An exploration of art as a form of making and mobilizing knowledge...
"This is a project about place and the particular knowledge tied to it, emerging from it, and guiding our relations to it. It is a project very much about who-knows-what-where, so where we are is foundationally important. The 'where' of these conversations is the ancestral homeland of the Beothuk and Mi'kmaq."
Miawpukek—The Middle River is Chapter III of Towards an Encyclopedia of Local Knowledge, the art-and-knowledge project of artist-scholar Pam Hall.
Presented in English and Mi’kmaq, the latest chapter in this ambitious series presents a remarkable and respectful collaboration between an Indigenous and non-Indigenous artist, deepening and diversifying our understanding of the intergenerational knowledge of a Mi’kmaw community in Newfoundland.
This volume presents a fragment of the local place-based knowledge gathered by Hall and artist Jerry Evans. From canoe-building to berry harvesting, from preparing moose nose to foraging for natural medicines, from stewarding eel populations to reclaiming language and traditional cultural practices, Towards an Encyclopedia of Local Knowledge, Chapter III - Miawpukek—The Middle River vividly presents the rich, place-based knowings and doings of this Indigenous community on the south coast of Newfoundland.
Co-published by Memorial University Press and Breakwater Books Ltd, Chapter III is available now.

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. - Volusia County Beach Patrol is preparing for a busy weekend as large crowds are expected with the Fourth of July falling on a Saturday.
After South Florida announced it's closing its beaches for the weekend, Captain Tamra Malphurs said it’s too early to know if that will lead to an influx at Central Florida beaches.
Regardless, they’re preparing for the crowds holidays normally bring.
“It’s too early to tell, you know. This just happened, but we here in Volusia County do expect large crowds. We do expect people to flock to the beaches this weekend. It’s Fourth of July weekend and it’s a tradition,” she said.
FOX 35 News reached out to Volusia County on Monday to see if it was considering closing down or limiting access to the beaches like South Florida did.
“At this time, there are no plans to close Volusia County beaches,” said spokesperson Kevin Captain.
in the meantime, Francisco Duran hit the sand on a Monday to avoid the crowds and plans to stay away during the holiday.
“Pretty risky,” he said. “That’s why I try to avoid the beach on holidays...the big crowds.”
He said he has friends in Miami that plan to make their way this way after the beaches closed.
“Friends over there in Miami, they’re pretty much going to hit Orlando Daytona too,” he said.
Cpt. Malphurs said full-time staff along with part-time staff will be out in force.
“70, 80 part-time lifeguards out there on towers and also part-time people on ATVs patrolling,” she said.
Beach patrol is asking people to social distance and visit less busy access points.
“With Fourth of July comes everything. “We have medical calls. We have water rescues. We have a lot of stuff we have to deal with, so we really need people to be responsible,” she said.

The Grenada Solid Waste Management Authority (GSWMA) is concerned that the presence of illegal dumpsites can contribute to the presence of the Chikungunya disease in Grenada.
Speaking on a local current affairs programme, Public Relations Officer of GSWMA, Myrna Julien said that the breathing of mosquitoes no longer just bring about Dengue worries but also Chikungunya.
The disease, which is contracted similarly to that of the Dengue, has affected over 100,000 people throughout the Caribbean and has resulted in 14 deaths.
Julien noted that something has to be done to reverse the problem of illegal dumpsites.
“We ought to put measures in place to ensure that we do not encourage the breathing of the aedes egypti mosquito.
We have been safe so far but we can’t consider ourselves too safe,” she cautioned.
According to Julien, now that the rain season is coming, it prevents the perfect conditions for the breathing of mosquitoes.
“I believe that the National Water and Sewage Authority (NAWASA) might be really happy for the rains that have been happening but there are concerns as to the existence of the illegal dump sites out there and the presence of vessels that would encourage the collection of water, clean water which is ideal for the breathing of mosquitoes…”, she said.
“…We just need to have one case of someone (affected by the disease) coming in on the island and it can become quite a challenge for us here in Grenada to try to control or eliminate (the virus),” she explained.
Julien pointed out that once Grenada has its first diagnosis of Chikungunya, it would be difficult to maintain a low average.
She said: “Most of the Caribbean islands where the disease was diagnosed, the numbers have really gone out of proportion and we are concerned here even though measures have been put in place by the task force to ensure that if it enters our country that our medical teams are able to handle it but one case coming in here is too much and the existence of one illegal dumpsite on the island is an illegal dumpsite too much,” explained Julien.
The Authority, she said is also concerned about a rise in Leptospirosis as illegal dumping sites are great contributors to the breathing of rats.

Beige. Why beige when there is yellow? We call it a warm color. Like the sun that warms us after submerging ourselves in the cool of blue water. So deprived of sunshine we are in the Pacific Northwest, yellow seems even warmer to me than it did in Illinois. And I celebrate it, just as we in the Northwest celebrate the sun’s even short appearances with a name: a sun break. In the company of yellow, I am optimistic. Like how riding with my mother in her yellow Ford Escort station wagon when I was a teenager, windows rolled down, music blaring, on our way to the Indiana border to buy fireworks made me more optimistic about our troubled relationship. I wonder if my mother had celebrated yellow if it would have made her more optimistic. Would it have been enough to help her overcome her past—the abuse she suffered at the hands of her father and then later, the men she chose to replace him—and to see that she did not have to remain in the black of her childhood, the weight of this heavy color holding her down, preventing her from getting out of her bed on her darkest days to be the mother she wanted to be and the one I needed her to be?
Warm. Yes, yellow is warm. Like my mother-in-law, whom I call my real mom. She exudes warmth, extending it to all those around her, as far reaching as the sun’s rays. She embraced me with it. It was the warm compress that eased the pain caused by my own mother. The buoyancy of the yellow that surrounded her pulled me out from under the heaviness of my own difficult childhood and allowed me to bask in her sunshine-like cheerfulness.
Beige. Why beige when there is blue? I have grown very fond of blue. Sky Blue. In the Northwest, there are few days in the year that we wake to a blue sky, and the most beautiful shade of blue is that that immediately follows the gray that hovers over us in the morning and just as frequently, in the afternoon. There are times I look at the sky and mentally lighten the shade until I see my grandfather’s eyes, greeting me with the same friendliness as the newly-blue sky. It was his eyes, with their happy lightness, that guided me through my dimly lit childhood. I saw the world not through my mother’s or grandmother’s eyes, or even my own brown eyes, but through his hopeful ones. I would study his blue eyes as he reminisced about his time in the military, which took him to both the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. When he spoke of the saltwater air and took deep breaths in as if he could still smell it, I could see the ocean in his eyes and I knew that someday, when I was old enough, I would leave my dysfunctional family and move to the blue ocean so I could smell it, too, and this left me with the same feeling of hopefulness my grandfather had.
Beige. Why beige when there is pink? Dogwood Pink. It makes its first appearance in the springtime, right in my front yard. The view of the tree from my living room window is obstructed by the green of a rhododendron almost as tall as my house, making me forget it is there until I step out onto my front porch and there, it welcomes me to spring in a way that only bright pink can. I linger on my porch, taking a break from writing in my office, and find myself getting lost in the tree, allowing it to replenish my creativity and energy. When the pink blossoms are in full sunshine, I am transported back to a sunny day in my grandfather’s office. There, not long after I began living with my grandparents after my mother abandoned my brother and me, he took out his paint samples and invited me to choose a color, any color, I would like to have my bedroom painted with. It took only a few moments to spot it: Flamingo Pink. And just like with my dogwood, I found myself forgetting my bright pink bedroom was there, until I needed a break from my alcoholic grandmother, and upon entering my room, it welcomed me to a happier season—to Spring—than the rest of the rooms in the old farmhouse seemed to be in.
Beige. Why beige when there is green? Nature’s favorite color. And nature first introduced me to it by showing off the green of her corn that surrounded my childhood, fields of green stopping only to meet the blue sky at the horizon. How boring I thought that view of flat green earth was as I grew into a teenager. I wanted to be surrounded by the blue of water instead. It took four years of being an adult to work up the courage to move where I knew no one. I headed out west, to Seattle, but nature could not wait for my arrival at the Pacific Ocean to impress me. She wanted to try her hand at green again, so she presented me with the green foothills of the Cascade Mountains and with giant conifers, extending upward, and stopping only to meet the blue sky above.
It took another twenty years for me to appreciate nature’s first offering of green. Although I am still enamored with the breathtaking scenery of green hills and trees so tall they pierce the clouds, they obstruct my view of the horizon. There are times I am acutely aware of this and feel claustrophobic. I want to be back in the middle of the flat green cornfields I found so boring, to view them stretching before me and all around me, and to be left with the feeling of having endless possibilities, a feeling only a wide open space can provide, with nothing coming between me and the horizon.
Beige. Why beige when there is red? I am inclined to say it is one of my least favorite colors, but then I am reminded of my grandparents’ red barn. Whereas the bright pink of my bedroom was my indoor escape, red was my outdoor escape. It was my playground and although my grandmother had the tendency to lash out verbally when she was drinking, her voice could not reach me from the distant house. The barn was a world unto itself. It had long been absent of farm animals, but their presence could still be felt. I could smell them, almost see them, some of them horses in their individual stalls, gazing out the small windows and absorbing the view of the green earth before them, longing to be there, running free under the yellow sun in the blue sky, to a field of bright pink flowers, far, far away from rooms painted beige.

“This is the hill I will die on”
We have many strong feelings about peanut butter. It’s one of those things that can totally change your perception of even your closest friends — like finding out they don’t believe the moon landing was real, they hate kittens or that they face the showerhead when they shower. You can’t go back.
So that’s why we asked you, our discerning readers, for your thoughts. To settle the Great Peanut Butter Debate once and for all.
Except…it’s not really settled. Let’s dig in.
We love peanut butter. (Or at least, the folks responding to a survey about peanut butter do.) Of the 515 people who answered the call, 94% of you rated it 6 out of 10 or higher. Yes, over 100 of you have it coming it at 10, or “most important food group in my life.”
Now to get into it. With so many peanut butter fans, where do we fall on creamy vs. crunchy, one of the great dividing lines of our culture?
Squarely half and half. Cheers to the ONE person who said their favorite kind is the one with jelly swirls in it.
This 50:50 breakdown of creamy vs. crunchy is somehow comforting. There are still some mysteries in the world that can’t be decided, some cultural debates we can innocuously keep on having, some wonders of this earthly life that can continue to fuel our human curiosity.
Unless you’re these people:
“Only monsters eat crunchy peanut butter — butter is in the title, it should be smooth. You don’t want lumps of fat in your regular butter do you?”
“People who like smooth peanut butter are serial killers”
The debate continues.
We asked you to choose your most loved PB brand. No wishy-washing here, it’s time to stick to your guns. And the winner is **drumroll** Jif! Followed by Trader Joe’s brand (who knew, maybe for convenience sake) and Skippy behind that.
Apparently we missed something called Teddie (which is hard to get around here so good luck on that anyways) and Whole Foods peanut butter that’s artisanally hand pressed before your eyes.
But you all had much more to say than just casting your vote. Here are some of the best comments we got:
From the natural peanut butter lovers:
- “Peanut butter should not have added sugar, this is the hill I will die on.”
- “Whole Foods Honey Peanut butter is manna!!!!!!!”
- “That jif shit is hella gross. I just want some peanuts crunched up, no sugar, no weird texture.”
- “I buy the “peanuts and salt only” kind, but that inevitable layer of oil at the top ruins me. If you pour it off, your peanut butter turns to chalk. If you attempt to mix it in, oil goes everywhere and your peanut butter stays just a smidge too oily. There’s got to be a better way.” (←someone help this poor soul)
- “Do not be afraid of oil separation. It isn’t alien phlegm.”
- “WHY IS IT SO HARD TO FIND PEANUT BUTTER WITHOUT PALM OIL”
From the sugar/trans fat appreciators:
- “the best pb has a little bit of sweetness, unsweet pb is basically like eating sandy paste”
- “I think people who like crunchy are more open to compromise because you still get the butter part no matter what. Also natural peanut butter is gross and is on a total different level than sweet processed PB.”
- “Crunchy and whatever is cheapest! Trans fats= worth not having to stir my PB”
- “Organic PB is disgusting and shouldn’t be considered the same food group.“
From the salt-lovers:
“Unsalted peanut butter is an abomination.” (Yes, yes it is.)
From the person who took a survey on peanut butter because they hate peanut butter:
“Peanut butter is one of the most vile substances known to man. If you held a gun to my head I’d choose crunchy over smooth, but I would still only barely be able to choke it down.”
Insights from one astute Jif Whips fan:
“Jif Whips (easier to spread, in a wide-mouth tub) is the PB of the future. Much like Beta video tapes, Apple computers, and Pepsi, though, it seems doomed to also-ran status despite superior quality.”
Ad slogans we ❤ from the one person who truly loves Peter Pan:
“Peter Pan peanut butter, makes you young like forever buy it
Peter Pan peanut butter, you can fly if you eat it and wear tights
Peter Pan peanut butter, buy it those other shmears are pirates
Peter Pan peanut butter, Peter Pan peanut butter
Peter Pan peanut butter, your dog Nana will love that shit
Peter Pan peanut butter, now an animated film beloved by millions
Peter Pan peanut butter, because everyone needs some whimsy on their sandwich”
Some heated thoughts on almond butter:
“Look. Totally unrelated but not: almond butter is incredibly offensive and if it was up to me I’d set the every single jar in existence on fire.”
Some pro-tips on consumption:
- “What’s the best way to eat PB? on a spoon”
- “PB + banana sandwiches are legit. Don’t @ me.”
- “When my brother and I were little, Mom used to occasionally give us “peanut butter lollipops” as a treat — which is a fancy way of saying “peanut butter on a spoon”. It’s delicious any way you eat it”
Some pro-tips on how NOT to consume, thank you:
“One time as a child I lost a tooth while eating a PB&J. Any time I’ve accidentally had crunchy since then it evokes the sensation of eating my own teeth — take that crunchy lovers!”
The way we should live our lives:
‘My PB Rule: If I trust you with driving my car, you may double dip a spoon into my peanut butter jar.”
A new controversy arises:
“JIF and GIF are pronounced the same way. Get over it. “
A question we’ve contemplated many times:
“Why doesn’t it come in even bigger jars?”
Finally, something we can all (mostly) agree on:
“PEANUT BUTTER IS THE BEST AND THIS SURVEY IS V V V IMPORTANT”
We think so too.

The reasons inducing the Committee to devote their attention to the extreme south-eastern portion of the county are set out in the preface to the eighth volume. That volume was originally intended to comprise the history of the ancient and undivided parish of Tynemouth, extending from the mouth of the Tyne to the mouth of the Blyth. An unexpected abundance of material derived from the Public Record Office, the muni ments of the Duke of Northumberland, and private collections, made it necessary to depart from the original project and to divide the work. Accordingly the Committee determined to withhold the account of the ancient chapelry of Earsdon, and did this with the greater readiness, inasmuch as a rich treasure of historical information regarding Seaton Delaval, the most prominent township in the chapelry, existed in the Delaval muniments of the Marquis of Waterford preserved at Ford castle.
This plan was adopted, and, after mature consideration of alternatives, it was decided to add to the account of Earsdon a description of the ancient chapelry of Horton. It is true that the history of this latter district has already been told by the Rev. John Hodgson in the History which forms the starting-point of the present series. That historian, how ever, had not access to the Delaval manuscripts, which have enabled the story of the manor and township of Horton to be retold with greater fulness. Moreover, it was impossible to give any satisfactory account of the busy seaport of Blyth if Horton chapelry had not been included, for one half of the town stands within its confines: Judged by outward appearance, a more uninteresting district can scarcely be found in the county. Any natural beauty that it may have once possessed has, in the course of the last century, been well nigh destroyed by working the rich coal seams that underlie its surface. It has but one beautiful feature left — the glorious stretch of white and yellow sands that borders the North Sea.

CLEVELAND -- The Cleveland Cavaliers spent time and money to bolster their roster ahead of the stretch run of the regular season and NBA Playoffs, which begin next month, but the injury bug bit one of their additions, center Andrew Bogut, early in Monday’s loss to the Miami Heat.
Just one minute into his Cavaliers career, Bogut suffered a broken left tibia after a leg-to-leg collision with an opponent who was driving to the basket, and now, Cleveland (42-20) has to look for other options as it pertains to finding interior depth.
Here are several players whom the Cavaliers could choose to add to their roster should they elect to continue bolstering the lineup.
The 6-foot-11 native of Fort Pierce, Florida, spent five years with the Milwaukee Bucks, most recently during the 2014-2015 season, ironically enough playing part of that time alongside Bogut before personal issues led to his departure from the NBA.
After entering a program for anxiety and depression in the days following his release from the Bucks in February of 2015, Sanders took the time necessary to make personal changes and announced earlier this year the desire to resume his basketball career.
Over 233 career games with the Bucks, Sanders averaged 6.5 points, 5.8 rebounds and 1.8 blocks while playing 19.8 minutes a night.
Earlier this season, Sanders had a tryout with the Cavaliers.
In order to replace Bogut, the front office may not have to go far, as GM David Griffin could promote the 6-foot-10, 249-pound Moreland from the NBA D-League’s Canton Charge.
In 34 games for the Charge, the No. 3 team in the Central Division, Moreland has averaged a double-double of 13.5 points and 11.6 rebounds to go along with 1.6 steals and a team-leading 2.2 blocks over 33.0 minutes a night.
After working his way to back from a torn Achilles tendon that brought to an end his 2014-2015 season six months early, Varejao struggled to find a consistent spot in the rotation under both of the Cavaliers’ head coaches last year, David Blatt and Tyronn Lue, and as such, was traded to the Portland Trail Blazers in a three-team deal that brought sharpshooting power forward Channing Frye to Cleveland.
Before the trade, Varejao played in just 31 of the Cavaliers’ 52 games, averaging only 2.6 points per contest, by far the lowest single-season scoring output of his 11-year career.
The longest-tenured Cavaliers player at the time of the trade, Varejao averaged 7.6 points, 7.5 rebounds, 1.2 assists and 0.9 steals in 591 career games with Cleveland. Known for his hard-working, aggressive style, Varejao was a fan favorite and one of the most well-liked teammates within the Cavaliers’ locker room.
Following a buyout from Portland last February, Varejao signed with the Golden State Warriors, whom the Cavaliers defeated in The Finals last June. Varejao has since been waived by the Warriors, and because the release came before March 1, he is eligible for postseason play.

Tracing the origin of hybrid text across cultures: The influence of Edgar Allan Poe’s genre experimentation on Baudelaire’s invention of the prose poem
À la recherche de l’origine du texte hybride à travers les cultures : le jeu d’Edgar Allan Poe avec les genres et son influence sur « l’invention » du poème en prose par Charles Baudelaire.
L’un des traducteurs d’Edgar Allan Poe parmi les plus importants en France, Charles Baudelaire, a absorbé les idées et le style de son alter ego américain. L’article analyse la forte attraction réciproque, inhérente à l’œuvre des deux écrivains. Il trace les parallèles perceptibles en ce qui concerne l’expérimentation avec des genres différents. En outre, il se propose d’éclairer les allusions que Baudelaire fait à l’œuvre de Poe dans ses Petits Poèmes en prose. Il traite des affinités biographiques, intertextuelles, thématiques et stylistiques entre les deux œuvres.
Cross-cultural genre expansion: The influence of Edgar Allan Poe’s use of hybrid text on Baudelaire’s conception of prose poem.
As one of the first significant translators of Edgar Allan Poe in France, Charles Baudelaire absorbed the ideas and writing style of his American alter-ego. The paper analyzes an astounding cross-cultural reciprocal attraction inherent in the works of both writers, tracing parallels in genre experimentation, exploring allusions to Poe in Baudelaire’s prose poems and shedding light on biographical, intertextual, thematic and stylistic affinities.
1As one of the first significant translators of Edgar Allan Poe in France1, Charles Baudelaire became so immersed in Poe’s writing, theories and style that it became difficult even for him to pinpoint where Poe’s identity differed from his own: “La première fois que j’ai ouvert un livre de lui, j’ai vu, avec épouvante et ravissement, non seulement des sujets rêvés par moi, mais des phrases pensées par moi et écrites par lui vingt ans auparavant2.”
2Both writers reveal strikingly similar biographies as well as reciprocal interest in the language and culture of the other.
3Though the reception was unilateral since Poe never got a chance to meet Baudelaire, the American’s interest in France and the French language manifests itself in his writing. Two of his best known tales are set in France and many stories use French names, or even titles such as “The Duc de l’omelette”. Poe, who, like Baudelaire, was fond of spreading rumors about himself (and who left it to posterity to decide whether or not there was any truth to them) claimed he had been to France. Alexandre Dumas even confirmed that Poe visited him in Paris in 18323. Biographers have found no evidence thereof. Despite this, Baudelaire and the Symbolists received the writing of the Francophile poet and prose writer warmly and to this day some critics believe his writing has a greater impact in France than in the United States. T.S. Eliot once stated caustically that Poe appealed to the French because their disability in perceiving fine nuances in the English language prevented even the most educated of Frenchmen from realizing that the American author’s writing was in fact, as Harold Bloom would later state, of “a badness not to be believed”4.
4Regardless of how poorly Poe’s works may have been received in the eyes of a few of his contemporaries and critics, Poe stands out as one of the greatest literary minds of America in the 19th century. Even today it would be difficult to find a high school student who is not familiar with Poe’s “The Raven.” This poem is one of the few translated by Baudelaire, who mainly focused on the tales5. It provides an excellent example of a nascent generic change that may have influenced Baudelaire.
5Though “The Raven” is lyric in nature as it rhymes and follows established, though unusual schemes of versification, it tells a story, almost bordering on fiction. This in itself is not a novelty. Many romantic ballads or even medieval poetry served such a purpose. As Abrams points out, “the prose translations of the poetic books of the Old Testament in the King James Bible […] approximate the form that in the nineteenth century was named the prose poem.” As examples of prose poems he cites Baudelaire’s Petits poèmes en prose, Arthur Rimbaud’s Illuminations (1886) and “passages in Walter Pater’s prose essays, such as his famous meditation on Leonardo da Vinci’s painting Mona Lisa in The Renaissance (1873)”. Abrams defines prose poems as “densely compact, pronouncedly rhythmic, and highly sonorous compositions which are written as a continuous sequence without line breaks”6. This definition would apply to Poe’s Eureka, though not to the ‘Raven’, since the latter uses line breaks, characteristic of poetry.
6However, the style, tone, and some of the words employed in the “Raven” strongly remind one of prose. Here Poe, though still fundamentally a poet, begins to experiment with genres subtly. The opening lines: “Once upon a midnight dreary” are a take on the classical “once upon a time”, which announces the beginning of a fairy tale, a prose genre. “Midnight dreary” constitutes a precise time reference analogous to the more vague expression “time” used in the above expression characteristic of fairy tales. Surely one would assume that the choice of such a first line was no coincidence. The use of a raven capable of speech as an allegorical representation of the student’s melancholy, or else as an embodiment of Satan is also unusual in a fairy tale; the talking beast reminds us vaguely of the animals in Jean de La Fontaine’s seventeenth century fables, though in the case of the beast fable animals are more loquacious and represent human types7.
7The style of the poem is reminiscent of prose, especially the use of complex words and sentences such as:
For we cannot help agreeing that no living human being
Ever yet was blessed with seeing bird above his chamber door-
Bird or beast upon the sculptured bust above his chamber door
with such a name as “Nevermore”.
8Ironically, in his expository work The Philosophy of Composition, Poe considered “The Raven” to be hispoem par excellence, which should serve as a model for writing other poems. Is The Philosophy of Composition to be read literally, or are most critics just taking Poe too seriously? Perhaps here, as in many other instances, he was trying to broaden his readers’ horizons, to challenge established notions of what constituted the genre “poetry”.
9At one point, Poe admits that though his use of rhythm and metre may not be original, his idea of combining “octametre actalectic”, “heptameter catalectic” and “tetrameter catalectic” as lines into a stanza is unprecedented: “Now, each of these lines taken individually has been employed before, and what originality the “Raven” has, is their combination into stanza; nothing even remotely approaching this combination has ever been attempted”8.
10Though not explicitly referring to generic expansion here, Poe is making the reader aware that lines or elements that do not seem combinable can be employed at will freely. One must dismiss old notions of versification to allow for the new to follow. As we will soon see, Baudelaire would later share strikingly similar discoveries with his readers. It is noteworthy that Baudelaire’s two translations of “The Raven” resulted in prose versions of the poem.
11Poe establishes rules only to break them later on. He does not adhere to his own ideas of what constitutes an ideal poem in many of his works. Some of his descriptions of how he had gone about writing “The Raven” are surely exaggerated, explicit to the point of seeming sarcastic. According to Thomas Mabbott, Poe “admitted freely that his Philosophy of Composition… was not expected to be taken as a literal truth”, although his “intentions [were] serious” and though it “may [have been] true that he planned the antepenultimate stanza first”9. If Poe’s manual on how to write a poem does not merely contain purely serious considerations as most critics in the past have assumed, one can begin to think whether Poe was deliberately taking himself too seriously to provoke his contemporaries. If one is not convinced that this is the case, one should consider that he abandoned his own principles when he wrote Eureka, which according to Poe’s preface was to be judged as a “poem only” by posterity. This text constitutes a more audacious attempt at genre experimentation. Its considerable length by far exceeds what Poe set out in his The Poetic Principle. According to Poe, “a long poem does not exist.” If a poem is too long, one loses sight of its unity and reading it becomes tiresome. Why would he write a poem that contradicted his own terms?
12The subtitle of Eureka is “A Prose Poem”, which is a clear indication that Poe was deliberately seeking to hybridize the genre “poetry”. He was aware, that this “poem” was going to be prosaic in nature. Not much remains of Poe’s previous notions of poetry. While his earlier combinations of prose and poetry into one genre were subtler, as in “The Raven” or as in the case of his blatant insertion of poems or passages of poems into his prose or tales, Eureka is a revolutionary declaration, underlined by the very meaning of the title itself, “ I have found it!” Perhaps Poe is suggesting that alas, he has found the key to the future of poetry, namely, that in order to be innovative, one must mix genres and registers. It would not have been the first time that Poe was revolutionizing literature. By many, he is called the founder of the detective story; some even go so far as to call him one of fathers of science fiction. Blending of genres can be found throughout his tales and his expository writing. He weaves poems and dramatic dialogues into his tales, mixes registers and even languages. Once again this provocation is deliberate, sometimes even announced bluntly by a title, such as in the case with “The Duc de l’omelette”, where Poe mixes English and French. When one analyzes the sources Poe used in writing many of his tales, many of them are French. For example, Saint-Pierre’s Etudes de la Nature inspired “Sonnet-To Science”10.
13It is not surprising that an American with such a bohemian mindset who used European settings and the French language for his tales, should appeal to Baudelaire. It was not merely as a translator that Baudelaire discovered the American writer. He identified with his counterpart to the extent of vampirizing the former, of absorbing Poe’s work completely as a foundation for his own. Baudelaire’s creative process was to some extent, reinvention. Though he developed a unique, memorable style, Baudelaire owed a great deal to his literary forefather.
14What Poe had begun subtly, the blending of genres, prose and poetry, fact and fiction, the provocative yet sympathetic direct addressing to his readership to win them over or else to test the extent of their gullibility, Baudelaire took to new heights. He was bold enough to call an entire anthology of his texts “Prose poems”, thus making clear that he was creating a new genre, a genre that combined elements of two genres, which stood in opposition according to the traditional division of literature into prose, poetry and drama.
15In his dedication to his publisher, Arsène Houssaye, preceding the anthology Le Spleen de Paris, which also bears the alternative title Petits poèmes en prose, the French poet makes a case for writing prose poems, listing all of their advantages when one compares them to classical poems: “Considérez, je vous prie, quelles admirables commodités cette combinaison nous offre à tous, à vous, à moi et au lecteur”. He compares the prose poems to a snake which has neither head nor tail and can be taken apart at any time, reassembled and nonetheless understood: “Enlevez une vertèbre, et les deux morceaux de cette tortueuse fantaisie se rejoindront sans peine. Hachez-la en nombreux fragments, et vous verrez que chacun peut exister à part”. In this dedication the Frenchman acknowledges his debt to the poet Aloysius Bertrand, whose work Gaspard de la Nuit had inspired him. One should question the sincerity of such a dedication, which, though it precedes the anthology as we know it today, may not even have appeared in the work had the prose poems in fact been published in book form during Baudelaire’s lifetime11. The dedication familiar to us was a “canevas”, or draft found in Baudelaire’s carnet notes. However, one must keep in mind that Baudelaire broke with his addressee, the editor Houssaye, since the latter refused to publish the fourth selection of prose poems. Though Baudelaire pays his compliments to Houssaye, calling him “mon cher ami” and mentioning that even his editor had attempted to write a prose poem, the Vitrier, Baudelaire himself would write a prose poem entitled “Le Mauvais Vitrier”, which according to Karlheinz Stierle was written as a deliberate provocation12. Furthermore, Baudelaire claimed with false modesty that he realized as soon as he had written the work, that it could not live up to that of his role model, Aloysius Bertrand. He then established himself as a pioneer, by stating that he had instead created something entirely new and different “by accident”13. He further advertised his “invention”, calling it a miracle: “Quel est celui de nous qui n’a pas, dans ses jours d’ambition, rêvé le miracle d’une prose poétique, musicale sans rythme et sans rime, assez souple et assez heurtée pour s’adapter aux mouvements lyriques de l’âme, aux ondulations de la rêverie, aux soubresauts de la conscience?14 ”
By choosing the insignificant and unknown Bertrand as his official role model, Baudelaire could easily establish his own superiority. The chances of anyone knowing Bertrand were slim, and his prose poetry could surely not live up to that of Baudelaire. Acknowledging Poe as an influence would have implied a greater risk. There was a chance that Baudelaire might remain in his shadow. If one gives Baudelaire the benefit of the doubt, perhaps the influence was too obvious to be worth mentioning, or else it was subconscious, but it seems that he was deliberately trying to appear more original by refraining from mentioning his alter-ego. He makes a case for his own creativity by excusing himself, stating that what he had written had little to do with what he had intended to write from the onset and that it was entirely different and revolutionary: “je m’aperçus que… je faisais quelque chose… de singulièrement différent”15.
16Baudelaire’s prose poems may be unique, but they owe a great deal to Edgar Allan Poe. First, one will recall, that Poe subtitled Eureka “A Prose Poem”, coining a term that Baudelaire would later choose to appropriate when he gave his anthology Le Spleen de Paris the alternative title Les Petits Poèmes en Prose. Just as Poe had mentioned that he had done something innovative by combining lines in a new way in his Philosophy of Composition, Baudelaire believed he had created something entirely new and unexpected with his prose poems, as we saw before. Strangely and perhaps wisely, he refrains from acknowledging his debt to Poe in his prose poems. However, these poems reveal some striking parallels and allusions to Poe’s works. Obviously, Baudelaire was incredibly familiar with Poe when he wrote the prose poems in 1869, having translated much of his work.
17The twelfth prose poem in the anthology, “Les Foules”, is inspired by Poe’s short story, “The Man in the Crowd.” While he does not do so in the prose poems, in his essay on Constantin Guys, Baudelaire acknowledges that he used Poe’s tale as a source: “Vous souvenez-vous d’un tableau (en vérité c’est un tableau!) écrit par la plus puissante plume de cette époque, et qui a pour titre L’Homme des foules?”16 Baudelaire’s “Les Foules” can be read like an interpretation, a comment on Poe’s story. In both the prose poem and the tale, the protagonist enjoys dipping into and out of other people’s thoughts, becoming drunk in this universal communion, “communion universelle” as Baudelaire puts it. In Poe’s The Man of the Crowd, the narrator, who had been ill, is now convalescent and in the best of moods– a mood so happy that it is the “converse of ennui”. The narrator’s attention shifts from his own interior world to the outside world. He begins to observe groups of people who share common interests he distinguishes in the crowd, contemplating gamblers, clerks, pick-pockets and “modest young girls returning from long and late labor to a cheerless home” just to name a few. The protagonist is able to empathize with these people. He believes he has the ability to “read, even in that brief interval glance, the history of long years.” Suddenly, his attention becomes riveted to a single man, his contemplation proceeding further and further inwards. The protagonist’s only goal from this point consists in understanding the man, whom he follows through the streets of London as his subject ambles aimlessly about. When finally, at the wake of the second evening, he accosts the wanderer, staring him “steadfastly in the face”, the man fails to notice the protagonist. He concludes that perhaps it is for the better that the man is not decipherable. He calls him the “man of the crowd”, stating that some people are like books that are unreadable. In the case of the people this may be a good thing, since such people bear the worst evils of humanity in their souls.
18In “Les Foules”, Baudelaire described a poet, who unlike most men, is able to thrive in a crowd: “jouir de la foule est un art”. He then refers to multitude and solitude as synonyms, and this is also reminiscent of Poe’s tale, where the man of the crowd remains anxious and alone in the crowd, for the narrator observes something “even more intense than despair” on the “countenance of the singular being whom [he] had watched so pertinaciously”17. Just as the narrator delights in observing the crowd, so in Baudelaire’s poem, the lone wanderer rejoices: “Le promeneur solitaire et pensif tire une singulière ivresse de cette universelle communion18”. For the poet, this prostitution of the soul when it gives itself completely to a stranger is so orgiastic that love seems pale in comparison.
19“La Fausse Monnaie” illustrates Baudelaire’s philosophical solidarity with Poe. This prose poem relates the story of two friends, one wealthy, the other of moderate means, who are approached by a beggar who surprises them by succeeding at instilling incredible pity in them. While the first person narrator (the man of moderate means) gives a small amount, his wealthy friend surprises the beggar by giving him an apparently incredibly valuable coin. This coin, he soon reveals to his friend with satisfaction, is fake. He is pleased with himself at having done evil, and the narrator thinks about all of the consequences the action brings with it. He concludes that though his friend was obnoxious, his deed is more excusable than if he had not been aware of his evil nature: “on n’est jamais excusable d’être méchant, mais il y a quelque mérite à savoir qu’on l’est: et le plus irréparable des vices est de faire le mal par bêtise.” Along with Poe and de Maistre, Baudelaire is taking the opposite stance of Rousseau, who believed in the goodness of mankind. For these authors, human nature is innately evil19.
20 A striking parallel to Poe lies in Baudelaire’s choice of title for the prose poem “Anywhere out of the world”. It alludes to a line from Thomas Hood’s Bridge of Sighs, which Poe had cited in The Poetic Principle. Baudelaire’s poem deals with escapism, a soul that wants to escape anywhere out of its familiar surroundings, possibly even through death. Poe cites Thomas Hood’s poem in full, stating that its “vigour is no less remarkable than its pathos.20” It relates the sad and sudden death of a homeless young girl who drowned in a river in the cold month of March:
Mad from life’s history,
Glad to death’s mystery,
Swift to hurl’d-–Anywhere,
anywhere out of this world!21
21The harsh reality of life, of the here and now and the need to escape by means of revolt, drugs or death is common to both Poe and Baudelaire.
22The affinities above are striking and one could go on to trace many more parallels to Poe in Baudelaire’s prose poems. The influence of Poe on Baudelaire’s prose poems is perhaps disregarded, because usually, Baudelaire is credited with having invented the prose poem. In general, the French author enjoyed associating his literary reputation with that of Poe. Regardless of his intentions, he neglects to mention that he is indebted to Poe for this innovation as well. Perhaps he considered himself so akin to the American that he no longer deemed it necessary. Throughout his life, he had always defended his literary forefather from what he considered to be unjust accusations, even rewriting essays he found that placed Poe in a negative light as a man, thus assuring his idol’s success in France. By leaving it to posterity to discover the hidden “correspondences” which he did not explicitly reveal, Baudelaire was assuring that his literary legacy would be at least as significant as Poe’s. Perhaps towards the end of his life, he was beginning to feel that he was in secret competition with his literary forefather, Edgar Allan Poe, and that at least to some extent, he had to break free.

Tropical Storm Gamma is in the Gulf of Mexico, but it’s not anything for the northern Gulf Coast to worry about.
The same can’t be said for another tropical system farther to the south, which was designated Potential Tropical Cyclone 26 on Sunday.
That system was in the central Caribbean south of Jamaica on Sunday afternoon. It’s not organized enough to be considered a tropical depression -- yet -- but will bring some of those same effects to Jamaica and Cuba, where watches and warnings have been issued.
More worrisome, the National Hurricane Center is forecasting it to become a hurricane by Wednesday near Cuba and head in the direction of the U.S. Gulf Coast.
The hurricane center began issuing advisories on the system on Sunday. As of 4 p.m. CDT it was located about 90 miles south of Kingston, Jamaica, and was moving west-northwest at 10 mph.
Potential Tropical Cyclone 26 had top winds of 35 mph. It needs winds of at least 39 mph and a defined center of circulation to be considered a tropical storm and get a name. The next name on the list is Delta.
The hurricane center issued a track map for the system on Sunday afternoon and it shows the storm passing near or over the Cayman Islands on Monday night, then over western Cuba by Tuesday afternoon or evening. It could be a hurricane by then.
The system will then move into the southeastern Gulf by Tuesday or Wednesday and head northwestward.
The hurricane center’s long-range track map shows the potential Hurricane Delta approaching the southeastern Louisiana coast by Friday afternoon. It should be noted, however, that the cone of uncertainty stretches from western Louisiana to the Alabama coast, which means none of those areas are out of the woods.
Forecasters cautioned that there’s a lot of uncertainty about the storm’s track and intensity. Once the system has a consolidated center certainty in the forecast track will start to tick upward some.
The National Weather Service in Mobile was keeping a close eye on the disturbance on Sunday and said it will increase the rip current risk along Alabama and northwest Florida beaches through the week.
“It’s still too soon to pinpoint how this tropical wave will evolve and any potential impacts to the local area (other than the threat for rip currents),” the weather service said in its forecast discussion earlier Sunday.
Watches and warnings have already been issued for areas to the south:
* A hurricane watch is in effect for the Cuban provinces of Pinar del Rio and Artemisa and the Isle of Youth.
* A tropical storm warning is in effect for the Cayman Islands including Little Cayman and Cayman Brac.
* A tropical storm watch is in effect for the Cuba province of La Habana.
Those areas could face deadly flash flooding and potentially hurricane force winds by Wednesday.
TROPICAL STORM GAMMA
Meanwhile to the northwest is Tropical Storm Gamma, which made landfall on Mexico’s Yucatan Peninsula on Saturday and has crossed over it and into the southern Gulf on Sunday.
As of 4 p.m. CDT Sunday, Tropical Storm Gamma was located about 150 miles north-northwest of Cozumel, Mexico, and was not moving at all.
Gamma had winds of 60 mph. It had winds of 70 mph when it moved inland on Saturday near Tulum, Mexico.
The hurricane center said Gamma could start to weaken tonight, although it is forecast to remain a tropical storm through at least Friday.
A tropical storm warning continues from north and west of Cancun to Dzilam, Mexico.
A tropical storm watch is in effect from west of Dzilam to Progreso, Mexico.
Gamma isn’t going anywhere anytime soon. The long-range track from the hurricane center shows Gamma drifting southwestward in the Bay of Campeche through Wednesday. However on Sunday afternoon the track also showed Gamma turning and heading northwestward on Thursday and Friday.
ELSEWHERE IN THE ATLANTIC
The hurricane center was also keeping an eye on two other areas in the Atlantic, but both had low chances of development as of Sunday.
One was over the central tropical Atlantic and as of Sunday afternoon has a zero percent chance of becoming a tropical depression.
The other was farther north about 1,000 miles southeast of Bermuda. It had a window to develop over the next few days, but then conditions will become more hostile for development, and it has only a 10 percent chance of becoming a depression.
The 2020 Atlantic hurricane season lasts until Nov. 30.

The Korean electronics company, which saw its market share in AC shrink significantly from FY16, began importing its premium Wind-Free product range. The two executives expect to increase imports to other AC models and use the AC production facility at their Chennai plant for other products, as the import tariff increase on compressors to 10% from 7.5% it made cheaper imports of complete AC on the basis of FTA.
"However, not all brands would benefit from such imports as Samsung since they do not have a manufacturing base in ASEAN ASEAN nations," one of the executives said. With this, AC becomes the second product Samsung began to import into India after television, in which case also the import of components is more expensive.
Samsung also planned to curb the production of mobile phones, including flagship models Galaxy S9 and Note 9, unless the government had delayed a Make in India plan for smartphone components such as displays and touch panels. The Center has finally postponed the plan to next year.
Samsung India's share of the airconditioner market fell to 5% in the period April-December 2018 from a peak of 13.7% in FY16, as per GfK. At one point he was the second AC producer in India. Like GfK, Tataowned Voltas is now the largest brand on the market with a 22.8% share during April-December, followed by LG India at 17.7%.
An industry executive said that Samsung lost the leadership game after leaving the AC segment with low-priced windows, which accounts for a third of the market and the entry of low-priced brands, including some operating only in the online space.
Also in the divided AC segment, Samsung is following the sales of Voltas, LG, Lloyd, Daikin, Hitachi and Blue Star with a market share of 5.7% during the nine months ended in December, as per GfK.
An industry executive aware of Samsung's plans stated that the company aims to grow faster than the market this year to recover some lost ground and will launch a new line of AC with "technology triple inverter ". He also said that the import from Vietnam is a marginal amount compared to what Samsung sells in India.
An e-mail sent to Samsung India did not raise any response at the time of Sunday's press.
The government doubled the customs duty on the ACs by up to 20% in September, while also doing commuters on the compressors.
The industry depends largely on imported compressors, which account for 60-65% of the production value of an AC, since the internal capacity does not even cover 30% of total sales.
Meanwhile, the Chinese electrical component manufacturer Haier Group is expanding its compressor unit in Gujarat, while the Guangdong Meizhi Compressor is installing a new compression plant, industry executives said.
