Page meets stage

Poetry can move–it has not found its eternal resting place on the pages of high school English curricula. Its rhythm can flex, its stanzas can shift, and it can transcend its printed medium. But when lines that once travelled across a page are carried on the back of a soundwave, do they change? Is a poem any different when analyzed under a meticulous eye or heard from the mouth of some velvet-voiced speaker? Regardless of the vehicle of delivery, poetry is meant to be enjoyed. And enjoying poetry means different things for all of us: a poem may simply bring you a singular moment of clarity and happiness, or on a grander scale, closer to the truths you seek.

Black Friday and Cyber Monday put retailers on top

Every year, the Friday after Thanksgiving is when retailers open up stores with special sales and promotions for holiday shopping. The term “Black Friday” has been used because retail stores usually have enough sales this Friday to place them “in the black”, or having more profits than losses.
The superstore Target had doorbuster deals for as low as $5 and $10, starting at 9 p.m. Thanksgiving night. At 5 a.m. on Friday morning, Wal-Mart opened their doors with great deals on everything from electronics to jewelry. Deals like these attract people looking to save some money on holiday gifts. In fact, a record 59.1 billion was spent shopping this Thanksgiving weekend according to learnvest.com.
