Nobel and Pulitzer Prize-winning novelist and essayist, Toni Morrison, was one of the world's most prolific writers. The inspirational essayist is best known for her novels The Bluest Eye and Beloved, and has timeless influence through her motivational quotes. We have listed a handful of the best Toni Morrison quotes for those of you who have yet to discover her moving work. Even if you are already a fan of her work, we think you'll appreciate her thought-provoking quotes.
Morrison, from the first-edition back cover of her debut novel, The Bluest Eye (1970)
Who is Toni Morrison?
Before we dive in, let's briefly give some context and background to who Toni Morrison really was. She was born Chloe Ardelia Wofford in Ohio in 1931. Like many black women and men during that time in America, she was surrounded by the institutions of Jim Crow laws and racism. However, Morrison's parents had established an important sense of heritage and language in their daughter through songs and stories.
She went to and graduated from Howard University in DC and then went on to study at Cornell University where she got her Masters of Arts. She then taught English as a professor for a while after that while raising two children as a single mother. It was at age 39, a few years after, she began writing her breakthrough fiction novel, The Bluest Eye.
Then she wrote Beloved, Jazz, and Paradise which is looked at as the iconic trilogy of Toni Morrison books. Beloved was adapted into a screenplay starring Danny Glover and Oprah Winfrey and the rest was history. Morrison's written work not only made her one of the more recognized black female authors of her day, but one of the more famous female authors of all time! Before finishing up Paradise, she was honored with the Nobel Prize in Literature in '93.
Toni Morrison, lecture at West Point Military Academy in March, 2013.
She received the President's Medal of Freedom in 2016 from Barack Obama. In 2019, she passed away at the age of 88.
Toni Morrison's most famous quote that stuck with the world might be one that is directed straight to writers:
"If there's a book that you want to read, but it hasn't been written yet, then you must write it." – Toni Morrison
As one of the best Toni Morisson quotes, it can inspire any creative – not just writers. If there is a song in your head that you wish to hear, but it hasn't been written yet. If there's a film plot that you wish someone would create, but no one has created it yet. You must create it. This is one of the more motivational quotes as it is very simple, yet emphatically demanding of one's initiative.
9 more inspiring Toni Morrison quotes
1. "The function of freedom is to free someone else."
2. "You are your best thing."
3. "Love is divine only and difficult always. If you think it is easy you are a fool. If you think it is natural you are blind."
4. "Love is or it ain't. Thin love ain't love at all."
5. "Freeing yourself was one thing, claiming ownership of that freed self was another."
This here quote is one of Toni Morrison's most quoted lines from her novel, Beloved, distinguishing freedom and ownership.
6. "At some point in life, the world's beauty becomes enough. You don't need to photograph, paint, or even remember it. It is enough."
7. "All water has a perfect memory and is forever trying to get back to where it was."
8. "In this country, American means white. Everybody else has to hyphenate."
Toni Morrison was absolutely one to not shy away from the subject of racism. Many of her novels spoke to black experiences and black plights. This quote explains her thoughts on 'whiteness' being America's clean slate, blank canvas. To Toni, all other kinds of American people were asterisks – not considered the true American standard.
9. "We die. That may be the meaning of life. But we do language. That may be the measure of our lives."
This is one of the best Toni Morrison quotes for ultimate life purpose. We all are here to live and to die, but language is a means to live with connection. How can we live on this round planet together? How can we communicate with each other? In what ways do we connect to each other. That may be the measure of our lives.
If you're an aspiring author or poet, take a look at the work of Toni Morrison. Read some of the fan favorites. And whether or not you're a writer, take a moment every once in a while and return to these 10 Toni Morrison quotes for motivation and inspirational reminders.

Students prepare to showcase their STEM skills at the first ever virtual BT Young Scientist & Technology Exhibition
Exhibition will be held online from Wednesday 6th – Friday 8th January 2021.
President Michael D. Higgins to officially open the exhibition on Wednesday.
Taoiseach Micheál Martin delivers a virtual good luck message to all participants.
Dublin, Tuesday 5th January 2021: Over 1,000 students from across the island of Ireland will take part in the first ever virtual BT Young Scientist & Technology Exhibition (BTYSTE) as it launches online tomorrow at 8am. It is the 57th BT Young Scientist & Technology Exhibition and the first to ever take place virtually. The exhibition will bring together some of the country's brightest young STEM minds as they compete to take home the coveted title of the BT Young Scientist & Technologist(s) of the Year 2021. Free registration is open now at https://portal.btyoungscientist.com/
President Michael D. Higgins will officially open the BT Young Scientist & Technology Exhibition at a special online ceremony tomorrow, Wednesday 6th January. President Higgins is a great supporter of the exhibition, praising it for its ability to provide a platform for young people to showcase their talents, and saying it is "at the pinnacle of scientific achievement and discovery amongst young people worldwide."
The opening ceremony will be available to view from 1pm on Wednesday on the BTYSTE portal and Facebook and will be recorded and streamed from the Mansion House in Dublin, the location of the first ever BTYSTE in 1965.
At the heart of the exhibition are over 1,000 students representing over 200 schools from across the island of Ireland. This year's projects cover a wide variety of topics, from COVID-19, the prevalence of social media and technology in our daily lives, ethnicity, gender studies, sports science, climate change, agricultural science, nutrition, solar power and biological diversity. Judging begins tomorrow morning and each project will be judged a minimum of three times, with over 80 judges volunteering their time to take part.
This year's winner(s) of the BT Young Scientist & Technology Exhibition, will be announced online at 1pm Friday 8th January, and will be presented with a cheque for €7,500 and the newly designed BTYSTE perpetual trophy. In all, there are over 200 prizes for individuals, groups, and teachers.
During the three-day exhibition, the public can enjoy some very special interviews, discussions and shows including: Professor Luke O'Neill on making vaccines in a global pandemic; The Climate Emergency; How to Become an Astronaut; and 'Our Amazing Universe: A journey of discovery'. In addition, teachers will have access to a myriad of workshops at a new dedicated Teachers' Area.
Delivering a good luck message to everyone taking part in this year's virtual exhibition Taoiseach Micheál Martin said, "I'm delighted the BT Young Scientist & Technology Exhibition is going ahead this year, and I want to congratulate BT and the Young Scientist Board who've pulled it together despite all of the obstacles.
Over the past year, we've seen how important science and technology are to solving our global problems, enhancing our living conditions, and helping us to adapt more rapidly to crises. The strength of our scientific community has developed new vaccines and given us new treatments for Covid-19. It is through technology we have been able to bridge the social distance we've been faced with.
While the exhibition will be different this year, the platform it provides to students to showcase their ideas continues to be of great importance. The diversity of the entries shows that our vision for STEM education is being realised in schools across the country, hugely helped by events such as this. It fills me with immense pride and hope to see the ideas of bright, innovative and creative minds, and I wish all participants, and those supporting them on their journey, every success in the future."
Leading communications and IT services company, BT, in their 212t year as organiser of the exhibition, is set to deliver another brilliant event for competitors and the visiting public.
Shay Walsh, Managing Director, BT Ireland said: "I am excited to welcome the next wave of future scientists and entrepreneurs to the virtual 57th BT Young Scientist & Technology Exhibition. Over the next few days, we'll be speaking to all our participants in a virtual setting and providing them with a great line-up of educational events and entertainment. They will get the chance to showcase their projects to some of Ireland's most accomplished scientists and technologists, who are part of our judging panel.
"Since its inception in 1965, we estimate over three quarters of a million people have visited the BT Young Scientist & Technology Exhibition. This figure highlights just how fascinated people are with the endless possibilities of science and technology. Moving the event to an online setting this year allows us to open our doors to both national and international audiences, free of charge. BT Ireland is very proud to organise the exhibition for the past 21 years – providing so many bright students with a platform to pursue their interests in science and technology. We wish all participating students the best of luck this week."
BT will host a number of fringe events in 2021 including the Connecting Women in Technology (CWIT) TechStarter event where attendees can hear from a panel of change makers in the field of innovation and technology. BT Nextipedia, the business innovation symposium, will feature Aron Ralston, whose harrowing experience trapped in a southeast Utah canyon was made into the 2010 movie '127 Hours', a true-life story of innovating during a crisis.

Pediatrics 2000, in conjunction with Martinez Gallery, has designed and is implementing an art-based model for community medicine. Our purpose is to fully integrate art into pediatric practice as a means to more effectively communicate health literacy and encourage healthy living. Beginning in a traditionally underserved Manhattan ethnic and immigrant community, we provide coordinated arts and medical services. By rechanneling the work of graffiti artists onto constructive surfaces, we develop programs and materials targeted at the real-life challenges confronting at-risk urban youth and families, with a focus on children and adolescent health and social concerns.
Tackling established concerns in pediatric care, we seek to combat fundamental health threats with methods beyond the proscriptions of responsive medical procedures. It is widely acknowledged that today's "millennial morbidities" — infant mortality; childhood obesity; academic failure; domestic violence; intentional injuries; high rates of teen pregnancy and sexually transmitted infections — are best addressed through long-term healing and educational efforts. The clinic will draw on art and art processes to acknowledge varieties of individual learning styles while also building upon the shared context of community culture.
Key to this effort will be a continuing dialogue to maintain, refine and deploy adaptive strategies. Medical staff, artists, graphic designers, architects, museum educators and others will collaborate in the development of interior spaces, exhibitions, programs and publications that enhance and imprint the "teachable moments" that may occur before, during and after clinic visits. This interactive environment will reiterate and support messages conveyed in the interpersonal interactions of medical staff and patients, allowing more holistic opportunities for cognition and understanding. By acknowledging that good health practices are learned only when fully comprehended, this endeavor will hopefully develop as a national prototype for urban pediatric and family medical practices.
Our Mission at Pediatrics 2000 is to provide quality care, fostering the highest standards of compassionate and culturally sensitive patient care.
Our core values are:
Place the needs of our patients first
Treat each person with dignity, courtesy, compassion and respect
Strive to improve our skills and increase our knowledge
Seek to reflect the diversity of the people we serve
Recruit and retain the highest quality staff
Recognize and integrate the interest and concerns of the communities we serve
Recognize the value and sincerity of each employee's efforts and contributions
Encourage and support creative problem-solving focusing on results
Make decisions using evidence-based medicine to maintain the best clinical practice
Encourage teamwork between the clinic and the community
Successful implementation of Patient Centered Medical Home (PCMH)

My list of authors I would love to meet is long. I'm super shy but maybe one day I'll have the chance to meet them all.
Alyssa made my list too!!! I would love to meet her! I just love her paranormal books! They are incredible! It's weird that I am also realllllly shy, but when around other book people I warm up a lot quicker than around "regular" people! Lol.
I need to read the Maggie Stiefvater books that I won because I am sure she would be on my list too!

India to upgrade railway network
India and Sri Lanka on Tuesday discussed various issues regarding overall development of railway network including upgradation of signalling and telecommunication system in the island nation.
Minister of State for Railways Manoj Sinha and Sri Lanka's Minister of Development Strategies and International Trade Malik Samarawickrama discussed a range of issues regarding the development of railway network.
India has been extending concessional Line of Credit (LoC) to Sri Lanka to support various projects in the infrastructure sector including Railways. Till date, more than USD 1 billion of LoC has been extended to Sri Lanka for various railway projects.
During Prime Minister Narendra Modi's visit to Colombo in March 2015, a fresh Line of Credit of US $ 318 million for railway sector projects was announced.
"Sri Lanka has proposed to use the fresh LoC for purchase of six diesel multiple units (DMU), each with two power cars and 12 coaches (US $ 106 million) 160 passenger coaches (US $ 62 million) and track materials to rehabilitate around 150 km of Railway track (US $ 150 million)," said an official statement.

It's time once again to haul out those hoary old "I'll be baaack" references. Less than two months after announcing that he was putting all of his Hollywood projects on hold as he weathered the scandal surrounding revelations he had fathered a child with his housekeeper, Arnold Schwarzenegger is evidently ready to get back in the saddle — with a Western, no less. EW has confirmed that, as first reported by Deadline, the former California governor is moving ahead with a long-gestating project called The Last Stand, in which he will star as a small-town border sheriff battling a Mexican drug cartel. The film, which will mark the English-language debut of Korean director Jee-woon Kim (The Good, The Bad, The Weird), is set to begin production in September and will hit theaters next year. Schwarzenegger is also attached to play a horse trainer in the drama Cry Macho and has held discussions with director Justin Lin (Fast Five) about a potential fifth installment in the Terminator franchise, but those projects will move to the back burner behind The Last Stand.
In charting his post-political return to acting, Schwarzenegger, who will turn 64 later this month, has cited Clint Eastwood's career as a model, and The Last Stand certainly sounds on the surface like it could have come out of the Eastwood playbook. But whether audiences are ready to welcome the one-time action icon back to the big screen in the wake of his personal scandal — and, for that matter, whether he can convincingly take on the Western genre, which might not seem quite as natural a fit for Schwarzenegger as playing, say, a killer cyborg from the future — remains to be seen.


Imagine a science teacher searching the web to find reliably sourced videos to make learning engaging and fun. After hours of searching, she finds one decent video that actually says what she wants it to, only to find a rather inappropriate video advertised on the side?
Schools often face massive workloads – there is always something that needs to be prepared or improved upon; especially in science where the teachers have a lot of experiments to prepare and ensure that they work successfully.
'With Twig we have an easy search engine and related videos that are proposed to extend the topic. The videos are short and engaging for the students. They always look forward to them as the music, sound, and visuals are dynamic. They also know that they will be short, so they give them their full attention. Recently, I viewed a Twig Science Experiment with my class. They enjoyed it and I found it to be very comprehensive.
Karen uses Twig as a starter to a topic or as a follow-up to reinforce the lesson. She also uses Twig for handouts to create a lesson where students can annotate the drawings.
And Karen's students love Twig. She says, 'Those who use Twig for revision are greatly helped by having professional delivery and dynamic visualisations. Students are able to put into context difficult concepts especially with subjects like Chemistry, where many of the concepts are abstract, so to be able to see an animation of the atom or states of matter, really helps them put a concrete face on the material.
This is the school's fourth year using Twig. According to Karen the teachers who use it, request it. Everybody is always willing to use part of their budget towards it. In addition, when I looked at the usage we accessed Twig 1000 times over the year in Math and Science alone.
Well, what can we say? We'll just have to let our subscribers do the talking, won't we?
Merci Beaucoup for the feedback, Karen.

After sorting through all the heartbreaking entries we received for our Romantic Rendezvous Giveaway, we've rounded up the Top 5 Worst Valentine's Day stories from our listeners. Some were very sad and some were tragically funny, but all were examples of things going terribly wrong on what should be a fun and romantic day.
You can help make this year's Valentine's Day the great day it should be for one worthy winner and five runner-ups. Check out the top stories we received this year and vote for the one that tugs most at your heart.
Papa John's will also give one large heart-shaped pizza to five runner-ups.
Entry 1: I was new to Fort Hood and was in charge of training for the Brigade. So, I was making my rounds on post letting all of the training facilities know who I was. One guy was a little too friendly, but I didn't think anything of it. Later that night, he showed up at my house with 2 dozen yellow roses, chocolate, and a teddy bear. I never gave this guy my number or street address. It was really creepy. I asked him to leave and went to his work the next day to let him know that will never happen again. I also explained to him that women do not like that and how creepy it was. I hope I helped him.
Entry 2: It was our first Valentines Day being married. I went to Cindie's (woot woot) and got an outfit, cooked dinner had it in the oven. He was getting off work, so I had the shower going with candles and I was already in the outfit I bought! I waited and waited...and ended up falling asleep on the bed. I woke up and heard him talking, so I put a robe on and walked into the kitchen. He and a co-worker were at the table eating our food!!! He had forgotten it was Valentine's Day and was like, "We're married now. We don't celebrate that s**t no more, do we?"
Entry 3: Oh. Here we go guys. One year my ex and I went to dinner. We get to the restaurant and our reservations had been made for a different location. We ended up drinking coffee at Starbucks. I was dressed in a gorgeous dress and heels and it was pouring rain and muddy. On the way home, our tire blew. Come to find out my "manly" boyfriend didn't know how to change a tire. Yup. So I did it. On my knees. In the mud. In my pretty dress and heels. I am woman. Hear me roar. At this point, we weren't speaking. But that's not all. We get to the house and there is a card on the door saying "Thank You". I get it before he does, and it is thanking him for the bear and chocolates 'cause he wouldn't answer his phone. Apparently he had another valentine as well. After 2 yrs together. M-hmm. As you can guess we didn't last any longer. Happy freaking Valentines Day. Thankfully, I've found an amazing man who knows how to change tires.
Entry 4: Had told my girlfriend that I don't know if I can do anything big because I'd have to work late; but, in reality, I had everything planned out. Dinner, flowers, candy, etc. So when the time comes to drop in early with the surprise, I show up to my girlfriend's apartment and knock on the door. She opens the door bewildered to see me and seems very flustered. You guessed it: there was another guy over there, eating the chocolates that I sent her in her bed, under the covers. I hate Valentine's Day.
Entry 5: Let me start by saying I hate Valentine's Day, not because I am single or because I am lonely , but because I lost my grandmother on Valentine's Day . I was married at the time and my husband and I were going to dinner with my sister and her husband. It was a normal day, and I never expected what was to come. We lived in Baltimore, Md at the time and were going to dinner at the harbor . My sister and her husband meet us at my house with flowers because they knew my husband well and knew he hadn't given me anything , which was sweet of them. So we went to dinner. It was a very nice seafood place, but during dinner I received a phone call informing me that my grandmother had suffered a heart attack and was rushed to the ER . We quickly left and had not finished our meal. The whole family spent Valentine's Day waiting patiently for news on my grandmother. She'd suffered a massive heart attack and they were unable to save her. I remember them letting us in to see her and spend a few moments with her. She looked so peaceful and my heart was broken in two. So, for me and my family, Valentine's Day will never be the same.
The votes are in and the poll is closed. We'll announce our big winner tomorrow! Thanks for voting and happy Valentine's Day!

Symposium Failure, and a Career That is Anything But: An LMD Symposium Honoring J. Wayne Jones
Sponsorship TMS Light Metals Division
TMS: Magnesium Committee
Organizer(s) Victoria M. Miller, University of Florida
Michael J. Caton, US Air Force Research Laboratory
Nikhilesh Chawla, Purdue University
Trevor S. Harding, California Polytechnic State University
Paul E. Krajewski, General Motors Corporation
Tresa M. Pollock, University of California, Santa Barbara
Scope To study materials performance is to push materials to their limits—in creep, in fatigue, and in other demanding environmental conditions. It is to push materials to failure, then to engineer against those failure mechanisms. Over the course of Professor J. Wayne Jones' career, he advanced the state of the art in the study of failure both for creep and fatigue. In the realm of fatigue, he is one of the pioneers of ultrasonic fatigue testing, demonstrating the existence of a fatigue limit for fcc metals in the ultra-high cycle regime. He has worked on a wide range of materials, from light alloys such as magnesium and aluminum to heavier alloys such as nickel superalloys, to less traditional materials such as metal matrix composites and intermetallics.
Later in his career, Professor Jones partnered with the Detroit automotive industry and Thixomat, studying both creep and fatigue in lightweight magnesium alloys. He also worked with the automotive industry to develop lightweight metal matrix composites with high strength and high stiffness. He sought new probabilistic treatments for microstructurally informed fatigue crack nucleation models which could lead to improved lifing predictions.

Differentiated book- It has a historical context with research of the timeClassic of English literature of the 19th century. It deals in parallel with the realities of England and a revolutionary France. It is located between two cities: London and Paris, at the dawn of the French Revolution. The first city symbolizes peace, the second agitation, challenge and chaos.Violent scenes of masses, outbursts of hunger and revenge, spies and conspirators, failed heroes and regretful heroes mingle in an artistic and perfect plot, full of surprises and masterfully crafted by a Dickens in one of his best creative moments.Taking the French revolution as a point of reference, it shows the social and political problems of England. In the contrast of these two cities presented, England presents itself as the insured future, while France becomes more and more dangerous as the novel progresses. The acts of violence carried out by the French people are among the most memorable scenes in the book.

It depicts the plight of the French proletariat under the brutal oppression of the French aristocracy in the years leading up to the revolution, and the corresponding savage brutality demonstrated by the revolutionaries toward the former aristocrats in the early years of the revolution. It follows the lives of several protagonists through these events, most notably Charles Darnay, a French once-aristocrat who falls victim to the indiscriminate wrath of the revolution despite his virtuous nature, and Sydney Carton, a dissipated English barrister who endeavours to redeem his ill-spent life out of love for Darnay's wife, Lucie Manette.

Format: PDF, Kindle
It is 1775, and Mr. Jarvis Lorry is traveling to Dover to meet Lucie Manette. He tells her that she is not an orphan as she had been told from a young age. He now says that he will travel with her to Paris to meet her father, who has recently been released from the Bastille. Doctor Manette is housed in the Defarges' wine-shop and has lost his reason, but he starts to regain it when he meets his daughter and is transported back to London. Five years later, Charles Darnay is tried in London on a charge of treason for providing English secrets to the French and Americans during the outbreak of the American Revolution. The dramatic appearance of Mr. Sydney Carton, who looks remarkably like him, precludes any positive identification and allows Darnay's acquittal. Darnay, Mr. Carton, and Mr. Stryver all fall in love with Lucie Manette, who was a tearful, unwilling witness for the prosecution. Although they all make an attempt to woo her, she favors Charles Darnay and marries him. Carton comes to her house alone and declares that while he expects no return of his love, he would do anything for her or for anyone whom she loves. Darnay has ominously hinted to Doctor Manette of his concealed identity, and he reveals to his father-in-law on the morning of his wedding that he is a French nobleman who has renounced his title. In France, Darnay's uncle, Monseigneur, has been murdered in his bed for crimes against the French people. This means that Darnay is next in line to inherit the aristocratic title, but he tells no one but Doctor Manette. At the urgent request of Monsieur Gabelle, who has been arbitrarily imprisoned, Darnay returns to Paris. He is arrested as a nobleman and an emigrant and thrown into jail.
A Tale Of Two Cities The Annotated
It's 1775. Trouble is a-brewin' in the French countryside. Apparently, the folks out there don't like to be starved and taxed to death. Who'd have guessed it, eh?As our novel starts, a very businessman-like British gentleman makes his way into the heart of Paris. He's on a very unsettling mission. In fact, it's almost enough to make a businessman cry. You see, eighteen years ago, a French doctor was imprisoned without any warning (or any trial). He's been locked up in the worst prison of all prisons, the Bastille. After almost two decades, he was released--again without any explanation--and he's currently staying with an old servant of his, Ernst Defarge. Today, Mr. Lorry (he's our British businessman) is on a mission to take the French doctor back to England, where he can live in peace with his daughter.Dr. Manette may be free, but he's still a broken man. He spends most of his time cobbling shoes and pacing up and down in his dark room. Too accustomed to the space of a prison to understand that he can actually leave his room, Dr. Manette seems doomed to live a pitiful life.Fortunately for Dr. Manette (and for Mr. Lorry, now that we think about it), he happens to have the World's Most Perfect Daughter. Lucie, the child he left eighteen years ago, has grown up and is a smiling, blond, perfect ray of sunshine. Everything she touches seems to turn to gold. Vomit if you'd like, but Lucie is indeed perfect. And she'll need every ounce of that perfection to restore her father back to health.Of course, she does manage to bring Dr. Manette back into the everyday world. We never doubted her for a second. Within the space of five years (that's 1780, for those of you who are counting), Dr. Manette is a new man. He's a practicing doctor again; he and Lucie live in a small house in Soho. They don't have much money (Dr. Manette's cash was all seized in France), but Lucie manages to shine her rays of wonderfulness over their lives. In other words, they're pretty happy. And they've adopted Mr. Lorry as a sort of drop-in uncle.As we pick up the story in 1780, Dr. Manette and Lucie have been called as witnesses in a treason case. Apparently, a young man named Charles Darnay is accused of providing classified information to the French government. English trials at the time resembled smoke-and-mirror tricks, and Dickens takes great delight in mocking the "esteemed" members of the court. Thanks to Lucie's compassionate testimony and some quick work by a man who looks strangely like Charles Darnay, however, our man Darnay is off the hook.A free man, Darnay immediately realizes just how perfect our perfect Lucie actually is. He sets up shop in the Manette house, coming to visit almost every day. The Darnay look-alike, a disreputable (but, let's face it, really likable) guy called Sydney Carton, also takes a liking to Lucie. If Darnay is shiny and good and perfect, Carton is...not any of those things. He also likes to beat himself up a lot. (In fact, we're thinking that he could really use one of those twelve-step esteem-boosting programs.)Carton loves Lucie with all his heart, but he's convinced that he could never deserve her. What does he do? Well, he tells her precisely why she could never love him. Surprise, surprise: she agrees. She'd like to help him be a better person, but he would rather wallow in his misery. After all, wallowing sounds like so much fun, doesn't it? Wallow, wallow, wallow. That's Carton in a nutshell.Darnay, meanwhile, fares a little bit better: he marries Lucie. On the day of his wedding, he tells Dr. Manette a secret: he's actually a French nobleman in disguise. A very particular French nobleman, as a matter of fact: the Marquis Evrémonde.

Millions of soccer fans will be losing a lot of sleep this month, and Swedish sociologists fear families may be split up.
But the Soviet Union, eager to avoid production line problems, has decided that Russians must go to bed in good time and not be tempt ed to sit up late.
The problems arise out of the massive television cover age of the World Cup soccer tournament in Mexico City as it is relayed by satellite to viewers around the world.
In Britain, a television audience estimated at 25 mil lion—almost half the popula tion—watched the opening game of the series between Mexico and the Soviet Union last Sunday.
Because of the time differ ential, most games played in Mexico come at a time when Europe is normally sleeping and Asians are going about their business the following morning.
Several of the bigger and wealthier soccer‐loving na tions are putting on regular live coverage by satellite un til the early hours of the morning.
The two competing British television systems, the Brit ish Broadcasting Corpora tion and independent televi sion, are devoting a total of about 70 hours of viewing time each to the World Cup until the final on June 21. Many of the games seen live will run until 3 A.M.
In Italy, one of the most soccer‐conscious nations of Europe, the television service is scheduling 60 hours of World Cup coverage—with 11 matches televised late at night.
French state television has scheduled 18 World Cup matches, 11 of them tele vised live, Reuters reported yesterday.
Norwegian travel agents say people are postponing vacations in mountain and seaside huts, where there are no television sets, until after the World Cup final.
But the high cost of live coverage has caused many countries to rely heavily on videotape recordings, flown to them from Mexico after each big game.
In Sweden, where the exist ing television system offers 43 hours of World Cup view ing, a second channel is just being opened, providing al ternative programs.
Swedish sociologists are predicting hundreds of split homes—many permanently— through husband and wife clashes over which program to watch.
Mexico offers all‐out tele vision coverage of the Cup competition — and there is substantial coverage in Bra zil, Colombia, Uruguay, Chile and other Latin American nations.
Emilio Garrastazu Medici, the Brazilian President, has ordered that official pro grams on the radio should be put back so as not to intefere with the soccer re ports.
Moscow—Soviet television offers 30 hours of World Cup soccer during the next three weeks, either live in the late evening or recorded and shown the next day. Cup matches which go on into the early hours are not be ing shown live.
Western Europe — Outside France, Italy and Sweden, the general average is 30 to 40 hours of World Cup view ing, although Belgium has 43.
Some countries such as Austria are ending coverage at 1:30 A.M., local time, and care is being taken not to disrupt popular television serials.
In Switzerland, some games are being broadcast live late in the evening, others are be ing recorded and broadcast in the early evenings or at lunchtime. Television broad casters have been apologizing for disruption of regular pro grams.
Eastern Europe—About 30 hours of live coverage. In Czechoslovakia, it is supple mented by substantial re corded coverage. In Poland, up to 10 minutes daily of film tapes are shown during regular news bulletins. Tele vision officials say full match transmissions would be too expensive.
North America—World Cup matches are not being shown on regular commercial tele vision programs. Twelve cities in the United States and three in Canada will show Cup matches on closed‐circuit tel evision, charging admission fees, in special auditoriums.
Hong Kong—The British colony's television system is broadcasting all World Cup matches three days late. A spokesman said live coverage was too expensive and that sponsors could not be found.
Chile‐64 to 70 hours of coverage by three television channels.
Colombia — Sunday games will interrupt some children's programs. But even the chil dren in Colombia would rath er watch soccer.

Hybridity, natural history, illusion, modernism and the supernatural are reflected concerns that link the works selected for this exhibition. The four artists attempt to shift historical meanings through physical and conceptual constructs.
Ruth Claxton's work focuses on the deconstruction of existing imagery and the ideas or belief inherent in their original construction. She uses China figurines which are wittily and insolently altered and integrated into complex sculptural installations acting as constructed landscapes.
She trained at Nottingham Trent University and the Royal College of Art (MA Sculpture). Her recent exhibitions include: in 2006, The Collective, Edinburgh and Arquebuse Gallery, Geneva; East International, Norwich, 2003. In 2008 she will have a solo show at the Ikon Gallery, Birmingham and then in 2009 at Spike Island, Bristol.
Marie-France & Patricia Martin's video projection Du noir dans le vert presents, in an idyllic landscape (Swiss mountains, Flemish light), two characters - woodchoppers, criminals, amateur ornithologists, clones - gesticulating around walnuts trees, gazing at their own reflection on a pond, running away in terror, repeating pointless chores. Engulfed in fear and madness, the two figures pretend to belong to real life but act as if locked in an abstract fairy tale.
During the exhibition the artists will also present a performance based on Du noir dans le vert where they will analyse obsessional behaviour and explore time, past or present, real or imaginary.
Marie-France & Patricia Martin are from Switzerland. Recently they showed at the Palais des Beaux Arts, Brussels; Fri-Art Kunsthalle, Fribourg, Switzerland and were part of the Fashion in Film Festival (Ciné Lumière, ICA, Museum of the Moving Image in New-York).
In The Open (Monster Series), Paulette Phillips presents a series of 7 videos that display animals in captivity within constructed landscapes. The animals and landscapes are collaged from disparate elements collected during the artist's travels over the last five years and reflect her interest in natural history and the complex relationship to colonialism. The footage is shot in zoos and landscapes in Toronto, Montreal, Berlin, London, Rotterdam, Paris, Monaco, San Diego and New York.
Her second work, Touche, is an on-going installation that explores the site of an abandoned house, E 1027 built by Eileen Gray in 1929 which sits as a ruin in the South of France. The installation places the conflicting energies, theories and expressions of Le Corbusier and Gray into dynamic relief. Touche will be the first manifestation of an on-going series of works the artist has been working on since 1999.
The artist and the gallery would like to thank Go Modern for the loan of the Bibendum chair.
Paulette Phillips' film installations construct uncanny experiences that amplify our attachment to voyeuristic pleasure, narrating observation through the use of classical film techniques. Recent exhibitions include: Mois de la Photo, Montreal, The Power Plant Toronto; Diaz Contemporary Art, Toronto, ZKM, Germany; Kunsthaus Graz, Austria; Heidelberger Kunstverein, Germany; Ludwig Museum, Hungary and Palazzo delle Papesse, Siena, Italy.

Meet Our School-Home Coordinator - Karen Bunton
As the School-Home Coordinator with the district's Students Services Department, I work to ensure quality programming and support for our students placed in out of district programs as well as our students and families being educated in district. In this role, I strive to meet the information and support needs of our families. As a district, we recognize that our students and families benefit when their emotional and health-related needs are met. We know that partnering with families strengthens the stability of our families as they work to provide for their child's needs. With this in mind, I work together with families and school personnel to identify each family's needs and then provide guidance and support with accessing programming, community-based resources, state agencies and other local resources for support. I extend a warm welcome to all our families in Westborough and look forward to working with you should the need arise.

I came across these beauties a few weeks ago and am still waiting for my student loan to come through so I can buy them; I thought I'd treat myself to an investment pair of summer shoes considering the rest of the money will be going on rent and ink! I don't really do sandals and so I thought these would be a great alternative, keeping my feet nice and cool without having get my toes out...toes are weird!
You can also buy them in tan or mustard and to be quite honest with you I want all three colours! You can find the blue ones, (which I feel are more of a teal - may favourite colour), here.
I've also had my eye on this gorgeous River Island playsuit. I tried it on last week whilst shopping in Plymouth with my Mum which was a big mistake because it looks even better on, literally fit beautifully. But £40 seems a lot when I should be saving to move to London eek!


Treat yourself to a test drive in the 2019 Ford F-150. Smooth gearshifts are achieved thanks to the powerful 8 cylinder engine, and for added security, dynamic Stability Control supplements the drivetrain. Four wheel drive allows you to go places you've only imagined. Top features include a split folding rear seat, a tachometer, variably intermittent wipers, a rear step bumper, air conditioning, fully automatic headlights, tilt steering wheel, and much more. Ford ensures the safety and security of its passengers with equipment such as: dual front impact airbags with occupant sensing airbag, front side impact airbags, traction control, brake assist, ignition disabling, and 4 wheel disc brakes with ABS. We pride ourselves in the quality that we offer on all of our vehicles. Please don't hesitate to give us a call.


As I wrote yesterday, the Senate Judiciary Committee is holding a hearing this morning on the need to revise the disparate 100:1 ratio of penalties for crack and powder cocaine. Here is Assistant Attorney General Lanny Breuer's written testimony.
The Administration believes Congress's goal should be to completely eliminate the sentencing disparity between crack cocaine and powder cocaine.
However, we recognize that federal courts have the authority to sentence outside the guidelines in crack cases or even to create their own quantity ratio. Our prosecutors will inform courts that they should act within their discretion to fashion a sentence that is consistent with the objectives of 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a) and our prosecutors will bring the relevant case-specific facts to the courts' attention.


According to a new University of Cambridge study, children actually get more satisfaction from the relationship they have with their pet than they do with their siblings and actually get along better with their animal than their brothers or sisters. Not only that, a dog or a cat could be more beneficial to your child's development. The study notes that there is evidence a pet can have a positive effect on a child's development, social skills and emotional well-being.
"Even though pets may not fully understand or respond verbally, the level of disclosure to pets was no less than to siblings," Matt Cassells, the study's lead researcher, shares. "The fact that pets cannot understand or talk back may even be a benefit as it means they are completely non-judgmental." And in a lot of cases a heck of a lot cuter!


I came across a publication the other day called The Emerald Burrito of Oz, put together by John Skipp and Marc Levinthal. It was an account of Gene Spielman of Los Angeles' visit to his friend Aurora Jones, the proprietor of the Emerald Burrito which is the only Mexican restaurant in Oz, a magical world that seems to exist in parallel with our own and is the true world which L. Frank Baum based his books on. The gate exists in Salina, Kansas, but it requires special government permission to pass through. This would explain the recent influx of Munchkins working around Salina in recent years.
This world of Oz plays by its own rules, right down to the laws of science. Things don't work the same as they do over here, especially when it comes to technology. In Oz, only the simplest of technologies work. When any man-made technology passes through the gate, the results are…unpredictable, which leads to some odd situations, especially when reading through Gene's account written on the computer he took with him.
It becomes very easy to feel lost with this account, especially if you are only familiar with the Judy Garland movie (and to a lesser extent the much darker "Return to Oz" with Fairuza Balk; this book was originally published back in 2000, before "Oz, the Great and Powerful" was even a gleam in a studio executive's eye). There are references to individuals and creatures that, to my knowledge, are only accounted for in the L. Frank Baum books, which I haven't read.
The book has more violence than you might initially expect from something related to Baum's children's books, but then you remember that is the real life accounting of time in Oz during a civil war as they face off against someone known as the Hollow Man. When you get the real life counterparts of an axe-wielding Tin Man or the Lion, there's going to be violence and blood.
While the book seemed interesting for what it is, I had a hard time getting into it. Admittedly, this may be because, as I mentioned above, I haven't read Baum's original books, so there was some sense of feeling lost in a world that I should have reviewed the map for before traveling there. The players are interesting, with Aurora being the traditional tough hero while Gene is more of a wimp, but I would have liked to learn more details about the real life counterparts of the Scarecrow or the Lion. Still, you get quite a bit of story, character, and world-building, and The Emerald Burrito of Oz is one of the longer books to fall into the bizarro genre with very little padding, so you'll get more substance out of your reading.
The Emerald Burrito of Oz earns 3 flying monkeys out of 5.
Note: Just in case you can't tell (and there some are some out there who might not), this review was written in character. Yes, I know it's not real.

Q: Suitescript: Workflow Action script sent emails not appearing in transaction tab I have created a workflow action script to send emails so that I can process the incoming messages later on with a email plugin (this might be redundant though I am just experimenting with workflow action scripts at the moment)
This is the script:
    /**
     *@NApiVersion 2.x
     *@NScriptType WorkflowActionScript
     */
    define(["N/email", "N/render", "N/record"], function (email, render, record) {
      function onAction(context) {
        var transaction = context.newRecord;
        var transactionId = transaction.getValue({ fieldId: "tranid" });
        log.debug("transaction Id", transactionId);
        var recipient = transaction.getValue({
          fieldId: "custbody_first_approver",
        });
        var recipientId = parseInt(recipient);

        var vendorId = transaction.getValue({ fieldId: "entity" });

        var mergeResult = render.mergeEmail({
          templateId: 11,

          entity: {
            type: "vendor",
            id: parseInt(vendorId),
          },

          recipient: {
            type: "employee",
            id: parseInt(recipient),
          },
          supportCaseId: null,
          transactionId: transactionId,
          customRecord: null,
        });
        var emailSubject = mergeResult.subject;
        var emailBody = mergeResult.body;
        email.send({
          author: -5,

          recipients: parseInt(recipient),

          subject: "test",
          body: emailBody,
          relatedRecords: {
            transactionId: transactionId,
          },
        });
      }

      return {
        onAction: onAction,
      };
    });

The email is being sent though a copy of it only seems to be getting stored against the recipient's (who is an employee) entity record.
Looking at the Netsuite guide on the 'N/email' module, it suggests the
    relatedRecords: {
                transactionId: transactionId,
              },

part of the script should be controlling where the message is stored. However, there is nothing in the transaction record under the related records or any other tab.
What do I need to change to get a copy of the email message saved against the transaction record?
Thanks

A: I found the cause of the issue. It was this line:
var transactionId = transaction.getValue({ fieldId: "tranid" });

It needed to be
var transactionId = transaction.getValue({ fieldId: "id" });

in order to pick up the internal id of the record and not just the transaction number.
All references to it in the script needed to be converted to integer values since otherwise I kept getting the "Wrong parameter type: options.transactionId is expected as number" error.
I converted this by using parseInt(transactionId) every time I referred to the transaction ID

Climate Change: The Obie Awards Chairman Charts the Seasonal Highs and Lows | Village Voice
Climate Change: The Obie Awards Chairman Charts the Seasonal Highs and Lows
by Michael Feingold
Michael Feingold, Obies chairman, at the podium during the 2014 Obie Awards ceremony on Monday, May 19 at Webster Hall. Sandy Honig
I always thought Charles Dickens was exaggerating. "It was the best of times; it was the worst of times." C'mon, every era has its ups and downs, but life essentially flows on down the mainstream, only occasionally overflowing onto one side or the other, doesn't it?
Doesn't it?
Then came 2013-'14. I had, and am still having, the bumpiest, most disorienting year of my life, full of highs, lows, and confusions. I assumed it was just me personally — after all, if you're a critic who has been filing reviews weekly for four decades, you can't simply stop without feeling at least a little disoriented, can you? But then I looked around and saw that it wasn't only me. Criticism was experiencing disorientation everywhere.
Those luckier souls who continued to hold regular reviewing gigs were feeling it just as strongly as those who, like me, had been displaced by the troubling but unavoidable evolution of time and the corporate web world. Whether criticism was still worth practicing in this changed environment — whether it could still be practiced — was suddenly an open question.
And then, unexpectedly, I found myself back in my comfy old Obie chair, assembling a team of whip-smart judges, and by the time we'd finished bickering and sorted out a juicy list of winners, I was able to cast a backward glance on the year. Which is when I realized that what was happening to me, and to criticism, was happening to the theater, too. The logical conclusion, given that theater both reshapes the world and is shaped in response to it, is that what's happening is universal — or, at any rate, global. The world is no longer the definable context any of us has previously known.
For the theater, this means that there is, in effect,no mainstream. The standard form of theater experience, in which someone writes a play, it tells a story by whatever means its author has chosen, and the actors embody roles in the story using whatever stylized or contextual means they and their director choose — that form still exists, but it is no longer standard. Yet the assaultive, deconstructive, interactive, or immersive forms by which diehard avant-gardists have sought to replace the standard form have not replaced it. Audiences can still follow, and gain satisfaction from, the standard form, but it's no longer central to their theatergoing. Likewise, they can savor the immersive, the assaultive, the deconstructive and what have you, much as they would enjoy an amusement-park ride or a good party, but the satisfaction they gain from it offers no equivalent to the old satisfactions of theatergoing, and it may not even bear any relation to them. It is all a new world, in which nothing is central.
*SECTION BREAK
Realizing this explained a great deal to me of the dissatisfaction I felt, on and off all year, while going to the theater. Not, mind you, a dissatisfaction with work that smacked of the new. At my age, I'm entitled to be an old stick in the mud, and I am, but I'm still a forward-looking old stick in the mud. The plays that caught my attention and exhilarated me, making theatergoing seem worthwhile, were among the year's emphatically non-mainstream experiences. Two of their writers, Branden Jacobs-Jenkins and Will Eno, are on our 2014 winners list. Three others I'd like to mention were Lucas Hnath's A Public Reading of an Unproduced Screenplay about the Death of Walt Disney, Jenny Schwartz's Somewhere Fun, and Madeleine George's deliciously ingenious The (Curious Case of the) Watson Intelligence. All three gave birth to superb performances, two samples of which our committee managed to find places for on that category's very crowded list.
It was, on the contrary, standard-form plays — sometimes even old plays that I'd been rather fond of in earlier incarnations — that lacked effectiveness for me. Too often, everybody involved seemed to be either trying too hard or to have given up trying altogether. This was more consistently true on Broadway than off, and even there you could find a cast catching the sense of a familiar work and running with it, as the cast of A Raisin in the Sun does. Nor was there any lack of effect when a tigerish old pro like Tyne Daly in Mothers and Sons, or our superb Lifetime Achievement winner Estelle Parsons, in the short-lived Velocity of Autumn, started tearing the place apart. Where there's no mainstream, there's room for everything, including great plays (if you can find one) and great acting. There were even a few Broadway musicals — my favorite was the tickly-funny Gentleman's Guide to Love and Murder — that featured not only attractive music but beautiful singing, with female leads (Gent's Guide has two) who actually sing, rather than belt, in their soprano range.
That went against recent Broadway practice, but recent Broadway practice hardly seems to matter on Broadway these days, much less Off- and Off-Off-Broadway. Will Eno, whose writing gets more interesting as his plays slither into and disrupt traditional forms, was among the playwrights I'd have least expected to turn up on Broadway in today's economic climate, but there The Realistic Joneses sits, with an excellent castful of stars lending it their gleaming presence. I happened to prefer his sly fox of an Off-Broadway work, The Open House, and I'm glad we got the chance to honor both it and its director, Oliver Butler. Interestingly, Eno's evolution makes my point: His earlier, resolutely non-conventional monologue texts, like Thom Pain (based on nothing) and Title and Deed, didn't pique my interest. These recent works, which take the old form and party with it structurally, very much do.
I remember once hearing the great French actor-director Jean-Louis Barrault say something that has stayed with me: "A real chair in a real setting isn't interesting. A stylized chair in a stylized setting isn't interesting. But a stylized chair in a real setting — now that's interesting." Barrault, in his versatility, could be a touchstone for our time. A master of classical French acting, he was likewise both a superb mime and skilled enough at naturalistic detail to become a movie star. When Barrault ran a Paris theater in the 1950s and '60s, he produced works from France's literary pantheon — Racine, Beaumarchais, Marivaux — side by side with outrageous, sometimes scandal-causing new plays by the likes of Beckett, Genet, and Ionesco.
In the middle of all that, he found time to revitalize pieces of saucy 19th-century triviality like Feydeau's Occupe-toi d'Amélie and Offenbach's La vie parisienne. As a student, I saw and was blown away by that last celebrated production when it played here at City Center in 1964 (in rep with works by Racine, Beaumarchais, and Ionesco). Yearsa later, I found what he had written about it in one of his volumes of memoirs: "I produced La vie parisienne because I concluded that it was necessary for the company's artistic development." Yes: When you are orating as one of Racine's Roman heroes, and climbing up the mound toward Winnie in Beckett's Happy Days, it is also necessary for you and your whole company to do the can-can.
That makes perfect sense to me. Barrault had an advantage, though: He lived in a country where the tradition of nationally subsidized art had deep roots, where a more homogeneous population carried on its political contentions with far less rancor (though there was plenty of the latter when he premiered Genet's The Screens), and where a lopsided economy was not compelling artists to learn to cope, as ours must today, with severely reduced expectations. There was, too, more time for everything, including contemplation. Our Internet-driven hunger for instant results leaves us little enough of that.
And yet we have time — enough of it anyway, for the remarkable artists on our Obie winners list to have achieved the work we've honored them for. And we know — the committee knows better than anyone else — how many more our theater possesses to equal them. In our struggle to sort out what the hell we are doing and why, we must always remember that we are blessed. On a bad night in the theater, I may feel that I am trapped in some inexplicable purgatory. The next night, at a different show in a different performance space, I can feel that I'm the luckiest man alive.

Should I use a Fensa registered installer?
Using a Fensa registered installer isn't compulsory but it helps to protect you from cowboys and rogue traders. It will also make life a whole lot easier in regards to Building Regulations. Replacement windows must meet a certain energy efficiency rating and once fitted you need a certificate to show your installation complies. By using a Fensa registered company they'll issue this certificate, otherwise you'll need the council to look at the new windows.
