On Weddings
On Weddings
ON WEDDINGS The following essay is excerpted from Chapter 11 of The End of a Road (The Dial Press, New York, 1971) by John M. Allegro. Most people in this supposedly \Christian\ country [England] have only a threefold acquaintance with the Church: at baptism, marriage, and death. The ceremonies of the christening, wedding, and the funeral may be devoid of any deeply religious significance for our pagan community, but they are nevertheless part of the traditional pattern of folk behavior and have roots deep in the social consciousness. The celebration of a birth and reception of the infant into the community, the giving of a name by which the baby becomes a recognizable member of a society, is marked by tribal ceremonies the world over. Similarly, plighting one's troth to the woman of one's choice before the community and taking a joint farewell of a respected elder at death are important features of any communal life. Certainly the shutting of churches is not likely to diminish these occasions in their importance, although their forms and symbolism may be expected to change. Indeed, it would do no great harm if some aspects of the ceremonies were reexamined for their real meaning and validity, and a great deal of the oversentimentality and mock piety associated with them were to disappear. At its christening a child is received into the community of Christians, The parents pledge to bring their child up in a specifically religious fashion, teaching it Christian doctrine and ensuring its continuance in the Faith. How many of the parents proudly displaying their offspring before their friends at the altar have the slightest intention of fulfilling their vows made on that occasion, or indeed have even bothered to take note of what they are promising, must be very few to judge from their later attendances at worship. In the popular mind the christening ceremony is a means of giving the child a name, receiving on its behalf a number of gifts, most of them quite useless, and basking in the shared joy of their relations and friends. It is, quite properly, a supremely happy and proud occasion, and for most the impropriety of making false declarations of intent before the deity never obtrudes to mar the festive occasion. If most parsons are prepared to join in the fun, fully aware of the insincerity of the chief participants' religious affirmations but hoping that something of their import might stick and be later recalled, other clerics have rebelled against what they have not unfairly regarded as a farce and a mockery of god and his Church. Every so often the newspapers carry stories of enraged pagan parents being refused this office of the Church for their offspring on the grounds that they clearly had no intention of carrying out their vows. Unfortunately, the Church of England is in a difficult position in this respect, being the established church of the country. Many laymen appear to think of the Church as their property, a kind of nationalized god-service. If Anglican clergy are too forcible in pointing out the obvious fallacy of this belief, they run the danger of raising the perennial question of disestablishment and the public airing of the ever-growing disquiet within the Church about the incongruity of its position in a largely pagan society, when even its prayerbook has to be approved by the House of Commons. Of course, the sincere clerics who disapprove of their churches being used for ceremonial purposes only, by people who have no regard for the religion the buildings are supposed to represent, are perfectly right. They should turn applicants for the Church's offices away from the doors if they are not willing to obey the rules. The Church is not a nationalized industry, put there and maintained by the State for its convenience. In making this position plain once and for all, the Anglicans should then go on and face, fairly and squarely without any more hedging, this question of disestablishment. If the Church is going to remain in business at all, it can only be as a purveyor of religion, not as a second-rate \Oxfam,\ soup kitchen, or even a State \Palace of Culture\ on the Soviet pattern. It may hurt the pride of the corps of empurpled bishops to be removed from their bench in the House of Lords, or from their ability to decree whom members of the Royal Family may and may not marry, but at least the Church of England could call its soul its own and decide thereafter whom it allows through its doors and admits to its sacred offices. Until then, its priests must be prepared to endure the tragi-comedy of pagan \christenings,\ weddings, and funerals in the name of its god. Much the same objections as can be raised on pagan \christenings\ relate to pagan weddings in church. In these cases, however, the clouding of motives by over-sentimentalism, and the obscuring of real purpose by the orange blossom and floating veils of white tulle, is a very much more serious matter and a cause for concern. The divorce rate in this country has never been so high, and the toll these failures must take on the lives of the children of such ill-starred marriages is incalculable. How many broken pledges of lifetime fidelity and love were made at the altar of a god to whom neither party owed any allegiance? The only scriptures or doctrinal tracts many such couples are likely to have read would have been a sixpenny pamphlet of wedding etiquette and a somewhat more expensive tome on how to find the most suitable position for enjoyable copulation. Many an earnest parson, approached by strangers wanting to marry in his church, will try to ensure that before the great day he has had a chance to talk to them about their religious responsibilities. But since in most cases their common ground of discussion will be negligible, there is little chance of the priest's being able to indoctrinate them into the nature and purpose of the Church, let alone convert them to the faith, in a couple of thirty-minute sessions. The girl's mind is more likely to be filled with thoughts of her dress, bridesmaids, trousseau, and resisting Mother's choice of Uncle Herbert as speech-maker on behalf of the family; the man's on how many pub-crawls are left to him in his sadly waning period of liberty. The result is that when the happy couple sign the register in blissful relief that the best man had not lost the ring, and neither had fluffed their responses, they are very little wiser about the nature of the religious ceremony they have just undergone, nor the extraordinary promises they have made to one another. Furthermore, by their agreeing to be married under the auspices of the Church, they have assented to the proposition that \those whom God has joined together let no man put asunder\; in other words, divorce under any man-made law is out of the question. The Catholic Church is still adamant on this point; the Anglicans prevaricate; but the wording of the marriage service to which the young pagans have submitted is clear. Now this is not going to stop our young bright-eyed newlyweds rushing off to lawyers a couple of years later demanding a divorce. They may well have good reasons for doing so, not least of them being the fact that they should not have married in the first place. They had nothing in common but a mania for some pop group, an ability to perform the same gyrations and body-squirming on a dance floor, and nowadays more often than not, a capability of achieving simultaneous orgasms in bed. The real tragedy of these situations is, of course, the child they managed to bring into the world in that time. From the morning the growing fetus gave the mother nausea, the baby became a nuisance and heralded the eventual dissolution of the marriage. Would the marriage have ever taken place, we may wonder, if the girl had thought beyond the glamour of a \white wedding,\ of which a solemnization in the parish church is such a necessary part in the popular imagination? For years she has feasted her mind and imagination on the pictures presented to her in the television advertisements. The radiant bride, dressed of course by Hartnell, appears before the church door and laughingly (teeth by Colgate) tosses her bouquet to envious girifriends. In the background stands a handsome, smiling, fully robed vicar, and beside her the immaculately dressed (Moss Bros.) groom and father and stunningly coutured mother (slimmed for the occasion by Spirella). A Rolls Royce purrs to the old lichgate, and whisks the happy couple off to the Riviera for their fabulous honeymoon (by Cook's). The picture fades to a dream kitchen in Sevenoaks, washed clean by invisible hands wielding waterless mops soaked in a wonder detergent. An oh-so-sweet little girl trips in to inquire of her perfectly manicured mother how she has kept her oh-so-smooth hands free from signs of manual toil . . . and so on. Would not this dream have been shattered into some semblance of reality had the hopeful pair been refused one ingredient of the white wedding by a vicar who refused to marry a couple who had no serious or permanent church affiliations? Or if he had expressed himself willing to perform the ceremony only after an adequate course of religious and doctrinal instruction, at least as thorough as that imposed on young people at confirmation? Or if it had been sternly laid down that on no account were such pagan trappings as orange blossoms, silver horseshoes, and confetti to be brought into the church? Suppose, then, having been deterred from the television dream to some extent by an uncooperative vicar, the pair were required by law to appear before a marriage counsellor whose task it was to instruct them both in the legal aspects of the marriage contract, and at the same time to probe kindly but firmly into their real intentions towards one another and any children of the union. Suppose, perhaps for the first time, the young man were thus suddenly made aware that marriage carried considerable financial responsibilities, and that having plighted his troth to the girl beside him he would be liable for all time to support her and their children whether he had tired of the union or not. Would he not take another calculating look at the girl and be inclined to think beyond the delights of the honeymoon and the car their joint income would buy and run, to the burden of wife and children his own wage would one day have to bear? How much more ethical, not to say economical in view of ever-rising bill of supplementary benefits paid to deserted wives and unwanted offspring, it would be for the State to insist on such prior consultation and instruction before marriage rather than to allow young couples to be dazzled by specious advertising into dashing off to church at the first stir of the sex hormones. And how much more effective such an interview might be if the bride-to-be were not blinded by white tulle and deafened to the voice of reason by the pealing of church bells. One might wonder at the Church allowing its sacred offices to be used for decorative purposes by people with no religious affiliations or real interest, but we cannot blame her ministers for the state's failure to make sure that her young people understand the legal implications of the grave step they contemplate. These are not the Church's concern. Her first duty is to the religious aspects of the ceremony which is for the Church a sacred office and sacrament, not a legal undertaking. There is much to be said for the continental system of observing the religious rites only after the civic formalities have been carried out at the town hall. At least the parties are made aware that they are entering primarily into a civil contract. More and more couples are acknowledging the impropriety of undergoing religious rites in which they have no belief or real interest, and marrying at registry offices. Mothers brought up in the old tradition may secretly wonder if their daughters are not thereafter living in sin, but fathers at least appreciate not having to pay the parson, choir boys, bell-ringers, and other beneficiaries of the \white-wedding syndrome.\ With the decline of the Church's influence and the decrease in places of worship available, this trend to a civic function will certainly gather momentum. We may hope that the resultant unfashionableness of white church weddings will take away some of the false glamour of the marriage ceremony and its superficial attractiveness to the television-reared girl. Nevertheless, the legal requirement of signing a register should not be the only recognition of this important event in the lives of two young people. Marriage should be a supremely happy occasion, and one to be shared by the community to which the couple belong, as well as by relatives and intimate acquaintances. The event has much in common in this respect with the \naming ceremony\ for young babies, since the community has in both cases a responsibility to declare towards its members and their welfare. As our societies become ever more closely integrated, the assumption by the group of responsibilities for its weaker members becomes increasingly necessary. As a baby may be thrown upon the mercies of the community through the default of its parents, or its incapability of surviving the pressures of normal life through some deformity or mental defect, so a marriage which breaks down almost inevitably makes claims upon the community's welfare facilities. It would be fitting therefore that a wedding celebration should include some gathering of well-wishers including representatives of the local legislature, in a semi-formal ceremony of congratulation. The atmosphere, less rigid and legalistic than the register office but more serious than the wedding breakfast convivialities to follow, would aim again at conveying to all concerned the involvement of the whole community in the marriage union of two of its members. To an ever-increasing degree, the choice of partner in marriage affects the rest of society. Neglected wives and children and deformed babies need the help of the others, so it would seem only right that the marriage should be seen by the community to be setting off on the right lines. As well as ensuring that both parties are aware of their legal and moral responsibilities, there is a case for the State requiring that they undergo medical examinations before being granted their marriage license. Whilst it might not be possible or desirable in a free society to forbid persons with serious physical or mental disabilities from marrying, at least they could be made aware of any special difficulties that might arise in conception or childbirth which would prepare them for necessary hospitalization or disappointment. We may hope that the results of present researches into genetic control will one day ensure that women never bear mongol or similarly malformed offspring, but to exercise such control it will be necessary to make the medical tests here suggested as a prerequisite to marriage. Again, to insist on medical examinations of intending spouses would emphasize further the serious nature of the step they intend taking. One can see that it might in some cases involve some desperate soul-searching if a defect were brought to light in one of the partners of which the other was ignorant, or indeed which was unsuspected by the victim. Should a man, for example, carry on with his plans to marry a girl who would probably never bear a live or normal child? Should a woman commit herself to someone for life who has suffered from venereal disease and whose blood can never be considered absolutely clear of the virus? If it be argued that to involve a young couple in such grave considerations when they are enjoying the emotional flights of their romance is wanton cruelty, one must answer that these facts are better faced before the union than after, unless we are going to continue filling our divorce courts with psychologically bruised people and their hapless offspring. The Church's main interest in the selection of partners in marriage has been to ensure that as far as possible \mixed\ marriages, that is between [Roman] Catholics and non-[Roman] Catholics, should be avoided. If a mixed marriage is enacted, the [Roman Catholic] church insists that progeny should be educated in obedience to the [Roman] Catholic faith whatever the wishes of the other spouse. Thus, from the very moment of marriage, the Church manages to divide husband from wife in a way that is bound later on to be aggravated by squabbles over the children's upbringing, to say nothing of the conflicting views they will probably hold about birth control. Again, to the outsider it seems extraordinary that rational human beings should allow their lives to be dictated in this way by a celibate clergy. We can but look forward to a lessening of this alienating influence in man's affairs, and to a time when men and women will choose each other for life mates solely on the grounds of their mutual love and willingness to share a lifetime's joys and responsibilities. The time has come, then, for us to take stock of our real sentiments and hopes at the natural climaxes of life, birth, marriage, and death. These should be times of joy and compassion when families and friends join in acknowledging important events in the lives of their companions. We are in danger of losing genuine sentiment and deep emotion in a tide of cynicism created by the false values purveyed by advertising men and their media. Nothing is sacred from their obnoxious smear of commercialism. Every day the only true values left in this world, like human love, maternal pride, and filial affection, are raped and despoiled in the cause of selling trash to a moronic public. We have to resist this debasement of our dearest possessions, and the first necessity is to clear our minds of what is valuable and what is not. If to most of us the trappings and regalia of outworn creeds and rituals mean nothing, then let us banish them from those moments of real significance in our lives. Let our babies be presented to the community, our young people to each other in marriage, and the achievements of the dead to those who survive them in solemn thanksgiving, without marring the occasions with the insincerity of meaningless religious rituals.

4:56 a.m. February 1, 2013 | Good Morning! hope you are traveling safe. David's in Huntsville AL for at least a year up to 'maybe two or five, Mom: as long as i'm having fun!' which he is having with his new Hyundai Accent six speed manual. Aunt Hilda said that it looks nice. my guess is that he will fly back to visit here, so it might be awhile before i get to see it. it's been single digits/10*s/20*s with 'feelslike' in the minus temps for the last two weeks here. we might get to 40*s in the next seven days. it is wintertime in western South Dakota: which is as close as i am getting to 'South'. if i had marketable skills, 'North' looks better for the money: but that is not where our most wonderful youngest lives, so here i am. i made it to 1499 consecutive days! when the numbers roll over it looks so lonely until it gets closer to the next 99 - in my opinion. safe travels!

Watchinherskip's 30th Anniversary Cruise
Well hello "old" friends and hello to you new ones too.
It has been exactly 1 month since our anniversary cruise and I am coming to terms with separation anxiety! We took a seven day cruise on the largest cruise liner in the world...the Allure of the Seas. We have sailed with RCC several times but this boat takes the cake. It was just beautiful! I guess I will have to upload some pictures in the near future.
For now I thought it would be cool to post the video of DW and I on our excursion in St. Maarten. This is our second time doing a similar excursion. On our 20th anniversary, we took the America's Cup Challenge racing NZL 10 and NZL 12 (America's cup trial boats) in Nassau. This time we competed in the 12 meter challenge. IT ROCKED. As with the last time, two competing sailing teams are picked by "team captains". It is sort of like picking teams for kickball or something. Teams were picked then a coin flip determined which boat we would race; KC II Canada 2 or (Ta Da) Dennis Connor's Stars and Strips US 55 that won back the cup from the Aussies. So which boat did the Skips get? That is right....Canada 2
There was an actual Canadian who wanted to swap with someone so she could go on her country's boat. Oh and most of the Stars and Stripes team were Brits..go figure
Long story short...watch the video...camera work by my dear wife...God bless her (Gets a little art nouveau!). Her main job was to be bar wench...have to fight scurvy and dehydration don't you know?
So hope this isn't a violation of terms...or if it is Mods feel free to do your thing.

Thanks for sharing Dan, it seems like a good time was had by all.
So how did your cruise compare with DCL?

Re: Watchinherskip's 30th Anniversary Cruise
Oh, don't know, never cruised on DCL.. (ouch that hurts me). I can only compare it to other RCCL and Carnival. The ship is just fantastic. 225 K tons, over 1200 ft long, eight neighborhoods. Really nice. Guess the main difference with sailing these days is the add on retaurants. Guess that is where the lines make their real money, that and the drinks. We ate in the complementary ones only. The food was pretty good, but I think (as well as my wife) that they used to do a better job with the food quality and variety. One man's opinion. Guess DCL has the rotating dining plan right? A different experience each night.
The Allure is a fantastic vessel. I thought I would hate the "fun days" at sea but I actually DID. The Solarium had like 5 spas/whirlpools tons of seating and a complimentary eatery that served health concious foods for breakfast and lunch (became a pay as you go Brazilian Steak house at night).
I would say the accomdations (room and common areas) were better than any vessel we have sailed.
Re: Watchinherskip's 30th Anniversary Cruise
Looks like a fun time!
That water was so beautiful.

Re: Watchinherskip's 30th Anniversary Cruise
Ooopps, I thought that you had been on a DCL cruise before.
Yep, they do rotational dining on the DCL ships which is great, and ALL meals are complimentary, apart from you having to pay a small subsidy to dine at Palo`s if that takes your fancy..it`s well worth it though.
Now you MUST do a DCL cruise so that you can compare.
Re: Watchinherskip's 30th Anniversary Cruise
No, never been but have seen it in the shipyard right here in Portsmouth over the years. Always wanted to try that line. Kind of toying with the idea now. I would love to be able to make a comparison!!
Re: Watchinherskip's 30th Anniversary Cruise
When uploading some pics to another post, I came across a couple of pics from the cruise, thought it wouldn't hurt to get a feel for the Allure of the Seas.
The first one is from the 12 meter challenge, the second is from the Rising Tide Bar...think of the whole bar being a huge elevator. You get on the bar at one floor and it goes up through the ship. Pretty cool!

When something works as deeply as moor mud, numerous conditions are treated at the core. There are no chemicals or additives in Torf Krasno's Moor Mud. Moor Mud is also the common name for our Balneo Peat.
Peat baths, also known as moor mud baths, are used daily by European medical doctors to restore people's health. This moor mud spa therapy works from the inside while most therapies only alleviate surface symptoms. Tight sore muscles, joint stiffness and eczema are not surface problems. In order to effectively treat these conditions, the therapy must be penetrating, consistent and full body. A moor mud bath does this. The benefits from one moor mud bath last for days and may resolve the condition. An increase in flexibility is typically seen after the first treatment.
The natural acids and nutrients in peat are the driving force behind its healing abilities. As one aspect of peat opens the skin pores allowing nutrients in and acids out, another aspect actively draws out lactic acid and metabolic wastes from tissues. After just one treatment, your muscle aches, joint stiffness and skin health may be markedly improved. No drugs. No ointments. A natural, effective therapy for about $8.00 each treatment. How many treatments this effective are that inexpensive?
Moor Mud Bath and Body Wrap:
Click the file below for instructions on how to use Moor Mud:
Moor mud is a therapy quality peat ** - an organic substance, product of natural decomposition of multitudes of plants under special conditions.
Unlike other mud used in the spa industry, Torf Moor Mud contains virtually no clay (less then 3%) and consists of organic residue of herbs, flowers and grasses. Over period of thousands of years this residue was transformed into a fine paste that easily dissolves in the water, has unusual concentration of bio-minerals, trace elements, vitamins, amino acids, plant hormones and fatty acids in a molecular form that is easy for the human skin to absorb. Think of it as a plant extract not from just one plant, but hundreds that reflects environment of Earth 10.000 years ago, without present day pollution. Its uncanny ability to heal, nourish and detoxify has been observed by people for millennia and used scientifically in European Spas for well over a century. It is used not only to beautify, but also to cure multitude of ailments from mobility problems, arthritis, and hormonal imbalance to post surgery recovery and muscle recovery in sport medicine. Its actions are thermo-physical, biochemical, anti-aging, anti-inflammatory, and natural antibiotics*. Because peat has chelatic properties (it binds heavy metal isotopes) it is a very strong natural detoxifier*.
Term BALNEO-Peat refers to therapy grade of our Moor Mud which was tested to exacting standards by the Czech Ministry of Health and was certified for the use for treatment in the spa therapy (balneo-therapy). Thanks to its unique packaging, Torf Moor Mud is supplied in an non-altered natural state, enriched with highly beneficial mineral spring waters and salts of the Karlovy Vary Spa region. Torf Moor Mud has never been processed chemically or thermally to preserve all of it's benefits as recommended by European therapy practice.
** Moor mud, moor peat, therapy peat, BALNEO-peat are different names for high quality, matured peat that is suitable for balneotherapy.
Brand: Torf Spa
Delivery type: Topical
Made In: Czech Republic

I love my Moor Mud. My doctor recommended these mud baths to me to help alleviate some symptoms related to inflammation and muscle tension. Thou skeptical at first, these baths have become a staple in my self-care routine. For me the pain reduction benefit of these baths is priceless.

Testimonies: Seizures |
"I am a worker in the Healing Room ministry. On Sunday a man at church slumped over. The nurse was having a hard time finding a pulse. He was very pale and not responding. I sensed I should lay hands on him and pray, I asked the other men there to agree with me. Immediately, the man came to, stood up and when the paramedics arrived they pronounced him just fine. I know God touched him and I give Him all the praise, thanksgiving and glory in Jesus name." - Hugh B. on February 25th, 2011 | |
"Nathan (9 years old) developed an involuntary movement in his right arm that looked like a partial focal seizure. After evaluation by a couple of doctors, and given his past history of a tumor on his spine, it was felt that he may have another tumor on his cerebral cortex (brain). On Saturday, March 28th he was having 14 arm movements per minute. His dad brought Nate to the Healing Rooms. During the prayer Nate felt something in his head, and since then the involuntary movements in his right arm have stopped. He had a follow-up MRI of his brian and spine nine days after his healing experience; it was completely normal. Praise god for His Power!" - Nathan B. on April 11th, 2009 | |
" ReQuest For Prayer:Laura and Charlton, My father in law has been hospitalized today with a possible stroke. Laura and Charlton Thank you for your prayers, my father in law has been in the hospital for two days now and the doctors have not been able to find anything wrong, additionally he feels great, they are attributing his stroke like symptoms to possible dehydration. Praise God! He is a believer. He had six bypasses last year. God Bless you Glory to God!" - Troy S. on July 31st, 2009 | |
"Another powerful testimony during the Healing Rooms training came from PG who cleans the Healing Rooms and the church where we conduct the training. Her sister suffers from seizures and was warned not to get pregnant again because on two previous occasions the medicine she is required to take caused deformities. The babies did not survive through pregnancy. She was told that pregnancy may even kill her but her heart was set on having a baby. She became pregnant again. The doctors did a sonogram and the entire side of the baby was deformed and disfigured. They told her sister that if the baby was born "it would be a monster." When her sister was in the hospital preparing to give birth PG went and stood by her. Her sister had a seizure while she was there but PG stretched out her hands over her sister and saw and felt the wings of angel wrap around over her own. She saw angels in all four corners of the room as she prayed. The sister went into the delivery room and a perfect baby was born. A little later the doctor that had warned that the baby would "be a monster" saw the baby wrapped in a blanket and at first refused to even look into the blanket. When the blanket was pulled back the Doctor declared this precious little child "a miracle baby." HR " - Patricia G. on January 10th, 2008 | |
"I just want to praise God because He has cured me from my seizures. I have not had a seizure since I first went to the Healing Rooms on December 8th. I'm free and I am off my medication. The Lord has also repairs my insides from a partial hysterectomy and I got results from the doctor that my insides are perfect. I'm now looking forward to having a baby! Our God is truly an awesom God! The Lord is truly a healer!" - Linda T. on February 23rd, 2002 | |

Teacher turned playwright creates 'The Beast'
CLIFTON PARK — "When I started to write for the stage, I went to a class over in Troy, at Russell Sage College, a weekend thing," recalls Rexford resident Marty Egan. "The guy giving the class said, 'if you really want to write for the stage, you have to go on the stage'."
Good advice, it turned out. Egan, with a 34-year teaching career at Schenectady City schools under his belt, came to the theater relatively late in life — "Although, when you're a middle school teacher, you've got to be a good storyteller," he said, chuckling. "As a colleague of mine once said, when you teach middle school, you give four or five performances a day."
But following his immersion in local community theater, he has become fond of the experience.
"I love the whole community aspect of it," he said. "You're part of a group, rather than all alone. Writing can be a lonely experience. But this is so much more social."
Writing is what Egan does, several hours a day, a steady discipline since he decided to retire from teaching. "Like a lot of people, I've written stuff all my life, and mostly gotten rejection slips," he said. "Stories, sketches, novels." But he found his métier writing plays, and several of his works have been produced by local community theaters — Albany's Confetti Stage, Albany Civic Theater, but mostly by the Not So Common Players of Clifton Park.
His latest collaboration with that troupe opens this weekend for three performances at the Clifton Park-Halfmoon Public Library — a World War II drama, "The Beast."
The scene is Vichy, France, in 1943, where Germany is rounding up "undesirables," and a few hardy souls joining the Resistance to harass the occupiers. With the Germans bracing for an expected invasion in the south of France, a disarmingly pleasant German intelligence officer, Major Kessel (played by Stephen Hennel), is quartered with the family of a local banker, Gerard Mercier (Adam Holbritter), a man with a get-along, go-along stance toward the Nazis.
"His attitude is don't make waves, don't attract attention, and they'll go away. They always go away," Egan said. But soon, Mercier finds himself being drawn into collusion with his tenant and against his family and friends.
The play is directed by Monica Cangero, who, it turns out, is a fellow teacher and an acting acquaintance of the playwright. "I met her in a production of 'Little Mary Sunshine' here (at NSCP)," Egan recalled. "When I heard she wanted to take this on, I was delighted. Monica is a very talented person, and she's very kind."
The subject matter of "The Beast" has some humor, but it tends toward the dark, he said. "I'd like to think of it as universal — a man who's basically good comes into contact with evil, and has to decide if he'll get involved. It's about how easy it can be to do the wrong thing." Continued...

CHI Ceramic Flat Iron (Original 1" CHI)
AmyUSABurned To A Crisp!The Chi burned my hair. Because it only has one temperature you cannot adjust for your own hair. I have thick, wavy brown hair, I never thought it would BURN my hair! The ends of my hair are frizzy and extremely weak. After using the CHI my hair has an awful burnt smell. Extremely disappointed.posted Jul 16, 2010Link to this post
Maura D.CaliforniaHairDark BrownColor Treated HairThick or Coarse HairDefinitely Worth The Money! Take Care Of It And It Will Take Care Of You.My sister is a hair stylist and recommended I get a CHI. I've had it for almost 3 years now and it is just as wonderful today as it was the day I bought it. I absolutely love it! The only time my hair hasn't come out perfectly silky and flat is if I've gone too long without a haircut. That's my own fault, not the fault of the flat iron. I think a lot of people assume that if suddenly their hair isn't coming out as straight and silky as it used to that it's because the flat iron isn't working, when really the problem is that their hair needs a trim. For those of you who aren't happy with your flat iron (CHI or any other high quality brand), before you give up on it and start searching for a new one you might want to keep a few things in mind. First off, clean it every now and then. Make sure you store it properly so as not to damage the cord (or any other part of it for that matter). Make sure you're putting a high quality thermal protector in your hair before applying the heat of the iron, use a good conditioner and use it correctly.... and....get your hair trimmed regularly. Remember: Even the best styling tools in the world won't work properly if your hair isn't healthy!posted Jul 15, 2010Link to this post
Elisa P.LADont Believe In Review ... Becuz I Was Wrong To Do Soi got this chi becuz everyone said that it is the best flat iron ever but really for me it was not. this is the first expensive flat iron i have got ive read this reviews and thats why i got it but i know now to not get this maybe it was not for me but it didnt close all the way and i had press hard for it to flat iron my hair and my hair is not that curly. dont get is i wouldnt anymoreposted Jul 8, 2010Link to this post
LizzHairMedium BrownFine or Thin HairHappy And DisapointedThe Chi GF 1000 hot iron we have for 2 years worked well until the cord shorted out and we could not find a replacement cord..posted Jun 30, 2010Link to this post
Serina#1 And Worth The Money!This flat iron is the best for straightening your hair just the way you want it. I've never used a flat iron that works as good as this one. It heats up in seconds, doesn't pull your hair or do damage to your hair. I have thin hair, so I was worried about the high heat, but the CHI worked excellent! I read other reviews about people saying it fried their hair. I don't know how they were using it, but I could probably guess they weren't using it properly, such as using it to dry your hair. Bad idea. Use this iron when your hair is completely dry. I highly recommend this product. It's worth every penny.posted Jun 28, 2010Link to this post
KGreat!My hair was getting split ends from the flat iron I had so my stylist told me to get the CHI due to the ceramic heads and I love it. It leaves my hair softer and smoother.posted Jun 23, 2010Link to this post
Rachel BowlingHairMedium HairOkayI have really frizzy hair and chi would straighten my hair but only on days when it's not humid. It also takes about an hour to straighten my hair and my hair is shoulder length.posted Jun 18, 2010Link to this post
AbbyWaste Of Money And Time!I've had my Chi flat iron for about three years now, and I absolutly HATE it. When I first purchased it, I was in love. It straightened my hair better than any product. But about 6 months later it started to burn my hair, and leave it with this awful scent. I still to this day am forced to use this terrible product because I am still saving for a new one. It pulls out your hair, does not 'glide' easily in any way shape of form, and leaves your ends frayed and split. Do not waste your money on this!posted Jun 12, 2010Link to this post
BethanyChi Vs SeduI have also been disappointed about once a year by a Chi. Swivel cord shorts out. I used to have the Sedu 1.5 inch, and it was much smoother on my hair and did not have the swivel cord (which means no shorting out), but I noticed no matter what heat setting or hair products I tried, my hair never stayed straight for more than and hour after using the Sedu. I stick to the Chi now, despite the faulty cords. I would like a recall of these cords but I doubt that will happen, it's obviously making them tons of money.posted Jun 10, 2010Link to this post
RebeccaBurnt My HairI have used many CHI straighteners in the past. I was really excited to own my first CHI. I ordered this Original CHI from folica.com. When I used it the straightener BURNT my hair. There's no way to turn down the heat on this CHI. I used heat protectant spray on my hair before straightening and still my hair is fried! Frizzy, dry, and looks like I've been electrocuted. I'll be returning my CHI to folica.com ASAP.posted Jun 9, 2010Link to this post

A Helmet or a Helm is a total 100% dumbass who has no idea what he is talking about or doing Dude WTF are you doing? You are such a Helmet

To play the game of Helmet means to touch everything with the tip of your penis. i.e. - to go up to your friend's toothbrush and rub your penis tip on it. Gross? Yes. Amusing? Not really. Wanna go for a game of helmet around the house?
2. | helmet | ||
1. the top of a man's penis, or a hermaphodite's penis I guess as well. Also reffered to as a purple helmet.
2. A condom, as worn on the head of your penis, perhaps a more accurate term. 3. A kevlar, or plastic covering for your less important head, as worn while riding a motorcycle or visiting a construction site. Or oddly, enough, while exploring actual caverns. See spelunking. Timmy, what have I told you about playing indoor sports without a helmet? Naughty boy!
3. | helmet | ||
an often unappreciated and overlooked alternative rock band from the early to mid 1990s. Helmet, sure put on a great show at the club last night!
4. | helmet | ||
an individual who is in need of a helmet, for their mental capacity is so small that thoughts floating around can hurt their head, causing their brow to furrow. a slight tilting of the head is also common. that guy over there is such a helmet. he told me that he would rather have the weekend in the middle of the week, because it would be nice to have a break.
5. | helmet | ||
n. A parasite. Specifically a college guy you don't know who comes to your party early with lots of his helmet friends. They bring enormous cups for beer drinking and knock out half of the keg before anyone else shows up. They are nitwits. When women arrive, they cock block you either by talking directly to the women and making them think they are your friends, thus branding you a helmet, or acting like such idiots that they ruin the party and your rep, or by kicking the keg just as the women show up. Then they leave without pitching in for the next one.
Root: suggested root is the helmets football players wear; helmets show up at a party and behave much like a football team made up of losers and dorks. Look at this f*cking helmet puking on my carpet. His beer is warm and flat because his cup is too big. He tried to rape my girlfriend in the bathroom. He broke the coffee table trying to dance on it. Now everybody is leaving. F*cking helmet.

One of the most original hard rock/heavy metal bands to rise up from the United States underground; The original and most prominent lineup featuring Page Hamilton on guitar and vocals, Henry Bogdan on bass, John Stanier on drums, and various background guitarists. Their original sound was based around heavy guitar distortion with droning riffs, outrageous guitar shredding and solos (influenced by bands such as Sonic Youth, Void and Killing Joke as well as many jazz musicians), loud chuggy bass lines, heavy snare drumming, and background guitars to create a "wall of noise" sound.
In 1992 they blasted into the mainstream with their second album "Meantime", which featured their most known song "Unsung". The band also released "Give It" and "In the Meantime" as singles, but both songs flopped in sales and didn't receive as much attention as "Unsung". Helmet's two albums "Strap It On" and "Meantime" were both so groundbreaking that it spawned many watered down imitator bands that ripp... |

Without exception everyone was a pleasure to work with; polite, helpful and efficient from the planning stages to the day and night itself.

5: Peaches Restaurant Newcastle-under-Lyme Visited by Victoria from Essex Myself and my partner were staying in the area on a visit to alton towers and we really fancied a chinese. We went with the closest to our hotel and what a good idea that was! At first we were slightly apprehensive because of the buffet, often chinese buffets are set out and the food can look a bit worse for wear. This place is completely different. You order as much as you like for a very reasonable price and all food comes out hot, fresh and with a smile. We genuinely could not find a fault neither with the staff or the food. Highly recommend and would definitely go back if ever in the area again. Well done peaches stunning performance. |

It is also extremely well priced! excellent!!!!! |
7: Nectar Bistro Chorlton Visited by Liz & Geoff, Stockport Where do we start. Never tried Lebanese food before but think we might be booking a table at Nectar Bistro again very soon and recommending to family and friends. We were able to see the menu online before booking our table and had an idea what we might expect. The flavours were both delightful and delicate and went beyond our expectations. The owner, his lovely wife and staff were very helpful and attentive. Cannot fault our experience of this very well presented restaurant and again the menu was comprehensive and well explained both on the website and in the restaurant menu. Thank you to Nicky for her helpful explanation of our choice of menu and her friendly and attentive manner. |
8: Princess of Hearts Sale Visited by John & Linda We have been patrons of the POH before it became POH!! We will not go anywhere else!

10: The Blackhouse Grill Chester Visited by John, Chester The blackhouse is great for atmosphere, food and service. I would recommend it to anyone. |
11: La Maison Sale Visited by Manchester been to La Maison twice now for the steak / frites offer. Excellent meat perfectly cooked and presented. Great chips.

18: The Yetis Retreat Heaton Mersey Visited by Charlie C. Heaton Moor Have just returned from a fabulous first visit to the Yetis Retreat. We went early evening and were a party of four adults and six children. The chef came out and suggested that he do some mild chicken curry and other bits for the kids and also catered for a nut allergy... This came really quickly and the kids loved all of the curry, chicken wings and pakora. The adults had mixed starters and it was all great although special mention has to go to the chickpeas! We all then had various main courses which were huge, delicately spiced and with beautifully cooked meat or fish - the lamb shank with ledo sauce was enormous! The staff were incredibly helpful and friendly and we were all made to feel extremely welcome. Will definitely be returning - perhaps without the kids so we can taste some of the excellent looking wine list! |
19: Zumar Sale Visited by Paul Mottram Firstly the waiting staff were completely incompetent and utterly useless. |
20: Croma Manchester Centre Visited by David Robinson, Sale A favourite in Manchester....if you want fast service, you get it...if you want to linger, do so - although in the evenings after 7 or 8pm it can get VERY busy. Early evening or lunchtime is the perfect time. Best pizzas in Manchester by a country mile...efficient friendly service, great value, house wine OK, and right in the city centre. What more could you want? Great atmosphere....tables well distant from each other, clean and inviting, ...just go ! |

Judge Won't Triple $1.05B Verdict Against Samsung
In patent battle, Apple had sought "willful infringement" decision in motion following August jury trial; more wrangling ahead.
A follow-up Apple motion in the trial had sought a ruling that Samsung had knowingly continued to infringe the patents after Apple first informed it that it was doing so. If upheld, that motion could have led to a tripling of a $1.05 verdict against Samsung.

More >>Judge Koh issued a series of four orders Tuesday night that carefully analyzed each side's claims that the jury had wrongly considered the evidence and misapplied patent law in the case. Koh again showed she was loathe to overturn the jurors' decision and argued that the jury had acted to interpret patent law correctly.
"Accordingly, the trial was fairly conducted, with uniform time limits and rules of evidence applied to both sides. A new trial would be contrary to the interests of justice," she wrote in her decision, according to the Associated Press.
[ Want to learn more about what was at stake in the Apple vs. Samsung case? See Apple Beats Competitors With Design -- And Design Patents. ]
Judge Koh's ruling, however, was only a small victory for Samsung. The jury's $1.05 billion verdict was upheld again, and a Samsung motion for a retrial on different issues was refused. The judge has yet to rule on Samsung's motion that the jury's method of calculating damages in specific instances was flawed and should be adjusted downward. The District Court case in San Jose is part of a worldwide legal battle between the two leading smartphone makers that has seen trials in Germany, Korea and England as well as the U.S. IDC market research recently showed that the two companies control over half of the worldwide smartphone market. It showed Apple with 22% and Samsung with 29% in 2012.
Samsung is believed to be preparing to appeal the San Jose case to the Federal Circuit Court of Appeals.
Apple also has filed suit seeking a second trial versus Samsung for Samsung's current generation of products. That trial is scheduled to take place in the San Jose courtroom in 2014.
