Regional Planning by the Federal Government
Initiation of the Tennessee Valley Development
The Muscle Shoals Power and Nitrate Project
Regional Planning in United States and Abroad
Regional Planning in Tennessee River Basin
Possible Results of Tennessee Regional Plan
A First Experiment in regional planning by the federal government got under way July 1, 1933, with the taking over from the War Department of the government properties at Muscle Shoals by the newly-created Tennessee Valley Authority. President Roosevelt said in his message of April 10, recommending the Tennessee Valley development to Congress: "If we are successful here, we can march on step by step in a like development of other great natural territorial units within our borders." Arthur E. Morgan, chairman of the Tennessee Valley Authority, likewise emphasized, in a statement upon taking over the Muscle Shoals properties, that one of the purposes of the present experiment would be to develop a procedure which could be applied to similar projects elsewhere.
The Tennessee Valley Authority Act, by which the present experiment was authorized, has three legislative characteristics of general importance. (1) Broad, fundamental principles are laid down by Congress rather than numerous detailed administrative instructions. "We have sought to set up a legislative framework, but not to encase it in a legislative straight-jacket," said the conference report. (2) The act registers a growing impartial conviction in Congress that the government-owned corporation is the most efficient and satisfactory instrument for carrying on a government business enterprise. (3) The idea of an elastic and independent government "Authority," reconciling the various interests of several states and the many other conflicts resulting from such a large-scale development, is given a powerful impetus by the new legislation.
Significance of the Tennessee Valley Project
The project involved in the Tennessee Valley legislation is a very large one. An ultimate investment of close to $2,000,000,000 has been estimated. The entire drainage basin of the Tennessee River is directly concerned, and large adjacent areas are indirectly affected by the development. This area is four-fifths the size of England and takes in parts of eight states.

Celts rarely forget, are not quick to forgive. In the early fifteenth century Henry IV waged war on the people of Wales and their king, Owen Glendower. After a campaign that started in 1400 and lasted a dozen years Henry won handily. In victory, vengeance.Henry vented his rage on the Welsh people with fines and restrictions and imposts that kept them poor and downtrodden for centuries. Mark you, this was only an extension of what Edward I had started at Rhuddlan Castle.
English history books rarely refer to this and, indeed, there is a spectacularly mendacious plaque at Rhuddlan which tells how Edward II brought the Welsh peace and prosperity. Pig's bum, he did.My father used to speak of Edward II with considerable bitterness and it took me quite a while to realise that the subjugation of the Welsh had not happened in my father's time but in the twelfth century.
My father was always pleased that Rhuddlan castle was slighted in 1648. (A lovely word, slighted. It means to bash great holes in castle walls so that they can never be again used for their original purpose. A speciality of Oliver Cromwell.).Once he had beaten the Welsh Henry IV and his successors kept them caged and supervised from a series of castles many of which had been started by Edward.
One of the key points for the control of the barbaric Welsh tribes was the walled city of Chester which is right on the Welsh border, was called Deva by the Romans and is now one of the most attractive cities in England. Perhaps the most attractive. I am at one with James Boswell who wrote, 'Chester pleases my fancy more than any town I ever saw.'.Until the sixteenth century the good burghers of Chester were encouraged to murder any person of Welsh descent who was found inside the city walls after sunset and were rewarded for the efforts by the sheriff.
The last law allowing the Welsh to be penalised with a smart thumping for being Welsh and being in Chester at night was not repealed until 1958. Note most carefully that date. 1958. Less than 50 years ago. Recent history.Thus, although I love Chester as a place of serene beauty, I tend to keep my eyes peeled when wandering around after sunset.
Perhaps not everyone who lives in Chester has been kept fully informed as to the changes in the law.The best way to get Chester into perspective is to walk right around the city walls. There is still a lot standing and restoration work continues apace. These walls are Roman with medieval admixtures. Indeed, parts of them might even be older than the Roman occupation.
The Romans enjoyed Chester although it was viewed as a frontier post to protect England against attacks by the ferocious Welsh tribes. For a time it was the headquarters of the Valeria Victrix legion whose proud boast was that it was never beaten in combat. Near Eastgate is the largest Roman amphitheatre in Britain which could hold as many as 8,000 spectators.The walls cover a distance of just under four kilometres and give you marvellous views of the city and of the surrounding countryside and the threatening hills inhabited by the Welsh barbarians over there on the near horizon.You also see the meandering river Dee which made Chester an important seaport during sailing ship days and exported cheese, candles and salt. When steam came the ships went to Liverpool.
A Roman engineer laid out the streets of Chester sometime around 79 AD. Chester was important then, has been important ever since. For the land surrounding Chester was rich farming land and the wealth from the land and from the seaport was used in the building of the city.The most obvious aspect of this wealth are the rows. Great galleried galleons of buildings in magnificent black and white.
Some ancient dating back to the 13th century; some Victorian conceits that meld in perfectly.The cathedral is a wonder of 14th century sandstone. The bells call the people to worship with a peal of Bob Major where the lead bell is driven by a carillon, a system unique, I believe, in the world. William Makepeace Thackeray and his wife are buried there.From the sacred to the bravely profane. Chester Castle dates from the 13th Century - an original Welsh restraining order - but was extensively modernised by the Victorians so that now only the Agricola Tower is original.
Last time I was there I heard a Peruvian Band playing the Andean flutes and a group of dashing young men in white ties and tails playing 42nd Street con brio. Magic stuff but the crowds make it difficult to even walk from the Eastgate to King Charles' Tower.Weekdays is the time if you want to walk with a guide.
They depart at 10.45 am from the Tourist Information Centre in the Town Hall. Or you can patrol the walls with a Roman legionnaire. My legionnaire had flaming Welsh red hair and an accent which owed more to Wrexham than Rome but let us not be picky.If, like me, you prefer more solitary pleasures early Sunday is the time.
The earlier the better. Then you can wander round and see the wonderful architecture without bouncing off people.If you lose your way and stop to ask for directions explain carefully that you are Australian. It could be a disaster they thought you were Welsh.

Introducing SEC Week: Underlying Literary Themes in the SEC
By Matt Hinton Aug 21, 2007, 3:45pm EDT
Share All sharing options for: Introducing SEC Week: Underlying Literary Themes in the SEC
The Individual in Society
• Society and a person's inner nature are always at war.
• In spite of the pressure to be among people, an individual is essentially alone and frightened.
It wasn't always this way, but for years now, Vanderbilt has been the John Quincy Adams of the SEC, the distinguished, pedigreed gentleman of a bygone era, overwhelmed and held hostage by the democratic transfer of power to the less educated public, whose emphasis on the mind was hijacked and turned into a bludgeon for proponents of the "natural man," eventually compelled by the surrounding culture to hide its true nature or fade into obsolesence. The fight has been a sustained one, but never destined for anything better than failure as long as it disdains the crass enterprise of the opposition for satisfaction in esoteric principle and graduation rates.
But if Vanderbilt would be more at home among some bizarro Ivy League with Duke, Northwesetern, Rice, Tulane and the like, it has made some adjustments to the vulgar reality of its predicament; as the university is simultaneously the smallest and wealthiest school in the SEC, its ethos of maximizing per student resources has carried over to its athletic department, which counterintuitively spends more money per athlete, male and female, than any other school in America. It's nothing but the best for Commodore athletes. They're just not the best athletes.
The role of the individual's inner nature in society as it relates to Tim Tebow: Society, like, couldn't be more eager to relate to Tim Tebow's inner nature:
There is no limit to Tebow's capacity for friendship and giving...
Growth and Initiation
Aspects of childhood are retained in all of us, sometimes hindering growth.
In Les Miles' first game an SEC head coach, against Tennessee back in `05, with the game tied in the fourth quarter and a few seconds on the clock, LSU picked off a pass that set it up with a chance to make a quick throw or two and win with a field goal. It was potentially a crucial, game-winning play, and in his excitement, Miles tried to call his team's last timeout, though the clock was stopped (this was pre-3-2-5-e) and LSU had to have the timeout for a chance to kick. Assistants restrained him, and despite Tennessee's win in overtime, I attributed his astounding loss of cool to a momentary lapse.
But I've been reminded of that moment again and again over the offseason, during Miles' one-man pissing match with old mythical title/Joe McKnight recruiting rival USC, a team that bears no bearing on LSU's chances to win the SEC or play for the mythical championship, and especially in his expletive-laced tirade against Alabama, which he unilaterally declared LSU's new "big time rival," WWF style. In six months, Miles has built his reputation as a petulant hothead who either a) feels the need to lash out to compensate for his insecurity in the shadow of his balleyhooed predecessor, or b) is a firm believer in a Bush-like doctrine of preemption, hell bent on an overwhelming show of force that commands respect in far flung lands and disregards the penalties of hubris. With comparable weaponry at his disposal, Miles should hope his tough rhetoric prior to engagement ends better than all that.
• Manhood is often established by an abrupt, random crisis, sometimes at an unusually early age.
• A person grows only in so far as he or she must face a crisis of confidence or identity.
In the same game referenced above, Erik Ainge suffered his own breakdown in the first half, of a much greater magnitude, ending in a stunning, no-look toss out of his own end zone into the grateful arms of Kenneth Hollis, putting LSU up three touchdowns and signalling the sophomore's total submission to the pressures of his position. Ainge barely played in the last nine games, and led losses to South Carolina and Notre Dame when he did. His face was recorded for future textbooks on crises of confidence in upper adolescence:
I think it will be to his enduring credit, then, that Ainge came back to win eight of the ten games he really played in last year, one of the losses by a point to the eventual mythical champion, and that he returns as the only stable element of Tennessee's offense, and therefore one of the conference's most indispensible players. The no huddle that's rumored to make up a significant portionof the Vols' upcoming game requires Ainge to be "a coach on the field," which couldn't be further from where he was two years ago, when it wasn't certain he had it in him to shoulder anything.
There are many ways for Tennessee to fail, but continued competence from Ainge is its only forseeable path to success.
Growth and Initiation as it relates to Tim Tebow: Tim Tebow sprung fully formed from the skull of John Elway. He has never suffered a crisis of confidence. Tim Tebow's childhood is lived vicariously through others' interpretations of his great works:
Modern culture is defective because it doesn't provide group ties which in primitive cultures makes alienation virtually impossible.
For anyone desiring proof that Arkansas is not, in fact, a primitive culture, see only its failure to cohere to any ties as a group, and its melodramatic tendency for the last eight months to produce nothing but alienation: Damian Williams felt alienated, Gus Malzahn felt alienated, Mitch Mustain felt alienated, and so all three alienated themselves from their home state for fresh starts to the west. The program itself alienated rabid e-mailer Teresa Prewett, a move that alienated certain segments of the fan base, who then alienated themselves from reality via the most overwrought and litigious means possible, thus leaving Houston Nutt somewhat alienated from his wife.
They do all, however, still agree that Darren McFadden is one fast tranny.
Alienation as it relates to Tim Tebow: If Tim Tebow occasionally feels alienated from his adoring public, it's only because he suspects their well-meaning but feeble minds fail to grasp the complexity of his true, infallible brilliance:

Q: vb.net count distinct row in sql and store it in INT variable i need to count the distinct row in sql database
and after that the result will be stored in Int variable
for example
count the distinct row(SalesID) in tblSales(table)
and store it in NUM(int variable) .
TIA :)
    Public Function ExecuteQuery(ByVal query As String) As DataTable
        Try
           Dim cn As New SqlConnection(con)
           Dim da As New SqlDataAdapter(query, cn)
           Dim cb As New SqlCommandBuilder(da)
           Dim dt As New DataTable
           da.Fill(dt)

           Return dt
        Catch ex As Exception
           MessageBox.Show(ex.Message)
           Return Nothing
        End Try

       ExecuteQuery(count)
       dim Num as Integer = Int32.Parse(Val(count))
    End Sub

A: you could try something like this
Dim num As Integer
Dim sql As String
sql = "select count(distinct SalesID) from tblSales"
Using con As New SqlConnection(connStr)
    Using com As New SqlCommand(sql, con)
        con.Open()
        num = Convert.ToInt32(com.ExecuteScalar())

In collaboration with Williams' Claiming Williams initiative. The theme for Claiming Williams 2021 is "From Racial Injustice to Restoration." Throughout the day, we aim to explore the ways in which structural racial inequities, racism, and bigotry on campus and in the wider world have shaped the Williams College experience for students, faculty and staff. All events are directed to the campus community unless they are specified "open to the public" or are listed on the public calendar. This event is free and open to the public.
"The Green Room: a peaceful space for progressive minds" is as a weekly informal conversation moderated by Williams professors and students, "The Green Room" will offer an opportunity for Williams students and community members to critically engage with the arts industries in which they someday hope to work, and learn from important leaders in those industries. The goal of this program will be to offer advice and mentorship resources to socially-minded, artistically conscious Williams students, but also to serve as a platform through which students can participate in a dialogue with leaders in the arts.
We're inviting a diverse group of leading performing artists to join us in conversation over the course of the academic year, and we would love for you to be among them. "The Green Room: a peaceful space for progressive minds" will consist of serially-produced one-hour "episodes" in which speakers will be introduced, be given the opportunity to make a statement on your vision and advice, and later have a chance to answer questions from students. These discussions will take place via Zoom (or another interactive platform). All are welcome!

Камергер стула (, официальное название Groom of the King's Close Stool) — придворный (камергер), помогающий монарху в удовлетворении его естественных потребностей. В обязанности камергера входило обеспечение короля всеми принадлежностями для туалетных нужд.

Несмотря на необычность должности, она была очень востребована даже среди дворян и давала ряд привилегий. Физическая близость роли камергера стула приводила к тому, что он становился той персоной, которому король доверял и с которым делился многими секретами. Камергер короля был слугой мужского пола, отвечал за поставку чаши с водой и полотенец, а также осуществлял контроль за диетой короля и работой его кишечника.

История

Должность камергера стула известна с начала Тюдоровского периода. В первые годы правления Генриха VIII этот титул присваивался придворным товарищам короля, которые проводили с ним время в . Обычно это были сыновья дворян или знатных господ, которые с течением времени стали действовать как личные секретари короля. Естественно, что эта должность была особенно ценной, поскольку позволяла беспрепятственно общаться с королем.

При Елизавете I эту функцию выполняла Первая леди опочивальни, .

Король Эдуард VII, заняв английский трон в 1901 году, упразднил должность камергера стула.

Pullman Earns National Monument Status
Obama designates neighborhood's historic district for preservation
Published on March 3, 2015 March 3, 2015
By Andrew Koski
On February 19, President Obama—with Mayor Emanuel at his side—announced the designation of Pullman as a National Monument to a crowd of cheering supporters at Gwendolyn Brooks Preparatory Academy. For the Emanuel campaign, the announcement was a valuable pre-election coup: "Rahm hasn't just fought for a national park in Pullman. He's fought for new opportunity and new jobs in Pullman and for every Chicagoan in every neighborhood," said Obama. For residents of Pullman, who have been working to have the area recognized by the National Parks Service, the moment was the culmination of a five-decade grassroots movement to preserve the neighborhood's rich historical and architectural value.
Under the American Antiquities Act, the President has the power to declare historic landmarks as national monuments by public proclamation and "may reserve as a part thereof parcels of land, the limits of which in all cases shall be confined to the smallest area compatible with proper care and management of the objects to be protected." For Pullman, this means that the historic district will become a part of the National Parks Service, albeit a smaller one than a full-fledged national park.
The National Parks Service will maintain portions of Pullman similar to the way it looks after the Washington Monument or the Statue of Liberty. The combined area will be bounded by 103rd and 115th Streets to the north and south, and Cottage Grove Avenue and the Norfolk and Western Railway line to the west and east. The National Park Service will control the already federally owned Clock Tower and Administration Building, while the State of Illinois will maintain ownership of the Hotel Florence and residents will continue to own the row houses and small businesses in the community.
"Essentially the national monument designation means the Clock Tower Building will be improved into a visitors' center, and the National Park (Service) rangers will provide security and interpretive services for tourists," Kayce Ataiyero, a spokeswoman for House Democrat Robin Kelly, who represents Pullman, told the Tribune. She said the designation will not have a major effect on the everyday lives of Pullman's residents.
The Pullman National Monument will receive a modest yearly budget from the federal government, which will go toward programming and maintenance costs, but the monument will rely primarily on support from private donations for funding. The National Park Foundation, the official charity of the national parks, has announced that $8 million in donations has been received so far. "The gifts will help jumpstart critical projects at the new park," the Foundation said in a press release, "including the establishment of a visitor center, educational and experiential exhibits, and programming in the Administrative Clock Tower Building designed to engage schoolchildren, the community, and visitors about the importance of Pullman to America's collective history."
Although the specifics for the National Park Foundation's plan to revitalize the area have yet to be announced, it's clear that their direct influence will be limited to the historic district of Pullman, despite the state of many long-distressed homes outside of the district itself.
Founded in the late 1870s, Pullman was designed to fit company owner George Pullman's ideal of a better industrial American society. He envisioned a company-owned town where his workers and their families could live in brick row houses with access to amenities such as a school, library, and theater. He also wanted to shield his workers from the moral indecencies of nearby Chicago, and discourage the influence of the organized labor movement.
Not everyone, however, shared George Pullman's idealistic—and often paternalistic—vision of paradise. His control was overbearing, even at times tyrannical. In his 1885 exposé of Pullman in Harper's Monthly, Richard T. Ely asked: "Are we not frequently trying to offer the gilded cage as a substitute for personal liberty?"
When workers walked out in 1894 over wage cuts without reduced rent, it sowed the seeds for the event that put Pullman on the map: the Pullman Strike—a boycott by railroad workers against Pullman car-carrying trains that ended with a federal injunction, military invervention, and the deaths of thirty strikers in clashes with federal troops.
But despite its historic significance, the fight to save the neighborhood has been a long one. In 1960, consultants to the South End Chamber of Commerce recommended that Pullman be demolished between 111th and 115th to make way for industrial expansion. Citizens fought to save their community, reactivating the Pullman Civic Organization that same year. In 1971, Pullman was designated as a National Historic Landmark, and it later received similar state and local designations. Although the historic district had been saved from demolition, these designations did not come with a steady stream of government revenue.
Pullman residents formed the Historic Pullman Foundation in 1973 and purchased the Hotel Florence—a massive red brick Victorian hotel—to save the building from demolition and to preserve its legacy as one of the original structures built by the Pullman Company. The Hotel and the Clock Tower and Administration Building were sold to the Illinois Historic Preservation Agency in 1991 as part of an effort to refurbish and preserve the architecture of the historic district of Pullman, but progress has been slow and the buildings are still in need of major repairs. The Clock Tower and Administration Building still hasn't fully recovered from a fire in 1998.
Although it's unlikely that National Monument status will spell an end to those preservation efforts, the increased funding and tourism the designation could bring might lighten the load of area preservationists and ensure that the town's storied past is presented to visitors well into the future.

Karen Ford says:
Would the paper be interested in doing a follow-up story to this one on Reformation Lutheran Church located on 113th and Forest? This church once sat in Pullman Park and Mr. Pullman himself had the church moved and relocated to its present location. President Obama worked out of this church when he was community organizer and the church had kept the office in his honor as he left it. I'm sure Rev. Joel Washington and the congregation would appreciate it.

" Hawaii Judge Issues Injunction Against Use of E-Voting System, Internet Transmission of Votes	"
Hawaii Judge Issues Injunction Against Use of E-Voting System, Internet Transmission of Votes
'Lawful rulemaking' bypassed in state's adoption of Hart Intercivic e-voting machines, contract...
Good news! "Hawaii's illegal use of electronic voting machines and the illegal transmission of vote results over the Internet" has been halted, following a decision from Judge Joseph E. Cardoza, who issued an injunction last night, according to Disappeared News. As Larry Gellar reports from our 50th state...
The suit (Babson v. Cronin, Civ No. 08-1-0115(3) ) was brought by attorney Lance Collins on behalf of five citizens of Maui against Hawaii's Chief Elections Officer (see background on Disappeared News in these articles). The suit challenged three aspects of the voting process, according to attorney Collins:
1. The use of electronic voting machines was not adopted through lawful rulemaking in accordance with the Hawai'i Administrative Procedure Act (HAPA).
2. The use of the Internet and/or telephone lines to transmit vote counts was not adopted through lawful rulemaking (HAPA).
3. The use of the Internet and/or telephone lines to transmit vote counts is not allowed under current state law.
An administrative hearing officer last year, in a ruling that was "extremely critical of Kevin Cronin, the state's chief elections officer" (Honolulu Advertiser,Voting-machine deal in jeopardy, 8/10/2008), found that the Office of Elections acted in bad faith in awarding the contract for voting computers to Hart. The contract was to be cancelled at the end of the year. This new ruling by Judge Cardoza adds that the machines were used in a way that is contrary to Hawaii law.
Honolulu Advertiser's coverage today adds:
The Office of Elections awarded a $43.4 million contract to Hart InterCivic last year for paper eScan and electronic eSlate voting machines through the 2016 elections, with an option to extend the contract to 2018. Election Systems & Software, which bid $18.1 million for the contract, challenged the award.
An administrative hearings officer determined the contract was actually worth $52.8 million and was "clearly unreasonable." The officer found it was too late to cancel the contract before the 2008 elections but ruled the contract should be voided at the end of last year.
And speaking of Hawaii and very disturbing elections, we'll have yet another story, along those lines, here at The BRAD BLOG, hopefully next week...Aloha!

Q: MYSQL - triple Inner Join and SUM Here my tables:
invites
id | inviteFromID | inviteToID | timestamp | joined
---------------------------------------------------
1  | 1            | 234567890  | 2013-02-02| 1
2  | 1            | 345678901  | 2013-02-02| 1

player:
id | FacebookID | first_name | last_name
---------------------------------------------------
1  | 123456789  | Dude       | Master
2  | 234567890  | Super      | Man
3  | 345678901  | Bat        | Man

Rounds:
id | PlayerID | round | played | status
---------------------------------------------------
1  | 1        | 1      | 1     | 1
2  | 1        | 2      | 1     | 0
3  | 2        | 1      | 1     | 1

In this case:
Player with the ID = 1 would have 1 own Point and ID = 2 would have 1 own Point.
But ID 1 invited 2 so ID = 1 in total has two points (explanation below) .
Relationships:
- player.id = invites.inviteFromID
- player.id = rounds.playerID
Description:
A user from the table "player" can invite ppl to a game. The games are played in rounds.
When a User played a game, the "rounds" table updated with "played = 1" and the userId and "status = 1(if won) or status = 0 (if not won)".
To get the points for each User isn't the problem.
Problem:
..the problem is, that every invited user gives the inviter his points too.
So if user A (won 2 rounds = 2 points) invited B, and B played 3 rounds and won 3 rounds ( = 3 points), the overall points of user A are 5 ( Points from A + Points from B).
And that is true for all users A invited to the game, so if user A invited B, C, and D, he will get their points too.
And here I stuck. I tried to Inner Join player, invites and rounds but It didn't work and I 'm stuck right now.
Best Output would be
PlayerID | ownPoints | otherPoints | totalPoints
---------------------------------------------------
1        | 1         | 1           | 2
2        | 1         | 0           | 1

Can someone help me please? :)
EDIT:
Function - getPointsFromPlayer (DEPRECATED: "points" isn't available anymore)
SELECT
    p.points AS OwnPoints, count(p.id) AS UsersCount, SUM(pi.points) AS SumPoints
FROM
    player AS p
INNER JOIN invites AS i ON p.id = i.inviteFromID
INNER JOIN player AS pi ON i.inviteToId  = pi.facebookID
WHERE
    p.id = :inviter AND i.joined = 1
GROUP BY
    p.id

A: Solved it, it was simpler as I thought:
        SELECT
            SUM(CASE WHEN r.status = 1 THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) AS won_rounds
            FROM invites i
            INNER JOIN rounds r ON  i.inviteToID = r.facebookID
            WHERE r.played = 1 AND i.joined = 1 AND i.inviteFromID = :facebookID

Nevertheless, thank you all!


Description du projet : In Canada, the prevalence of chronic diseases is increasing and is contributing significantly to health costs. Prevention and care of chronic diseases is a major preoccupation of our health system. The quality of communication between patients with chronic disease and their health care providers is recognized as playing an important role in the management of their illness. However, few tools have been developed to improve patient-professional communication, and even fewer in French. The goal of this research project is to evaluate the introduction of a French website, Discutons Santé, in the context of regular clinical follow-up, whose aim is to support collaboration between care staff and patients with chronic diseases. The project will take place in primary health care clinics in Quebec and New Brunswick. This project offers the potential to transform clinical practice and to improve the quality of care offered to patients with chronic diseases.

Short Story: DJ Ham Sandwich from DJ Girl 6's Biography: "My Turn"
I will be posting a few short stories from my Biography "My Turn." Let me know what you think!!
From 2007 to about 2010 I regularly played at a nightclub called Casbah at the Taj Mahal at the Trump Tower in Atlantic City. Every time I walked in I heard the same thing: "Put your Fuc*in' Hands Up! . . ." It was the brand new song by DJ Class and the opening DJ was playing it before 11:00 p.m.! Patrons were cringing as though they were being accosted and looking around to see where the yelling was coming from. Hot song or not, the mood was all-wrong. The music was too loud, too intense and just too much for this time of night. The lights on the mixer were soo far into the red that the speakers sounded like they were playing through wax paper. This was an audio assault. ____________________________________________________________________________________________ "Click-clack" I climbed the stairs to the opening DJ's booth above the dance floor. "Hi there! I'm DJ Girl 6, the DJ from Vegas? I'll be video DJing for you guys tonight. I think we've met before." I tolerantly smiled and introduced myself for the third time. "Yeah yea, I love your videos you're amazing! Love your show too with the MC and dancers its super cool." He replies then turns to continue playing aggressive top 40 and house music. "Tap! Tap!" I firmly tapped him on the shoulder the way cops do when they catch you doing something stupid. "Hey, I know we've talked about this before but could you lay off the super new/hot/hard songs and stick to opening music maybe?" Teeth clenched, I spoke through them making less of an effort to appear cordial. "Sureeee." He dragged his reply out dripping with sarcasm. "Click clack," back down the stairs I descended rolling my eyes. Its not that I need those songs. Half of the issue is respect. An opener should have enough respect and etiquette towards the closer to refrain from burning them. The other half is, once those songs are played, some people just leave and it hurts attendance and bar sales. They heard their favorite song, what do they have to look forward to? Sure, I can play it again but they could already be gone or, if they are still there, I looked like an unimaginative douche'. ____________________________________________________________________________________________ "So what did 'Ham Sandwich' have to say?" Timid my MC asked. At this point, I was lucky enough to travel with a small entourage of like-minded artists. I toured with an MC, another DJ and a few dancers. Life was good! "Same ole' excuses man. I give Hammy 30 minutes. If he doesn't stop, we're goin' on early." I warned. We called him "Ham Sandwich" because my entire crew was vegan, me included. One night we decided to give Hammy the benefit of the doubt and took him to breakfast after work. He told us about some ham sandwich that Atlantic City is famous for. ___________________________________________________________________________________________ "Sounds cool homes but we're vegan so enjoy, but we're gonna pass," MC Timid respectfully declined on our behalf. Hammy was belligerently drunk. "Nah man! Nah, this is MY city!!! Its not like that! Don't disrespect me when you're in MY town! You're at least gonna TRY it. That not right yo! Snooty ass Vegas crap!" He yelled throughout the restaurant flinging his arms looking around for support. Patrons and restaurant management alike were staring and whispering amongst themselves. "My man, I'm from New York, and I still live there." MC Timid corrected him. I hate being stared at, like absolutely abhor it! Grabbing the sandwich, Timid stops me; "Hey, wait! No! It's not like that let him be a little baby about it." I shove the sandwich in my mouth in a desperate attempt to make the eyes burning a hole into the back of my head stop. ___________________________________________________________________________________________ "Happy?! Now shut up already!" I took a bite and spit it into my napkin. From there on out we collectively called him "Ham Sandwich." ___________________________________________________________________________________________ "Boom boom pow!" rang over the sound system, again before 11:00 p.m. followed by Lady Gaga's Bad Romance, and it was my remix to boot. He defiantly played brand new Pitbull after Pitbull remix mocking me. "Enough is enough. Yo Timid! U ready to make a scene?" I asked eyebrows raised. "Like a crazy Puerto Rican at after hours diner girl!" (I'm half Puerto Rican). He replied giving me a high five. I looked him square in the eye nostrils flared and fire in my eyes. "Ay girl do what you gotta do." He chuckled trying not to laugh. "You're so cute when you're mad, awwe." I may be 5'0, 98lbs but I'm still the boss and I'm still the star. I set up my DJ equipment and cued up a record that started with a quote to get everyone's attention. "Count to about 25, then get on the Mic and start hyping the crowd really hard because it's going to go dead silent for about thirty seconds while I make my way back down the stairs ok?" We performed on a stage on the dance floor and the opener was hidden up in the rafters where nobody could see him. ___________________________________________________________________________________________ Timid was still laughing, " I'm having a hard time taking all that blonde hair and blue eyes seriously" he says, "but hey, you're the boss," and salutes me while laughing as I stomp back up the stairs. ___________________________________________________________________________________________ "Clunk clunk." I climbed the stairs a second time with unwavering determination. "Look at me!" I demand like a school principal. "I warned you!" I scolded him shaking my finger in his face. He smiled back in disbelief. "Yo girlie take it easy relax, chill, its not that serious," he pleaded half-laughing with his palms to me trying to wave me down. "I seriously doubt you'll burn another DJ after THIS!" I reached behind his mixer and pulled out the cords one by one. The club fell completely silent. Even I was shocked at the abrupt change. Shocked and slightly frightened, I headed for the stairs. You could literally hear a pin drop. No shuffle of feet. No swish of skirts. No clinging of ice cubes against glasses. In a club holding over 800 people not a soul flinched. "Y'all ready for the ONE, THE ONLY D J GIRL 6666!!" The once silent crowd emerged from the shadows, where they recoiled from the screaming hype men on every tracks played by the inexperienced opener. ___________________________________________________________________________________________ A roar of support confirmed my intuition. I was correct to change the programming for the room. Nobody wants to be yelled at before they get their first drink. Don't tell me to "put my f*cking hands up. . ." until I'm at least buzzed enough to do it. ___________________________________________________________________________________________ In that instant I learned two things: Never fear the wager of dead silence for the benefit of birth into a new and different musical direction. Second, the first commandment of DJing is, and always will be, NEVER burn your closer.

Literature, music and the arts, all are necessary for the development and flowering of a student to form an integrated total personality. - Rabindranath Tagore
Arts & Education – Process versus Outcome
I got an opportunity to attend a play that was presented by the Head Start school children in Cubbon Park, Bangalore. The multilingual (Kannada, Hindi and English) play was about the Bangalore Metropolitan Transport Corporation (BMTC) buses enacted by a young group of children called 'The BMTC'. This play is directed by Samta and Ashwini, theater facilitators of the school. A synopsis of the play can be viewed on the following link as that shall not be part of this piece: https://headstarteducationalacademy.edu.in/?p=4130
What intrigued me to write the following was actually something that was said towards the end of the play when the children were acknowledging all members involved in the making of it. One girl said, 'We thank the BMTC officials, drivers and conductors for taking out time to share their views during the interviews conducted by us' (transcribed). The play was in fact wonderful and did initiate in developing a perspective on the lives of drivers and conductors and also acted as a window to the city and its people. The children enacted the play flawlessly; they clearly had imbibed the characters. These statements are important in summarizing how well the play was done. But one needs to understand that these statements are only the outcome of the play. The process that was involved in the making of this play is inevitably the result of the outcome and therefore this process is equally important to deconstruct. The statement which was made during the acknowledgements, I felt was actually a very loaded statement that just floated by when voiced. Within that statement was a small window into the process, even possibly the reason why the outcome had left a positive impact. Not as a drama critic but a pedagogue I would like to deconstruct this process and also state the interrelations between art and education and art being more about the process than the outcome.
Head Start school uses BMTC buses to pick and drop the children in the mornings and afternoons respectively. Therefore it is the BMTC bus drivers and conductors that the children interact with during their rides. As soon as the children leave their homes for school the first set of adults they meet are these drivers and conductors. The school believes that they too are educators and therefore were called in for meetings to discuss the importance of their roles in the lives of the children. In fact one parent once shared how excited his child would be when a particular conductor would be there in the bus in the morning and how he would miss him on days he would not come. That in itself shows the impact the drivers and conductors have on these children. These meetings sparked an idea of doing a play in relation to bus experiences (at first) among the theater facilitators. They shared the idea with the children and the children were asked to do improvisations connected to buses. As shared by the facilitator initially the children were not quite able to bring about variety in their improvisations. They mainly revolved around situations such as thefts, accidents, etc. This is when the facilitator decided to give them a flavor of the local buses of Bangalore. They all visited the BMTC main office, met officials, interviewed drivers and conductors, travelled in the buses, visited the Shantinagar bus stand and more. Therefore the children learnt to develop questionnaires, along the process learnt to raise questions on the spur of the moment and also documented their findings once they got back. There was a strong element of research as part of the making of this play that the children got an opportunity to experience and learn from.
While it all began with the BMTC bus drivers and conductors what happened down the lane was that the children also started understanding the city and its people. These children had had an exposure of only a certain space of the city, a certain life a certain perspective but through the exploration of the BMTC they also ended up exploring the functioning of the city, the dynamics of the people and language. They understood the influx of people into this city from other states and the impact it has made at different levels such as language, population, needs and more. Even aspects like weather conditions in terms of its impact on the city people versus the drivers and conductors, the impact on roads and its effects on the traffic pile ups and over all the weather conditions that have drastically changed in the city over time. All of this came through from the discussions they had with the drivers and conductors during their research. It was almost like the members of the bus (drivers and conductors) who have been travelling in it around the city for years actually can see the city through the bus windows like a movie. One can see how much history, culture and experience each individual holds which not only gives that person's perspective on various aspects but also gives a glimpse of the world through that person's eyes. So what began as a story of understanding and exploring the BMTC turned out to be much more that also probably helped the children understand their identity and role in this space.
The children through meetings and visits started understanding that perspectives are not one dimensional. One's perspective of a situation can completely be different from the perspective of another of the very same situation. A good example of this point was shared by the facilitator. During the interviews the children posed questions to the drivers and conductors who travelled together in the same bus for which the responses they got differed to a large extent. On asking them about their point of view on being stuck in traffic jams the driver said it is a painful experience for they are stuck in one place, cannot move for long durations and if the sun is beating down on him it can become excruciating. The conductor on the other hand said that traffic jams give him an opportunity to log all the tickets he has charged so it works well for him. Of course the passengers gave yet another perspective. In another example, while the children were sitting with a lady of the complaints department they witnessed a person whose complaint was that he had been charged Rs.10 extra which he requested to be returned. There were some children who found it rather awkward initially that a person travelled the distance to meet the lady for such a small amount of money. Later when the children went back and had discussions is when they understood the value of money for people. Such experiences and discussions helped the children to truly understand how perspectives can vary and in fact in the larger scheme of things develop a sense of empathy. To imbibe this idea of empathy leads the child to always be aware of or at least would try to be aware of the views of others before taking any action or making any judgments.
The visits like that of the Shantinagar bus stand or travelling in the buses gave the children a great sensorial experience as well. Since these children were there with an agenda their senses were heightened in a focused manner. They were trying to absorb every sound, light, colour, texture, taste, culture, etc. that they possibly could. It is said that the arts help in the refinement of the senses and such experiences clearly show how.
Post research the making of the play began its process. The director/facilitators shared that the casting took place in a rather organic fashion. The children during their research were impacted by certain people that they started to enact during improvisations. Of course the improvisations by now had much more variety and depth in terms of situations, dialogues, characters and more. Children were not told to enact particular characters but rather they chose their own characters which could result in one of the outcome statements like, 'children had imbibed the characters'. The process of casting was so natural that the children were able to not just live and breathe the characters but also further develop the characters over time.
This play interestingly has no script. The children as they chose their characters and events/situations they wanted to enact, similarly the dialogues flowed that came naturally to the chosen characters and chosen events/situations. As shared by the facilitator the children during their initial performances were more hesitant and focused on just finishing the play but over time they not only became more comfortable and confident but also ended up enacting actions and delivering dialogues on the spur of the moment if they felt like it. What language to do the play in, did involve an interesting debate. On the one hand since the play was about BMTC drivers and conductors it seemed inevitable that the script should also be in language/s they use but on the other hand since there was no script and the children were creating the dialogues it was important for them to deliver in a language they were comfortable in. From a pedagogical perspective I felt that it was wonderful that the second choice was taken into consideration. Since the process was so organic in nature in terms of choosing characters and choosing the situations to enact, it would have just led to inconsistency if at that point the children would have been forced to deliver in a language that did not come naturally to them or to choose children to enact a character just because a child is comfortable in a particular language. Such decisions make artists become pedagogues and I believe that that is exactly what the role of the facilitator here was.
The play was performed multiple times in various settings. These performances also lead to various experiences that the children will probably draw from throughout their life. Since 6th and 7th graders were working on this play together there was a lot of friction among them initially. They would mostly clump into smaller groups with their own friends or with their own classmates. It was only through various techniques used by the facilitator and the fact that the children were working towards creating something of their own is what got them to unite. Venues like the one in Cubbon Park did not have well equipped washrooms, or were far from their stage area and there were no designated changing areas. Such challenges not only made the children bond but also helped them become aware and sensitive towards varying spaces and facilities. The play was also covered in the newspaper and at that point the facilitators made it a point to have a discussion with the children that they should not merely look at this as coverage but rather understand that they are creating awareness among the public about this play and that holds a certain level of responsibility.
What was the structure of the play, the techniques used, the plot, etc. are all something that I believe one should go and witness for oneself. All that was shared here was what happened behind the curtains – the process. It was not just a play but the coming together of children to create something that did not exist. It was about getting to know others and in turn also knowing oneself better. It gave the space to question, debate, explore and most importantly there was freedom that was always underlining the process. I believe this play was a fine example to demonstrate the importance of arts in education. It demonstrated how this one play helped in integrating various skills of research, communication, documentation and ideation as well as personality traits like empathy, decision making, responsibility which leads to the development of the child's Self i.e. his/her personality. Arts cannot be analysed based just on the outcome of a painting made or a dance performed or in this case a play. It is about the process and therefore as educators it becomes important to always peep behind the curtains. One should also develop the ability to let the child free so that s/he can create. For creation to happen there can be no imposition on the child or else it just becomes a process of replication. If you, going forward, get an opportunity to see any form of creation by a child take a minute to think what must have been the processes involved, if you are not sure ask the child for s/he would be more than happy to share. Based on that observe the change that will come about in your response, from being an outcome driven response to a process driven response.

Q: Pokemon Black and White for 3DS - Does it exist? My little cousin is asking for Pokemon Black and White for the 3DS... I can find Black and I can find White but I can't find Black and White as a single game. Did I misunderstand?
Is there a Pokemon Black and White game for the 3DS?

A: No.
He either wants Pokémon White OR Pokémon Black, or Pokémon White AND Pokémon Black.

A: There is no 3D Pokemon Games yet except for  X and Y.
But they work fine IN a 3DS, they're just not 3D because they weren't originally designed for a 3D machine.
Hope this helps.

Dry shampoo is absolutely necessary in my beauty arsenal. I wash my hair every 2-4 days, so I need to have something around to refresh my roots on my off days that is quicker than rinsing my hair. I had heard good things about Dove's dry shampoo, and I've been using it for a few months.
This is a great dry shampoo if you're looking for something cheap that you can find at any drugstore. This is definitely not something you'd spray in your hair like a hairspray—too much and you'll see the white product. I just part my hair a few times around my head and give a couple short sprays at the roots, rub it all in, and then brush it out. It makes my hair feel a lot less oily. It's also good for styling your hair when you need a little extra volume at the roots.
I love the scent on this too! It smells really fresh and clean, but it's not too heavy. It fades a bit by the end of the day, but I've never worried about my hair smelling bad or dirty with this product. I want to try the Batiste dry shampoo, which you can find at Ulta and isn't too much more than this one, because they have a few different scents.
What's best about this product, though, is that it will last a LONG time. I've been using the same bottle for months, but since I only use a few sprays of it every couple of days, it takes quite a while to use it up.
In short, if you're looking for an economical but quality dry shampoo, this is a great option. Do you use dry shampoo? Which ones are your favorites?
Definitely! I'd love to hear your thoughts on the BSH one. Review?

Festen - Review
One of the meanings of the Danish word Festen is appropriately Festival and this production exceeded its place as a Fringe event – it was worthy of being part of Brighton's main Festival.
The play is a study of the hypocrisy within a large and wealthy family who gather to celebrate the 60th birthday of the head of the family.
It is obvious right from the beginning that there are undercurrents within family life – not the least being the recent suicide of one of his daughters.
During the speeches at the dinner a shocking truth is revealed the eldest son, Christian and its delivery provided a moment of true theatrical magic. What followed were the reactions of the family members to this revelation. The blind eyes, so long turned away, are forced open to devastating effect as the family disintegrates.
One approaches any production that has Pat Boxall at the helm with the highest of expectations and this one did not disappoint. It was a fusion of faultless direction and superb acting. Staging the piece with a large cast, bearing in mind the limited space available, was finely judged. The set was simple yet impressive with its starkness. The long black dining table with subtle overhead lighting dominated and brought to mind a religious comparison – The Last Supper. In fact for this family it would prove to be their last supper as a complete unit. The music used, along with the lighting, created a brooding and eerie atmosphere.
The atmosphere took on a menacing air with the singing of birthday songs as they went from festive jollity to ritualistic chanting. In the programme notes the play is likened to a Greek tragedy and this came out with use of the three servants urging Christian to finish what he had started. They served as a Greek chorus depicting the Furies calling for revenge.
It would be hard to find a better cast as every actor invested their part with an air of naturalism. The many understated performances gave the production its power and provided its audience with a theatrical experience that was riveting throughout.
With such wonderful ensemble playing it is not possible to single out every performance but I would like to make a couple of observations.
Matthew Houghton's Christian was an example of the effectiveness of underplaying – his quiet measured delivery produced a greater shock when he made his revealing accusations. Likewise a controlled performance from Bob Gilchrist made the father believable as he countered the accusations. The man's affability masked the true monster.
Proof that small roles can also make an impact was provided by Emma Cunliffe as Pia, the maid in her relationship with Christian. Her sensitivity showed the girl to be a truly loving friend and not an exploitive servant. A similar impact was made by Peter Milner as Grandfather on the edge of dementia. It would have been so easy to overplay this role and turn it into a caricature. Again the role received sensitive handling and what emerged was a bewildered Chekhovian figure.
Apologies go to the rest of the cast for not mentioning their performances as do my grateful thanks for an enthralling theatrical experience.

14 Front Yard Tree Favorites
Looking for a tree to provide some curb appeal? Get inspired with these choices.
By: Julie Martens Forney
Photo courtesy of Bailey Nurseries, Inc.
'Sun Valley' Maple (Acer rubrum 'Sun Valley')
A fast-growing red maple, 'Sun Valley' brings outstanding fall color to a front yard. It's a reliable shade tree with good leafhopper resistance. A medium size tree, growth tops out at 20 to 25 feet. Why we love it: This is a male variety—you won't deal with seeds.
Photo courtesy of Monrovia
Eye-catching red blooms appear in early spring, and hummingbirds flock to them. This tree is a perfect choice if you're designing a wildlife garden. These trees can grow up to 30 feet tall, but usually occur in the 8- to 10-foot range with an open form. Why we love it: Red buckeye is as drought tolerant as it is pretty.
Minnesota Strain Redbud (Cercis canadensis)
Tough and beautiful, this redbud has it all. Pink flowers appear before leaves in early spring, and brown seedpods take the spotlight in fall. Branches spread to give the tree a strong architectural appearance. Introduced by the Minnesota Arboretum, it's hardy to Zone 4 and grows to 30 feet tall. Why we love it: It's an unrivaled showpiece in early spring and will draw the envy of the neighborhood.

Called the lilac of the South, crape myrtle brings on the flower show with long bloom clusters that open in a rainbow of hues. The tree has a graceful, architectural branching that graces a front yard with strong lines. Varieties grow from 4 to 11 feet tall. Why we love it: Peeling bark takes beauty over the top, creating a mottled looking trunk.
'Little Volunteer' Tulip Tree (Liriodendron tulipifera 'Little Volunteer')
Tulip poplar was a favorite tree on Southern farms, planted near the home so folks could see the yellow tulip-like blooms from second-story windows. Those trees soared to 60 feet or more. 'Little Volunteer' brings the height into reach of modern homes with small yards, topping out at 12 to 15 feet. Why we love it: For the yellow flowers, of course, but also for the narrow footprint. It grows 5 to 6 feet wide, which means it fits in even tiny yards.
DoreenWynja.com photographer for Monrovia
Slender Hinoki False Cypress (Chamaecyparis obtusa 'Gracilis')
Meet the evergreen tree that's suitable for any size yard. This slender beauty grows to 15 feet with a spread of only 5 feet. The arching branches offer an elegant appearance, especially with the drooping tips. Why we love it: It brings grace and beauty to the landscape in a plant that fits most front yards.
'Autumn Brilliance' Serviceberry (Amelanchier x grandiflora)
A native plant, serviceberry bursts into bloom in spring. The white flowers fade to dark colored berries that birds adore. Fall arrives with a flash of fiery color. Expect it to grow 20 to 25 feet tall. You'll need to prune in early years to control crossing branches, but other than that, it's a cinch to grow. Why we love it: This tree embodies multiseason interest. It doesn't disappoint.
©2013, HGTV/Scripps Networks, LLC. All Rights Reserved.
Deep evergreen leaves earn this tree a beauty award year-round. When berries appear, the tree is spectacular—and beckons birds by the dozens. The original species grows quite large, 40 to 50 feet tall and 18 to 40 feet wide. Look for varieties with a more modest footprint to fit modern yards. Many variegated types are available that bring even more interest to the landscape. Why we love it: It's native, it grows slowly and it's a great wildlife plant.
Pineapple Guava (Feijoa sellowiana)
This tropical fruit makes a great front yard tree, providing plenty of interest from showy spring blooms, to yummy fruits, to striking gray-green leaves. Both flowers and fruits have a refreshing, fruity perfume. Fruit tastes like a pineapple-guava or pineapple-strawberry blend. Birds like the fruit, too. Why we love it: Not only are the flowers pretty, they taste great, too, delivering a dose of sweetness.
Persimmon (Diospyros spp.)
This tree has a wow factor, courtesy of sculptural branching, chartreuse flowers and bright orange fruit. Leaves provide good shade in summer. Asian persimmons are smaller (15 to 20 feet tall), while American varieties are taller (35 to 50 feet). Why we love it: The fruit is versatile in the kitchen, working in everything from muffins to salads. They also make amazing naturally sweet fruit leathers.
'Fastigiata' Spruce (Picea pungens var. glauca 'Fastigiata')
Get the luxe look of a Colorado blue spruce in a tree that fits into small yards. 'Fastigiata' grows in a tight, columnar shape with a spread of 2 to 3 feet at maturity. It tops out around 15 feet. Needles have that classic blue spruce tint to them. Why we love it: Branches respond well to shearing, so you can keep plants even more narrow.
'Kwanzan' Flowering Cherry (Prunus serrulata 'Kwanzan')
Pink double flowers blanket this tree in spring. It's a guaranteed traffic stopper. The tree has a strong vase shape and performs well as a front yard specimen tree. This beauty grows 15 to 25 feet tall and wide. It has a shorter lifespan, living at most 25 years. Why we love it: Do we really have to say? Those pink flowers are beyond description. They're wonderful.
Redleaf Japanese Maple (Acer palmatum var. atropurpureum)
Definitely check out Japanese maples for a front yard tree. You can find many varieties of this maple in assorted sizes and shapes. Some are upright; others weep. This ones grows 15 to 25 feet tall and wide. They can offer strong leaf color through the year or may simply bring striking fall color. Why we love it: The fine leaf texture adds movement and beauty to the landscape. The branches boast strong architectural lines.
Smoke Tree (Cotinus coggygria)
Smoke tree has unusual flowers that fade to form pink plumes resembling smoke. A tree in full smoke is stunning. Trees are drought tolerant once established and easy to transplant. The straight species grows 10 to 15 feet tall. Why we love it: Those pink clouds that float among leaves are beyond striking. They're like something out of a Dr. Seuss story.

Q: Compile SASS and @import from node_modules I'try to compile sass to css and importing a css-file from node_modules/purecss/build/pure.css therefore my sass file look like:
@import '~purecss/build/pure.css';

and my package.json is
{
  "name": "build_test",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "description": "",
  "main": "index.js",
  "scripts": {
    "build:sass": "node-sass --include-path=node_modules Private/Stylesheets/main.scss Public/Style/main.css",
    "test": "echo \"Error: no test specified\" && exit 1"
  },
  "author": "",
  "license": "ISC",
  "devDependencies": {
    "css-loader": "^0.28.9",
    "purecss": "^1.0.0"
  }
}

I've tried it with --include-path=node_modules and --include-path node_modules and --include-paths node_modules but it doesn't work?
Anybody an idea?

A: You need an importer.
For the format you're using with ~, you could use node-sass-package-importer.
Then run sass with the --importer flag like this:
node-sass --importer node_modules/node-sass-package-importer/dist/cli.js source/app.sass dest/app.css

Another option without the ~ is node-sass-import.
And the code is:
node-sass --importer node_modules/node-sass-import source/app.sass dest/app.css

Is the Future of Cookbooks Digital?
by Paula Forbes Sep 28, 2011, 9:10am EDT
Share All sharing options for: Is the Future of Cookbooks Digital?
Amazon's Kindle Fire.
Photo: Amazon
As cookbook season rages on in full force, with cookbooks both stellar and mediocre landing on my desk on a daily basis (two were delivered while I wrote this post), the concept of e-cookbooks seems pretty appealing. Don't get me wrong: I love cookbooks. I own quite a few of them. But is it really necessary to amass them as objects? Especially when their digital brethren can, you know, do stuff?
Take, for example, the e-book version of Julia Child's 752-page Mastering the Art of French Cooking, which debuts this October. Child's book (like many others) cross-references recipes, so that a recipe for Petit Choux au Fromage calls for two cups pate a choux. With an e-cookbook, you can just click the referring recipe and it'll come up on your reader, instead of flipping through the pages looking for it.
Also, publishers speculate you'll soon be able to turn the pages using voice commands so you won't have to get your reader dirty. Can your seven-and-a-half pound copy of Larousse Gastronomique do that? Didn't think so. Add in instructional videos, and digital cookbooks could, in theory, be much more useful for the home cook than printed editions. iPhone and iPad apps from people like Mario Batali, Jamie Oliver, or Nigella Lawson are taking stabs at it — integrating video and shopping lists — there's still room for development in the digital cookbook space.
Designing for the medium
[Photo: Next Restaurant/Facebook]
It's true that until recently, the digital cookbook was a clunky endeavor, in many cases hardly more than a PDF shrunk to fit an e-reader screen. Soon, this might change. Chicago chef Grant Achatz is currently in the process of developing an e-book for the iPad of the first menu for his restaurant Next. According to the restaurant's Facebook page, they're taking full advantage of the capabilities of the iPad: "Kindle cannot yet display the resolution / video that this is in. Android tablets haven't really caught on and the phones of any type are too small. So iPad / mac / ereaders for now." Next also intends to keep the price down: "I just always felt that with no printing costs eBooks should be far cheaper than the $12.99 or so that gets charged by the big publishers...This will be far less."
The end of print
The future domination of digital publication seems inevitable: TechCrunch has what they call a "A dystopian timeline" of the future of print predicting that, by 2025, save for a few exceptions, "all publishing will exist digitally." Wrote John Biggs, "The book is, at best, an artifact and at worst a nuisance." Cookbooks will, presumably, follow suit. With the announcement today of Amazon's Kindle Fire — a $200 color device that can display (and sell) video, magazines, and books — and the forthcoming iPad 3, the end of print is in clear sight. Almost everything will be delivered digital. So do printed cookbooks have a future at all?
The future of the cookbook
While books like The Joy of Cooking and Mastering the Art of French Cooking will go digital-only, there might still be a place for the dead tree variety of cookbook. There's one area the printed book has digital beat: the cookbook as art object. More and more in recent years big name chefs have been releasing huge, photo-heavy tomes. This group of course includes Modernist Cuisine (which tellingly included a waterproof kitchen manual with key recipes for when you actually want to make cook something out of the book), Grant Achatz's Alinea, Heston Blumenthal's Big Fat Duck Cookbook, Rene Redzepi's Noma, and a number of titles from Ferran Adrià.
These books, which are used less frequently by home cooks and are more a record of each chef's restaurant at a particular time, are prized for being objects. (Modernist Cuisine, which isn't connected to a restaurant and is meant more as a reference for professional chefs, is a slight exception.) Books with with flourishes like heavy paper, fancy bindings, and embossed slipcovers lend a sense of luxury to the experience of reading them. That feeling doesn't easily carry over to digital. Much like how music has become a cheap, digital commodity, cookbooks will follow suit — mere texts that will be sold on Amazon or iTunes for, say, $3.99. The printed cookbooks of the future will be gourmet trophies.
And while critic Jay Rayner might deride the digital medium — saying "I think people will find when their iPhone is covered in crap, that cooking with an iPhone is not such a good idea" — it looks like soon, he won't have much choice in the matter. Somebody get the man a rag.
