text: AT&T preps skinny TV bundle DetailsMichelle Clancy | 21 April 2018 US comms giant AT&T is planning to launch AT&T Watch, an OTT skinny TV service, in the coming weeks.According to AT&T chairman and CEO Randall Stephenson's anti-trust trial testimony for the pending AT&T-Time Warner merger, it would be a sports-free service that will go for $15 per month. It will be free to customers on its unlimited mobile service plans.Skinny TV has been good for AT&T so far: In its Q4 results, it said that the DIRECTV NOW service surpassed the one-million subscriber mark in the US. Over the year, there were 368,000 DIRECTV NOW net adds to reach nearly 1.2 million subs.AT&T also said in a pretrial brief that the combination with Time Warner, which is on ice after the Department of Justice officially moved to block it, would enable AT&T to bring those content assets to its wireless platform to "develop new and more valuable services especially for mobile video devices."It would "launch a new service with Turner and a small number of popular cable networks, which would be made available for free to AT&T's wireless customers on unlimited plans and for a nominal price to anyone else."The DOJ is arguing that if AT&T, the nation's largest pay-TV company, acquires Time Warner - the third largest media company worldwide and owner of HBO, Turner Broadcasting, CNN and the Warner Bros studio - it would gain too much control over programming and distribution, and potentially represent an antitrust situation. The fear is that the merged company's size would be such that it would impede competition from online video distributors and raise content prices on its rivals on the distribution side - all of which would translate into higher prices for consumers.

Reported News on Black Rhino Male Enhancement Exposed
Rhino 51 may be able to give a lot of information on their website, Zyacin but the info given is not what many users want to create an educated choice. It is a whole new product in the market that's beginning to deal in business along with the giant brands in the field. Rhino 7 is a penile enlargement supplement which has gained wide recognition in quite a quick period of time. It may also be used on a consistent basis to sustain the optimal problem of readiness before sex. New Rhino also provides another male sexual enhancement drug that is a lot lower cost that is well worth checking out.
The New Angle On Black Rhino Male Enhancement Just Released
Rhino Black Plus is a strong male sexual enhancement pill that's formulated for weekly use. Black Plus is a strong supplement that only should be taken once weekly. Rhino Black Plus may also be purchased through Cambridge LSAT.
Unfortunately side effects are typical. Among the unintended side effects could possibly be an increase in male stamina in the bedroom. Some side effects of Rhino-Mist might not be reported.
Men simply have a capsule roughly thirty minutes prior to sexual activity for the additional burst of electricity and blood flow they want. In years past if a man wasn't naturally gifted in the field of male endowment or male enhancement, he had few choices. It's been said that a man's capacity to carry out sexually is more important than his capacity to make a living. It isn't important if you're a younger man and wish to discover a supplement to make you bigger and maximize your penis size potential, or in case you're an older man seeking to end your erectile troubles and you're researching natural supplements that may get the job done for you. Men that are looking for an alternative to costly well-known male sexual enhancement drugs might need to think about trying Black Plus.
If you're using any other supplement in addition to the Black Pure Herb, don't forget to separate them with a minumum of one hour. It might also be taken as a normal supplement so as to keep the best condition in being ready right before sex. This penile enhancement supplement comes in the shape of a capsule. For those men who are looking for a penile enhancement supplement which works similar to Viagara, but lacking the drug associated price tag, Rhino 51 is among the alternatives that are available to you.
Since you will soon discover there are lots of products which are exceptionally engineered and can give a fantastic deal of sexual enhancement. For those people who are interested in purchasing this item, or trying it, there's an absolutely free sample offer that's provided through the company's website when a code is entered at checkout. What's more, you need to use the product on a normal basis to guarantee readiness for sex and optimal condition. A great deal of goods make guarantees in this way, so let's take a close look. When it has to do with finding a product which works, male enhancement is among the toughest categories out there. As it happens, there are some products out there which truly do get great user benefits. Some say they've tried multiple penile enlargement products before and VIDUR is among the few that works.

I seem to be in a crafting rut. Well, maybe more accurate is I seem to be in a crafting rut when it comes to the craft projects I actually complete and photograph :)
Remember when I made these finger puppets to send to a little friend of mine? Well, I wanted to start making a few for Adelaide to build up her little collection. For some reason I wanted to do bugs, probably because I was inspired by this cute little swimmer. So here's what I made:
A book worm, a lady bug and a bee. The photo didn't turn out very well but the bee has hand stitched detailing on the wings.
Anyhow, I have a few crafties I want to tackle to get me out of my rut. For fun here is what I am cooking up:
1) I want to sew a nursing cover as a gift for a friend (I have a beautiful Amy Butler fabric and everything...I just need to you know, sew it)
2) I want to embroider a bib necklace to add some edge to my summer wardrobe and try some new color combos.
3) I need to sew some curtains for the little miss's window in her room. I have the fabric and style picked out I just need to go buy the fabric and sew the panel up. Details, details.
I think that's it for now...What are you dreaming up in the way of summer projects?

Getting Educated, Turning Sweet
Today was a big day here. Shortly before 8 this morning two elves
came knocking on my door. They asked to use my phone. Something
about needing a jump start for a Gremlin. They were cute. I
let them in. Big mistake. Before I knew it, I was being given
the talking to of my life.
Not wanting my ass kicked, I spent the rest of the day doing my best to
get into the "peace on earth, good will towards men" thing.

Things I Missed, And Didn't
Apparently, there was a meteor shower last night. Google's meteroed logo probably should've been a hint. Reading Neil Gaiman's post about having a moment watching 28 stars fall made me feel sad for a moment to have missed it, but then I was happy again because space is very big and bits of it will keep running into us for a long time to come. Until a really big bit runs into us, of course.
Many days ago, perhaps a month's worth, I was in Oxford and it was raining. I ducked into Square Books, Jr. for dryness and the magic of books written for children and adults who haven't forgotten. Displayed prominently was a collection called, Geektastic, which contains the writings of Kelly Link, Holly Black, and many other variously geeky people. Holly Black and Cecil Castelluci (also the editors) wrote the first story, a tale of forbidden love between a Jedi and Klingon. It seemed like it would rain for a while so I read that story and enjoyed it quite a bit. At one point, a brawl breaks out between a bevy of Star Warsians and Trekkies. At another, someone's heart gets broken. The collection was mentioned today here, as part of Gavin at Small Beer updating us on the current whereabouts of many of Kelly Link's stories. Most interesting, or at least exhaustive, was this collection by Peter Straub called, American Fantastic Tales: Terror and the Uncanny from the 1940s Until Now. Kelly's "Stone Animals" makes an appearance.
And now, very near me (I am at Panera), there is a man chanting about, "Catch him do it, Catch his tail, Catch him, Catch Him, Turn out the gun." I had hoped to make mention of the wonders of watching with my mom the Paul Greengrass commentary for The Bourne Ultimatum. But this is too weird and even though now he's stopped, I find myself oddly hungry.
Things to ponder until tomorrow: How does The Bourne Identity trilogy mirror the American experience after 9/11? How is it a ghost story? What will I look like with my new glasses?
Until then, readers, try not to miss it. Whatever it is.

When I was little, things were a kinda crazy. My mother was depressed and rarely left her room except to go to work. My father worked a lot and then partied hard. One morning we woke up and my mother was gone, leaving my Dad with 4 kids. My 2 brothers were technically my step brothers, though I have never thought of them that way, and so because of that they went off on their own or were taken in by others in their family. I don't really know. I was very young and wasn't privy to how everything went down once Mom disappeared. To this day, I have never really asked about that time in their lives. We aren't very close unfortunately and I'm not good at asking about something that seems like it would've been a painful time in their lives. I know it was for me. I don't really talk about it myself except to my sister.
After my Mom was gone, everything went haywire, but my Dad tried to keep things together. We were homeless for awhile living in our car. Sometimes we would get enough money from lord knows where to stay in cheap motels. I was so small, my favorite place to sleep was either on the floor under the glove box in our car or in two chairs pushed together in the motel room. My sister and I were good at coming up with our own imaginary games to keep us busy wherever we were. One of our favorites when we stayed in a motel, was to imagine we were spies. The patterns in the carpets were filled with "booby traps". We were only allowed to only step on certain shapes or clear areas. We peeked around corners with our finger guns raised before going around them. It was a blast. I still think about it every time I go on vacation and find myself in a motel. The hotels of today have so much more to work with than the motels of old.
When I was with my sister, everything was okay. But there were times when we were separated. I didn't like to be separated from her for too long. It made me anxious. Sometimes it still does. My sister loved to run when we were little and boy was she fast. We used to go to Chrissy field in San Francisco or somewhere in that vicinity (my memory isn't completely clear) and my Dad would just let her run. Somehow, she got entered into a marathon. I was not a runner and so I didn't participate. The day she ran the marathon (I wish I remember which one it was), my Dad and I sat and listened to music. I was having a really hard time because I was anxious about being away from my sister and about everything that was going on in our family. I only wanted to listen to one song over and over. Blues Skies by Willie Nelson. My Dad seemed to sense my need and though it must have driven him crazy, he let me listen to that song repeatedly for what seemed like hours. The words soaked into my brain and calmed the buzzing inside. I must've been maybe 4 or 5 at the time and I just kept listening.
Blue skies smiling' at me
Nothin' but blue skies do I see
Blue days all of them gone
Nothin' but blue skies from now on
The melody moved through me relaxing my muscles and making me forget for a little while. All I thought about was laying in the grass on a clear sunny day looking up at the bright blue sky and smiling.

BINGHAM — A spark from a cutting torch started a quick-spreading fire Wednesday that damaged Jimmy's Market on U.S. Route 201 and closed the only grocery store in town.
The torch was being used by a contractor working on an addition to the grocery store and the spark ignited foam insulation around 11 a.m., said Chief Deputy James Ross of the Somerset County Sheriff's Office.
"Deputy (Joe) Jackson and the Bingham Fire Department did an amazing job in their quick response in getting the fire quickly stopped and under control in what could have been a disastrous fire," Ross said in an email.
There was minimal damage to the store, according to Bingham Assistant Fire Chief Pat Read, who said there were no injuries reported.
Even so, the store was evacuated and remained closed Wednesday afternoon, and it was not clear when it would reopen. Owner Todd West did not immediately return a call seeking comment Wednesday.
The store is independently owned, but sells Hannaford-brand products, according to the store's website.
Read said he was not sure whether the store had insurance or how much the damage would cost to repair.
On Wednesday afternoon the parking lot was blocked off and a fan was circulating air through the front doors of the store. Signs on the front door read, "Store closed due to fire."
Ross credited a recent training Jackson had completed with the Office of the Maine State Fire Marshal related to fire investigation and analysis with helping to determine the cause of the fire. The training helps law enforcement officers assist in investigating "less suspicious fires in the area," Ross said.
He said that Jackson also consulted with the fire marshal's office at the scene and members of the Bingham Fire Department to determine the cause. The Solon Fire Department also responded to the fire.

to heart and soul
so hand and voice
can yield a poem.
2 comments:
Oh yes, I understand completely this writing. I ften think it in this way..ReplyDelete
I've had writers blog for quite some time now which is why I basically post poems from my archives in the past. I hope my creativity comes back if and when I get my life settled and off the survival mode in order to live. It's as if I've lost a huge part of "me" of who I really am and all about..it's not a good feeling to feel that space crowded up with so much "stuff".
I always have hope and look forward to that part of me coming back again. The most important part of me which I so "cherish".
Rhi, Thanks for your comment. You'll notice I too have posted quite a few from the past lately too. This time in late winter gets me down a bit. I'm looking forward to the new life and new light of Spring. Creativity is why we are here.ReplyDelete

On their cross-country peregrinations, Addison Airport is a frequent stop for U.S. Navy F-18s. When the weather and traffic at the airport allow, they arrive in a fashion unlike that of civilian aircraft. The jet (or jets) enter the traffic pattern by flying directly over the runway, reverse their direction with a snappy 180-degree turn in a steep bank, followed by another 180-degree turn that puts them on final approach to the runway.
It may look like showboating, but it's the safest, most efficient way to get a number of airplanes on the ground in the shortest amount of time and it minimizes the time the jet flies at slower speeds. That snappy turn is the break, and the steep bank angle increase the g forces on the airplane, which gobbles up its forward energy, or speed.
As described by the F-18 NATOPS (aircraft operating flight) manual, at the break the pilot reduces thrust and deploys the speed brake as needed during the downwind turn. "As the airspeed decreases through 250 knots, lower the landing gear and place the FLAP switch to FULL and ensure that speed brake is retracted."
From their first day of training, naval aviators are taught to control airspeed by angle of attack (AOA), which is controlled by pitching the nose up or down. Power determines altitude; with a set airspeed (AOA), adding power results in a climb and reducing it establishes a descent. If the jet sinks below the desired final approach glide path, the aviator corrects this by adding power, which is why the engines' volume sometimes changes on final approach.
An AOA indicator in the aviator's field of view coincides with the desired on-speed for landing. NATOPS says: "On-speed without external stores and 2,000 pounds of internal fuel is about 125 knots [144 mph]. Add about 2.5 knots for each 1,000 pounds increase in fuel and stores." Final approach concludes with "a firm touchdown at least 500 feet past the runway threshold."
That "firm touchdown" is another hallmark of naval aviation. If it looks like the aviator is flying the airplane into the runway without flaring to land, that is essentially what he or she is doing. And it's for a good reason; it assures that the jet will put its main wheels—and tailhook—on the deck in a small area defined by an aircraft carrier's arresting wires, known as cross deck pendants. This touchdown accuracy has reduced the number of arresting cables the Navy is installing on its new aircraft carriers, starting with the USS Ronald Reagan and USS George H.W. Bush, and all the new Gerald R. Ford-class carriers will also have three wires.
When approaching an aircraft carrier, F-18s and other carrier-borne aircraft fly a traffic pattern similar to the overhead approach they make to Addison Airport. There are two significant differences, however, First, Addison's Runway 15/33 is not steaming away from the jet as it makes its final approach, and it is not heaving up and down in proportion to the seas the boat is driving through. The second is best described by NATOPS:
8.2.16 Arrested Landing and Exit From the Landing Area. Fly the aircraft on the glideslope and ON-SPEED all the way to touchdown. Advance the throttles to MIL as the aircraft touches down. When forward motion has ceased reduce power to IDLE and allow the aircraft to roll aft. Apply brakes on signal.
MIL is full military power, with afterburners, which ensures that the jet will have the necessary thrust for flight should the tailhook fail to snag a wire, which is known as a bolter. Once off the deck, the aviator reenters the pattern for another attempt.
Ashore or afloat, to save time, a lead jet and its wingman will often enter the pattern together and then break for the turn for landing at different times. At their approach speeds, a few seconds provides the necessary spacing intervals. This works with any number of airplanes, as the Navy's Blue Angels demonstrate. The only aspect of it that is not standard operating procedure is the six-ship delta formation. Otherwise, the overhead approach and break to landing is right out of NATOPS, just like the F-18s fly on their arrival at Addison Airport.

IMPHAL, Jan 16: '˜Mirel Mashing-gha', a production of Kanglei Mime Theatre Repertory will be staged on January 21 at Delhi's Sri Ram Centre, where the 13th Bharat Ranga Mahotsav (Theatre Festival) organized by National School of Drama (NSD), New Delhi is currently on.
The festival had begun on January 8.
Speaking to newspersons at his Yumnam Leikai residence today Director of the theatre group Yumnam Sadananda stated that '˜Mirel Mashing-gha' will be the first mime play to be staged at a National level theatre festival organized by the NSD.
Further informing that over 400 theatre groups had applied for participation at the Bharat Ranga Mahotsav, considered to be one of the country's grandest event, the director maintained that Kanglei Mime Theatre Repertory's '˜Mirel Mashing-ga' is the only mime play among 70 groups approved by the festival's selection committee.
Led by the Director himself, artistes of the theatre group will leave Imphal on January 18 to stage '˜Mirel Mashing-ga' a mime play which is based on the relentless campaign by Irom Chanu Sharmila for complete withdrawal of the draconian Armed Forces' Special Powers Act 1958 from Manipur.
The mime play is to be staged on the 19th day of the Festival at 4.30 pm.
Responding to a scribe's poser, Sadananda said '˜Mirel Mashing-ga' has already been staged at the Mahindra Excellence in Theatre Festival organized by Mahindra Company at New Delhi's Sri Ram Centre in March last year after the play was dedicated to the State audience at some places.

On 19 June 2017, the Directorate General of Taxes of Indonesia (DGT) issued the long-awaited revised regulation on claiming benefits under Indonesian tax treaties (i.e. Regulation No.PER-10/PJ/2017) (Regulation 10/2017), which will apply from 1 August 2017.
Major changes brought about by Regulation 10/2017 include: (i) removal of the "subject to tax" requirement; (ii) the strengthened anti-treaty abuse rules and (iii) the revised Certificate of Domicile forms prescribed by the DGT (i.e. revised Forms DGT-1 and DGT-2).
We applaud the HKSAR Government's continued efforts in liaising with Indonesia on the "subject to tax requirement" issue. While removal of the "subject to tax" requirement in the Indonesian domestic anti-treaty abuse rules will eliminate a major hurdle for Hong Kong tax residents to apply the HK-Indonesia tax treaty, they should not lose sight on the more stringent substance requirement and enhanced beneficial ownership (BO) test introduced by Regulation 10/2017. This is particularly true when the Hong Kong tax resident company is acting as an intermediary for investing into Indonesia (e.g. a Chinese company investing into Indonesia through a Hong Kong company). In addition, Hong Kong resident companies should keep an eye on the interpretation and application of the new substance requirement and BO test by the Indonesian tax authority in practice as that will be crucial to a successful treaty benefit claim.

A cone will be constructed from a circle of given radius. The object is to cut a sector from the circle and form a right circular cone of maximum volume. The volume of the cone will depend upon the angle of the sector removed and the radius of the original circle. These variables will be determined during the project. The calculator document accompanies a project assignment and explains the construction of the cone and leads the student through the process of building a volume function.
The project introduction (steps 1-8) may be done as a team or together as a class. Students should actually take a circle and construct a cone to give a more clear understanding of how the cone is formed.
The tns document will enhance understanding of the project steps 9-12. The building of a volume function will be detailed through discovery and question/response method on the calculator screen.
The scoring rubric is included in the project sheet already attached.

text: "House Democrats booed Bernie Sanders during a closed meeting Wednesday. The Los Angeles Times reports the lawmakers shouted `Timeline! Timeline!` at Sanders, demanding to know when he plans to bow out of the presidential race and endorse his rival, Hillary Clinton. Sanders said the goal should be less about winning elections and more about changing the country. Some Democrats were pressuring Sanders to drop out even before Clinton officially secured the party`s nomination in the beginning of June." AOL Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton are the most despised and distrusted candidates ever to square off in the general election. Bernie Sanders on the other hand is admired and respected even by conservatives who consider his socialist ideology anathema. Sanders ran a disciplined and civilized campaign based on issues, not on personal attacks. Sanders even refrained from attacking Hillary on the email scandal -- he wanted the media and the public`s attention focused on income inequality, universal health care, climate change, free college tuition and racial inequality. When Sanders returned to the Senate he should have been welcomed back as a hero who championed the concerns of the poor and working class. instead in a closed door meeting House democrats heaped disdain and contempt on the only candidate, Republican or Democrat, who had the interest of the people at heart. There are rumors that Sanders will formally endorse Hillary in a matter of days, I hope the Vermont senator will stick to his vow to continue his campaign up to the Democratic National Convention at the end of July.

Thanks guys... We are definitely going to try for outside and hope it shines
I wouldn't get married outside period! Go with the church and have no worries. But if you must, I would suggest that you get something in writting.
Be careful!! Make sure you read everying before signing a contract or rental agreement. Make sure there is something written in that will cover you in the event of a washout! Good Luck!!

New species for area
Tipping it down outside so will continue with latest bird sightings. Yesterday saw Coal Tit added to the list as well as Grey Wagtail. There were 2 Wagtails and last year they bred at the sight and think they are this year too. Over the 4 visits I have done recently I have seen 30 species, quite pleased with that as seen so much other interesting things as well.
Record photo
Best I could get
Not my best photo but only one that shows 2 birds.
Very bright day yesterday, think I might need
some kind of filter but pleased overall.

Stood up by the visiting nurse.
Today is a big day - tonight at 10 I take the last of the very annoying brain spasm prevention meds, the ones that I had to take every 4 hours, which meant I had to wake up and take the damn things at 2 a.m. Now I'm just on anti-seizure meds at bedtime, and those help me sleep.
I am bored and cranky, and my vision has not improved, I can see to function, but reading small print is a pain. My friend L is going to pick me up on Sunday and take me out to lunch, because I am not cleared to drive and I've got cabin fever.
I'm able to knit if it's something really basic, like a ribbed cap for Dulaan, or a stockinette sweater.
I've poked my nose into KR, and while it was lovely to see the outpouring of good wishes, the posts in other topics gave me a headache. I may have to stay away a while. People equating Ann Coulter with Al Gore make my heads spin. And honestly, if one more twit asks if she can knit when called for jury duty, my brain may blow up again. I think I need more rest, maybe my vision difficulties are my brain's way of protecting itself.

You're sounding like your old self again, C :)
Ann Coulter and Al Gore??? Not only is that absurd, it's blasphemeous! There is a very nasty word that begins with a c and fits Annie to a "t". That woman simply sickens me.
I hope you called and complained, your nurse should have called if nothing else!
Maybe some crochet will be easier for you now til your vision improves?

Catherine, some Dulaan knitting may be just the thing! I'm glad you're feeling up to spouting off about political figures again.
Oh Lord, and who, may I ask is comparing Anne C to AG? Never, mind, don't tell me. Chelle

Maybe this isn't such a bad thing. A new KR disease? Instead of "goodbye cruel world", it's, "I'm doing a Catherine, and I can't see to read."

Visiting nurse showed up at 6:30, which is not between 3 and 4. She took my blood pressure and commented that it was up a bit. I did not tell her that she was the reason, but she was.
Oh, that nasty word floated through my head while reading the political threads - in the usage of c**tservative. A woman who cannot distinguish between fact and opinion, who gets her "facts" from rightwing radio and blogs and Faux Noise. A fair description of the KR creatures defending Coultergeist and claiming that what she says is no different than anything Al Franken or Bill Maher says. Funny, I don't recall them proposing the poisoning of SC justices or calling the opposition faggots. And of course, Al Gore's global warming information campaign is just propaganda and opinion, because the paid whores of the oil and coal industry say so, and the KR wingnuts believe them. Never mind what the vast majority of climatologists say, if three guys on the take from Exxon disagree, that's good enough for them!
It's also interesting that "new pals" pop up periodically to defend ignorance and hatred, and have nothing to say about knitting. KR must be on the wingnut watch list. ;-)
Nope, those topics can't be good for my brain right now!

Oh, c'mon. The economy's great, Anne is SO smart. And you can knit when called for jury duty, but you have to first fly to the courthouse, and you MUST be knitting a Clapotis using Socks that Rock and the KP Options needles.
I like SallyJo's idea. I think I'm going to be using the Catherine Clause for a while. "I have to leave now, you're making my brain hurt."

Stay AWAY from the wingnuts for now! You need your rest, and even if you were perfectly fit, those people would raise your BP 'cause they're just crazy. I can take very, very little of them myself before I have to walk away. I may not be a genius, but my mama didn't raise no idiot, either.
Unfortunately, we still have a lot of people around here who have those damn bumper stickers on their cars--every time I see one, my opinion of the driver drops 50 points and my BP goes up at least that much.
Glad to hear you can do a few things to keep yourself busy. I guess patience is the key, and yes, I've never been good at that, either.
Glad to hear you're hanging in there!

Being stood up by anyone is annoying. But the visiting nurse is supposed to show up. Just take care and take things slow. If that means staying off the net for awhile, than do what you have to so that you will get better. I hope your eyesight improves.
And tell the nurse that she is the reason why your BP was up.

Good golly Catherine you really should stear clear of politics - why don't you try some Peoples Court or a little Judge Joe Brown for excitement. It's a good way to keep in touch with the cookies without blowing up ;)

Exploring Entrapment
Exploring Entrapment
Entrapment is a tactic used by law enforcement agencies whereby a person is encouraged to commit a crime so that he can be prosecuted for it. It is a controversial strategy, because the state seems to be creating the very crime that it then condemns. Courts therefore tend to control entrapment: in the United States entrapment is a defence, while in England and Wales a successful claim of entrapment will lead to a prosecution being stayed for 'abuse of process'. This chapter explores the theory of entrapment, taking as a starting point Andrew Ashworth's writings on the topic. It largely agrees with Ashworth, both in his reaction to real and hypothetical cases and in his theorization of entrapment. But it also examines some of the finer details of his account, and asks whether it can be defended against the criticisms raised by some commentators.
Keywords: criminal law, entrapment, Andrew Ashworth

text: Computers and marketing have always been a passion for me. For my second Christmas in 1981 my parents said that I kept asking for a computer. It was one of the first words I had learned. By pre-school my teachers had noticed that I had picked up on several advertising jingles. Fast forward a few years and I was part of the first graduating class at Fanshawe College's 3-year Computer Programmer Analyst program. Soon after graduating I started working for a company called Direct Video. At the time they had carved out an niche online by selling DVDs with the low 60 cent U.S. dollar to mostly U.S. customers. I then had the chance to work with some of the top minds in what then was the Canadian Alliance party in a by-election in Perth-Middlesex. I picked up valuable management, marketing, and operations tips from seeing firsthand how future Conservative Party national campaign managers Doug Finley and Jenni Byrne run an election campaign. In September of 2003 I started working for Forest City Surplus as the Webmaster of their bricks and clicks website. I quickly learned that although code was important for a website, getting sales through SEO, digital marketing, and website sales copy was even more important to the bottom line. After about a year the realization had hit me. Despite the fact that Forest City Surplus was a one shop operation in certain areas like camping gear it was thanks to SEO it was competing with giant chain stores like Canadian Tire, MEC, and Walmart. This business insight made me an instant convert to search engine optimization. I also noticed from customers at this time that the words on the screen had meaning; this product sales copy could make or break a sale. It was essentially an automated salesman that sold products days, evenings, weekends, rain or shine. I then listened to hundreds of hours of copyrighting lessons by Dan Kennedy and started buying his books. I then started applying this to the Forest City Surplus website. To my surprise I started noticing a big change in the store. Instead of customers lining up for staff to ask for advice customers started printing off the web pages and bringing them to the store. Questions went from which widget would best suit my needs to where can I find this product I found on your website. The website had through better sales copy advanced the sales cycle in the customers mind.

Daily visitors
This female downy woodpecker is one of the daily visitors. There seem to be two pairs of downies that come. This one is hiding a seed in a crevice in the bark of the Siberian elm tree that holds the feeder.
Others come only while their young still are following around begging to be fed, blue jays and grackles in particular.
One of the reasons I keep the feeders up, though there is usually lots of natural food available for all the birds in summer, is that I get such amusement from the antics of the babies. It strikes me as very funny watching the huge baby blue jays - bigger and fatter than their beleaguered parents, following around, wings fluttering, bleating pitifully. Grackles seem to be even longer in their maturation...it was well into August when I watched one optimistic baby follow its parent who hopped up to a larger feeder, brought down a seed, gave it to the baby and then moved off. The baby cried out, dropping the seed and flew after its parent.
Goodness I thought - that's patience. Even though grackles in a horde, don't endear themselves to me... this little one-act play really caught my fancy and made me laugh. There are so many little things like that every day to watch and enjoy in nature... even watching this industrious woodpecker was fun. She took several seeds and stuck them in cracks in the bark. Now I wonder if she'll remember where they are in a blizzard?

We can leave no feeders out in warm weather because they attract bears. We wish we could, feeders can bring birds closer and make them more visible.ReplyDeleteReplies
Bears seem to stay deep in the woods away from the more populated areas where I live here, but I know cottagers not too far away in Muskoka who have that problem year round. If not bears then fishers.Delete

Madea Saws Couch In Half
Madea's Big Happy Family
April 22, 2011 Madea's back in theaters showing "Madea's Big Happy Family". This new movie is sure to be a box office hit. Stay tuned I have a feeling there is much more to come.
The Extrordinary Talented Tyler Perry
Tyler Perry followed the path from growing up in poverty, then moving up to a famous Hollywood award winning movie producer, author, actor and humanitarian! Tyler Perry's efforts and actions to help the tragic stricken people of Hurricane Katrina, Haiti and others less fortunate is fantastic! Tyler's accomplishments and compassion are that of a saint. He is loved and adored by millions of fans around the globe.
Madea Movies Are Classic
Madea's character is based on Tyler Perry's personal memories and abusive upbringing. He has the amazing talent to send messages regarding complex social issues through humor. Madea is a big strong outspoken older black woman and, when she speaks everybody listens! Of course, we all know that Madea is really Tyler Perry in the Madea wardrobe, a hilarious sight.
In a scene from "Diary Of A Mad Black Woman" a greedy hateful husband is arguing about furniture and money, he wants it all for himself. Madea says half of everything belongs to her niece. The hateful husband refuses to cooperate so, Madea pulls out a chainsaw and, proceeds to rip apart a room full of expensive furniture! She cuts the couch in half the piano everything in the room! At this time I just started busting laughing out loud! This unique Madea knowledge is shared in all the movies with her character. Madea rules her roost for sure no doubt about that!
Watching funny comedy movies smiling through the movie is good. Watching funny comedy movies that make people bust out loud laughing is excellent, and not at all easy to do. Why is it this harsh Madea character is so amusing? She says and does things that we think about saying or doing but can't because it's unacceptable behavior. In reality jail isn't funny. To watch this character act out in such a extreme manner to get her point across, is comedy at it's best!

Myth 8: "Women Are a Different Species"
Women are a lot more like you than the two thousand year old elf you pretend to be every week for fun. If you can figure that out, you can figure us out.
If we tell you we're really busy at work right now and we'll get together when our lives aren't so hectic, we're not interested.
If we kiss you back, we do so not only because we like kissing but because we like you.
Clear enough?
Okay, so some things we do and say aren't as straightforward--and I'll talk about those things when I get to the "woman-to-geek pocket dictionary" in a few weeks.
Next up, Myth Nine: "The fantasy of a relationship is better than an actual relationship"
4 comments:
Actually, I said I would get together with someone when work wasn't so hectic, and just meant that work was hectic and we would get together when the schedule eased up. We've been together 6 years.ReplyDelete
Sometimes there are exceptions...
Yeah, on the one hand I can understand there are times and situations where you may not want to give a direct refusal, on the other hand I call bullshit on that kind of indirect approach. I'm not a mind-reader, I'm not going to play guessing games to figure out what you "really" mean; if you say you're busy and we'll get together later when you're not, I'm going to take you at your word. Look at it from the other side: if you *are* really busy but *do* want to get together later, wouldn't you be just a little disappointed and annoyed if I assumed you meant you weren't interested and hooked up with someone else? (More so if you asked me to call you back at a later time and I never do, than if you said you'd get back to me, but still.)ReplyDelete
I know what you're saying, Phil. Myself, I'd rather be direct in cases like the above--although there is definitely a place for the indirect--we'll get into my rant later about having to be direct all the time...ReplyDelete
But *you're* behavior should *not* be any different whether the woman means "get lost" or if she really does mean "I'm just busy right now." Either way you aren't going to be calling her until she contacts you. Whatever she "really" means, you get on with your life and when her time frees up, it frees up and if you're still available, cool. And if you've hooked up with someone else while she was busy at work, she shouldn't be annoyed by that--such is life! The woman in this case shouldn't expect you to wait around for her--what a weirdo if she did! I certainly don't expect a man I barely know to wait for me--that's kinda creepy actually... (And it's not like you couldn't date them both at the same time!)
- AnonymousAugust 28, 2009 at 1:27 PM
Yeah, I've been overstating my case on this. Of course there's both context and subtext in any conversation and it's to be expected people will be indirect, and that's fine. It's just that I know I already have a problem with overthinking things, so I find it frustrating and aggravating to be told I'm supposed to know what a woman "really" means instead of just taking her at her word. (Again context is key here, there are plenty of situations where I do pick up on cues and it's not a problem—maybe a disappointment, but I'm not breaking out in tantrums.)ReplyDelete
The rest of your points are well-taken.

On Wednesday night, a 19-year-old man was severely injured in an accident on Route 102 when the Hyundai sedan he was driving clipped the rear of an SUV, causing it to flip over. The man, whose name was not released by authorities, suffered injuries to his spinal cord and head in the accident.
According to police statements, the collision occurred just after 5 p.m. The 19-year-old's Elantra impacted the right rear corner of a Ford Expedition traveling in front of it. The Elantra rolled over at least once, and it appeared from photographs at the scene to have come to rest upright.
However, the roof of the vehicle was crushed in the process, so emergency crews were forced to employ the Jaws of Life in order to free the teenager from the wreck. The Eagle-Tribune reported that it took 13 minutes for responders to cut away the roof and door.
The 19-year-old was then transported by ambulance to Parkland Medical Center in Derry, New Hampshire, for treatment, but his injuries were so severe that shortly afterward he was taken by DHART helicopter to a hospital in Boston. He was the only occupant of the Hyundai.
The Ford received little damage in the crash, but a 3-year-old who was a passenger was also taken to the hospital to be monitored by medical staff. His parents, who were also in the SUV, were not hurt.
No updates on the teenager's condition have been released since the collision.
If you have been injured in a car accident in the Granite State, a New Hampshire car accident lawyer can help argue your case in court and receive any damages you may be entitled to.

Blood donors with persistently indeterminate HIV Western blot results were not infected with HIV
ACP J Club. 1991 July-Aug;115:22. doi:10.7326/ACPJC-1991-115-1-022
Source Citation
Dock NL, Kleinman SH, Rayfield MA, et al. Human immunodeficiency virus infection and indeterminate Western blot patterns. Prospective studies in a low prevalence population. Arch Intern Med. 1991 Mar;151:525-30.
To determine whether blood donors with persistent indeterminate Western blot (WB) patterns are infected with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).
3 cohorts of blood donors with different baseline HIV test results were followed for development of HIV infection.
3 urban U.S. Red Cross Blood Services regions from 1985 to 1988.
3 groups of donors (n = 387) were studied: 163 with confirmed positive HIV serologic results; 115 with indeterminate results; and 109 age-, sex-, and race-matched donors with negative results. Follow-up information was insufficient for 35 donors. Mean follow-up time was 12 months.
Description of test and diagnostic standard
Antibody tests consisted of enzyme immunoassays (EIA) supplemented by WB. A blot with bands of sufficient intensity to detect the major viral proteins (gag,pol, and env) was interpreted as positive; a blot with any bands, but not meeting the positivity criteria, was interpreted as indeterminate. Frozen peripheral blood mononuclear cells collected at all donor visits were assayed for proviral DNA by DNA amplification using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR).
At visits every 6 months, a general health examination and selected hematologic and immunologic assays were done; questionnaires on risk behavior for HIV infection were completed.
Main outcome measures
Laboratory and clinical indicators of HIV infection.
Main results
All seropositive donors' WB patterns remained stable during the study. 61 of 98 indeterminate donors had stable reactivity; 22 donors changed from initially negative to indeterminate, and 15 individuals changed from indeterminate to negative WB patterns. 1 participant in the indeterminate group, who had homosexual contact, progressed to positive reactivity to HIV-1. None of the donors with indeterminate or negative WB patterns showed abnormalities on physical examination or in laboratory measurements. Primary, secondary, or minimal risk factors were reported by 5, 1, and 8 donors, respectively, in the indeterminate group; and by 1, 1, and 4 donors, respectively, in the seronegative group (P > 0.2). 5 of 5 seropositive individuals' peripheral blood mononuclear cells were positive by PCR; all 98 indeterminate donors and 5 of 5 seronegative individuals tested by PCR were negative for gag and env sequences.
No evidence was found that blood donors with persistently indeterminate HIV Western blot patterns progress to HIV positivity.

This paper addresses the important topic of the fate of persons with indeterminate results to HIV antibody analysis. Unfortunately, because the report provides insufficient information about the sample being studied, direct clinical application of the data may be limited. The subjects were taken from a sample of healthy blood donors described as "low prevalence," but the selection criteria were not clearly explained. 17% of the indeterminate group was lost to follow-up but no comparison with those followed up was made.
Risk behaviors for HIV infection were similar in the indeterminate and negative groups, but even if a difference was seen between the groups it may not have been detected because of the small sample size. A history of risk behaviors alone does not indicate that a patient with an indeterminate test is infected, but this information is important for counseling the patient. Although the clinical status of the donors was described, information about factors that might be important in the clinical applicability of these findings, such as sex and a history of autoimmune disease, were omitted. WB testing was well described.
This study concludes that a persistent indeterminate HIV result "is very unlikely to signify the presence of infection with HIV." If the characteristics of the sample group had been described in more detail, clinicians would be able to generalize the results to their patients more readily. Patients with indeterminate results require repeat testing; a person who remains indeterminate for 6 months without risk factors or symptoms is almost certainly not infected. Certain patterns have been identified (absence of p24 and env) that indicate freedom from HIV infection. Additional studies such as this will strengthen the confidence with which we tell our patients that a persistently indeterminate WB test result does not represent infection.
Neil Wenger, MD
University of CaliforniaLos Angeles, California, USA
The new test such a viral loading, the new generation of rapid enzyme assays, and screening with p24Ag plus the new subtypes of HIV infection may change our ability to identify patients who have early sero conversion. This may alter the clinical implication of the above study and how we counsel patients with indeterminant WB test results.

A sleek and coupe-like take on Volkswagen's big new Passat sedan could debut at March's Geneva Motor Show, according to reports out of Europe this week.
The new concept is expected to preview the next Passat-based CC, but, with a production debut still sometime away, it is likely that Volkswagen's Geneva show-car will be more of a design study than a realistic preview.
For now, it is unknown if the new CC's look will move even further from the regular Passat, or if Volkswagen will again maintain a styling bond between the two variants.
The renderings in this article, produced by independent artist Theophilus Chin, point to a look that would see the CC draw again on the Passat's styling, while introducing a sharper look through the profile and rear.
This latest report follows whispers in late 2014 that Volkswagen has confirmed a 2017 debut for the new CC, although the carmaker has yet to offer any official word on the matter.
In the meantime, production of the current six year-old CC is expected to continue until the new model's debut, suggesting a third makeover could be on the cards.
A new Alltrack is also expected to debut in the coming year, again transforming the Passat wagon into a jacked-up and lightly ruggedised SUV.
Expect the new CC to utilise the same MQB platform that underpins the recently unveiled 2015 Passat, with power to be provided by a range of petrol, diesel and possibly hybrid drivetrains.

Well I'm no David Hobby, but a couple of weekends ago I conducted a small-strobe off-camera lighting seminar for a professional organization I belong to, Channel Islands Professional Photographers Association (CIPPA). I had originally planned to conduct it in a city park, so that I could demonstrate the use of ambient sunlight and balancing flash. But it rained that weekend, so at the last minute we moved it to the Mystique Studio. Thanks Leanne and Brenda for letting us use your space! I don't remember the exact number, but we had roughly 10–12 attendees.
We also had two models help us out for the seminar. Cassie and Laura were very gracious and professional, even though there was a fair amount of sitting around while I talked. Much thanks to them as well!
All of the shooting was done with one or two lights. I started out with a single hard light (below). Hard light like this gives a very 40's movie-star portrait look.
[click "continue reading" below for more…]
I believe this next shot of Cassie (below) used a small silver umbrella. The light is a little softer, but it's still pretty hard. Right here I was demonstrating that if you get your light in close, the difference between subject and background is much greater. The background here was a light tan, and the room was small. But dialed down and in close, the subject is properly exposed while the light-colored background falls dark.
I switched to a 53″ shoot through umbrella to shoot Laura. The light is much softer and the shadows fill in a bit more, even with just a single light. The shoot-through does tend to throw light around the room more, which can also account for some of the shadow fill.
I had originally planned to shoot 'tethered', so that the images would appear on a laptop (my wife's laptop that I had borrowed). However for some reason I couldn't get it working during the seminar, and decided to forge ahead. So I ended up showing everyone images on the camera display. Not the best way to demonstrate lighting techniques! If this were a bigger production, I'd shoot tethered and put up a projector so that people could see what I was doing. And then of course I'd have to charge money for it. 🙂 Here I am, showing Cassie the results on the back of the camera (below). Note that giant softbox in the studio. It wasn't used, but the little umbrella in the foreground was.
A shot of Laura posing while studio co-owner Leanne shoots. Whoever shot this (there was much sharing of cameras) managed to catch the strobe going off. Cool, huh? Note the main light is the umbrella to camera right (Leanne's camera). The actual image was shot on a wide lens, so the umbrella is closer than it appears. That's an SB-28 doing the hard work in the umbrella. The big glare behind the model is a Sunpak 333 with a cardboard snoot, for a hair light.
At one point the discussion turned to lighting large groups. I mentioned that I'd much rather light a large group indoors than outside, and someone didn't believe me. I decided to set up the shot and show how to do it.
Here's the problem: outdoors, in the sun, you've got a couple of choices. Point the group toward the sun, and watch them all squint and squirm and get dark shadows everywhere. Or you can put their backs to the sun and use the sun as a hairlight. But then you have to light their faces with strobe. And a big group requires distance from the camera, which means your light needs lots of power to cover the distance and still get even coverage and remain out of frame. All the while you're managing your aperture against your maximum shutter sync speed with the sun. End result: lots of firepower needed.
But indoors, you can bump your ISO up to compensate for strobe deficiencies. Outdoors you can't, because the sunlight is an ever present hassle. Indoor situations also often include free diffuser panels (i.e. walls and ceilings) that you can bounce your strobe off, which is better than any softbox or umbrella for a large group. Below I shot three of our attendees, Lisa, Bonnie and studio co-owner Brenda. I bounced the SB-28 off the light tan backdrop we'd been using with the models. I think my ISO was 800 on this. The result: nice, soft even lighting.
Photographers don't seem to like having their pictures taken, for some reason. 🙂

Once again
You are the rock upon which we stand,
many have fallen, lost and broken.
Wondrous life full of His beauty,
infested pitfalls laced with secret traps.
Coming together to accomplish the true cause,
encountering true love, seamlessly changes.
Standing by your side, not letting go,
Your inspiration reigns throughout my vocals.
Desire to grow grounded by a desire to know,
You answer the calls of my heart.
Surrounding my life yet once again,
the only place where I know to begin.
Sensing jealous passion for generations,
Fathers heart searches the depth of us.

Little Bundle
To say these guys are smitten would be an understatement. Who wouldn't be really though. I mean come on. He's adorable. All bundled up and snuggly like a little pod. I love bundled babies. I also like taking images of bundled babies. Add in a gorgeous wicker cot and I may take far too many images of a gorgeous bundle in said cot but hey, can you really have too many images of this little guy. I say, no, no you can't.

Let me tell you a missionary story about prayer that came to me recently in a letter from Cherill and Jack Warnock. They're friends who were serving a mission in Fort Apache, Arizona. Cherill said a new elder had recently been assigned to their district.
"He was a farm boy from Idaho, and we don't think he was very anxious to come out. He's the first in his family to do so. The last three weeks have been difficult ones for him, wracked with homesickness and a certain degree of humiliation at being a greenie. Those things are surprisingly hard on a young fellow who was a big-time senior, who raced his car up and down the main street of some podunk town just a few months ago. He has suddenly discovered that he is not nearly as independent, important, or significant a person as he had himself figured to be just a very few short weeks ago.
"He told us that he was totally disgusted and thinking of throwing in the towel. Here he was walking the streets of a strange town where a lot of the people have absolutely no interest in him and what he has to say. He was even wondering if the Lord had any interest in him. He was sort of argumentative in his prayers. 'Just show me one person that this benefiting,' he told the Lord, 'and I'll consider sticking around.'
"The Lord definitely heard him. The next couple of days he received a letter from his father up on the farm. The family had been in debt all of the boy's life; he knew that. They always made a living; but what with up and down crop years, they just couldn't seem to get money ahead. The father always had to borrow money to operate, and the debt seemed to hang permanently over their heads.
'You wouldn't believe what has happened since you left,' the father wrote. 'We've never gotten over sixty dollars a crate for our onions; this year they shot up over a hundred. Remember those new potatoes we planted to see what they would do: Well, they produced three times what the oldest ones did, and we get a much better price for them. Even the grain has made money this year. That's the first time it's done that in years! We're out of debt, son, we're out of debt,' his father continued, 'and we're putting money in the bank already with more to come. I can't believe it. I just can't believe it.'"
My friends said, "(The Missionary) wept as he told us...And I'm afraid we were a little dewy-eyed ourselves. The smart-alecky kid who raced his car up and down the street was starting to turn into a man in front of our eyes. "I guess I know now who it's benefiting.' He said."
Excerpt from Chieko N. Okazaki's book: Sanctuary, 1997, p. 36-37

Young people are documented to owning the highest incident rates and it truly is for this reason that it's understandable that the price of young driver insurance policy for children us extremely superior and the prices can go for any place concerning 50 to a hundred p.c. This turns exactly what is found as being a rite of passage for teenagers into a dilemma for parents who've to pay for exorbitant quantities to guard their little ones. Also to help parents, the Insurance Information Institute and Insurance Institute for Highway Protection have appear up with some handy hints to assist mothers and fathers protect their teenagers, specifically, dad and mom can buy them a secure car or truck.
An additional idea the two institutes arrived up with were being to suggest that folks acquire their kids cars and trucks that stimulate reasonable, not reckless, driving. This is due to teens are more than very likely to get shorter on the two the expertise likewise as maturity driving the wheel. For this reason, they may be quickly convinced to take part in harmful and irresponsible actions for instance speeding. Also, dad and mom should really endeavor to get their little ones autos that have a small center of gravity. In other words, the vehicle that oldsters opt for for his or her small children ought to be secure as this decreases the possibility in the car rolling about. Among the cars and trucks which have been deemed unstable are SUV and get trucks since they have got a increased centre of gravity. It is also an important factor to notice that diverse vehicles provide differing levels of safety during the even of the crash and also a well-informed insurance policy agent who sells guidelines for young adults could well be capable to place you in the route of a car or truck which offers great crash defense. Crash take a look at rankings for different vehicles are also readily available online.
Over a related be aware, it had been also a good idea that oldsters refrain from obtaining their kids small cars and trucks, because they have been considerably less likely to provide enough protection through a collision. Instead, mid or full-sized automobiles were being a much more preferable option. Alongside that, it had been recommended that oldsters should examine out the crash take a look at rankings on the web for autos they had been enthusiastic about buying for his or her kids and evaluate the effects to ensure that they can be guaranteed which they are buying a safer car or truck. More mature motor vehicles are not the cars and trucks of option to acquire for your teen. This is due to though they could be in great situation, they merely lack security features. The truth is, a mid-sized automobile nowadays is more likely to provide a far more secure and safe driving encounter because they have security capabilities like airbags, when compared with a sizable vehicle produced even 6 to ten years ago that happen to be more unlikely to element airbags.
However, it remains that driving can be a privilege and one which teenagers should really respect and identify that it arrives with tasks. As a result, mom and dad shouldn't refrain from laying down some floor principles for when their teen is powering the wheel, no matter of what vehicle these are driving. Mother and father must also stimulate their children to maintain a clear driving history in addition as carrying their security belt. Superior grades in class and involving them selves in neighborhood programs and usually staying safe and sound, coupled with great driving decorum, are probable to earn young people bargains of their insurance plan insurance policies. Based on the American Academy of Pediatrics, more than 5000 youths in between the ages of 16-20 die in motor vehicle incidents annually. This naturally factors to the higher claims chance in addition to a bigger potential for dying and both of those of this sum as much as equal the next value on automobile insurance coverage for teenagers.

DeWitt Wallace
DeWitt Wallace
DeWitt Wallace (1889-1981), American publisher, was the founder of Reader's Digest, one of the world's largest-selling magazines.
DeWitt Wallace was born on November 12, 1889, in St. Paul, Minnesota, where his father was on the faculty (and later president) of Macalester College. DeWitt attended Macalester from 1907 to 1909 but, finding life there too confining, transferred to the University of California at Berkeley. He returned to St. Paul in 1912 and was hired by a publishing firm specializing in farming literature. Much of the company's information was provided without cost by federal and state agencies. Wallace compiled a list of the available public documents, added his own comments, and published the result in 1916 in a pamphlet entitled Getting the Most Out of Farming. Acting as his own salesman, Wallace sold nearly 100,000 copies, primarily to rural bankers who offered it to their customers as a promotional device.
When America entered World War I Wallace enlisted in the Army, was sent to France, and in 1918 was seriously wounded in action near Verdun. Wallace passed the hours in a French military hospital editing superfluous words from magazine articles, preparing himself for his next publishing venture—Reader's Digest.
For six months in 1919 Wallace was a constant visitor to the periodical room of the Minneapolis Public Library. He pored through a host of magazines, seeking out those articles that still retained general interest even ten years after publication. The chosen few were then carefully condensed. By January 1920 he had prepared a sample issue of the Reader's Digest," 31 Articles Each Month From Leading Magazines, Each Article of Enduring Value and Interest, In Condensed and Permanent Form." The sample contained all of the essential elements that would make the Reader's Digest a world-wide success. Unlike most magazines of the day, the Digest contained no fiction, for it was envisioned as a service for busy readers who wanted hard facts conveyed quickly, clearly, and concisely. Wallace edited the Digest to speak directly to the concerns of the average reader, skillfully blending stories of human interest, down-to-earth advice, and good-natured humor. The Digest frankly acknowledged the world's problems but remained ever-confident of their eventual solution.
Wallace's initial plans for the Reader's Digest were, in retrospect, quite modest. He offered to give his idea to any publisher who would make him editor of the new magazine. But even on those generous terms no one was interested. So, as a last resort, he decided to publish the Digest himself. A small office was rented in New York City's Greenwich Village and hundreds of circulars were sent out to potential subscribers. His sole partner then, and in the years to come, was Lila Bell Acheson, the sister of a Macalester classmate. The couple were married in October 1921. When they returned from their honeymoon some 1,500 orders awaited them.
The first official edition of Reader's Digest appeared in February 1922. Most magazine publishers readily granted re-publication rights, for they considered a credit in the Digest a form of free advertising for their periodicals. In its early years the Digest itself carried no advertising and was sold solely by subscription. On that basis the magazine grew slowly, but steadily. In 1922 Wallace was able to move the company to its permanent headquarters in Pleas-antville, New York. Three years later the Digest had a circulation of 20,000 copies. The real growth of the Reader's Digest did not come until it was sold on the nation's newsstands, but Wallace did not take that step until 1929. He feared that other magazines, sensing new competition, would no longer grant reprint rights. Most of the major periodicals, however, continued with the Digest (some for a fee), and by the end of 1929 circulation had climbed over 100,000.
Wallace constantly adjusted his editorial product to meet the needs of his rapidly growing readership. For example, in February 1933 the Digest began presenting signed, original articles. In time the magazine would produce over half of its own material. As the Digest grew in size and influence it inevitably attracted its share of critics. Some scorned the Digest's brand of condensed English; others objected to its alleged conservative political bias.
Yet the Reader's Digest did have its crusading moments. It was one of the first major periodicals (in 1954) to link cigarette smoking and cancer, and it frequently attacked unfair business practices. The Digest's most famous article, "…And Sudden Death," published in August 1935, graphically portrayed the hazards of reckless driving. It became the most widely reprinted article in magazine history, with four million copies in circulation.
By the end of the 1930s Reader's Digest was moving into the international market. A British edition was produced in 1938, to be followed by editions in Spanish (1940), Portuguese (1942), Swedish (1943), and, eventually, most of the world's major languages. The foreign editions carried advertising from their inception. The American edition followed suit in 1955, but only after Wallace, in typical fashion, had first surveyed the likely reaction of his readers. Wallace, meanwhile, was reaching out into other areas of publishing, usually successfully. The Reader's Digest Book Club, for example, offered its members quarterly volumes of condensed books, primarily current novels. When the club started in 1950 it had 183,000 subscribers; in four years there were two and a half million.
Wallace gradually began to withdraw from the active management of the company in the mid-1960s, although he remained as chairman of the board until 1973. He died on March 30, 1981. At the time of his death over 30 million copies of Reader's Digest were being sold every month to readers in 163 countries.
Further Reading
The biography of DeWitt Wallace, a man who long shunned publicity, is inseparable from the story of his great creation, Reader's Digest. James Playsted Wood, Of Lasting Interest: The Story of the Reader's Digest (1967) was written with the cooperation of the magazine's management. Samuel A. Schreiner, Jr., The Condensed World of the Reader's Digest (1977) is a sometimes critical insider's view of Wallace and life at the Digest.

Therefore, it's best to use Encyclopedia.com citations as a starting point before checking the style against your school or publication's requirements and the most-recent information available at these sites:
Modern Language Association
The Chicago Manual of Style
American Psychological Association
- Most online reference entries and articles do not have page numbers. Therefore, that information is unavailable for most Encyclopedia.com content. However, the date of retrieval is often important. Refer to each style's convention regarding the best way to format page numbers and retrieval dates.
- In addition to the MLA, Chicago, and APA styles, your school, university, publication, or institution may have its own requirements for citations. Therefore, be sure to refer to those guidelines when editing your bibliography or works cited list.
