"I was definitely a little nervous going into the shoot – I wanted the photos to feel natural and not come off as too "staged." Kate made us all feel totally at ease! As soon as I met her I knew it was going to be a great experience. It was clear she is a pro – she could not have a more perfect personality for family photography! I cried the first time I saw our photos, and I will truly treasure them forever."

In real estate it's location, location, location. In photography it's quality, quality, quality. When you are looking for a photographer, you want to look at their exposure, white balance, and focus. Is it all correct and consistent? Before you inquire with a photographer on pricing information, you want to make sure that you will receive quality images. Some families get photos done yearly. Some only get them done every few years, or just once when their kids are little. No matter how often you get photos done, these images will be hanging on your walls, in frames at your office, and in albums that many generations will get to enjoy. Making sure you have a photographer that can deliver you images with correct exposure, white balance, and focus should be top priority.
Just as important as getting some light in the eyes is having it come from a good direction. We've established overhead isn't good direction, neither is straight from camera. So turning on your built-in pop flash isn't going to give you good light. Neither is sticking a speedlight on top. Light direct from the camera angle flattens the subject, that is not what you want. You want the light to come from the side more, 30-45 degrees from camera is a good starting point. To learn more about this read my article on the 6 Lighting Patterns Every Photographer Should Know.
When I'm photographing kids I make a total idiot of myself. I make funny noises, I sing songs (I'm really bad but they don't care), I make fish faces, I play peek-a-boo behind the camera. I run back and forth to the camera with the puppet. I lie on the ground, I stick my butt out. Kids are the ones that have life the right way around, it's us adults that ruin it. Let them be kids, let them have fun. Then be ready to capture it when it happens.

Thank you so much for this post! I too am trying to "learn" newborn photography, just did a shoot of my friend's 10 month old daughter (they turned out beautiful!), but the little one month boy was another story! I am shooting another one month old little girl tomorrow, hopefully I will learn from my mistakes I made today! I am doing the pictures for free to learn, but this is so hard! I wish I knew what I was doing wrong, or do I just need to practice? Any tips would be greatly appreciated! Oh, I was raised in San Diego, my whole family is there, will be visiting for Christmas this year. Will be there for 2 weeks to pack up my mom and move her! Maybe I can get in on a photo session??? Hopefully I will have it figured out by then!
These are great tips to take photos of your pregnancy. The best dates for pregnancy photo shoot are going to be towards the end of your pregnancy but not too soon as to be in the possible delivery window. Yes there are early babies and they just want to come out and see you sooner. Ask your photographer to book your maternity photos from weeks 34 and 35 where you will be showing the most and still have several weeks til possible delivery.
See #1 first of all. Then look at #6. Being a photographer means that sometimes you have to also become a comedian, or a clown. Knowing the right thing to say or do to make people smile is mostly experience. Sometimes you'll get tough adults too. The dad in the photo above by the brick wall pretty much has the same expression all the time. I've known this family and photographed them for 13 years, they're friends too. So I know I can bug him a little bit or get out the ducky to have some fun at his expense.
Sounds great right? Well often it's a bit of pain pairing your phone with your camera. Most apps made by camera manufacturers for smartphones are terrible. Then when you're actually using the app you'll find it's nearly impossible to shoot photos in quick succession (because of the lag between the camera and your phone, and also because it's tough to repeatedly tap the shutter release button on the app).

Yep, it's true… and it has been true for over 150 years. If you want the dress to stay white instead of a dull gray, then you'll probably need to dial in some positive exposure compensation. The light meter in your camera will see the white dress and think it's bright, but it isn't bright–it's just white! The camera tends to compensate for this large "bright" spot in the photo and makes the exposure of the dress too dark. Positive exposure compensation fixes this problem in a jiffy (Thanks Jess Joey)

She makes use of everything around her starting from her kids to animals on her farm, fascinating natural light and colors and even weather conditions to capture her fabulous photographs and leave you stunned. Elena Shumilova's photographs are a perfect source of inspiration to start photographing your own kids. Her only source of inspiration is her desire to express what she feels and she focuses on adding visual and emotional depth to her photos through using snow, fog, rain, smoke and more items that can be found in the surrounding nature. 8 Adrian Sommeling – Netherlands

Lighting: If you talk to any photographer, they'll tell you that lighting is 90% of what makes a photo good or bad. One of the best ways to understand lighting is to hold up your hand and face your palm toward a window. Then start rotating your hand back and forth and look at the different ways shadows are cast on your hand as you move it around. If you face your hand directly at the window, the light falls very evenly and cleanly, but if you start moving your hand at a ninety degree angle away from the window, it creates shadows that make your hand look moody and dramatic. This is what photographers do all day. We analyze light. So as you're looking through photographers' portfolios, you'll start to notice that we all play with light differently. Some photographers prefer really bright photos that make the world look light and airy, while others use light to create mood and emotion. For example, take the photos below. They are of the same bride, taken moments apart, but the light is totally different, and therefore the photos are totally different.
If having the digital files from your session is important to you, then there are some details that you'll definitely want to understand up front. Does the photographer offer digital files to the client? If so, are they included in the price? And if they're extra, how much will they cost? Will you get a print release? Some photographers will give you a print release that allows you to print the photos anywhere you want, while others will restrict you to a certain printer, or even to web-use only.
Avoid hiring family or friends. It may be tempting to hire somebody you know to be your wedding photographer. You may be drawn towards hiring someone you trust, who knows you and your partner well, and you think will understand what kind of pictures you want. While this might turn out perfectly well, it is highly likely that this person will not have the technical skills and experience to give you the best photos.[2]

"I believe in people's individuality and connection. Everyone loves differently and everyone's story deserves to be told. I try to tell the story I'm presented, not faking things, but instead seeing the beauty in everyone and shooting my story that way." he later goes on to say "I started shooting weddings because I thought wedding photography was awful, I wanted to see if I could do it differently. And that was always my compass. When the word of "my style" spread it more and more became the norm, but the world is a big place and cultures are different. I always adapt, but I stay true to what I believe in."
Flatter yourselves, Moms: Yes, Moms, I'm talking to you. You're organizing, you're planning, you're making it happen, every day. YOU deserve to look amazing in these photos. Don't forget about YOU. Play up your assets. If you have great legs, don't hesitate to show them off a little. It's OK to be a hot mama. If you have an area of insecurity, think about how you can minimize that with your outfit choice. Scarves /pashminas/jackets are awesome accessories that can totally help highlight the best version of you. If you have insecurities that you want to share with me - please do. BUT, you're not allowed to do it during your session. Let's get that out of the way beforehand, so it doesn't bring us down on session day. :)
*Make The Location Count*If you're not shooting at home, look for colorful locations that your subjects will find stimulating and distracting. Zoos, carousels, circuses, and amusement parks will banish lifeless expressions and drab backgrounds. "Make sure your subjects are having fun," says Teddy Madison, a pro from central Georgia who specializes in families (www.exodusphoto.com). (Above Photo) Interaction is the key to great family portraits, says Charlotte Geary.Charlotte Geary
Around your world in a day: Create a meaningful backdrop for your engagement photos by revisiting nearby sites that are significant to the two of you: the restaurant where you had your first date, the ice cream shop you frequent on Sundays, the bus stop where you shared an umbrella—you get the idea. While the camera's snapping, retell your best couple stories and relive a few of the moments that brought you together—it's a perfect recipe for a series of romantic, fun candids.

She advises against using a Speedlight mounted on the camera. While this may be her preference, and often for good reason, it really depends on your location's light. I tend to shoot in open shade under a large tree where it can get pretty dark. Shadows under the eyes, nose and chin can be eliminated with a slight flash fill. In post processing, I'll using Lightroom's dodge tool to add more light to faces, if necessary. Even a half-stop boost will make your subjects stand out.
Babies look peaceful while sleeping — and they are also easier to work with for photographs because they aren't going to pull out of that swaddle. That doesn't mean you can't photograph a newborn that's wide awake, but be aware that many of the poses you see aren't possible with an alert baby because they wiggle out of that perfect placement of the hands and toes.
Keep location in mind. Another helpful item to consider when trying to decide what to wear in your family photos is the location of your photoshoot. Are you going to be on the beach where there are plenty of neutral tones or under a tree surrounded by bright fall foliage? Select a color palette for your outfits that will complement the setting. Pick out items of clothing in colors that will complement your background and not compete with it.
The outfits you choose help set the mood of your engagement photos, so wear pieces that feel like "you." If you aren't into dresses, don't wear one! Instead, try a pretty printed romper or jumpsuit. If your fiancé is into accessories, let him or her rock a trendy straw hat or colorful shades—simply put, you can't go wrong with pieces that channel your personal style.
Excellent information! I'll be doing my first maternity shoot in a few months. A friend of mine is preggers and we are getting so excited about doing her session. Just bought the cutest basket to put her sweet baby girl in once we get to the newborn session!! The information here is going to come in so handy for me shortly!! Thanks for posting this!! 🙂
There is no other destination in the world quite like New York City: bright lights, bustling crowds, endless corridors of sky-high buildings. Visitors flock to this urban jungle for many reasons – whether it be for a family holiday, a surprise proposal or a spontaneous NYC elopement. When you make the trip to such an amazing place, you want to be able to treasure the moment and remember your time there for many more years to come. Hiring a specialised elopement & wedding photographer is a far more impressive way to capture the moment than fuzzy selfies. #stoptheselfies!

Create a contract. Before you agree to go into any photo shoot with someone, make sure that you have a business contract that they must sign. This should include everything that their money is paying for and the things you are and are not liable for. For example, make it clear if you hold liability for photos that are accidentally and irrevocably deleted, or if after signing the contract it is no longer a problem of yours.[24]
I mean Carry On. Don't let the pressure of the day overwhelm you. Yes, this is an important day in the couple's lives. And yes they have entrusted you to capture it. But there is no point in having a mental breakdown at the wedding. The couple will lose confidence in your ability and you will give a negative impression of the images being produced. Just breathe and stay calm on the outside even if you're breaking down on the inside.
I love using props for my portrait sessions. I have simple props available; however, if you have something specific in mind you are welcome to bring your own as you know your family/child's preferences/colors and activities/hobbies, etc. I have holiday props for Halloween, Easter and Christmas. Balloons for children's birthdays make great props too. We use high resolution backgrounds and flooring complimented with designer furniture to create vintage, timeless looks for your portrait session.
At the end of the day, it all comes down to storytelling. Sure, according to Wikipedia or any online photography forum, there is a right and a wrong way to take a photo. But when it comes to wedding photography, what you're really looking for is a storytelling technique that matches your idea of how your wedding will be. For example, I was recently photographing a wedding with my assistant and I took a photo of the couple dancing that I really loved. She laughed and shrugged and said to me, "You are such a romantic." I was kind of surprised, but then I realized that I had specifically chosen to tell a story in a way that made the moment very romantic. This story, for example:

Timidity won't get you 'the shot' – sometimes you need to be bold to capture a moment. However timing is everything and thinking ahead to get in the right position for key moments are important so as not to disrupt the event. In a ceremony I try to move around at least 4-5 times but try to time this to coincide with songs, sermons or longer readings. During the formal shots be bold, know what you want and ask for it from the couple and their party. You're driving the show at this point of the day and need to keep things moving.

From canine sports to exotic animals, to some of the biggest musicians in the world - Anabel's work doesn't fall into any specific niche. She believes there are no limits to what you can create, and to photograph everything that gives you that spark of inspiration.
If your photographer specializes in maternity, they will likely have maternity dresses, wraps and accessories in their studio available to use. The benefit is you don't have to go and buy maternity dresses that you only wear a few times—one dress can run you anywhere from $100 – $1000 each! Please check with your photographer about their gown rental policy. Depending on the gown's quality and intricate detail work, there may be rental and/or dry-cleaning fees.
Thank you so much for this post! I too am trying to "learn" newborn photography, just did a shoot of my friend's 10 month old daughter (they turned out beautiful!), but the little one month boy was another story! I am shooting another one month old little girl tomorrow, hopefully I will learn from my mistakes I made today! I am doing the pictures for free to learn, but this is so hard!

Many things can go wrong in the day, so we need to be well prepared. We must have a backup plan (in case of bad weather), charged batteries, blank memory cards, think about the routes and time to get to the places and get a full day itinerary so we know what will happen in the next moment. If possible, we attend the ceremony rehearsal where a large amount of information is gathered about possible positions to shoot from the lighting, the order of the ceremony, etc.
The conclusion: if all of this seems like a ton of information to digest, then keep it simple and look for two criteria: Do you like the photos and do they make you feel happy? Not a super visual person? Then it's totally fine to ignore the first question and move onto the second: Do you like the photographer and do they make you feel happy? More important than lighting, composition, or any fancy technology, those are the power rules to live by.
This could save you a lot of aggravation, upset and possible humiliation. Speak with the Officiant before the Ceremony begins. Ask if they have any particular rules. Generally speaking, a church officiant will be a little more strict than a non-religious officiant. Some places only allow you to stand in certain places, whilst others don't allow flash photography. Some don't allow photography at all! If the officiant tells you this on the day of the wedding your best option is to instantly go and speak with the groom. Just explain to him that the officiant has told you that you aren't allowed to take photographs during the service. This generally doesn't happen as the couple have already met with the officiant but just be prepared that you might catch them in a bad mood.

Now that you and your BAE are engaged, it's time to commemorate the momentous occasion with a romantic photoshoot! But where do you start? There are so many cheesy couples' photos and countless run-of-the-mill shots that it can be a challenge to snap a photo that is truly your own. But thankfully, you don't have to rely on those predictable poses and overdone locations. There are a handful of things you can do to make sure your photos turn out perfectly one-of-a-kind and feel right for you and your parter.

Take the time to go through the prints from your childhood and have your favorites converted to digital files so you'll always have them, sans the yellow tinge of time or (gulp) water damage. Two popular services are ScanDigital and ScanCafe, both of which require you to send in your negatives, prints, or slides. They'll send back your digital files on a DVD along with your originals. Prices range from 29 to 88 cents per photo.

There are many aspects to keep in mind when deciding what to wear for your family photos. Coordinating outfits for family photos doesn't need to be difficult. You can never go wrong with selecting a few focal colors and textured clothing items, as well as considering the season. Focus on accomplishing a cohesive look and dressing in outfits that will allow your photos to take on a timeless feel. Of course, the most important part of your family portrait is to document the love that your family shares. We're here to help you with the rest. These family photo outfit ideas below will allow you get a one-of-a-kind portrait that has a close-knit family feel.
Just as important as getting some light in the eyes is having it come from a good direction. We've established overhead isn't good direction, neither is straight from camera. So turning on your built-in pop flash isn't going to give you good light. Neither is sticking a speedlight on top. Light direct from the camera angle flattens the subject, that is not what you want. You want the light to come from the side more, 30-45 degrees from camera is a good starting point. To learn more about this read my article on the 6 Lighting Patterns Every Photographer Should Know.
Network with everyone. You should take every opportunity to network.[15] If you are working towards a specific specialization, such as wedding photography, network with everyone in your town who has an association with weddings. Talk to and give your card to wedding planners, cake bakers, caterers, other photographers (they may have a conflict and be asked for a referral), wedding dress shop employees, etc.
Thanks for the article. As i am new and just venturing out in the world of professional photography, could you suggest which camera family i should go for Pro DSLR Canon or Nikon. As you are aware that photography involves a lot of investment and its wise that i chose a good body, and build a array of lenses to go with it. I am focusing on Wildlife as well as potrait photography for the time being. Hopefully one day i would be shooting for Vogue, Nat Geo etc. Your able advice and guidance is requested.
Most of the time children are oblivious to any seriousness involved in a wedding day. Just let them do their thing and they will more than likely provide you with comedy gold. They will yawn in the ceremony, pick their noses during the speeches and dance like there is no tomorrow. If the children belong to the couple getting married all the more reason to photograph them. The couple will love these types of shots. Plus they are great blackmail tools for the parents to use when they are older.
Both the beanbag and nursing pillow can be disguised with blankets or backdrops, so bring a few different colours if you have them available. Bring more than one of anything you need that the baby will be lying on — or you may be stuck if that item is peed on. Baskets and buckets also work well for posing newborns, but again, make sure you can use those props safely.
A great way to keep your couple happy after the wedding is to send them a few preview images. They might be expecting this if you have discussed it in your contract but if they're not it can be a great surprise. Just drop them an email telling them how much you enjoyed their wedding and give them some indication as to when the final images will be complete. This is a great way to keep them in the loop. Additionally, they might share the images on Facebook or with family and friends which can be great for referrals.
"I will place my couples in a location that I want them to be in and "pose" them but always letting them know that the "pose" is simply a starting point and to make it their own. Remembering that they are not mannequins and can move. Additionally, most of the images I share online show my couples connecting: being with each other, holding each other. So I often get hired by couples who are comfortable in their own skin and are not overly shy with their partners."
Our portable newborn photography backdrop stand is a must have accessory for any photographer taking baby pictures. It fits any size/type posing bean bag and it's tubular design allows you to clip your backdrop or blanket directly to the top and sides to get the perfect wrinkle free stretch (includes two full size metal clamps as shown in the photos). This lightweight stand easily assembles in minutes and is ideal for photographers who not only shoot in their studio but who also travel and would like to shoot on location. Comes complete with an easy to follow instruction diagram for fast assembly.
Finding homes for unwanted photographs. Many people feel strongly that no old photo should ever be tossed. However, if you have tons of photos but have no connection to them (or if they're just not your thing), what can you do with them? One option is to donate them. Historical societies worldwide often accept photos, especially if you can provide information about how they came to you. It can be a point of pride for small towns across the U.S., Europe and elsewhere to see how far and wide their native sons and daughters have traveled over the course of generations.

Ruling By Task Force: Politico's guide to Labour's new elite, by Tony Barker with Iain Byrne and Anjuli Veall. Politico's/Democratic Audit.
Reviewed by Matt Cooper.
In 1997-8 the New Labour Government set up no fewer than 295 'task forces' to review and propose official policy. They had 3,103 members. Of those just 2% were trade unionists. Thirty-five percent came from the managerial hierarchies of private industry. Of the rest, 12% were 'experts', mainly academics, 7% came from local government, 15% from consumer groups, 4% from professional bodies and 25% from the upper echelons of the public services. Groups like Tenants' Associations and Parent Teacher Associations were almost entirely unrepresented.
From the '40s to the '70s, not only Labour governments but also the Conservatives used bodies such as the National Economic Development Council to try to balance between capital and labour, or at least make a show of doing so. The Blairites consult only capital. This shift parallels the driving-out of the organised working class from policy formation in the Labour Party itself. The bourgeois-packed Task Forces are another lever for Blair to raise New Labour away from any fear of influence by the working class.
The process also raises questions of democratic accountability. The Nolan Rules require that appointments to permanent bodies - such as Quangos - now be advertised and that ministers be accountable to Parliament for who they appoint. Temporary bodies, which nearly all Task Forces are, are not covered. So ministers appoint who they want and are accountable to no-one for it. Power has been taken away from the representatives closest to the electorate, in the Commons and in local government, and handed to ministers and their unelected and unrepresentative big-business cronies. No task force meets in public.

History of the Cuban Trotskyists
The Hidden Pearl of the Caribbean, by Gary Tennant. Revolutionary History, Vol 7, No3 (2000).
Reviewed by Pablo Velasco.
Cuban Trotskyism had emerged from the Cuban Communist Party in the early '30s, first as an opposition group expelled from the party, and later as an independent party, the PBL, which included in its ranks some of the most widely respected militant workers in Cuba. At its peak in 1933, the organisation had perhaps 1,000 members. It was one of the largest groups of Trotsky's supporters in the world, and it had substantial influence in the labour movement.
The Cuban Trotskyists could have developed into a leadership capable of leading the workers to power. They were heavily repressed by the state and vilified by the Stalinists, but their central failure was in their politics - principally, their misunderstanding of the centrality of an independent working class line in the theory of permanent revolution.
Gary Tennant has carefully reconstructed the weaknesses in their analysis, especially their view that there was a separate 'democratic, anti-imperialist' stage to the revolution which justified subordinating themselves to the nationalist forces which were then dominant. Likening this to the mid-'20s Stalinist view which betrayed the Chinese revolution, the author has in fact identified a tendency within early Trotskyism which would ultimately consume its successors in the '50s and '60s.
As Cuban Trotskyism declined as a force capable of giving leadership to the working class, so indeed did the militant Cuban labour movement. By 1938 Cuban Trotskyism could count no more than 100 members; by 1948, only 20. Having lost the ideological-political battle for working class leadership, it then successively lost its organisational independence and its political clout, leaving it impotent in the face of one despot (Batista), and then another (Castro). It disappeared altogether as an organisation in the early 50s. Some Cuban Trotskyists did reorganise themselves after 1960, only to be suppressed by the Castroites by 1965. Their final demise was a barometer of the Stalinisation of the Cuban revolution, and one reason why Cuba cannot be considered any kind of workers' state.
No go logo
No Logo, by Naomi Klein. Flamingo.
Reviewed by Lisa Le Feuvre.
'Branding' seems to be everywhere. Big transnational corporations have shifted from making 'things' to making 'ideas of things'. A move to concepts rather than commodities, and a change from manufacturing to marketing, is an alert to the process of branding that Klein sites at the core of modern capitalism.
The conversational tone of No Logo makes for a rapid read, even if it is sometimes repetitious or overly polemical. This is an informative publication that encourages readers to actively question the products in our environment.
Citing case studies of major corporations - including Levi's, Gap, Starbucks, Nike and Shell - Klein argues that this insidious branding results in further alienation of consumption from production. At its best when describing the human rights violations in the factories of the clothing industry, No Logo gives us examples of Western multinationals sub-contracting the production of goods to non-unionised factories in Asia and South America. Klein describes working environments that mirror the sweat-shops against which workers fought for and won major employment reforms at the start of the last century in Europe and North America.
Klein describes Gap T-shirts and Nike trainers being produced by disenfranchised individuals whose weekly wage would not cover the retail cost of a single item that they have produced.
Klein presents statistics that are incredibly emotive and, although she moves on to describe various strategies that activists have employed to voice their resistance to this tide of branding, gives the reader few suggestions for an alternative. Looking to the activities of Reclaim the Streets, the McLibel campaign, Adbusters, Culture Jamming, as well as to the power of consumer boycotts and the refusal of cultural sponsorship as political tools, Klein encourages the reader to be aware of the methods that lead to the production of items that we often unquestioningly buy into.
No Logo asserts that individuals need to stand up against these unacceptable working conditions, rather than regard them simply as an inevitable cost of capitalism. Klein suggests that by turning the logo back on to itself we can use the very strategies of the multinational corporations to protest against their activities, and perhaps ultimately make some kind of difference. Reconnecting brands to work and being aware of global connections, for Klein, holds the possibility of questioning power relationships between producers, consumers and those tools of production known as employees.
Fighting the power?
Redemption Song: Muhammad Ali and the Spirit of the Sixties, by Mike Marqusee. Verso.
Reviewed by Francis Lawn.
As I was writing this review, Ali appeared on TV, along with the usual 'galaxy of stars', at a dinner to honour President Clinton. He has been brought back into the fold of corporate America, and is now almost an establishment figure. But that was far from the case when, after beating Sonny Liston to become the World Heavyweight Boxing Champion, he announced in the company of Malcolm X that he was involved with the Nation of Islam.
Redemption Song is a useful and readable book, taking us through the twists and turns of Ali's association with Malcolm X and the Nation and his refusal to take part in the Vietnam War. Despite being criticised by other black sports stars Ð such as the first black player in major league baseball, Jackie Robinson, who also testified to the House UnAmerican Activities Committee against Paul Robeson, regretting it in later life Ð Ali became a representative of Black America loved by many.
Marqusee uses anecdotal evidence from writers and acquaintances from around the world to argue that Ali was a symbol of protest, and attributes Ali's phenomenal popularity to this. Whilst there is no denying that Ali's political actions did affect his popularity, I think many people just loved him for his courage and skill in the ring and for his charm and humour. Boxing was hugely popular at the time, and a heavyweight boxing match was a much more important event than it is now.
Marqusee does draw attention to a number of things about Ali that are less well known Ð his lack of support for the civil rights marches, his dropping Malcolm X when Malcolm fell out of favour with Elijah Muhammad, the fact that but for Ali there would be no Don King Ð but he seems to excuse these as incidental. One of the more distasteful things was Ali accusing other fighters of being Uncle Toms for no other reason than to gain an advantage in a fight or to gain publicity.
Marqusee calls Ali an imperfect hero. He describes a pan-African alliance across the Atlantic, citing examples of artists such as Robeson and Louis Armstrong visiting Europe and Africa, African intellectuals such as Nkrumah studying Black American music, and the Bandung conference attended by Nasser, Nehru and Sukarno. He argues that Ali's actions placed him in this lineage. I am not so sure. Furthermore, the politics of Stalinism, bourgeois nationalism and police-state dictators are not ours!
Marqusee places Ali's actions in the context of the Civil Rights Movement and popular culture (there is a needless hagiography of Bob Dylan). Here Ð and in the way Marqusee links Ali to 'pan-Africanism' Ð I think he treats the Black Atlantic alliance as if it were a revolutionary force. Sadly, it was not that.
I have always had a really soft spot for Ali both for his boxing (which I'm not so sure about any more, either) and for his refusal to fight in Vietnam. It took courage to do that, but I don't feel that he really engaged in the political struggle.
The fate of Pauline Hanson
The Rise and Fall of One Nation, edited by Michael Leach, Geoffrey Stokes and Ian Ward. University of Queensland Press.
Reviewed by Jeff Payne.
Preaching a potent mix of racism, identity politics and nationalism, Pauline Hanson shot onto Australia's political landscape. Three years later the party she founded had largely disappeared, burned in the fire of its own creation.
On 10 September 1996 a nervous, almost tearful voice was heard across the chamber of the House of Representatives. The speech bemoaned the spending of taxpayers' money on 'servicing Aboriginals, multiculturalists and a host of other minority groups'. The contents of this speech dominated the political scene for the next three years.
Trade liberalism, globalisation and an increasingly competitive society had small landowners and the lowest paid manual workers feeling betrayed by the Conservatives and the Australian Labor Party respectively. Some of these people believed 'others' were making the important decisions that affected their lives. 'Lefties', academics and career politicians were seen as the driving forces of an inequality that advantaged Aboriginals and immigrants at the expense of Anglo-Australians. Achieving 25% of the vote in the Queensland State election of June 1998, One Nation secured 11 seats.
Even with electoral success One Nation's demise had already begun. In the Queensland state election the popularity of the party had been built around the belief that it would represent those who had lost their voice in political debate, the so-called 'forgotten majority'. What is not addressed in the book is that it was an impossible task to empower Hanson's supporters with representation and overcome the divisions in their various aspirations. One Nation could not cross class boundaries and satisfy both the interests of workers and landowners. The desire for more meaningful representation by One Nation's members contradicted the undemocratic party structure and the autocratic style that arose to suppress 'natural' class divisions that existed within the Party.
The space established for Hanson by the other political parties and the mainstream media in helping to create One Nation's short-lived success are often ignored in the book. Both the major political parties in Australia have long insinuated that the causes of the problems in our society are the result of immigration and the non-participation of the unemployed and Aboriginals. In implicit but full support of these claims, the media regularly ran stories (and still does) on the supposed cost of Aboriginal 'welfare' and the flood of immigrants. Throw in with these arguments a failing education system, which is becoming increasingly expensive to participate in, and the outcome is One Nation. If it were not for the scapegoating of immigrants and 'bludgers', then people would be forced to address the real issues that are causing hardship. These are indications of the inability of bourgeois society to remedy the problems of capitalism.
The Rise and Fall of One Nation is an academic account of the social and economic forces which created and finally destroyed Hanson. The reader must go beyond what is written to see that it is an example of the inability of bourgeois solutions to overcome the social and economic dilemmas of capitalism.
The Mensheviks and 'new class' theories
From the Other Shore - Russian Social Democracy after 1921, by Andre Liebich. Harvard University Press.
Reviewed by Paul Hampton.
This book is a tremendous piece of scholarship, charting the evolution of the Russian Menshevik leaders during 40 years of exile and their influence within the wider social-democratic parties, especially in Germany and Austria.
Their newspaper Sotsialisticheskii Vestnik (Socialist Courier), published from February 1921, using a wide network of contacts, including Bolsheviks high up in the government, was able to print reliable accounts of the economic situation, as well as political developments. Despite huge political disagreements with them, Lenin read the paper and the Soviet government seems to have provided funds for it. Later, the paper was the first to print a range of authentic documents and revelations, including Lenin's Testament and some of Bukharin's last reflections before his execution.
After Stalin had snuffed out the last remnants of workers' power and established his dictatorship, Trotskyists drew on Menshevik sources as they developed their analysis of the USSR. Contacts with Leon Sedov in Paris seem to have been particularly close. Later, in the '40s, Max Shachtman wrote some of his best pieces of analysis whilst borrowing explicitly from Menshevik sources, in particular by Schwarz on the bureaucracy and the working class, and Dallin on Russian imperialism and forced labour.
The Mensheviks were not simply useful sources of information. They were among the first to theorise both state capitalist and 'new class' theories of the USSR, and the first to develop the 'planlessness' thesis now associated with Critique. Kautsky's bitter reflections on Russia and Hilferding's influential article 'State Capitalism or Totalitarian State Economy?' owed much to the Mensheviks.
Theories which saw the Stalinist USSR as progressive also often owed much to the Mensheviks. They split in 1940 because one wing had become qualifiedly pro-Stalinist while the other had developed a view sharply rejecting the USSR as 'totalitarian'.
Like many other tendencies within the socialist movement, the Mensheviks were torn apart politically by the two-camp world that emerged after 1945. They were unable to develop an independent working class line between Washington and Moscow. Nevertheless, for uncovering the extent of their influence and the significance of their analyses, Professor Liebich deserves our gratitude.

In today's post we will list out the top 7 uses of diatomaceous earth for plants and gardening. 7 benefits of this Magic Powder plus how to use it for each purpose with some precautions.
Diatomaceous earth also called Diatomite or in short DE, is rightly called MAGIC POWDER because it has got several important uses not only in gardening but also in medical field and multiple other uses.
This is a naturally occurring organic substance obtained from certain natural rocks. It is made up of fossilized diatoms. Diatoms are single-celled organisms having a silica rich shells. This powder looks and feels like chalk powder and has great porosity and abrasive properties. This is not so expensive and you can purchase this online from HERE!
Now, lets list out the top 7 uses of diatomaceous earth in gardening.
- Ant Control
Why is it so important to control ants in your garden? Actually Mealybugs and Aphids have a symbiotic relationship with Ants which protect these pests from predators and also carry them to the plant tips. The Ants in turn get the honeydew sugars excreted out of their anus as their gift.
How to use DE for ant control? Sprinkle DE dust over the infested plants and also over anthills and you should get great results.
- Get Rid of Slugs and Snails
These creatures eat away a lot of your plants in your garden overnight. To get rid of slugs and snails, apply DE powder in a circle around the plant and when their soft bodies come in contact with the powder, the sharp silica particles inflict tiny cuts on the skin. The dehydrating effect of the powder causes them to lose too much fluid and they eventually die.
- In Compost
Maggots in your unfinished compost pile can be a nuisance. Just sprinkle this powder in your compost pile and get rid of maggots organically without using any chemical pesticides.
- Mix it in your Potting Soil
Although it doesn't have much to offer by way of nutrition, it has the properties to hold the nutrients from fertilizers and then offer it as a slow release to the roots. Plus it also makes your soil well draining and well aerated.
- Prevent
Rodents and Animals from Entering your Garden
How to use it for this purpose? Do You know most rodents and animals run away from the smell of citrus and peppermint?
You can use small containers with DE powder and add few drops of the essential oils of lemon or peppermint and keep these near the entry points of these animals. The DE powder absorbs these oils and retains the smell for a longer period of time unlike some cotton balls or a piece of cloth soaked with these oils.
- Control Other
Insects like Flies, Ticks and Mites
These are not only troublesome but can transmit diseases in humans and pets and hence dusting DE powder on your plants and around them will keep your garden clean from these insects.
1. As an Organic Pesticide
Diatomaceous earth is a non-toxic way to control pests in the garden. It is very effective against all types of pests on your plants like aphids, mites, thrips, mealy bugs, caterpillars and almost every pest. The mechanism of action is it's a contact poison which kills pests by extreme dehydration.
How to use Diatomaceous earth on plants?
First of all Water your plants for the day. Then dust the plants with an applicator or just sprinkle the powder on your plants. This will help the powder stick to plant surfaces. Since dehydration is the main mechanism of action, moisture on your plants renders the powder ineffective and also in rainy season – apply when there is no rain.
To avoid killing beneficial pollinators like bees and butterflies, do not sprinkle on flowers.
So, there you
have it folks. With DE powder and neem oil, you can eliminate most of the pests
in your garden safely and organically without using any harmful chemicals.

Happy Gardening!

Then is wouldn't be a Saga game anymoreGreenKing1 said:
Would be awesome but would prefer it to span the whole map, so you can bring the Roman empire back to it's former glory!
But it would be too vague and not concentrate on this specific conflict. The purpose of a Saga game is for a zoomed in conflict, that's why the Fall of Constantinople is a valid scenario. And I'd rather they moved away from Western Europe, we've seen a lot of it in the past games.MuhsinTpd said:
TW Saga Costantinapole 1453 can be good but if they will make TW Medieval III, they will make 453 - 1492. So it will contain 1453 and this wars. I dont know will TW Medieval III possible. Lots of people want to TW Medieval III but I dont want it. Beause we see lots of medieval pc gamse. and already we have Medieval II. I think they will make TW Saga 100 years wars or TW Saga 30 years wars.
They are my opinion. (Sorry my English is not very good.)

Envisan: New Sediment Treatment Center in France
- Business & Finance
Envisan France, the French branch of the environmental division of Jan De Nul Group, recently launched the construction of its Soil and Sediment Treatment Center in La Seyne-sur-Mer.
This center will be specifically designed for the treatment and recycling of polluted sediments and soil.
Based on its expertise gathered in Belgium, where legislation allows for re-use of sediments in the construction industry, Envisan will open its first center in France. It will be built on a site of 3.4 hectares (8.4 acres) and will feature several treatment techniques for polluted sediments and soil.
The center is an extension of the SEDIMED research program, which aims to lift the administrative and regulatory barriers for allowing recycled sediments to be used in the construction works industry: roads, concrete structures, maritime works and landscaping or anti-noise pollution eco-models.

US United States: Minneapolis ignites after the death of an African-American, killed by the police
United States: a police station burnt down in Minnesota after the death of George Floyd
Thousands of people attended the fire in the northern districts of the city, after some had broken down the barriers which protected the building. © Kerem Yucel / AFP Fire in Minneapolis, Minnesota, May 28, 2020 Protesters torched a police station in Minneapolis (northern United States), during the third night of clashes against the police, in hands of which died George Floyd , a black man, during a muscular arrest.
The city of Minneapolis in the northern United States saw its third night of riots on Thursday after the death on Monday May 25 of George Floyd, a 46-year-old African American who was killed by a white police officer. The protests have so far been mostly peaceful, but the violence has gone up a notch: demonstrators have burnt down the police station where the police officers are working, clashes and looting have also taken place.
With our special envoy to Minneapolis, Éric de Salve
United States: the source of the
Editorial conflagration. The death of George Floyd provided the spark. But the anger which ignites the American cities finds its roots in the repetition of the police violence and the inequalities highlighted by the coronavirus. Editorial of the "World". There are many reasons for the explosion of anger that engulfed American cities following the death of George Floyd, a 46-year-old African American, during his police arrest on Monday, May 25, Minneapolis (Minnesota).
Anger has intensified markedly with a new stage in Minneapolis. In a barely believable scene in the United States , dozens of protesters raided an police station , setting fire to the building. Riot forces remain on hold for the time being.
Tear gas
The police only shoot tear gas sporadically but allow the looting to continue. Many of these rioters are making no secret of it this evening: they favor violence as a mode of political action.
"We protested peacefully for so many years, it didn't get us anywhere. When we protest peacefully, we don't get along, gets angry Rachel, a local protester. So what do you expect? That we sit idly by while waiting for the next death? No. Now let's take action!
Anger and sadness
However, a few minutes earlier, in front of the store where George Floyd was killed, suffocated by a white police officer , the atmosphere was more peaceful. Anger and sadness reigned, but also meditation, with several pastors who came to pray in front of an improvised memorial.
In Minneapolis, African refugees mourn their American dream gone
© Kerem Yucel A man on a skateboard passes in front of a mural of a degraded American flag, in Minneapolis on May 30, 2020 Their "American dream" was already in bad shape, the death of George Floyd dealt him a fatal blow. Indignant at police violence and racism in the United States, many African refugees have been marching with their "brothers" for a week in Minneapolis. "I came here because my country was at war, and I end up with two little boys who are afraid because they are not white".
That while anonymous people were continuously depositing words, bouquets of flowers with, everywhere on the walls, inscriptions asking for justice for Georges Floyd. Or "I can't breathe", the last words of this 46-year-old African American, who died under the knee of this policeman and whose death filmed by passers-by ignites this evening still Minneapolis.
Trump threatens protesters, his tweet is reported for " apology for violence "
The American president then spoke out on the riots, but his tweet was reported on Friday May 29 by Twitter for "apology for violence ". Donald Trump called the Minneapolis protesters "scum", also suggesting that law enforcement may open fire on them.
"This tweet violates Twitter's rules of violence. However, Twitter believes that it is in the public interest that this tweet remains accessible, "said the social network on a banner on the tweet from Donald Trump.
Thousands protested again in London - "Racism is a virus" .
London, Jun 7 (Reuters) - Thousands of protesters gathered in front of the US Embassy in central London on Sunday to protest again against police violence and racism. Some of them wore face masks labeled "Racism is a Virus". In the United States, African-American George Floyd was most recently brutally killed in a police operation in Minneapolis. Since then there have been protests in more and more cities, not just in the United States.

Whether it's due to accident or decay, tooth loss can be a pretty traumatic event. But it's not irreplaceable. If you lose a tooth, you might be surprised at the options modern dentistry can offer to replace that missing tooth.
If it's a sudden, accidental injury and you lose the entire tooth, roots and all, it may even be possible to replace the tooth in its socket. But time is of the essence, the tooth replacement must occur within an hour of the accident.
A more realistic alternative is a tooth implant. Teeth implants are the next best thing to having natural teeth restored to your mouth. That's because, instead of being a removable device inside the mouth, like dentures, implants are permanently anchored into the jaw itself.
The key to a successful dental implant procedure is called osseointegration, or the meshing together of implant and bone. Good candidates for dental implants need jawbone ridges that are in good shape and healthy oral tissues. Then, when the implant device is inserted, a chemical and mechanical bond is formed. The jawbone actually grows into the dental implant.
The thing to remember is... if you lose a tooth, it's not the end of the world. Tooth implants are only one of your options. Regardless of the cause of your tooth loss, there's something you can do to recreate a healthy, natural-looking smile. Contact your dentist today to get more tooth implant information.
Are you missing a permanent tooth? Do you have gaps in your smile? Do you wear dentures and experience some of the following problems:
You may be a candidate for dental implants, an alternative to missing teeth. Implant dentistry uses your jaw to hold a tooth replacement or bridge, rather than anchoring it to a healthy, neighboring tooth. The results are natural-looking teeth implants that look, feel and function as your own!
Healthy teeth are a gift we often take for granted. Losing one or more teeth impacts our smile, our confidence, and our enjoyment of our favorite foods. Dental implants are technology's way of taking us a step closer to a tooth replacement that feels secure and looks like our own.
Implants take several steps, but you will be able to continue your regular professional and social routines. Initially, the dentist will evaluate your mouth, teeth and jaw to determine whether dental implants are a good option for you.
For most patients, there are two surgical procedures involved. First, in the actual tooth implant placement, the implants are surgically inserted by an implant dentist into or atop the jawbone. Over the next three to six months, the implants are left alone, so that the anchor can bond to the bone, creating a strong foundation for the teeth to come.
Second, the new tooth or teeth are created and attached to the anchored dental implant. You now have teeth implants that might as well be your own: they look natural, are comfortable, and withstand the rigors of grinding and chewing. No one will know that your tooth has an artificial, man-made tooth implant root.
It's true. Your current dental health will influence whether you're a good candidate for a dental implants. Some medical conditions may interfere with normal healing, such as diabetes or heart problems. Finally, the supporting bone in your jaw must be healthy; if you clench your jaw or grind your teeth, the success rate for your dental implants will drop. Less success also is noted in smokers.
A complete examination and X-rays by your dentist will determine if you are a suitable candidate for dental implants. You must also commit to a strict schedule of flossing, brushing, rinsing, and check-ups to keep them healthy.
Technology gets the credit for this exciting alternative to missing teeth, dentures and bridges. Researchers noticed in the 1950s that titanium and some other materials formed a strong bond to the bone. That gave rise to the use of dental implants. Today, there are patients who have had dental implants for more than 25 years. Hundreds of thousands of tooth implants have been inserted, boasting more than a 90% success rate! Metal joint implants used in other parts of the body were actually developed from the success of dental implants.
It has been around for decades and people know it works. Schedule an evaluation with your dentist to determine if dental implants are right for you. Discover how they can improve your quality of life and put a genuine smile on your face.
