EGU General Assembly 2016, held 17April – 22April, 2016 in Vienna, Austria
Session : The magnetic Earth: significant features and open questions
The magnetic field of the Earth is dynamic and is an important property of the planet. The study of its more significant spatial and temporal features are fundamental to understanding the past and the present state of the planet, and, importantly, its evolution into the future. There are several open questions that deserve more attention, for example, the present rapid decay of the field that could be a precursor to an excursion or a reversal, the geodynamo properties that are still hidden in the outer core, the existence in the present field of a large magnetic depression, the South Atlantic Anomaly, etcetera. This session is open to presentations concerning these questions and others related to the dynamics of the planet, the change of the Earth's magnetic field through its history and at the present time, together with possible consequences for life.
Major geophysical events and transitions of heliospheric magnetic field in the beginning, middle and end phase of the Maunder solar minima
Michele,Casati; Valentino,Straser; Alessandro Feron
In recent decades we are moving towards the hypothesis that electromagnetic (EM) processes inside the solar system (not yet fully understood from a physical point of view), may be linked with the energy released during major geophysical events (energy expressed in magnitude or Volcanic Explosivity Index). This research has focused on analysis of the temporal relationship between EM processes inside the solar system and major geophysical events around the crucial phase of the Maunder solar minima (1645-1715).
To carry out this study thirty-five limit values of the heliospheric magnetic field strength HMF (minimum and/or maximum) were compared, in terms of time, with twenty-one major geophysical events which occurred between 1600 and 1729. In the solar-terrestrial interaction, the concomitant conditions necessary for the amplification of the energy of the geophysical event, are two:
i. low solar activity during a long period (from decades to centuries), for example, the historical solar minima: Wolf, Sporer, Maunder, Dalton, etc. and
ii. fast and impulsive EM solar dynamo reorganizations in the short-term (one year or two years), are characteristic in the two periods of the solar cycle border, the incoming or outgoing of the solar minima or solar maximum.
The reconstructed intensity of the heliospheric magnetic field (HMF) was the main set of data used to carry out the present study. HMF evaluated by the annual cosmogenic 10Be ice core data from Dye 3 and North GRIP, in Greenland [McCracken;Beer,Sol.Phys.,2015 in press]. Analysis of the data shows that all the major geophysical events, with magnitude and volcanic explosivity index: 8.7 < M < 9.5 and VEI5 +, occurred in proximity of twenty-two limit values ( maximum or minimum ) of the reconstructed field strength HMF.
The possible proof of the link (time occurrence) of major geophysical events with unknown dynamics EM, in the deep solar minimum, is confirmed by taking into account the comparison of the dates of major geophysical events with:
i. the biannual variations of the content of carbon C14, in the tree rings of pine trees in the southern Urals,1600-1730 [Kocharov,1995] and
ii. the recent hypothesis of the solar minima that occurred in Maunder [Zolotova,2015].
It is our opinion, that analysis of the preparatory phase leading to a major geophysical event (MGE), should not be limited to examining the EM signals (magnetic coupling between the Sun and the Earth) using up-to-date modern equipment (satellites and/or magnetic stations placed on the ground), but we should also study the MGEs occurred hundreds of years ago, through the examination of the reconstructed solar magnetic activity and terrestrial data.
Initially we have processed the annual value of the reconstructed intensity of the heliospheric magnetic field B(PCR-1) to obtain the binomially weighted running averages (where the value for the Nth year is given by : X(N) = [ X(N-2) + 4* X(N-1) + 6* X(N) + 4* X(N+1) + X(N+2)]/16). Then we compared the two series (continuous and dashed lines, chart A & B) with :
i. thirteen large volcanic eruptions (VEI5+), Smithsonian Institute catalog (Global Volcanism Program),
ii. four large volcanic stratospheric eruptions [Gao,2008][Traufetter et.al,2004],
iii. four large historical earthquakes with magnitude: 8.7<M<9.5, USGS catalog [Yuzo Ishikawa,2012][Satake et al.,1996][Utsu, T.,2004].
We observe :
i. in proximity to twenty-two (yellow sectors, chart A) of the thirty-five limit values (upper and lower, black and blue symbols "x", chart A), of 130 annual values B(PCR-1) all MGE occurred,
ii. in proximity to thirteen of the thirty-five limit values B(PCR-1), an MGE did not occur (black symbol "x", chart A),
iii. only two MGEs (Parker,04/01/1641; Komaga-take, 31/07/1640) occurred with a delay of over two years.
Chart "A" 1600-1729 - The thirty-five heliospheric transitions with MGEs (eighteen yellow bars or twenty-two limits of HMF) and without MGEs (thirteen limits of HMF).
The time occurrence of twenty-one MGEs compared with twenty-two limits values of the B(PCR-1) is (see table):
i. Δt = < 1 year (advance or delay) for fifteen of the twenty-one B(PCR-1),
ii. Δt = 1-2 years (advance or delay) for four of the twenty-one B(PCR-1),
iii. Δt = 2-3 years for one of the twenty-one B(PCR-1) in 1638, compared to large eruptions: Parker & Komogatake.
Table - From left to right, the thirty-five transitions HMF date (upper and lower limits): "thmf" and relative HMF intensity in nanoTesla, MGE date: "tge", MGE category (VEI or magnitude) and time lag (number of years late or early) (tge-thmf). (*) = Major stratospheric volcanic eruptions (sulfate aerosol injection) [Gao,2008][Traufetter et.al,2004] (**) = Historical earthquakes [Yuzo Ishikawa, 2012][Satake et al., 1996][Utsu, T., 2004]
In addition the 1632_B(PCR-1) limit is concomitant with the volcanic eruption of Mount Vesuvius and it is about one year before the volcanic eruption of Furnas. The 1719_B(PCR-1) limit is a year and a half before the eruption of Katla and it is a year after the volcanic eruption Eu_3.
The trend of the reconstructed volcanic aerosols [Gao;Chaochao;Alan Robock; Caspar Ammann,2008][Traufetter et.al,2004], (chart B), shows:
i. four volcanic eruptions VEI5 + (Huaynaputina 1600, Parker & Komaga-take 1640 and Gamkonora 1673),
ii. three unknown large volcanic eruptions (Eu_n),
iii. four of six peaks (1619-1621; 1639-1641; 1673-1675 and from 1690 to 1965) are synchronized with low, and weak EM activity periods (dips of the blue line,chart B).
Chart "B" The four stratospheric volcanic eruptions (Huaynaputina 1600, Komaga-take 1640, Parker-1641 and Gamkonora 1673), the three unknown stratospheric volcanic eruptions (Eu_1(1619);Eu_2(1693) and Eu_3(1719)) and reconstructed HMF dips.
Distant from Mm (Maunder minimum): Between 1603 and 1618 (blue sector, chart A), we have five limits of B(PCR-1) and no MGE. The EM activity is radically different compared to the core of the Mm. We note the absence of destabilization or irregularities in the series B(PCR-1) (short term) and the reconstructed values of HMF is consistently high, approximately between 6-7 nTesla. The Core of the Mm: In the middle period of solar minimum (approximately 1668-1700), six MGEs are synchronized, with seven limits of B(PCR-1) (Δt = <1 year). The Mm exit: Between 1700
and 1730 (red sector, chart A), fourteen limits of B(PCR-1) are connected to multiple EM oscillations. Six of the fourteen limits are not synchronized with MGEs. This period is the restoring of EM solar activity and it is the return to the 11-year solar cycle, with an higher EM.
Appendix - MGEs, the biannual variations of the content of carbon C14 and the solar minima suggested by Zolotova
The comparison between twenty-one MGEs with twenty-six biannual limits of variations of C14 (on sixty-six values of the constituent series), we find that :
i. in proximity to nineteen of the twenty-six limits twenty-one MGEs occurred ("x" blue symbols, chart C),
ii. in proximity to seven of the twenty-six values are MGEs did not occur ("x" blacks symbols, chart C).
The comparison of MGEs with solar minima suggested by Zolotova in his document "The minimum maunder is not as grand as it Seemed to be" (chart 9, page 10), we find that six MGEs coincide with six of the ten solar minimum (1619, 1630, 1640, 1650, 1680 and 1700).
Chart "C" The twenty-six limits of the C14 content variations in the bi-annual rings of pine-trees from the South Urals, with MGEs (nineteen limits) and without MGEs (seven limits).
Study of MGEs in Mm, corroborates the conclusions presented in our previous studies [Casati;Straser,2013][Casati;2014][Casati;Straser,2015].
The low solar minima are periods when a MGE is more likely. We hypothesize that unusual and unknown electrical phenomena in the solar minima are associated with great energy which is released during MGE.
Our direct appeal, to the scientific community, is therefore to study EM terrestrial processes in connection with EM processes inside the solar system. As shown by the latest documents of solar physics that identify the next thirty years as a period of low EM solar activity.[Ahluwalia,2013 [Goelzer;Smith;Schwadron;McCracken,2013][Livingston;Penn;Svalgaard,2012][Steinhilber ;Beer,2013][Shepherd,2015][Zachilas; Gkana,2015]

Maggie Gyllenhaal wears gorgeous powder blue MiuMiu suit at party celebrating 'The Deuce' premiere
American actress Maggie Gyllenhaal showed up at a party for the premiere episode of her new eight-episode HBO series The Deuce wearing a gorgeous powder blue 3-piece trouser suit last night. The suit was by Italian high fashion clothing label Miu Miu.
Gyllenhaal has also been doing the rounds of the talk shows this week promoting the new series, which premieres on HBO at 9pm EST tonight.
The Deuce was created by The Wire's David Simon and George Pelecanos, and is being called "David Simon's best work since The Wire' by The Atlantic.
Considering The Wire is one of the best series to ever appear on American TV, then this one must be good.
Meanwhile, I'm in love with that gorgeous trouser suit.

Also, why does Expert Fix drop a box with slide bars (e.g. for lighting adjustments) right on top of the photo so that you cannot see the full effects of adjustments as you move any slide bar? I do not see how to move that box off the photo. Even if I could, I still would not have a ready reference without Before & After photos as I get in Quick Fix. I have been unhappy with changes from slide bars only in versions 9 & 10 to the slide bars (which move too rapidly) and 9 little icons in versions 11 through 15.

A good way to lower the price you pay for insurance is to simply drive fewer miles. Some car insurance companies offer lower rates for those who do not drive as much.
Without the proper knowledge, shopping for car insurance has the potential to cause a great deal of stress. Car insurance is a pretty simple product, but it does have a lot of different features, and a little bit of learning can help you understand how to line these features up to get the best coverage at the cheapest price. These hints should help you buy a good policy.
If you're insuring a teenager, check what it would cost to add them to a current policy, and then compare that to what their own policy would cost. It can sometimes be cheaper to purchase a different policy, but this depends on what vehicles are involved.
Keep a clean driving record. Your insurance costs can be a lot higher, if you've been in accidents or have gotten tickets. If your driving record is poor, consider taking a safe driving course to improve your driving and help avoid future accidents and citations. It can reduce your premiums over time.
Most states require that you pay for liability insurance. It is your responsibility as a citizen to know whether or not your state requires auto insurance, and to adhere to the minimum coverage level for your state. You will break the law and face financial consequences if you have no insurance and get into an accident.
If you are thinking of purchasing aftermarket enhancements for your car, check to find out how much will be covered by your insurance if there is theft or damage. Insurance frequently does not provide coverage for these parts, only covering the value that is added to the car's entire value, and that may not be too much.
Avoid having more than one driver listed for each car. Having only one name attached with each car will net you a better price on your insurance.
Try comparing the cost of giving a teen their own insurance plan versus including them in your insurance policy. Many times it may be cheaper to just get a different policy.
Purchase property damage liability when you buy your car insurance. This can cover any damaged caused by your car during an accident. In most of the United States, property damage liability is required by law. When you're in a bad accident, the property damage can be expensive. Therefore, by having a high amount of coverage in this area, you may actually save money.
Many people believe that auto insurance rates go down automatically for young drivers once they reach 25. However, the truth is that rates slowly decrease from the time a driver turns 18 years old, as long as he or she maintains a clean driving record.
Make sure you understand the different types of coverage available and that your insurance provides adequate coverage for your situation. Liability is important both for damage you cause to other people, and damage you cause to yourself or your own property. In addition, you will need to carry insurance in case you get in an accident with an uninsured driver.
Sports Car
Racking up minor driving offenses and traffic tickets can cost you money when it's time to pay your car insurance premiums. The better your record is, the less you are going to have to pay in premiums. When they go away, you can get some other quotes.
Think about driving a car that isn't so sporty. It costs more money to insure a sports car. Choose a smaller car with a less flashy profile. The larger the motor is in the vehicle, the more that it is going to cost you to insure it. In addition, sports car are stolen more often than other cars, driving the insurance rates even higher.
Talk to your agent if you're thinking of switching to another company with better rates. Often, companies will reduce your rate accordingly to keep a competitive edge.
The best advice in getting auto insurance is to keep your driving record spotless. Car accidents are the number one thing to raise your insurance rates. Always drive within your own capacity and stay away from dangerous conditions. If your night vision is not up for driving then, do not do it.
For cheaper insurance rates, try increasing your FICO score. Auto insurers will check your credit before pricing your policy. Statistically, those with poor credit scores often get into accidents more often. If you want to keep insurance low, make sure you have a good credit score.
The cheapest quote may not necessarily be the best policy. It may be that you get what you pay for, though it is possible that you have indeed found a true bargain. It is important to research the company and policy you are considering before sealing the deal.
There are driving courses available that can lower your insurance policy premium. Insurance companies will often give you a discount if you have taken such a class. It will also help you learn how to drive more safely. Many local driving schools offer these courses. There are even online classes that can help you learn defensive driving techniques.
Insurance is the ultimate protection against any type of accident or disaster happening to your car. The insured individual has to pay the agreed to deductible associated with the policy in some cases, but after that the insurance company coverage kicks in.
The best way to save money on your auto insurance is if you are a safe driver. You can be awarded good driver discounts if you don't get into accidents or receive tickets. Your auto insurance policy can be quite costly if you have a bad driving record. You can have lower premiums if you are a safer driver.
Auto Insurance
If an auto insurer offers you the chance to get a warranty on the parts that are used to repair your vehicle, do not jump on board with it without doing research first. Most of the time, the repair shop will already offer a warranty in the form of a guarantee, and parts makers also guarantee their products. Do not spend your money to buy something worth nothing.
Ask your auto insurance agent for a comprehensive list of the money-saving opportunities their company provides. You should thoroughly comb this list for any discounts that are applicable to you. If you want to spend as little as possible on auto insurance, you want to make sure you are getting all the discounts you can.
Decrease the amount of miles you drive each year. If you are unable to reduce your annual mileage, it may be worth it to buy a cheap, second vehicle. It may cost you less to insure two vehicles that have lower mileage than it will be to insure one that is driven high miles each year.
Investigate which discounts are open to you and ensure you capitalize on all of them. You can save a lot of money once you total up all the discounts for which you are eligible.
Many people do not realize that their insurance may not cover other drivers who are uninsured that cause an accident. An uninsured motors policy will increase the cost of your insurance premium. It will also give you protection in the event that a driver without insurance hits your car.
Insurance Costs
Your insurance costs on your automobile can increase if you have points on your drivers license from tickets or accidents. Thankfully, once they are expired and taken off your record, your car insurance costs will decrease. Once this happens, you may want to consider looking at new quotes for your car insurance!
If you ever have to file a claim, your insurance company will be easier to work with if you have the proper documentation. Taking pictures from your cell phone is a good way to record the location and damage of an accident. If you don't have a cell phone with a camera built in, consider leaving a disposable camera in your emergency kit or glove box of your car. This will also assist you if you forget your phone, there are no witnesses, or your phone is damaged in the accident.
Don't forget to figure in the insurance premium you will pay on a new car. Don't forget that insurers have a more favorable view of safer cars. On the other hand, sportier models tend to come with higher premiums. This cost difference should be taken into account when you decide on a car.
It has a "consumer complain ratio" that may be provided by insurers for your state. This number represents the percentage of claims that show which given providers have complaints.
Auto Insurance
You will be able to obtain lower car insurance rates by improving your credit rating. Auto insurance agencies will go through your credit report. Auto insurance companies started pulling credit when it was found that people with bad credit make more claims. You can maintain a lower insurance rate by keeping a good credit score.
Defensive driving courses offer an easy way to enjoy lowered insurance premiums. The majority of auto insurance companies offer discounts on premiums for successfully passing a defensive driving course. The class itself is also beneficial because it teaches you to drive safer. A lot of driving schools have these courses. If physical classes don't work for you, check for online versions.
There are more details involved in choosing an auto insurance policy, than you might have thought there were. To get a great policy requires common sense, knowledge and plenty of research. This translates into ensuring you have the right amount of coverage in the event of a mishap. Just follow the advice above, and you will be better armed to shop for auto insurance.

Orly Pink Chocolate,
2 coats + HK Girl TC
To be honest, this isn't a usual colour I would have picked up on any given day. In fact, I think this was an impulse purchase and I really don't know why I got it. It's been sitting around in The Stash. In fact, it's been in the "Let's Swatch and Purge" pile for the longest time.
But now, I think I know why I picked it up. Yes, it's a boring colour. One my late grandma would definitely approve.
It's also likely to be one of those crèmes that would look darn good as a base colour for nail art. I haven't done any on it yet as I'm typing this post. But I'm definitely going to put the theory to the test soon.

A review of the films I've seen this past week.
This is a very likable movie. I'm kind of surprised it took me this long to see it, actually; I'd been told for so many years as a younger man that I would absolutely love this love letter to cinema. And I did; I loved it. It's a warm, engrossing film that encompasses love, friendship, sentimentality, pragmatism, and youth, and all surrounding the cinema. I love the way the cinema is portrayed in this small Italian postwar town as the center of the community. It's idealized, but I think the director, Giuseppe Tornatore justifies it as a memory, and we all idealize the good ones. I think it's interesting how the main character, Toto, idealizes his youth but at the same time remembers the warnings of the projectionist he looks at as a father to never give in to nostalgia, but rather to follow your path. Beautifully realized, with a gorgeous score by Ennio Morricone. **** (Note: I saw the 155-minute version of the film Miramax released in 1989; it just happened to be the one TCM was showing.)
What an experience this film was. I find it hard to describe; there's not really a plot so much as a premise. Perhaps it's due to the film's style; observational but never intrusive. The premise is that there are angels who watch over Berlin, weaving around humankind but never interfering, observing in a sort of fascination and maybe able to create the possibility of hope. Otherwise, they simply observe, never participating, and it's amazing how well director Wim Wenders and his cinematographer, the great Henri Alekan (who shot one of my all time favorite films, Jean Cocteau's Beauty and the Beast), create true loneliness even among crowds. The angels--Bruno Ganz and Otto Sander--can see everything but are a part of nothing. They are cut off from experience and feeling. Bruno Ganz, as Damiel, begins to fall in love and wants to feel; he is tired of being alone. To me the film suggests that the fact that he knows he's lonely at all is the first step outside of himself. For me, the film re-created exactly the feeling of holding yourself detached from everything, and the intense longing when you begin to with you were a part of something outside of yourself. It's a bit of a flawed film, but not in a way that derails the impression of it; it's like a symphonic tone poem where not every piece works, but the imperfections somehow make it feel more alive. It doesn't grab you by the throat and force you to see what it wants. It simply observes and leaves you to get what you can from it. I liked that. It's very much in the New Wave tradition of filmmaking. I need to also mention Peter Falk's performance as himself; he seems to be arguing that even the most mundane sensations and experiences are important. He's magical in a magical movie. ****
This is the most confident and masterful Scorsese's been in a long time; probably because it's basically the same tone and structure as GoodFellas, except that it's about Wall Street, which is arguably where the bigger criminals are, anyway. Leonardo DiCaprio stars as real life stockbroker Jordan Belfort, who started his own firm and basically seemed to push both hedonism and stock fraud as far as he could. It's a dynamic movie, and Scorsese's energy is easily matched by DiCaprio in possibly his greatest performance. (Also, unlike the last time this happened, I do think Jonah Hill deserves the Oscar nomination here, although I wish he'd shut up about "real acting" as though comedy is just goofing off and doesn't take talent.) It's a funny movie, too, not only in the way it satirizes these assholes and their ridiculous tastes, but just in how loony it's willing to get in its depiction of their bizarre lifestyle without totally breaking the reality of it. One of the best movies of last year. ****
This was like watching a movie version of 50 Shades of Grey but without all the character depth. If you've been reading my posts about that novel, you know what that means. I wanted to like it, but it's so slick, so pretend-dark, so light and fluffy... maybe it's just because I've grown up in a world with all the sexy movies that came after, so I've already seen the evolution and this just looks like an episode of Silk Stalkings to me, with its cheesy music and it's sweaty softcore scenes, pretending to be so transgressive... it just seemed really, really silly and not erotic to me at all. Kim Basinger was at the height of her beauty then, but it's like she has no character. I never knew who she was or how I was supposed to feel about what was happening to her, because I never had a sense of where she was at in her life and what this meant. Mickey Rourke smirks and mumbles his way through the film, like Bruce Willis without the charisma. (Take that as you will.) I know it sounds like I hated this movie, and I didn't really, but I didn't connect with it on any level. I thought the "You Can Leave Your Hat On" striptease was nice, because it was basically a well-shot music video. Maybe I just couldn't see all of the emotional sincerity some reviewers saw through all of the gloss and slickness. **
Passionate drama about a singer (Judy Garland) who is discovered by a fading actor (James Mason) and becomes a movie star. In director George Cukor's hands, this story becomes almost operatic in its grandness. The emotions here run high and intense. Mason, effortlessly good, is a drunk whose star is on the wane and who finds something in Garland--a fresh-faced, sincere singer who becomes very popular very quickly--and tries to cling to it. I liked how their emotions for each other seemed genuine. To me he never came across as desperate to cling to her fame; he was very much in love with her, which makes the whole thing more tragic, as he becomes a hopeless alcoholic and she tries her hardest to stand by him, even when she knows it will damage her career. It's a beautiful-looking film, the first Warner Bros. film in widescreen CinemaScope, and an interesting range of songs. (To be honest, you could have dropped the entire "Born in a Trunk" sequence and I wouldn't have missed it; I much preferred Garland performing "It's a New World," a beautiful sequence where she performs at home for Mason and which she's quite playful in, and especially "The Man That Got Away," held for a single take.) Garland's performance is what really holds the film together; when she breaks down in the makeup chair, it felt so real it gave me chills. There's a satirical edge, too, but the real heart of the movie is in the grand display of two people tragically in love, one of them self-destructive, the other's optimism eroding away. I loved it. **** (Note: the version I saw on TCM was the 176-minute restored version.)
It's been very interesting looking at the interpretations of this dreamlike film online since I viewed it. I'm very glad to have finally sat with it. Many of you have seen it by now, I'm sure, so I don't want to get deep into describing it, and I'm not sure any description of it will be adequate, anyway. I just want to say I think it's a great film. Bold opinion, I know. Very, very glad to have seen it. ****

Film Week
A review of the films I've seen this past week.

I probably saw the 123-minute version of Cinema Paradiso in the movie theater at the time. LOVED it. You saw what the director originally released. And apparently there's an even longer version, 179 minutes, which was royally panned.
- SamuraiFrog said...
I honestly didn't feel like it was missing anything, and I remember reading Roger Ebert's review of the longer version, where he basically says that the shorter version seemed more complete.

Parolee arrested in violent attack on Forestville coffee shop employee.
Sonoma County Sheriff's Deputies arrested a parolee for a random attack on a Forestville coffee shop employee. Deputies responded to the call on Friday, July 6th shortly after 5:00 PM at the Roasters Coffee Shop in the 6600 block of Front St in Forestville regarding an assault. Deputies arrived and detained Sean Seeman, a 26-year-old transient parolee who was being held down by a 53 year-old witness.
Deputies interviewed all involved and determined the 22-year-old barista was working in the coffee shop when she served Seeman two cups of coffee over a period of about 1 ½ hours. He made her nervous as he watched her while he drank his coffee. Seeman was not known to the barista but asked her to watch his belongings as he walked out of the store then quickly rushed back into the store. Seeman backed the victim into a corner and pushed her against the bathroom door while holding a sharp, small piece of thin scrap metal to her neck, attempting to force her inside. The victim fell to the floor when the 53-year-old male witness noticed the struggle.
The witness entered the store and was able to confront Seeman who ordered him to leave. This allowed enough time for the barista to get away from Seeman. When the man refused, Seeman threw the sharp object at him but just missed. The man picked up a milk crate and threw it at Seeman, hitting him in the face. A struggle then ensued and the man was able to wrestle Seeman down to the ground and hold him until the deputies arrived. No parties sought immediate medical attention.
Seeman, who has a past history of assault and narcotics, was determined to be on county parole. He was arrested for felony assault with a deadly weapon, threats, false imprisonment, assault, battery and a parole violation. He is being held in the Sonoma County Jail without bail.

Pages from the Past: On the Poor Souls
Today I identify with the powerlessness of the Poor Souls. They can do nothing to change their situation, but they can do something "in" the situation, which is love God from where they are; love God because he is lovable and beautiful and not because they get any satisfaction for themselves.
I can acknowledge God here, too. But mostly I need to discover God as loving—as loving me. And maybe that is his desire, too, for this "fallow" time.
"Pages from the Past" are randomish excerpts from my old journals. I process things in writing, so there were a lot of volumes, but here and there I found notes that were still pertinent or helpful.

Yesterday the Pope made headlines around the world with his encyclical "Laudato Si'." As an impassioned plea for our "ecological conversion," the 191-page document was perhaps the most highly anticipated papal teaching in recent history.
While the Pope's spiritual view of ecology may be novel to some, he's in sync with countless other Catholics—including many in our own Archdiocese. The following are several ways in which local Catholics have been responsible caretakers of creation.
St. Gabriel's Parish, Toronto
After its completion in 2006, St. Gabriel's became the first church in Canada to receive Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) gold certification. Its Canadian architect, Roberto Chiotti, was trained in the eco-theology of Passionist thinker Father Thomas Berry. While reducing energy costs was one reason for building a 'green' church, the parish's primary motivation was to establish a link between the sacredness of the faith community of and that of the earth.
Canadian Catholic Organization for Development and Peace
From July 1-3, Development and Peace will participate in a conference on the encyclical at the Vatican in collaboration with the Pontifical Council for Justice and Peace and a coalition of Catholic international development organizations. Then in the fall, they will be launching the "Create a Climate of Change" campaign, asking Canadians to take action through lifestyle changes that are environmentally responsible. Development and Peace has also assembled resources on their website to encourage personal reflection on the challenges of climate change.
Creation: 'And God saw that it was good…'
Why should we care for the environment? This is the question that Salt + Light Television, in partnership with the Environmental Science and Studies Department of the University Of St. Thomas in Houston, attempts to answer with the new documentary series Creation. The six-part production offers an age-old perspective of the environment from the point of view of the Catholic Church and God's design.
Our Lady of Mount Carmel Secondary School in Mississauga, DPCDSB
Designed and built by students, OLMC's Green Room has become an integral part of the school's eco-friendly culture. Students have gained hands-on experience with energy conservation, as natural lighting and shade replace indoor lighting and air conditioning. The Green Room reminds students to be stewards of the earth, in accordance with the Ontario Catholic School Graduate Expectation that they be "responsible citizens who respect the environment and use resources wisely."
St. Justin, Martyr Catholic Elementary School in Markham, YCDSB
St. Justin, Martyr was the first school in the board to introduce organic waste bins through the City of Markham's Zero Waste Program. Lt. Gov. Elizabeth Dowdeswell recently presented the school a special certificate for its six year commitment to Markham's waste management program. Another initiative is "Rock the Bike," an off-the-grid light and music show powered entirely by the cycling energy of students. Commonwealth and Pan Am Games cyclist Ed Veal took part in a demonstration of the program during the Lt. Gov.'s visit.
St. John Paul II Catholic Secondary School in Scarborough, TCDSB
St. John Paul II Catholic Secondary School has been recognized as a gold level EcoSchool for five years and as a platinum certified school for two. It has been engaged in local, national and global environmental issues, including raising funds for an NGO that provides wells and potable water in East Africa. St. JP II students are also mentoring elementary students on environmental sustainability. This year the school has been addressing food supply issues, while establishing an orchard and an apiary on the school grounds to help replenish urban bee colonies.

As soon as the Evil Dead remake was announced, the fan backlash ensued.
Message boards were filled with critical comments. Everyone wanted to know why it was necessary to remake the terrifying classic from 1981. Fortunately, the creative team behind Evil Dead 2013 has their wits about them and they aren't trying to top or outdo the original. They are working to make a scary, dark and haunting film that will take some of its inspiration from the ideas explored in the original Evil Dead film, but do it in a way that retells the story for audiences 30 years later. The remake is going to pay homage to the original, but, it's quite clear that no one is trying to do any disservice to it.
ShockTillYouDrop.com had the opportunity to visit the set of Evil Dead in Auckland, New Zealand.
We got the scoop on the production process and details on the plot and tone from director Fede Alvarez and producer Rob Tapert. We also chatted with the cast.
First time feature film director Fede Alvarez is taking a much darker tone with the remake. There is no official "Ash" character, and Sam Raimi, Rob Tapert and Bruce Campbell are making sure that the film doesn't go off the rails in a way that the fans don't want to see. Alvarez was very clear that he is not trying to make a frame-for-frame remake. He is making a dark, scary, violent and brutal-as-hell cabin in the woods film.
We arent trying to recreate anything, per se. We are trying not to watch the movie and match it. says Alvarez of the parallels between the original film and the remake. The trap in making a movie like this is the short cuts. Its easy to say that it worked in the original so it will work again.
The film has been cast with up-and-coming actors rather than household names. The entire cast has experience, of course, but going that route is allowing the film to be about the story and the characters, rather than the actors. Of the talent made available to us, Lou Taylor Pucci (Carriers) – who co-stars with Jane Levy (Suburgatory), Shiloh Fernandez (Deadgirl), Jessica Lucas (Cloverfield) and Elizabeth Blackmore – was the only one who had actually seen the original Evil Dead film prior to auditioning for the role. This gave Alvarez an advantage in making the movie without the talent trying to hold on to their idea of what Evil Dead should be.
Lou Taylor Pucci weighed in on his thoughts about what fans of the original will think of the remake. I think, as far as fans of the original film, half of them are going to love it and half of them are going to hate it, so they are going to talk about it. It takes some of the best things from the old film and brings some totally new ideas. You dont care anything about those original characters at all. Some people love that you dont and some people would rather follow an actual story. Thats what this is. Its got something for the original audience and something for a new audience.
Sam Raimi hand-picked Alvarez to direct the Evil Dead reboot. Raimi sees the original as a huge opportunity in his career and he felt that selecting a newcomer and passing the torch to let him or her direct the remake was a great opportunity to give a young director the same type of opportunity he had all those years ago.
Rob Tapert offered some insight on the decision to bring Fede Alvarez on board We were working with Fede on another project called Panic Attack, but it became very apparent that there were other movies that had similar storylines that were going to get to the theaters beforehand. We liked working with Fede and we really enjoyed the experience and Sam thought that we should hear what he had to say about Evil Dead. He brought us a pitch that was very different, but was scary. The beauty of that pitch and what got Bruce Campbell on board was that there was no Ash character. Fede actually dealt with that lynch pin of getting the project made by deciding not to deal with the Ash character.
The film is being shot almost completely in direct sequence. Its because of the blood bath. And for the actors, because its better if they know what the f**k is going on. That way, they are not jumping back and forth. Its a crazy story. So, that and the blood continuity," offered Alvarez on the decision to shoot the film sequentially.

Sabrina Washington
Growing up as a child I always knew I wanted to sing..
My parents (Jamaican born and bred) played loud music and told me I could sleep through anything..
At nursery I enjoyed rhymes and remembered them all too..
When I got older I wrote lyrics to get out of the boredom that knew..
My mum was really strict so I was confined mainly to my room..
It was okay because I sang and learned to rap in my room..
I was attracted to beats and how they made me feel..
How I could take a unreal situation and make it real..
That's when I feel in love with the words that came from my pen..
I could write anything and make a whole new world of pretend..
I could be rich, be poor, be big, be small, the options would never end..
In 2001 I was a part of a group which toured the world,
with 2 other girls my dreams had finally come true..
I learnt a lot of lessons in what was real and what was untrue.
We had walls full of accolades to show that we had done good..
When the curtain came down I was standing on my own dazed and.. confused by the silence that was so loud a place I never knew..
It took a little while for me to be myself again..
Frustrated by this thing called music - which was my so called best friend..
So I went for a long time without music - I retired my pen.
Then after my lows came my highs and I was writing again.
I've rekindled my affair with music and I'm never without my trusted bic pen.
So I share with you my music and I hope you that enjoy, if it makes you cry, smile or laugh, I've done my job!
I always said I wanted to wake up everyday and say I love what I do..
Which is the case for my love of music,
and all my listeners that have helped make my dreams come true!!

Dice as it did for Animal Collective). In my opinion, the two form a perfect double header for a concert, with Black Dice waging war on your senses, followed by Animal Collective's nurturing touch.
The recording was made from the same spot Animal Collective was recorded from and because of the inattentiveness of the crowd, there is a bit of chatting but it doesn't deter from the music. Basically, if you're a Black Dice fan, you need this set. It's a great counterpart to the Secret Project Robot set, which we recently fixed up using Logic. It sounds a lot better than the old version we put up, and you can grab the new version on the old page here. We don't have any song titles, so its just numbers for now. Whenever they announce tracks or release the album we'll add the actual titles here.

It's not easy to be creative week in, week out when you run a marquee. But the chance of a boring person running a marquee becomes much lower when said marquee exists in Alma, Colorado—the highest incorporated town in America at 10,578 feet. Creative people (but not necessarily perfect spellers; one can only be so awesome) tend to live at high altitude. Seriously, you can look it up. Or just go talk to some folks in Alma. Start with the person who runs the marquee at the South Park Saloon.
4 thoughts on "Postcard: Alma, Colorado"
Just look, Devon! The place is for sale. You could buy it and then invite Kray-fish, Dishpan, Mitchell, and myself up there for a cocktail hour spelling bee. Good piece, Chief.
Ha. That sounds damn good. I considered cropping out the RE sign and just focusing on the marquee, but I figured if anyone is going to buy the South Park Saloon, the world will be better off if that person is a Gazette aficionado.
Just thinking out loud here (always a dangerous endeavor) but that place looks perfect for a Mountain Gazette office. We could double up and go broke selling stuff and publishing. Best of the season to the Tribe.
Oh yeah, need to invite Starkers, too! Peace, Alan. (Devon, you know what starkers means, right?)
But it also means crazy, right, Alan?

Born in Ethiopia in November 1970, Sampurna grew up in Darjeeling, graduated from New Delhi, and is now based in Mumbai. Her debut poetry collection, Sight May Strike You Blind, published by the Sahitya Akademi (Indian Academy of Letters) in 2007 was reprinted in 2008. Sampurna's poetry has appeared in Indian and international journals such as The Little Magazine, New Quest, Chandrabhaga, Indian Literature (India); Stand Magazine, Wasafiri (UK); Drunken Boat, The Literary Review (USA); Wespennest (Germany), Interlitq (Argentina), Carapace (South Africa) and has been anthologized in 60 Indian Poets (Penguin); Both Sides of The Sky (NBT); We Speak in Changing Languages (Sahitya Akademi); Interior Decoration: poems by 54 women from 10 languages (Women Unlimited); Imagining Ourselves (IMOW, San Francisco); Fulcrum (Fulcrum Poetry Press, US); The Bloodaxe Book of Contemporary Indian Poets (Bloodaxe, UK) and The HarperCollins Book of Modern English Poetry by Indians (forthcoming, HarperCollins). Her poems have been translated into German, Swiss-German, Gaelic, Irish, Scots, Welsh, French, Tamil, and Bambaiyya. Her translation of Sukumar Ray's poetry and prose Abol Tabol: The Nonsense World of Sukumar Ray into English was reissued in 2008 as a Puffin Classic titled Wordygurdyboom! She has also translated the Bengali poet Joy Goswami. Sampurna has authored several books for young people, including The Fried Frog and Other Funny Freaky Foodie Feisty Poems (Scholastic 2009). Her first novel, Rupture, was published by HarperCollins in 2009 and her second poetry book, Absent Muses, by Poetrywala in 2010. Her second novel, The Land of the Well, will be published in October 2011 by HarperCollins.
Calling Sight May Strike You Blind "a strong and accomplished debut" in The Hindu Literary Review, poet and critic Arundhathi Subramaniam described Sampurna's work as "poetry of verbal muscle, formal flexibility and control, intellectual curiosity, an ability [...] to throw away a line, toss in an image without overworking it, while operating, like every poet must, on more levels than one", while eminent Indian poet Keki Daruwalla wrote in his foreword, "Hers is a poetry of subtle impressions, far-off correspondences (but never far-fetched!), dissimilar images moulded into a poetic whole".
Sampurna's second poetry book Absent Muses has been described as containing "explorations of the adventure of being a word-child" that "demand of the reader a corresponding suppleness and agility" (Arul Mani in Tehelka); poems that "dexterously balance the spirit of intellectual inquiry and dialogue with the impulse to emote" (K. Srilata in The Hindu), that "free-ride darkly on the energy of words" (Vivek Narayanan in Biblio) and "reach forward in space and time, to shape the expanding curve of experience into record. They are tools of investigation into myth, history, metropolitan life and, importantly, the ambiguities of the personal quest for poetic expression" in which "craft forms the skin; the world, in all its vivid and irresistible detail, provides the viscera" (poet, curator and cultural theorist Ranjit Hoskote).
