Where the Sidewalk Ends by Shel Silverstein (1974) vs Tiger on a Tree by Anushka Ravishankar (1997)
Every so often, a new author tackles the work of expanding a classic novel to expand its reach. Even more rarely, they succeed beautifully. This week's book, Adventures of Mary Jane is just such a rare gem. Mary Jane's author, Hope Jahren, is a scientist (a geochemist, no less) who decided to write the story of Mary Jane, a character that haunted her from the pages of Twain's The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn her entire life. It is both a magical adventure story and an authentic and well written coming of age drama. This week's bookstore is Where the Sidewalk Ends, which is also run by two generations in tandem. We talk to them about how they do it…and we commiserate on working with daughters and parents. Join us.

Sticking with 20th Century Fox film noir, we fast-forward a few years from Road House (1948) and talk about Where the Sidewalk Ends. Directed by Otto Preminger and starring Dana Andrews and Gene Tierney, this one is a reunion for the same trio that brought us Laura six years before. With these immensely important figures in film noir, along with highly noir story filled with dark settings, characters, and themes, this 1950 film is especially representative of the classic era.

A singer-songwriter, cartoonist, screenwriter, award-winning children's writer, and actor, Shel Silverstein grew up in Chicago. He started out as a cartoonist before turning to children's books. Silverstein is the author and illustrator of numerous books, including The Giving Tree (1964), Where the Sidewalk Ends (1974), A Light in the Attic (1981), and Falling Up (1996). His books have been commended for their appeal to both adults and children.Silverstein's poems are often darkly humorous, irreverent, and populated with invented characters, such as the “Bloath” in Where the Sidewalk Ends, who dwells “[i]n the undergrowth” and “feeds upon poets and tea.” Silverstein's poems and stories are accompanied by his simple yet energetic pen-and-ink illustrations. The Giving Tree, a fable about a lifelong relationship between a boy and a tree, has become a classic in the canon of children's literature and has sold over five million copies.-bio via Poetry Foundation Get full access to The Daily Poem Podcast at dailypoempod.substack.com/subscribe

Have you ever wondered about the labyrinthine world of celebrity drama? This episode promises to rattle your perceptions as we shed light on the mystery surrounding Britney Spears' memoir, 'The Woman and Me.' We discuss the potential controversies her memoir might unleash about her relationship with Justin Timberlake and the allegations that have been swirling around for years. Next, we challenge your understanding of global affairs, with an unfiltered look into the ongoing crisis in the Gaza Strip. We dissect the media's one-sided narratives, examine the harrowing impact of the Israeli government's actions on Gaza's population, and discuss the surge in anti-Semitic hate crimes. This isn't an easy conversation, but it's a necessary one, and we're committed to deepening our understanding together. But it's not all controversy and conflict. We also delight in sharing our thoughts on a 2020 Gelso Rosso red wine, its unique notes, and how it complements a zesty pasta dish. We also dive into our latest entertainment obsessions, from Norm Macdonald's comedy to the anime Demon Slayer and the campy slasher movie, 'Totally Killer.' Then there's Julia Fox's revealing memoir, 'Down the Drain', and some darkly humorous poetry from Shel Silverstein's, 'Where the Sidewalk Ends'. So pour yourself a glass of your favorite vino and seize the opportunity for an engaging and enlightening conversation.

In the last Music Meditation message this week, Central's Pastoral Intern, Justin Arnold, will share the song "Carry Me, Carrie," performed by Dr. Hook & the Medicine Show. You will be surprised that Shel Silverstein, best known for his children's books, The Giving Tree, Where the Sidewalk Ends, and A Light in the Attic, authored the entire album containing "Carry Me, Carrie."In the message, Vicar Justin points to Matthew 17:20, "He (Jesus) replied, 'Because you have so little faith. Truly I tell you, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there,' and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you.'" Vicar Justin reminds us that if we allow Jesus to carry us, God will, one day at a time, move mountains like depression, anxiety, pain, and brokenness. As we allow Jesus to carry us, our entire life becomes a mission field because as we let Him love us, His love also works through us to love others.

With time running out, Dixon must confront his own demons while unraveling the truth, putting his own life and the lives of those close to him at risk.

Today we talk about you Where the Sidewalk Ends!James Anthony Fraude said “You cannot dream yourself into a character; you must hammer and forge yourself one.” ― I had big dreams when I was a kid. I was going to do something important and make a difference in the world. But, once my addiction took over, my childhood dreams were gone, and making a difference or contributing anything useful to society, no longer mattered. When I finally made it to the rooms, I found a group of former misfits who had righted their wrongs and were traveling roads of meaning and substance. Not only that, many of them had created new, brilliant lives, setting magnificent courses for destinations unknown. Thankfully, they took me under their wing, and gave me the strength and direction to do the same. And what a ride it's been! All these years later, I'm stepping off the sidewalk again, and forging another new, beautiful, uncharted path. If you've strayed off the path or come to the end of another road, don't give up! We're here for you and will do whatever we can to help you successfully navigate your next adventure.So enjoy the ride!Today we close with the 11th Step St Francis Prayer Meditation from Alcoholics Anonymous.Access Free Recovery Resources: RecoveryHQ.com/Resources Use the Recovery HQ Meeting Finder Visit Sober Surgeries: SoberSurgeries.com Follow us: Instagram, Twitter, YouTube, Facebook Contact us: Support@RecoveryHQ.com or (800) 533-6166

You're listening to Artbeat Radio, a program of Able ARTS Work. Morgan: On this episode of Art Beat Radio, EPI student Greco will be asking drama instructor Imani some questions about a movie the EPI students are working on. Greco (asking about the music choice in the movie/play): Imani, tell me about the music and play on the computer Imani: So, some of the songs that I picked were like songs that either made me feel a certain type of way, or I knew off the top of my head that they would be good songs that went with the action in the movie. Um, some of them were my favorite songs. And then you'd also be very surprised with key words like happy, or something angry, or whatever what google or YouTube will bring up for you. So, I found this playlist of 79 instrumentals that everyone knows but no one knows the name of and then I went through all of them and there was a lot of songs on there that just made me laugh or like, provided some kind of reaction and when I started watching some of our edits back I thought that they would be good matches for our videos. So there's a lot of those that I picked. Greco (asking about the Silverstein poems chosen for the movie/play): Imani, what do you like about the poem? Imani: They were always poems that really resonated with me as a kid, and I thought they would be a good jumping off point with introducing our clients to acting stuff. So I, I felt like they were important because they resonate and they're written for children, but they also resonate with adults as well. They have a lot of different stories and meanings to them, and I thought that that could be a cool way to create a show. Greco (asking about the poems that were chosen to be a part of the movie/play): How did we chose those poems? Imani: We kind of just went one by one through each poem. I asked everyone: how did they feel about it; did it create a reaction for them; did it bore them; did it make them excited. And that's kind of how we did our selection process and ended up with 18 to 20 that we have. We wanted to make sure that we had a collection of ones that brighten people's spirits but also like, made people think as well. Which I really expressed was important to me that the students do because, you know, it's always great to have like a happy thing, or you know, sometimes a sad thing, but I also want to have things in there that make people think or that make people question like life and even the show. And so, we made sure to incorporate all of those things. Greco (asking about Imani's experience with filming and how she taught her students about filming): How did you learn to film; how did you teach me and my peers? Imani: Honestly I kinda just want to laugh and cry both at that question. Um, I'm an actress so like, I know what it's like to be on set and film movies; the only situation is I'm used to being in front of the camera and not behind it. So this whole process has been a learning experience for me and my students. We've both been kind of in the trenches together just like, figuring things out as we go, and they've had a chance to learn how to do things with the camera and so have I simultaneously. So, we're just, we're sticking it out together right now. Greco (asking what was the most fun part of this whole process of creating the movie): What is the most fun for you? Imani: I think watching my students like open up and getting to portray different characters. I know a lot of people were really nervous when they first started this process and didn't really trust me or trust how it was gonna go, and thought that it would be really hard. But everybody seems to be having a lot of fun as they go along, and they like getting the chance to play different people. And they've had a pretty fun reaction to seeing themselves on screen. So, I like being able to give them that. Greco & Morgan: Thank you ladies and gentlemen from EPI! *Outro music by Artbeat Radio staff* We hope you enjoyed this episode of Artbeat Radio.

Nikki & Brie are very excited to welcome this week's special guest, the mysterious poet Atticus. Brie kicks the episode off by telling the unexpected way she discovered his work, sharing that connection to his work and Nikki's deep love of poetry that started as a child in the pages of Winnie the Pooh and Where the Sidewalk Ends, leading her to write her own poetry. He's the creative force responsible for song lyrics, tattoos, inspiring Instagram posts, and New York Times best-sellers; he is Atticus. From an unknown location, the enigmatic poet joins The Bellas to talk about his upcoming book of poems, LVOE, his connection to Paris, what inspires him, how wine shapes his words, getting engaged in a wildly romantic way, the reward for embracing vulnerability, and how a famous actor from Hollywood gave him the nudge he needed to share his gift with the world.Atticus cherishes his ability to experience life without being recognized, leading to an interesting conversation about fame, recognition, privacy, and how that influences his work. This conversion leads to a strong vibe with a lot of creative ideas flying around involving wine, travel, poems, and Bellas!

Nashville is growing fast, but as a city largely designed around cars, its pedestrian infrastructure is seriously lagging. Only about 19 percent of Nashville streets have sidewalks. A callout to WPLN listeners yielded some common themes: too many streets and neighborhoods with no sidewalks, making for dangerous walking conditions; and too many gaps between existing sidewalks. In 2020, a Metro report identified 71 so-called “priority miles,” where sidewalks were needed most urgently, but the timeline to get those sidewalks built is 20 years long. Metro also identified another 1,900 miles of “greatest need” sidewalks — and a total of 4,700 miles of missing sidewalk segments across Davidson County. How do we fill these needs as the city continues to grow? But first, WPLN political reporter Blaise Gainey has the latest on redistricting and what it means for the upcoming elections. Guests: Blaise Gainey, WPLN political reporter Quinn Howard, Murfreesboro resident Matt Hertz, Nashville resident Cathy Carrillo, Education and Engagement Manager at Walk Bike Nashville Emily Benedict, Metro Council member, District 7 Diana Alarcon, Director, Nashville Department of Transportation and Multimodal Infrastructure
Poetry can sometimes feel like an acquired taste, like maybe you either love it or you don't. But what many of us find as we pursue a contemplative life is that poetry can become a helpful way to slow down and take a nice, long look. We sometimes find that poetry becomes a doorway to being able to drink in that present moment. So join us as we talk about the power of poems to aid our engagement of the world around us using our senses, emotions, and intuitions.

Lisa and Kate Reynolds, a librarian from Canada, discuss The Giving Tree by Shel Silverstein. They discuss the meaning of the book, which most say portrays a parent and child relationship. But many believe it portrays a dysfunctional relationship.Kate is known as the Lavender Librarian and is an openly autistic and queer librarian from Canada. In 2021, she founded Storytime Solidarity to create inclusive StoryTimes that welcome everyone. You can find her on Instagram, Facebook and Twitter. Links discussed in the show: This article delves into unusual facts about The Giving Tree including the fact that it was initially turned down by a publisher and Silverstein dedicated the book to an ex-girlfriend. Many pieces have been written about the picture of himself that Silverstein chose because children have been scared of the picture. There are Reddit threads dedicated to this very subject, and it was discussed in The Diary of a Wimpy Kid fandom.Books Discussed: · Thank you, Omu! by Oge Mora· The Homework Machine by Dan Gutman· The Rabbit Listened by Cori Doerrfeld · Where the Sidewalk Ends by Shel Silverstein· A Light in the Attic by Shel Silverstein· Diary of a Wimpy Kid by Jeff Kinney For more information, find Lisa on Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, and her website. *The book titles mentioned include affiliate links.

“So, some temptations may be so culturally conditioned that they need to be named as not temptations to something bad at all. Others truly are harmful to ourselves and others … and .. they are still not referenda on who we are and our worthiness and lovability. They are signs of a deeper hunger that can be sated, a deeper bondage from which we can be free. And our task – together … always together … is to attend to them so we can get to the wound that really needs to be treated, the hole in our heart that really needs to be filled.” Sermon by Mike Kinman from worship at 9:00 a.m. on Sunday, March 6, 2022 at All Saints Church, Pasadena.

Fire In Paradise Welcome to The Guys Review, where we review media, products and experiences. **READ APPLE REVIEWS/Fan Mail**Mention Twitter DM group - like pinned tweetRead emailsTwitter Poll Fire In Paradise Directed by: Zackary CanepariDrea Cooper Starring: Joy BeesonBeth BowersoxAbbie DavisHiyori Kon Released: November 1, 2019 (Netflix) Budget: No Info Box Office: No Info Ratings: IMDb 7.4/10 Rotten Tomatoes 83%Metacritic NONE Google Users 74% Fire in Paradise premiered at the 2019 Telluride Film Festival. It also showed at the 2019 Hamptons International Film Festival, where it won the Audience Award for Best Short Film. First time you saw the movie? Plot:The film opens with shots of a tranqual forest, and Paradise, California, population 26,561, cut in with home videos of people doing day-to-day activites, while a voice over gives a safety alert for fire conditions. PG&E could cut power for safety. Nov 8, 2018, 6:16am, Ray Johnson, wearing a firefighter shirt, says the news stated it was going to be windy day, and could produce fires. So he stationed himself at the water tender at Station 33, and that he felt the day didn't feel right. Cut to a call center and a woman stating that night shift is 7pm to 7am and that it was quiet that night. Beth Bowersox said a call came in around 5:30am that her supervisor took, from a PG&E employee, about a Pulga Fire. Dacia Wiliams describes laying in bed with her kid, and her mom had taken other children to school, and said they saw smoke. 7:16am, 911 calls are played about the Pulga fire. Fire fighter Sean Norman speaks about hearing calls about a fire, and how he had to get on the road to come help. Beth dispatched the fighers and named it "The Campfire" due to regulations and guidelines...and how it seemed like a normal fire, at first, but her faces drops and follows with, "it got bad, real quick." As we see video of fires and power lines. 7:19am. Driving through town, Mary Ludwig speaks about getting to school and the frenzy it was in, and how quickly the sky turned orange. Sgt. Rob Nichols talks about meeting with his partner, in their car with Ash raining down. 7:29am, calls of smoke everywhere. Beth says it still seems normal for a fire, and more calls play of people reporting smoke and fire, and are told to evacuate. Beth states a co-worker took a call for a house fire in Paradise, and she is suprised. 7:41am: the 911 call for paradise plays. 7:45 minutes start counting up and more 911 calls play of paradise residents calling in fires. S:-I remember hearing about this fire, but to see people who live there talk about it, its obviously very dramatic. Ofc. Nichols speaks about a spot fire in the middle of town. Cut to a house burning wildly, and flames shooting everywhere with a woman talking about her house being on fire. Dacia speaks about getting stuck in traffic; and waiting over 40 minutes, and that it's not normal. Video of a man and dog waiting in traffic. Ray talks about seeing the ploom of smoke coming at him and how eerie it was, like a monster. Cut to a shot of the smoke, and it is massive. Rays wife Jennifer talks about evacuating and seeing all her neighbors and friends around her, trying to get out, and how unreal it is. Mary speaks about kids being outside and the wind being so strong, branches were falling on fire. The kids are then evacuated on the school bus. Abbie Davis, a teacher, talks about getting on the evac bus with the kids. Mary was scared about getting on the bus with the kids, and even said she didn't want to, but did. And how the first corner they hit, there was fire and they were stuck in treaffic. Cut to video of people driving surrounded by everything on fire. Abbie speaking about being next to McDonalds and it caught on fire. And then it went completely black. Ray talks about his wife scraming and crying, cut over someone filming trying to calm people down surrounded by fire. Madeline Johnson, Ray and Jennifers daughter, talks about trying to stay calm, and being fucking brave, that she wasn't going to die. As Naoh, her brother, talks about praying, all this while showing film of someones car having flaming branches fall on it with someone scraming, and flames all over the road. More 911 calls and Beth telling people to get out, that they don't have anyone to come and help them. Joy Beeson talks about getting out with her son, and how he pushed her out of the way of a falling tree. Beth gets choked up talking about taking calls with people who are afraid and how hard it was to have to hang up and take more calls. S:-The timeline of the story is a little weird here for me, if everyone is evacuating, shouldn't they go get their kids too? And why were kids outside if FLAMING BRANCHES are literally falling from the sky?-That bit with Madeline... man... That got me. Esp with the footage they played. Like, obviously they survived...but my God. The fear. 9:35am. Abbie and Mary speak about the exit ramp being on fire, and the first feeling of deep hopelessness. The kids started falling asleep, so they created some homemade filters. Abbie tells Mary she doesn't think they're going to get out. They prayed, and they prayed to die of smoke inhalation, and went back to work. 10:42am. Nichols talks about getting to Clark and Skyway, and how bad of an intersection it is. Total gridlock. And the firewall is coming straight at them. A video of Nichols talking to a guy in a car telling him they're stuck, and the man looks scared and asks if they're going to be ok. They then start telling everyone to abandon their cars and evacuate on foot. Joy tells of balls of flame, like from the bible, falling around them. They cut to video of a fire tornado. They move everyone to a large parking lot. Sean talks about realizing they're not going to be able to put this fire out. So they start breaking into buildings to put people in them, as the field behind it was a propane strage field, and they started to explode. Sean described it as war. Dacia tells how the fire fighters told them they're surrounded, and the only way to survive would be laying down on the concrete. She speaks about prying with her child under a blanket for hours. Finally, the front passed and they were bussed out. Norman tells of driving around, trying to get people out of their houses, as embers are flying and catching more on fire, and they were refusing. So they took them, and wouldn't let them go back when their dog ran off. He knew he wouldn't make it through the fire front, so he started looked for somewhere to go, but there was nothing. So he drove straight into and through the fire front and survived. He gets choked up talking about surviving, and that those people probably hate him, but they're alive to hate him. S:-Speaking of the part where they prayed they would die of smoke inhalation: have you ever had an instance where you thought you could die?-The people being alive to hate him... How ungrateful Shots of burnt out cars, melted cars, burned homes, and some chairs, as avoice over says its been contained 3 weeks later. A flyover shot of where homes once stood, just burned ashes and some reminants where walls once were; as news casters discuss fatalities, and missing persons. We see video of a man walking to a car, telling how he knew the person inside who died, and we see a skeleton; he says he's sorry, buddy. In a meeting, people are being briefed about going out and finding missing people and giving closure to familes. The largest ever search and rescue operation in California. Norman talks about how it was a very unprecidented fire, and fire behavior. He speaks of all the fires that have occured in California and how bad they've been, mass descrution, not being able to control them, fire fighters being trapped and killed. He said the climate has been part of the problem. Ray is cutting down a burned tree, in front of what used to be his house, with only a chimney standing. Jennifer says it's like death and a greeving process. Ray wants to see everything rebuilt, but that it's not the same. Durham, CA, in a temporary school for Paradise students, Mary is teaching. And speaks about being on the bus for 6 hours. We see some drawings the kids have done, and how sad they are. Mary says shes scared to go back. She walks through the burned out school in awe. We see a burnt out forrest, whit some home videos playing over it of happier times. Dacias kids tell her they just want to go home... but she is afraid of what the road would look like. Nichols talks about how there isn't enough housing for all the residents, and we see Joy in some sort of tent/housing. Beth says she hasn't been back to Paradise because of how many people died and are missing, but trying to figure out where to go and what to do next. She's worried people will forget with more disasters. Shes visably shaken. It cuts to black, and texts that reads: the camp fire killed 85 people, making it the dealiest wildfire in the United States in over 100 years. End title card, cut to black, and roll credits, as they display pictures of what I assume are victims of the fire. S:-There is a shot where Mary is walking out from the burned out school, and a mural on the wall of Where the Sidewalk Ends... Kind of apropos, considering. A lot of things ended, but there can still be life and happiness, like the poems from Shel Silverstien. Where the Sidewalk Ends by Shel SilversteinThere is a place where the sidewalk endsAnd before the street begins,And there the grass grows soft and white,And there the sun burns crimson bright,And there the moon-bird rests from his flightTo cool in the peppermint wind. Let us leave this place where the smoke blows blackAnd the dark street winds and bends.Past the pits where the asphalt flowers growWe shall walk with a walk that is measured and slow,And watch where the chalk-white arrows goTo the place where the sidewalk ends. Yes we'll walk with a walk that is measured and slow,And we'll go where the chalk-white arrows go,For the children, they mark, and the children, they knowThe place where the sidewalk ends. Top Five Trivia of the movie: 5: The Camp Fire was the deadliest and most destructive wildfire in California's history, and the most expensive natural disaster in the world in 2018 in terms of insured losses. 85 deaths, 18,804 buildings destroyed, $16.65B in 2018.4: Ignited by a faulty electric transmission line on Nov 8, 2018,3: Paradise, which typically sees five inches of autumn rain by November 12, had only received one-seventh of an inch by that date in 2018.2: Burned 153,336 acres or 240 square miles1: The fire reached 100 percent containment after seventeen days on November 25 TOP 5Stephen:1 Breakfast club2 T23 Sandlot4 Back to the Future5 Mail order brides Chris:1. sandlots2.
