I don't know much about the heady world of international chess. But I do know it doesn't need an Anna Kournikova. No sport does. During her brief period of trying to play tennis, Kournikova grabbed headlines and sponsorship dollars, turning her matches into a sideshow, and failed to win one singles title. So the fuss over Australian Arianne Caoili seems a little unfortunate, because what the Kournikova label actually means is that she's a laughing stock.
It's not a particularly reasonable comparison, either. All that the newspapers have to go on is that she's ranked a mere seventh in a fairly lame Internet Chess Beauties competition. (How lame? Its founders write "Fortunately, we, who believe that chess can be not only serious and tiresome work but also just fun, are not two few, indeed!" Sound like real party guys.) A "respectable seventh", the Herald article calls it. Boy, talk about drawing a long bow. Bobby Fischer's probably eighth.
Dwarfs: Sensitive little souls they are.
Breathing: Why is it that we can't eat through our nose, but we can eat and breathe through our mouth? We don't eat and breath through the bottom, I think this is a blessing. Is this a good point, or not really?
Not really, Arianne. But it's better than the one about 'dwarfs', who are particularly sensitive about being called that.
She's also whacked up a few singing samples, just in case she gets any visits from record producers who might be interested in signing chess starlets who can sing a natty version of 'Over The Rainbow'.
Let's face it – the reason everyone's interested in Caoili is not because they're swooning over her. It's because her story's become an internet phenomenon to snigger at. Because the idea of chess having any kind of glamour babe is a contradiction in terms. It's a bit like dubbing someone the Pamela Anderson of librarians.
All this, though, was before yesterday's story, though. Now, the main reason everyone's giggling is that two chess players fought over her. In other words, there was a nerdfight. Specifically, 30-year-old Danny Gormally punched 24-year-old Levon Aronion at the Chess Olympics. And if that wasn't funny enough, both guys have glasses. Brilliant. Come on, guys, there's no need to resort to violence. Settle it like men – with a chessboard.
But really, who'd fight over the Anna Kournikova of chess? Winning would make you – shudder – the Enrique Iglesias of chess. Although according to the Herald-Sun, he's the David Beckham of chess. Which is even more wishful thinking than calling her daughter the sport's Kournikova. Where's the evidence of Aronion's sarongs or difficulty stringing a sentence together?
Of course, this incident – which may lead to disciplinary action for Gormally, another hilarious notion – was an instant checkmate as one of those 'quirky' stories that media organisations love to add a 'lighter side' to the generally dreary news. And when it's about a pretty girl, they get to chuck in a cheesecake photo. Check out the Hun's, which puts the usually-reliable SMH's one to shame.
Let's hope Caoili enjoys her 15 minutes of fame, and that she doesn't suffer under the delusion she'll have many more. Sure, Kournikova hung around for years, but she got shots of her underwear on TV all the time. Whereas the best Arianne can hope for, probably, is a follow-up piece when she hook ups with Aronion. Unless she isn't next attacked by a sensitive dwarf next time, irate about being patronised on her website. That'd be a lighter-side-of double-whammy.
Okay, onto the next quirky internet story. Has that three-armed Chinese baby done anything interesting lately? Forget Arianne already, he's just had one of them cut off!

Pot-growing trailer stolen from Denver trade show
DENVER | Tue Apr 5, 2011 10:19pm EDT
DENVER (Reuters) -A pot-growing trailer known as the "GrowBot" was stolen from a medical marijuana trade show in Denver over the weekend, and the owner on Tuesday offered a $5,000 reward for its return.
Greg Childre, who builds custom trailers for a variety of crops at his Georgia manufacturing plan, said the trailer was stolen from the High Times Medical Cannabis Cup in Denver late Sunday night.
The 28-foot long "GrowBot" trailer was driven out of the trade show parking lot in full view of security guards, Childre said.
Parking lot surveillance cameras captured the crime, but did not detect the license plates of the Dodge truck that hitched up the trailer and drove off, he said.
Childre told Reuters the trailer is computerized, and is stocked with grow lights and security devices.
"Anything you need to grow in a controlled environment," he said. "It has all the bells and whistles."
Childre said he builds the trailers for other crops, including mushrooms and blueberries, but most of his business is derived from the medical marijuana industry.
The trailer is valued at $50,000, and there was no marijuana inside the vehicle, he said.

The Abbey of Saint Gall (German: Abtei St. Gallen) is a dissolved abbey (747–1805) in a Catholic religious complex in the city of St. Gallen in Switzerland. The Carolingian-era monastery has existed since 719 and became an independent principality between 9th and 13th centuries, and was for many centuries one of the chief Benedictine abbeys in Europe. It was founded by Saint Othmar on the spot where Saint Gall had erected his hermitage. The library of the Abbey is one of the richest medieval libraries in the world.[2] The city of St. Gallen originated as an adjoining settlement of the abbey. Following the secularization of the abbey around 1800 the former Abbey church became a Cathedral in 1848. Since 1983 the whole remaining abbey precinct has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Around 613 Gallus, according to tradition an Irish monk and disciple and companion of Saint Columbanus, established a hermitage on the site that would become the monastery. He lived in his cell until his death in 646, and was buried there[3] in Arbon.[4] Afterwards, the people venerated him as a saint and prayed at his tomb for his intercession in times of danger.[4]
Following Gallus' death, Charles Martel appointed Otmar as custodian of St Gall's relics. Several different dates are given for the foundation of the monastery, including 719,[4] 720,[5] 747[6] and the middle of the 8th century.[7] During the reign of Pepin the Short, in the 8th century, Othmar founded the Carolingian style Abbey of St Gall, where arts, letters and sciences flourished. The abbey grew fast and many Alemannic noblemen became monks. At the end of abbot Otmar's reign, the Professbuch mentions 53 names. Two monks of the Abbey of St Gall, Magnus von Füssen and Theodor, founded the monasteries in Kempten and Füssen in the Allgäu. With the increase in the number of monks the abbey grew stronger also economically. Much land in Thurgau, Zürichgau and in the rest of Alemannia as far as the Neckar was transferred to the abbey due to Stiftungen.[4] Under abbot Waldo of Reichenau (740–814) copying of manuscripts was undertaken and a famous library was gathered. Numerous Anglo-Saxon and Irish monks came to copy manuscripts. At Charlemagne's request Pope Adrian I sent distinguished chanters from Rome, who propagated the use of the Gregorian chant. In 744, the Alemannic nobleman Beata sells several properties to the abbey in order to finance his journey to Rome.[8]
In the subsequent century, St Gall came into conflict with the nearby Bishopric of Constance which had recently acquired jurisdiction over the Abbey of Reichenau on Lake Constance. It was not until Emperor Louis the Pious (ruled 814–840) confirmed in 813 the imperial immediacy (Reichsunmittelbarkeit) of the abbey, that this conflict ceased.[3] The abbey became an Imperial Abbey (Reichsabtei). King Louis the German confirmed in 833 the immunity of the abbey and allowed the monks the free choice of their abbot.[8] In 854 finally, the Abbey of St Gall reached its full autonomy by King Louis the German releasing the abbey from the obligation to pay tithes to the Bishop of Constance.
From this time until the 10th century, the abbey flourished. It was home to several famous scholars, including Notker of Liège, Notker the Stammerer, Notker Labeo and Hartker (who developed the antiphonal liturgical books for the abbey). During the 9th century a new, larger church was built and the library was expanded. Manuscripts on a wide variety of topics were purchased by the abbey and copies were made. Over 400 manuscripts from this time have survived and are still in the library today.[3]
Between 924 and 933 the Magyars threatened the abbey and the books had to be removed to Reichenau for safety. Not all the books were returned.
On 26 April 937 a fire broke out and destroyed much of the abbey and the adjoining settlement, though the library was undamaged.[8] About 954 they started to protect the monastery and buildings by a surrounding wall.[7] Around 971/974 abbot Notker (about whom almost nothing is known; nephew of Notker Physicus) finalized the walling and the adjoining settlements started to become the town of St Gall.[8] In 1006, the abbey was the northernmost place where a sighting of the 1006 supernova was recorded.
The death of abbot Ulrich II on 9 December 1076 terminated the cultural silver age of the monastery.[8]

The territories of the Abbey of St. Gall from the mid-15th century to 1798
In 1207, abbot Ulrich von Sax becomes a Prince (Reichsfürst, or simply Fürst) of the Holy Roman Empire by King Philip of Swabia. The abbey became a Princely Abbey (Reichsabtei). As the abbey became more involved in local politics, it entered a period of decline.[3] The city of St. Gallen proper progressively freed itself from the rule of the abbot, acquiring Imperial immediacy, and by the late 15th century was recognized as a Free imperial city.[9] By about 1353 the guilds, headed by the cloth-weavers guild, gained control of the civic government. In 1415 the city bought its liberty from the German king King Sigismund.[7] During the 14th century Humanists[3] were allowed to carry off some of the rare texts from the abbey library.
In the late 14th and early 15th centuries, the farmers of the abbot's personal estates (known as Appenzell, from Latin: abbatis cella meaning "cell (i.e. estate) of the abbot") began seeking independence. In 1401, the first of the Appenzell Wars broke out, and following the Appenzell victory at Stoss in 1405 they became allies of the Swiss Confederation in 1411. During the Appenzell Wars, the town of St. Gallen often sided with Appenzell against the abbey. So when Appenzell allied with the Swiss, the town of St. Gallen followed just a few months later.[7] The abbot became an ally of several members of the Swiss Confederation (Zürich, Lucerne, Schwyz and Glarus) in 1451. While Appenzell and St. Gallen became full members of the Swiss Confederation in 1454. Then, in 1457 the town of St. Gallen became officially free from the abbot.[7]
In 1468 the abbot, Ulrich Rösch, bought the County of Toggenburg from the representatives of its counts, after the family died out in 1436. In 1487 he built a monastery at Rorschach on Lake Constance, to which he planned to move. However, he encountered stiff resistance from the St. Gallen citizenry, other clerics, and the Appenzell nobility in the Rhine Valley who were concerned about their holdings. The town of St. Gallen wanted to restrict the increase of power in the abbey and simultaneously increase the power of the town. The mayor of St. Gallen, Ulrich Varnbüler, established contact with farmers and Appenzell residents (led by the fanatical Hermann Schwendiner) who were seeking an opportunity to weaken the abbot. Initially, he protested to the abbot and the representatives of the four sponsoring Confederate cantons (Zürich, Lucerne, Schwyz, and Glarus) against the construction of the new abbey in Rorschach. Then on July 28, 1489 he had armed troops from St. Gallen and Appenzell destroy the buildings already under construction.[7] When the abbot complained to the Confederates about the damages and demanded full compensation, Varnbüler responded with a counter suit and in cooperation with Schwendiner rejected the arbitration efforts of the non-partisan Confederates. He motivated the clerics from Wil to Rorschach to discard their loyalty to the abbey and spoke against the abbey at the town meeting at Waldkirch, where the popular league was formed. He was confident that the four sponsoring cantons would not intervene with force, due to the prevailing tensions between the Confederation and the Swabian League. He was strengthened in his resolve by the fact that the people of St. Gallen elected him again to the highest magistrate in 1490.
An associate of the Swiss Confederation
However, in early 1490 the four cantons decided to carry out their duty to the abbey and to invade the St. Gallen canton with an armed force. The people of Appenzell and the local clerics submitted to this force without noteworthy resistance, while the city of St. Gallen braced for a fight to the finish. However, when they learned that their compatriots had given up the fight, they lost confidence; the end result was that they concluded a peace pact that greatly restricted the city's powers and burdened the city with serious penalties and reparations payments. Varnbüler and Schwendiner fled to the court of King Maximilian and lost all their property in St. Gallen and Appenzell. However, the abbot's reliance on the Swiss to support him reduced his position almost to that of a "subject district".[7]
The town adopted the Reformation in 1524, while the abbey remained Catholic, which damaged relations between the town and abbey. Both the abbot and a representative of the town were admitted to the Swiss Tagsatzung or Diet as the closest associates of the Confederation.[7]
In the 16th century the abbey was raided by Calvinist groups, which scattered many of the old books.[3] In 1530, abbot Diethelm began a restoration that stopped the decline and led to an expansion of the schools and library.
The interior of the Cathedral is one of the most important baroque monuments in Switzerland
Under abbot Pius (1630–74) a printing press was started. In 1712 during the Toggenburg war, also called the second war of Villmergen, the Abbey of St. Gall was pillaged by the Swiss. They took most of the books and manuscripts to Zürich and Bern. For security, the abbey was forced to request the protection of the townspeople of St. Gallen. Until 1457 the townspeople had been serfs of the abbey, but they had grown in power until they were protecting the abbey.
End of the Prince-Abbots
Following the disturbances, the abbey was still the largest religious city-state in Switzerland, with over 77,000 inhabitants.[10] A final attempt to expand the abbey resulted in the demolition of most of the medieval monastery. The new structures, including the cathedral by architect Peter Thumb (1681-1766),[11] were designed in the late Baroque style and constructed between 1755 and 1768. The large and ornate new abbey did not remain a monastery for very long. In 1798 the Prince-Abbot's secular power was suppressed, and the abbey was secularized. The monks were driven out and moved into other abbeys. The abbey became a separate See in 1846, with the abbey church as its cathedral and a portion of the monastic buildings for the bishop.

The Plan of St Gall, the only surviving major architectural drawing from the Early Middle Ages
The diagram version of the Plan
The Abbey library of Saint Gall is recognized as one of the richest medieval libraries in the world. It is home to one of the most comprehensive collections of early medieval books in the German-speaking part of Europe. As of 2005[update], the library consists of over 160,000 books, of which 2100 are handwritten. Nearly half of the handwritten books are from the Middle Ages and 400 are over 1000 years old.[2] Lately the Stiftsbibliothek has launched a project for the digitisation of the priceless manuscript collection, which currently (December 2009) contains 355[2] documents that are available on the Codices Electronici Sangallenses webpage.
The library interior is exquisitely realised in the Rococo style with carved polished wood, stucco and paint used to achieve its overall effect. It was designed by the architect Peter Thumb and is open to the public. In addition it holds exhibitions as well as concerts and other events.[12]
One of the more interesting documents in the Stiftsbibliothek is a copy of Priscian's Institutiones grammaticae which contains the poem Is acher in gaíth in-nocht... written in Old Irish.
The library also preserves a unique 9th-century document, known as the Plan of St. Gall, the only surviving major architectural drawing from the roughly 700-year period between the fall of the Western Roman Empire and the 13th century. The Plan drawn was never actually built, and was so named because it was kept at the famous medieval monastery library, where it remains to this day. The plan was an ideal of what a well-designed and well-supplied monastery should have, as envisioned by one of the synods held at Aachen for the reform of monasticism in the Frankish empire during the early years of emperor Louis the Pious (between 814 and 817).
A late 9th-century drawing of St. Paul lecturing an agitated crowd of Jews and gentiles, part of a copy of a Pauline epistles produced at and still held by the monastery, was included in a medieval-drawing show at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York the summer of 2009. A reviewer noted that the artist had "a special talent for depicting hair, ... with the saint's beard ending in curling droplets of ink."[13]
St. Gall is noted for its early use of the neume, the basic element of Western and Eastern systems of musical notation prior to the invention of five-line staff notation. The earliest extant manuscripts are from the 9th or 10th century.
In 1983, the Convent of St. Gall was inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List as "a perfect example of a great Carolingian monastery".[14]

Over the years the Theatre de la Huchette's troupe travels all over the world. Still using the magnificent, original scenery created by Jacques Noël in 1962 the theatre's actors continue to perform Eugene Ionesco's two legendary plays in their original direction. With the quality of its other productions they protect a reputation for iconic, rigorous, and modern French theatre.


text:
Grigore Vieru (14. únor 1935, Pererîta – 18. leden 2009, Kišiněv) byl moldavský básník.

Vystudoval historii a filologii na Státní pedagogické univerzitě v Kišiněvě. Psal reflexívní lyriku, plnou panteistického opojení, která byla silně ovlivněna lidovou poezií. K nejznámějším sbírkám patří Fiindcă iubesc (Protože miluji) a Taina care mă apasă (Tajemství, jež mě tíží). Psal také verše pro děti, které prozrazovaly autorovu znalost dětské psychiky. Své verše psal rumunsky, čímž v časech začlenění Moldavska do Sovětského svazu vzdoroval rusifikačním snahám. V 70. letech napsal Malou ovečku, první slabikář v rumunštině v sovětském Moldavsku.

Po roce 1989 byl propagátorem znovuspojení Moldavska a Rumunska. Zemřel na následky automobilové nehody. V letech 1990–1994 byl poslancem Moldavského parlamentu (za Frontul Popular din Moldova, Lidovou frontu Moldavska). Moldavský prezident Vladimir Voronin vyhlásil v den Vierova úmrtí státní smutek.

Кратер Мајтнер је велики ударни метеорски кратер на површини планете Венере. Налази се на координатама 55,6° јужно и 38,4° западно (планетоцентрични координатни систем +Е 0-360) и са пречником од 149 км међу највећим је ударним кратерима на овој планети (трећи по величини).

Кратер је име добио према аустријско-шведској физичарки и првој жени на месту редовног професора Берлинског универзитета Лиси Мајтнер (1878—1968), а име кратера је 1979. усвојила Међународна астрономска унија.

На радарском снимку кратера јасно се издваја неколико степенастих прстенова чије висине постепено расту како се иде од унутрашњости кратера ка спољашњем делу. На југозападном делу примећује се мањи светлији ток, вероватно од таложења избаченог материјала.

Two themes predominate in all of N. Scott Momaday's work, both poetry and prose. First, he celebrates material, sensory existence. The writer lovingly examines nature and the artifacts of human life, from the smallest creature to the most vast panorama. Whether describing a ghost town in Colorado or the coming of rain to a southwestern desert, he is concerned to express the perceptual and emotional experience of physical life with eloquence and precision. The prose is often lush; the poetry can be spare, but exceedingly resonant.
A second preoccupation is with imagination, that power of mind that transforms and illumines the perceptible world and endows it with meaning. Momaday sees language as the primary vehicle for this transformation and affirms again and again the elemental importance of words. Collective imagination working on natural existence creates culture, and in his examination of the contrasts and interweavings of the cultures of his experience, Momaday explores them as products of the human imagination. In an early essay, he speaks of two Kiowa legends, which he then shows to be emblematic of Kiowa thought and history and of the Kiowas' response to their history. In the same essay, he points to the metaphorical language of a non-Indian historian whose imagery betrays his fundamental bias and underlies a whole theory of civilization versus savagery.
Momaday's prose works—his essays, autobiographies, and fiction—treat the dynamic of the two elements—sensory life and the power of imagination—discursively and sometimes analytically. His poetry, on the other hand, focuses most often on the fundamental meeting of nature and imagination in the act of perception itself. This is a consummately introspective procedure, and the poetry collected in The Gourd Dancer demonstrates a loving attentiveness to the natural world as it impinges on the mind.
The number of Momaday's published poems is small—The Gourd Dancer contains fewer than fifty—and he has spoken of the slowness of writing. Nevertheless, the poems derive from a wide variety of traditions, from the eighteenth century epigram to Whitmanian self-celebration to Native American ceremonial lyrics. They consist of free verse, metrical verse, prose poems, and syllabic verse. Throughout Momaday's poems, in those reflecting his time in the Soviet Union, astronauts' lunar explorations, a vision of planetary holocaust, reflections on landscape—and in his prose works as well—there is woven this theme of the relationship between material reality and the signifying imagination.
"Before an Old Painting of the Crucifixion"
The subtlest and most complex of Momaday's poems is probably that titled "Before an Old Painting of the Crucifixion." The poem is a meditation on being and nothingness. The painted scene evokes in the speaker an imaginative reconstruction of the death of Jesus as a historical event, and he muses on the despair that comes with his recognition of nonbeing. The painting also calls to mind the sea, and memory evokes a recent vision of nature. Nature, however, holds ultimate emptiness for the speaker, whose consciousness of death permits him to see the void beyond death and alienates him from the merely natural process of dying. No inherent significance resides in natural life, and mere imagination remains the only (largely unavailing) defense against the inconsequent passage of time.
It is a profoundly pessimistic poem, and one with a specifically European, post-Cartesian formulation. Momaday has a great admiration for Emily Dickinson, and he has quoted her poem beginning "Farther in summer than the birds" as a realization of this alienation from nature, along with the anguish that such knowledge brings. This perception of humans and nature, he believes, is also contrary to the vision of nature in Native American thought. Traditional Indian philosophy regards humans as part of nature, indivisible from its processes and kin to all its creatures.
The poem titled "Angle of Geese" draws implicitly on this cultural tradition. This poem had its genesis in a particular event, the death of a friend's child, and it also alludes to a geese-hunting trip Momaday went on as a young adolescent. The goose in the poem is not mere meaningless nature, however, but ancestral, and the poem implies a usable wisdom in nature and affirms human continuity with all forms of life.
The development of Momaday's use of traditional materials can be traced through the poems that appear in his novel, House Made of Dawn, and in the two autobiographical works, The Way to Rainy Mountain and The Names. In general, he moves from using traditional texts to inclusion of material learned at firsthand to personal and family traditions and incorporation of general elements of form and content.
Momaday's Kiowa name Tsoai-talee (Rock-Tree Boy) incorporated the Kiowas' sacred mountain Tsoai (Devil's Tower in South Dakota) and the Kiowa word for boy, talee. In The Names, Momaday extends the process of personal mythologizing begun in The Way to Rainy Mountain by inventing an episode in which his great-grandmother's husband, Pohd-lohk, presents him to the family, relates to him the history of the people, and finally gives him the name Tsoai-talee.
"The Delight Song of Tsoai-talee"
In "The Delight Song of Tsoai-talee," appearing in his first collection, Angle of Geese, and Other Poems, Momaday draws on Indian traditions and on the nineteenth century American Romanticism that he has admired particularly in Frederick Goddard Tuckerman and Emily Dickinson. The first-person emphasis, as well as the catalog of items in the natural world, call to mind the second song that Benally sings in House Made of Dawn. Unlike the Navajo song, however, in which each item has a specific meaning in a highly complex religious symbology, Momaday's poem reflects more than anything else Walt Whitman's expansive identification of his own persona with emotionally felt nature. The Names carries other echoes of this Whitmanian exuberance, notably in the epilogue with its imaginary journey across the land.
Plainview poems
The one poem that does appear in The Names, however, is written in pentameter couplets and echoes Wallace Stevens in its image and themes. This poem is printed in The Gourd Dancer as the first in a set of four poems on the imaginary "Plainview." Taken together, the four Plainview poems reflect the scope of Momaday's fascination with differing cultural perspectives and traditions. The punning title introduces the multiple themes of place and perception. Plainview is a location on the midwestern landscape of which Momaday has written frequently with both familiarity and reverence. The vastness of space implies infinity at the same time that it emphasizes the particularity of objects perceived. Plainview also refers to sight, for whatever is in "plain view" should be visible, whole and unambiguous. In this sense the title is ironic, since in fact four Plainviews are given, each from a different perspective.
"Plainview: 1" is an explicit study in the act of perception. The speaker places himself in relation to the object of vision—the eleven magpies—and records the metamorphoses of shape and light he observes as wind and clouds pass over the grass. The same sense of underlying emptiness prevails here as in the earlier poem, "Before an Old Painting of the Crucifixion," and finally the speaker decides that the birds themselves are an illusion. The poem suggests a theme elaborated in the other three: that landscape itself is the product of imagination.
"Plainview: 2" makes use of specifically Native American themes and forms. The speaker's vision of the old Indian, drunk and pathetic, stands in contrast to the old man's nostalgic vision of his horse. The incantatory repetition and the celebration of the horse reflect native tradition. This version of what is in "plain view" stresses the irony of that title in the disparity between the visibly vulgar and the invisible beauty that lives in imagination and recollection.
"Plainview: 3" is simply a triple set of metaphors comparing the rising sun with a string of glass beads, a drift of pollen, and a prairie fire. Once again the reader is asked to examine the process of perception, this time in the comparison of visual images. The brief poem recalls Imagist works.
Finally, "Plainview: 4" mixes modes, oral and written, prose and poetry. History comes to life in the landscape as the speaker muses on the woman he often dreamed of, a white woman who had been a Kiowa captive. The haunting excerpts from traditional frontier ballads, heard only in the mind's ear as the speaker contemplates the abandoned house, bear out Momaday's comments on the importance of oral tradition to cultural continuity. The poem invokes history and tragedy, but finally both are as evanescent as the magpies in the first poem of the set. Only the wind whistles through the empty house.
The Way to Rainy Mountain
The Way to Rainy Mountain is more complex than The Names, more highly wrought, less conventionally autobiographical. In structure and theme, it fuses most successfully the introspective European viewpoint and the communal vision of the oral tradition. Momaday's recollections and anecdotes begin to take their place in legend and lore, and history metamorphoses into myth. He frames his prose narratives with two poems, "Headwaters" and "Rainy Mountain Cemetery," which begin and end the book.
The two poems use conventional meter and rhyme yet echo the traditional Kiowa materials as Momaday interprets them in the text. In "Headwaters," the speaker stands at noon on the plains, meditating on the hidden vitality and even violence immanent in the silent landscape. Only the moss on the hollow log suggests the marshland that is there and the waters swelling out of the land. The waters themselves point to a deeper, archaic source of primitive life forces, as the author's exploration in the chapters that follow takes him to the sources of his family, his people, and his definition of human life. The poem's title refers to one of the geographical objects of Momaday's journey—the ancestral home of the Kiowas at the headwaters of the Yellowstone River. The image of the insect at the mouth of the log recalls the Kiowa creation myth of the people's emergence through a hollow log; this image of a figure within a circle reappears at the end of the introduction in Momaday's recollection of the sight of a cricket outlined against the moon "like a fossil" and immediately following the drawing by Momaday's father, Al Momaday. The image is a talisman for the centripetal nature of the journey as one that reaches within for self-knowledge.
"Rainy Mountain Cemetery," the poem that closes the book, refers to both the starting point and the goal of Momaday's journey. The pilgrimage began with Momaday's visit to his grandmother's grave, where he was inspired to visit the places that she had seen more perfectly in the mind's eye, as she recollected the historical migration of the Kiowa people. The poem is the speaker's graveside meditation on her, although, in keeping with Kiowa tradition, her name remains unspoken. The speaker reflects on the silence and, implicitly, on the nothingness that is all that remains after death. The name on the stone, he says, is no more than the stone's name, and the word "stone" ends both the first and last lines of the poem, setting an off-rhyme against the first and third lines of the second stanza. The only unrhymed line ends in the word "name." The poem reiterates Momaday's preoccupation with the power of language, stated most explicitly in the often-quoted passage from section 8 in which he asserts the creative power of language and links it to Kiowa traditions of naming. In "Rainy Mountain Cemetery," then, silence is nonexistence, and the name on the tombstone nothing but a shadow—the absence of light. The poem concludes the metamorphosis that the book has both documented and achieved: The physical has been transformed into myth. The physical world, vibrant on every page, is transformed to words and lives beyond itself in the imagination. The same is true for the life of the people and that of the individual. This, Momaday says, is the human miracle: the creation of self through imagination by means of words.
The visual arts
Between the publication of The Names in 1976 and the appearance of his second novel, The Ancient Child, in 1989, Momaday was in much demand as a lecturer and interview subject. During the period, he published several important essays, including an introduction to Native American literature for a new literary history of the United States. Although he continued to write poetry, no new collections were published.
At this time, Momaday worked more intensively on another interest, graphic arts, exhibiting prints, drawings, and paintings in several shows. Momaday's work in visual arts intersects with his sense of language and poetry, as the title of one essay, "Landscape with Words in the Foreground," suggests. A series of drawings of shields embodies the connection. The shield motif recalls the cover design that Al Momaday, the poet's father, made for The Way to Rainy Mountain. Momaday's drawings include words, usually texts from his prose poems or retellings of traditional stories, as elements in the graphic presentation. Two of these shield pictures are reproduced in Charles Woodard's Ancestral Voice: Conversations with N. Scott Momaday (1989). The move toward mixing and integrating visual and verbal modes began in Momaday's publications with his drawings for The Gourd Dancer; the shield series emphasizes the modernist tendency in Momaday's work that was implicit earlier in the collage structure and mixed media of The Way to Rainy Mountain. The shield drawings combining picture and text as a graphic element suggest the work of modernists such as Pablo Picasso and the Italian Futurists, whose work, like Momaday's, also grew out of the Symbolist and post-Symbolist tradition of nineteenth century Romanticism.
Fourteen years in the making, Momaday's second novel, The Ancient Child, reflects his preoccupation with his dual creative identity as poet and painter. The novel's protagonist, Locke Setman, is an accomplished, successful painter, a cosmopolitan man of the world at home in the great cities of Europe and America. Setman, however, is dissatisfied, suffering from a malaise of the spirit. His spiritual guide and mentor is Grey, a young Navajo woman who resembles Emily Dickinson (she wears white in her dreams and spends much time putting together books of her poems). Both Grey and Setman are alter egos for Momaday, with clear parallels in his own life and intellectual development: The poems Grey writes are Momaday's poems from The Gourd Dancer. The ending of this uneven novel is extremely ambiguous: The protagonist, like his counterpart, the bear-boy of the ancient legend, leaves the articulate, language-centered life of human beings. His eventual return is uncertain.
In the Bear's House
Momaday's 1999 mixed-media book, In the Bear's House, weds all his artistic interests, combining painting, poetry, prose, and an extended dramatic dialogue between Yahweh (or "Big Mystery") and Urset, the Native American ur-bear. All explore aspects of Kiowa bear mythology, a theme long dear to Momaday's heart. Momaday uses the figure of the bear as a vehicle to investigate the interrelationship of wildness and humanity, the tensions of hunter and hunted, the seamlessness of dreaming and storytelling. The strength of this work may lie in Momaday's organization around one powerful theme approached through a variety of artistic genres rather than limiting himself to a single medium—prose, poetry, or paint.

The Paul Smith's Shop at the Left Bank: A Feasibility Study
Abstract: The ownership and management of the Left Bank Café in Saranac Lake, New York would like to partner with Paul Smith's College in an effort to create a long-term relationship between the two organizations. The Left Bank Café (LBC) identified available rental space adjacent to their existing business in order to benefit both parties. The new venture that is to be known as the Paul Smith's Shop at the Left Bank, will be a synergistic addition to the space. The Left Bank Café can offer take out premade soups and salads as well as French fare known from the café. The Market will offer a selection of Paul Smith's goods such as apparel, knive sets, syrup, books, and other products identifying the college. Further, for customers interested in programs at the college, there will be readily available kiosks and two visual screens showing pictures and information about the school. The Shop will also function as an ambassador for Paul Smith's within the Saranac Lake community with which the school has close ties.

Reintroduction Feasibility of the Adirondack Wolf
Abstract: Mammalian carnivores are increasingly the focus of reintroduction attempts in areas from which they have been extirpated by historic persecution. The gray wolf (Canis Lupus) has been one of the most successful examples of large carnivore reintroduction around the world. The purpose of the study is to determine whether or not it is possible to successfully reintroduce the gray wolf into the Adirondack Park environment. Static and dynamic spatial geographical models were used to evaluate whether a proposed wolf reintroduction to the Adirondack Park is feasible. Ecological, economic, and sociopolitical aspects are limiting factors that are analyzed to determine if the reintroduction is structurally possible for the park.

Alpine Ecosystems on Ski Area Summits in the Northeast: A Best Management Practices Manual
Abstract: Over the past half a century, anthropogenic climate change has triggered temperatures in the northeastern United States to rise. This increase has led to decreased winter precipitation and a longer annual growing season. Species found in upland/montane habitats on the southern edge of their range limits are particularly threatened by these changes. Warmer temperatures have allowed larger woody plants to advance up mountain slopes, entering the habitat of these fragile species. In the next decade, we will witness a complete disappearance of alpine flora from several locations across the northeast including Whiteface in New York, Sugarloaf in Maine and Mount Mansfield in Vermont. Managers of ski resorts can therefore play an important role in promoting the continued persistence of high-altitude flora and fauna through carefully considered management decisions can also serve to promote the reputation of the ski industry as stewards of mountaintop ecosystems. Doing so will allow for continued study of the species that exist within these communities, the protection of biodiversity, and increased revenue for the resort itself through elevated public image and mountain-top tourism. To help begin these conservation efforts, we have created a best management practice (BMP) manual to guide ski area managers in making these developments. It includes techniques for sustainable slope, soil, vegetation and wildlife management, erosion control, artificial snow production, and ski slope construction and design. Also included are marketing techniques and an overview of the economic viability of the practices outlined in this manual.

Possible Limiting Soil Macro-Nutrients of Sugar Maple (Acer saccharum) Growth in an Adirondack Hardwood Stand
Abstract: Sugar maple (Acer Saccharum) has been in decline for the past few decades. Several studies have been done throughout parts of Canada and New England to determine what is limiting sugar maple growth. By mimicking one of these studies, I conducted a fertility study to show correlations between soil fertility and three different measures of tree growth. I selected 40 dominant sugar maple trees in a hardwood stand in the Adirondack Park in northern New York to sample. I collected two increment cores from each tree, measured the DBH and calculated basal area at each tree. I also collected mineral soil from the base of each tree that was sampled and tested its chemical properties and macronutrients that are most related to growth. I found weaker correlations between soil fertility and growth than my parent study had found. This may be because I didn't have enough variation in my samples, measured growth or fertility in a way that wasn't the most accurate, soil characteristics may not be limiting, or some soil characteristics may be co-limiting growth.

Challenges Associated with Conservation Easements In the Adirondack Park and Recommendations for Improving the Process
Abstract: With conservation easements only becoming popular in the past 40 years, they are at the developmental stage where weaknesses start to become apparent as land starts to change hands from one generation to the next. It is important to find and correct these barriers to ensure these same problems do not occur in the next 40 years. My focus was performing research within the Adirondack State Park of New York. I utilized Semi-Structured Interviews (SSI) along with SSI guides to collect my data while using a sampling technique referred to as a snowball sampling approach. I interviewed two different categories of conservation easement personal. 1. Land owner/manager with conservation easement on property 2.Agency Workers from The Nature Conservancy and the New York State Department of Environmental. I then used emergent themes to reveal the discrepancies or weaknesses in current conservation easements along with their common strengths. From there I used (S.W.O.T) Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats analysis to provide recommendations for policy revising.

COVID cases low in Pike; Flu A spreads
According to the Georgia Department of Public Health, COVID cases remained low at 13 over the past two weeks.However, Flu A has hospitalized 27 metro-Atlanta...
Pike unites to build barn for PCHS
By Staff Writer on September 16, 2015
Members of the community gathered at the newly constructed barn on the Pike County High School campus Friday, Sept. 4 for the barn's grand opening. 'This all started as an idea of FFA and ag teacher Rachel Patrick at the middle school,' said FFA Alumni president Beth Camp. 'She applied for the Operation Round Up grant from Southern Rivers and they believed in her vision enough to offer us a $10,000 grant.' Many of those in attendance also helped the project become a reality through various types of contributions. The barn will be used by PCHS agriculture students and Future Farmers of America members throughout the school year. 'The community really came together to build this barn,' said Camp. 'The administration assisted us greatly in getting the building on the property and we couldn't have done it without everyone's cooperation. We are very fortunate because the Department of Corrections was outstanding about getting the work done at no additional cost. Melissa Bottoms of Pike's Farm Bureau and I were at the barn nearly every day making sure everything was on track. Thankfully Southern Rivers Energy was kind enough to give us a $10,000 grant – and the community chipped in and gave the rest of the money needed.' The new barn has a wash room where students can prepare animals when showing them in competitions and where students can learn how to care for the animals in different ways. The barn has a tack room to keep equipment needed for caring for the animals. 'This barn took a lot of people working together to get it to this point today,' said Southern Rivers Energy director of marketing Bobby Ferris. 'The school has gone from having one agriculture teacher to having three agriculture teachers and a feeder program at the middle school. We are giving these kids an opportunity and the skills to be successful.' This year there will three ag teachers at PCHS, including Morgan Hurkmans who will teach the Animal Science Pathway and use the barn as her lab space for students. Agriculture Mechanics teacher Chase McGill will primarily use the machine shop and Horitculture building for his Pathway but he will also oversee students as they build the stalls for the barn. Award-winning agriculture teacher Greg Waits will continue to teach from the STEM Academy but will be able to use the barn for certain lessons and for the many FFA students at PCHS. 'There are more than 425 FFA students and that number has grown threefold in the past few years,' said Waits. The large 42 foot by 84 foot pole barn has a concrete foundation and is located right behind the Science, Technology, Engineering and Math building. 'This will allow students to learn a lot of hands-on ag science and learn about animal health first hand,' said Camp. 'The students can have hands-on exposure to animals instead of just reading about them. The students will actually be building the six stalls and will learn how to measure and cut and all the things that go into creating an animal facility. A lot of students wouldn't have a chance to raise livestock on their own because they don't have a place to keep the animals,' Waits added. FFA students helped raise funds for the project by selling ice cream at the Concord Country Jubilee and contacting local donors. 'If you have a worthwhile project, Pike County is a fabulous place to live,' said Camp. 'People will come together to help make it a reality. People saw as a worthwhile cause and they were willing to give their time and money to make it possible. A lot of student applications are going to be made possible because of this barn.' Assistant principal James Standford said since each of the Ag Pathways intertwine, they will all be able to use the barn for various lessons. 'The board of education would like to thank all the sponsors and donors who made this building possible,' said superintendent Dr. Michael Duncan. 'This is a great example of what a true public-private partnership can accomplish. On behalf of our students we are truly thankful.'

The Everglades' Boundary of 1910, and Today's Toxic Lake Okeechobee, SLR/IRL
Historic map, Palm Beach Farms Company Lands ca. 1910 showing "edge of Everglades." Archives, Lawrence E. Will Museum of the Glades, Belle Glade, Fl.
Looking back gives us perspective when looking forward.
This old map showing the Palm Beach Farms Company Lands is interesting as is shows where people saw the "edge of the Everglades" when they were first developing around 1910.
Today it is hard to judge where we are and what "was" the Everglades…Some of us are literally "in it."
Looking back, it is easy to see how after over 100 years the waters of Lake Okeechobee are becoming more and more "toxic." Kind of like a fish tank that can never be cleaned out….
One has wonder if the developers of the Everglades ever considered what would happen to the lake by building and developing farm lands right in the way of the natural flow, and then really blocking it by eventually putting a dike around the lake? In this map, the push was to develop lands further west beyond the eastern ridge…Think all all the development today out west beyond the ridge and into the historic Everglades!
Perhaps in their wildest dreams the early developers would have never envisioned how many people live in south Florida today. Maybe they didn't care. In any case, today we all here in South Florida are connected somehow to Lake Okeechobee, Florida's "liquid heart," for drinking water, recharge, recreation, property values, and our health.
Over our history the human spirit has overcome greater threats than toxic algae; I am confident we will once again.

Remembering Lake Okeechobee's Moonflower This Easter, SLR/IRL
Florida map 1500s
Moon flower, public image
Florida translates to "Flowery Easter" and was christened such by Ponce de Leon in 1513. Yes, we were a "land of flowers!"
Everglades Wildflowers: http://www.wildflowersearch.com/search?oldstate=gmc%3A25.32%2C-80.93%3Bgms%3A12%3Blocation%3AEverglades%3Belev%3A1%3Btitle%3AEverglades%20Wildflowers%3B
The wildflower I would like to remember in "all its glory" this Easter is the moonflower whose sweet fragrance used to fill Lake Okeechobee's shores.
David Troxtell of the Marie Selby Botanical Garden in Sarasota writes:
"Not too long ago, Florida's giant Lake Okeechobee would fill with rainwater and flood its southern banks every year during the wet season. The water's slow journey through the Everglades' 100-mile long "river of grass" and out to Florida Bay and the Gulf of Mexico would take months.
At the very beginning of this journey would have been a floodplain covered in a massive pond apple forest, completely blanketed in moonvine. Pond apple is a native tree which grows in regularly flooded areas, and is a preferred host for the moonvine. It has also become a rare sight in the state outside of the Everglades due to development, mostly agriculture.
The massive forest of moonvine and pond apples covering 32,000 acres along the southern edge of Lake Okeechobee was destroyed in less than a decade…" (http://selby.org/moonvine-morning-glory-family/)
What is exciting is that there is a resurgence of interest in reestablishing the pond apple also known as the custard apple which would inadvertently include the moonflower. The Art Marshall Foundation worked on such, but many were destroyed in the hurricanes of 2004 and 2005. Sarah Brown, a local South Florida photographer, has a show presently at the Lawrence E. Will Museum of the Glades. Many of her photographs feature the few remaining custard apple trees and moonvines. Zachariah Cosner, a student at University of Miami, is writing a book on the subject and I will be featuring his work more in the coming months.
So on this sacred Easter, remember, there is hope of recovering some of Florida's wildflowers for which we are named. May we once again be Florida, "land of flowers."

Lake Okeechobee 1874,1974, 2074? SRL/IRL
Map from Frederick Ober's 1874 expedition.
(For even more insight watch this Time Flight Video by Todd Thurlow, https://youtu.be/sJkMOIqjr_I?t=1m7s "South Bay and Lake Okeechobee")
Today we continue looking at parts of a 1974 text entitled: "Environments of South Florida, Present and Past," by Patrick J. Gleason, lent to me by Dr Gary Goforth.
Today's map of study was created by Frederick A. Ober.
Fred Ober was a man who once ran a shoe shop, but one day, with a dream in mind, literally "threw off his shoes." He decided to go on an adventure and make something more exciting of his life. In 1974 he visited and documented our Lake Okeechobee and surrounding Everglades.
Our text ironically, looks at Lake Okeechobee 100 years after his visit–published in 1974.
To look at the map and see such notes as "commencement of cypress belt with sandy shore" along the east side; "custard apples, and marshy lands, —-sand beach on the south side"; and "palmetto ridge and Kissimmee Prairie in the north," really take one to another world.
—A world that basically does not exist anymore.
We scraped it clean. We rearranged it. We built it out. We drained it. We diked it. We planted seed. We erected houses. Maybe one day the young people will try to put some of it back. It must have been spectacular.
What will it look like in another 100 years? Will today's Google map below appear as obsolete as Ober's? What do you think? Is there a way to go back? Envision 2074.

Cane Slough? Maidencane not Sugarcane! St Lucie River/Indian River Lagoon
The J.J. Pichford Family camping at Cane Slough ca. 1918. (Archives, historian, Sandra Thurlow.)

Google Map image includes much of what was "Cane Slough" in the historic map.
In these parts" it's very important to know the definition of "cane!"
Yesterday's blog referred to "Cane Slough"on the historic 1909 map by the Army Corp of Engineers. I made a joke about "cane" not meaning "sugarcane" as one may first think when hearing the word "cane" today. After publishing the post, I learned even more about "cane" from a long time family friend and wanted to share this with you today.
Fred Taylor informed me that "cane" is referring to "maidencane," and that there are still places where maidencane grows today, it is great for wildlife and also the cows eat it. I think I had thought that MAIDENCANE was a hard-rock band…According to the Florida Wildlife Commission:
Maidencane: This vaulable and common native can form large stands in the water or even on dry banks. It may be confused with torpedo grass, para grass, cupscale grass or blue maidencane. It provides food, protection and nesting materials for wildlife.
Maidencane is a grass. rhizomes extensive; stems to 6 ft. long, narrow, leaning or erect; leaf blades flat or folded, wide, to 1 in. wide, to 12 in. long, tips pointed, usually smooth; sheaths loose, hairless to hairy; inflorescence erect, narrow, spike-like, closed, 4-12 in. long, ascending branches pressed to main axis; spikelets stalked, flowers to 1/8 in. long, green, pressed against branches. ( FWC:http://plants.ifas.ufl.edu/node/306)
Who is the woman with the rifle in the classic historic photo above? She is Mrs J.J. Pichford.
Mrs J. J. Pichford has just shot a wild turkey for dinner. She is camping at "Cane Slough" around 1918. Her young son nearby, they stand in what is a now developed portion of our St Lucie/Martin County region.
On the back of the photo, my mother wrote: Wagon Wheel Hammock–Would travel by wagon through White City to the back country where there were no roads. Young Robert would always fear his family would get lost in the wilderness…
Well that wilderness is gone today, and my husband Ed is lucky if I've had time to stop by Publix! Times have changed as has our treasured St Lucie River/Indian River Lagoon Region, but apparently there is still some maidencane left if you know where to look. 🙂

Can highly recommend Caithness Rugby Club if you are looking for a real xmas tree this year. Ordered it last night and today i had a gorgeous 7ft tree delivered to the door for £17. It has lovely big needles and even came complete with pine cones. The guys who delivered it couldn't have been nicer!
Nipped up to Castletown Garden Centre and managed to get a stand for it as Homebase only had small ones left. Can highly recommend them too!

Have to agree! I am delighted with my tree, best Ive had for years.
Have had two trees from the rugby club with no problems and the plus is that they deliver this year however kids were gurning at me at 4 PM yesterday about wanting the tree up so we went down to Temptations toy shop , Thurso .got one just over 6ft ,nice and green with no falling needles for the bargain price of £12 only downfall is that i had to take it home myself but luckily had no probs squezzing it in the Galaxy :lol: now have four happy kids.
Did notice out in wick that they were selling them in hombase and would bag them then and there for you which would be easier to take home .

Follia (Asylum) è un film del 2005 diretto da David Mackenzie.

Il soggetto è tratto dal romanzo omonimo di Patrick McGrath.

Trama
Stella Raphael abita nei sobborghi di Londra, nei pressi del maniconio dove il marito psichiatra lavora sotto la direzione dell'inquietante e manipolatore Dr. Cleave. Tra i pazienti dell'Istituto di massima sicurezza, c'è l'artista Edgar Stark, sotto cura per aver massacrato la moglie durante un raptus di gelosia.

Stella è una donna inquieta ed insoddisfatta e trascina la sua vita tra la compagnia del figlio Charlie e l'assenza cronica di un marito sempre al lavoro. S'innamora in un crescendo inarrestabile del pericoloso paziente.

Ma la tresca viene scoperta, lo scandalo è inarrestabile. Il conformismo del marito gli impone di salvare le apparenze perdonando la moglie, ma lei rifiuta il compromesso e va a vivere con Edgar che nel frattempo è fuggito dal manicomio.
E, pian piano, la patologica gelosia di Stark riaffiora, la follia si riaccende nei suoi occhi. Stella ha paura, ma "la passione è uno sport troppo rischioso" -come dice il dr. Cleave-.
Successivamente Stark viene trovato e arrestato, mentre lei viene ricondotta dal marito.

Ben presto però in Stella si palesano segni di squilibrio, tanto che quando il figlio annega sotto i suoi occhi nelle acque di un lago, durante una gita scolastica, Stella rimane del tutto inerte. Viene quindi rinchiusa nello stesso maniconio dell'amante, mentre il marito rinuncia a ogni rapporto con lei. Al manicomio il dottor Cleave, ora suo medico curante, la sostiene nel suo percorso di guarigione, fino ad offrirsi di sposarla e assisterla per il suo reinserimento sociale. Stella mostra di accogliere la proposta.
Ma per i pazienti è la volta di un nuovo ballo: Stella e Edgar desiderano entrambi il prossimo incontro; ma il dr. Cleave impedisce a Stark di partecipare, dicendo che Stella rifiuta di vederlo. Edgar piange rinchiuso in isolamento. Dopo il ballo, Stella si lancia dal tetto del manicomio, morendo pochi istanti dopo aver toccato terra. Il Dr. Cleave chiude il fascicolo della donna come se nulla fosse, con aria di sufficienza e forse di soddisfazione per aver impedito ai due amanti di poter avere una seconda possibilità.
