2012-10-31 - Photo by Ed Waggener. That's Greg Riddle with wife Anita Riddle in front and Adair County Children's Librarian Aleina Milligan, standing. They were set up handing out goodies and giving tours of the new Mercedes Sprinter Bookmobile now in service in Adair County. The Bookmobile is still awaiting a wrap, and Anita Riddle expects the design - a veritable mobile mural, to be a big hit with everyone. The new bookmobile may be off its routes a day or two while the wrap is being done.

Poetry by Robert Stone: Some between, a sonnet

Some Between
A sonnet not written for, but appropriate for Halloween/All Saints Day
Ideas not yet formed and words not said --
creations now exposed and spoken words --
from fledgling falls to flying wings outspread --
some go between impels both us and birds.

The joys of hope and fears of failing plans --
accomplishments at ease and growth with pain --
from childlike faith to grownup doubts and bans -
- some went between the shades that wax and wane.

The growing sense of ignorance with age --
the will to wait hard learned with passing time --
from early bloom to aging's final stage --
some gone between await our fate sublime.

Unequal in all aspects are we made
yet each leaves imprints that will never fade.

- Robert Stone, Sunday, 12 October 2008

And it's shared with all Y'all - the answer to the question :the White or Yellow, Whilow or Yelite Rose color?

JK Stotts writes:
The name of this rose is the Sunny Knockout Rose, when it was originally going to be released it was going to be called yellow knockout but oonce they saw how it turned to a white they changed it. The rose is yellow when budded and opening up but once open turns to white, which makes for a beautiful rose. - JK Stotts

Jon Halsey writes:
Great info. Any plans for a future link to a CM Style Book for other entries?

Also, how goes young Pen's efforts on rendering the Obits section as a searchable entity?

Warm regards on a chilly morn'

- jon
Thanks. - So many have starting helping us by using the "1) Copy/Edit, 2) Copy/Send" method, saving everybody time. If more time were saved doing things the easy way, more of us would have time to live the idyllic Egyptian life of George and Beth, watching for sunsets, checking on the cows and neighbors -or, even better, joining mellow folk pondering it all from the ridgetops of Adair County.. We're still working on the obituaries in a more searchable entity, and we're on top of that new idea, a CM Style Book, by and by. - EW

Site Note: Fast track your next Events announcement

As many of the Events received at ColumbiaMagazine.com are posted as time is available to do so. CM Events capsulize as much essential information as possible as briefly as possible. Publicists can Fast Track announcements by following some simple steps.

Simple 1-2 step way to send events to ColumbiaMagazine.com

A large number of contributors - perhaps a majority - have adopted a submission procedure which has streamlined posts to the CM Events calendar. Their submissions take top priority. They go to the top of the queue (and try as we may, there are always more submissions than we can process). It's a simple 1-2 method:
1) Copy and Edit (Make the changes needed to fit your Event.) from one of CM online Events posts. They are edited to say it the way we say it and the way we post it - in the exact sequence, style, content, even the spacing we use. Small things matter, like the way we say when and event occurs ("5amCT/6amET, Saturday, October 20, 2012"). This is the way we say time, day, month day and year on the site.

After making the changes:

2) Copy and Send, "Special to ColumbiaMagazine.com" addressed only and exclusively (submissions with multiple addressees or through third parties are filtered and likely won't make it online at CM) to edwaggener@gmail.com
Because of the time savings to ColumbiaMagazine.com, submissions handled in this manner are given a higher priority in the queue. If a submission is not posted within two hours, call 270-250-2730. Thanks. - Ed Waggener
