If you can't get to a museum, you can still get your art-fix by listening to their discussions of pieces such as Duchamp's Readymades and Bernini's <em>Ecstacy of St. Theresa</em>. New York-based Harris and Zucker focus primarily, but not exclusively, on art from the Metropolitain Museum of Art and MoMA, sharing their insights about paintings and sculptures from all eras. While some smARThistory podcasts provide only an audio commentary one can listen to while looking at a static image of the artwork, others are more dynamic and include supplementary materials.<br /><a title="smARThistory" href="http://www.smarthistory.org/blog/" target="_new">smARThistory</a></p> <h3>For the musician: Uncensored Blues</h3><br /><p>If you've got the blues, this podcast might just cheer you up. Produced in association with the Delta Blues Museum in Clarksdale Mississippi, Uncensored Blues shares tracks from rare pre-war blues albums. With music from Blind Lemon Jefferson, Leadbelly, and other blues legends, each podcast explores variations on a musical theme, such as "Hard Times" or the "Black Snake Moan."<br /><a title="Uncensored Blues" href="http://www.purplebeech.com/blues" target="_new">Uncensored Blues</a></p><h3>For the chef: ReMARKable Palate</h3> <p>This podcast, part of the Gilded Fork's Culinary Podcast Network, is hosted by personal chef Mark C. Tafoya. Besides sharing recipes, Tafoya interviews chefs, food writers, and gourmets, and takes listeners behind the scenes of popular restaurants.<br /><a title="ReMARKable Palate" href="http://www.remarkablepalate.blogspot.com/" target="_new">ReMARKable Palate</a></p>All Things Jenniferhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09356153780672927550noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11397068.post-6729352304175071572007-05-15T22:43:00.000-05:002007-05-15T23:05:27.758-05:00BooksWho can resist a multi-colored book meme? <a href="http://welcometotheconfessional.blogspot.com">Thanks Stacy</a><br /><br />All I have to say is holy crap, what are some of these books and who reads them?<br /><br /><a href="http://welcometotheconfessional.blogspot.com/2007/05/new-and-improved-book-meme.html"><span style="font-weight: bold;"></span>New and Improved Book Meme</a><br /><br />Directions:<br /><ul><li>Use blue font for everything you’ve read </li><li>Use red font for everything you’ve started but never finished </li><li>Use purple font for everything you’ve read but wish you hadn’t </li><li>Use yellow font for everything you’d never read, even you and that book were the only things to survive the apocalypse </li><li>Use black font for things you’ve never read</li><li>Use green front for things you want to read </li><li>Use orange font if you’ve read the author but not that particular work</li></ul><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);">The Bible</span><br />Medea, Euripides<br />Oedipus Rex, Sophocles<br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 153, 0);">Odyssey, Homer</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 153, 0);">The Canterbury Tales, Geoffrey Chaucer</span></span><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><span style="color: rgb(0, 153, 0);">The Inferno, Dante Alighieri</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);">A Midsummer Night’s Dream, William Shakespeare</span><br />Tartuffe, Moliere<br /><span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);">Pride and Prejudice, Jane Austen</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);">The Rime of the Ancient Mariner, Samuel Taylor Coleridge</span><br />The Eve of St. Agnes, John Keats<br />Frankenstein, Mary Shelley<br /><span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);">Wuthering Heights, Emily Bronte</span></span><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);">The Scarlet Letter, Nathaniel Hawthorne</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 153, 0);">Moby Dick, Herman Melville</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 153, 0);">Great Expectations, Charles Dickens</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);">Little Women, Louise May Alcott</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 153, 0);">War and Peace, Leo Tolstoy</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 153, 0);">Madame Bovary, Gustave Flaubert</span></span><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">The Count of Monte Cristo, Alexandre Dumas<br /><span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);">The Awakening, Kate Chopin</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 0);">The Turn of the Screw, Henry James</span></span><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, Lewis Carroll</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><span style="color: rgb(0, 153, 0);">Ulysses, James Joyce</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);">Anne of Green Gables, L.M.

Kite Runner</i> author <strong>Khaled Hosseini</strong> returns to Afghanistan in his much-anticipated second novel, <i>A Thousand Splendid Suns</i> (Riverhead, May 22). It's the story of two women who are both married to a man hardened by his culture's misogyny. "I haven't witnessed such unanimous inhouse enthusiasm since <i>Life of Pi</i>," says Parsons. "It reminds me of how Jeffrey Eugenides exceeded sophomore expectations with <i>Middlesex</i>. The film version of <i>The Kite Runner</i> in late 2007 will also help make this the year of Hosseini."<br /><br />I would like to read this one, I enjoyed the Kite Runner.<br /><br />2. With <i>1000 Places to See Before You Die</i>, which has 2.2 million copies in print, <strong>Patricia Schultz</strong> hit on a golden formula. Now, North America is the focus, in <i>1000 Places to See in the USA & Canada Before You Die</i> (Workman, July). "Whether planning an actual trip or just dreaming of someday, this is a great way to spend a summer day," says Halley.<br /><br />Hey, even if I find a few fun ideas this one might be worth glancing through at B&N.<br /><p>3. For stressed-out parents, actress <strong>Christie Mellor</strong> calmly explains how to harness the energy of toddlers-gone-wild in <i>Three-Martini Family Vacation: A Field Guide to Intrepid Parenting</i> (Chronicle, June). "Her first book [<i>The Three-Martini Playdate</i>] was hilarious, in an 'I know I shouldn't be laughing at this, but heee!' kind of way," says Halley, "and we did very well with it."</p><p>Oooh Three Martini Playdate is FUN STUFF. This should be a good read (and present for my mommy friends!)</p><p>4. Hipster alert: <i>Dishwasher</i> by <strong>Pete Jordan </strong>(HarperPerennial, May), creator of the eponymous zine, tells of his 12-year mission to wash dishes in all 50 states and how he abandoned it for love. "I think it'll do well with the McSweeneys/<i>Found</i>/<i>Postsecret</i> crowd," says Donaghy.</p><p>Well, hipster alert indeed. WASH DISHES in 50 states? Um, yeah.</p><p>5. <strong>Barbara Kingsolver</strong>'s <i>Animal, Vegetable, Mineral: A Year of Food Life</i> (HarperCollins, May) is the bestselling novelist's memoir of a year spent procuring and cooking local food (HarperCollins, May).</p><p>Already out and wishing away on my wish list...<br /></p>All Things Jenniferhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09356153780672927550noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11397068.post-25369137549420708002007-05-14T08:35:00.000-05:002007-05-14T08:36:34.472-05:00Too busy for books?<img src="http://www.dailylit.com/images/dailylit_logo.gif" /><br /><br />Read them by email (or RSS).<br /><a href="http://www.dailylit.com/learnmore" class="slogan">Learn more.</a>All Things Jenniferhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09356153780672927550noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11397068.post-79544025261695837692007-05-08T08:03:00.000-05:002007-05-08T08:05:05.921-05:00More books!

She then explains how she regularly screens her 15-year-old daughter's total media intake, because "there are things she's not mature enough to handle, or are simply wrong for her."

The pleasure we derive from the written word is unique in that we must labor for it. Other forms of art provide us with stimulus and ask nothing more than our emotional response. Reading is an active pastime that requires an investment of emotion as well as our concentration and imagination. The words we read are merely a starting point for a process that takes place largely within our minds and hearts. </span></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:verdana, helvetica, arial;font-size:85%;"><span style="font-size:85%;"> There are few activities as comforting, relaxing, and healthy as perusing the pages of a good piece of fiction or nonfiction. Curling up with a book and a cup of tea is one of the simplest ways we can remove ourselves from the confines of reality in order to immerse ourselves in the drama and intrigue of the unfamiliar. The pleasure of transcending reality is only one aspect of the reading experience, however. Each time we read for enjoyment, whether we prefer the fantastic nature of fiction, the empathy awakened within us by memoir, or the instructive passion of nonfiction, we create entire landscapes in our mind's eye. The books we choose provide us with the inspiration we need to accomplish such a feat, but it is our own creative reserves that empower us to use our imaginations for this unique and beautiful purpose.<br /><br />The tales you lose yourself in can lead you on paths of discovery that take you out of your own life and help you see that existence can unfold in an infinite number of ways. You can learn so much from the characters and mentors who guide you from page to page. Your emotions are awakened each time you read, allowing you to become vessels of the passion that pours forth from line after line of print. Ultimately, the books you absorb-those that touch you deeply-will become a part of who you are, providing you with a rich and thrilling world within that you can revisit anytime you wish by simply closing your eyes. If you haven't read a book for pleasure lately, try and allow yourself the time-you deserve it. </span></span>All Things Jenniferhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09356153780672927550noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11397068.post-1201852635292520212007-05-03T11:28:00.000-05:002007-05-03T11:34:37.447-05:002007 Summer BooksAh, just more to add to the neverending "to-read" list!<br /><br /><a href="http://www.usatoday.com/life/books/news/2007-05-02-summer-books-sellers_N.htm">From USA Today</a><br /><br />"It is a spectacular season for book lovers, and literary fiction in particular will take center stage," says Brad Parsons, Amazon's senior book editor.All Things Jenniferhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09356153780672927550noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11397068.post-45153565866330442722007-04-27T11:20:00.000-05:002007-04-25T23:22:05.356-05:00101 Essential Freelancing Resources!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://freelanceswitch.com/general/101-essential-freelancing-resources/"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 228px; height: 293px;" src="http://freelanceswitch.com/images/101.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a>All Things Jenniferhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09356153780672927550noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11397068.post-25595283665180335062007-04-25T22:06:00.000-05:002007-04-25T22:08:05.415-05:00<a href="http://www.creativenonfiction.org/brevity/index.htm"><img src="http://www.400words.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/04/brevity.jpg" /></a><br /><br />"Edited by the mysteriously-named Dinty W.
