Smoke was a science fiction fanzine published by George Locke.
The first issue of Smoke appeared in July 1959. It featured articles by Ken Bulmer and Bob Richardson, with illustrations by Jim Cawthorn.
Issue 2 (November 1959) included Sid Birchby, Belle Dietz, Ivor Mayne, Archie Mercer, Ella Parker, Rog Rogers, Vic Ryan, and Andy Young.
Smokewas voted the 6th favourite British fanzine in the Skyrack Readers Fan Poll for its first year of publishing, in 1959. By 1960, it was in 3rd place.
The 3rd appearance of Smoke was delayed due to George Locke's entry into the armed forces, and was published by Ella Parker. It included an account of Locke's recent experiences, as well as contributions by Mal Ashworth, John Berry, Sid Birchby, Vince Clarke, and Ken Potter.
Issue 4 was released in November 1960 and included articles by the editor as well as contributions by John Berry, Lee Jacobs, Robert Lichtman, Archie Mercer, Ella Parker, Dick Schultz, plus illustrations by Jon Cawthorn and covers by Arthur Thomson.
Issue 5 (January 1961) featured John Berry, Sid Birchby, Don Geldart, and George Spencer.
Shortly after, Locke left the UK for duty in Africa, where he began publishing a smaller follow up to Smoke, called The Prose of Kilimanjaro.
The first year it appeared it was voted the 6th favourite British fanzine in the Skyrack Readers Fan Poll. In 1960, it was in 3rd place.

Local education officials are no doubt breathing a sigh of relief as Proposition 30, the tax measure pushed by Gov. Jerry Brown, appears headed for victory.
With nearly all precincts reporting across the state, the measure had 53.9% of the vote, compared to 46.1% voting against, according to the latest reports from the California Secretary of State.
The fate of the $6-billion-a-year tax initiative to rescue California schools and the state's finances was key in determining just how deep local school officials would have to cut their budgets by next year.
As the election returns slowly trickled in, interim Glendale Community College Supt. Jim Riggs said that without Prop. 30, the campus would have to "cut courses, programs and positions — there's really no other choice."
The unsuccessful rival Proposition 38 — bankrolled by tens of millions of dollars from Molly Munger — would have dedicated an income tax to K-12 schools only, excluding community colleges.
Glendale Community College officials — who panned Munger's proposal — painted a grim picture should Prop. 30 lose out, projecting the college would lose an additional $4.6 million midyear.
Glendale school officials also said they would need to cut roughly $10 million from their budget midyear in addition to another $10 million in 2013-14, which could lead to layoffs, should the tax measure fail. Burbank Unified warned that without Prop. 30, they may have to resort to pay cuts and layoffs to address a projected deficit next year of more than $13 million.
Despite the dire warnings, many voters, like 28-year-old Jake Johnson, remained skeptical. He said he voted against both the propositions in protest to raising taxes in a "bad economy when a lot of people are out of work."
Schools "don't have a revenue problem, they have a money management problem," he added.
But other voters, like 29-year-old Brandon Bennett, also in Burbank, thought revenue was exactly the issue.
For Bennett — his wife a school teacher, his father a district superintendent — a "yes" vote on Prop. 30 was very important.
"Schools are really suffering," Bennett said outside a polling station in Burbank. "More money needs to go back to school district."

Courtney Cunningham is a builder. While playing volleyball for Ole Miss from 2009-11, Cunningham helped build the Rebels into an NCAA Tournament team while also earning her civil engineering degree. From that degree, Cunningham is helping build dreams, including her own.
Cunningham spent two weeks this past August in Togo with Engineers Without Borders where she helped with the first phase of a 5- to 10-year project to build a school for one of the communities in the West African nation.
While the group faced many obstacles, they were able to pour two slabs for each classroom, put up all the columns to the correct height and set up an L-shape concrete beam for one of the classrooms.
"We came into a lot of obstacles that prevented us from getting the classrooms done in time," Cunningham said. "That's what happens whenever you go to a foreign country and you don't speak the language. There are always some difficulties you come across."
Cunningham described the typical day, in which they worked from sun up to sun down, in two words: very hot.
"We are so blessed here, and to go over there and have all those challenges put in front of us, and as engineers, we had to figure it out," she said. "They gave us the wrong shipment of rocks for our concrete mix and gravel, so we had to sort rocks. I took that challenge upon myself. It was very tedious, but it needed to be done. And it was a great way to get the kids involved.
"We would measure out an inch on the wheelbarrow. We put the rocks in there, and if it did not fit we would throw it out, and if it did fit we kept it in the wheelbarrow. You can only imagine how challenging this was because none of the kids spoke English, they all spoke French."
Cunningham left Togo on Aug. 21, spent a day in Oxford and then drove to Houston, where she now works as an engineer in training (EIT) for Lockwood, Andrews & Newnam. There, she helps design plans for clients while also learning from the professional engineers (PE) above her.
"Transportation engineering was not really what I worked on when I was in Togo, but the lessons I learned from Togo are helping me here," Cunningham said. "I learned how to deal with difficulties. Everything is not going to go right in engineering; you just have to find a way to make it work. It kind of goes back to volleyball and the classroom as well. You always encounter issues, and something not going right; it's how you and your mindset can make the problem better or fix it."
It's a five-year process from EIT to PE, during which Cunningham has to keep a record of all the projects she works on and then take an exam. That professional engineering license, Cunningham said, is her end goal, what she's working for and her everything right now, but she also sees something beyond the license.
"The dream career is to travel while doing engineering and get to a point where I can call myself a project manager," Cunningham said. "That's the end goal for me. That's what my eye is on right now."

Cherry Tortoni
2 1/4 cups fresh or frozen (not thawed) pitted sour cherries
(3/4 lb) 1/2 cup plus 1/3 cup sugar
2 tablespoons Di Saronno Amaretto or other almond-flavored liqueur
1 1/2 teaspoons cornstarch
1 tablespoon cold water
1 1/2 cups sliced almonds, toasted and cooled completely
1 1/4 cups fine vanilla-wafer crumbs (from about 40 wafers)
1/2 stick (1/4 cup) unsalted butter, melted
4 large egg whites
1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
1 1/3 cups chilled heavy cream
2 tablespoons sweet Marsala wine or sweet Sherry
3/4 cup coarsely ground amaretti cookies (from about 20 one-inch cookies)
Cook cherries
If using frozen cherries, thaw, reserving juices. Simmer cherries, 1/2 cup sugar, and liqueur in a 2- to 3-quart heavy saucepan, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until cherries are soft, about 5 minutes.
Whisk together cornstarch and water until combined, then whisk into cherry mixture and boil 1 minute.
Transfer to a shallow bowl and chill, uncovered, 1 hour.
Make crust
Pulse 1 cup almonds in a food processor until finely ground (do not pulse to a paste). Transfer to a bowl and stir in wafer crumbs and butter with a fork until combined well.
Pat crumb mixture evenly onto bottom and 1 1/2 inches up side of buttered spring form pan, then freeze while making filling, about 30 minutes.
Make tortoni filling
Beat egg whites with remaining 1/3 cup sugar, cream of tartar, and a pinch of salt in a medium metal bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water using a hand-held electric mixer at medium-high speed until whites just hold soft peaks and instant-read thermometer registers 170°F, about 5 minutes.
Remove bowl from saucepan and continue to beat whites until they just hold stiff peaks, about 2 minutes more.
Beat cream with Marsala in another bowl at medium speed until it just holds stiff peaks. Fold in ground amaretti and half of whites gently but thoroughly.
Fold in remaining whites and pour into crust in pan, smoothing top.
Drain cherries in a sieve set over a bowl and reserve juices. Scatter cherries evenly over top of tortoni, then swirl cherries into tortoni with tip of a sharp knife for a marbled effect. Sprinkle top of tortoni with remaining 1/2 cup toasted sliced almonds and freeze, loosely covered, until firm, at least 4 hours.
Let stand in pan at room temperature 10 minutes to soften slightly before serving. Carefully remove side of pan, then cut tortoni into wedges and serve with cherry juices.
Note: Tortoni can be frozen up to 1 week.. Makes 10 servings.

Utah Water Science Center
Utah PROJECTS
USGS Water Science Centers are located in each state.
Great Salt Lake, Utah
Great Salt Lake Facts
Great Salt Lake is located on a shallow playa. Consequently, small changes in the water-surface elevation result in large changes in the surface area of the lake. This is particularly evident when the lake spills into the west desert at an elevation of about 4,215 feet, greatly increasing its area. The satellite imagery shows changes in the area of the lake from 1972, through the high-runoff period of 1983-87, and ending in 1996. At the historic average (1847-1986) surface elevation of 4,200 feet (1975 is an "average year" shown in the images), the lake covers an area of about 1,700 square miles. At the historic low elevation of 4,191.35 in 1963, the lake covered only 950 square miles. The drop of about 8.5 feet in elevation resulted in a loss of about 44 percent in surface area. During 1986 and again in 1987, the lake reached an elevation of 4,211.6 feet and had a surface area of about 3,300 square miles. The relation between water-surface elevation and corresponding surface area and volume of the lake is shown on an elevation-area-volume curve, also called a hypsographic curve (from the Greek, hypsos, meaning height).
Satellite images of Great Salt Lake, from USGS EarthShots.
Great Salt Lake and vicinity, Utah
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) has measured the elevation of Great Salt Lake since 1875 and conducted many studies on the hydrology, salinity, water quality, and ecology of the lake. Currently, the USGS operates lake elevation gages at Saltair Marina, Saline (north arm), and on the railroad causeway near Promontory Point. The USGS is studying the ecology of brine shrimp in the lake in cooperation with the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources and researchers from the Department of Fisheries and Wildlife at Utah State University.
The map to the left shows Tooele and Salt Lake City. A larger image is available.
In addition to measuring changes in lake elevation, since the early 1960s the USGS has conducted detailed studies of the physical and chemical hydrology of the lake. These have included investigations of the prehistory of the lake, general hydrology of closed-basin lakes, effects of human activities on the lake, and a detailed accounting of the water budget.
Salinity and water quality
Salt industry
The salts of the lake are primarily sodium chloride (common salt), although small amounts of other elements and salts are also present, including magnesium, potassium, sulfate, and carbonate. There are about 4.5 to 4.9 billion tons of salt in the lake, and about 2.2 million tons of salt enter the lake annually from surface- and ground-water flow. The salt industries extract about 2.5 million tons of sodium chloride and other salts and elements from the lake annually.
The picture to the left shows salt ponds. A larger image is available.
Industries extracting salt and other minerals from the lake:
Brine shrimp
Brine shrimp are not only the most visible inhabitants of Great Salt Lake and are very important to the ecology of the lake, serving as a major source of food for migratory birds. They are also valuable for the hard-walled eggs they produce, which are commercially harvested and used worldwide in the aquaculture industry.
Birds: Great Salt Lake supports between 2 and 5 million shorebirds, as many as 1.7 million eared grebes, and hundreds of thousands of waterfowl during spring and fall migration. Because of its importance to migratory birds, the lake was designated a part of the Western Hemisphere Shorebird Reserve Network in 1992. The lake and its marshes provide a resting and staging area for the birds, as well as an abundance of brine shrimp and brine flies that serve as food.
Planktonic and benthic habitats
The planktonic and benthic habitatin Great Salt Lake consists of the open water inhabited by brine shrimp, phytoplankton (algae), bacteria, and other small zooplankton. These organisms are all free-swimming or float in the water. The benthic habitat consists of the bottom substrate of the lake and its associated organisms. These organisms are primarily brine-fly larvae and benthic algae.

Another important echo, which has rarely been discussed, is the identification of the youth with Christ, an echo which is apparent here, and leads me to suspect that the dedication is really the work of Shakespeare. For the ONLIE. BEGETTER. by an easy transformation becomes the 'only begotten' of the Gospels, and the youth, as well as the poet, by a strange transubstantiation or transmutation, both become Christ-like figures. In the Elizabethan Book of Common Prayer, in the Communion Service, or, to give it its full title from the BCP:
the phrase is used three times, and I give the details below:
And the Epistle and Gospel being ended shall be said the Creed.
I BELEVE in one God, the father almighty maker of heaven and earthe, and of all thynges visible and invisible: And in one Lorde Jesu Christe, the onely begotten sonne of GOD, begotten of his father before al worldes, god of God, lyghte of lyghte, verye God of verye God, gotten, not made, beynge of one substance wyth the father, by whome all thinges were made, who for us men, and for our salvacion came doune from heaven, and was incarnate by the holy Ghoste, of the Virgine Mary, and was made man, and was crucified also for us, under Poncius Pilate.
Then shall the priest also say.
Hear what comfortable words our Savior Christ saith, to all that truly turn to him.
COME unto me
all that travaile and be heavy
laden, and I shal refreshe you. So God loved the world that he gave his
sonne, to thende that al that beleve in him, should not perishe but
life everlastyng.
Then shall be said or sung.
GLORYE be to God on hyghe. And in earthe peace, good wyll towardes men. We prayse thee, we blesse thee, we worshyppe thee, we glorifye thee, wee geve thanckes to thee, for thy greate glorye. O Lorde God, heavenlye Kynge, God the father Almightie. O Lorde the onely begotten Sonne Jesu Christ.
(These quotations are from the 1559 version of the Book of Common Prayer, the full text of which is available on line. To access it use this link ). I have cited the BCP rather than the opening of St. John's Gospel, which is the more obvious starting point, because it is more probable that Elizabethans would be familiar with what was always being read in their churches than with remembrance of any private reading of the Bible.
Bearing in mind the latent religious references in many of the sonnets, most notably in 34 (St. Peter's denial of Christ), 52 (the Beatitudes), 88 (the revilement by the Jews), 90 (abandonement on the cross), 105 (idolatrous love; the Holy Trinity), 108 (hallowed be thy name), 109 (repentance, baptism), 110 (world without end), 111 (drinking of vinegar), 125 (oblation of himself as a loving sacrifice), this being only a partial list, it is almost unthinkable that the writer was unaware of the potential contact with New Testament reference, or indeed that he was unfamiliar with the Communion Service readings. One other striking echo also occurs in the sonnets, drawn from the very same passage of the Communion Service shown above which includes the 'only begotten', for the opening line of Sonnet 53 seems to parallel the description of Christ there given:
What is your substance, whereof are you made, 53
beynge of one substance wyth the father, by whome all thinges were made,
the latter being taken from the first BCP excerpt above. There was also appointed to be spoken on The Feast of the Trinity the following:
O Lord, almighty and everlasting God, which art one God, one Lord, not one only person, but three persons in one substance: for that which we believe of the glory of the Father, the same we believe of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost, without any difference or inequality
Sonnet 53 is read and explained usually in terms of Neo-Platonic philosophy, but a more immediate key to its meaning must surely be the BCP passage above. The implication is that the youth is, or might be seen as, a Christ like figure. Is he of the same substance as the Father, that millions of strange shadows (angels?) on him tend and do his bidding? Yet his substance is sufficient to give light to all the world, though being only one, single, yet sharing the mystery of the disparate oneness of the Trinity.
It is no doubt
strange to a modern scientific ear
that so much theological significance should be attached to the single
'substance' but OED gives as its primary meaning
a1600 Hooker (J.), The laws of God+of a different constitution from the former, in respect of the one's constancy, and the mutability of the other.
But constancy and the Trinity are recalled in another famous sonnet about the beloved and the Holy Trinity, 105:
Let not my
love be called idolatry,
in which reference is made to the beautiful youth as
constant in a wondrous excellence;
The claim of constancy here in the couplet of 53 is therefore an answer to the question of line 1, that the beloved does indeed have divine qualities. Constancy is the essence of the Trinity, the three godheads are in fact one in substance, they are constant and unchanging, they express one thing, they leave aside difference. (See the excerpt from the Feast of the Trinity reading above). These references (in 105) are in fact accepted by most commentators, for they are fairly obvious and one does not have to delve too deeply into scripture or theological texts to unravel them.
The importance of the
above interpretation of 53
for the argument here presented, is that it identifies the beloved with
God, a fairly close identification with the Son as begotten by the
Presumably the Father is the only begetter of his only begotten Son. .
the opening line of the sonnet ties in with
For those who have doubts that these sonnets are imbued with religious hints and references, rather than say merely having a philosophical basis, and having strong links with neo-Platonism, it is worth bearing in mind that the interpretation of
Let me not
to the marriage of true minds
which is universally accepted as relating to words from the marriage service given in the BCP, hinges mainly on the single word impediments, and of course the fact that the word (in the singular) occurs in the Marriage Service. In 53 the key words are substance and made, but it is significant that the words come from the Communion Service, the offering or oblation of the body and blood of Christ through the sacrament of the Eucharist. The language of the sonnets elsewhere confirms the imporatnce of oblation, for in 125 the beloved giving himself as an oblation does so as
But mutual render, only me for thee. 125.
The oblation is the sacrifice on the Cross, the ultimate sacrifice of love, and by a transformation in the poet's mind, the offering of himself becomes a sort of Eucharist to the beloved, as also in A Lover's Complaint, when the treacherous youth offers the loves and love tokens of all his former conquests as an oblation to the maiden. (LC.223.)
I have laboured these points, and emphasised the deeply religious flavour of some of the sonnets mainly to show that the religious doctrines and their suggestiveness is fairly evident when the connections are made between the appropriate places in the Sonnets and the original texts read in the Churches. I propose that these suggestions and echoes, although they may not have been consciously included, in the sense that in the writing of poetry what is or is not conscious may not be a meaningful distinction to make, were nevertheless not removed, but deliberately retained because of their power to enhance the record of the experience of loving.
I am not hastening to suggest that Shakespeare was being frivolously blasphemous in using this or any of the other biblical echoes sprinkled throughout the sonnets. Or indeed that the sonnets are predominantly religious in tone. For they are not, they are primarily about the experience of loving. What I do however suspect, because of the frequency and intensity of the religious echoes, is that the reference here in the dedication is not an unconscious one, but deliberate, and serves to echo and enhance the thematic content of the main work. The beloved is like the beauteous transfigured Christ, the lover is in many instances like the suffering and sacrificed Christ, and the two are one flesh, their hearts are interchangeable. It might be objected that any work treading so perilously close to parodying religious themes would be in danger of condemnation and burning, and the author might fear for his life. Had the Sonnets been a work of religious doctrine, it would no doubt have been closely scrutinised. Being mere sonnets, they could be passed on the nod, and no one would look too deeply into them, or at least nobody in authority would, and unless they became hugely popular, they would probably never raise an eyebrow, for the Stationer's Office, which would have had other far more weighty matters to consider, could be considered to have done its job well. Yet it is interesting that one early reader has recorded his/her comment after the final sonnet 'What a heap of wretched Infidel Stuff'. (Quoted in KDJ Intro. p. 169). Whether the early readers of Shakespeare's sonnets, who found them 'sugred', also found them blasphemous, is not recorded. (The sonnets that they had the opportunity to read may however not be the ones that we have). And it must be admitted that one has to have an ear attuned to these matters, for the mind tends to listen more to beauteous comparisons and felicity of language, rather than to possibly obscure religious references. Nevertheless the textual echoes are quite striking. And it is a more probable derivation than is the relatively recent suggestion (1987) that ever-living (see below) is an epithet used mostly of God, and therefore the ever-living poet probably in this case refers to God rather than to Shakespeare.
I have not discovered yet if the link between 53 and the passage cited above, or indeed the link between ONLIE. BEGETTER and the only begotten Son has been previously noted. It is possible that it has been scrutinised and subsequently dismissed. Yet given the dense texture of the Sonnets, the interweaving in them of so many disparate elements, and the frequent and haunting echoes of the well known New Testament themes, we should look again at these references and acknowledge that they tie in perfectly with the thematic content of the Sonnets - that love is eternal and absolute; that human love partakes of the divine; that even if the beloved object is imperfect (as in this case indeed he is, being a man instead of a woman, and being conceited and frivolous to boot), yet love makes no distinction; that even as divine love was willing to sacrifice all for imperfect and sinful mankind, the creature who was really not worthy of such suffering, human love also can make the same sacrifice.
It is almost unthinkable that Thorpe himself with a full realisation of their significance could have chosen these words, for as a publisher he would hardly have wished to have laid himself open to a capital charge. But, as presented to him by Shakespeare, and with full knowledge of their gentle secular irony, as distinct from their religious import, it would have been an entirely different matter.
The possibility (to my mind the probability) that Shakespeare wrote the dedication, does of course throw a new light on the Sonnets, for it would no longer be possible for us to consider them as pirated, or that the author wished them to be suppressed, or that he had no hand in their publication, or that they were only written for private circulation, or that he considered them to be derogatory to his reputation. These are important considerations for any future survey of their themes and history.
Whether or not in the cold light of reason one agrees with these loving postures of the poet (as outlined above), is another matter. But it is noticeable that the main theme is repeated in A Lover's Complaint, where the maid acknowledges her fault, but also acknowledges the impossibility of responding to the precepts of love in any other way. Her language also is couched in religious terms (pervert, reconciled), and in the final stanza she concludes, with no dissenting voice being offered by the listening poet or sympathetic shepherd, that all the youth's beauties, if once again presented to her in the same way
Would yet
again betray the fore-betrayed,
That is, that love would once again be triumphant.

English literature, the body of written works produced in the English language by inhabitants of the British Isles (including Ireland) from the 7th century to the present day. The major literatures written in English outside the British Isles are treated separately under American literature, Australian literature, Canadian literature, and New Zealand literature.
English literature has sometimes been stigmatized as insular. It can be argued that no single English novel attains the universality of the Russian writer Leo Tolstoy's War and Peace or the French writer Gustave Flaubert's Madame Bovary. Yet in the Middle Ages the Old English literature of the subjugated Saxons was leavened by the Latin and Anglo-Norman writings, eminently foreign in origin, in which the churchmen and the Norman conquerors expressed themselves. From this combination emerged a flexible and subtle linguistic instrument exploited by Geoffrey Chaucer and brought to supreme application by William Shakespeare. During the Renaissance the renewed interest in Classical learning and values had an important effect on English literature, as on all the arts; and ideas of Augustan literary propriety in the 18th century and reverence in the 19th century for a less specific, though still selectively viewed, Classical antiquity continued to shape the literature. All three of these impulses derived from a foreign source, namely the Mediterranean basin. The Decadents of the late 19th century and the Modernists of the early 20th looked to continental European individuals and movements for inspiration. Nor was attraction toward European intellectualism dead in the late 20th century, for by the mid-1980s the approach known as structuralism, a phenomenon predominantly French and German in origin, infused the very study of English literature itself in a host of published critical studies and university departments. Additional influence was exercised by deconstructionist analysis, based largely on the work of French philosopher Jacques Derrida.
Further, Britain's past imperial activities around the globe continued to inspire literature—in some cases wistful, in other cases hostile. Finally, English literature has enjoyed a certain diffusion abroad, not only in predominantly English-speaking countries but also in all those others where English is the first choice of study as a second language.
English literature is therefore not so much insular as detached from the continental European tradition across the Channel. It is strong in all the conventional categories of the bookseller's list: in Shakespeare it has a dramatist of world renown; in poetry, a genre notoriously resistant to adequate translation and therefore difficult to compare with the poetry of other literatures, it is so peculiarly rich as to merit inclusion in the front rank; English literature's humour has been found as hard to convey to foreigners as poetry, if not more so—a fact at any rate permitting bestowal of the label "idiosyncratic"; English literature's remarkable body of travel writings constitutes another counterthrust to the charge of insularity; in autobiography, biography, and historical writing, English literature compares with the best of any culture; and children's literature, fantasy, essays, and journals, which tend to be considered minor genres, are all fields of exceptional achievement as regards English literature. Even in philosophical writings, popularly thought of as hard to combine with literary value, thinkers such as Thomas Hobbes, John Locke, David Hume, John Stuart Mill, and Bertrand Russell stand comparison for lucidity and grace with the best of the French philosophers and the masters of Classical antiquity.
Some of English literature's most distinguished practitioners in the 20th century—from Joseph Conrad at its beginning to V.S. Naipaul and Tom Stoppard at its end—were born outside the British Isles. What is more, none of the aforementioned had as much in common with his adoptive country as did, for instance, Doris Lessing and Peter Porter (two other distinguished writer-immigrants to Britain), both having been born into a British family and having been brought up on British Commonwealth soil.
On the other hand, during the same period in the 20th century, many notable practitioners of English literature left the British Isles to live abroad: James Joyce, D.H. Lawrence, Aldous Huxley, Christopher Isherwood, Robert Graves, Graham Greene, Muriel Spark, and Anthony Burgess. In one case, that of Samuel Beckett, this process was carried to the extent of writing works first in French and then translating them into English.
Even English literature considered purely as a product of the British Isles is extraordinarily heterogeneous, however. Literature actually written in those Celtic tongues once prevalent in Cornwall, Ireland, Scotland, and Wales—called the "Celtic Fringe"—is treated separately (see Celtic literature). Yet Irish, Scots, and Welsh writers have contributed enormously to English literature even when they have written in dialect, as the 18th-century poet Robert Burns and the 20th-century Scots writer Alasdair Gray have done. In the latter half of the 20th century, interest began also to focus on writings in English or English dialect by recent settlers in Britain, such as Afro-Caribbeans and people from Africa proper, the Indian subcontinent, and East Asia.
Even within England, culturally and historically the dominant partner in the union of territories comprising Britain, literature has been as enriched by strongly provincial writers as by metropolitan ones. Another contrast more fruitful than not for English letters has been that between social milieus, however much observers of Britain in their own writings may have deplored the survival of class distinctions. As far back as medieval times, a courtly tradition in literature cross-fertilized with an earthier demotic one. Shakespeare's frequent juxtaposition of royalty in one scene with plebeians in the next reflects a very British way of looking at society. This awareness of differences between high life and low, a state of affairs fertile in creative tensions, is observable throughout the history of English literature.
The Old English period
The Angles, Saxons, and Jutes who invaded Britain in the 5th and 6th centuries brought with them the common Germanic metre; but of their earliest oral poetry, probably used for panegyric, magic, and short narrative, little or none survives. For nearly a century after the conversion of King Aethelberht I of Kent to Christianity about 600, there is no evidence that the English wrote poetry in their own language. But St. Bede the Venerable, in his Historia ecclesiastica gentis Anglorum ("Ecclesiastical History of the English People"), wrote that in the late 7th century Caedmon, an illiterate Northumbrian cowherd, was inspired in a dream to compose a short hymn in praise of the creation. Caedmon later composed verses based on Scripture, which was expounded for him by monks at Streaneshalch (now called Whitby), but only the "Hymn of Creation" survives. Caedmon legitimized the native verse form by adapting it to Christian themes. Others, following his example, gave England a body of vernacular poetry unparalleled in Europe before the end of the 1st millennium.
Alliterative verse
Virtually all Old English poetry is written in a single metre, a four-stress line with a syntactical break, or caesura, between the second and third stresses, and with alliteration linking the two halves of the line; this pattern is occasionally varied by six-stress lines. The poetry is formulaic, drawing on a common set of stock phrases and phrase patterns, applying standard epithets to various classes of characters, and depicting scenery with such recurring images as the eagle and the wolf, which wait during battles to feast on carrion, and ice and snow, which appear in the landscape to signal sorrow. In the best poems such formulas, far from being tedious, give a strong impression of the richness of the cultural fund from which poets could draw. Other standard devices of this poetry are the kenning, a figurative name for a thing, usually expressed in a compound noun (e.g., swan-road used to name the sea); and variation, the repeating of a single idea in different words, with each repetition adding a new level of meaning. That these verse techniques changed little during 400 years of literary production suggests the extreme conservatism of Anglo-Saxon culture.
The major manuscripts
Most Old English poetry is preserved in four manuscripts of the late 10th and early 11th centuries. The Beowulf manuscript (British Library) contains Beowulf, Judith, and three prose tracts; the Exeter Book (Exeter Cathedral) is a miscellaneous gathering of lyrics, riddles, didactic poems, and religious narratives; the Junius Manuscript (Bodleian Library, Oxford)—also called the Caedmon Manuscript, even though its contents are no longer attributed to Caedmon—contains biblical paraphrases; and the Vercelli Book (found in the cathedral library in Vercelli, Italy) contains saints' lives, several short religious poems, and prose homilies. In addition to the poems in these books are historical poems in the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle; poetic renderings of Psalms 51–150; the 31 "Metres" included in King Alfred the Great's translation of Boethius's De consolatione philosophiae (Consolation of Philosophy); magical, didactic, elegiac, and heroic poems; and others, miscellaneously interspersed with prose, jotted in margins, and even worked in stone or metal.
Problems of dating
Few poems can be dated as closely as Caedmon's "Hymn." King Alfred's compositions fall into the late 9th century, and Bede composed his "Death Song" within 50 days of his death on May 25, 735. Historical poems such as "The Battle of Brunanburh" (after 937) and "The Battle of Maldon" (after 991) are fixed by the dates of the events they commemorate. A translation of one of Aldhelm's riddles is found not only in the Exeter Book but also in an early 9th-century manuscript at Leiden, Neth. And at least a part of "The Dream of the Rood" can be dated by an excerpt carved on the 8th-century Ruthwell Cross (in Dumfriesshire, Scot.). But in the absence of such indications, Old English poems are hard to date, and the scholarly consensus that most were composed in the Midlands and the North in the 8th and 9th centuries gave way to uncertainty during the last two decades of the 20th century. Many now hold that "The Wanderer," Beowulf, and other poems once assumed to have been written in the 8th century are of the 9th century or later. For most poems, there is no scholarly consensus beyond the belief that they were written between the 8th and the 11th centuries.
Religious verse
If few poems can be dated accurately, still fewer can be attributed to particular poets. The most important author from whom a considerable body of work survives is Cynewulf, who wove his runic signature into the epilogues of four poems. Aside from his name, little is known of him; he probably lived in the 9th century in Mercia or Northumbria. His works include The Fates of the Apostles, a short martyrology; The Ascension (also called Christ II), a homily and biblical narrative; Juliana, a saint's passion set in the reign of the Roman emperor Maximian (late 3rd century ad); and Elene, perhaps the best of his poems, which describes the mission of St. Helena, mother of the emperor Constantine, to recover Christ's cross. Cynewulf's work is lucid and technically elegant; his theme is the continuing evangelical mission from the time of Christ to the triumph of Christianity under Constantine. Several poems not by Cynewulf are associated with him because of their subject matter. These include two lives of St. Guthlac and Andreas; the latter, the apocryphal story of how St. Andrew fell into the hands of the cannibalistic (and presumably mythical) Mermedonians, has stylistic affinities with Beowulf. Also in the "Cynewulf group" are several poems with Christ as their subject, of which the most important is "The Dream of the Rood," in which the cross speaks of itself as Christ's loyal thane and yet the instrument of his death. This tragic paradox echoes a recurring theme of secular poetry and at the same time movingly expresses the religious paradoxes of Christ's triumph in death and humankind's redemption from sin.
Several poems of the Junius Manuscript are based on the Old Testament narratives Genesis, Exodus, and Daniel. Of these, Exodus is remarkable for its intricate diction and bold imagery. The fragmentary Judith of the Beowulf Manuscript stirringly embellishes the story from the Apocrypha of the heroine who led the Jews to victory over the Assyrians.
Elegiac and heroic verse
The term elegy is used of Old English poems that lament the loss of worldly goods, glory, or human companionship. "The Wanderer" is narrated by a man, deprived of lord and kinsmen, whose journeys lead him to the realization that there is stability only in heaven. "The Seafarer" is similar, but its journey motif more explicitly symbolizes the speaker's spiritual yearnings. Several others have similar themes, and three elegies—"The Husband's Message," "The Wife's Lament," and "Wulf and Eadwacer"—describe what appears to be a conventional situation: the separation of husband and wife by the husband's exile.
"Deor" bridges the gap between the elegy and the heroic poem, for in it a poet laments the loss of his position at court by alluding to sorrowful stories from Germanic legend. Beowulf itself narrates the battles of Beowulf, a prince of the Geats (a tribe in what is now southern Sweden), against the monstrous Grendel, Grendel's mother, and a fire-breathing dragon. The account contains some of the best elegiac verse in the language, and, by setting marvelous tales against a historical background in which victory is always temporary and strife is always renewed, the poet gives the whole an elegiac cast. Beowulf also is one of the best religious poems, not only because of its explicitly Christian passages but also because Beowulf's monstrous foes are depicted as God's enemies and Beowulf himself as God's champion. Other heroic narratives are fragmentary. Of "The Battle of Finnsburh" and "Waldere" only enough remains to indicate that, when whole, they must have been fast-paced and stirring.
Of several poems dealing with English history and preserved in the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle, the most notable is "The Battle of Brunanburh," a panegyric on the occasion of King Athelstan's victory over a coalition of Norsemen and Scots in 937. But the best historical poem is not from the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle. "The Battle of Maldon," which describes the defeat of Aldorman Byrhtnoth and much of his army at the hands of Viking invaders in 991, discovers in defeat an occasion to celebrate the heroic ideal, contrasting the determination of many of Byrhtnoth's thanes to avenge his death or die in the attempt with the cowardice of others who left the field. Minor poetic genres include catalogs (two sets of "Maxims" and "Widsith," a list of rulers, tribes, and notables in the heroic age), dialogues, metrical prefaces and epilogues to prose works of the Alfredian period, and liturgical poems associated with the Benedictine Office.

Before adding to this topic, I'd just like to say that I have nothing against any of the "build-from-source" distros. There is a wealth of good information in, for instance, some of the Gentoo forums and I do appreciate the effort that others have put into them. Getting back to the topic, I often hear the "if you compile from scratch with FOO optimizations/settings turned on, then you'll see BAR improvement" where BAR is typically expressed as some very hazy value or is merely stated as "a lot!" with overuse of the shift keys and no benchmarks in sight. So I'm calling "baloney". Over the years, I've (re-)compiled a number of applications including many different types of math/physics models and, when using the *same* compiler with *typical* distro flags, I have yet to see appreciable (that is, greater than 10%) improvements. And when I say *typical* please understand that the default compiler flags for many distros (e.g., Fedora) are already "-O2 -march=...". At the same time, I have routinely seen >10% differences (sometimes much more) when using two or more different compilers on certain architectures and/or codes (e.g., comparing different versions of GCC or one version of GCC vs. an Intel compiler). And so have many others: http://www.ddj.com/184405641 http://www.coyotegulch.com/reviews/linux_compilers/index.html http://www.polyhedron.com/pb05-linux-f90bench_p40html Yet we don't see folks building distros using, say, the PGI or Intel or PathScale compilers. If someone is actually doing that (and it works), then please speak up... So why are these rumors (that is, the advantage of from-source vs. pre-built distros) so persistent when its so hard to find any reputable evidence? I have a theory. Call me a cynical BOFH, but I think a lot of folks get very excited about the prospect of "tweaking" things. They want to believe that going from -O2 to -O3 will be a big difference because, well, theirs goes to "11". And they are not interested in rational/ repeatable measurements which will, I'll wager, likely show that their additional compile times (and effort) will never be won back by the amortized effect of such minuscule gains. But maybe I'm just turning into a cynical old man. Maybe I should abandon rational thought and concentrate on having fun pimping my ride. :-) Ed ps - Please, if you are going to take issue with this post then by all means bring with you some actual benchmark numbers that we can reproduce on our laptops and desktops. Bonus points if you can write a script that does a semi-decent job of automating such a benchmark. -- Edward H.

NSA Supercenters to Store Americans' Private Data Permanently
Written by Thomas R. Eddlem
Wednesday, 28 October 2009 08:30
The National Security Agency is building huge new storage facilities to store the unconstitutionally gained data on the American people's telephone calls and Internet traffic permanently, including new buildings in suburban Salt Lake City, Utah, and San Antonio, Texas.
The NSA has been keeping permanent records of all American's telephone call habits and Internet traffic since shortly after September 11, 2001, according to major news reports, without the constitutionally required warrants from a court.
No longer able to store all the intercepted phone calls and e-mail in its Ft. Meade, Maryland, headquarters, the NSA is engaging in its own housing boom. How much data will these giant, multibillion dollar new facilities hold? According to James Bamford of the New York Review of Books, the facility in Utah alone could hold data that will be measured in Yottabytes. Never heard of Yottabytes? You're not alone. Most computers sold at stores still measure their storage at gigabytes, or billions of bits of data. A few store a terrabyte of information, or one trillion bits of information. That's 1,000,000,000,000 pieces of information. Yottabytes is the highest number that has yet been named in computer information. The number is septillions of billions of bits of data, or 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 bits of data.
In his review of Matthew M. Aid's new book on the NSA, The Secret Sentry: The Untold History of the National Security Agency, Bamford noted that the NSA assault on the Constitution's Fourth Amendment has taken place without public opposition or even public debate. "Unlike the British government, which, to its great credit, allowed public debate on the idea of a central data bank," Bamford wrote, "the NSA obtained the full cooperation of much of the American telecom industry in utmost secrecy after September 11." And when the British government held that debate, the people rose up against such a "big brother"-style plan:
When the plans were released by the UK government, there was an immediate outcry from both the press and the public, leading to the scrapping of the "big brother database," as it was called. In its place, however, the government came up with a new plan. Instead of one vast, centralized database, the telecom companies and Internet service providers would be required to maintain records of all details about people's phone, e-mail, and Web-browsing habits for a year and to permit the government access to them when asked. That has led again to public anger and to a protest by the London Internet Exchange, which represents more than 330 telecommunications firms.
Not so in America, where economically challenged communities are welcoming the multibillion dollar construction work to create the facilities. Freedom can be traded for temporary prosperity, according to local officials in Utah, as reported by a news segment on KSL, Salt Lake City's NBC affiliate.
"The data center is estimated to be 1 million square feet, sitting on 200-acres, and it couldn't come at a better time for Utah's economy," KSL reported, and will cost taxpayers nearly $2 billion. The report went on to enthuse that "even Congressman Jason Chaffetz is excited. From Washington he told KSL News: 'It's a benefit to our economy and our national security.'"
In San Antonio, the NSA is dramatically expanding an existing facility rather than creating a new one. San Antonio Current writer Greg M. Schwartz explained how the expanded facility would be 470,000 square feet, almost the size of the Alamodome. Schwartz revealed that San Antonio officials actually courted the NSA, sending trade delegations to Ft. Meade to win the expansion. "The new facility is a potential boon to the local economy since it's reportedly going to employ around 1,500 people," Schwartz noted, "but questions remain about whether there will be adequate oversight to prevent civil-rights violations like Uncle Sam's recent notorious warrantless wiretapping program." Actually, there's no honest question about that. Schwartz is just politely saying in journalistic kant that, like Salt Lake City, San Antonio expects to profit from the destruction of the Constitution's Bill of Rights. Temporarily, anyway.
Schwartz got a personal dose of the destruction of the Bill of Rights while preparing his story for the San Antonio Current. "Readers are advised not to take any photos unless you care to be detained for at least a 45-minute interrogation by the National Security Agency, as this reporter was," Schwartz wrote. The security guards asked, but did not demand, that Schwartz destroy photos he had taken of the facility.
They didn't take his camera — this time, that is.
Of course, if the NSA is free to ignore one part of the Bill of Rights, the Fourth Amendment prohibition on searches without court warrants and probable cause, what security can Americans have in preventing the NSA from ignoring the other parts of the Constitution … such as freedom of the press under the First Amendment?

Israel News - Stay Informed, Pray Informed
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Saturday warned the Hamas terror group that it shouldn't get too comfortable following what many saw as a premature end to Israel's military campaign in Gaza last month.
"We inflicted a very heavy blow" in response to Hamas' rocket fire on southern Israel, Netanyahu told Israel's Channel 10 News. "We destroyed almost all of their long-range rockets. But I'm telling you that the Israeli army is preparing to strike a still heavier blow. Our account with Hamas is not closed."
The remarks came as part of a round of media interviews ahead of next month's general election. Netanyahu is trying to position himself and his Likud Party as the very best choice for Israelis who are concerned about their security.
Netanyahu was also asked about his peace agenda following the election (all polls indicate that Netanyahu will be Israel's next prime minister), and if he intends to reopen negotiations with the Palestinian Authority.
"If we have a peace partner," was the Israeli leader's response.
Netanyahu noted that in the first several years of his current premiership, he tried to conduct peace talks, but was constantly rebuffed by Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas.
"You should ask Abbas why he refuses to negotiate," Netanyahu summed up.

Finding specific information, such as a routing number or current rates, on some credit union websites can be like searching for a needle in a haystack, even when it's in plain sight.
Some sites don't even have a search box. Those that do, often lack essential functionality.
That's a problem, experts say, because inaccurate or inadequate information on a website can jam other channels, slam the call center, spur complaints and create compliance problems.
"As account holders use more banking channels, access to consistent, accurate information has grown in importance for our bank and credit union clients," said Joe Trafton, senior vice president and chief strategic officer at Avon, Conn.-based core processor COCC, which recently partnered with SilverCloud Inc., a Portsmouth, N.H.-based software developer and SaaS firm, to help credit unions harness the power of shared knowledge to improve communication.
Dynamic knowledge databases, such as SilverCloud's latest offering, Tempest, can help organizations maintain clarity, accuracy and transparency across all channels, and to comply with emerging CFPB requirements and initiatives, said Scott Cornell, CEO at SilverCloud.
"The CFPB wants FIs to track and analyze issues – and to then be proactive," Cornell said.
Tempest, an enhancement of SilverCloud's Breeze platform, can be embedded in websites to replace traditional search boxes, and integrated into social media and mobile banking channels, Cornell said.
Tempest, which features customizable templates that cover 20 different topics and the most popular inquiries from CFPB databases, also captures, centralizes, manages and analyzes complaints, the company said.
Users pose questions in a natural and intuitive manner. The platform also integrates products such as loan applications.
Meanwhile, Portal provider Passageways of West Lafayette, Ind., has enabled more than 300 credit unions and other organizations to provide instantaneous answers to thousands of users.
By implementing dynamic FAQs and other enterprise collaboration systems, credit unions can experience significant gains in member service, operational efficiency and revenue, said Paroon Chadha, co-founder and CEO of Passageways.
In August, the NCUA's Office of Small Credit Union Initiatives introduced FAQ+, a search engine powered by SilverCloud.
And Central Florida Educators FCU said SilverCloud's search engine helped the $1.4 billion co-op in Lake Mary, Fla., to cut call center costs, improved customer service and delivered these benefits:
$72,000 average yearly savings,
55% reduction in emails received,
15% lower call volume; and
5% average member growth.
High call center volume also prompted Smart Financial Credit Union in Houston to partner with SilverCloud in 2009, said Michael Warrell, who was senior vice president of member services at the $334 million Smart Financial when it launched Breeze.
Warrell, who is currently chief operations officer at the $318 million Community Resource Credit Union in Baytown, Texas, said, "We're in the process of budgeting for SilverCloud and doing due diligence, with the goal of rolling it out in the second quarter of 2014," he said.
At Smart Financial, he said, the platform significantly reduced call center volume.
"We were averaging 100,000 calls per year, but we were able to reduce call volume by 20 to 25% by improving the way members could search our website," Warrell said.
To encourage members to use the new dynamic search engine, Smart Financial launched a direct mail and email marketing campaign that targeted members who frequently contacted the call center.
"The biggest challenge was getting the membership to understand that they could get the answers to thousands of financial questions by going to our website," Warrell recalled. "Once they tried the search engine, the adoption rate went through the roof."
Another benefit, he said, is that credit unions only have to make changes in one area in order to make updates in real time on all channels.

Trimingham describes how to build incredible looking grayscale prints on dark garments
There are lots of ways to create separations for prints on dark shirts, but very few really make the graphic jump off of the garment with the least amount of work. The best prints on dark garments use the garment to a degree to darken the shadows in the image, and it always is a bonus if the printed area feels light to the touch.
Without printing discharge or water-based inks, the best way to create a softer feeling shirt is to change the printing order on some of the separations so that there is less ink going down and still a sense of brightness to the image. It is possible to achieve both of these objectives by using a style of printing and separation that many printers tend to avoid. This style is very useful particularly when printing and separating grayscale images on dark shirts because it can really help to create the deep shadows in an image with having the colors all be completely under printed with a white ink. The lower ink volume is what really gives the shirt its incredible look and feel.
The trick to building an unconventional grayscale print on a dark garment is to follow a simple three-step process. First, you extract the grayscale base part of the image. Second, you decide if you need a bump plate or color overlay. Finally, you pull out the highlighted white areas and review the work in a digital proof.
Before you start
The same process that is used in high-end, detailed separations in multiple colors when you begin the file preparations is also used for quick grayscale separations. It is critical to check the file to make certain it is the right size (actual size of the final output) and a decent resolution (at least 150-300 dpi) prior to starting the separation process. If you need to adjust other things about the file, it is always better to do so prior to separation—examples include typography, edge quality in the design, and the overall tonal range. Once everything is adjusted or clarified, then the separations can be started.
