The mentalist as internet quotes (part 2/??)

[hipmamajenn]

I likely won’t make my goal of reading 100 books in 2018, but I got close. For a year with a divorce, a move, car accident and more, I’m okay with my results. Haters may say, “Yes well some are picture books,” but I didn’t just skim them or give them a quick five-minute read, I critically read and analyzed them and that was a triumph for me this year. So now, in no particular order are my favorite reads of 2018:

Quote from “The Awakening”

  1.) The Awakening by Kate Chopin – This was a revisit for me. I read the story originally when I was a young adult. With the encouragement of my daughter, I reread it and found that it relates even more to me now than it ever has.

  2.) The Nest by Kenneth Oppel –  I experienced this as an audiobook and was blown away not only by the narration but by the surreal story which is at once elegant and effusive. A modern-day fairy tale with masterful execution.

3.)The Sirens of Titan by Kurt Vonnegut – It was a joy to read this early work by Kurt Vonnegut. It was made even better by reading it with a great friend who would meet “virtually” for book discussions. This one definitely needs combing through.

4) Brief Interviews with Hideous Men & A Supposedly Fun Thing I’ll Never Do Again by David Foster Wallace – I have written extensively about these on previous blog posts.

      5) Photographic: Life of Graciela Iturbide by Isabel Quintero – One of the best graphic novels of 2018, the gorgeous exposition on Photographer Graciela Iturbide is not simply an autobiography about her, it dives into the how and why of her life, artistic and philosophical choices. Author Isabel Quintero uses very few words to tell the story but they are carefully chosen and artfully constructed.

Page sample from the book “Photographic: The Life of Graciela Iturbide”

6) What It Is by Lynda Barry – A stunning book about the creative life. Barry shares her strife with doubt and writer’s block as well as the glorious moments her ideas and work flowed freely. She discusses that its normal to write about the bad things, most people do when they start. The most common things to write about are our doubts, fears, disappointments, regrets, etc. The last third of the book is a series of writing prompts, inspirations, ideas, and tools. Her work is a patchwork of handwritten letters, cut-out words and images, drawings and written text. You can get lost in the shapes, colors, and words. This would make a great gift for any creative person and a great tool for anyone who wants to write but doesn’t know how to get started.

7) The Immoralists by Chloe Benjamin – Moving, original and thrilling- this book is full of magic, fortune telling, sex, relationships and a sprinkle of religious and familial conflicts and questions. If a mentalist told you your death date would you believe it? Even if you tried not to believe it would the deep subconscious thought take control of your actions? Could it become true because of the repeated thought in your mind?

    8) Jelly, Garbage & Toys by Vik Muniz –This interactive picture book features artist Vik Muniz speaking to the reader of the book. He introduces you to his studio and tells the story of his relationship with art, which is a fascinating one. He is perhaps best known for pushing the limits of what is considered art. He created a reproduction of a famous photograph of Jackson Pollock splattering paint but he used chocolate as his medium. He reproduced the Mona Lisa with peanut butter and jelly and he made a piece called Medusa Marinara out of you guessed it, spaghetti and sauce. This book will compel even the most persnickety reader, at least visually. For any readers inclined to be interested in art, it is likely to encourage bouts of creativity and for the daring teachers and parents out there, maybe offer for your kids to play with their food.

9) Out of Nothing by David Blandy – This graphic novel encompasses 13.84 billion years and argues that all great changes and developments of storytelling came from someone mixing two unlikely things together. The book begins by introducing us to a human chimera whose ghost-like behavior allows her to inhabit the time and space of great thinkers and creators over this massive span of time. The books also consider scientific discovery and innovation via the mixing concept. From the Big Bang to the Manhattan Project, genetic mutations and the development of the internet. Teens and adults who enjoy a bit of brain poking with their graphic novel reads will certainly enjoy the experience of Out of Nothing.

10) Blankets by Craig Thompson – This was another revisit for me that felt like a brand new read because I read it with an internet friend and great analyzer of books. The story is a slice of life on a young man from his boyhood until his adulthood. It combines family, religion, first love and finding yourself in a beautiful balance of images and words.

New & Old, Picture Books, Short Fiction, Graphic Novels & Essay Collections. My 10 Favorite of 2018 I likely won't make my goal of reading 100 books in 2018, but I got close. For a year with a divorce, a move, car accident and more, I'm okay with my results.

Dangerous Air Quality, Phone/Internet Savings, Scandal at Crystalline, Telemedicine

SAG/AFTRA member Cynthia Brian continues Wednesdays with Writers and Performers on StarStyle® giving authors, actors, artists, and entertainers who have had their live performances and events canceled due to Covid-19 a platform to shine. Find out how brilliant our world talent is right here on StarStyle®-Be the Star You Are!®

The air quality in California because of the fires is worse than in New Delhi. The concentration of the tiny particles (PM2.5) is roughly five times the daily average limit set by the EPA. Healthy people are reporting bloody noses, difficulty breathing, and headaches. Stay indoors with the windows shut and fans circulating. Poor air quality, particularly during wildfire season, is one of the most important environmental issues facing the state of California.

As with all utility bills, it’s easy to pay automatically then forget it. But you may be paying too much for too little. Review your plan at least twice yearly to make sure you are making use of current deals and your current usage. 

A Scandal at Crystalline by Roslyn Reid is a darkly funny mystery novel. It reveals the sinister side of raku pottery and kicks off a series of quirky mysteries set in Maine, featuring Black private detective James Early and his teenage son Tikki.

When you make an appointment to speak with your physician by phone, tablet, or computer, the visit is called “telemedicine”. Although it’s been available for a few years, Covid-19 has made telemedicine a safer way to interact with health care providers. Will it become routine? 

Bio: Author Roslyn Reid lives with her corgi, Great Pyrenees, and husband in Maine, where she gardens, lifts weights, hikes, and renovates houses. Her articles have been featured in Llewellyn’s annual almanacs for almost two decades (with reprint requests) and in publications such as Dalraida, a Celtic heritage magazine based in Scotland. She was 4th runner-up in "The Mentalist" (TV show) Writers’ 2013 InternationalPhoto/Caption Contest. In 2014, Down East, "The Magazine of Maine," ran some of her blurbs, and a local newspaper requested an article. Other writers have quoted her in such diverse stories as “What Is Derren Brown’s #Miracle?”, a Spotify short story by Jason Edge; and the Daytona News-Journal

Magician Zurich Switzerland

zauberer zürich The most crucial point is to make certain you book a professional. An amateur or part-time magician perhaps able to execute wonderful magic but there is a lot a lot more to it than that. Will they flip up on time? Will they be smartly introduced? Will they function difficult to make sure they see each guest? Will they have the knowledge to cope with any final minute alterations? Remember that if you are internet hosting or organising an event, the magician you pick will replicate on you. In the exact same way, a skilled magician who's livelihood relies upon on performing often will look following all the modest details because it reflects on them and their prospects of acquiring a lot more work. How do you know somebody is a specialist? Soon after all, anyone can say they are but what can you do to check out that it is true? How to Place a Specialist Magician Check that the magician has a great site and/ or printed marketing resources. These days, magicians typically count on a website to give details to possible clients because it is so straightforward to preserve a site up to day. Many also have video clips or DVDs and printed resources including pictures. Of system, this isn't going to make them a great magician but it does indicate their professionalism. It can also give you an concept of what a performer is like if you have not met them. Verify that the magician is a member of magic societies such as the Magic Circle and the International Brotherhood of Magicians. These societies call for magicians to be critical and achieved performers ahead of they are allowed membership. Another good signal is if they are a member of an organisation like Equity, the Uk performers union or similar specialist physique. Examine the magician's list of clients and engagements, and testimonial/ suggestion letters. A specialist magician ought to be able to give information of earlier clientele and engagements - if they can not one thing is wrong. The types of events they have been included with will show if they are the proper magician for your occasion. The letters and prices can be valuable, despite the fact that it is not likely that any bad quotes will uncover their way into someone's marketing components! Even so, the quantity and top quality of the prices should give you an concept of how well gained a performer is. Never be scared to question for copies of the unique letters or emails. Check that the magician has general public liability insurance coverage. This is very important! The magician may be carefully interacting with your guests, perhaps borrowing objects from them and a expert will be lined for any accidents that may possibly come about. Is a Specific Specialist Magician Appropriate for You? So, you've got identified a skilled magician. How do you know they are proper for you and your event? Certainly, viewing them carry out is the ideal way. Often a magician will function routinely at a restaurant or club, or even have a standard phase demonstrate and this is a fantastic prospect to see them in motion. Even so, some magicians only carry out at corporate and private capabilities and you might not be ready to see them in community. Promotional supplies and details about previous customers and engagement should give you a rather great notion what they are like, but a fast mobile phone contact is the greatest way. Have a chat with them, request them what their overall performance fashion is like and what varieties of magical effects they execute. If you like what you listen to and can get on with them in excess of the telephone, it is a good sign. Value and Negotiating a Payment Usually the primary aspect when choosing which magician to select is value. Costs for expert magicians range a good deal since they count on many variables such as the date and time of the celebration, how well known the magician is, what type of magic you want them to execute, how lengthy you want them for, etc. But, as with most other solutions and items, you get what you spend for. Excellent magical amusement is not anything that you can get cheaply. If you are purchasing close to and enquiring with a lot of magicians, going with the most affordable might not be the best option! When negotiating the price it can be a great concept to be up front and state what the accessible funds is. This could save the two you and the magician a good deal of time. If one particular magician is way too costly or is not obtainable, they may be ready to advise an additional magician or entertainer for your occasion. Their viewpoint is worthwhile, because they should be well aware how very good other magicians are and suggesting a person unprofessional would replicate poorly on them. He is a magician, mentalist, 1 of the most competent pickpockets in Europe and a actual charmer on the phase. The Swiss-born wizard Christophe Ambre stands with his in depth display, which fascinates the two with elements of magic.

Brainstorming.

So. Yes. I have minus 10 dollars in my bank account today. So i can’t really go anywhere or see anyone. So i spent most of my day watching The Mentalist  and gathering ideas for my next tattoo. (yay). Been a long time since my first tattoo and feels i need a new one to give me more meaning... We have to create ourselves right? I used pinterest a online pin board space... got lots of ideas but need something unique. Subject? Shark/s. 

I want it to reflect how i see them how special and strong they are. but also reflect my personality because this shark/s will also be apart of me. This shark will be a constant reminder that we are all strong and we are all powerful in our own ways, just like sharks and also how misunderstood they are. 

I have several ideas from internet but i want to have my own thing to it like fave color possibly a quote to go with... or something. Something special so i can say that shark is mine. 

This one spoke to me as its calm, nice, very art. Its however similar to my first tattoo i have unsure if i should go in this direction. 

Looks like they are forming a heart in someway... ether have 3 black type of sharks and a bright shiny one in the middle????

This is pretty cool but i know this type have been done with many type of animals. 

I think this is cool. I just want something to scream my name. 

Honestly, I hope it goes well, I cant draw well... but... we shall see if i go with a different style or go kinda mystical.
