Introduction to Bright Scythe: Selected Poems by Tomas Tranströmer, tr. Patty Crane
The great subject of the poetry of Sweden's Tomas Tranströmer—it sometimes seems as though it is his only subject—is liminality. He is a poet almost helplessly drawn to enter and inhabit those in-between states that form the borderlines between waking and sleeping, the conscious and the unconscious, ecstasy and terror, the public self and the interior self. Again and again his poems allude to border checkpoints, boundaries, crossroads: they teeter upon thresholds of every sort—be they the brink of sleep or the brink of death, a door about to open or a door about to close. And these thresholds are often ensorcelled places, where a stone can miraculously pass through a window and leave it undamaged; where the faces of what seem to be all of humanity suddenly appear to the speaker on a motel wall, "pushing through oblivion's white walls / to breathe, to ask for something" ("The Gallery"). Indeed, in one of his finest individual collections, called Sanningsbarriären in its original Swedish and The Truth Barrier in most English translations, he concocts a neologism which perfectly encapsulates his lifelong fixation with the liminal.
Yet this inhabitant of borderlands and denizen of thresholds is also deeply suspicious of binaries and dichotomies, of Manichaeism in any form. In Tranströmer's universe, conditions are too much in flux, too subject to sudden and radical change, to ever permit dualistic thinking: every emotion can without warning turn into its opposite; every perception of what A. N. Whitehead called "the withness of the body" can turn into an out-of-the-body experience; and visionary moments are possible but always fraught. Witness Patty Crane's rendering of a later Tranströmer poem, "Like Being a Child":
Like being a child and an enormous insult
is pulled over your head like a sack;
through the sack's stitches you catch a glimpse of the sun
and hear the cherry trees humming.
But this doesn't help, the great affront
covers your head and torso and knees
and though you move sporadically
you can't take pleasure in the spring.
Yes, shimmering wool hat, pull it down over the face
and stare through the weave.
On the bay, water-rings teem soundlessly.
Green leaves are darkening the land.
This is, I suppose, Tranströmer's canny way of expressing Keats's concept of negative capability. Tranströmer is certainly a man who, in Keats's memorable phrase, is "capable of being in uncertainties, Mysteries, doubts." And yet he differs from Keats insofar as he sees this state not as a goal for the poet to aspire to, but as inevitable—and inevitably anxiety-provoking. In fact, he sees this condition as our fate in contemporary society.
Despite this, Tranströmer is a poet of astonishment rather than dread; his forays into the unknown and the self-annihilating are ones from which the speaker always returns, relatively unscathed. Because of his interest in the realm of dream, and his unerring ability to fashion surprising and original metaphors, he has often been labeled a surrealist. But his poems are shorn of surrealism's romantic privileging of randomness and the unconscious. Although his work abounds in visionary moments, he examines them as a scientist would—not rhapsodically, and certainly not as some sort of magus or shaman. For many years the poet was employed as a child psychologist in his native Sweden, and even when he describes conditions of great emotional and psychological duress, he does so with the nonplussed detachment of a man in a lab coat jotting down notes on a clipboard. His stance is the epitome of grace under pressure. "Madrigal," another late poem translated by Crane, is prototypical Tranströmer, both in its themes and its approach:
I inherited a dark forest where I seldom walk. But there will come a day when the dead and the living change places. Then the forest will be set into motion. We aren't without hope. The most difficult crimes remain unsolved despite the efforts of many police. In the same way that somewhere in our lives there's a great unsolved love. I inherited a dark forest but today I walk in another forest, the light one. Every living thing that sings wriggles sways and crawls! It's spring and the air is intense. I have a degree from the university of oblivion and I'm as empty-handed as the shirt on the clothesline.
Tomas Tranströmer began publishing poetry in the 1950s, and although the body of his work is rather small, there is a unity and uniform standard of excellence in his verse that recalls that of Elizabeth Bishop: the poems are all of a piece, and none of them are minor or self-imitative. With the poet's death this year at the age of eighty-three (just four years after he was at long last awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature), the world lost one of its greatest living poets—if not the greatest. Tranströmer has of course found many readers in America. Beginning in the 1970s, his work has been translated by a number of figures, most notably May Swenson, Robert Bly, and Scotland's Robin Fulton, all poets themselves. Patty Crane makes her entrée into these distinguished ranks with fresher, more spontaneous diction and a nuanced ear for Tranströmer's mellifluous but astringent music. Crane's translations, many of them done in collaboration with Tranströmer and his wife Monica, are tautly rendered, imagistically acute, and elegantly cadenced. They offer American readers a Tranströmer befitting our new century.
Furthermore, Crane's selection is a judicious and representative one. It includes some of the poet's lesser-known early efforts; his ambitious long poem Baltics—a small-scale epic, reminiscent of works such as Lorine Niedecker's "Lake Superior" and Basil Bunting's "Briggflatts"—and, above all, it includes Tranströmer's final individual collection, The Sorrow Gondola (1996), in its entirety. This is the poet's most subtle and elegiac book. In 1990 Tranströmer suffered a debilitating stroke that left him partially paralyzed, and impaired his powers of speech. The book's title poem, completed shortly before the poet's stroke, is one of his most haunting efforts. Like Baltics, the poem's method is juxtapositional, alternating sections devoted to the relationship between the dying Richard Wagner and his father-in-law, Franz Liszt, with vignettes drawn from the poet's own life and dream-life. The poem is majestic and melancholy, and seems in some eerily unconscious way to foreshadow the poet's own encounter with disability. The poem's final two sections are classic Tranströmer. We first see Liszt composing and playing the piano sonata which gives the poem its title, and the section is stately and sinister by turns. The final section, brusque and fragmented, relates an ominous dream:
The clavier, which kept silent through all of Parsifal (but listened),
finally has something to say.
Sighs ... sospiri ...
When Liszt plays tonight he holds the sea-pedal pressed down
so the ocean's green force rises up through the floor and flows
together with all the stone in the building.
Good evening, beautiful deep!
The gondola is heavy-laden with life, it is simple and black.
Dreamt I was supposed to start school but arrived too late.
Everyone in the room was wearing a white mask.
Whoever the teacher was, no one could say.
How wondrous these lines are! The hallmarks of Tranströmer's method are abundantly in evidence: the unsettling anthropomorphism of the clavier finally having "something to say," the conflation of Liszt's music with the relentless power of the sea, and a dream that seems meant to instruct but instead ends in enigma. And yet, within this mixture of moody atmospherics and uncertainty comes the wonderfully bracing line that seems to me the most crucial in the poem, "Good evening, beautiful deep!"
For readers encountering Tranströmer for the first time, Crane's translation will be an ideal introduction to an indispensable poet. For readers who already know Tranströmer, this collection will remind them yet again that he is a writer of immense originality and depth, who among the poets of the last century has only a handful of equals.

Individual living space connected with the working space. Organizing customised programme and study visits in Warsaw and beyond.
They do not accept direct applications for residency. Residents are selected only on the basis of curatorial invitation and partner institutions' recommendations which has been positively evaluated by the U-jazdowski Residencies team and invited experts. Those interested can try applying to the relevant partners, if one is eligible. Open calls are held irregularly and announced on the Ujazdowski Castle website and their Facebook page.
U–jazdowski Residencies (former A-I-R Laboratory) is a meeting place, a workshop, a house, a space for artistic and curatorial activities. They are looking for new forms of intercultural and international cooperation and the exchange of experience in the field of art, constantly re-defining the understanding of the concept of artistic residency and the role of artists-in-residence in a modern institution of culture. While working for the Ujazdowski Castle Centre for Contemporary Art, at the same time they are striving to offer artists staying with them the possibility of going beyond the gallery, beyond the concept of the exhibition as a method of communicating art.
They support the development of international bonds between artists, curators and researchers and promote the idea of the mobility of artists and art professionals in Poland and widely understood Eastern Europe. At the same time, the works of residents and curators of the U–jazdowski Residencies are deeply entrenched in the local context of Warsaw, on many layers they map and enter into a dialogue with the city, involving its inhabitants in the creation process. They encourage cooperation between the foreign artists staying with them and the Warsaw artistic and scientific circles. Throughout the democratically structured workshops, discussion panels and meetings, the residents share their knowledge and skills with various groups of viewers.
Since the U–jazdowski Residencies was established in 2002, they have accommodated in Warsaw more than one hundred and fifty artists from the whole world, and have participated in prestigious residential programs and cooperated with a number of the most important foreign institutions, galleries and art festivals. They independently run long-term international projects and each of them consists not only of artistic tasks, but also of a general reflection on the essence of a contemporary residency: Rooted Design (2008-2010), Re-tooling Residencies (2009-2011), Re-directing East (since 2013), Blue Box (2015-2016) and Social Design for Social Living (2015-2016). Among their partners are Akademie Schloss Solitude, Flemish Arts and Heritage Agency, Mondriaan Founds, Videobrasil, Pro Helvetia, Res Artis, Dutch Culture | TransArtists, Gasworks, ACME, Residency Unlimited, Adam Mickiewicz Institute. The activities of U–jazdowski Residencies are supported by the City of Warsaw.
Exhibition, show, lecture.
Tha accomodation is also based in the Ujazdowski Castle Building.
At present, the U-jazdowski Residencies can host up to seven artists at one time in studios located within the Ujazdowski Castle and in the adjacent laboratory building, which was opened in 2010. Each studio consists of a living space with a kitchenette and a bathroom. Additionally, all inhabitants can use a shared kitchen, a working room with basic woodwork tools, and a computer workshop.

Nicki Minaj, Alicia Keys, Donna Karan, and Vera Wang walk into a bar. That's not the beginning of a joke, it's just the scene at Rick Owens, where the Palais de Tokyo's cavernous rave cave was flipped into an austere fashion show space.
"I've always thought of runway shows as contemporary ceremonies," Owens says, referencing religious cultures like Ancient Egypt (for the giant animal ears), Greek Orthodoxy (for the priest hats). There were also hooded veils that were pretty much sweatshirt burkas.
"I always say, if I didn't wear me, I'd wear Rick," Karan told us from the front row. "In the beginning, when he first came out, I was a little bit struck by our similar style," she laughed. "But his evolution has been incredible and I think he's brilliant, the kind of artist we really need in the fashion world." (What don't we need in the fashion world? "Any more delays from the runway to the store," Karan said. "I always say, I don't show, I sell… customers want what they see in a fashion show immediately. Like right this second. We've got to provide that for them and too many labels still haven't gotten the message." Karan has—her new line, Urban Zen, is for sale immediately.)
To her point, Owens is one of the few designers to offer every single thing on his runway for sale in his store—which means if Nicki Minaj wants a sweatshirt burka, she just has to hit North LaBrea Avenue the next time she's in LA.

Built in 1917 for use with draft horses, the Big Yellow Barn is a local landmark. Situated seven miles north of Bozeman on Springhill Road, the barn is visible for miles.
While still sticking close to its agricultural roots, the barn has been renovated to be the perfect venue for your event—whether you want to take advantage of the warm sunshine on the west side of the barn, run in the green expanse or enjoy the majestic views of the Bridger Mountains.
The main indoor meeting area is the second floor of the barn. The area can comfortably seat over two hundred guests for a formal dinner and is perfect for dancing. The area also serves as an excellent retreat from the outdoors should the weather turn inclement.
Ample parking is available a short walk from the barn, and some choose to use chartered bus services from area hotels.
Please contact us if you would like to schedule an appointment to see this beautiful venue or if you have any questions about the facility, pricing, or availability. We look forward to hearing from you!

The Woodstock Festival happened this time of the year, back in 1969. Led Zeppelin had been together only since a year before- having formed in London in 1968. They were asked to perform, but their manager, Peter Grant, said: "We were asked to do Woodstock, and our record company was very keen, and so was our American promoter, Frank Barsalona. I said no, because at Woodstock, we'd have been just another band on the bill."
The band did play in July of 69, at the first Atlanta International Pop Festival, as one of 22 bands at the two day event. Woodstock weekend, Zeppelin performed at the Asbury Park Convention Hall in New Jersey. They took time out to attend Elvis' show at the International Hotel in Las Vegas, on August 12. It was a busy time for the new band, but they never played Woodstock.
This Fall, Robert Plant will join an 80th birthday concert celebration for former Rolling Stones co-founder Bill Wyman. Bill Wyman, with his then group, the Rhythm Kings appeared on a bill with Robert Plant and Led Zeppelin at a tribute concert in 2007, at the O2 in London. They're still a bunch of very active musicians even now.
More Led Zeppelin every Tuesday night at 9pm, as we GET THE LED OUT.
What a Band.

Facebook rarely goes down, and when it does it tends to do so for minutes rather than hours. However, with many more than 1 billion users, Facebook is one of the cornerstones of the Internet 7 Most Important Websites We Can't Live Without 7 Most Important Websites We Can't Live Without The World Wide Web (now more commonly known simply as the Web) has been with us for over 20 years now, and in that relatively short space of time it has unequivocally changed the world....

Read More . And panic. And mass hysteria.
With that in mind, we want to know how you cope when Facebook goes down. Or whether you feel that "cope" is far too strong a word for this mild inconvenience. Welcome to this week's MakeUseOf Poll.
To answer this week's question please scroll down the page until you see the poll staring back at you. But first, we need to look at the results from last week, when we asked, "Which New Apple Product Has You Most Excited?"
Out of a total of 516 votes, 33.3% chose None of the Above!, 21.7% chose the iPad Pro, 16.5% chose the new Apple TV, 11.2% chose the iPhone 6s, 7% chose the iPhone 6s Plus, 5.8% chose the Apple Pencil, 1.6% chose the new Apple Watch, and 2.9% chose Other.
These results show that a significant percentage of our readership simply isn't interested in any of the new products Apple recently unveiled. However, of those that are interested, the iPad Pro Why The iPad Pro Isn't Just A Bigger iPad Why The iPad Pro Isn't Just A Bigger iPad If you think the new iPad Pro is "just a bigger iPad", you're wrong.

Comment of the Week
We received a few good comments, but this question didn't really prompt the response we thought it would. Still, Comment Of The Week goes to "likefun butnot", who earns our admiration and affection for this comment Which New Apple Product Has You Most Excited? [MakeUseOf Poll] Which New Apple Product Has You Most Excited? [MakeUseOf Poll] Even without the hype, some of the new Apple products might just be worth getting excited about. And we want to know which one has your pulse racing. Read More :
The new AppleTV compares unfavorably with the less expensive 2014 version of the Amazon FireTV, let alone the updated model that will be available in a couple weeks.
The ipad Pro and Pencil are clones of products available in the Windows and Android ecosystems that are additionally hampered by an operating system fundamentally incompatible with productivity software due to lack of filesystem access or a fully functional equivalent. If your definition of work can be accomplished entirely by access to web pages, by remote access to a more functional computer or in a single document editor, that's great, but there are cheaper devices you could use to achieve the same results.
There's nothing particularly interesting about another generation of new Apple phones. I'm glad they finally made one with a large screen, but that didn't happen in this hardware generation, it's just a refinement of an existing product.
And the watch? It's a smartwatch. It has crummy battery life and more of the same dubious utility as every other smartwatch. Yay.
The only thing Apple has done in the last few years that I'm willing to credit is finally adding goddamned lowercase keys to the display on it on-screen keyboard.
We chose this comment because it gives a fine, and (some would say) overly harsh assessment of the new crop of Apple devices. We think it's safe to say this particular commenter isn't a fan of the guys from Cupertino. But if you are then please do check out our iOS section and our Mac section for a more positive take on the latest Apple goings-on.
Down With Facebook!
Facebook went down briefly for several minutes last week. And if the number of tweets mentioning the brief downtime are anything to go by, the whole world noticed this slight inconvenience. The world didn't end, no one died, and everything was back up and running in the time it takes to brew a nice cup of coffee 8 Excellent Websites for an Improved Cup of Coffee 8 Excellent Websites for an Improved Cup of Coffee Coffee is loved all over the world, but some coffee tastes better than others. Want a tastier dose of caffeine? Here are some sites that'll help you get started. Read More .
However, it made us realize that perhaps we're missing something here. Perhaps Facebook going down IS a big deal. And what better way to find out the truth than to poll our readers. After all, we know you're all beautiful people, but even the best of us is capable of acting irrationally on occasion.
So, we simply want to know, "What Do You Do When Facebook Is Down?"
Once you have voted in the poll above, please explain in the comments section below why you voted that way. Do you actively avoid Facebook like the plague and therefore not even notice when it's down? Or do you always notice the downtime and panic that Facebook is gone forever?
The more information you can provide with your comment, the more accurate our conclusions can be based on the results. The best comment of the week will win our everlasting admiration and affection. At least until we all meet back here again this time next week with a new question.

"What Do You Do When Facebook Is Down?"
Sing hosannas and pray to Steve Jobs that it stays down permanently.
Are we goldfish?
Use G+ or Twitter!
I selected other for two reasons.
Facebook has just stopped working as I type this.... What does MUO know that the rest of us don't?!?!?!?
Firstly: I logged on to MUO via my G+ account (see, it DOES have it's uses!)
Secondly: Make the wife a hot cup of tea and tell her to stop panicking. Candy Crush will still be there in the morning.
Being over 35, Facebook is a tool I only use to keep in touch with friends since I moved away 5 years ago.
Other than that, I have very little need for it as a social network.
I am still an avid user of G+ and rely on Twitter for keeping upto date with the events of the day (it's also how I found out Facebook wasn't working)
I check out Facebook daily but I'm not tethered to it. If it goes down, I do something else. I still like Solitaire, I found a really good online one and also Jigsaw puzzles. Or read something interesting like someone's blog. Lots of stuff out there to check out.
I had no idea Facebook was down. I do use Facebook. I don't use it a lot and I guess it was down while I was traveling so I never encountered that it was down.
Rejoice because the internet is temporarily less insecure.
What is the facebook?
Continue using Google+ like any other sane person.
Pornhub /thread
I usually write a blues tune. I mean, what else am I supposed to do?
Use a decent social network.
I don't use FB. But I do use sarcasm.
"Facebook is down. What are we going to do Brain?"
"The same thing we do every night Pinkie. Anything other than Facebook."
What do I do when Facebook is down?
The same thing I do every other day, aside from reading a few wacky posts by the few people I follow. (I don't mind missing Facebook very much).

AbstractDesperately wanting his "mom" back, Fitzhugh managed (throughout season 2) to gather the components for a spell to bring her back to him. All that was needed was to speak the ritual... and he knew just the humans to do it for him.
SummaryFitzhugh arranged for the Heroes to cast the spell for him, but it went ever so slightly wrong, ripping open a portal into a Shadow version of our world, one where the Heroes had failed to prevent the weather apocalypse. Or rather, it went exactly right, because Fitz had come from that shadow world, and by opening the portal, he made it possible for his Ellen to reclaim him. His appearance in our world was the result of the "other" group attempting to travel back in time to correct their error and save the world after all.

Monitor suggestions?
I am finally going to replace my two Viewsonic VP17" computer monitors. I would like to hear what others are using or suggestions as to what to get. I prefer nothing larger than 20-22". I have M100 HDe. I am not replacing my video monitor just yet, it is an older (5 years) JVC with 750 lines resolution and I've been quite happy with it. I am purchasing the new monitors before year end.
Thank you and Happy Holidays!
Boy....quite a can of worms here.
And a tough one to answer...which is probably why you haven't seen any responses on this query.
In my opinion, it seems most manufacturers (outside of Apple) seem to be changing their offerings/specs/model numbers every few months or so. It would be very difficult from what I have seen to make any specific recommendations---because anything I would recommend based on my recent purchases--is probably not available today. Our Apple displays have been good to us, but for the price we spent...similar specs are available today for less money than we paid a few years ago.
That stated....
Two factors you may want to consider when evaluating LCD displays for purchase are RESPONSE time (usually rated in milliseconds) and BRIGHTNESS (usually rated in nits).
Simply stated lower response times and higher brightness levels are generally better.
Response time is how quickly the display reacts to incoming data.
(The finite physics of electricity acting on individual elements in the LCD...and how quickly the elements can react to repolarize the light passing through to display the desired information.)
Older slower LCD's created the illusion of "loss of audio sync" when editing video...because they responded too slow to incoming data. (The older displays we had had 30-50ms response times.) The display was ALWAYS behind the audio.
Newer displays (with 5-9 ms response times) are better about this.
Brighter displays offer you a wider range of viewing situations without "washing out"...from sunlit room to darkened edit suite. Simply stated brighter is usually better.
Sticking with a major manufacturer often helps, but there are a lot of quality displays out there under lesser known names...
There are other issues and details to consider if you are really into prepress or color integrity...but these things don't affect the majority of users...so I won't bore you with such finite and utterly neurotic details.
Hopefully some others might have opinions on this as well...
Good luck.

Thanks Chris for you input. I was all set to purchase two Eizo monitors, but have decided to wait until the Macworld Conference to see what the next Apple Display will be. Eizo ColorEdge 21" is twice the price as Apple, but response time is faster, higher brightness and better contrast. I also do a fair amount of work in Photoshop, but editing is first. My Viewsonic VP171b's were a pretty good choice 5 years ago with 8ms response time, .264 pixel pitch, but, brightness is only 300. So, I'm ready to upgrade to slighter larger size 20-22", and still use two monitors. There are SO many choices and it comes down to cost and what works for each individual. I'm just curious what others like or dislike.
Just as an afterthought...based on your response.
I ran dual monitor setups on our M100 systems for years until Apple came out with the 30".
Everyone in our shop now prefers a single 30" to the dual 22" setups we ran previously.
FYI-In addition to M100, we also do a LOT of After Effects. The large single display has proven less tedious over a long day. Other opinions will in this forum may differ, but those whose weekly paychecks I sign all politely nod in agreement with me... (funny how that works...)

I bought ql strat largely based on the demo. It talked about lots of control and sounded Amazing- particularly the distorted sounds. When it arrived I realized there were NO distorted sounds included- and it must be painstakingly edited if I would like a useable distorted guitar, and also I cant find a distortion plugin to recreate the demo sounds. on top of that the the harmonics are inconsistent- some have much more noticable fundamental soundings than others to the point where I cant make an even passage- some particularly bad ones- the b right below middle c at the highest vel., the f# and G above middle c at the highest vel level. These stick out to the point of making the harmonics in general unusuable. (The tunings between velocity layers are also inconsistent but at least I can fix that....) Also alot of the samples generally seem to have glitches in them. Is there any way that there could possibly be a art file made available to fix these things? especially to get the distorted samples that sold me on the discs in the first place? I would be very content with this product If I could just recreate that demo with little effort and if the samples were consistent. I would also be more then likely to be a future customer and positive word of mouth if there was an active reponse to this post with .art files fixing the harmonics and including the distorted samples.
thanks for your time and concern,

Inter routed at home by last-place Cagliari
MILAN (AP): Inter Milan suffered a humiliating first defeat of the season as they were routed 4-1 by last-placed Cagliari in Serie A yesterday, while Napoli won to ease the pressure on coach Rafa Benitez.
Cagliari had lost their last three matches but gained an advantage when Inter captain Yuto Nagatomo was sent off in the 27th minute following two yellow cards.
Albin Ekdal, who had scored three goals in 87 appearances for Cagliari, doubled his tally for the club with a 15-minute hat-trick.
It would have been worse for Inter if Samir Handanovic had not saved a penalty.
"I made some mistakes when evaluating the squad rotation," Inter coach Walter Mazzarri said. "When we were down to 10 men we should have acted differently: an experienced team would've sat back, not conceded four in the first half and tried to come back in the second."
In the evening match, Sampdoria beat Genoa 1-0 in an entertaining and fiery derby match. The result saw Samp move into third ahead of Udinese's home game against Parma today.
Napoli won 1-0 at Sassuolo in the lunch-time kick-off, while 10-man AC Milan were held to a 1-1 draw at Cesena.
Fiorentina also drew 1-1 at Torino as did Chievo Verona at home to Empoli.
Juventus and Roma both maintained their perfect starts to the season with victories on Saturday.
Cagliari took the lead in the 10th minute when Nagatomo failed to deal with a long ball and headed straight at Marco Sau, who fired home.
But Inter was back on level terms eight minutes later when Rodrigo Palacio took a free kick quickly and set up Pablo Osvaldo.
The turning point came shortly afterward when Nagatomo picked up two yellow cards in as many minutes and was dismissed.
Cagliari immediately restored their advantage as Handanovic did well to parry a fierce strike from Daniele Dessena, but Ekdal pounced on the rebound.
Ekdal doubled his tally five minutes later, tapping in Victor Ibarbo's cross after a great run from the Colombia winger who had bamboozled the Inter defence.
It almost got worse shortly before halftime when Nemanja Vidic mistimed a sliding tackle on Sau in the area. However, spot-kick specialist Handanovic saved Andrea Cossu's penalty.
But Cagliari did get a fourth moments later when Ekdal completed his hat-trick after Inter failed to clear a corner.

7 Readers Questions About MonaVie Answered
By Bryan Gauvin – March 15, 2010
Posted in: MonaVie Basics
They say be careful what you wish for. Well I asked you for your questions about a week ago and boy did I get them. Over 50 questions submitted. Today I thought I would pick a few of these questions and go head at them. Enjoy!
1. Will MonaVie cure my cancer?
No. MonaVie is not a drug, or a vitamin supplement. It is a fruit juice blend. Any Distributor who tries to tell you that MonaVie will 'cure' or 'treat' any disease or condition should be reported. Certainly there are many testimonials from users as to benefits they have found when drinking MonaVie, but MonaVie is a nutritional food (in juice form) designed to support health, not to cure disease.
2. Are the fruits used in MonaVie Organic?
Yes they are. MonaVie is insistent that only the finest quality organic fruits are used in all their blends. Organic fruits have higher concentrations of vitamins, minerals and phytonutrients.
3. Doesn't MonaVie contain preservatives though?
Yes it does. MonaVie uses potassium sorbate to inhibit mold growth. Postassium sorbate is considered to have a high SAFE rating. MonaVie contains an extremely low level of lemon based citric acid. This helps to lower the pH and to control microbes. Sodium Benzoate is also used to control mold, yeasts, bacteria and other microbes. Sodium Benzoate prevents food oxidation and preserves nutrients. Benzone levels are carefully monitored and are always well below what is considered a 'safe' level. A good safety level is considered a 5 and MonaVie is nearly always tested at under 3.
4. Does MonaVie contain any animal products?
No. All ingredients are plant-derived, so MonaVie is safe for vegetarians, vegans and seafood allergy sufferers. Before 2008 the glucosamine in MonaVie Active was derived from shrimps but MonaVie now use a plant-derived glucosamine.
5. How much Acai berry is in MonaVie?
No one knows for sure (except the makers). Most people put the estimate at around 20%, some place it as high as 60%. What we do know is that it is the 'crown jewel' and heads the top of the ingredient list so is therefore the priority fruit in MonaVie. The special freeze-drying process also ensures that the Acai used in MonaVie is at its freshest and most potent.
6. Is MonaVie safe for children?
Yes. MonaVie is a fruit juice. It is advised though that MonaVie Original is the best choice for children rather than the active or pulse.
7. Why is MonaVie so expensive?
Is it? There is a difference between cost, and price. Compare buying a second hand washing machine that breaks down in 6 months. It's price may be only $50 but after 6 months you have to replace it. Do that every 6 months and in 5 years you would have spent $500. For the same $500 you could have bought 1 machine that lasted you 8-10 years. Yes MonaVie can seem expensive but it is better than buying cheap watered down stuff that does not really support your health. Finding all the organic ingredients in Monavie and blending them in just the right amounts would probably be just as expensive. And, yes there are ways you can get Monavie for cheaper than the retail such as our FREE Preferred Customer program or becoming a Distributor.

text: Lisa and I set off on our Canoe Trip at about 10 O'Clock. We hired the Canoe from Boots n Paddles who dropped off the boat at the top of Neptun's Staircase. After quickly packing the boat we set off towards Loch Lochy along a sheltered stretch of the Caledonian canal. At the end of the stretch of canal we made our first portage around the locks at Gearlochy. We continued on into Loch Lochy where we met some more challanging weather. After a couple of hours of hugging the northern bank of the Loch we came to our first campsite where we set up camp. We dried our clothes on the open fire and enjoyed a hard earned meal. In total we managed 20 Kilometres which was reasonable considering the conditions. A truly wonderful day.

Snow Summit Sports Teams Full & Part Time Race Programs
The Full Time Race Team and Weekend Race Team are for skiers who are at least 8 years old and wish to prepare to become racers. They are grouped by age and ability levels. Each level will work on the skills necessary to improve their skiing and racing technique. The schedule and activities for the program will be determined by the coaching staff and the USSA/Far West race schedule.
Full Time Race Program
The Full Time program for racers 8-13 is an 18-week program with 19 hours of training per week. For racers 14-18, the program is an 18- to 20-week program with 22 hours of training per week. In addition, Full Time race team members also have training during holiday camps at no additional cost. These camps feature focused training and fun activities during mid-week sessions over school holidays.
Full Time racers also have Tyndall Haus privileges. They are assigned a locker in the team room for the storage of their gear. They have ski racks for their skis and poles, and they have boot dryers. This is a great convenience for our full time team.
Membership fees for Full Time Race Team members are $2,100 for 14 to 18 year olds (U16-U19) and $2,000 for 8 to 13 year olds (U10-U14). They also have the same anytime Cali4nia pass fees as the other program levels. Passes for 8-13 year olds are $100. Passes for 14-18 year olds are $200. The uniform rental is $50 (assuming that they have a carry-over of $50 from prior years), and the Goldsmith race entries are $50. So the total for 14-18 year olds is $2,400 and for 8-13 year olds is $2,200. For these fees, parents have no race work nor fundraising duties.
USSA and Far West memberships are required of all members. Go to www.ussa.org prior to October 15 to renew your athlete's membership. Memberships for 8-9 year olds (U10) are $63 ($25 for USSA and $38 for Far West). 10-11 year olds (U12) are $88 ($50 for USSA and $38 for Far West). 12-13 year olds (U14) are $128 ($75 for USSA and $53 for Far West). 15-18 year olds (U16-U19) are $203 ($150 for USSA and $53 for Far West). Fees get more expensive as the athlete ages because of the additional record-keeping to keep track of points.
Weekend Race Team Program
The Weekend Race Team only meets on weekends. They train for and attend races. They have locker room privileges, lockers, ski storage, and boot dryer space. They are not eligible to attend mid-week training at any time. Their training is an 18-week program at 10 hours a week.
The Weekend Race Team Fee is $1,700. They also have the same anytime Cali4nia pass fees as the other program levels. Passes for 8-13 year olds are $100. Passes for 14-18 year olds are $200. The uniform rental is $50 (assuming that they have a carry-over of $50 from prior years), and the Goldsmith race entries are $75. The total for 14-18 year olds is $2,025 and for 10-13 year olds is $1,925. For these fees, parents have no race work nor fundraising duties.
All Mountain Team
The All Mountain Team is another option once the athlete has passed the Race Team placement test. The All Mountain Team is also a weekend only program. Training is provided 10 hours a week for 17 to 18 weeks. While the underlying focus of weekend race team is designed to prepare racers for competitive racing, the All Mountain Team focuses on further skill development with more time on the snow in a variety of terrain. The team will ski at Summit, Bear Mountain, and most likely make at least one travel trip to Mammoth Mountain (see the SSRT Team Travel Guidelines booklet for information on team travel).
The All Mountain Team fee is $1,700, just like the Weekend Race Team. In addition to the membership fee, athletes pay for their anytime Cali4nia pass. The greatly reduced pass fee for team members is $100 for athletes 13 and under or $200 for athletes 14 and over. The All Mountain Team (AMT) does not rent their uniforms. They purchase them, either new or from a prior team member at the ski swap at the end of October. Since their primary focus is not racing, AMT chooses whether they will enter the Goldsmith race series. If they decide to race, the entry is $75. AMT fee totals range from $1,800 to $1,975, depending upon their age and whether they choose to race. For this fee, parents have no race work nor fundraising duties.
AMT members must join USSA and Far West. This is done through www.ussa.org. Since they are not participating in USSA or Far West races, their membership category is General Membership and the fee is $15 for USSA and $10 for Far West.
Membership Fee Reduction is available for local families and families of a Full Time Race Team Member in exchange for Work Off duties. "Local" is defined by the zip code in which the athlete is schooled. It does not mean that the family owns a second home in the area. The athlete must be schooled within the Bear Valley Unified School District attendance area. Those zip codes are: 92314, 92315, 92333, 92339, or 92386. Those areas are Big Bear City, Big Bear Lake, Fawnskin, Forest Falls, or Sugarloaf.
To be considered for Race Work Off the family needs to attend the Mandatory Race Meeting. This will be held at the Welcome Back BBQ on Sunday, October 22, 2017.
The team needs personnel to work the races that we put on for USSA and for the Goldsmith Race Series. For a USSA race, the work day is long, usually starting at 6:30 and lasting until about 4:30. For those 10+ hours, a membership fee credit of $100 will be granted. The work duty will need prior training, sometimes the morning of the race or at a prior training clinic. For a Goldsmith race, the membership fee credit of $50 is granted. The work load and the number of workers needed for a Goldsmith race is much less.
Race Work Off Fee Credits
Full Time Race Team families can work up to 4 USSA races for a membership fee credit of up to $400. Weekend Competition and All Mountain Team families that are local or have a full time race team member can work up to 4 USSA races for a membership fee credit of up to $400. Development Team families that are local or have a full time race team member can work up to 4 USSA races for a membership fee credit of up to $400.
Our USSA race dates this season are:
Saturday, January 20, 2018
Sunday, January 21, 2018
Saturday, February 3, 2018
Sunday, February 4, 2018
Make sure that your schedule will accommodate those dates before you make a commitment to work. If you make a commitment and fail to show up, you will be required to pay back the $100/day fee credit PLUS an additional $50 fee for causing the Race Work Chairperson to have to scramble to get a substitute worker.
Goldsmith Race dates are on the following days: Sunday, December 17, 2017, evening of Sunday, January 13, 2018, February 18, 2018, and Sunday, March 11, 2018.
Fundraising Work Off Membership Fee Reduction is available for local families and families of a Full Time Race Team Member. This fee reduction is $500. For each family that chooses the fundraising work off, they will need to either buy or sell two $50 dinner tickets to the Think Snow! Auction.
If you have a problem or a question, contact President, Barbara Boucher (rhymes with "voucher") at (909) 556-2864.


text: So, I've been slogging away at a Gibson V replica since December, as time has permitted. Been a long slog, as it's my first build. Perhaps the biggest headache has been the finish. Too many mistakes to list. But, basically tried doing a candy red with white primer underneath, in order to get close to a KK Downing replica V. Anyway, I actually got to the point where I started applying the clear last week. However, in order to get some help on the frets this past wknd, I took the tape off the fretboard. Well, along the entire edge of the fretboard, on both sides, was a sharp lip where the primer and paint had built up. Long story short, I ruined the finish by trying to carefully scrape this edge away to make everything flush again. All I did was expose the primer and bare wood. I decided to look into sending it out to someone like Stike to do it right. Anyway, my question (for future reference) is: how the heck do you avoid getting that edge when painting a neck???

The creators of "South Park," Andrew Sullivan and comedian Louis C.K. defied conventions by going solo with their own media companies. But what does it take to ensure indie media success? Amanda Palmer, singer for The Dresden Dolls, spoke to HuffPost Live host Mike Sacks on Tuesday about going from end to end of the indie spectrum.
Palmer went from busking on the sidewalk for years, to raising over a million dollars on Kickstarter for her solo album, which became a top ten hit last year. Looking forward, she argues that there's no single answer for what will work for independent artist and journalists.
"I think there's going to be as many different systems as there are outlets and artists, and I think trying to make a blanket rule about what will work for journalists, or what will work for musicians, or what will work for authors, is kind of the wrong conversation," Palmer told HuffPost Live.
Instead, Palmer focuses on using technology to present a unique approach to fans, saying "the cool thing about the Internet now is that you can totally personalize and customize your little system."
"Donnie Darko" producer Hunt Lowry also joined the conversation, saying that "there's always a few lucky breaks" in the world of independent film production, adding that producers need to be on as many platforms as possible, including the Internet, television, cable, and home video.
"You may be small and independent, but you still want it to be seen by as many people as possible," Lowry said.

Bloomberg News
WWR Article Summary (tl;dr) After it was revealed that russian-linked accounts used multiple U.S. advertising networks during the election season, the companies must now figure out how much responsibility to take. Companies like facebook and Twitter also have to figure out how much change to promise, without succumbing to costly regulation or setting a precedent that might be difficult to follow in other countries.
Bloomberg News
Google summoned about 200 policy staff from around the world last month for a debate on whether the company's size has made it too attractive as a target for government regulators.
The two-day retreat in Monterey, Calif., where employees from the $682 billion company plied Washington policy experts with questions about the pros and cons of its size, took place as Google confronts European antitrust claims and proposed U.S. legislation that would increase online publishers' liability for content produced by others.
This week, the Alphabet Inc. unit disclosed new information that could further roil the regulatory picture: revelations that Russian-linked accounts used its advertising network to interfere with the 2016 presidential election.
The news put Google in the company of Facebook Inc. and Twitter Inc., both of which are embroiled in the controversy surrounding Russia's involvement in last year's U.S. elections. Executives at all three companies are scrambling to respond.
Facebook has hired two crisis PR firms, and it plans to bring on as many as 1,000 people to screen ads.
Top executives, including Chief Executive Officer Mark Zuckerberg, are phoning members of Congress directly.
The company reported spending more than $3.2 million on lobbying in the first quarter of 2017, a company record.
Google spent almost $6 million in the second quarter for its own record. Both companies, with Twitter, are working together to deal with issues related to the Russian ads.

We have all heard that old adage that "money can't buy happiness"! And although I am a financial professional whose job is to inspire people to make sound financial decisions, I think there is a lot of truth to this saying. The pursuit of financial well-being at the expense of other important life goals seems inadvisable and quite unappealing!
But recently, I came across research from a number of academic disciplines that made me briefly wonder whether my thinking was off target. One such study, undertaken by two University of Michigan professors and published in April of this year, (Note 1) concluded that money can indeed buy happiness, contradicting years of economic dogma.
For decades, economists have actually believed happiness and income were not related, in part due to the influence of a landmark study on the subject published in 1974. (Note 2) However, the Michigan researchers could not find a point of financial attainment where the level of happiness leveled off.
As I considered these vastly different conclusions, I came to realize that we should not spend too much time considering this academic debate! Instead, I think it's probably more important for each person to decide about this question for their own life – without resorting to the use of statistics and econometric models!
Each of us could consider, for example, establishing our own personal objective about what we would need in order to remove finances as a source of stress or anxiety. This approach might include developing a realistic plan that will help you attain that financial objective(s), or it could involve getting assistance from a professional if the effort seems too difficult.
Even if you currently feel confident about your financial circumstances, you might want to re-focus on activities that provide you with intrinsic happiness and then reconsider your financial plans so that you can do more of those things in the future.
Having worked with many professionals experiencing mid-life change, I think these are particularly important questions to consider – a time of change presents a great opportunity to re-assess what is truly important in your life and to then try to organize your finances with the goal of trying to do more of those activities.
The results from such an exercise will not win you a Nobel Prize, but may likely provide important "psychic" benefits regardless of your situation. It also seems a lot more practical than solving a debate between some pretty smart economists and other social scientists!
And as you consider your own circumstances, I am providing guidance in this month's newsletter about a number of financial topics that may help you move toward your personal definition of financial happiness. Remember, you don't need to earn a PhD to feel "happy" about your finances:
Should You Pay Off Your Mortgage?
A common question I hear from professionals transitioning to second careers or into retirement is whether they should pay off their mortgage. Unfortunately, there is not a standard answer — the decision is based on one's individual circumstances. Learn about the factors you should consider to make an informed choice! Read more…
Asset Class Review – REITs
Since the 2008-2009 Great Recession, Real Estate Investment Trusts (or "REITs" as they are often called) have been a popular investment, especially in light of today's low interest rates. However, these investments have been somewhat volatile recently and you would be well advised to learn about this asset class before investing. Read more…
Social Security – Questions and Answers
If you are on the path toward electing Social Security benefits, or are developing a retirement plan, learn about the intricacies of this important program. Will the program remain solvent? How are your benefits taxed? Read more…
Making the Most of Your 401(k) Plan
With another school year right around the corner, it might be a good idea to go back to "401(k) school" and brush up on how to make the best use of the employer-sponsored retirement plans in which you are hopefully participating. Whether you are transitioning back into the workforce or simply want to review your current account, learn about how to best take advantage of this important staple of your retirement savings. Read more…
I hope you benefit from these articles and other financial education blogs I publish on my website, facebook and twitter pages. As always, please do not hesitate to contact me at (925) 301-4086 or send me an email if you have any questions about these or other financial topics!

Dickinson has named one of America's foremost playwrights, John Patrick Shanley, the 2016-17 recipient of The Harold and Ethel L. Stellfox Visiting Scholars and Writers Program award. Shanley will accept the Stellfox award and will take part in two public events on campus.
Shanley is best known for his diverse range of works, including the 2005 play Doubt, winner of four Tony awards, a Drama Desk award and the Pulitzer Prize; he also is a screenwriter and director of the 2008 film adaptation, starring Meryl Streep and Philip Seymour Hoffman. Additionally, Shanley wrote the screenplay for the 1987 film Moonstruck, which won three Academy Awards, including best screenplay. Recent works, including Outside Mullingar and The Prodigal Son, also have received critical acclaim. Shanley's residency will include talks and class visits across campus, as well as two public events:
Sunday, Nov. 6 at 8 p.m.: Writing for Stage and Screen
Shanley will share his perspectives on his work as a writer and director for stage and film in the Anita Tuvin Schlechter (ATS) Auditorium. The talk is free and open to the public.
Monday, Nov. 7 at 8 p.m.: John Patrick Shanley in Conversation
Shanley will participate in a moderated discussion and Q&A session in the Anita Tuvin Schlechter (ATS) Auditorium. The session is free and open to the public and will be followed by a book-signing in the lobby.
The Stellfox Visiting Scholars and Writers Program is a gift from Jean Louise Stellfox, a 1960 graduate of Dickinson who was inspired to become an English teacher after meeting Robert Frost during the poet's visit to the college in 1959. When Stellfox died tragically in 2003, her estate provided $1.5 million to the college to continue her mission of inspiring students by bringing renowned literary figures to campus. Stellfox named the program in honor of her parents, Harold and Ethel L. Stellfox.
Shanley joins an illustrious group of previous Stellfox distinguished writers, including MacArthur Fellow and author Edwidge Danticat; three-time Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Edward Albee; Nobel laureate Mario Vargas Llosa; Pulitzer Prize-winning author Richard Russo; Pulitzer Prize-winning poets Rita Dove and Paul Muldoon; Tony Award-winning playwright David Henry Hwang; and Booker Prize-winning authors Ian McEwan and Margaret Atwood.

Getting here:
After graduating from McGill University, I spent two years working on various marine species research projects at Mote Marine Laboratory, NOAA's Hollings Marine Lab, the National Park Service, and the New England Aquarium. While working as an intern in the Marine Mammal Education and Research Department at the New England Aquarium, I learned about COA and Allied Whale from my supervisor, who was a graduate of COA. I then spent a few months working at Allied Whale as a photo-identification technician to get to know everyone and the important work they do. This solidified COA as my choice of graduate schools.

I'm going to post some pics of my new rhr. I'm afraid that my cell phone simply does not do this ring justice, but we'll give it a go anyway! This ring is a Danhov Voltaggio tension set, it is made with Stuller X1 white gold (meaning that it never needs redipped!), however Danhov did dip it to obtain the high polish finish. I don't have to redip it later if it wears off unless I choose to. I wanted palladium, but Danhov would not create this design in palladium. It is a Forever Brilliant square brilliant stone, 6.5 x 6.5 equivalent of 1.72 carats. My wedding ring is a 1.12 round diamond, I have included some pics comparing them side by side.
In my opinion, this stone is gorgeous! It has depth, just like my diamond. It is comparable in its response to different types of lighting, just like my diamond is. It has some rainbow sparkle, however I really only notice it in store lighting, and it is very subtle. Not much more noticeable than my "I" colored diamond. Maybe because it is a square? But it is not "in your face" rainbows at all. It appears bright and clear and sparkly, just like my diamond!
Without further rambling…

MilfHunter.com Valerie Rose Pornographic Videos
This MILF Valerie Rose wished a little bit of sexy time clear of her husband. The fellas hurried to get her, and she had on absolutely no under wear or brassiere. They got back in the residence, and she got into the swimming pool and couldn't wait. She consumed cock and had taken a schlong deeper into her slit. Valerie was enjoying it simply because she hadn't been banged that way in a long time.

Robert Pattinson attended the LA premiere of 'The Rover' held at Regency Bruin Theatre on Thursday (June 12) in Los Angeles, California.
During Cannes the actor stuck to black and, while we still loved his Dior Homme looks, we were longing for the dashing colours he sported during the 'Twilight' tour.
Well, last night he answered our prayers, donning a bright blue Alexander McQueen Spring 2014 two-button notched-lapel suit styled with a white dress shirt, navy tie and patent-leather shoes.
Even in a suit Rob can still look a bit unkempt, but here he scrubs up nicely. Do you agree?

I was running out of things to do with vegetables and getting bored with the way I usually cook them. I love roasting vegetables with olive oil, salt, and pepper (and sometimes crushed garlic), but sometimes you gotta switch things up. I'm always looking for ways to eat more veggies, so I googled for some inspiration. I came across this recipe for a corn and zucchini melody and decided I would shake things up and try to make my own variation on this dish. I always find that googling and searching the internet for recipes gives me ideas to come up with my own. I either never have all the ingredients on hand so I improvise, or I decide to add to the recipe, or sometimes, I find that searching for recipes simply gets my creative juices flowing and I come up with my own. In this case, I used the base of the recipe, but I definitely added my own twist to it. Here is my take on how to make a delicious corn and zucchini skillet. It's the perfect side dish for summer.
What you need:
6 slices of bacon
1 red onion diced
3 cloves of garlic minced
5 zucchini diced
1 large can of corn
1 large tomato chopped
1 tsp of dried dillweed (fresh is even better. I just did not have any on hand)
1 tsp of dried parsley (or use fresh!)
salt & pepper to taste
shredded mozzarella cheese (about 3/4 cup)
1. In a large skillet cook the 6 slices of bacon. Once crisp, remove the bacon and let it drain on a paper towel. Reserve about a tablespoon of the bacon drippings for the vegetables
2. Add the chopped onion and garlic to the bacon drippings and let them sautee for about a minute
3. Add the zuccini and let cook for 2-3 minutes until the zucchini begins to soften
4. Add the corn and stir for another 2-3 minutes
5. Add the chopped tomato, salt, pepper, parsley and dill and cook for another 5 minutes until everything is nicely combined
6. Turn the heat off and crumble the bacon over the top of the vegetable
7. Sprinkle as much shredded cheese as you like over the top. The cheese will melt over the vegetables and bacon
