfiction argumentative or expository essays, essays in which the author is asserting his/her opinion, making a point, or arguing a case. When instructors assign these types of essays, they expect that you will not only be able to discern the main idea and/or different arguments being made, but also to form your own opinion about them. In order to form your own opinion, you will need to come to a solid understanding of the main point/s of the essay. You're probably familiar with the concept of annotating a work – taking notes in the margins as you read. Annotating as you read is the first step that you should take in identifying an essay's main idea and/or the author's argument and forming your own opinion about it. Learn more about annotation. Below are some other steps, in addition to annotating, that you can take when reading a nonfiction work for deep understanding.
- Underline, and/or write on a separate piece of paper, what you think is the author's overall main idea/thesis, and all the topic sentences. The topic sentences should contain new supporting ideas, and will contain information that will help you form your own opinion. Remember that not everyone will always agree on the same main point of an essay, so don't spend a lot of time worrying about whether or not you "got the right answer" because it's not a test.
- Take a look at how the essay has been organized. Does it use chronological organization? Spatial? Seasonal? Does the essay move from the personal to the political or from the political to personal? Has the essay been organized around a series of definitions of terms? Is the essay bookended (begins and ends in the same or similar way – with a story, and anecdote) in anyway. Does the essay appear to jump from one idea to another? Does the essay make a series of related arguments? Does the organization follow any kind of pattern?
- Ask yourself why you think the author made the organizational choices he/she made.
- Ask yourself, how does this essay's organization help me better understand what the author is saying and/or help the author say it better?
- While looking for the essay's main idea, the explicit message, identify any possible implied messages.
- Look for flaws in the author's logic: inconsistencies, hypocrisies, flawed arguments, etc.
- Look up any unfamiliar words, even words that you think you know, but don't quite understand in the context of the essay.
Reading Nonfiction Textbooks
Nonfiction textbooks usually follow a pattern that is repeated from chapter to chapter. In order to get the most of out of what you read when reading nonfiction textbooks, it's best to familiarize and remain cognizant of the pattern established early on by a textbook author. All textbooks are broken down into chapters and each chapter is given a chronological number and a name and the author will have made purposeful choices about which chapters and which information to place where. Reading and remembering the title of each chapter will help with chunking the information together in your mind. In addition to chapter titles, most textbooks use subject headings. Subject headings are titles for a new bunch of information and/or a new subject. Authors of textbooks use subject headings to help orient readers to a new subject, working like transitions from one idea/subject to another. Subject headings are a way of helping the reader keep a lot of information organized, another way to chunk information into manageable sub-sections, making the information easier to retain. Reading and remembering the subject heading names, rather than skimming over them, will help you better retain what you read and will make it easier for you to go back and find information for making study notes/cards, and practice questions for quizzes.
While you may not be accustomed to writing in your textbooks, it's important to remember that annotating as you read is an important way to interact with and therefore retain what you read. Remember that, in addition to writing in the margins, annotating also means looking up any unfamiliar words that do not appear in the glossary of the textbook. Most textbooks include a glossary of commonly used words and/or terms associated with the subject or discipline near the back of the book. These glossaries are often underutilized by students and can make a difference in reading and navigating a difficult nonfiction text.

New Panasonic KX-UT670 Smart Desk Phone Recognized for Innovation
SECAUCUS, NJ--(Marketwire - Feb 2, 2012) - Panasonic System Communications Company of North America, the leader in small business phone systems*, announced today that TMC, a global, integrated media company, has named Panasonic's KX-UT670 Smart Desk SIP phone as a recipient of the 2011 INTERNET TELEPHONY Product of the Year Award.
"We are honored to receive the 2011 Internet Telephony Product of the Year Award for the KX-UT670," said Bill Savino, Marketing Manager for business communication solutions at Panasonic System Communications Company of North America. "This is Panasonic's first SIP desk phone to be based on an open source-based operating system. The KX-UT670 allows for integrated solutions to be developed for business communications and operations which are flexible, reliable and cost-effective."
The KX-UT670 is equipped with a large 7-inch LCD touchscreen, which allows for easy access to and control of phone features and installed applications. Through the use of the phone's high-quality video (H.264/720P) viewer and up to 16 integrated Panasonic Network Security Cameras, managers in retail environments can discreetly monitor a store with their desk phone from a back office or even from home. Similarly, in the education field, school faculty or authorities can monitor potential emergency situations in classrooms from a secure area by viewing live video on the phone from Panasonic's PTZ (pan, tilt, zoom) network video cameras.
The KX-UT670's Linux-based open source operating system is programmable, allowing for a company to utilize a variety of business-friendly smart phone applications or design new ones which are specific to their needs for business, facility and communication management. In the healthcare field for example, a user can develop applications to enhance business such as nurse call systems. In the hospitality industry room service can be simplified by enabling a guest to use the touchscreen to order. Additionally, applications can be developed for office facility control, allowing a user the ability to regulate temperature, open or close blinds and unlock doors remotely.
"I am happy to grant Panasonic a Product of the Year Award. The editors of INTERNET TELEPHONY have verified that KX-UT670 SIP Phone displays quality and innovation plus provides real solutions in the marketplace," stated Rich Tehrani, CEO, TMC.

Sen. Grassley questions advocacy group funding
The ranking member of the Senate Finance Committee, Sen. Charles Grassley (R-IA) has asked state-level chapters of the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) to account for funds given directly to them by drug companies or coming to them through drug company funding of the organization.An earlier inquiry of the national-level NAMI found that in 2005-2008, drug companies gave a total of $28.6 million to the organization, which has often been accused of being too supportive of mental health drugs and the companies that make them. "Public trust and public dollars are at stake," Grassley said. "People rely on medical advice and taxpayers spend billions of dollars on prescription drugs and devices through Medicare and Medicaid. Public confidence could be greatly improved if financial relationships were disclosed. My legislative effort is a common-sense reform that would require the pharmaceutical and device industry to report money it gives to doctors."

Thanks. I really wonder if the Military is sitting on alot of acrheolgy sites. If they did move to the Edwards or Nellis range, that would explain why no one has ever found any traces of them...

In doing research for the Area 51 project, I stumbled upon this job posting for Edwards AFB. It is for a Range Rider that patrolls the base, and helps keep out intruders etc. But its not a security guard position, part of the job requires experience in antropology and describes protecting "Sites" from looters.
Having visited the Canyon De Chelly last winter and become facinated with the Anasazi, is it possible that the ultimate resting spot of thier civilization is hidden somewere in the Nellis / Area 51 Range?
Why would the military be looking for people to protect sites from looters?
Why would you need people with archeology experience?
Could the military be hiding clues about the ultimate fate of the Anasazi?

David Cameron to discuss mango ban with new Indian PM
UK Prime Minister David Cameron says he is "looking forward" to discussing the EU ban on Indian mango imports with the country's new prime minister.
Mr Cameron said the ban was a "serious issue", there were concerns about possible cross-contamination and "we must make sure that that is got right".
But he told MPs he understood the strength of feeling on the matter.
Labour MP Keith Vaz had urged him to reverse the ban, which he said was harming hundreds of businesses.
Mr Vaz, who raised the subject at Prime Minister's Questions, said the ban, which came into force last week, would cost firms millions of pounds.
He said "there was no consultation with this house and no vote by British ministers" and noted that Mr Cameron would have his first conversation with India's new prime minister next week.
"Will he do his best to reverse this ban so we can keep the special relationship with India which his predecessors and he have worked so hard to maintain, and so we can have our delicious mangos once again?"
Mr Cameron began his answer by saying he was grateful for the box of alphonso mangoes delivered to Number 10 by Mr Vaz just before the ban came into force.
He added: "The European Union has to look on the basis of the science and the evidence and there are concerns about particular cross contamination in terms of British crops and British interests so we have to make that that is got right.
"But I understand how strongly he feels and how strongly the Indian community in this country feels and indeed I look forward to discussing it with the new Indian prime minister."
The ban, which began on 1 May, also includes aubergines, two types of squash, and a type of leaf used in Indian cooking.
It was brought in after non-European food pests were found in 207 shipments of fruit and vegetables in 2013.
Indian mango exporters said they have put checks in place and have approached the authorities in Brussels to try to get the ban lifted.
The UK imports around £6.3m worth of Indian mangoes per year. Similar types of mango imported from Pakistan and Bangladesh have not been banned.
Premium Alphonso mangoes, which are popular in the UK, were in season as the ban came into force.
The Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra), which voted to put the ban in place, is working with Indian authorities and the European Commission to try to get the ban lifted.
The ban includes imports of Momordica and Snake Gourd squashes, and Patra leaves, which are used in a dish called Patra.
India is currently in the process of holding its month-long general election. Votes are due to be counted on 16 May.

riley the schoolkidMonday, July 20, 2015
today, my baby started pre school. technically pre school is only starting here in September but he got space to go now.
before this big day we had quite a few settling in days at the nursery. and he was perfectly fine on those days, no tears, just super excited to play with his friends. i think that is why it was so hard for us when we dropped him off to see how he then has a complete meltdown. it was horrible leaving him there crying like that. i wish i could just turn around, scoop him up in my arms and never let go. but i know this is going to be good for not just him but for me too. school, other children and the whole setting of school is what he needs right now. i know this will get easier for both of us.... i hope.

Yes it's official – "Pay Me", the long awaited single from washed-up pop artist Irwin W. is out. Irwin W. – who is not me although he incidentally looks and sounds exactly like me, is actually the Scottish-Japanese former-frontman for the 80's photography-based rock band High ISO. Photography-based music? Yes, it's true, it does exist – I might have a dig around to see if I can't find some old music clips or interviews from High ISO to post up here in a couple of months 😀
Anyway, here's his debut single, entitled "Pay Me", which "goes out to all my photographer homies who have had their copyright infringed!" according to him. You can tell it's not me, because I would never use the word 'Homie' in actual speech.
In all seriousness tho, this is the result of my summer project, which typically comes around due to the quieter season that Tokyo photogs experience through the Obon holiday season over here. You can check out the results of last year's project here. This year I decided to really up the ante and get myself into the world of DSLR video, which was definitely a curveball for me. The amount of gear, planning and preparation that goes into making a short clip is sheer magnitudes larger than planning a photo, and all in all it ended up being a fantastic experience that's left me wanting to do more 😀
In case you're wondering yes, that is my voice and yes, I did write the lyrics (but let me keep pretending Irwin W. isn't actually me). It went through several revisions but eventually I managed to get it recorded professionally in a Tokyo studio, thanks largely to Japanese house artist Masmin.
After the recording however came a couple of weeks of meticulously planning what shots we'd need to cut together into a decent looking music video, which was perhaps the hardest part for me considering up till now I've been a stills photographer and have never storyboarded a moving image. So the experience of roughly visualizing the finished product was a really great experience. In the end the shot list was 3 pages, which ended up being revised, improvised on, cut and amended to kingdom-come on the two days that we shot. I'll post BTS videos / photos of the shoot if you guys are interested in seeing them!
As far as the gear went we used a Canon 5D MkII on a Steadicam Pilot for all the shots. Yuto Watanabe did the photography for the entire video and is responsible for the great camerawork and also chopping together the entire thing. The Steadicam + 5D MkII is a very potent combination that allows you to do an amazing range of shots, depending on the skills of the operator. I'm definitely a fan of their gear and plan to invest in a rig just as soon as I save up the requisite 500,000yen (~$5500) to own one 😀 Until then I'll keep renting at Ginichi.
For lights we rented two 4 foot 4-bulb Kinoflos, which were awesome for indoors, and amazingly easy to use. Plus, the light looks super nice (you can see the catchlights in my sunglasses). Lighting for video is definitely something I'm going to want to look into more, although I'm sure that it'll just make me have more gear envy, which is never good.
Anyway, enough waffling from me, enjoy the latest musical offering from the fictional Irwin W. and let me know in the comments if you're interested in the behind-the-scenes videos. Definitely keep an eye out for some music clips of HighISO's old work, I'm sure I should be able to dig it out from somewhere, although it might take a couple of months 😉
Hope you enjoy it!

" So here is the quick way of working out if you're a feminist. Put your hand in your pants.
a) Do you have a vagina? and
b) Do you want to be in charge of it?
If you said 'yes' to both, then congratulations!
You're a feminist."
— Caitlin Moran, author of How to Be a Woman
"Oh, we all know that guy," my friend Heather said to me on the phone. "He's the dude who took a women's-studies course in college and knew it all. He wore a 'Free Tibet' T-shirt and monopolized every conversation."
Heather and I were talking about a non-vagina-having, self-important troll named Randy Dotinga who told me via Twitter that I'm no feminist. This bloviating nitwit, who likes to police me when I criticize other women, apparently suffered apoplectic seizures after reading part of one sentence in my last column. The offending 13 words referencing a pair of local meteorologists and their painted-on clothing had him stomping his feet. It was pretty darned cute.
"A feminist who depicts women as bimbos is no feminist," he fired off, with the back-patting superiority of a third-grade know-it-all.
Of course, I didn't depict any women as bimbos or even use such language. Nor did I "dehumanize women on tv" as he put it, which is impossible since that's totally redundant. Kudos, though, to him for taking up the banner on behalf of the poor, demeaned television ladies among us. I wonder if he's actively fighting for them to get pay equal to that of men doing the same jobs. You know, since we women still earn less than our male counterparts, and women of color make even less than white women. But there I go again, bringing race into an otherwise pleasant conversation. You can just go ahead and discount me now.
To be clear, what I did do was point out what anyone without an Inspector Javert complex can plainly see is the on-trend über-sexualization of women in media, Rhodes Scholar Rachel Maddow being the refreshing exception.
To be clearer, being a feminist does not mean women aren't allowed to be critical of each other. And as an equalist, I have a long history of blasting men. Combine that with the fact that I've had sex with women and I should be guaranteed a lifetime membership in the Man Hating Lesbo Feminists Club—or, at the very least, one year of free dry cleaning so I can have all the collars on my button-down shirts permanently starched into an upright position.
It doesn't seem right to have my feminist card revoked by a dough-faced dude who fancies himself a hero to local women celebrities simply because I correctly point out the prancing, and hip swiveling, and coy smiling, and gentle head tilting so the always-long, Breck Girl hair spills over shoulders and onto barely covered breasts. Oh, how the patriarchy churns.
Does one fella get to be the decider about me? There are so many other reasons that my detractor might claim I'm not a feminist, if only he cared to know me better.
Obviously, I wear high heels—though less frequently as I'm getting older. I wear lingerie from time to time. I get my nails done, wear makeup, color my hair and have shared my personal evolution with regard to bikini waxing.
I don't run in a tutu, which has been a whole big controversy of late. But I do run while wearing Lady Danger lipstick and—horrors!—listening to early-'90s hip-hop. It turns out that running to Bonnie Raitt's "Nick of Time" is mileage-friendly only if you're running straight into a lake with small boulders in your pockets. Jay-Z's provocative "Bounce," on the other hand, will burn the tread off your new purple-and-pink shoes and any dust off your pussy. Can a feminist say such a thing? Can she wear purple and pink? Indeed she can.
Oh, my playlist—filled as it is with Tupac, Snoop, Dre, Biggie, Public Enemy and Jurassic 5, Missy Elliott, MC Lyte, Queen Latifah and Lil' Kim—it would give my critic the vapors. But I digress.
I do let my daughter listen to certain strains of hip-hop and discuss with her the problems inherent in it. I also let her play with dolls to which women in the media seem to be bearing an ever-more-frightening resemblance. And we discuss the problems inherent in that, too.
Feminism, as I see it, is all about choices and range. Write the unpopular opinion. Run that marathon in a skirt made of tulle. Chisel your nose or get a set of new boobs. Be darling in front of a green screen filled with low-pressure arrows. Be a pilot, a stripper, a driver in a monster-truck exhibition, a stay-at-home mother, a lone voice or part of a chorus. Do you have a vagina and want to be in control of it? Then you are a feminist, and no insecure dipwad dude can define you.
I think it's just peachy when (particularly white) men act, through the entitlement granted by nothing more than the penis between their legs—no matter how small it might be—to frame conversations and define terms and boundaries for women. It's so precious when they try to shout us down, talk in circles, make rhetorical arguments, assume expertise, tsk-tsk us and attempt to shame us into silence.
To my Twitter troll and all guys like him who should've shut the fuck up during women's studies, I respectfully say: Get over yourselves.

2017 BMW Z2 Rendered - In 2017, the BMW is rumored for the launch of the new roadster. Dubbed BMW Z2, basic roadster aims to bring back the philosophy behind the original Z3 Roadster. Perhaps the two seats and the most interesting variations of new BMW roadster compact platform. Lightweight and compact, this tutorial aims to provide agile and dynamic, different Z4, will feature fabric. There is a bitter pill of BMW fans would have to swallow: the Z2 is a front wheel drive vehicle and thus brother near Tourer racing activated 2-series and the new Mini Hardtop. In recent decades, there are a number of fun little car there with front wheel drive Fiat Barchetta: nice; final generation two Alfa Romeo spider; and of course the Mini Roadster. They are fun, but not associated with greatness. Perhaps BMW Z2 can change that.
2017 BMW Z2 Rendered2017 BMW Z2 will bring some unique features found the Z4, but it is essentially a different product. Firstly, the Z2 is a front wheel drive vehicles, and secondly, will show the soft top versus hardtop in current roadster. Z2 says that a broader remedy and aims to bring in a new generation of buyers to the brand. In some respects, this car will be exactly what the fans, no gimmicks, like the heavy and complex Z4 retractable hardtop mechanism driving the compact machine. The design of the most serious new Z2 will be wider than the Mini Roadster retro cute appeal. And Z2 can help reconcile BMW traditionalists with brand strategy to push forward with the front wheel drive model. In addition, this car could bring a whole new generation of buyers to the brand, and we'll bet that BMW has fingers crossed at that moment.
BMW Z2 sharing the platform with the new Mini Hardtop and Mini any model that will come. A version of the platform extension supports Active Tourer racing derivatives of the 2 series and seven-seater that will come, and will also form the basis for the next generation series 1. With more focus on lightweight construction, giant Z2 may be not much more than 2500 pounds.
2017 BMW Z2 Engine2017 BMW Z2 will be offered by the number three and four-cylinder BMW engine modular architecture; we believe that BMW adhere to the four-bangers, ranging from about 160 horsepower, higher level versions are rated around 230 horsepower. In addition, there may be M Z2 which will create less than 300 horsepower, which is distributed to all four wheels. Potentially, BMW offers turbo 1.5-liter three-cylinder as an entry-level option.
The provisions of the terdapa on the photo is Theophilus Chin in based on the concept of the BMW Zagato Roadster, reducing the front and rear part of the projection, the wheelbase, width and height of the shoulder. Zagato Roadster style front and rear is adjusted to suit the new more compact forms.

text: Lately, I have been learning a lot about reaching the postmodern generation for Christ. In order for Christians to reach those with the postmodern/relativism view, they must get into the lives of those people. They do this by being familiar with the music, literature and icons of the postmodern generation. This is necessary because we have to know what this generation is being fed in the media. Knowing what the postmodern generation believes helps the Christian to know exactly how to share the gospel with those who do not believe in any absolute truth. I used to think that getting involved with postmodern media was just a waste of time and was not necessary to witness. However, I now see the point of seeing exacatly where people are at and why they reject Christianity. What better way to reach a person for Christ than to show them concern for their beliefs. Although I see the need to be familiar with the media and secular worldviews, God also calls Christians to be holy and blameless in the world. Basically, I am wondering where to draw the line between knowing what is in the world and staying away from evil. Since God calls us to witness to a world that disobeys him, it takes careful planning on the Christian's part to be familiar while not being involved.

The wond'ring world inquires to know
Why I should love my Jesus so:
What are his charms," say they, "above
The objects of a mortal love?"
Yes! my Beloved, to my sight
Shows a sweet mixture, red and white:
All human beauties, all divine,
In my Beloved meet and shine.
White is his soul, from blemish free;
Red with the blood he shed for me;
The fairest of ten thousand fairs;
A sun amongst ten thousand stars.
[His head the finest gold excels;
There wisdom in perfection dwells,
And glory like a crown adorns
Those temples once beset with thorns.
Compassions in his heart are found,
Hard by the signals of his wound:
His sacred side no more shall bear
The cruel scourge, the piercing spear.]
[His hands are fairer to behold
Than diamonds set in rings of gold;
Those heav'nly hands, that on the tree
Were nailed, and torn, and bled for me!
Though once he bowed his feeble knees,
Loaded with sins and agonies,
Now on the throne of his command
His legs like marble pillars stand.]
[His eyes are majesty and love,
The eagle tempered with the dove;
No more shall trickling sorrows roll
Through those dear windows of his soul.
His mouth, that poured out long complaints,
Now smiles and cheers his fainting saints
His countenance more graceful is
Than Lebanon with all its trees.]
All over glorious is my Lord
Must be beloved, and yet adored;
His worth if all the nations knew,
Sure the whole earth would love him too.

Orlando, FL (PRWEB) January 13, 2014
After returning to his hometown in Central Florida following his meteoric run on NBC's #1 summer show "America's Got Talent," world-renowned tenor Fernando Varela will make his debut performance in Winter Park, FL on Friday, January 31 at the Trinity Preparatory Auditorium at 8pm. A long-time resident of Orlando, Varela's tenor trio Forte took America by storm making it to the finals and placing 4th overall out of the 75,000 acts that auditioned for the popular television show. Minutes after the finale, Forte was signed by Columbia Records, and their self-titled album was released this past November.
Presented by Trinity Prep Patrons of the Arts as part of the 2014 Ethel S. Danhof Fine Arts Series, Danhof, the series namesake, is thrilled to have Fernando take the Trinity Prep stage. "I have known Fernando for many years since the time he participated in VOICExperience, the summer program where I was on stage," Danhof says. "We are fortunate that Fernando lives in the Orlando area and will be able to kick off the year with us, and we look forward to a wonderful evening of music."
Varela is looking forward to performing in the intimate 800-seat auditorium and will sing across various musical genres for the unforgettable show. "There's nothing like returning to your roots to do what you love most in front of the very people from the community where things got started," says Varela. "After the wave of excitement from this past year and the incredible journey I am so fortunate to have been on, I am looking forward to performing on the Trinity stage and hope that the people of Central Florida will come out to hear me and support this wonderful organization in the arts."
Varela has kept up a sizzling pace over the past year, highlighted by debut performances with the National Symphony Orchestra at The Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington, D.C., Carnegie Hall, Radio City Music Hall in New York City and singing for President Barack Obama at The White House.
Varela has drawn critical acclaim while touring the world both on his own and with music legend David Foster. Foster, a 16-time Grammy Award winner, recently said of Fernando, "You are my secret weapon. There's no one in the world that can do what you do." Also, after a recent performance, singing icon Barbra Streisand said of Varela, "I think you're going to be a big star. Why you aren't singing at the Met is beyond me."
As part of the Danhof Fine Arts Series, Varela will also conduct a master class for students to be held at the school this Thursday, January 16. Trinity Prep's January 31 concert with Fernando Varela will feature Varela's live band and some special guests. Tickets can be purchased online at http://www.TrinityPrep.org/Buy-Tickets. The Trinity Preparatory School Auditorium is located at 5700 Trinity Prep Lane, Winter Park, FL 32792.

While I wish that HTC was popping the cork on the 'Hero' here in the land of smiles, at least we're getting some love: they're having a couple of shindigs here to get Thailand's techies interested in Android in general, and the HTC Magic in particular. AIS, a cellular carrier here, is co-sponsoring the event. You can register for either event at the HTC Thailand website (note - it's in Thai, but you can view a Google-translated version here).
Okay, details! According to the email (also in Thai, natch):
"HTC is pleased to invite you to experience the world-class Android mobile OS with the HTC Magic on August 1 - 2 from 1:00 pm until 6:00 pm at the Digital Arena (4th floor), in the "Digital Gateway @ Siam" center [Kirk's note: this is the building that looks like a giant coke-bottle when seen from the Siam BTS upper-platform], and on August 9th from 1:00 pm until 6:00 pm at the Century Tara Hotel ballroom in Chiang Mai."
*note - yes, that's a Vodafone Magic pictured.
Google Image search for her... For the Thai-literate, her name is อภิษฎา เครือคงคา (Thai people all have nicknames, her's is "Ice"). So it's a safe bet that the place will be crawling with young, male techies...
Moving on! The event will have workshops on Android, the Android Marketplace, and using the HTC Magic. Attendees will have a chance to win their very own Magic, or (for the rest of us) to buy one for the promo price of 21,900 Baht (about $644, unlocked, no contract required). To soften the blow, it comes with an AIS SIM card (from their pre-paid "One-2-Call" brand) with 30 hours of talk-time preloaded. To even further soften the blow, you can pay in interest-free (for 6 months) installments using your KTC, CitiBank, or Krung Sri GE card, if you're packing one. And yes - GE is that GE.... long-tentacled beast.
So if you're in Thailand, or needed a good reason to come (as if), come check out HTC's not-quite-latest Android smartphone. Or just come ogle Miss Apitsada. Either way!

I HATE TO LEAVE THIS BEAUTIFUL PLACE. By Howard Norman. Houghton Mifflin Harcourt. 194 pages. $26.
"What good is intelligence if you cannot discover a useful melancholy?"
Toward the close of his rather exasperating memoir, novelist Howard Norman quotes this passage from the work of Ryunosuke Akutagawa to illustrate the tension he feels when contemplating sadness and joy. Joy being, in Norman's estimation, "a reliable, compelling — and yes, at times even transcendent — duet between a melancholy natural to my character and irony."
Such expressions give one a ready clue as to the tenor of this literate, observant but sometimes irritating series of vignettes by the two-time National Book Award nominee for fiction.
Norman has found melancholy in all its shadings. And it is frequently a wallow. He is a novelist with a poet's sensibility, which cuts both ways. His glimpses of the natural world can be lovely: sanderlings forage a beach with their bills "as if trying to stitch in place the wavering margin between tide and beach," a pale moon over a marsh is "borrowed for the night from a Japanese scroll," a cat's growling purr courses down its body like "a gentle seismic wave."
But his take on humanity's daily life is somewhat less engaging. Not every mundane happening is as freighted with meaning as the author would have it. Norman reports what he had for lunch as if it were a talisman of deepest significance.
All too indicative of the book is the title piece, an account of his experiences living among the Inuit during his 20s while working for the Arctic Oral History Project. What might have been a revealing look at that culture is in fact deadened with banality. It is one thing to relate the varied rituals and beliefs of a people and to respect their role in how societies evolve and function. But it is quite another to take the most preposterous superstitions seriously, as Norman appears to have done, and not to have realized it in later years.
Indeed, "I Hate to Leave This Beautiful Place" is shot through with the author's own quaint, suggestive delusions: seeing "ghosts," being persecuted by maniacal shamans, forging "connections" where none exist. He also wants to have it both ways, curtly dismissing the notion of clairvoyant powers in those he considers disagreeable.
He also abhors platitudes, yet dispenses armies of his own.
The most absorbing part of the book is "Grey Geese Descending," involving his halting love affair with a free-spirited young woman in Halifax, Nova Scotia, and his relationship with an adopted "uncle" there. These passages harbor genuine insight and poignancy, however undermined they are by the repeated narrative digressions to which Norman succumbs.
Yet it is in the final section, "Kingfisher Days," a wrenching account of a murder and suicide, that Norman's overworked sensitivity finally compels us to cry "Enough!" It is not the tragic deaths that occurred in the Normans' Washington, D.C. home while they were summering in Vermont, but rather the family's extreme reaction to it that confounds.
Certainly, one can never know how one will respond unless it happens to you — and this is not to minimize the shock of such an event — but Norman scarcely knew the mother and son who were living in his house, and his depiction of his family's year-long (and more) "recovery" from its aftermath of their deaths smacks of disproportionate self-indulgence and melodrama.
Watching the film "M" 30 times to try to gain insight into child murder? Insisting on making sense of senseless acts? Pondering, morosely, the aesthetics of death? Having "formal hallucinations" of shadow-plays at his doorstep? Enduring "an ongoing vigil against despair ... falling apart, gathering, falling apart"? Jetting off cross-country to "lose myself among the birds ... to empty out mentally and physically, then get filled again"? This gets more than a little labored.
If he has succeeded in connecting these "incidents of arresting strangeness" that suffuse the five (choppily composed) sections of this book, as kudos for it insist, that connection is tenuous at best.
There are too many disjointed elements, too many asides that are apropos of nothing. And too many tedious ruminations altogether for so slender a volume.
Reviewer Bill Thompson is a writer and editor based in Charleston.

Bahaa, mAulenc4gC0
I am in the process of a dirvcoe/separation from a 29 yr. marriage. I find forgiveness very difficult for my stbx because he is not honest and he is greedy. To have him admit to his actions and to apologize will never happen. I am deeply hurt, like I can't live with him, and can't live without him. To add insult to injury, we have two son's that are gay. My son's came out to me when they reached the puberty age. I love them dearly and nothing will change. I often joke with them and call them Pearl. It shocked me when I found out they were gay-just because. So now, with stbx not admitting he is gay or is it bisexual, or hidden man whore- I am having a big time problem with him wanting blood from a stone. As I read article after article, I still have mixed feelings about forgiveness. I feel he needs to earn his forgiveness. Ex: apologize first of all, be fair with the split of the belongings, and don't humiliate me and say I am crazy. I find that going out on a date with a women in public to prove a point will really hurt me. He is gay and doesn't want to come out, I get it. BUT, in the mean time, don't make me the victim. What to do?(27th November 10:15, 2015)Reply

International humanitarian organization, Doctors of the World has launched the 20th edition of the Luis Valtueña International Humanitarian Photography Award; a prize that strives to denounce the reality of vulnerable communities suffering from human rights infringements in cities across the world. The award was created as a tribute to, and in recognition of, Luis Valtueña, Flors Sirera, Manuel Madrazo, and Mercedes Navarro, all of whom were Doctors of the World aid workers who died performing their duties. "Their memory serves to ensure that each year victims of injustice are brought to light. Give them a voice through your gaze" declare the coordinators. Applicants must submit a maximum of 10 photographs – either a series or distinct individual images – that must relate to the following themes: humanitarian action, international cooperation, social exclusion, human rights violations, armed conflicts, natural disasters, refugee and immigrant populations, or socially excluded groups. Only photos taken between January 2015 and October 2016 are eligible. The prize winner will receive a grant worth €6,000 that will cover the production of a project that must be comprised of at least 50 photographs, and a 30 minute video, related to the work of Doctors of the World. The submission deadline is November 11th. To apply, visit medicosdelmundo.es/premioluisvaltuena.

TARRYTOWN, N.Y. — Happy Rockefeller stands on the summit of the Pocantico Hills estate in the late October sunshine. It is the site of a genuine love story--her own. She came here as a bride in May, 1963, to marry then-governor Nelson Rockefeller.
The main house, called Kykuit, is now a national landmark--which may eventually open to the public. It is filled with art and with furnishings from Chippendale to Sheraton. But the family is gone and Happy Rockefeller`s life has changed.
