Apparently Jack Teufel, who comes he is certain from another system, another point space-time as it were, and who will appear in a fictionalized account (to protect the never-innocent, above all himself) called FOAM, has begun to write a blog. It can be found here:
The End of the Greeks! Interesting!
I have been reading a graphic novel about the Greeks. The older ones, as you count years, not the swarthy hairy bumblers of the present day who cannot even calibrate their commerce to the moment or the real. Then they fill the streets with cries and shouts, selfish whining clods upset with the world for not devoting itself to their mama-baby-happiness.
But I digress.
The rationality of Greeks, it went away and the mind of society dissolved into a new way of thinking about things for about a thousand years. Not one single Greek or Greek-like other took on apocalyptic stories because they were so absurd. They didn't compute. The rational Greeks could not comprehend the absurd, so the 78% of the human brain, as I think about my own human brain and use it for a template to understand others (how else does a human do it, after all? Mirror neurons and all that), that 78% was disengaged, so I infer that those four fifths of the lobes and folds unused by the Greeks were tuned in that detour into the "supernatural" (which is natural) and the "paranormal" (which is normal), tuned to the architectonic structure of something more than space-time and therefore opened the portal to the deep transformational power of that realm … they could not comprehend that. Nor understand the necessity of entering absurd worlds in order to leapfrog tiddlywinkwise the limitations of their "upper-level" thinking.
The challenge then to the one reader reading these words – you! I mean – is to entertain those worlds, enter into the images of those wild-assed imaginative adventures, while at the same time not believing too much in what you must believe in order to do that.
This practice requires a precarious balance on the cusp. That takes practice, yes, looking at where the water goes and not at the rocks. Then you can go where the water goes.
Humans in their twenty-first (ha!) century are on the cusp again. They have been on the cusp before. Many times, in point of fact. They think of it as a fork in the road but it is more like standing at five or six points and having more choices than binary thinking allows. Regardless of what humans choose, this time, if you do not factor in that crazy realm with harlequin colors spattered throughout, in which richer reality resides, then you doom yourselves like the Greeks to a dead-end. You will hit the wall with the kind of splat! with which my graphic novel is filled.
Splat! Pow! Wham!
Such creative evocative words from the pens and inks of tale-tellers, emphasis when needed, to make exclamatory points. And yes, I the casual reader from a different system, approve this message.
But why, you may ask, do such thoughts fill my head, even before the first latte or cappuccino of the day? On which I now depend to kickstart my brain?
This is why …
Heidi came by after her massage class. I could smell the scented oil on her hands and reflect with regret that I was not the body on which those hands worked their supple magic. She is learning massage in fact, not as a pretense to bring the lonely client to a come, after which he is lonelier than before. She studies the magical arts of the ancients in order to reiki their major centers even when they don't know it.
When she bustled into the coffee shop in her blue parka, the furry hood up, her eyes full of light, exuding life and a warmth for which we in this deadly cold city must otherwise wait many months, I felt an updraft, a warm springlike breeze and I smelled the scent of blossoms despite the icy streets outside. That was a new feeling and I log it here for reference. In what you call the "future."
She told me of an exchange of energies with her sample client that was for once reciprocal. It moved like a loop of infinity, an eight on its side, from her hands through the energies arranged as a body and back through her hands to her brain. That was pretty interesting, in itself. Could she discern the meaning or intent of the energy? I asked. She thought for a pretty little moment, then shook her bleached blonde middle-aged head—young middle-aged, she makes me say, late thirties, we pretend. No, not that I'm aware of, said the woman onto whom I latched from the moment I rose on the steps at the station, tired from my long journey from Utah and beyond. Ah ha, said her new fond friend (that's me). Then the energy never turned the corner. Never became information, I mean. That is quite a primordial experience, good for building on but not an end in itself.
Uh-huh, she said, as if she understood. Which she could not do, of course, until it does turn into information that she can receive and integrate into her thoughts as best she can. That for some reason made her speak of religions (you see the link with the prior page) and why she can not belong to one. She was ready to confide that the men to whom she like a magnet went boing! sprong! and bounded toward their attracting force, a Lorenz attractor as it were which she could never reach, had used or abused her, one way or another, some with subtlety and guile, playing with her brain, one bad actor more overtly with the back of his dastardly hand, so she was reluctant to enter into systems headed by domineering men like Jesus or Mohammad or Moses, all of whom could be … well, she paused, insufferable, as we were discussing, because they felt so superior to normal human beings like me.
She went on in that vein with energy and vigor for quite some time. But this is what I noticed most.
My body as I mentioned was already trained by her skillful hand to crave and expect sex, to love the rituals she made, building through subtle interaction until I was well inside her spell, every time I saw her. But it was quite a while, sitting there and listening, before I even thought of that. Before I thought of sex, I am saying. Huh! I said to myself. I had fallen into listening, don't you see, and in my attentive focus, was attuned to my friend Heidi and her alacrity of spirit and her energy and strength and the way her face, so animated, tickled me quite pink. And in that attentiveness, my dick did not even stir, not for a while, as I said, because I was lost in the folds of her soul. Manifesting itself in words and gestures and demeanor, all at once. When I realized that, of course, it sprang to life, but it did not seem right to act on the impulse. Whoa! I said to myself. Because that too was a new thing.
This seems worthy of remarking. It seems important to me as I continue to try to understand humans from within their own frame. A frame I try at the same time to build out into dimensions they cannot comprehend as we interact in a casual manner, spylike so they don't suspect they are being played, like pulling a single point on the screen slowly with my mouse and watching the rhombus on the monitor change how it defines … everything.
Everything. I am saying. Everything that is.

America loves football. The NFL rules Sundays. Therefore, Concussion, a film that suggests that the sport lied to fans for years about the dangers of playing football, was going to have trouble attracting an audience regardless of how well constructed it was. The NFL ignored the complaints of thousands of former players in order to protect their brand, but in the process it has become a beloved conglomerate worth more than $40 billion. Few want to see a film that tells them how bad football can be.
It's 2005, Nigeria-born Dr. Bennet Olamu (Will Smith) works for the coroner's office at Pittsburgh's Allegheny County Hospital. Dedicated to his work, Olamu talks to his patients while determining their cause of death. One day, he receives the body of local Steelers legend Mike Webster (David Morse), who had committed suicide. Upon examination, Olamu discovers an unusual amount of protein in his brain. As the film portrays, Webster had been one of the NFL's greats, having played for fifteen seasons, and been a part of four Super Bowl winning teams. Before his death, according to the movie, he sold his Super bowl rings and was living in a truck, getting high on Super Glue.
As time passes, Olamu examines several more former NFL players who exhibited strange or erratic behavior shortly before their early deaths. He concludes that they are suffering from brain trauma that arose as a result of repeated blows to the head. Coined CTE (chronic traumatic encephalopathy) the good doctor was shocked that the NFL didn't want to hear about his findings. In fact, the league did everything they could to discredit him, giving special focus to the fact that Olamu wasn't even an American citizen. He begins receiving death threats because of his work. Luckily for Olamu, he has the help of his boss Dr. Cyril Wecht (Albert Brooks) and the former team doctor for the Steelers, Julian Bailes (Alec Baldwin), who do their best to guide him through the mind field of publicity, while balancing threatening phone calls and FBI involvement. Both Brooks and Baldwin do fine supporting work with the limited material they had to work with here.
Will Smith's portrayal of Olama is the strongest aspect of Concussion, by far, it's a shame he's let down by scattershot material. Written and directed by Peter Landesman, the film goes from bullet point to bullet point, without much information about how we got there; everything feels abrupt. Nonetheless, Smith's commitment to the role is obvious. His mannerisms and accent are spot on. Smith garnered a well-deserved Golden Globe nomination and if Landesman had put as much careful work into the script as Smith did his performance, Concussion could have been a great film despite everything going against it.
Presented in the 2.39:1 aspect ratio, Sony has given Concussion a great transfer, with consistent black levels throughout the film and superior image detail in both wide and tight shots. Colors appear realistic with no issues of noise or saturation. The image is pristine from start to finish.
The DTS-HD MA 5.1 lossless track is no less impressive. Football hits from current and past games, as well as James Newton Howard's impressive score gives the soundtrack a good amount of material to work with and exhibits a better than expected range.
English, English SDH, French, and Spanish subtitles are included.
The following extras are available:
- Audio Commentary: Director Peter Landesman discusses the script, casting, the characters and their motivations, score, shooting locations, and much more. This is a terrific listen for fans of the film.
- Deleted Scenes (HD) Bennet at Law Firm (1:40), Webster Works Out (1:39), Bailes Operates (0:55), Bennet Discovers the Disease (1:29), Prema Asks Bennet (1:31), Bennet and Prema Confronted (0:56), Prema Finds Webster's Brain (0:57), Amobi (3:09), and Bennet Stays in Lodi (1:27).
- Inside the True Story (HD, 11:10) Will Smith discusses what attracted him to the role and the real Dr. Bennet Omalu and others depicted in the movie discuss the true story.
- Crafting Concussion (HD, 12:55) A quick look at the film's production, including structure, direction, cast and performances, shooting in Pittsburgh, and more.
- UV Digital Copy Code.

Set in Hong Kong at the turn of the century, about two rival gangs of smugglers, and the military operation which sets out to capture them.
1985 | Ganador: Best Action Choreography
1985 | Nominado: Best Actor
Chan's pirate adventure forgoes an interesting political subtext in favor of a typically engaging blend of intricately choreographed action & slapstick. Many cite the Harold Lloyd clock tower fall as a highlight, but really it's a film chock-full of jaw-dropping sequences; the brawl at the nightclub, the bicycle chase through the streets, etc. A perfect balance between Hong Kong action & classic Hollywood influences.
A lot of wild, crazy and dangerous stunts with perfect timing (like the brilliant bicycle sequence) keep the film going. But the dialogues are - maybe dependent on the English synchronization - sometimes too silly and stupid ... even for a comedy.
I really enjoyed the bicycle chase/fight. Glad I stuck it out past the beginning . . . almost didn't make it over that hurdle . . .
Classic Jackie Chan action with all the humor and slapstick you would expect from it. Oh, and ten points for you if you can figure out who's doing the voice of San-Po before the credits roll.. lol!
I can never get enough Hong Kong action, especially if Yuen Biao is in the cast! This is not among my all-time favorites, but still a super fun action classic.
One of the many great works of Chan's career, this simple tale of pirates, police, & coast guard corruption is fun & exciting. From the bicycle chase, bar fight, & clock tower sequence, Chan continues to pay homage to silent comedy masters like Keaton & Lloyd. The U.S. version killed it for me, cutting out scenes & inserting horrible dubbing. Hopefully seeing the original cut will improve my thoughts on this classic.
Why is it that Jackie Chan stopped directing his own films? He's a great filmmaker himself! The action, the stories and the comedy. He's got great skills as a storyteller.
You don't watch this movie for it's amazing acting or compelling story and characters. You watch this movie for Jackie Chan and his jaw dropping stunt work. If you are a fan of his work this is a must see! As a film fan I loved the reference to Harold Loyd's Safety Last! (1923). On a side note I don't think I've ever heard worse dubbing in my life! This is a fun action film that is unfortunately a tad forgettable.

Have Mercy On Me
The gospels tell us stories of miraculous healing and deliverance, where people like blind Bartimaeus and the Syrophoenician woman encountered Jesus. But what was it about these people's cries for help that moved the Son of God to action?
In this message, Nate Danser challenges all of us to seek God for what we need by digging deeper into the meaning of the powerful prayer, "Have mercy on me."

Working from Wherever, Whenever!
Sometimes POSH PR® is in Miami, sometimes we are in Palm Beach, and sometimes we are in New York City. And other times, our clients are all over the world! When your business grows and one of your top priorities is your employees and creating a 21st century business, the ability to work from wherever and whenever, to me, is so important. When I am on the go, being able to pop up in a doctor's waiting room, on an airplane and even dictating emails to your dolls when you are driving — this helps you save valuable time!
My husband, Costa, has been here there and everywhere over the past month or so, traveling for work. For him, this summer required a lot more traveling than usual. It has been an adjustment! During a four hour delay at the airport the other day, he called me and asked, "How am I supposed to get work done when I am out of the office all of the time?!" He was asking a pro. When you are an entrepreneur and small business-owner, the world has to become your office.
Running your own business does come with flexibility, Dolls. Flexibility, however, can be a double-edged sword. Yes, you do get to work on your own time. But no, that does not mean there is less work to be done! As a matter of fact, you now have the additional responsibility of being your own timeline, your own enforcer. Working from anywhere at anytime is a discipline, but like most disciplines, it offers a freeing reward! So, how do I get things done?!
1. I make things a little easier by having a portable, lightweight 12" MacBook (rose gold, of course!) that slips perfectly into my YSL bag. Yes, this was a requirement before purchasing my new bag!
2. Apple's wireless headphones are a necessity, especially when talking with a client on the phone. Having my hands free to take valuable notes for reference makes all the difference (pro tip: get as many thoughts out of your head and written/typed out!)
3. And I always, always have a hotspot wherever I am (even in the car!)
4. This might sound silly to you, but something I ALWAYS carry with me? A phone charger and a computer charger! You never know when you will be out and about and creativity strikes!
What are some of your work-from-wherever must-haves?! Let us know in the comments, Dolls!

Giving of monetary tithes and offerings at Expression Church is about obedience to God. It is the natural, thankful response of giving back to God a portion of what God provides for us. We are blessed to give to meet the needs of people locally, nationally and abroad.
In Malachi 3:10, God says, "Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house. Test me in this," says the LORD Almighty, "and see if I will not throw open the floodgates of heaven and pour out so much blessing that you will not have room enough for it."
According to the Old Testament, a tithe is ten percent given back to God before any other obligations are considered. An offering is an additional amount above the tithe, usually given as evidence of further gratitude for blessings received. As a New Testament Church, we are called to give joyously, and generously.
We are currently in the process of switching over our giving platform from Giving Fire to our Church Community Builder or CCB page.

Georgia College museum receives $150K grant
A nearly $150,000 grant awarded to Georgia College & State University's Natural History Museum aims to help bring science to life in classrooms in five midstate counties.
The grant, provided by the Institute of Museum and Library Services, will be used for a two-year project that involves professors at the college teaching local elementary and middle-school teachers about current scientific knowledge.
After teachers from Baldwin, Jones, Hancock, Putnam and Wilkinson counties are trained, they will have an opportunity to take their students on a field trip, covered by the grant, to visit the college's Natural History Museum and Planetarium, according to a Georgia College news release.
Two Georgia College professors have been scrambling to turn their plans for the $149,296 grant into action.
Bob Chandler, a biology professor, will help instruct the local teachers.
"For at least 15, if not 20, years we've been asked to go out to different schools and give a science talk," he said.
"It's going to be even neater for you to bring kids in."
Teachers will be able to apply online for the "From Fossils to Space" project, and the program will start this year, Chandler said.
The application will be online Friday and will be due Sept. 4, said Rosalie Richards, a professor of chemistry and director of the science education center at Georgia College.
Teachers who participate in the program will receive credit toward their professional learning units for attending five sessions on school days between September and January.
College professors will offer the teachers new ways to meet the state's performance standards in paleontology, earth science and astronomy, according to the news release.
This year, Richards and Chandler, who are leading the program, hope three teachers from each of the nearby counties will be part of the program.
After meeting with four of the five school systems Wednesday morning, Richards said that by Wednesday afternoon she already had started receiving calls from interested teachers.
"I don't think we have a problem with recruitment," she said.
Of 433 applicants for the grant, the Natural History Museum was one of 167 funded projects. Georgia College is matching the grant.
The overall cost of the two-year program is more than $300,000, Richards said.
"If this works well and we're able to apply for another round after these two years, we're hoping we can expand it to include more teachers," she said.

Jim O'Brien
The high point in the career of the television and film director, Jim O'Brien, was the 14-part Granada series The Jewel in the Crown (1984), set in the final days of the British Raj in India. His next major work, this time for the BBC, was more controversial – The Monocled Mutineer (1986), the story of an impostor, Percy Toplis, who claimed to have taken part in a mutiny of soldiers at a British training camp in France in the First World War.
The series, which showed the British establishment in a bad light, was transmitted at a time when Margaret Thatcher's government was looking for left-wing bias in the BBC's output. Conservative critics viewed the series as a complete fabrication.
O'Brien, the son of a building labourer, was brought up in a tenement and left school without any qualifications. After a series of dead-end jobs, he began training as an actor at the Guildhall School and then joined the Nottingham Playhouse, where he won a nomination for the most promising newcomer to the stage. He later trained as a director, first for the theatre and then for television.
In 1980, the BBC engaged him to direct Shadows on our Skin, which recounted the problems of a young boy living in a Catholic part of Londonderry. Two years later, again for the BBC, he directed Jake's End, which centred on the sense of community among small-time crooks.
The Jewel in the Crown, based on the Raj Quartet novels by Paul Scott, was an enormous undertaking for O'Brien and his co-director, Christopher Morahan. The cast, together with a large team of production staff, were taken to India for six months' filming, followed by a year's work back in Britain. The series won a swathe of awards and made a star of Art Malik, who played a young man tortured by police for a rape he did not commit.
After The Monocled Mutineer, a four-part serial adapted by Alan Bleasdale from a novel by William Allison and John Fairley, O'Brien directed The Dressmaker, a feature film based on a Beryl Bainbridge novel, set in wartime Liverpool and starring Joan Plowright, Billie Whitelaw, Pete Postlethwaite and Jane Horrocks.
From the late 1980s, he alternated his directing work with teaching at the National Film and Television School.
Jim O'Brien, who was born on February 15, 1947, died on February 13 at the age of 64.

Looking for moderators!Journal Entry: Tue Feb 23, 2016, 3:06 PM
Hi Watercolorists!
Since some of us cannot be very active anymore, we are looking for new person who would be willing to join our team.
How does our work look like?
Weekly, we accept about 20 members and 100 deviations. It's not that often we decline works - only about 10% of all submissions are against the rules, and usually we allow to resubmit after the requirements are met.
Once a month we throw the Best Of feature, showing 10 works that captivated us in past month. Also somewhere halfway-through the month we put a new discussion poll to share thoughts with our members.
We are open for new ideas.
What do we expect of our future colleagues?
1. Communicative English skills (obviously),
2. 10-20 minutes a day to resolve submissions and assign them to proper folders, accept and welcome new members,
3. Basic knowledge about watercolor will be much appreciated. No super skills in watercolor painting are required - just ability to tell a watercolor from other media.
If you think you could help us, please note us or comment under this journal. We are looking forward to hearing from you!
Thank you!
Yours truly,
I'd love to join your team and help you!
It will be a big pleasure to help you
I would also like to join
I'd be happy to help. I'm on DA about three times a day. Watercolor is my favorite medium, while I'm no expert, I use it the most and am pretty sure I could spot what is or is not. I've also helped moderate groups before. Good luck in your search!
Hey! I'd love to try this and help! Your group is amazing and has helped and inspired me a lot, so if I can help in return, I'd love to
Sounds cool! I'd definitely be into it, as I love this group
