Ahead by a Century (Week Two):
(Spoiler alert! Read on, however, for a wider discussion of issues from stories.)
I put off writing this second week's summery of Anne with an E (of Season Three) because I needed time to think about what I'd seen, but I do wish I could go back to find my summaries of all Season One episodes and I wish I'd taken the time to write recaps for all of last season that I missed. I was distracted, but I'm back and ready to recap!
(Either on Facebook, or here, or both.)
Only into episode two and I'm reeling from the sharpness of the storyline in this new adaptation. It's not what many would want for L.M.'s Anne Girl character and her world, both at Green Gables and out beyond. It's harshness is what makes it feel authentic and we can't hide from that which is true authenticity, no matter what year we're in.
If you want to escape from our world into the world of a century ago, to forget all our modern troubles, this show does that. The characters ride around in buggies, pulled by horses, and homosexuality isn't spoken of. Perhaps a certain impeachable US pres's grandfather is across Canada at this time, making money off of the greed for gold, but that doesn't mean that this storyline isn't going to be full of the realities of life that made it so harsh at the turn of the 20th century.
Anne is given permission and a blessing, by her adopted family of Marilla and Matthew, to go to Charlottetown and then to the mainland, Nova Scotia, to look for information on her birth parents. She must be accompanied by Gilbert, which she resents, and he is rebuffed by her moments of irritability as she is too preoccupied to see how much he already cares.
She arrives in PEI's capital city to meet up with her gay best friend who will go with her to the orphanage she grew up in.
While Gilbert goes off and explores newly discoverable romance with another, for the time being, a whole other strange B storyline, Anne is brought back to some of the worst times from her early life. While Gilbert has a date in a tea room with a snooty young woman, Anne tries to find out if the orphanage has any record of her parents.
Again, I watch and wonder what places like that were really like for all the abandoned and orphaned little ones in the world, while wishing places like these weren't still existing. Anne says that place is better than some and much worse than others of its kind. Sure, I like to see characters in fiction that I can relate to, blind or disabled or writers or whatever, but I'm also curious about the kind of fiction which explores lives I, myself, have never lived for good or for ill.
The woman in charge is cold and of no help at all, sipping her tea with disdain that Anne would even deem to return for anything. The man on his way out, after admitting he can't take care of his flesh and blood children since their mother died, makes Anne start to wonder if the stories she kept going along with about her own two parents were really that of truth, that they both died of scarlet fever when she was still newly born. Was she really so loved and/or wanted at all?
Cole sees her starting to pull apart all the stories and her imagination that got her through such loneliness, as she finds old pieces of paper with her own stories written hidden in the bell tower of the building. She wonders if it was all foolishness and he tells her how brave she is to him for doing whatever she had to to survive it all those years.
As they head for the door to leave, mission NOT accomplished, Anne is stopped by a young woman scrubbing the floor. It's another orphaned girl who once bullied Anne for daring to dream or have an imagination of any kind. She recognizes Anne and angrily shouts about how she isn't still there, but is now paid to work there, but the whole scene is disturbing and ugly as Anne and Cole leave that place behind them.
From orphanage where children are left without love to the ferry back to the island. Cole won't let Anne give up, but all the work Ms. Stacy and Matthew are doing to repair the old printing press so the children of Avonlea School can print a newspaper is about to lead to an unsettling ending to episode two when Marilla reads Anne's article about meeting and visiting the village of the young Indigenous girl.
(Oh, what times these were where the fear in a white, Christian community of the "other" is so intense they refer to that other group of people as "savages" when such a term is so horrible to hear now that 2020 is the time we're nearly living in.)
**Side note – Interfering neighbour Rachel is a woman of her time, thinking she must find the new teacher a replacement after Miss Stacy's widowhood, whereas Muriel would be just as happy on her own as to receive any match making help from anyone, let alone Rachel Lynne. Once Lynne sees Stacy with a man, all alone in a barn, even if that man is Matthew, all that talk of impropriety gets thrown in Miss Stacy's face. How dare she be working, out in the barn, like a man, with a man that is not her husband.
Marilla is afraid of losing Anne, now that she loves her so much, which will have Marilla acting out in all the wrong ways, but she can hear very plainly how much Anne is praying for word that she was loved by her real parents once upon a time.
To top it all off, we have the character of Sebastian (new to this adaptation) having a not so sweet second episode. He has a step son to learn how to handle, one who feels like his mother has found her do-over in new baby daughter and husband, and this young man sees with his own eyes the farm and house where his mother now lives with her new family, including Gilbert, a white boy…away from the black neighbourhood in the area known as "the bog".
Elijah is not dealing too well with having a new baby sister and stepfather, bringing all his pain and his coping mechanisms, which primarily include alcohol and saying things he doesn't really probably even mean, throwing insults at his own mother and accusing his mother's husband of having an alternate plan to get rid of their new white friend and roommate, to take over the land. Sebastian is disgusted by the suggestion and the two almost come to blows.
By the morning, all Gilbert's tangible, valuable memories of his dead father have been taken from the room and Elijah is gone. This family stuff is hard in any century.

Ahead By a Century:
I am back with my Anne with an E updates (season 3), after skipping this writing ritual for all of last season's events.
It starts with a girl and her horse, Anne and Belle riding through the snow. … Pine cones. Silver coins. Anne turns 16 and desires to discover her lineage.
I've been long drawn to stories like Harry Potter, Frodo in Lord of the Rings, and Anne of Green Gables because the life of an orphaned character is so far from my own reality.
I may wonder sometimes about my ancestors, though at least I know of them, and I have always had present and supportive parents around. I wondered about those who never knew that kind of security and/or love.
It starts with Anne and Bell. It goes into the theme song for the show, a Tragically Hip hit that denotes the time period of Anne, as I sit here in 2019 and love this adaptation of the classic Green Gables story.
Ahead by a Century – The Tragically Hip / Anne with an E-Theme
One year ago this day I was on Prince Edward Island. I miss PEI in September as I watch this first episode of season three, expecting and seeing ads for Find Your Island with PEI Tourism making me recall it all. What a special place, an island (seen visually in red and green for many) but forever trapped in my head and heart as the setting for tragical events in a beautiful place, surrounded by water.
Sad that time moves on, even after the death of the lead singer of song Ahead By A Century, as I watch this series…from a time more than a century ago and I think of Gord's work for connection with all who share this land before he died.
Anne and the girls watch the boys play hockey on a frozen pond and soon boys are declaring their intentions toward the girls. This is a timeless ritual, though somewhat changed in 100 years. Anne and Gilbert are meant to end up together, of course (poor Ruby), even if now it's nothing but misunderstandings and awkward teenage encounters in the schoolroom. They will have their time, but in the meantime, brief interactions that mark a future love.
For now, as a newly sixteen-year-old Anne, she is the Bride of Adventure in her mind and that will and must suffice for now.
When season two premiered, we were introduced to Afro-Caribbean character, Sebastian, a new friend Gilbert has made far from Avonlea. Nothing like this exists in the 80's series so many worship. I love both now, for different reasons, but Representation matters.
Creator of this update:
"I was troubled by the lack of diversity in the book, especially since Canada is such a diverse nation, both then and now," she said.
And so, of course the novel was written in a different time, but it's the 21st century now and the changes have only added to an already rich story with a lovely facelift.
Anne meets a young Indigenous girl and visits her community. The white people (Christians) stay separate from other groups then, but this inclusion started episode one of season three off right. I hope the friendship between the two girls continues.
Anne is open to meeting and making new friends and that's all there is to it. She is supposed to represent the kind of openness of heart and mind that so many lack, then and now.
The scenes with Sebastian (Bash) and his wife Mary and their new baby girl made an already sweet episode even sweeter. Love scene between the still newly married couple made me grin, wanting love for others, fictional or no.
I have high hopes for this new season on CBC here in Canada, (to appear on Netflix in the new year).
That's it for this instalment of Ahead by a Century, though most don't have any knowledge or interest in the world of Anne, either Montgomery's original creation or this re-imagining for a new century, but I'll keep writing them anyway.
Here's to all the Anne and Gilbert fans out there. What will this new season bring in the journey of their relationship?
How to be happy and content with oneself and still the possibility of finding true love with another?
I ask myself those last questions, those I posed after Season Three, Episode One, to myself all the time.
Also, I decided to go from most recent episode re-cap to the previous week's recap here on the blog. I will return with Episode Three next week, here, but I've moved from Facebook to this blog because I want to catalog these and yet most people on Facebook know nothing of Anne with an E and could really care less and won't bother to read, especially the longer my recaps end up being.
Maybe, after reading my recap here and after checking out the scene from YouTube I included above, both fans of the original Anne story and non fans alike might be curious enough to watch an episode. I say, to Anne fans everywhere, give this new adaptation a chance. I didn't regret it. You might not either.

"January so far has been a month of cold gray days, with an occasional storm whirling across the harbor and filling Spook's Lane with drifts. But last night we had a silver thaw and today the sun shone. My maple grove was a place of unimaginable splendors. Even the commonplaces had been made lovely. Every bit of wire fencing was a wonder of crystal lace."
Letter from Anne to Gilbert ANNE OF WINDY POPLARS
Though I took a few weeks break, I am still full of gratitude and I am finishing off the month, looking ahead to February and beyond.
I am thankful for the sound of Canada geese out my window.
I heard them out in the cold January sky, just as I heard sad news from the literary world, and something about it felt less coincidental and more like a sign of a poet leaving this world.
I am thankful for poetry like that of Mary Oliver and her love of nature and the natural world, which she showed through her poems.
I am thankful for orchestral musicians and their conductor who keep up and play the beautiful music of a Harry Potter soundtrack, as I watched the movie on the big screen with a bunch of other crazed HP fans.
I am thankful for snow that's like cotton balls, like the kind that makes me feel its cold, but also like maybe I'm living inside of one of those snow globes.
I am thankful for the energy of a productive violin lesson where I know why it is I love the instrument so much.
I am thankful for a few minutes of time with my niece playing beside me, even while on the phone. She is the sweetest, coming and sitting beside me and cuddling, then hiding under the blanket.
I am thankful for our thing together where I sing the Elton John line: I'm still standing … and she then sings the next part, yeah yeah yeah.
As cute as it is that she now does high fives and fist bumps, that's more of a silent action, whereas the singing is an audible one.
I am thankful for new Dido music:
I am thankful for classic love songs, duets, and for beautiful musical talent.
Lots of sadness in the music world, with love song guru James Ingram dying and I end off January with one more glimpse of the voice we lost, one year ago:
RIP to them both and to Mary Oliver too.
I am thankful for the end of January and February arriving, a short month (my birthday month) now beginning.
Well, if I am living inside of a snow globe, time to shake things up! Bye bye January and hello February to come.
The Garden In Winter
Frosty-white and cold it lies
Underneath the fretful skies;
Snowflakes flutter where the red
Banners of the poppies spread,
And the drifts are wide and deep
Where the lilies fell asleep.
But the sunsets o'er it throw
Flame-like splendor, lucent glow,
And the moonshine makes it gleam
Like a wonderland of dream,
And the sharp winds all the day
Pipe and whistle shrilly gay.
Safe beneath the snowdrifts lie
Rainbow buds of by-and-by;
In the long, sweet days of spring
Music of bluebells shall ring,
And its faintly golden cup
Many a primrose will hold up.
Though the winds are keen and chill
Roses' hearts are beating still,
And the garden tranquilly
Dreams of happy hours to be
In the summer days of blue
All its dreamings will come true."

Happy birthday to L.M. Montgomery, who was born 144 years ago today!
"'Old Prince Edward Island' is a good place in which to be born – a good place in which to spend a childhood. I can think of none better. We Prince Edward Islanders are a loyal race. In our secret soul we believe that there is no place like the little Province that gave us birth."
– L.M. Montgomery, The Alpine Path: the Story of My Career

I'm writing this on the final day of November, even though this post is dated days earlier. I missed last week's
and I'm too lazy to try to figure out how to reset dates in WP and I don't want to bother starting a new entry for this. It works as is.
I'm thankful for my father on his 63rd birthday.
I'm thankful for my favourite writer on what would have been hers too.
Caption: The bedroom she was born in.
I got to visit that house when I was in Prince Edward Island in September.
I love that my favourite writer and my favourite father share this day.
I'm thankful for last weekend, a trial run of the 2018 KFC (Kijewski family Christmas) as we like to call it.
Caption: Grandpa and Mya watching gingerbread houses being decorated.
I'm thankful for a night out at the movies with siblings.
I'm thankful for brownies.
I'm thankful for a second
Fantastic Beasts film,
where more of the world leading to Harry Potter was revealed.
I'm thankful for another episode of
where we interview (or he us) a lifelong friend and brother.
I'm thankful for an unforgettable night of stories performed from the heart.
I am standing up, in front of an audience, to tell my story, a dying art.
I'm thankful four of my family members could be there to see me do that.
I'm thankful for a doctor who goes above and beyond.

and I thought it fit because we all have a hunger to be heard.
Finally, RIP Bush Senior.
http://mentalfloss.com/article/21750/4-simpsons-controversies-didnt-end-lawsuits
The Simpsons has made fun of all recent Presidents (from Nixon on) and has taken a few shots at some of the famous and forgotten ones who came before, but they have a special relationship with Bush Sr. Surprisingly, this began with Barbara, who in a 1990 interview with People , said The Simpsons was "the dumbest thing [she] had ever seen." The writers at the show had Marge send off a letter defending her family (and implying that certainly Washington had some dumber people/things to see). Mrs. Bush wrote a prompt, polite response.
The next year, 1991, the Bushes were featured in "Mr. Lisa Goes to Washington." Barbara gave a private tour of her bathroom and George moved decisively to remove a corrupt congressman when he learned through the pipeline that "a little girl [was] losing faith in democracy."
The real controversy began January 27th, 1992, when Bush declared to a meeting of the National Religious Broadcasters: "We are going to keep on trying to strengthen the American family, to make American families a lot more like the Waltons and a lot less like the Simpsons." The Simpsons quickly wrote and animated a new sequence for "Stark Raving Dad," which would be rerun three days later. Bart and his family watch the clip of Bush's speech and Bart replies, "Hey, we're just like the Waltons. We're praying for an end of the depression, too."
It was not until four years later that The Simpsons got the final word—in "Two Bad Neighbors," George and Barbara move in across the street to the Simpsons. While George immediately takes a liking to Ned Flanders, he dislikes Bart, whom he sees as disrespectful.
Bush: You know, in my day, little boys didn't call their elders by their first names. block quote level 1block quote level 1
Bart: Yeah, well, welcome to the 20th century, George. block quote level 1block quote level 1
The episode casts Bart as Dennis the Menace and George as cranky Mr. Wilson until Bart accidentally destroys Bush's hand-typed memoirs, in which he claims, "And since I'd achieved all my goals as President in one term, there was no need for a second."
Bush spanks Bart and won't apologize for interfering with Homer's parenting. This leads to an escalation of tension and pranks until the inevitable fistfight in the sewer. The Bushes move away after Barbara forces Bush to apologize in front of Mikhail Gorbachev (after which Homer demands an apology "for the tax hike"). Homer gets along much better with his next neighbor, Gerald Ford.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two_Bad_Neighbors
It's satire and could be seen as mocking. I don't approve of politicians talking about family values though, in order to win an election, as to be political you can't possibly totally practice all that you preach. Still, I see being made into an episode as an honour and I show it as a goodbye to a man who lived a good long life:
I had to explore this, from a strictly cultural (Simpsons) point of view, because people are complicated. This show hasn't been for everyone, a certain generation a lot less likely, but it is sad to have no sense of humour.
A man who was in charge to be forever known as the American's With Disabilities Act president will be remembered for it. He was someone's husband, father, and grandfather. He made decisions that not everyone would have agreed on, but he was more of a respected politician than what the US has as POTUS at the moment, by a long long shot.

March weather patterns have introduced me to something known as
thundersnow
as an occurrence of the season.
Oh March…silly month.
This week's thankful post I want to dedicate to women and those who've made my life with kidney disease as good as it is now.
Even if I think, locally and in politics, women lost, again, to men. Still, I am thankful for ten other things, at least.
I'm thankful I got to know my uncle.
Before my list of intelligent, strong, and brave women can commence, I must pay tribute here to an one-of-a-kind man.
I wouldn't start off a post like this normally, in any other case, but my uncle died at the start of the week, after suffering a stroke and I wanted to acknowledge him in my TToT list.
He was my father's older sister's partner and he was like no one else I've ever met.
He invited my family and I into his home, not knowing us, and let us return several times. We grew closer and always enjoyed catching up.
He is gone and it's the end of an era. RIP Uncle Jim.
I'm thankful for audio described Downton Abbey episodes.
Lots of strong women in that series, even and especially for the time they were living in, even as fictional characters that represented many women who were real.
I'm thankful everything I took from the show helped me take some necessary and tough steps in my own life.
From 1925, to remembering a hard decision made this day back in 2011 to 2018 and all.
I'm thankful for the progress made since 1964 in Canada.
I'm thankful for a history lesson brought to life and with powerful true words from the author.
She battled depression, rejection, and sexism, only to write Anne of Green Gables and nineteen other novels in her lifetime.

Whether it's the early 20th century, in the UK or in Canada, it couldn't have been so easy to speak out about women's rights. For Lucy Maud Montgomery, she had a lot up against her and yet she created a totally feminist character in Anne Shirley and in dozens of other strong female characters throughout her career as an author is a testament to who she was.
I'm also thankful, then, for female writers and scholars in today's world, those who have written extensively on the women of history, here in Canada and beyond.
I'm thankful for a Canadian female from the country's history books (or should be and now will be) appearing on the $10 bill.
http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/nova-scotia/viola-desmond-10-unveiled-1.4567290
I'm thankful for the females winning big at the 2018 Canadian Screen Awards.
Margaret Atwood won an award for the mini series Alias Grace being adapted to television. The new Anne program won an award for best television drama series.
I love/loved both.
I'm thankful for a powerful female voice from a friend.

Humbug: Review of "The Man Who Invented Christmas" #Humbug #AChristmasCarol #Review #SoCS
December 23, 2017 herheadacheCharles Dickens, Christmas, compassion, England, fame, family, mystery, North America, poverty, writing 2 Comments
yuletide and humbug for you
on Christmas Eve Eve, or however one might say that.
And now, here we are, and you'll forgive me if it's now officially Christmas Eve. I am about to watch A Christmas Carol with my father, a Christmas Eve tradition.
Please enjoy this brief summary/review of the tale of the man who came up with the story in the first place.
Light in places, nearing the absurd, but it took me back to the times, those days.
The year was 1843 and Charles Dickens was under pressure to come up with his next big hit. He'd toured the United States of America and the crowds there loved him, but Christmas was coming and he wanted a seasonal story for the ages.
He swore he could come up with one in a matter of months/weeks.
His home was filled with beautiful new things, purchased from his previous book's success, and a family full of life. The more he pressed himself to come up with a Christmas tale, the more consumed by it he became.
His household employed a young Irish woman who loved to tell the children old Irish ghost stories. What a thing to share at Christmas I say.
Ghosts at Christmas…well I never!
Charles overheard her telling on of these tales and ran with it and a story of an old miser being visited by three spirits came to life in his head and soon onto the page.
Literally, it came to life, as soon I was confused, as a viewer without sight or an audio track to explain.
Scrooge was there and Dickens was talking out loud. Soon, his room was spread out with papers and his characters, talking to him.
Tiny Tim was apparently inspired by a real life nephew who was ill and whose progress was uncertain when the family came to visit the Dickens' home.
How did A Christmas Carol come to be? – BBC
Charles deals with a father who was the root of many of his son's issues, growing up poor and with debts owed. Charles fears the fame drying up and his own future debt, making his own family suffer the way he did as a boy.
His memories of going to a poorhouse and having to work in a factory, being teased by other boys, and all this with deadlines for what was shaping up to become A Christmas Carol.
So, we all know the book does get written, obviously. No mystery there. He did it when he was younger than I am now. Times were different then, or not so much as we'd think. This story still applies.
I only read it (the novel that is), for the first time, a few years ago. To me, the title of this film is apt, as Charles Dickens, in many ways, was the inventor of Christmas, to me, a lot more recent than two thousand years.
My father has been watching that old version of the classic story, the film, since my childhood. When once I couldn't quite grasp the whole story, finding it boring in parts, I now treasure it for its lessons on compassion and humanity.
I can think of a few souls, in need of a lesson on mistakes of the past that cannot be undone, realities of the present in other places and in the lives of other people, and the chances still available in the future to make things better.
This film told a behind-the-scenes story that made for a pleasant and sometimes gritty glimpse into poverty and one's life work, in this case being writing. Such a career and success can dry up as fast as from whence it came.
I am inspired, as a writer myself, by a story created, as Charles did, in those stories that span the test of time, from England to North America and around the world.
I'd add this one to any list of movies to view around the Christmas season, for sure.
Humbug and Scrooge to view, for you.
"And God bless us, everyone!"
The Real Reason Charles Dickens Wrote A Christmas Carol – Time
I once mistook the author's main character for the author himself. Charles Dickens was no humbug!
You'll forgive me, Mr. Dickens sir, won't you?
Yule tidings to you all.

TToT: Managing The Mischief of Life – Zipping Along #WildPlayNiagara #HarryPotter20 #10Thankful
June 26, 2017 herheadachediversity, faith, Harry Potter, J. K. Rowling, love, magic, nature, Niagara Falls, religion, writing, zip lining 12 Comments
It's over and done with. As the month of June comes to a close, so does my month long celebration of twenty years since my kidney transplant.
It's like I've reached some invisible, yet important marker: Now what?
Why not a photo of what is wild and free? (Wild Horses) This makes me think of the expression: "Wild horses could not drag me away from you." Wow. Just Wow is all I have to say.
Well, there is another event that would shape my life going forward, that took place in 1997, though I had no idea of it occurring.
Read ahead for more on the 20th anniversary of magic as I now know it.
Before I continue, I am including this ink here, rather than trying to add two posts to the linkup.
A Bold Sea of Red – Hiraeth
Check it out if you want to see a few more photos. I had trouble posting because of a few of them causing trouble. The program wouldn't accept them and I missed the TToT deadline for last week.
I thought about making this a entirely HarryPotter20 thankful post, but I have so many more things to be thankful for this week.
I am thankful for summer solstice.
I got to be in the Yukon just before summer was quite official and it opened my eyes to the differences of the latitude I may be at, all in my own country, and how the sun affects us all.
I'm thankful for a most unexpected gift of a writing deadline extension.
I am writing a short story, one I want to hopefully help move forward our ideas of diverse characters and stories.
Then things got away from me in this chaotic month and the deadline for this was coming up fast.
Suddenly, as I was about to give up because my story wasn't complete in time, I read about an extension the contest decided on.
I now have until the end of the week and the pressure is mounting once again. I know I can meet that challenge, thanks to something I know I won't always be able to count on magically appearing when I'm feeling I won't make the deadline set.
I am thankful for Niagara Falls.
I may have included this before, but once again it surprises and delights me.
I got to experience it from a entirely new vantage point, going along it on a zip line.
It constantly takes my breath away.
I'm thankful for my brother who captures everything I now miss, with his love for photos, that makes me want to cry every time I think about it.
Don't misunderstand. I am grateful for him, but I feel everything I can not see is the beauty he expertly and lovingly captures with his camera.
I do appreciate the attention he put into documenting our zip lining day in pictures. He will work on them, to make them the best they can be in his eyes, and I will write about what June 24th, 2017 meant to me, as soon as I get through a few other pressing deadlines in these next few weeks.
I am thankful for everyone who took the time out to come with me, to help me celebrate.
They overcame any reservations they may have had and they went zipping down that wire with me.
They even put up with a sudden downpour/hailstorm with me on our way back.
I am thankful said weather event decided to make an appearance right after we completed our mission.
We were all separated, into groups from our bigger group of fifteen, kids in strollers included.
Some of us took shelter inside arcades and some were caught out in it. I was under an awning, with my father and brother-in-law and the two kids, and we just barely stayed dry, but were already soaked anyway.
Dark clouds are a part of life. If you've never been soaked and caught in a rainstorm, you've not experienced the magic of nature in its entirety.
I am thankful for my mother and my niece and nephew's other grandma for staying down on the ground to watch the kids.
I know they had their hands full, more than one bathroom visit included.
I am thankful for the last twenty years.
In that time: I got my kidney and Harry Potter was written.
What more than that could I want/need?
I am thankful for what Harry Potter has brought into my life.
20 years later, Harry Potter's power is still strong (Toronto Star)
It all comes down to the magic. I can venture through adulthood without sacrificing my childlike view of the world, the one I wish was and work for.
J.K. Rowling has had amazing success with the books ever since. That must be a difficult load to carry, the pressure that goes along with success like Harry Potter has brought. On the other hand, it has brought her many great things as a result.
https://wearelumos.org
I sometimes want to keep Harry Potter to myself and then I want to hear how it has touched other reader's lives like it has mine.
We can share in it. Magic is ageless and timeless and this story gives me hope and brings me a kind of faith, I suppose as a religion in a way. This may sound strange to those who never did read Harry Potter, but it feels as real as anything, though it stands as the most successful of fictional worlds.
I realize it means considerably less to some and to some nothing at all, only a book, not representing everyone. I am glad books are constantly being written that could bring people the kind of joy this one has brought me.
Thankful to my friend Kerra for directing me
as I explore diversity in my own and other stories.
Now,onto big decisions for my future. There was a discussion about making some changes. I want to share photos here, for my sighted viewers, but recently was having some trouble with that. Also, it was discussed whether me publishing my pictures here makes them property of WP and if I should move all my writing to a site all my own. I am thankful I have a friend who knows what he's talking about, even a bit, when it comes to all that.

Anne with an E {review}
May 17, 2017 herheadacheBreaking Bad 2 Comments
If you were a fan of Breaking Bad, give this show a shot. I am interested in all reviews and perspectives on my favourite Red headed heroine. And yes, the audio descriptions really do help.
Adventures in Low Vision
Note: No major spoilers in this review of Anne with an E. It discusses only the first two episodes of the seven part series.
Listening as Mom read chapters from Anne of Green Gables at bedtime is a cherished childhood memory. Old enough (8 or 9?) to read L. M. Montgomery's book myself, I appreciated the portioned delivery. It made it last.
My sister and I loved watching Anne productions, Anne of Avonlea, the sequel to the wildly popular Anne of Green Gables starring Megan Follows as well as the later Avonlea series broadcast on the Disney channel. It may have been why my parents caved for the cable channel. I'm sure we begged. I liked hearing about the spunky orphan Anne Shirley and her adventures around beautiful Avonlea. I related to Anne's love of school and her frustrations with being bullied for uncontrollable factors like appearance. She didn't…

Last week I meant to share one picture, of the flowers we brought my sister after giving birth to my new niece, but I somehow ended up posting only the flowers.
Nothing wrong with flowers, so that one becomes "the flower flower flower flower post".
I am still thankful for the big things, for eight pound baby girls, but will sprinkle in a few smaller items, if I can as well.
I am thankful for new music.
Lorde – Green Light
I am thankful for Mya Lynne and for my violin.
Haha. Get it?
I'm thankful that I went for it and submitted the travel memoir piece I wrote in Mexico, about my evening with the mariachis, to
CBC Literary Prizes.
I spent all of February, editing madly, and I would say I am proud of what I sent in. Now for the long wait.
I'm thankful to have made contact this week and am now in communication, by email, with the man I met in Mexico. He is doing amazing things with his life.
Everyone Has A Disability
We both know a little something about living with a disability and I appreciate his perspective.
I'm thankful for the bond already forming between my nephew and niece.
Now, anytime I go to visit them, he always starts by saying, "Auntie Kerry, do you see my baby sister?"
Now that's the question of one proud big brother.
I am thankful I got to read the words of a talented family member. He wrote a kickass spoken word piece about his wife and surprised her with it for her birthday last weekend.
It's amazing to me that someone can love another person like that.
I wish I could have heard it in person, but I read the words and his writing was so sweet and so creatively epic.
Proud and thankful to be related to those two.
I would share it, but I'm not sure they'd want me to. Let's just say, the word "citadel" is used at one point. It's a song about a strong and one-of-a-kind woman. That's spot on.
Ed Sheeran – Eraser (Live)
This new live Ed Sheeran song is another example of music, but with spoken word, poetry thrown in the mix.
I'm thankful for winter weather, while it's still winter.
We went from above seasonal and warm temperatures at the beginning of the week and we're ending it back firmly in winter, but spring is only officially a few weeks away now. The end and a new beginning, as many think of the arrival of spring, is on its way.
I enjoy a chilled night, without a harsh wind preferably, and feeling the gentle sprinkling of snowflakes coming down around me in the air. I'm going to miss that crunching noise when I walk outside in the packed snow underfoot.
I wish everyone could see that winter is supposed to be cold, to have snow, and to not show such love for the climate change that has an effect on nature and wildlife, and not in a good way. We should think about them a little more and less about our temporary discomforts. I know it's hard. I don't like freezing either, in the moment. But I do care about species such as butterflies and bees who pollinate. Those guys need spring to come in its own time. We shouldn't try to rush it just because we are sick and tired of winter.
In the comments for TToT this week I say where I am from and what I love about living here. I love the four seasons we in Canada are lucky to experience. I grumble and groan my share, when I am shivering or sweating, but I want the planet to maintain itself, for my nieces and nephews, for a long long time to come.
The cousin and his wife I listed above, as a thankful, they work with nature and the environment. They've seen signs that aren't good signs. They worry because they see it up close. They've taught me a lot.
I am thankful for people like them, doing all they can, to teach about the natural world we often neglect.
I'm thankful for the feeling of holding a baby.
She is such a contented baby too. As long as she's not hungry, she's happy to sleep a lot.
For me, I can feel disgusted with things happening in the world or whatever, but then I hold her and I feel the slight pressure of her in my arms and her breathing as she sleeps so still. It's peaceful.
I then watch my nephew, all his energy, and how big he is. I am thankful for these children, at the separate ages that they are, and I know they grow so fast.
I am thankful for books and the freedom to read any book I want to.
Green Eggs and Ham by Dr. Seuss (read by Neil Gaiman)
I have shared stories read by Neil Gaiman here in the past. I enjoy his readings.
Happy Birthday Dr. Seuss.

Mapping as Metaphor: Part Two
March 1, 2017 herheadache Leave a comment
"There are a hundred ways to tell the story of a single life." – Also, check out the first part of this interview. Plenty of insights to be gained.
Part two of Brevity assistant editor Alexis Paige's consideration of place, grief, and the river as metaphor, talking with Angela Palm, author of Riverine: A Memoir From Anywhere But Here, winner of the Graywolf Press Nonfiction Prize. [Part One can be found here]:
PAIGE: There's a powerful depiction of sexual assault in the book. The scene struck me most for its brevity and omissions, for what did and didn't make the page. Can you talk about how you approached writing the scene and why? Can you describe your decisions about what to include and what not to include, and how you came to approach the moment tonally?
PALM: I didn't want the narrative to become about that particular violence, but instead wanted the incident to appear in the book as one link in a chain of violence, wherein accumulation would be more powerful than individual acts. Because that was my…

Pain, especially chronic pain, is a major health care problem, a fact that has precipitated a recent dramatic expansion in pain-related research efforts. This revised edition of Dr Welden Bell's classic text has been updated to incorporate the latest findings from these studies, including advanced understanding of the neurophysiology and central processing of pain and the resulting changes to diagnostic, classification, and treatment guidelines.
Though comprehensive diagnosis and treatment planning set the stage for effective orthodontic treatment, it is a clear understanding of the fundamental biomechanical principles behind orthodontic force that allows the clinician to design the most favorable appliances and systems. Correct application of the principles of biomechanics leads to highly efficient and successful orthodontic treatment; a lack of proper understanding produces ineffectual systems that may even lead to collateral tissue damage.
This comprehensive evidence-based guide to bruxism provides answers to many questions arising in everyday dental practice. The first part reviews general bruxism knowledge as well as guidelines for diagnosis, sleep physiology, etiology, peripheral and emotional factors, movement disorders, and bruxism in children. The second part is devoted to the effects of bruxism on the different components of the masticatory system and explores its relationship to pain.
Fabrication of posterior prosthetic teeth is an art that requires technicians to reproduce the minute details of occlusal form using difficult methods of wax-up. Written for students as well as experienced clinicians, this unique atlas will change the way that technicians wax up teeth. It guides readers, step-by-step, through the author's revolutionary wax-up technique to re-create the complex morphology of premolar and molar teeth.
In the established tradition of the Clinical Success series, this succinct and easy-to-read book provides practitioners with a solid foundation for daily clinical use of the Invisalign system. The author introduces the reader to essentials of Invisalign treatment, from the basic biomechanics of thermoformed plastic aligners to the the ClinCheck 3D simulation treatment planning software, which allows the clinician to program in advance the velocity and direction of tooth movements; amount and frequency of force; anchorage; and available space necessary for the planned movements.
Advancements in restorative material formulations and adhesive technology have expanded the treatment possibilities for the clinician and technician and provided simpler, more conservative, and more economical solutions to many restorative and esthetic challenges. This book demonstrates these solutions step-by-step through the presentation of everyday clinical situations, relying on the scientific knowledge and clinical and laboratory expertise of an international team of masters.
When dental practitioners lack training in the art and science of color, the deficiency often becomes glaringly evident in the quality of their restorative work. This book was written to simplify the study of color and help dentists communicate shade easily and accurately. It begins by presenting the basics of color theory within the context of esthetic dentistry and the factors that affect the transmission and perception of color.
Over the past two decades, the Fundamentals of Operative Dentistry has become one of the most trusted textbooks on clinical restorative dentistry. By integrating time-tested methods with recent scientific innovation, the authors promote sound concepts for predictable conservative techniques.
This book documents the applicability and benefits of immediate loading in both completely and partially edentulous patients, including the ideal indications, clinical parameters, specific treatment protocols, therapeutic results, and medico legal implications. This innovation in implant therapy increases operative efficiency, reduces treatment time, minimizes the invasiveness of surgery, and offers clear psychologic and social advantages for patients.
The current emphasis on patient-centered medicine necessitates revision of the diagnostic and therapeutic process toward an integrated treatment plan that promotes collaboration among the specialties as well as the patient's active participation. This text describes how to implement such a treatment plan for patients requiring implant treatment in an area of esthetic and/or functional interest.
Effective wire bending techniques that are customized to each individual patient make orthodontic treatment more efficient and can reduce treatment time. The author of this manual promotes precise, intuitive bending and presents the essential components and techniques of customized wire bending step-by-step, including trimming of casts; selection and proper manipulation of pliers; the first-order bends (in or out), second-order bends (up or down), and third-order bends (torque); and optimal methods of adjustment to be used during orthodontic treatment. Technical images and case presentations illustrate each step of the process to ensure maximum comprehension. A must-have guide for orthodontic residents and practitioners alike.
Taking an idea originated at the Con sensus Conference on Maxil lary Sinus of the Italian Society of Oral Surgery in 2001, the authors have created a text that brings together the most recent scientific dis cov eries and the most inno vative clini cal proto cols, together with the possible alternatives to maxillary sinus aug mentation techniques.
This textbook is both a practical and theoretic reference book for the clinical use of orthodontic implants. The standard concepts of mini-screw selection and placement in various clinical situations are presented for easy incorporation into everyday practice. In addition, solutions to specific orthodontic problems are illustrated through relevant clinical examples and detailed in a thorough discussion of required protocols, indications and contraindications, potential risks, and clinical problem solving.
To attain a natural look in ceramic restorations, the technician must be able to successfully reproduce three critical aspects of a natural tooth: single-tooth morphology, tooth alignment, and natural tooth color.
In this stunning book, the authors blend scientific knowledge and practical experience to provide a comprehensive overview of the principles, indications, and clinical techniques of plastic-esthetic periodontal and implant microsurgery, focusing especially on minimal soft tissue trauma and maximally perfect wound closure. Microsurgery provides clinically relevant advantages over conventional macrosurgical concepts for regenerative and plastic-esthetic periodontal surgery, especially in the all-important esthetic zone.
The science and art of implant dentistry encompasses both complex surgical protocols and advanced prosthodontics, and no beginner can achieve excellence in this discipline without a clear understanding of the step-by-step guidelines. This established textbook, written by clinicians for clinicians, presents evidence-based protocols and focuses on the technical skill and practical craftsmanship that are essential to predictable outcomes in implant placement, augmentation, and restoration.
Achieving a favorable esthetic and functional prosthetic outcome requires progression through an intricate sequence of clinical steps. The first section of this beautifully illustrated, highly practical book guides the dental practitioner through each of these steps in the treatment of various common clinical situations. The second part addresses the technical and esthetic aspects of dental laboratory techniques, covering precision in metals and new and conventional ceramics as well as the esthetic realization of prosthetic devices, including diagnostic waxups, communication with patients and clinicians, color matching, and the fabrication of ceramic restorations. Throughout the book, the authors advocate a philosophy emphasizing close clinician-technician collaboration and cooperation, and they are strong proponents of the use of the microscope in most dental procedures.
This comprehensive update of a classic text presents the latest research on the dental pulp and its interaction with other tissues, highlighting its central role in both local and systemic health. The second edition has been completely revised to incorporate new chapters featuring the most topical issues in research and clinical practice, including developments in stem cell research and pulpodentin regeneration, the effects of the aging process on the pulp, and the interdependent relationship of the pulp and restorative dental procedures.
This multidisciplinary textbook presents a unique approach to diagnosis and management of the various temporomandibular disorders. Written by a large group of eminent researchers and clinicians, it links current scientific concepts of basic anatomy, physiology, biomechanics, and pathology of the temporomandibular joint with specific diagnostic and treatment protocols that are based on sound clinical data. Thus, in keeping with the current thrust in medicine and dentistry, the book provides access to the best available evidence so that clinicians can make informed rather than empirical decisions about what is appropriate therapy. Where lack of data or rapid changes in a particular discipline do not allow for evidence-based conclusions or recommendations, the book highlights the areas of agreement and disagreement in order to expose the deficiencies in our present knowledge base. In a field of treatment long associated with controversy, this book educates readers about which current practices of diagnosis and treatment are strongly supported by scientific research and which are supported only by practical experience and/or anecdotal evidence.
Introduced in 1978, the Alexander Discipline represents a unique approach to orthodontic treatment; today, legions of clinicians around the world apply its 20 master principles in their practices. An outgrowth of the Tweed technique, these basic principles have been developed empirically over many years in the author's own practice. Complete records of patients treated by the author dating back 25 years are presented to demonstrate specific results and the stability of treatment. This book will be of strong interest to anyone involved in the study or practice of orthodontics.
In the specialty of orthodontics, treatment results depend on the clinician's knowledge, manual dexterity, philosophy, and effort. This book highlights the lack of common scientific guidelines in orthodontic practice, advocating for the recognition and identification of such guidelines that work to place the teeth in positions that will produce the healthiest, most functional, most esthetic, and most stable results possible.
Transcrestal sinus floor elevation has become an increasingly popular procedure, particularly with the introduction of innovations targeted at minimally invasive techniques. However, recent reports cast doubt on the efficiency and predictable success of standard techniques. This book is intended to alert the reader to the shortcomings of some accepted techniques of transcrestal sinus floor elevation and provide a blueprint to help develop transcrestal sinus floor elevation into a surgical protocol that meets the general medical standards of a minimally invasive procedure.


Former Trump campaign manager Paul Manafort may have gift-wrapped a smoking gun in his upcoming trial by not bothering to learn a few basic computer skills.
Special prosecutor Robert Mueller filed a second indictment yesterday against Manafort and his associate Richard Gates, accusing them of multiple money-laundering charges. Allegedly, the pair falsified documents in order to help hide their overseas income.
One of the main pieces of evidence in their case? An email exchange between Gates and Manafort that only exists because Manafort couldn't be bothered to figure out how to turn a Word doc into a PDF.
So they emailed the document between themselves, leaving a paper trail, because Manafort couldn't do the five minutes of Googling it takes to find a conversion tutorial.
Update: This post previously stated the problem was converting a Word document into a PDF, while in fact it was the other way around. We regret the error.

With the help from some alumni members, Komma launched the Special Interest Group(s) (SIG). SIG stand for Special Interest Group and it is a group in which students and alumni can share their knowledge about a certain aspect of educational science. The first SIG is themed Digital Learning and can be found here. The goal of this group is for people to connect with others that share the interest in the field of digital learning. Anyone who feels like they would like to share or ask something can start a conversation in the online group. In the future, we will also organize an a face-to-face event in order to bring the group members together and let them get to know each other and their work better. We hope that many of you join, and that we can start some exciting conversations together!

Jim "Mattress Mack" McIngvale has always been known for his over-the-top promotional ideas and guerrilla advertising techniques. Just two weeks ago, he rewarded customers who guessed correctly that Denver and Seattle would end up in the Super Bowl with nearly $700,000 in furniture. For the actual "big game" (he couldn't call it the "Super Bowl" in his ads thanks to NFL restrictions on such things), he took it further, and it cost him ten times more.
This wager involved folks who were willing to spend $6,000 or more before 5 p.m. Sunday at Gallery Furniture stores. If they did and Seattle won (which, of course, it did), he would refund the money to those customers. According to reports, more than 1,100 people did and it cost the furniture store owner $7 million.
One might think this is a huge loss for Gallery Furniture, but this is a company that makes well over $100 million per year in annual revenue and is one of the most successful independent businesses in America, according to Businesseweek.com. Try to imagine for a moment if 110 people in the span of a week were willing to drop $6,000 each on recliners, theater seating and mattresses (all without the frustrating "back, back, back order slip"), hundreds of additional customers no doubt spent under the mark required for the bet.
Let's be clear, Mack is no dummy. To some, he might appear to be crazy, but the guy is a marketing genius and this was yet another example of how he used a holiday or sporting event to bring customers in the front door. And it isn't like he handed them cash. The markup on his furniture probably runs anywhere from 50 to 200 percent or more depending on what it is. Even though he refunded $7 million, this did not cost him that much, and, more important, he brought in customers who will no doubt become repeat business for his stores.
Additionally, he turned a time where shopping is traditionally slower post-holidays into a sizable chunk of revenue. Not so crazy after all.

Q: How to include a default parameter in my member functions? I am making a program with an object of class Date. When I am printing the date of my class to the screen there are three options Default (M/D/Y), Long (month, day year), and Two-Digit (mm/dd/yy). I have solved the code for each option but I am having trouble changing the format when I call my SetFormat() function. I want the default parameter of SetFormat to be 'D' so that when there is no specified parameter it is in the Default form, but when SetFormat() is called in main it switches forms.
This is part of my .cpp file:
void Date::Show()
{
        if (SetFormat('D'))
        {
            cout << month << '/' << day << '/' << year;
        }
        if (SetFormat('T'))
        {
            if(month < 10){
                cout << 0 << month << '/';
            }else
                cout << month << '/';
            if (day < 10) {
                cout << 0 << day << '/' << (year % 100);
            } else
                cout << day << '/' << (year % 100);
        }
        if (SetFormat('L'))
        {
            LongMonth();
            cout << " " << day << ", " << year;
        }
}

bool Date::SetFormat(char f)
{
    format = f;
    if (f == 'T')
        return true;
    if (f == 'D')
        return true;
    if (f == 'L')
        return true;
    else
        return false;
}

This is part of my .h file:
class Date{
public:
    explicit Date(int m = 1, int d = 1, int y = 2000);
    void Input();
    void Show();
    bool Set(int m, int d, int y);
    bool SetFormat(char f = 'D');

The program is kind of just ignoring my 'if' statements right now and when I call the function SetFormat() in main it prints all 3 formats backtobacktoback.

A: the SetFormat(char) function returns true for every option, so it will print each one in turn.

A: The problem is that you are using SetFormat() both as a "set" function as well as a "get" function. I suggest having two functions.
void SetFormat(char f);
char GetFormat() const;

and use them appropriately.
In Date::Show(), use GetFormat() or simply the value of member variable.
In main, use SetFormat().
void Date::Show()
{
   // Need only one of the two below.
   // char f = GetFormat();
   char f = format;
   if (f == 'D')
   {
      cout << month << '/' << day << '/' << year;
   }
   else if (f == 'T')
   {
      if(month < 10){
         cout << 0 << month << '/';
      }else
         cout << month << '/';
      if (day < 10) {
         cout << 0 << day << '/' << (year % 100);
      } else
         cout << day << '/' << (year % 100);
   }
   else if ( f == 'L')
   {
      LongMonth();
      cout << " " << day << ", " << year;
   }
}

void Date::SetFormat(char f)
{
   format = f;
}

char Date::GetFormat() const
{
   return format;
}

and in main:
Date date;
date.SetFormat('L');
date.Show();

Of course, you should checks in SetFormat() and Show() to make sure that the format  is valid and do something if that is not the case.

Utility regulators to grill new Arizona Public Service CEO on faulty rate tool
PHOENIX - Utility regulators are scheduled to question the new head of Arizona Public Service Wednesday as the state's largest electrical utility faces scrutiny for billing mistakes and political spending.
APS chief executive Jeff Guldner is likely to be grilled by the Arizona Corporation Commission about an online tool that was supposed to tell customers their cheapest power plan but instead steered about 12,000 people to higher-cost options.
The error incensed several members of the elected commission, who have demanded that the company answer for how the problem happened when APS discovered it and how the public can be confident in the information the company issues in the future. APS has taken the faulty tool offline, promised to fix it and said it will issue refunds to the affected customers.
"Ratepayers should not shoulder the cost for a company's management favors," Republican Commissioner Boyd Dunn wrote in a letter to the other four commissioners last month. "Companies will be held accountable for their poor business decisions."
Guldner is appearing before the commission for the first time since taking the helm at APS and its parent company, Pinnacle West Capital Corp., last month.
In September, commissioners lit into Guldner and other top APS executives, saying they schemed to control electricity regulation through lobbying and millions in political spending, growing wealthier while some of their customers struggled to pay their bills.
Commission Chairman Bob Burns, a Republican, pressed Guldner to commit to never getting involved in corporation commission campaigns during his tenure as CEO. Guldner demurred, saying he'd get back to the commissioner after he took charge.
APS has been a prolific spender on Arizona politics in the last decade. It acknowledged breaking with precedent in 2014 to spend $3.2 million on the 2014 commission races after refusing for years to confirm or deny its participation in the election of its regulator.
The utility also spent $4.1 million to influence its regulators' 2016 election and nearly $40 million to defeat a citizens' initiative last year that would have required that it get much more of its power from solar and other renewable sources. APS had previously acknowledged those contributions.
In 2017, with a majority of the commission elected with the help of APS funding, commissioners approved a rate increase for the utility. The rate hike has been intensely criticized after many customers saw their bills increase significantly more than the advertised average of 4.5%.
The company is seeking another rate increase in a proceeding that's still pending.

Winter flu outbreak could be severe with diminishing herd immunity against the virus
Dr. Marco Ho Hok-kung, deputy chief medical executive at Virtus Medical, said on Wednesday that a winter flu outbreak could be serious as Hong Kong sees a diminishing herd immunity against the virus.
His comments came as Hong Kong is set to ease some of its Covid rules from October 6, including raising the maximum number of restaurant diners from eight to twelve persons per table, while banquets will be allowed to have up to 240 people attending, compared with 120 now.
Ho said with citizens heading out for meals more frequently and removing their masks more often, there is a chance of a seasonal influenza outbreak.
He noted that citizens have had little chance of exposing themselves to the influenza viruses in recent years, a result attributed to citizens' strong anti-epidemic awareness due to Covid.
With herd immunity against the influenza viruses diminishing, it could be serious should there be an outbreak of the winter flu, he said, adding that citizens should get their flu jabs as soon as possible.
Meanwhile, starting Thursday, the Hospital Authority will provide free seasonal influenza vaccination to Hong Kong residents of eligible groups in phases.
The flu jabs will first be provided to patients seeking services at Hospital Authority clinics, including pediatric patients at high risk, elderly aged 65 or above, and persons with physical or intellectual disabilities.
As for other community-living elderly persons aged 65 or above, they can get the free flu jabs at 14 designated Elderly Health Centres of the Department of Health and general out-patient clinics of the Hospital Authority from October 24 onwards.
Meanwhile, starting tomorrow, Hong Kong residents aged 50 or above may choose to receive both Covid-19 vaccination and free seasonal influenza vaccination at Community Vaccination Centres in various districts, while those aged 6 to 36 months and 3 years to under 12 years may choose to receive both Covid-19 vaccination and free seasonal influenza vaccination at designated Maternal and Child Health Centres and Student Health Service Centres respectively when they make a reservation.

The Jameson Caskmates story all began when Jameson's head distiller and Franciscan Well's head brewer met in the local pub. A swapping of barrels between friends soon after resulted in Jameson Caskmates Stout Edition – triple distilled, blended Irish whiskey finished in craft stout seasoned barrels.
After Jameson Caskmates Stout global launch in 2015, they couldn't wait to try a new beer mate with our casks. After careful exploration, they had a hunch that a zesty Irish Pale Ale would be the perfect partner. So after loaning barrels to their brewery neighbours to make a Jameson Seasoned IPA, and the beer soaked barrels returned to the distillery full of new crisp, hoppy notes. The barrels were re-filled with Jameson and the wait began. Jameson's signature smoothness was still there, but rubbing shoulders with IPA introduced light hints of hops, fresh citrus and floral notes.
Just 2,000 bottles are available in Ireland so you'll have to be quick to get your hands on a bottle of Jameson Caskmates IPA Edition. It is available to buy or taste in O'Briens stores nationwide, at selected On-Trade partners in Dublin & Cork as well as the Jameson Distillery Bow Street and the Midleton Distillery.
"It's the combination of the two – science and art – that brings together the mastery of the process with the mystery of its humble ingredients." Head of Whiskey Science, Dave Quinn.
If Jameson's iconic taste and smoothness had a formula, the holder of it would be Head of Whiskey Science, David Quinn. A figure whose passion for Irish whiskey stems from his interest in the complexities of flavour and mood that make up the spirit, David joined the Midleton team over thirty years ago, and is now recognised as one of the most integral ingredients in the Distillery's mix. Although based in science, David's role also requires knowledge of the craft that goes into making Jameson. He analyses the very highest standards of pot still whiskey, while researching and developing the distillation process behind it.
This dedication to continual innovation and appreciation of the fundamental flavours and ingredients contained in each blend is integral to David's role, and is something that's at the very heart of what we do in the Distillery. He enjoys experiencing the subtleties, tones and textures of Midleton's prized output; "It's this indefinable nature that makes a reserve whiskey far more than the sum of its parts. Because we're always trying to make new and different styles of whiskeys, you learn very quickly what's important, what impacts on the final taste and flavour… and what doesn't". David's ability to combine a methodical, scientific approach with an appreciation of some of the more intangible elements is realised throughout the family of Jameson whiskeys, but perhaps most in the reliably smooth textures of Jameson Original. There are many elements required to make Ireland's most iconic whiskey, but it is David's role to ensure that they all come together to create that unmistakable Jameson taste. His contribution to the process could be described as smoothness personified.
You can meet Shane Long from Franciscan Well and Dave Quinn, Head of Whiskey Science at Totally Dublin's special Jameson Casemates IPA tasting at they Jameson Distillery on Thursday November 8. Limited tickets for this event are priced at €20 and available from Eventbrite.
