The English poet Wystan Hugh Auden was born 100 years ago this week. He wrote over 400 poems, and he was always known by his initials – W H Auden. When he was young, he was a radical, both in his politics and his poetry. But – like many of us – he became more conservative as he grew older. A lot of people did not like Auden or his poetry. In particular, they criticised him because he left Britain to live in America during the Second World War. But some of Auden’s poems have remained very popular. One of them is called Night Mail. There is a link from the podcast website to a site which has the full text of the poem. I am going to read you only a few bits. There is a grammar and vocabulary note for the podcast. It is on the website, and – as an experiment – I have also posted it as a pdf file which you should be able to download direct from iTunes. (You will however need Adobe Acrobat Reader on your computer). How did the poem come to be written? In the 1930s, the Post Office decided to make a short film about the mail trains which carried letters and parcels overnight between England and Scotland. The composer Benjamin Britten wrote music for the film and the Post Office asked W H Auden to write a poem as part of the commentary. The Night Mail was one of the famous “travelling post offices”. The men and women who worked on the train sorted the letters and parcels as the train travelled through the night. The Night Mail was of course pulled by an express steam locomotive. It was a magnificent sight as it thundered northwards. Auden’s poem began: This is the Night Mail crossing the border, Bringing the cheque and the postal order, Letters for the rich, letters for the poor, The shop at the corner, the girl next door. Pulling up Beattock, a steady climb, The gradient’s against her, but she’s on time. Auden tells us about the letters which the train was carrying: Letters of thanks, letters from banks, Letters of joy from girl and boy, Receipted bills and invitations To inspect new stock or to visit relations, And applications for situations, And timid lovers’ declarations, And gossip, gossip from all the nations.. Of course, letters were much more important to people in the 1930’s than they are today. Today we keep in touch with friends and relatives by telephone or e-mail. Most of the letters I receive are what we call junk mail – catalogues for things I don’t want to buy, special offers on car insurance and mobile telephones. At the end of the poem, Auden tells us about the people all over Scotland who are still asleep and dreaming. But they shall wake soon and hope for letters, And none will hear the postman’s knock Without a quickening of the heart. For who can bear to feel himself forgotten?

Photoshop Video Add to iTunes | Add to YouTube | Add to Google | RSS Feed Whether you’re new to Photoshop, or have been using it for a long time… these tips should help you become even more proficient. Keep sending in those top five lists! When trying to fade an image, do not change the opacity of the layer use the eraser tool. This is because if you have more than one image on one layer, you can have the different images a different opacity level. To do this click on the eraser tool and go to the top tool bar (unless you have moved it), lower the opacity, and erase. You can also use this to blend images and get rid of “boxyness” (when the image is square and you want it more roundish) if that makes sense. When cropping full images do not use the eraser tool, use the vector tool. It is much more accurate and only cuts out exactly what you need. The eraser tool, in my opinion, should only be used for fading and touching up images, but never to do a full cropping job. ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS! Be aware of what layer you are selected on. I’ve seen other people many times and myself start using the vector tool to crop out images, only to find out I was on the wrong layer and had to redo it all over again. You may also run into problems if you want to flatten two layers, but select the wrong ones and find out later when it is too late that your layers are now messed up. When using the magic wand tool, remember that it really isn’t magical. If you are using it too get rid of an unwanted background, make sure that you close up all of the openings of the wanted image. This can be done rather easily by using the pencil tool. Always put images on different layers. This will give you more freedom t change the way the images are placed in the final image. If you put them all on one layer, you can usually never change it much. Easily Make Ecovers In Minutes - EcoverMaker Turbo. Edit Your Digital Photos Using Photoshop. 3d Ecover Actions For Photoshop.
