Arizona Based Rap Artist Jinxed of Money Influences Has a New EP Out Dubbed, "Money Influenced"
To one Jinxed of Money Influences who was born in Oakland, California before his family relocated to Tucson, Arizona when he was aged 13, the streets absolutely molded him! With life moving fast and still a teenager with a lot to learn, he made a few mistakes like getting nabbed and selling narcotics to undercover police officers which got him locked for 3 years. He is now a changed man, who is seeking to impact positively with his musical gifts, and he is a man of many gifts; he is phenomenally gifted working in his capacities as a producer, publisher, rapper, beat maker, sound engineer, composer, recording artist, and songwriter. He is also the co-founder of Money Influences All Production alongside his acquaintance and music partner Go Getta Fya Spitta.
Together with his associate Go Getta, Jinxed has a new project; the "Money Influenced" EP that has 5 original tracks with guest features from fellow rappers Nico and Gangsta Bone. This is a dollar-infused EP that has some priceless jams that will appeal to anyone who grew up during the golden era of street rap.
In the opening track, "Huuuuh" in which the duo featured lyrist Nico, there is certainly a lot to ingest both inside and outside of the lyricism; the beats are hypnotic and you can't help but reminisce in their old-school-inspired melodicism with the gentlemen on board on point to give you poetically worded lyrics you will never forget!
"We Back" featuring Gangsta Bone has a very engaging hook section that sees the duo exchange flows to engineer irresistible hooks that you find yourself almost waiting to feed your craving off of the intrigue.
"Life's Great" is one of those jams that you just want to move your body to- it is such a vibe and feels timeless and Jinxed and Go Getta really do something special to this masterpiece both in production and lyrical side to get you pumped up from the intro all the way to the outro!
There is so much for loyal rap heads to sink their teeth into from this ageless collection that is now available for streaming from your favorite streaming platforms; follow the attached link so as to stream, the "Money Influenced" EP in its entirety and find out which tracks pique your interest the most to add as favorite smash hits!

All bird migrations are fraught with danger – from the risk of not finding enough food, to facing stormy weather, and most importantly – trying not to be eaten along the way. Raptors such as peregrine falcons are the main predators of migratory birds, and huge flocks of congregating shorebirds can be easy pickings. In a new paper, researchers provide new evidence that shorebird species can adopt substantially different ways of dealing with this predation pressure.

BMG Production Music acquires Dynamic Music
July 20th 2020 at 9:06AM
BMG Production Music (BMGPM) has acquired the award-winning production music company Dynamic Music.
The deal marks an evolution of the relationship between BMG and Dynamic, following their global sub-publishing agreement in 2018. Since that deal, Dynamic's revenue has doubled, as the company secured 100-plus hours of music use across global television and radio stations from some 30,000 usages.
Dynamic Music has a 3,500-strong catalogue of tracks that have gained international media placements across TV, film, and advertising. Its repertoire spans genres from hip-hop, synthwave and future R&B, to neo-classical, Scandi noir, indie and folk, and includes albums written by the likes of The Shapeshifters, Kid Massive and Birdee, among others.
In 2014, Dynamic Music was co-founded in London by David Felton, Will Mills and Sharooz Raoofi, with Rachel Menzies joining as a director and overseeing the day-to-day running of the business.
John Clifford, EVP & global MD at BMGPM, said: "As BMGPM continues to grow, build and innovate with the best providers of production music in the world, bringing Dynamic Music into the fold of the company is an organic transition and recognition of the team's exceptional work."
Menzies added: "It's been an honour to grow and market the Dynamic catalogue over the years. I couldn't imagine a better home for the business than with the brilliant team at BMGPM."
Raoofi said: "Dynamic Music is dedicated to creating cutting-edge and forward-thinking music for media. The acquisition by BMGPM is a hugely exciting milestone in the journey of our business and for our team of writers. Its future is in great hands."
The Dynamic Music acquisition follows the announcement of recent BMGPM partnerships with ITV Studios and AI-powered music to video platform MatchTune.

INKAS mission is to provide resources to assist the Ivins Animal Shelter, as well as local non-profit animal rescue groups, in maintaining a no-kill policy.
Maintaining a no-kill policy means meeting the needs of homeless animals including those that might otherwise be deemed unadoptable. INKAS supplies specialty foods, medications and veterinary care. We also provide grooming, socialization and training. Basic necessities such as kennels, litter, litter boxes, bedding, harnesses, etc. are purchased. Assistance is given for capital improvement projects to non-profit facilities housing homeless animals.
INKAS supports animal shelters and rescues which have a no-kill policy. We support the Ivins Animal Shelter under the terms of a Memorandum of Understanding with the city of Ivins.
INKAS has recently made an increased financial commitment to keeping animals adoptable by underwriting the cost of professional dog training classes, and socialization visits to a professional exercise facility. We have also instituted a program of assistance to adopters who need some assistance with training their new furry family members. We have seen a good benefit from these expenditures in a way of successful adoptions, and the general welfare of the dogs, some of whom have had sad experiences before coming to the shelter. We think it's important to make them the best canine citizens they can be. In addition, of course, INKAS will continue to pay for all the various items and services that the shelter needs and requests in order to provide a loving and comfortable "waiting place" for the homeless animals until they find their forever homes.
Shop Chewy.com for the best pet supplies ranging from pet food, toys and treats to litter, aquariums, and pet supplements. Upon placing your first order with Chewy, INKAS will receive a one time donation.
Shop AmazonSmile (a website operated by Amazon with the same products, prices, and shopping features as smile.) and the AmazonSmile Foundation donates 0.5% of the price of your eligible products to the charitable organization of your choice (INKAS).


Shujun is one of many Agricultural deities that China has. Others include Di Jun, Houji, Shennong to name a few. Shujun specifically, is the god of farming and cultivation. He is also credited with the invention of using a draft animal such as oxen to pull a plow when tilling the fields.
An alternative to Shujun's story is that he is a cultural hero who descends from a line of emperors known as the Yellow Emperor or Huangdi.
Qiaorui – He is a famous craftsman who invented a number of different crafts such as the bell, boat, and a plow-like farm tool for people. Shujun has sometimes been identified with him.
The Yellow Emperor is a title of the dynasty who ruled China after the first defeated the last of the Flame Emperors or Yandi.
Huangdi – Also known as "The Yellow Emperor," was known to be a friend and fellow scholar with Shennong despite there being some 500 years' distance between the two. Both Huangdi and Shennong are said to have shared the alchemical secrets of medicine, immortality and making gold.
Shiji (Records of the Grand Historian) – By the 8th Century C.E. historian Sima Zhen, Shennong is a kinsman of the Yellow Emperor and the ancestor or patriarch of the Chinese. The Han Chinese regard both Shennong and the Yellow Emperor as their ancestors.
Aside from the Yellow Emperor, Shujun is also said to be related to Di Jun, or the Emperor Jun and Houji, a minister of Huangdi.
Alternatively, Shujun is the son of Houji. Sometimes Shujun is even Houji's nephew through his younger brother Taixi.
In either event, whether as son or nephew, Shujun takes Houji and/or Taixi's place with sowing a variety of different grains and the invention of the plowing with draft animals.

Seamus Justin Heaney, MRIA (; 13 April 1939 – 30 August 2013) was an Irish poet, playwright, translator and lecturer, and the recipient of the 1995 Nobel Prize in Literature.[1][2] In the early 1960s, he became a lecturer in Belfast after attending university there and began to publish poetry. He lived in Sandymount, Dublin, from 1972 until his death.[2][3][4]
Heaney was a professor at Harvard from 1981 to 1997 and its Poet in Residence from 1988 to 2006. From 1989 to 1994 he was also the Professor of Poetry at Oxford and in 1996 was made a Commandeur de l'Ordre des Arts et Lettres. Other awards that he received include the Geoffrey Faber Memorial Prize (1968), the E. M. Forster Award (1975), the PEN Translation Prize (1985), the Golden Wreath of Poetry (2001), T. S.

His literary papers are held by the National Library of Ireland.
Robert Lowell called him "the most important Irish poet since Yeats" and many others, including the academic John Sutherland, have echoed the sentiment that he was "the greatest poet of our age".[5][6] Robert Pinsky has stated that "with his wonderful gift of eye and ear Heaney has the gift of the story-teller".[7] Upon his death in 2013, The Independent described him as "probably the best-known poet in the world".[8]

From Mid-Term Break
Wearing a poppy bruise on the left temple,
He lay in the four foot box as in a cot.
No gaudy scars, the bumper knocked him clear.
A four foot box, a foot for every year.
from "Mid-term break",
Heaney was born on 13 April 1939, at the family farmhouse called Mossbawn,[3] between Castledawson and Toomebridge in Northern Ireland; he was the first of nine children. In 1953, his family moved to Bellaghy, a few miles away, which is now the family home. His father, Patrick Heaney (d. October 1986),[9] was the eighth child of ten born to James and Sarah Heaney.[10] Patrick was a farmer, but his real commitment was to cattle-dealing, to which he was introduced by the uncles who had cared for him after the early death of his own parents.[11]
Heaney's mother, Margaret Kathleen McCann (1911–1984),[12] who bore nine children,[13] came from the McCann family.[14] Her uncles and relations were employed in the local linen mill, and her aunt had worked as a maid for the mill owner's family. Heaney commented on the fact that his parentage thus contained both the Ireland of the cattle-herding Gaelic past and the Ulster of the Industrial Revolution; he considered this to have been a significant tension in his background. Heaney initially attended Anahorish Primary School; when he was twelve years old, he won a scholarship to St. Columb's College, a Roman Catholic boarding school situated in Derry. Heaney's brother, Christopher, was killed in a road accident at the age of four while Heaney was studying at St. Columb's. The poems "Mid-Term Break" and "The Blackbird of Glanmore" focus on his brother's death.[15]

From "Digging"
My grandfather cut more turf in a day
Than any other man on Toner's bog.
Once I carried him milk in a bottle
Corked sloppily with paper. He straightened up
To drink it, then fell to right away
Nicking and slicing neatly, heaving sods
Over his shoulder, going down and down
For the good turf. Digging.
The cold smell of potato mould, the squelch and slap
Of soggy peat, the curt cuts of an edge
Through living roots awaken in my head.
But I've no spade to follow men like them.
Between my finger and my thumb
The squat pen rests.
I'll dig with it.
from "Digging", Death of a Naturalist (1966)
In 1957, Heaney travelled to Belfast to study English Language and Literature at [17] With McLaverty's mentorship, Heaney first started to publish poetry, beginning in 1962. Hillan describes how McLaverty was like a foster father to the younger Belfast poet.[18] In the introduction to McLaverty's Collected works, Heaney summarised the poet's contribution and influence: "His voice was modestly pitched, he never sought the limelight, yet for all that, his place in our literature is secure."[19] Heaney's poem Fosterage, in the sequence Singing School from North (1975) is dedicated to him.
In 1963, Heaney became a lecturer at St Joseph's and in the spring of 1963, after contributing various articles to local magazines, he came to the attention of Philip Hobsbaum, then an English lecturer at Queen's University. Hobsbaum set up a Belfast Group of local young poets (to mirror the success he had with the London group) and this would bring Heaney into contact with other Belfast poets such as Derek Mahon and Michael Longley. In August 1965 he married Marie Devlin, a school teacher and native of Ardboe, County Tyrone. (Devlin is a writer and, in 1994, published Over Nine Waves, a collection of traditional Irish myths and legends.) Heaney's first book, Eleven Poems, was published in November 1965 for the Queen's University Festival.
In 1966, [17] Also in 1966, he was appointed as a lecturer in Modern English Literature at Queen's University Belfast and his first son, Michael, was born. A second son, Christopher, was born in 1968. That same year, with Michael Longley, Heaney took part in a reading tour called Room to Rhyme, which led to much exposure for the poet's work. In 1969, his second major volume, Door into the Dark, was published.
After a spell as guest lecturer at the University of California, Berkeley, he returned to Queen's University in 1971. In 1972, Heaney left his lectureship at Belfast and moved to Wicklow in the Republic of Ireland, and began writing on a full-time basis. In the same year, Wintering Out was published. Over the next few years Heaney began to give readings throughout Ireland, Great Britain and the United States. In 1975, Heaney published his fourth volume, North. A pamphlet of prose poems entitled Stations was published the same year.
He became Head of English at Carysfort College in Dublin in 1976 and the family moved to Sandymount in Dublin. His next volume, Field Work, was published in 1979. Selected Poems 1965-1975 and Preoccupations: Selected Prose 1968–1978 were published in 1980. When Aosdána, the national Irish Arts Council, was established in 1981, Heaney was among those elected into its first group (he was subsequently elected a Saoi, one of its five elders and its highest honour, in 1997).[20]
Also in 1981, he left Carysfort to become visiting professor at Harvard University, where he was affiliated with Adams House. He was awarded two honorary doctorates, from Queen's University and from Fordham University in New York City (1982). At the Fordham commencement ceremony in 1982, Heaney delivered the commencement address in a 46-stanza poem entitled Verses for a Fordham Commencement.
As he was born and educated in Northern Ireland, Heaney felt the need to emphasise that he was Irish and not British.[21] Following the success of the Field Day Theatre Company's production of Brian Friel's Translations, Heaney joined the company's expanded Board of Directors in 1981, when the company's founders Brian Friel and Stephen Rea decided to make the company a permanent group.[22] In autumn 1984, his mother, Margaret, died.[9][23]
Marie and Seamus Heaney at the Dominican Church, Kraków, Poland, 4 October 1996.
Heaney was Boylston Professor of Rhetoric and Oratory at Harvard University (formerly Visiting Professor) 1985–1997 and the Ralph Waldo Emerson Poet in Residence at Harvard 1998–2006.[24] In 1986, Heaney received a Litt.D. from Bates College. His father, Patrick, died in October the same year.[9] The loss of both parents within two years affected Heaney deeply, and he expressed his grief in poems.[9] In 1988, a collection of his critical essays, The Government of the Tongue, was published.
In 1985 Heaney wrote the poem "From the Republic of Conscience" at the request of Amnesty International Ireland to, in Heaney's words "celebrate United Nations Day and the work of Amnesty".[25] The poem went on to inspire Amnesty International's highest honor the Ambassador of Conscience Award[26]
In 1988, Heaney donated his lecture notes to Emory University's Manuscripts, Archives, and Rare Book Library (MARBL) following his famous Ellmann Lecture in Modern Literature.[27]
In 1989, Heaney was elected Professor of Poetry at the University of Oxford, which he held for a five-year term to 1994. The chair does not require residence in Oxford, and throughout this period he was dividing his time between Ireland and the United States. He also continued to give public readings; so well attended and keenly anticipated were these events that those who queued for tickets with such enthusiasm were sometimes dubbed "Heaneyboppers", suggesting an almost teenybopper fanaticism on the part of his supporters.[28]
In 1990, The Cure at Troy, his play based on Sophocles's Philoctetes,[29] was published to much acclaim. The next year, he published another volume of poetry, Seeing Things (1991). Heaney was named an Honorary Patron of the University Philosophical Society, Trinity College, Dublin, and was elected an Honorary Fellow of the Royal Society of Literature (1991).[30] In 1993, Heaney guest-edited The Mays Anthology, a collection of new writing from students at the University of Oxford and University of Cambridge.
Heaney was awarded the Samuel Beckett, Heaney responded: "It's like being a little foothill at the bottom of a mountain range. You hope you just live up to it. It's extraordinary.".[32] He and Marie were immediately whisked straight from the airport to Áras an Uachtaráin for champagne with the President Mary Robinson.[32]
Heaney's 1996 collection The Spirit Level won the Whitbread Book of the Year Award; he repeated the success with Beowulf: A New Translation.[33]
In 1996, Heaney was elected a Member of the Royal Irish Academy, and admitted in 1997.[34] In the same year, Heaney was elected Saoi of Aosdána.[35]
The Seamus Heaney Centre for Poetry, which was officially opened at Queen's University Belfast in 2004.
In 2000, Heaney was awarded an honorary doctorate and delivered the commencement address at the University of Pennsylvania.[36] In 2002, Heaney was awarded an honorary doctorate from Rhodes University and delivered a public lecture on "The Guttural Muse".[37]
In 2003, the Seamus Heaney Centre for Poetry was opened at Queen's University Belfast. It houses the Heaney Media Archive, a record of Heaney's entire oeuvre, along with a full catalogue of his radio and television presentations.[38] That same year Heaney, decided to lodge a substantial portion of his literary archive at Emory University, as a memorial to the work of William M. Chace, the university's recently retired president.[39][40] The Emory papers represented the largest repository of Heaney's work (1964–2003), donated to build their large existing archive from Irish writers including Yeats, Paul Muldoon, Ciaran Carson, Michael Longley and other members of the The Belfast Group.[41]
In 2003, when asked if there was any figure in popular culture who aroused interest in poetry and lyrics, Heaney praised rap artist Eminem, saying "He has created a sense of what is possible. He has sent a voltage around a generation. He has done this not just through his subversive attitude but also his verbal energy."[42][43] Heaney wrote the poem "Beacons of Bealtaine" to mark the 2004 EU Enlargement. He read the poem at a ceremony for the 25 leaders of the enlarged European Union, arranged by the Irish EU presidency.
In August 2006, Heaney suffered a stroke. Although he recovered and joked, "Blessed are the pacemakers," when fitted with a heart monitor,[44] he cancelled all public engagements for several months.[45] He was in County Donegal at the time on the occasion of the 75th birthday of Anne Friel, wife of playwright Brian Friel.[14][46] He read the works of Henning Mankell, Donna Leon and Robert Harris while in hospital, and was visited at the time by Bill Clinton.[14][47]
Heaney's District and Circle won the 2006 T. S. Eliot Prize.[48] In 2008, he became artist of honour in Østermarie, Denmark, and the Seamus Heaney Stræde (street) was named after him. In 2009, Heaney was presented with an Honorary-Life Membership award from the University College Dublin (UCD) Law Society, in recognition of his remarkable role as a literary figure.[49]
Faber and Faber published Dennis O'Driscoll's book Stepping Stones: Interviews with Seamus Heaney in 2008; this has been described as the nearest thing to an autobiography of Heaney.[50] In 2009, Heaney was awarded the David Cohen Prize for Literature. He spoke at the West Belfast Festival 2010 in celebration of his mentor, the poet and novelist Michael MacLaverty, who had helped Heaney to first publish his poetry.[51]
In 2010, Faber published Human Chain, Heaney's twelfth collection. Human Chain was awarded the Forward Poetry Prize for Best Collection, one of the only major poetry prizes Heaney had never previously won, despite having been twice shortlisted.[52][53] The book, published 44 years after the poet's first, was inspired in part by Heaney's stroke in 2006 which left him "babyish" and "on the brink". Poet and Forward judge Ruth Padel described the work as "a collection of painful, honest and delicately weighted poems...a wonderful and humane achievement".[52] Writer Colm Tóibín described Human Chain as "his best single volume for many years, and one that contains some of the best poems he has written... is a book of shades and memories, of things whispered, of journeys into the underworld, of elegies and translations, of echoes and silences."[54] In October 2010, the collection was shortlisted for the T. S. Eliot Prize.
Heaney was named one of "Britain's top 300 intellectuals" by The Observer in 2011, though the newspaper later published a correction acknowledging that "several individuals who would not claim to be British" had been featured, of which Heaney was one.[55] That same year, he contributed translations of Old Irish marginalia for Songs of the Scribe, an album by Traditional Singer in Residence of the Seamus Heaney Centre for Poetry, Pádraigín Ní Uallacháin.[56]
In December 2011, he donated his personal literary notes to the National Library of Ireland.[57] Even though he admitted he would likely have earned a fortune by auctioning them, Heaney personally packed up the boxes of notes and drafts and, accompanied by his son Michael, delivered them to the National Library.[58]
In June 2012, Heaney accepted the Griffin Trust for Excellence in Poetry's Lifetime Recognition Award and gave a 12 minute speech in honour of the award.[59]
Heaney was compiling a collection of his work in anticipation of Selected Poems 1988-2013 at the time of his death. The selection includes poems and writings from Seeing Things, The Spirit Level, the translation of Beowulf; Electric Light, District and Circle, and Human Chain (Fall 2014).
In February 2014, Emory University premiered Seamus Heaney: The Music of What Happens, the first major exhibition to celebrate the life and work of late Irish poet and Nobel Prize-winner Seamus Heaney since his death. [60] The exhibit holds a display of the surface of Heaney's personal writing desk that he used in the 1980s as well as old photographs and personal correspondence with other writers.[61] Heaney passed away in August 2013, during the exhibition's curatorial process. Though the exhibit's original vision to celebrate Heaney's life and work remains at the forefront, there is a small section commemorating his death and its influence.[62]
Heaney died in the Blackrock Clinic in Dublin on 30 August 2013, aged 74, following a short illness.[63][64][65] After a fall outside a restaurant in Dublin,[65] he entered hospital for a medical procedure, but died at 7:30 the following morning before it took place. His funeral was held in Donnybrook, Dublin, on the morning of 2 September 2013, and he was buried in the evening at his home village of Bellaghy, in the same graveyard as his parents, young brother, and other family members.[63][66] His son Michael revealed at the funeral mass that his father texted his final words, "Noli timere", to his wife, Marie, minutes before he died.[44][67]
The day after his death, a crowd of 81,553 spectators applauded Heaney for three minutes at an All-Ireland Gaelic football semi-final match on September 1.[68] His funeral was broadcast live the following day on RTÉ television and radio, and was streamed internationally at RTÉ's website. RTÉ Radio 1 Extra transmitted a continuous broadcast, from 8 a.m. to 9:15 p.m. on the day of the funeral, of his Collected Poems album, recorded by Heaney in 2009.[69] His poetry collections sold out rapidly in Irish bookshops immediately following his death.[70]
Many tributes were paid to Heaney. President Michael D. Higgins said:
"...we in Ireland will once again get a sense of the depth and range of the contribution of Seamus Heaney to our contemporary world, but what those of us who have had the privilege of his friendship and presence will miss is the extraordinary depth and warmth of his personality...Generations of Irish people will have been familiar with Seamus' poems. Scholars all over the world will have gained from the depth of the critical essays, and so many rights organisations will want to thank him for all the solidarity he gave to the struggles within the republic of conscience."[71]
Higgins also appeared live from Áras an Uachtaráin on the Nine O'Clock News in a five-minute segment in which he paid tribute to Heaney.[72]
Bill Clinton, former President of the United States, said:
"Both his stunning work and his life were a gift to the world. His mind, heart, and his uniquely Irish gift for language made him our finest poet of the rhythms of ordinary lives and a powerful voice for peace...His wonderful work, like that of his fellow Irish Nobel Prize winners Shaw, Yeats, and Beckett, will be a lasting gift for all the world."[73]
José Manuel Barroso, European Commission president, said:
"I am greatly saddened today to learn of the death of Seamus Heaney, one of the great European poets of our lifetime...The strength, beauty and character of his words will endure for generations to come and were rightly recognised with the Nobel Prize for Literature."[73]
Harvard University issued a statement:
"We are fortunate and proud to have counted Seamus Heaney as a revered member of the Harvard family. For us, as for people around the world, he epitomised the poet as a wellspring of humane insight and artful imagination, subtle wisdom and shining grace. We will remember him with deep affection and admiration."[73]
Poet Faber and Faber noted that "his impact on literary culture is immeasurable."[78] Playwright Tom Stoppard said, "Seamus never had a sour moment, neither in person nor on paper".[76] Andrew Motion, a former UK Poet Laureate and friend of Heaney, called him "a great poet, a wonderful writer about poetry, and a person of truly exceptional grace and intelligence".[74]
From "Joy Or Night":
In order that human beings bring about the most radiant conditions for themselves to inhabit, it is essential that the vision of reality which poetry offers should be transformative, more than just a printout of the given circumstances of its time and place. The poet who would be most the poet has to attempt an act of writing that outstrips the conditions even as it observes them.
—from "Joy Or Night: Last Things in the Poetry of W. B. Yeats and Philip Larkin", W. D. Thomas Memorial Lecture delivered by Seamus Heaney at University College of Swansea on 18 January 1993.
According to the BBC, at one time Heaney's books made up two-thirds of the sales of living poets in the UK.[5] His work often deals with the local surroundings of Ireland, particularly in Northern Ireland, where he was born and lived until young adulthood. Speaking of his early life and education, he commented, "I learned that my local County Derry experience, which I had considered archaic and irrelevant to 'the modern world' was to be trusted. They taught me that trust and helped me to articulate it."[79] Death of a Naturalist (1966) and Door into the Dark (1969) mostly focus on the details of rural, parochial life.[79]
In a number of volumes, beginning with "Door into the Dark" (1969) and "Wintering Out" (1972), Heaney also spent a significant amount of time writing on the northern Irish bog. Particularly of note is the collection of bog body poems in North (1975), featuring mangled bodies preserved in the bog. In a review by Ciaran Carson, Carson said that the bog poems made Heaney into "the laureate of violence--a mythmaker, an anthropologist of ritual killing...the wrold of megalithic doorways and charming noble barbarity."[80] Poems such as "Bogland" and "Bog Queen" served to both begin to directly address political struggles for the first time as well as maintain a natural aesthetic.
Allusions to sectarian difference, widespread in Northern Ireland through his lifetime, can be found in his poems. His books Wintering Out (1973) and North (1975) seek to interweave commentary on 'The Troubles' with a historical context and wider human experience.[79] While some critics accused Heaney of being "an apologist and a mythologizer" of the violence, Blake Morrison suggests the poet
"has written poems directly about the Troubles as well as elegies for friends and acquaintances who have died in them; he has tried to discover a historical framework in which to interpret the current unrest; and he has taken on the mantle of public spokesman, someone looked to for comment and guidance... Yet he has also shown signs of deeply resenting this role, defending the right of poets to be private and apolitical, and questioning the extent to which poetry, however 'committed,' can influence the course of history." [79]
Shaun O'Connell in the New Boston Review notes that "those who see Seamus Heaney as a symbol of hope in a troubled land are not, of course, wrong to do so, though they may be missing much of the undercutting complexities of his poetry, the backwash of ironies which make him as bleak as he is bright."[79] O'Connell notes in his Boston Review critique of Station Island:
"Again and again Heaney pulls back from political purposes; despite its emblems of savagery, Station Island lends no rhetorical comfort to Republicanism. Politic about politics, Station Island is less about a united Ireland than about a poet seeking religious and aesthetic unity".[81]
Heaney is described by critic Terry Eagleton as "an enlightened cosmopolitan liberal",[82] refusing to be drawn. Eagleton suggests: "When the political is introduced... it is only in the context of what Heaney will or will not say."[83] Reflections on what Heaney identifies as "tribal conflict",[83] favour the description of people's lives and their voices, drawing out the 'psychic landscape'. His collections often recall the assassination of his family members and close friends, lynchings and bombings. Colm Tóibín wrote, "throughout his career there have been poems of simple evocation and description. His refusal to sum up or offer meaning is part of his tact."[54]
Heaney published "Requiem for the Croppies", a poem that commemorates the Irish rebels of 1798, on the 50th anniversary of the 1916 Easter Rising. He read the poem to both Catholic and Protestant audiences in Ireland. He commented, "To read ''Requiem for the Croppies'' wasn't to say 'up the IRA' or anything. It was silence-breaking rather than rabble-rousing."[84] He stated, "You don't have to love it. You just have to permit it."[84]
He turned down the offer of laureateship of the United Kingdom, partly for political reasons, commenting, "I've nothing against the Queen personally: I had lunch at the Palace once upon a time".[84] He stated that his "cultural starting point" was "off-centre".[84] A much-quoted statement was when he objected to being included in The Penguin Book of Contemporary British Poetry (1982). Although he was born in Northern Ireland, his response to being included in the British anthology was delivered in his poem, "An Open Letter":
"Don't be surprised if I demur, for, be advised
My passport's green.
No glass of ours was ever raised
To toast The Queen."[84]
He was concerned, as a poet and a translator, with the English language as it is spoken in Ireland but also as spoken elsewhere and in other times; he explored Anglo-Saxon influences in his work and study. Critic W. S. Di Piero noted
"Whatever the occasion, childhood, farm life, politics and culture in Northern Ireland, other poets past and present, Heaney strikes time and again at the taproot of language, examining its genetic structures, trying to discover how it has served, in all its changes, as a culture bearer, a world to contain imaginations, at once a rhetorical weapon and nutriment of spirit. He writes of these matters with rare discrimination and resourcefulness, and a winning impatience with received wisdom."[79]
Heaney's first translation was of the Irish lyric poem, "Buile Suibhne", published as Sweeney Astray: A Version from the Irish (1984). He took up this character and connection in poems published in Station Island (1984). Heaney's prize-winning translation of Beowulf (Farrar, Straus & Giroux, 2000, Whitbread Book of the Year Award) was considered ground-breaking in its use of modern language melded with the original Anglo-Saxon 'music'.[79]
Plays and Prose
His plays include The Cure at Troy: A Version of Sophocles' Philoctetes (1991). Heaney's 2004 play, Bush administration.[85]
Heaney's engagement with poetry as a necessary engine for cultural and personal change, is reflected in his prose works, The Redress of Poetry (1995) and Finders Keepers: Selected Prose, 1971–2001 (2002).[79]
"When a poem rhymes," Heaney wrote, "when a form generates itself, when a metre provokes consciousness into new postures, it is already on the side of life. When a rhyme surprises and extends the fixed relations between words, that in itself protests against necessity. When language does more than enough, as it does in all achieved poetry, it opts for the condition of overlife, and rebels at limit."[54]
He continues: "The vision of reality which poetry offers should be transformative, more than just a printout of the given circumstances of its time and place".[54] Often overlooked and underestimated in the direction of his work is his profound poetic debts to and critical engagement with 20th-century Eastern European poets, and in particular Nobel laureate Czesław Miłosz.[86]
Heaney's work is used extensively on school syllabi internationally, including the anthologies The Rattle Bag (1982) and The School Bag (1997) (both edited with Ted Hughes). Originally entitled The Faber Book of Verse for Younger People on the Faber contract, Hughes and Heaney decided the main purpose of The Rattle Bag was to offer enjoyment to the reader: "Arbitrary riches". Heaney commented "the book in our heads was something closer to The Fancy Free Poetry Supplement".[87] It included work that they would have liked to encountered sooner in their own lives, as well as nonsense rhymes, ballad-type poems, riddles, folk songs and rhythmical jingles. Much familiar canonical work was not included, since they took it for granted that their audience would know the standard fare. Fifteen years later The School Bag aimed at something different. The foreword stated that they wanted "less of a carnival, more like a checklist." It included poems in English, Irish, Welsh, Scots and Scots Gaelic, together with work reflecting the African-American experience.[87]
Heaney influenced a wide range of poets, including U.S. Poet Laureate Natasha Tretheway. The poem South, from her 2007 Pulitzer Prize winning collection Native Guard, was inspired by Heaney's North. About her working with Heaney's poem and how it influenced her work, Tretheway said, "answering the call of our particular geographies and their attendant histories is a noble undertaking: a necessary one."[88]
Tretheway teaches poetry at Emory University, where Heaney's influence has further reached. In 2003, Heaney chose to give his papers to Emory University's Manuscript, Archives, and Rare Book Library (MARBL). The donation positioned MARBL as one of the most renowned collections of Irish literature in North America. Emory displayed Heaney's papers in an exhibit entitled, "The Music of What Happens," curated by Geraldine Higgins, who serves as director of Emory's Irish studies program. The exhibit ran from Oct. 2, 2013 to November 25, 2014.[89]
Heaney also taught and influenced the American poet Kevin Young during his time at Harvard. [90] Young is now the Haygood Professor of English and curator of Emory's Raymond Danowski Poetry Library at MARBL.
American poet and 2012 Pulitzer Prize winner Tracy K. Smith also cites Heaney as a major influence on her work. [91]
In October 2014, Emory University hosted seven poets and authors including Natasha Trethewey, Kevin Young, and long-time friend of Heaney, William Corbett, who gathered to commemorate Heaney's life and work in "A Tribute to Seamus Heaney in Poetry and Song." At the event, speakers read Heaney's work in addition to selections from their own work inspired by him.[92]
Heaney collaborated with rising young American composer Mohammed Fairouz, who composed Anything Can Happen (2012), a five-movement work setting the poetry of Heaney and biblical verses in Arabic. The project, commissioned by the college and other parties, was premiered by The Grinnell Singers of Grinnell College on their 2012 spring tour[93] and on campus on April 14, 2012.[94]

In 1996 Harald Tietze published his book, Kombucha: The Miracle Fungus, (available on ebay) and it mentions Gypsy Rose's products… here's an extract of the book.
A hairdresser from Queensland had so many good reports from clients using Kombucha that they developed a special Kombucha Shampoo. "Normally, hair conditioner is applied after shampooing, but when using Kombucha shampoo, the hair is silky and soft without conditioner," said Karen from the Herbacraft Gypsy Rose Hairdressers (with 18 national and international hairdressing awards to their credit). She wrote me a letter with comments from some of her clients.
Their hair is growing back where previously they were bald, even though some are not drinking the tea and only using the shampoo. Client CA from N. Her hair regained its natural colour. She is using the shampoo and drinking the tea, although the colour change began before she actually started drinking the tea. Initially she was using only the shampoo which means the Kombucha mushroom works by applying it externally to solve an internal problem. The results of psoriasis, an itchy, dry, flaky scalp incredibly is all gone, as well as the sores and dandruff. These are only a few comments extracted from Karen's letter. The other ingredients which are mixed together in the shampoo with Kombucha are a business secret.

Q: How To Use Token In A Resumable Upload With Google Drive API (Python) I'm trying to implement resumable upload with Google Drive API via Python.
It's important it will be resumable because I need to upload a few GB every time.
So I followed this tutorial. Yet, I have no idea how to use my token inside headers.
The problem is in uploadFile() --> access_token=?
It can't be the token itself (or at least not in its usual form)
from __future__ import print_function
import pickle
import os.path
import json
import os
import requests
from googleapiclient.discovery import build
from google_auth_oauthlib.flow import InstalledAppFlow
from google.auth.transport.requests import Request
from googleapiclient.http import MediaFileUpload

def auth():
    creds = None
    if os.path.exists('token.pickle'):
        with open('token.pickle', 'rb') as token:
            creds = pickle.load(token)
    # If there are no (valid) credentials available, let the user log in.
    if not creds or not creds.valid:
        if creds and creds.expired and creds.refresh_token:
            creds.refresh(Request())
        else:
            flow = InstalledAppFlow.from_client_secrets_file('credentials.json', SCOPES)
            creds = flow.run_local_server(port=0)
        # Save the credentials for the next run
        with open('token.pickle', 'wb') as token:
            pickle.dump(creds, token)
    global service
    service = build('drive', 'v3', credentials=creds)

def uploadFile():
    access_token = ??? #As I get it, it should be a string. But how do I stringify a token?

    filename = './20200229_151839_008.jpg'
    filesize = os.path.getsize(filename)

    # 1. Retrieve session for resumable upload.
    headers = {"Authorization": "Bearer " + access_token, "Content-Type": "application/json"}
    params = {
        "name": "20200229_151839_008.jpg",
        "mimeType": "image/img"
    }
    r = requests.post(
        "https://www.googleapis.com/upload/drive/v3/files?uploadType=resumable",
        headers=headers,
        data=json.dumps(params)
    )
    location = r.headers['Location']

    # 2. Upload the file.
    headers = {"Content-Range": "bytes 0-" + str(filesize - 1) + "/" + str(filesize)}
    r = requests.put(
        location,
        headers=headers,
        data=open(filename, 'rb')
    )
    print(r.text)

Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you.

A: In order to retrieve the access token using the script of auth(), when your script is modified, please modify auth() as follows.
From:
global service
service = build('drive', 'v3', credentials=creds)

To:
global service, access_token
service = build('drive', 'v3', credentials=creds)
access_token = creds.token

*

*In this case, please remove access_token = ???. By this, the script can be run with access_token retrieved from creds.token.

Note:

*

*In this answer, it supposes that you have already been able to upload a file using Drive API. Please be careful this.

*In your script, SCOPES is not declared. Please be careful this.

*When I saw your script, it seems that you are using googleapis for python. In this case, you can also achieve the resumable upload using googleapis as follows. For this, please modify uploadFile as follows.
  def uploadFile():
      filename = './20200229_151839_008.jpg'
      metadata = {'name': '20200229_151839_008.jpg'}
      media_body = MediaFileUpload(filename, resumable=True)
      res = service.files().create(body=metadata, media_body=media_body).execute()
      print(res)

Two events this Saturday you shouldn't miss: The Friends of Black Bayou Fall Celebration and the Northeast Louisiana Arts Council Brew on the Bridge.
Fall Celebration happens at Black Bayou Lake NWR. There's a 5K trail run at 9 a.m., but everything else begins at 10 a.m. And "everything else" includes a long list of fun stuff for the whole family.
Louisiana Master Naturalists – Northeast will have a table in the Visitor Center alongside Ouachita Green, so stop by and say "Hi!" And if you see Charles and Kim Paxton–as you most likely will–be sure to thank them for this beautiful new brochure we have to hand out!
In addition to the Paxtons, Roselie Overby, Suzanne Laird and David Hoover will help staff our table, and Stuart Hodnett will be nearby at the Ouachita Green table.
Our new brochure featuring a terrific photograph from our herps workshop.
Fall Festival happens every year the Saturday of National Wildlife Refuge Week.
Brew on the Bridge runs 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday. It's an event of the Northeast Louisiana Arts Councils North Delta Food & Wine Festival and features dozens of craft beers to taste for just $10.
The Endom Bridge across the Ouachita River, from Cotton on the Monroe side to Trapp's on the West Monroe side, will close early in the morning so that artist, artisan, food and beer vendors can set up booths, tables and the like all along the bridge.
Limited Edition puzzles made from Bette J. Kauffman photographs.
I will be there this year as a vendor with framed and unframed prints (some Limited Edition, some not), artist note cards and something new: Limited Edition puzzles! If you don't spend your entire day at Fall Celebration, I hope you'll stop by Brew on the Bridge.
BTW, I will also be handing out our new LMN-NE flyers at Brew on the Bridge! Sure do hate to miss Fall Celebration, and please know I have wailed long enough and loud enough that an Arts Council Board member has promised me that these two events will NOT conflict next year.
And just for the fun of it, because I need a good header photo, here's one from last Saturday's BioBlitz, which was a blast.
