Forgiveness Sunday
The Gospel according to Matthew 6:14-21
The Lord said, "If you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father also will forgive you; but if you do not forgive men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.
"And when you fast, do not look dismal, like the hypocrites, for they disfigure their faces that their fasting may be seen by men. Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward. But when you fast, anoint your head and wash your face, that your fasting may not be seen by men but by your Father who is in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you.
"Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust consume and where thieves break in and steal, but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust consumes and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also."

My fourth pair of Madden Girl Getta pumps!
"Yes, I love them! As these are my fourth pair of Madden Girl Getta pumps. They run a little long, so I wear a half size smaller than my usual size. They're pretty comfy for a platform pump, and the color selection (black, magenta and cobalt) is amazing!"

"I bought these to go with a specific dress, but they were not the right shade of blue. They are much brighter than the pictures make them appear. They had a lower heel than most, which was a nice change from the sky high heels everywhere. In the end I returned them"

Not the Best
"I did not love the look of these, they are very long and make my foot look awkward. Was also slipping out of them in the heel, but that could've just been because I ordered a half size bigger. Overall, returned to find better black pumps."

Much of the blame for the failures of the American urban renewal era was placed on the Modernist architects who designed the redevelopment schemes. The Hyde Park A & B Urban Renewal Project designed by I.M. Pei and Harry Weese & Associates is an example of a redevelopment that has integrated into its surrounding neighborhood by responding to its historic context.
The Docomomo US Tour Day program continues to expand as the largest national celebration of modern architecture in the United States and this year engaged over 40 partnerships in 42 cities across 23 states to host approximately 50 tours throughout the month of October. Check out our summary of exciting reports from coast to coast, and join us next year, when Tour Day 2014 is scheduled for October 11th.

In June 2013 Docomomo US featured an article on the plight of Edward Durell Stone's (1966-67) World Trade Center in New Orleans. The former International Trade Mart Building was in danger of being demolished while the city was considering three proposals concerning the redevelopment of the building and site, a situation more and more mid-century commercial buildings are encountering as they are considered out-of-date and left vacant. However, hotels like Starwood's W and Aloft brands have started to target mid-century commercial buildings, like The World Trade Center, for redevelopment rather than going the route of new construction.

On a recent trip to Albany, New York, I stumbled upon a gem of mid-century architecture: the former Adirondack Trailways Bus Station. Handsome and thoroughly functional in its form with bus bays nestled under a supported second floor waiting room, the building, even in its abandoned state, looks to be in surprisingly good condition and spirit. Built at the same time as the well-documented Empire State Plaza (Harrison & Abramovitz, 1959-1972), there seems to be very little information on the terminal's opening date, design or architects. Wondering what other mid-century bus terminals might still be out there, I asked the writers of the Midcentury Mundane blog to help me find some of those remainders and look at the highlights of long-distance bus terminals.

Vermont is not known for its modern architecture. Whether that's because the era — roughly the 1920s through the 1970s — corresponded to a statewide economic nadir or because Vermonters just didn't care for the aesthetic is unclear. Either way, it's difficult to imagine the Green Mountains as a setting for, say, the austere minimalism of Ludwig Mies van der Rohe's Farnsworth House near Chicago, or the sleekly functional midcentury modern buildings designed by Richard Neutra in Palm Springs, Calif. But recent critical reappraisal of the era's most prolific American architect, Edward Durell Stone, has brought new appreciation to a little-known treasure of Vermont's architecture: the Landmark College campus in Putney.

Columbus, Indiana is home to a body of modern architectural achievements far in excess of what would be expected to be found within a city of 42,000 inhabitants. Since 1942, well over 100 works of architecture, landscape architecture, urban design, interiors and public art, produced by internationally known practitioners have been built in the city. In spite of this remarkable fact, the story of this designed fabric has more often been the basis of tourism articles in the popular press than the topic of substantive consideration within the design professions. Attention in occasional New York Times articles, NPR radio pieces, Good Morning America TV coverage, and a sixth place designation amongst cities in the United States for architecture by the American Institute for Architecture, signals that something, indeed, of significance has been occurring here for 70 years. Yet, aside from being promoted as a tool for boosting tourism, little of the architectural or social significance of the modern buildings in Columbus is understood by the outside world.

Oak Hills was a precedent-setting master-planned community in the Portland, Oregon metropolitan area in the 1960s and early 1970s. The Planned Unit Development (PUD) is distinguished by its harmonious combination of clustered residences, open space, circulation patterns that balanced both pedestrian and automobile needs, and the architectural eclecticism emblematic of mid-1960s land use planning and architectural design. Oak Hills is Oregon's first designated mid-century modern Historic District, celebrating its recent 2013 listing in the National Register of Historic Places.

El Lissitzky was an influential Russian artist, designer and architect in the early 20th century in the Soviet Union. While his architectural designs of horizontal skyscrapers on paper are well known, it was not until 2007 that an existing building was discovered in Moscow, the only one in the world. Like the Melnikov House, Lissiztky's Ogonyok Printing Plant is a valuable cultural landmark and threatened by construction. In this case, the construction is of the "Lumiere" elite residential complex for the Cinematographers Union by Inteko. The construction site's proximity to the protected zone of Ogonyok and the nearby Zhurgaz Journalist residential building (also a landmark) threatens the integrity of the structures much like those at the Melnikov House.
The seventh annual Docomomo US Tour Day event is just a few months away and as usual is filled with unique and exclusive events looking at important examples of modern architecture, sites, interiors and landscapes all across the country.

While Japanese-American sculptor Isamu Noguchi (1904–1988) is well known for his abstract sculptural work, much of which is housed at the Isamu Noguchi Museum, his spatial designs have largely been forgotten – either due to never coming to fruition or because a majority are hidden behind private gates. Noguchi's imaginative spaces vary from playgrounds to suburban corporate courtyards, such as the Connecticut General Life Insurance Company (now CIGNA) campus in Bloomfield, CT. His early spatial designs included a handful of unrealized commissions for the City of New York (many plans are cast in bronze at the museum), and numerous east coast projects with SOM architect Gordon Bunshaft including the sunken gardens at Chase Manhattan Plaza and Yale's Beineke Library.

JULY of 1863: following earlier Confederate victories that spring, Robert E. Lee has pushed northward into Pennsylvania. His Army of Northern Virginia bumps up against Union troops in the small town of Gettysburg, and skirmishes escalate. By the early afternoon of July third, two days of intense fighting has built to a climactic showdown, when Lee sends in a 12,000 troop offensive to cut the North's Army of the Potomac's flanks in half. After launching the largest artillery barrage the western hemisphere has ever seen to soften Union defenses, the cannons' acrid smoke and thunderous noise, heard as far as forty miles away in Harrisburg, ceases from both sides.

Caddo Nation Helps Identify New Heritage Sites on Texas, Louisiana National Forests
Thinking outside the box proved to be a winning solution when the U.S. Forest Service and the Caddo Nation joined forces to investigate and identify archeological sites on national forests in Texas and Louisiana.
In 2009, Barbara Williams, heritage program manager for the National Forests and Grasslands in Texas, faced the daunting task of uncovering evidence of historic and prehistoric artifacts buried in the loamy soil of the Davy Crockett National Forest and Sabine National Forest in the deep East Texas piney woods.
So the forest reached out to the Caddo Nation of Oklahoma, whose historic homeland was in the forests of East Texas. The Tribe partners with the Southern Region for training as heritage paraprofessionals and employment on the region's national forests. Read more »

On Mondays through January we'll be posting exclusive excerpts from Glory Days: Springsteen's Greatest Albums, which analyzes eight of Springsteen's most groundbreaking albums and then argues which one should be considered "the greatest." This week, a selection from the chapter on 'Nebraska' that seems sadly fitting for this difficult week:
A bitter, stark contrast � by design � to what Reagan would call his �morning in America,� it�s Springsteen�s most adult effort, taking the relentlessness of Darkness on the Edge of Town and stripping it of whatever strands of hope may have come through that album�s defiant lyrics and potent accompaniment. Its characters are, for the most part, burdened by a crushing resignation that defies any ability to see past it to a possibly brighter future. There�s no cutting the pain from their hearts � for Nebraska�s denizens, the prognosis is terminal.
That�s clear from the first burst of echoing harmonica that starts off the album-opening title track, a deceptively tender first-person folk hymn based on the 1958 Starkweather murders. The image of a young girl �standing on her front lawn, just a-twirling her baton� seems practically idyllic, and then the song shifts almost immediately to the fateful car ride on which the narrator kills 10 innocent people � basically �everything in [his] path.� But it�s the song-ending declaration as to why he did it that winds up binding Nebraska together from start to finish: �I guess there�s just a meanness in this world.�
In some of the songs, that meanness comes in the form of circumstances that drive average people to take extraordinary measures that inevitably turn their situations even more dire. In �Atlantic City,� where about the only hope the debt-laden narrator can muster is that �maybe everything that dies someday comes back,� it�s painfully clear that the �little favor� he agrees to do is going to end badly, possibly disastrously. He seems to know it, but forges on anyway as if all other choices have simply evaporated, just as he does with the woman for whom his love�s grown cold.
Meanwhile, Ralph from �Johnny 99,� out of work and in danger of losing his house, kills a convenience store clerk in a botched robbery and winds up begging the judge for execution. Springsteen starts the song with a howling falsetto yell, and his breathless vocal timbre as he unspools the story is chilling, halfway between tears and panic.
As effective as �Johnny 99� is, though, it�s not half as haunting as �State Trooper,� a short masterpiece of moody desperation that, in its whispered delivery and relentlessly plucked guitar, perfectly captures the dread of a man on the run � ostensibly from the law but clearly just as much from himself. The only answer he has for the thing that�s �been botherin� me my whole life� is a wordless, high-pitched wail that describes the plight of most of the tormented characters making their way through Nebraska�s desolate landscape.
You can download Glory Days: Springsteen's Greatest Albums at Amazon or Amazon UK. And if you don't have a Kindle, don't worry: You can download free Kindle software here.

Mac Mini running OSX10.8
Audio connected from Audio out port on Mini to audio in on TV
Video connected using DVI to VGA connected to VGA in of LG flat panel TV (no smart TV)
Mac Mini has no HDMI port
XBMC mostly used for streaming from sites like 1Channel, One Click Movies, etc.
Issues (might be related):
- Audio out from the Mini is very low. I have to set the TV Volume level to minimal 50/100 to get acceptable volume. Sometimes even higher.
- Balance between speech and special effects is too big. Let me explain: If i set the volume right so i can properly hear conversations in the movie, once there is action, the louder background music and special sound effects is extremely loud. So oud i have to turn the volume down. Then, when the action is over, i cannot hear the next conversations anymore. They are too soft, so i have to raise teh volume again. Until the next action scene, etc.
Are these two issues related?
Is this related to the Mini?
Is this related to a setting in XBMC?
Is this related to a setting on the TV?
Any help would be appreciated.

A Massachusetts man who pleaded guilty to raping a 14-year-old in 2009 is now seeking visitation rights for the child he fathered a sensitive case that could force the victim to maintain contact with her rapist.
That possibility has left the teen mother in an emotional tailspin, according to Fox 25 Boston, and she doesnt want to interact with the man a then-20-year-old she had met through the same church.
She got raped at 14, the victims mother told Fox 25. She decided to keep her baby. And now she has to hand her baby over for a visit with her rapist?
(Excerpt) Read more at articles.nydailynews.com ...
That Judge needs to be jerked up by his/her collar and shaken until the fillings fall out of his/her teeth.
What kind of FOOL would make a decision like this.
Allowing a pedophile to have visits with the product of a rape he committed.The SOB should have been hanged for the rape.
This is the kind of antagonistic and threatening behavior that could get your rapist butt shot right off. But then my family is all rednecks and hillbillies.
Not technically a pedophile, because she was a post-pubescent girl. I get your point, just pointing out the literal meaning of the term.
See?? See??
This is whay all rape victims MUST have abortions.
Todd Akins thinks he should have custody.
This link has a map of states that have some protections against rapists and those that have none.
At first, I thought this guy must have 'merely' committed statutory rape (hence the relatively light sentence) however:
He threatened me, the girl said of the rape. He told me that he could make my life upside down, and I wouldnt have anybody and he would pin it all on me. So I was scared.
3 years for forcible under-age rape is an abomination.
Dear Mother
Get OUT of Mass. immediately. Engage a lawyer, and arrange for any communications to be via him/her, and provide him/her with a PO box in a city NOT where you live. Go Now. You know these f***ing judges: they will not only allow it, but will ORDER it. They're ordering the state to provide a sex change to a murderer, so you know they'll favor the prisoner's rights before yours.
Pack and get the hell out. Now!!!
Not the way I read it.
He served NO time in prison - it was all probation.
"The victims rapist, who was not identified by Fox 25, was sentenced by Norfolk Superior Court Judge Thomas McGuire to 16 years probation in 2011.
Prosecutors were seeking three to five years in prison for the man, who pleaded guilty to four counts of statutory rape of a child, Fox 25 said."
The case is complicated by the fact that the court ordered the slime to pay child support. Payment of child support gives the dirtball a crack in the system to try to justify visitation rights.
My suspicion is that this piece of trash is using the visitation rights approach to get out of the child support requirement.
Were I the judge, and able to go back in time, I'd have given him a choice: serve your sentence (ideally more than three years), and pay child support until the kid reaches adulthood, or stay in prison until at least the time the kid hits 21.
If he was convicted of the rape, and sentenced, then when he has completed his sentence, he does have a case -- by the same logic we all use here on FreeRepublic that a felon who has completed his sentence should regain his right to bear firearms and vote. We all do not require that an ex-felon never regain his right to defend himself later in life.
Similarly, then (and this is a very difficult thing to say, because rape is such a heinous crime), this rapist is still the biological father, and biological fathers have rights that are forcefully defended here on FreeRepublic. He's paying child support. Rapist or not, after he has completed his sentence, he is still the father of the child. Are we saying we want to deny his rights as a father AFTER he's completed his sentence?
That's a tough one. As the father of a daughter, my personal sympathies are totally with the girl. But I have a hard time saying that the father will never get to see his child, or that the child will never get to know her father.
OTOH, it sounds like he only got 16 years of probation, no jail time, and he's asking for father's rights prior to the 16 years being completed. That's not right, IMO. That weak sentence complicates things a lot.
He got probation. The court ruling is consistant with a situation where there was some sort of consensual relationship and the rape was statutory rather than forced, although the girl is quoted in the story as being coerced into sex.
I like that the girl kept her child, the child of a rape. I like that the man was put in a position where he would have to pay child support. Unfortunately, that opened the door for the problems that are being addressed in this article.
Her lawayer is trying to get the "child support" payments changed by court order to "restitution", so that he will no longer have parental rights. That is how it should have been done in the first place.
The article does not indicate that the girl or the parents were upset with the probation ruling, in this article they are upset that he might get visitation rights. They may also have been upset with the court outcome — just the story doesn't say that.
You nailed it. The child support was the key to getting visitation.
The victim's attorney to trying to redefine this....
Part of the probation arrangement demanded he acknowledge he is the babys father and follow probate and family court rules, according to My Fox News station.
The law requires him to pay child support but also entitles him to seek visitation rights.
Now the man has allegedly asked for visitation rights, but the teenage mother says he has 'never cared' about her three-year-old toddler until now, Fox 25 reported.
The man's legal representative refused to comment on the requests to see his child, but said the initial relationship between the victim and his client was consensual.
The teenage mother's attorney Wendy Murphy told the NY Daily News that she had asked the Superior Court judge to amend the sentencing conditions.
Ms Murphy has filed a motion asking that the rapist would pay 'restitution' instead of child support, which would deny him access to the child through family court.
She has also asked that he be made to stay away from the child and mother.
A shocked Ms Murphy questioned why a criminal court had 'punished' the father with potential parental rights, NY Daily News reported.
She said allowing the man access to family courts he could have the chance to influence the child's upbringing.
Ms Murphy, who teaches classes on sexual violence at New England Law-Boston, told NY Daily News:'This family has been very clear from the beginning that they want nothing to do with this guy.
'What legal system requires a toddler to have a relationship with the man who raped her mother?'

I am sure that is the argument the attorney for the rapist would use. But you are gorgetting one thing, the woman who was raped. What about how it victimizes her every time she has to even talk to the rapists? Is that not a form of mental abuse that she has a right to be free from?
They were seeking 3-5 years in prison. He received 16 years probation. Didn't do any prison time at all.
While the girl is quoted here in a manner that suggests forcible rape could have been alleged, both the prosecution and the court appear to have treated the case as a consensual statutory rape case — I say that by judging both what the prosecuter was SEEKING, and what the court actually ruled.
I have no other knowledge, nor am I giving my approval to the outcome, just trying to understand what we are reading.
This ruling is judicial terrorism. If the only way to get the rapist out of her life is to kill the baby, that's what raped girls/women are going to choose. Otherwise they could be terrorized by JUDGES their whole life long.
The probation sentence is a farce and and a total injustice.
Let him pay support for those 16 years and stay out of trouble, and maybe then he can bring a case.
yeah, but fathers' rights and all that...
Personally I think the perp should have been locked up for a very long time, at the very least. Contact with his victim is not at all good.
I'm in NO WAY defending the perp. Good lord no. I'm just trying to line up our (FReepers') attitudes on what status a perp has, once they've completed their sentence.
This SOB has barely STARTED his.
Let him try to visit once, and then rake whats left of him out of the harbour, after he has an accident on the ferry getting there.
this is why bammy is president....muddled unclear thinking and excuse making for abominations....
as a freeper, I defend common sense and morality....if there's grey areas, well that's life.... a sperm donor is NOT a father...
Jamie Melendez, now 24, was convicted of raping a middle school student he met when he was 17 and a foster child involved with a church youth group in Norfolk, Mass. According to the victim's attorney, Melendez went to the girl's house when he knew her mother would not be home and pressured her to have sex with him. She said she felt threatened and intimidated by Melendez.
Frankly, if the dude was concerned with his right to be able to defend himself he shouldn't have done the crime.
Sometimes life is tough ~ as it should be to those who are criminally inclined.
Some. Not all. IMHO the second amendment is a right, the voting franchise is a privilege, and the idea of child visitation rights for a convicted rapist is an abomination.
A father's rights should be supported. I don't think a person who became a father by rape should be included in that group. Not even close.
Being rapist changes it all.
And there are only a few Freepers crazy enough to want to restore felons' RKBA right out of prison. I'm not one of them.
So no way should this subhuman have access to the child or be allowed near his victim.
To be honest, I agree. I brought up the difficult logical point in my initial comment, because I usually find myself in the minority position (among FReepers) with regard to felons getting their rights back.
I tend more toward the position of, "You screwed up and committed a crime. The results of that crime are still around. Sorry, you don't get all your rights back, just because you've completed your sentence."
On many threads, that position draws me a lot of flak, though.
You are not in the minority. The "restore felons' RKBA" types are just very noisy.
I was only pointing out that it seems a majority of FReepers have taken a seemingly different position when it's a firearms crime.
It appears however that THIS thread has a very different consensus, which agrees with my own personal one, that:
I like that. You thinking propellers, or sharks, or just a group of concerned citizens on the ferry?
General Hospital-Luke-and-Laura liberal nonsense...bump.
They should not have called it child support, he should have been made to pay "damages" to the mother for emotional harm, but it should have coincided with the child's age. Why should a rapist have a say in what happens to the baby, what are we using for the judicial system now, sharia law?
Why wasn't the creep in prison?
What judge would allow such nonsense?
It would only be 'similar,' if we forced the felon's victim to sell him the firearm or be in contact with the armed dirtbag. As for the child resulting from the rapist's crime, he/she should be considered the proceeds of his crime. Since when are criminals entitled to the proceeds of their crimes?
When the limitations placed by "sex offender" laws, even restricts a rapist's freedom to interact with other woman/children, why should he be allowed to interact with the women victim and child resulting from his crime?
Finally, felons have never had the right to vote until demented liberal logic gave it to them. Are you on FR to support extending demented liberal logic even futher?
Not at all. Please see my later comments above, #30 and #33 in particular, in response to others FReepers; and please consider yourself addressed by those as well. Thanks!
It's OK. Your second comment came after my knee had already jerked. There are going to be shades of grey, even among Conservatives, when it comes to opinions about how far and for what reasons natural rights may or may not be restricted. Your only error was in generalizing about Freepers, as highly opinionated, educated, thoughtful, and vocal a group as exists on the internet.
That was three years ago....and I would assume this POS is cooling his heels in a prison cell....for pleading guilty to raping a 14 year old....
She is being asked to bring junior to his prison / S
Pedophiles are usually released, if at all, under lifelong rules regarding contact with children.
My personal opinion is that if we plan to restrict the prior rights and privileges of a person convicted of a crime, then the sentence should be explicit in that regard. For example (just making up the numbers for an example):
To be confined for a period of 10 years in prison, and made to pay a fine of $10,000 regardless of how long it takes, and to be stripped of the 2nd Amendment right to bear firearms for life, to be stripped of the privilege of voting for life, to be restrained by court order from contact with the following individuals for life, to not consume alcohol for life, to not drive a car for life, ...... and so on, whatever the sentence may be. Make it PERFECTLY CLEAR that the perp does not revert to normal citizenry, even at the end of incarceration or completion of certain other parts of the sentence.
I see nothing wrong, and everything right, with making ALL conditions of penalty and punishment absolutely clear during sentencing.
It would save a lot of subsequent trouble, such as in this unfortunate instance.
From the article, it appears he plead guilty to the lesser charge of statutory rape and avoided prison time with a long probation period instead.
Some states have laws that spell it all out. Still, there will always be some judge who feels sorry for somebody and try to show discretion.
The defense attornies argued successfully in a MA court that since it wasn't possible to figure out which bat had killed which victim, murder was not provable.
I believe they changed their laws a bit since then, but you'd think that by the time the 20th Century had come around even MA legislators would have figured out how to describe mob or group action and how to hold members accountable for the crimes.
Hopefully someone will kill him and save her and her child from being emotionally raped by the worthless sack of garbage.
In many/most states, going back for ages, any death (even of another perpetrator) during the commission of felony is grounds for a murder convictions against all the perpetrators (even getaway car drivers) who where provably part of the initial felony. The courts and or laws in Massachusetts are truly demented!
You bring up an interesting and critical point. What if the crime was committed in State A, and after some period of time, the victim(s) move to State B (we don't want to restrict them). Then after completing the jail sentence, the perp decides to move to State B.
And let's say State B doesn't have the tight restrictions of State A. Can the perp avoid the lifelong aspects of his sentence from State A?
The only way to enforce the lifelong restrictions from State A is that part of his sentence is to be required to remain in State A for life.
IANAL so I don't know what happens in such a case, but it sure seems this life-long aspect can get complicated if it's not a federal crime.

By PATSY R. BRUMFIELD/Daily Journal
OXFORD – Former state trooper Christopher Gary Hughes pleaded not guilty Wednesday to federal charges he violated a woman's civil rights by beating her in the Lee County Jail five years ago.
Hughes, 40, of Tupelo appeared before Magistrate Judge S. Allan Alexander, who set his bond at $10,000.
His travel also was restricted to north Mississippi.
Alexander set a trial date for Dec. 17 in Oxford before Chief Judge Michael P. Mills.
Hughes was charged with the civil rights violations Oct. 12 and his sealed indictment was posted Oct. 31 along with the court proceedings, although the indictment was dated Oct. 25.
He is represented by attorneys Anthony Farese of Ashland and Jason Herring of Tupelo.
Hughes was a decorated trooper with the Mississippi Highway Patrol until recently. MHP officials decline to give any details about his termination, although they say the Lee County jail incident was turned over to the FBI to investigate.
If convicted, he faces up to 10 years in prison.
The initial federal charges against Hughes were dated two days before the five-year statute of limitations ran out.

Strong Work Shoe
"I teach elementary school and am on my feet for most of the day. I've been buying these shoes for the past couple of years because they are very comfortable and durable on the toes. I enjoy the black pair because they go with many outfits and still remain professional looking. Since I do wear them at work, they last about four months or so before I have to replace with a new pair. No socks needed, just slide on and go! A+ SHOE!"

Work shoes
"Being that these are Dr. Scholl's I thought for sure they'd be comfortable and perfect for a job where I'm on my feet 6+ hours....WRONG! Not only were they a bit too narrow for my foot but when I got home my feet hurt and hurt two days after! The support is not good at all and before these I would definitely recommend Cliff White Mountain brand which almost never hurt my feel even after long shifts where I'm on my feet for hours!"

"As that I work in an office, I needed black flats to wear with.... everything. They're not glamorous, but they're not super sad black flats either.However, they lost a star because they took a while to break in. I have a slightly wide foot, and for the first several days i wore them they were tight across the top of my foot as the day wore on."

The image of woman, which had been the primary subject of de Kooning's paintings from 1950, gradually began to dissolve into the landscape. By 1955 the women had virtually disappeared, subsumed and replaced by gestural abstractions inspired by the forms of the urban landscape. These paintings typically are made with small shapes, tightly knitted together in strong primary colours, becoming a teeming conglomeration of horizontal and vertical marks. The paintings that followed show the shift of interest from city to countryside that was to climax in de Kooning's decision to move to Springs on Long Island, in 1961. Indeed, while still living in New York, de Kooning had taken to painting occasionally in the country outside the city, often staying at the home of his brother-in-law, Peter Fried, who had moved to Springs in 1955. De Kooning was eventually to purchase this house for himself.
His paintings of 1957, such as the National Gallery's July 4th, mark a change from the preceding landscapes in the use of wider brushstrokes, and enlarged and clarified areas that convey a sense of open natural spaces. The notion of rural landscape is suggested by the strong white horizontal band towards the bottom of the painting, which was formed by removing the tape that protected the white paper support. At this time, de Kooning made a number of paintings titled after roadways; Thomas B. Hess has drawn attention to the way this ribbon of white suggests a highway, bridge or horizon line. Certainly this parallel may have amused de Kooning, for he rarely allowed so strong a feature to remain unaltered in his work. No doubt this is also because de Kooning used small paintings on paper as a test bed for new ideas and accidental effects that could be incorporated into larger works. July 4th itself is built from pre-existing work, being composed of a single sheet of paper painted in oil paint, to which torn pieces from another, crustily painted sheet have been overlaid, then trimmed back to the size of the final.
De Kooning had perfected a collage approach over the previous decade and he would often overlay sections of his paintings with drawings, incorporating them into the work, or trace areas of a work to use at a later stage. Collage allowed him to test a variety of solutions to painterly problems, with each alternative provoking new effects or inspiring further possibilities. De Kooning fully capitalised on the breaks in the continuity of the painted surface that were generated by the addition or subsequent removal of collaged elements. The white strip produced by the removal of masking tape at the bottom of July 4th is a crude but startling example of this. The addition of elements of an existing painting on paper to the upper half of the Gallery's work produces no less dramatic elisions, which break up the image to create new structures. Photographs of de Kooning, taken in 1959, show similar painted fragments tacked together on the studio wall. July 4th initially had the sculptural facility of this loose construction, but was flattened and glued down by Elaine de Kooning to facilitate mounting and framing.[1]
Like other paintings from the 1950s that were titled with calendar references, the title July 4th refers to the date the painting was completed.

It also holds the set of artist's proofs of the lithographs made by de Kooning at the Hollander Workshop, New York, 1970–71, one of his bronze multiples (5/100) dated 1972, and a pastel, charcoal and pencil drawing Untitled (Figures in landscape) 1974.

Love these boots
"These boots are amazing. Nice low heel. I have wide calves, and the circumference was perfect. I was skeptical at first, but they fit beautifully. I usually wear a 6M, but went with a 6.5 for thicker socks, and I'm glad I did, so order at least a .5 size up. I bought the taupe, which is now sold out, but I'm coming back for the brown."

Agoraphobia (ag-uh-ruh-FOE-be-uh) is a type of anxiety disorder in which you fear and often avoid places or situations that might cause you to panic and make you feel trapped, helpless or embarrassed.
With agoraphobia, you fear an actual or anticipated situation, such as using public transportation, being in open or enclosed spaces, standing in line or being in a crowd. The anxiety is caused by fear that there's no easy way to escape or seek help if intense anxiety develops. Most people who have agoraphobia develop it after having one or more panic attacks, causing them to fear another attack and avoid the place where it occurred.
People with agoraphobia often have a hard time feeling safe in any public place, especially where crowds gather. You may feel that you need a companion, such as a relative or friend, to go with you to public places. The fears can be so overwhelming that you may feel unable to leave your home.
Agoraphobia treatment can be challenging because it usually means confronting your fears. But with talk therapy (psychotherapy) and medications, you can escape the trap of agoraphobia and live a more enjoyable life.
Typical agoraphobia symptoms include:
In addition, you may have signs and symptoms of a panic attack, such as:
Some people have a panic disorder in addition to agoraphobia. Panic disorder is a type of anxiety disorder in which you experience sudden attacks of extreme fear that reach a peak within a few minutes and trigger intense physical symptoms (panic attacks). You might think that you're totally losing control, having a heart attack or even dying.
Fear of another panic attack can lead to avoiding similar circumstances or the place where it occurred in an attempt to prevent future panic attacks.
Agoraphobia can severely limit your ability to socialize, work, attend important events and even manage the details of daily life, such as running errands.
Don't let agoraphobia make your world smaller. Call your health care provider if you have symptoms.
Having panic disorder or other phobias, or experiencing stressful life events, may play a major role in the development of agoraphobia.
Agoraphobia usually starts before age 35, but older adults also can develop it. Women are diagnosed with agoraphobia more often than men are.
In addition to having panic disorder or other phobias, agoraphobia risk factors include:
Agoraphobia can greatly limit your life's activities. If your agoraphobia is severe, you may not even be able to leave your home. Without treatment, some people become housebound for years. You may not be able to visit with family and friends, go to school or work, run errands, or take part in other normal daily activities. You may become dependent on others for help.
Agoraphobia can also lead to or be associated with:
If you have agoraphobia, you may be too afraid or embarrassed to go to your health care provider's office. Consider starting, instead, with a phone call to your provider. Some health care providers, particularly mental health experts who specialize in agoraphobia and anxiety disorders, may be able to offer you options that are less stressful than meeting in an office.
To prepare for your appointment, make a list of:
Ask a trusted family member or friend to go with you to your appointment, if possible, to help you remember information.
Prepare questions to ask your health care provider so that you can make the most of your appointment. For agoraphobia, some basic questions include:
Don't hesitate to ask questions during your appointment.
Being ready to answer your health care provider's questions may leave time to go over any points you want to talk about in-depth. Be prepared to answer the following questions from your provider:
Agoraphobia is diagnosed based on signs and symptoms, as well as an in-depth interview with your health care provider. You may also have a physical exam to rule out other conditions that could be causing your symptoms.
To be diagnosed with agoraphobia, you must meet criteria listed in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5) published by the American Psychiatric Association. This manual is used by mental health providers to diagnose mental conditions and by insurance companies to reimburse for treatment.
Diagnostic criteria for agoraphobia include severe fear or anxiety about two or more of the following situations:
These situations cause anxiety because you fear you won't be able to escape or find help if you develop panic-like symptoms or other disabling or embarrassing symptoms.
In addition, diagnostic criteria for agoraphobia include:
Agoraphobia treatment usually includes both psychotherapy and medication. It may take some time, but treatment can help you get better.
Also known as talk therapy or psychological counseling, psychotherapy involves working with a therapist to reduce your anxiety symptoms. Cognitive behavioral therapy is one of the most effective forms of psychotherapy for anxiety disorders, including agoraphobia.
Generally a short-term treatment, cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on teaching you specific skills to gradually return to the activities you've avoided because of anxiety. Through this process, your symptoms improve as you build upon your initial success.
You can learn:
If you have trouble leaving your home, you may wonder how you could possibly go to a therapist's office. Therapists who treat agoraphobia will be well aware of this problem. They may offer to see you first in your home, or they may meet you in what you consider a safe place (safe zones). They may also offer some sessions over the phone, through email, or using computer programs or other media.
Look for a therapist who can help you find alternatives to in-office appointments, at least in the early part of your treatment. You may also want to take a trusted relative or friend to your appointment who can offer comfort and help, if needed.
Antidepressant and anti-anxiety medications are often used to treat agoraphobia and panic symptoms that frequently accompany agoraphobia. You may have to try several different medications before you find one that works best for you.
Your doctor is likely to prescribe one or both of the following:
Both starting and ending a course of antidepressants can cause side effects that seem like a panic attack. For this reason, your health care provider likely will gradually increase your dose during treatment, and slowly decrease your dose when he or she feels you're ready to stop taking medication.
Certain dietary and herbal supplements claim to have calming and anti-anxiety benefits. Before you take any of these for agoraphobia, talk with your health care provider. Although these supplements are available without a prescription, they still pose possible health risks in some people.
For example, the herbal supplement called kava appeared to be a promising treatment for anxiety, but reports of serious liver damage — even with short-term use — caused several European countries and Canada to pull it off the market. The Food and Drug Administration has issued warnings but not banned sales in the United States. Avoid using kava until more rigorous safety studies are done, especially if you have liver problems or take medications that affect your liver.
Living with agoraphobia can make life difficult. Professional treatment can help you overcome this disorder or manage it effectively so you don't become a prisoner to your fears.
You can also take these steps to cope and care for yourself when you have agoraphobia:
There's no sure way to prevent agoraphobia. However, anxiety tends to increase the more you avoid situations that you fear. If you start to have mild fears about going places that are safe, try to practice going to those places before your fear becomes overwhelming. If this is too hard to do on your own, ask a family member or friend to go with you, or seek professional help.
If you experience anxiety going places or have panic attacks, get treatment as soon as possible. Get help early to keep symptoms from getting worse. Anxiety, like many other mental health conditions, can be harder to treat if you wait.

We were called out there to provide outdoor catering to a party of a hundred or so VIP's who were taking a tour at one of the region's far-flung mining operations. Trying to sear thick steaks in the open air as the howling wind blasted across the plains was an absolute joke. Within minutes the whole spread was covered in dust. Snags, kebabs, butter and rolls were all sporting a nice warm terra-cotta tinge to anyone who cared pick them up. And people did. They were hungry, worn out and very grateful. Two hours and it was over. We bundled the whole sandy lot in the back of the car, hit the dusty highways and took in the sights.
Ora Banda was interesting enough, for its remote emptiness if nothing else. To see scores of half lived-in/half abandoned houses still in use gave the place an odd flavour and it was only when we dropped in at the local pub that we realised that the whole community of Ora Banda (or at least the majority of it) was seated comfortably in the lounge out of the heat, supping on their afternoon brew.
Broad Arrow - the tiniest speck of a place - was home to one of the most bizarre pubs I've ever seen, aptly named the 'Broad Arrow'. Have a look at the pics: every inch of it, both inside and out, from floor to ceiling (including the floor and ceiling) is covered in hand-scrawled text depicting some moment in time that the writer once stood there, probably drunk, and delivered his/her personal message to the outside world. Fascinating. I could have stayed there hours. Honestly, these places need to be seen to be believed..

By SHARREE JENSENStaff Writer
At the Orangeville City Council meeting on Aug. 14, Jeff Adams, of the SouthEastern Utah Association of Governments, presented Orangeville City's Mayor Thayne Cox, with the Golden Hockey Puck, representing the 21st Century Community program organized by Governor Leavitt. Orangeville is the first city in Emery County to receive all three pucks: the bronze, the silver and now the gold.
Adams quoted Wayne Gretzky when asked to what he credited his accomplishments, "I skate to where the puck will be." Adams said that Orangeville has taken the necessary steps to be prepared for where Orangeville will be in the years to come. Orangeville is well on the way to being ready for whatever the future may bring. He also noted that when the city completes the program, they will receive a personal visit from the governor.
In other business discussed at the meeting, a scout from troop 904 presented the council with an idea for an eagle project. He and the young men in troop 904 would like to paint house numbers on the curbs. The council discussed the idea and suggested that the troop get other troops involved from Orangeville, to get enough workers to do the whole city. It was also suggested that he bring in a stencil that will represent the size and design of numbers that will be used to the next meeting.
Danette Waite reported on the Orangeville City Youth Council. She reported that the lamb fry and kids carnival at the county fair had gone well. She also suggested some changes in the way the youth council is chosen for the upcoming year. She does not want to have an election this year, to avoid the "popularity contest." She had youth that had been elected that didn't show up to a single meeting this last year. She wants to have only youth that are sincerely interested in the youth council to be on it. She suggested having a form at the high school and at dity hall for interested individuals to fill out and provide information about themselves and ideas for the council, then Waite will choose who will be on the council. She stated that there are people who may not attend public schooling that wouldn't get elected, that would be a great benefit to the council. She also suggested that the council keep track of the hours and projects that they work and have a cash scholarship of $200-300 for the one who accomplishes the most over the year. She would like to consider seventh graders as well as eighth graders this year, to introduce them to the duties of youth council. The council agreed with her ideas and suggested that there be a contract drafted up of the bylaws of the council that must be signed by all nominees.
Linda Jewkes noted that they are looking to bring in new businesses that are not competitive with existing business to Orangeville, as well as help out current businesses. They would like a councilmember to attend monthly meetings to provide input. All businesses have been asked for information, priorities and ideas on how the economic development committees can help them.
She also mentioned that there has been a new tourism committee organized to help reduce the excess duplication in other committees. Their job will be to help support other committees and reduce duplicate responsibilities between committees.
Dennis Tuttle stressed the importance of contacting the city prior to building anything. He also reported that they are trying to get rid of the skunks. Pat Jones reported a need for a regulation on when residents can plant new lawn and timing on watering new lawns. The council agreed to have a regulation policy in effect for next year.
Randall Stilson reported that there is a new access management subcommittee to take care of opening roads that belong to the county. They will submit them to the sheriff's office and other hazard patrol to make sure the roads are safe, and then send recommendations to the commissioners. He also noted that the fingerprinting and DNA with the sheriff's booth during the fair went very well. Stilson also suggested that the council take the Fridays following a Thursday holiday off, and work a different holiday to make up for it. He suggested taking the day after Thanksgiving off and working Columbus Day instead. The council will discuss the idea further.
Jeffery Tuttle said that water conservation has gone very well and Orangeville residents should be commended. Secondary water was shut off as of Sept. 1. If water is misused, there will be no warnings given, water will be shut off immediately.
The next Orangeville City Council meeting will be held on Sept. 3 at 7:30 p.m., due to a conflict with the League of Cities and Towns Convention on their regular night.

You can only use a single = sign if there is an object that returns a Boolean value can't you?
so it is compiled as the C meaning
#define FALSE (0)#define TRUE (!FALSE)
As far as I know errors and warnings are returned by the compiler which development is not in charge of arduino team.
There is no C meaning of TRUE.TRUE is not a C keyword, and can be defined as you wish.

Hugh and Shonna Peterson will be honored as the Grand Marshals for Emery Parade and town celebration.
They were both born and raised in the town of Emery and came from good and hardworking families. They married in 1949 and celebrated their 62nd wedding anniversary last December. They are the parents of six daughters.
From their six daughters they have a large and wonderful family that they are very proud of. They have spent a life time of service and giving not only to their family, but have both been very active in numerous organizations in the community over the years.
Hugh was a coal miner and a rancher. Shonna worked for the State Road, the Emery County Nursing Home and is still working at the Emery Library.
They still work very hard at maintaining their yard and garden and support the town in the local events that are held.

This is a bit of a weird request, but ah well. I'm absolutely hopeless in photoshop myself with making things look good enough. Basically, I'd like a picture of my Druid that I can print off, and I don't mind if it's kind of a wallpaper. The reason for this is because it's the first class I ever made/played so she's very important to me. I'm going to keep this picture for life and actually frame it. I know that's really geeky and girly haha, but It's important to me. Anyone whose willing to pick up this request, you have major, major <3 from me.
Visible text: Just 'Shansa'
Armory link/Facial screenshot: The gearset I'd like is T8, the Nightsong set. This is my favorite Druid set, cos it's gorgeous. <3 I don't have the full set for transmo yet, so I'll include a picture of what it looks like here. <--
Here's my armory, I'm sorry if that's not really a decent view of her face.
Helm visible: Yes. ^^
Your pose: I would like a full body pose, and casting something. I don't really mind what, but as long as it looks ya'know... druidy.
General colour scheme: Greens and stuff, but to be honest, whatever the artist thinks will work with the picture.
Any extras: Again, whatever they think would work. This is something I'm gonna keep until I die, so no pressure <.<

Anyone who's still sore over Don Draper's abrupt rejection of the smart and beautiful Dr. Faye Miller in favor of his non-face-washing woman-child of a secretary will be happy to see that the two are going to hit some rough waters next season. Some new photos from the set of Mad Men show Don and Megan (ugh) having it out in front of (what else?) a Howard Johnson. Prediction: Don's stupid marriage to stupid Megan is not long for this world.

|In response to Re: Leak in Sewer Pipe
: : I just recently developed a leak at a point in my sewer line where it connects from my kitchen/dishwasher drain. The leak is at the seal of the connection between the connector/reducer and sewer pipe itself not where the kitchen/dishwasher waste drain is tied in. It seems like a simple problem that will eventually develop into a big problem. Am I looking at replacing a section of the sewr pipe or can I repair the seal?
