One Single Impression 133: Passing

Breezes slip by me,
stirring flow'ry meadows with the
first breath of autumn.


For some reason, I got my haiku flowing this week. That hasn't happened in a long, long time. I enjoy sharing with all of you and I love doing the OSI blog with Sandy. I love writing haiku, also, but it is extremely challenging for me. One way I become inspired is by reading haiku at my leisure. I have been reading and re-reading Classic Haiku: The Greatest Japanese Poetry from Basho, Buson, Issa, Shiki, and Their Followers (Eternal Moments). It is a beautiful book that I keep by my bed.

But recently I ran across another book of haiku in the library and I enjoy it so much that I will have to buy it: Haiku: This Other World by Richard Wright. Wright is correct: haiku does create another world (at least for me).  The haiku in this book are more modern with both urban and pastoral themes. The notes and afterword in the back are comprehensive and valuable. I wanted to share this title with you in case you have missed it at the library.

Writing haiku helped Wright mourn. Wright's daughter writes in the Introduction that haiku is "a form of poetry which links seasons of the soul with nature's cycle of moods." I know that poetry, for all of us, heals and expresses our souls. I want to share a couple of my favorite Wright haiku here:

#728
Beneath pale stars,
Breathing wet on cattle horns,
A faint winter fog.

#721
As my anger ebbs,
The spring stars grow bright again
And the wind returns.

#716
With mouth gaping wide,
Swallowing strings of wild geese, —
Hungry autumn moon.

I can't share more with you. There are too many that fascinate me. Thank you for reading this rather long post. I hope you all have peaceful and beautiful week!

Meet Christopher, the so-called “guardian angel” of the Nine Lives Foundation’s Feline Well-Care Clinic in Redwood City. Christopher came to the clinic with a fractured pelvis, and, after recuperating, stuck around to help other unwell cats in the clinic.

What makes Christopher a “guardian angel” cat? Well, he seems to have a sixth sense that allows him to know when other cats require help. He has helped calm feral kittens, comforted cats in distress, and even assisted in a blood transfusion for an anemic kitten by making chief veterinarian Monica Thompson aware that he was the same rare blood type as the ill kitten:
“If I hadn’t paid attention to (Christopher), I probably would have lost the cat,” Thompson said.
We wish every kitteh could have a Christopher in its life.

Banners Again

I'm playing with banners so you'll be seeing new ones pop up and down over the next few days. You can let me know what looks good and what doesn't — just leave a comment. The spider web banner that is up tonight is not right. The coloring is wrong. I don't know whether to change the background color of the blog or to change the banner. I have thousands of photos to play with in all sorts of colors. I don't know if I'll have soft, rounded corners or these 90° corners. Any ideas?

Published! (Again!)

My photos in Northern Woodlands Autumn 2010 edition.

Northern Woodlands Magazine contacted me a couple of months ago asking to use some of my mushroom photos for their autumn edition and I said yes. I have always enjoyed reading the magazine and intended, always, to subscribe. Now I have. They have a great website at northernwoodlands.org. You should peruse it and sign up for their free e-mail newsletter. You can subscribe from the site too, for their print magazine. You can view my photos and the article by Charles W. Johnson on page 16. Johnson has written at least 3 books.One, Bogs of the Northeast, is on my list of books to read as soon as possible (since, as you all know, we live on the beaver bog here) and it's at the library!. Johnson has another great mushroom article here.

The owner of the thumb holding the edible Chantarelle mushroom is my husband, John. Remember: don't even touch the poisonous mushrooms! John knows how to handle them and never touches anything after touching them until he washes in a brook. This is the perfect time of year to go into the woods and find mushrooms. The autumn rains help the spores grow and bloom very quickly. When you photograph mushrooms be sure to get the gills underneath. The stem, and how it connects to the mushroom head, is important too. Now get out there and take a pile of photos!

Tractor Chicken and the Culvert

The road crew begins the installation of the new culvert.
Barton has an ordinance that says that your driveway can only be twenty feet wide. Our driveway was created before that ordinance and it is forty feet wide. The town road crew says it is the widest in the town. The problem with the driveway was that it had no culvert down by the road. Therefore, a lot of the driveway has washed away and it has created the land around the apple orchard to flood, creating a new bog. In the winter, ice from this bog would seep under the road and break the asphalt, so that the road here was always bad. People in church have even commented on the bad condition of the road here.

John quickly figured all this out and explained it to me, telling me that we need a culvert. So we called the town and Clem, Barton's Road Commissioner, dropped by and heartily agreed with John's conclusions.  Clem doesn't even know why the driveway was allowed to be built so wide without a culvert. Now, property owners buy the driveway culverts and the town will install and maintain them. So John and I took off for Newport and bought a culvert and had it delivered. The Barton road crew dropped in on July 1, after Route 16 was paved and improved, to install the culvert. These photos illustrate the process. 

Tractor chicken heard the town tractor and came down for grubs.
The ditch for the new culvert is dug.
Clem uses a transit to make sure the ditch is level.
The ditch immediately fills with water from the apple orchard.
Tractor Chicken & her sisters move in closer.
Tractor Chicken is determined to get to the new ditch.
Clem chases the chickens away.
The connector is added to connect 2 20-ft sections.
Clem gives one final push on the culvert to send it into the ditch.
While Clem worked, I chased Tractor Chicken & her sisters away.
The hens took to sneaking around through the woods to get to
the tractor. Very sly little chickens!
Clem makes sure the culvert is flowing freely.
The culvert is buried with dirt.
The west end of the culvert.
The culvert is installed!

Ask Bob Rankin: How Can I Check for Hard Drive Damage?

Click to read more from Bob Rankin
If, like me, you are a MacHeretic and are still learning the PC operating system, I found a valuable resource for help:
From Ask Bob Rankin:
Every operating system can check a hard drive for bad sectors. In versions of Windows prior to XP, the DOS utility CHKDSK was used at the command line level. Later versions of Windows use this procedure:
  • Open the Start Menu and click on My Computer
  • Right-click on the icon representing the hard drive in question and select Properties
  • On the Tools tab, click the Check Now button under "Error-checking"
  • On the following popup window, check the box labeled "automatically fix errors" and "scan for and attempt to repair bad sectors"
  • Click OK
You will have to restart Windows because the error-checking utility cannot run while Windows is running. The tests and repairs will take a significant amount of time on a large hard drive; go to lunch or happy hour. When the tests for hard drive damage end, Windows will restart automatically. A report will be available after the error-checker does its job.
Click on the image above and subscribe to Rankin's e-mail list for more tips and information. Click the link "Ask Bob Rankin" to read this article in full. There are instructions for Macs there. Perhaps I'm not a MacHeretic as much as bi-platform girl.

Frequently Used Characters for Windows

A friend at the library let me copy her paper of diacritical marks and the codes to use to make them in Windows. I added the degree sign at the end of the list. These marks are handy when you are typing French, Spanish and other languages. You need to have a numeric keypad for these codes. To make the characters, press and hold the ALT key while you key in the numbers on the numeric keypad.


I hope you find this useful. Leave a comment for any additions — I can add them in a jiffy.

Give To A Shelter Instead!

Photo by Andrew via iPhone
Andrew had to go to an American Psychological Association convention in San Diego awhile back and sent me this photo of the cat and dog room service menu in his hotel room. People! Why don't you just bring your own Iams and give the rest to a shelter? C'mon already! Frontier Animal Society in Orleans needs your support!
