Heinrich Denzinger had a good idea. So good, in fact, that his idea is still going strong after 160 years.
Father Denzinger, a German theologian of the 19th century, saw a need for a collection of creeds, ecumenical council decrees and teaching documents of popes to help theologians, homilists and serious readers concerned to know what the Catholic Church really teaches, as the teaching is set forth in official documents of the magisterium — the Church's teaching authority.
The first edition of the volume users would come to call simply "Denzinger" rolled off the press in 1854 — by coincidence, the year Pope Pius IX infallibly defined the dogma of Mary's Immaculate Conception.
It featured texts from 100 documents of the pope of that day, Pius IX. By contrast, the contents of the recently published 43rd edition extend from an Ethiopian "Letter of the Apostles" dating between A.D. 160 and 170 to an instruction on bioethics published by the Vatican's Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith in 2008 ("Compendium of Creeds, Definitions, and Declarations on Matters of Faith and Morals," (Ignatius Press, $69.95)).
The English translation of this new edition is the first in that language since the 30th edition in 1957. It joins editions in Italian, French, Spanish, Portuguese and Croatian — as well as German, of course. Korean and Chinese translations also are planned.
For people accustomed to using Denzinger in their work, the English version's publication is a notable event as well as a formidable specimen of book publishing.
Along with the texts in their original languages (usually Latin, occasionally Greek) accompanied by versions in the vernacular, its 1,437 pages include a "systematic index" grouping the documents under 12 headings ("God Reveals Himself," "God Saves Man through Jesus Christ," "God Calls Man to a Moral Life in Community," etc.), several specialized indexes and a historical introduction by the volume's current editor, Peter Hünermann.
The texts are organized chronologically, with documents grouped according to the pontificates during which they were published.
By far the largest set is the one from the long pontificate of Pope St. John Paul II, which began with his election on Oct. 16, 1978 and ended with his death on April 2, 2005. Texts in Denzinger from the Johannine era number 49.
Heinrich Denzinger, the father of this ongoing landmark in the systematic study of Catholic doctrine, was born in Liège, Belgium on Oct. 10, 1819. The family moved to Wurzburg, Germany, in 1831. The young man studied there and in Rome, and in 1844 was ordained a priest. Starting in 1848, he taught systematic theology until his death on June 19, 1885.
Father Denzinger was an important figure in promoting what has been called the special character of German Catholic theology — careful investigation of the historical development of theological thinking.
In his introduction, Hunermann says Father Denzinger's aim in compiling the first edition was to combat the "theological rationalism" that he saw infiltrating German theology.
He and his work are perhaps best understood in this context.
Presumably, all theology is rational, but theological rationalism is something else.
Under the influence of the 18th century intellectual movement called the Enlightenment and its religious companion, deism, theological rationalism undermined belief in the supernatural dimension of religion and paved the way for the rise of the religious "liberalism" so strongly opposed later in the 19th century by writers like the British convert and later Cardinal John Henry Newman.
Father Denzinger's compendium evidently met a need — the first edition was followed by two more in the first 18 months.
The fifth edition in 1874 was the last to which he himself contributed. Among the editors since then was Jesuit Father Karl Rahner an influential German theologian responsible for the 28th to 31st editions who played a key role at the Second Vatican Council (1962-65). The 32nd edition in 1963 was "completely reworked" by Jesuit Father Adolf Schonmetzer — so much so that the volume thereafter was sometimes referred to as "Denzinger-Schonmetzer," rather than "Denzinger" alone.
Hunermann, a former president of the European Society for Catholic Theology, has been editor since 1981.
Despite its durable appeal, the book has had its critics. Some complained of "Denzinger theology" — meaning theological writing that only repeats what the magisterium has said, without attempting to shed additional light on doctrine. Dominican Father Yves Congar, a prominent French theologian who, like Father Rahner, also was influential at Vatican II, warned against presenting the magisterium as some sort of "unique superbeing" that "watches over [believers and] treats them like children."
He cited other agents for the preservation and protection of orthodox teaching besides the magisterium, including the teaching of the doctors and Fathers of the Church. Hunermann notes the Congar criticism, but then he writes: "The appropriate theological use of 'Denzinger' precisely does not lead to a sterile 'Denzinger theology.'
"The latter represents, rather, a misuse of this collection of texts. The rich profit of 'Denzinger' about which Congar speaks begins to flow forth for the one who deals with this collection in a genuinely theological way."
It's a view of the magisterium and its teaching that the Catechism of the Catholic Church shares. "The pastoral duty of the Magisterium," it says, "is aimed at seeing to it that the People of God abides in the truth that liberates" (No. 890).
Heinrich Denzinger would agree.

Gastrological Forecast
Alibi chef Tom Nayder has discovered the secret of eternal life. Actually, it's really only a method for sprouting green onions, and his sister told him how to do it. But we like to make him feel special, so we call him a genius anyway. What Tom does is simple. He buys green onions and keeps them in a plastic bag in the fridge until he needs them. Then, he chops them down to within a couple inches of the root end. He uses the dark and light green parts to top his low-carb tacos, and saves the white bulbs. When kept in a glass with water just up to their tips, the root ends of green onions will sprout again. Tom says he sees growth from the onions within hours, and it only takes about a week for them to grow enough green tops to cut and use again. He cautions not to put the whole green onions in a glass of water; it causes the outer leaves to shrivel prematurely. He says the re-sprouted onions taste just as good as their parents. By the way, the term scallion is often used interchangeably with green onion, but the true scallion is a distinct variety. Milder in flavor than immature (or green) onions, the white part of a scallion has straight sides, whereas the green onion's base is more bulbous.

All the News That's Fit to Eat
King Kona is the name of a new coffee shop in the First Plaza Galería (Third and Copper). The walls of the tiny shop are adorned with various ape-themed decorations (get it, King Kona?) and a glorious Hawaiian sunset. But the first thing you'll notice when you walk in the door is the aroma that creeps within your nostrils, hinting at a deep, rich brew. Kona coffee beans, from Hawaii, are the only beans grown in the U.S., didja know? We tried a sweet and mild Gorillacino, but were more impressed by the not bitter, not awful, actually good decaf. King Kona also sells cigars, so stroll on by if you're in the mood for a cup and a puff.
Just the Cheese™ Snacks Taste Like Crap
No, really, they're bad
Like a kitten bringing a dead rodent to the back door, our kind and thoughtful receptionist Martin brought me a small bag of cheese snacks last Friday. I should have known to decline them as I once declined a decapitated squirrel from Tiny Princess. But the bag was open and I'm always up for something new, so I said, "Don't tell me what it is. I want to be surprised." Boy, was I surprised—when I found my self spitting every last half-masticated curd into the trash can under my desk. "Good God," I said to Martin, "What was that thing?" He showed me the package and explained how he had spit one out of his car window on the way to work, much to the horror of the woman driving next to him. Thanks, Martin.
Restaurant Review
Nothing Elementary about ABC Chinese
Smart kids order from the Chinese-language menu for a homestyle treat
Walking into ABC Chinese restaurant is like walking into pretty much any family owned and operated Chinese restaurant. The color scheme is red and gold (a symbol of good fortune in Chinese culture), with lighted beer signs and posters on the walls. A fish tank teems with life and giant, round banquet tables topped with lazy Susans are scattered among the booths. But that's where the similarities end.

Chowtown Restaurant Guide
When I lived in Chicago and biked around all winter, I learned firsthand how much a stiff drink can warm the cockles of your heart even on the coldest day. A shot of whiskey brings color to the cheeks, calms the chattering teeth and makes the ride back home through the slushy streets seem a little less daunting. Though winter in Albuquerque is a lot less traumatic, there are still moments when we need a warming draught to get ourselves through. Here are a few places we turn to for that tonic on a cold night.

ROME (CNN) -- Scotland's Roman Catholic archbishop, Cardinal Keith O'Brien, has resigned amid allegations that he abused four men studying to be priests in the 1980s.
It is the second potential scandal to emerge amid preparations for the resignation of Pope Benedict XVI this week and the conclave to select a successor.
In addition to O'Brien's resignation, Italian media has been abuzz in recent days with allegations that gay clergy may have made themselves vulnerable to blackmail by male prostitutes. That has set off speculation -- denied by the Vatican -- that a brewing scandal may have triggered Benedict's resignation.
O'Brien said he submitted his resignation to the pope months ago, citing his upcoming 75th birthday and his health, according to a statement released by the Scottish Catholic Media Office. Benedict accepted his resignation last week, the Vatican said Monday.
The resignation follows a Sunday report by the British newspaper The Observer that three priests and one former priest leveled allegations against O'Brien that date back 30 years.
The Observer did not recount details of the claims or identify any of O'Brien's accusers, but said one of the priests alleged "that the cardinal developed an inappropriate relationship with him."
O'Brien did not attend Mass at St. Mary's Cathedral in Edinburgh on Sunday, but the Scottish Catholic Media Office told CNN that the cardinal "contests these claims and is taking legal advice."
His accusers took their complaints to the Vatican representative in Britain and demanded O'Brien's resignation, The Observer reported. At the Vatican, Father Federico Lombardi, a spokesman for the church, told reporters that Benedict has been informed of the allegations.
The Irish-born O'Brien originally was scheduled to retire on March 17 -- St. Patrick's Day and his 75th birthday.
As late as last week, he appeared to be making plans to take part in the conclave, when the College of Cardinals gathers in Rome to pick a successor to Benedict.
But he said Monday that he would not be part of that gathering.
"I do not wish media attention in Rome to be focused on me -- but rather on Pope Benedict XVI and on his successor," O'Brien said in a statement released by the Scottish Catholic Media Office.
"I have valued the opportunity of serving the people of Scotland and overseas in various ways since becoming a priest. Looking back over my years of ministry: For any good I have been able to do, I thank God. For any failures, I apologise to all whom I have offended."
The allegations surrounding O'Brien add to the scandals already clouding Benedict's resignation, including lingering concerns over how the church has handled issues concerning sexual abuse by priests. The allegations about possible blackmail against gay priests are the latest to fuel speculation about Benedict's sudden and highly unusual resignation
Benedict announced his resignation on February 11, saying that at 85, he was too weak to continue his duties. He will become the first pope to step down since 1415.
The Vatican emphatically denied the allegations this weekend, with Secretary of State Tarcisio Bertone criticizing a rash of "often unverified, unverifiable or completely false news stories" as the cardinals prepare for their conclave.
Final business
Accepting O'Brien's resignation was among Benedict's last acts as pope.
It remains unclear when the gathering of church leaders who will elect the next pope will begin.
While Benedict issued an order to allow the election to begin sooner than the 15 days after the seat becomes vacant mandated by church rules, the date for the election will be set by the cardinals when they first gather, Monsignor Pier Luigi Celata said Monday at a Vatican press briefing.
It still must happen within 20 days of his resignation, the pope said.
After his retirement, Benedict is expected to head to the pope's summer residence in Rome before eventually settling in a monastery in Vatican City.
Church officials are still trying to work out what Benedict will be called in retirement. One suggestion is "pontifex maximus," Celata said. The term can be translated as "supreme bishop."
Vatican officials hope to have an answer next week, Lombardi said.

that dressed deserved an encore! you look adorable.ReplyDelete
i WISH i had this dress because i would wear it every day too!ReplyDelete
I love those unexpected pieces that pipe up and suddenly demand to be in high rotation :)ReplyDelete
Love that dress and I especially love your shoes, how it has two colours instead of just one, like the usual oxfords!ReplyDelete
I am exactly the same as you!! I always think its funny when friends tell me that they bought something and haven't worn it yet as its too posh. . . .when I buy something I love its worn until it falls apart!!!ReplyDelete
i wish I could find a dress like yours for myself, it really does look like the perfect summer dressReplyDelete
I really know what you mean about favourite things, although i tend to do the opposite and 'save' them for special occasions only, therefore they don't get worn enough. This is such a lovely light summer dress, I like it with the brogues too.ReplyDelete
I know what you mean!ReplyDelete
Pretty pictures!
Ah you're so cool! I end up getting angry with the clothes I wear allllll the time because I wish I had more things that I could just throw on and be happy inReplyDelete
It's always nice to have a go-to dress that makes you feel pretty.ReplyDelete
This one is so lovely. I'm actually super happy to see it again. haha.
And those shoes....
At least you look like a beautiful doll in the dress. If you look good, feel pretty, then what else matters?ReplyDelete
I find myself drawing the same dresses, the same hats, the same lipsticks, in the same week.
Sometimes I feel so bad! But if it's love, don't fight it.. right ^.^
sweetness xx
hope to hear from you*!
I know what you mean, I tend to do exactly the same thing!Theres something addictive about it, when you fifnd a piece of clothing you know looks good or you're comfortable.ReplyDelete
I Love Love LOVE your sense of style and your inspiration sources too! I just stumbled across your blog and you have inspired me to do even more thrift shopping and hunting around to find my dream dresses!ReplyDelete
Oh wow, I just love the dress!! It's 3/4 sleeves are just so lovely (especially for a girl who avoids the sun)!ReplyDelete
However, those shoes steal the limelight for me. I. WANT. THEM.
Now please. :)
This dress looks ideal !ReplyDelete
ha, I do this especially with films and music - if I find a song I like I'll listen to it on repeat for *hours*. Glad to know I'm not the only obsessive!ReplyDelete
I think that i would have to wear this dress everyday too. It is very similar to my dream dress, which i have (almost) purchased a thousand times, only to later realize that I had not quite come close to it. I love the fit and length also.ReplyDelete
I am similar with distraction, forgetting older stuff because of the quest to find new things. And i have been really trying to temper this lately, to reunite with the trusted old loves in my wardrobe, to maybe wear the stuff that actually suits me more often, instead of becoming distracted by newness.
oh, your watch is so great! Mine has stopped ticking, and i need to get a new battery. Its a great little detail.ReplyDelete
That dress is absolutely gorgeous. I have so many items I wear over and over again. I think my black & white polka dot skirt is one item I would wear all week if my colleagues didn't think it was a bit scruffy haha.ReplyDelete
nice look!ReplyDelete
Seriously beautiful dress. You look like a doll.ReplyDelete
You look amazing in that dress!ReplyDelete

As someone who has refused to register with a party since being eligible to vote, I also got optimistic.
What I fear though, is that rather than being more responsive to voters politicians will gradually become even more responsive to money. Until their election is based on the power of the voter rather than how much money they can raise I don't think that trend will ever change.

None of the above.
It's worth noting the following:
1. When pollsters call and ask for party affilliation, they're often not asking you how you're registered. They're asking who you identify with (who you "like" at the moment).
2. The "independent" label that pollsters refer to are often just that ... a self-imposed label. It doesn't imply you are the mythical and wise voter who is rational, studies the issues, considers only facts, then makes a thoughtful decision (if only that were true!).
3. Pollsters note that increasing use of the "independent" label is often an indication voters are feeling disengaged or are disheartened with politics.
4. When pushed to offer an opinion, most "independents" will lean either Democrat or Republican. Only a fraction of those polled are truly "independent". A Gallup poll from Jan 2012 indicated from a lean perspective, we are a split nation with 45% leaning Democrat, 45% leaning Republican, and only 10% affirming they are neither.
5. The above is a big change from the 50's - 60's when "lean" nationwide was towards the Democrats. Some of this is related to the huge shift in politics of the deep south with the rise of the civil liberties movement.
In summary, I think the latest poll data (from Gallup and/or Rasmussen, they didn't say) just tells us more Americans are dissatisfied with politics.

If you are a moderate Democrat or a moderate Republican, what may offer you hope is the fact that we have an open primary coming up in June (top two regardless of party).
But if you're pulling for a 3rd-party candidate (e.g. Libertarian, Green) you're screwed because your candidate won't make it into the general election.

Ron Paul's position on abortion is unfortunately a fatal flaw in his candidacy. Abortion opponents who refer to their position as "pro-life" refuse to acknowledge the reality that we have insufficient resources to provide health care, food and housing necessary to sustain the lives of those in our current population, and that an increase in our population resulting from a ban on abortion is actually an "anti-life" position.

I doubt we will ever move away from a two-party system in the US unless voting rules are changed (i.e. not winner-take-all).
The US has a defacto two party system and we've gotten by OK until lately. Why?
According to two long-time Washington scolars, the spirit of compromise and cooperation that existed in the past both in the House of Representatives and the Senate ... have evaporated.

@ken-volok: Close enough for me - I won't quibble over labels if the principles are right. Not quite sure what your distinction between tolerance and inclusion is, though. If someone tolerates all, but would rather not include some in one's social circle, that seems ok to me. I, for example, would prefer not include religious fanatics (whether the religion is politics, gun control, or an actual religion) in my social circle, but am willing to tolerate the existence of their views.

Eric and Debbie Thompson purchased
their 1979 69' Sumerset from Terry at Houseboats buy Terry on Mothers day
With Debbie being an interior
designer there was a lot of remodeling and fixing up that they did to the boat
and they quickly made their boat their summer oasis. "The boat had great bones
and since I am an interior designer I could see all kinds of possibilities," said
Debbie. The previous owner had done some updating as far as flooring and
paint but they decided to change a lot more. The cabin was painted a pale
yellow including the cabinets. The master is a cool shade of gray with
sunny yellow accents. "The guest room was my daughters idea. It is electric
New roman shades were made in
corals and aqua through out. The rear deck was decked with hand painted
Adirondack chairs in a soft yellow and gray leopard print. The upper deck had some
furniture, a table and bar but they added an outdoor charcoal and tan rug under
the dinning table. The rug makes a beautiful statement and also keeps the deck
from becoming to slippery as it is a gel-coated top. On the boat the bar area steps
up to the cockpit area which is also the uncovered area up top. A soft gray and
cream rug was added to set off the lounge area. The cockpit was appointed with
some bright yellow cushions.
Eric is currently dealing with all
the electrical improvements. A boat like this has endless
possibilities for a little elbow grease and some creative ideas.
The Thompsons are planning a few
more simple changes, mainly relocating the laundry room into our master closet
and returning that space to it's original purpose with some built in bunks.
They can easily sleep eight, but with all the open space in the main cabin they
have lots of room for air mattresses. "We really want our friends and family to
enjoy it as much as we do," says Eric. Debbie enjoyed decorating so much that
she said how much she would love to help other boat owners to re-do their interiors.
This is the Thompson's first
houseboat. They love the lake with its crystal clear emerald waters.
"Houseboating is definitely a way for us to check out of our day-to-day life,"
Eric comments.
They both have done all kinds of
boating in their lives. "As kids, Eric spent time with his family both here and
at Lake Erie. I grew up cruising the Gulf of Mexico in south Florida. One of
our first purchases as a married couple was a 19' SeaRay ski boat that we still
have," says Debbie. Our three kids were boaters from week one of their lives. Every
summer they would fit in trips to Lake Cumberland. They enjoyed that area
immensely and soon learned that to really be on the water and have amenities
they needed a bigger boat. "We still wanted to enjoy skiing and other water
sports but needed a home base. A houseboat seemed to be the perfect solution,"
Eric states. With our houseboat they could go anywhere on the Lake and pull up
the ski boat and wave runner behind it.
Their daughters McKenzie 26,
Maddie 23 and son Cody 20, still love spending time with them at the lake, and are
all just as passionate about boating. Luckily they are all living within
a five hour radius of the lake.
They chose the 1979 Sumerset
because of all the room for everyone including cousins, grandparents, family
and friends. Eric and Debbie have gone to the boat almost every weekend since May
and plan to continue enjoying until November. "We have both felt our blood
pressure dropping the minute our feet hit the dock," Debbie laughs. They have
made some great friends at Wolf Creek Marina and plan a few times to get
together there during the winter months with them, especially for the New Years
When they are on the boat they love
to go off into a secluded cove and have their own private lake to splash around
in. Wolf Creek has really made a lot of improvements with a fitness area and a
great restaurant that makes it hard for the Thompson's to stay away from.
They named the boat "One Moor Day"
because whenever they are on a boat they always want just one more day.
Debbie loves the top of the boat
because it makes her feel like she is at a resort. "The breeze is great, the
view is gorgeous and the décor is beautiful," she comments.
They love to entertain and over the
summer they had a Clam Bake that was a fantastic way to enjoy great seafood,
great friends and a bottle of wine.
The Thompson's hope one day the
grandchildren will love it as much as they do.

Popularity (and Price) of Vintage SUVs on the RisePosted in News on April 24, 2013
We could have filed the news that vintage SUVs are growing in popularity under the "tell us something we don't know" department, because we're obviously big fans of old-school utes around here. But it's always nice to know the rest of the world is starting to pay attention, too.
According to the folks at Hagerty Insurance, host of the largest database of classic cars in the world, this trend has been building for the past five years. Prior to that, a cool old Bronco or Suburban rolling across the auction block was looked at as a novelty, or even a bastard stepchild. But during this year's auction season in Scottsdale, eleven early Toyota Land Cruisers were sold alone, including one that went for 88k!
...we're seeing a shift in perception of what makes a vehicle cool.
Hagerty says this niche market is growing about twice as fast as the overall classic car market. Maybe it's due in part to retro-themed revival vehicles like the Toyota FJ Cruiser or more likely the overall popularity of SUVs in general, but these old classics have definitely begun to catch the eye of collectors. Land Cruisers have shown the biggest spikes, with CJ series Jeeps, Ford Broncos, and International Scouts not far behind.
"With so many young collectors opting for modern SUVs as their daily drivers, we're seeing a shift in perception of what makes a vehicle cool," says head honcho McKeel Hagerty, "Broncos, Land Rovers and other similar vehicles from the '60s and '70s were, for the most part, once seen as utilitarian. But vintage SUVs are becoming more and more collectible, and it appears that trend will continue. This is a great time to get into this segment of the collector car market."
This is good news for those of us that Hagerty Insurance reports Huge Increase in Popularity (and price) of Vintage SUVs already own a classic SUV. And for the rest of us, it sounds like right now may be a great time to buy! www.hagerty.com

Celebrating illustration, design, cartoon and comic art of the mid-20th century.

Walter Haskell Hinton's Calendar Pictures
Extremely little has been written about calendar art, probably because it has been considered the exact opposite of everything thought to be artistically tasteful by modern artists and art critics of the 20th century. Furthermore, its fan base has been mostly quiet and apparently not as self-advocating as collectors of other once-derided art forms, such as comic books and science fiction art. That calendar art has remained undocumented for so long is surprising given how ubiquitous it has been. According to the 1953 annual report of manufacturer Brown & Bigelow, 93% of American houses had calendars in them, and 47% of housewives shopped for them even though most received calendars for free from advertisers.
Calendars used to be issued with only one image printed on cardboard with a pad of the months stapled below it, which were torn off as time went by. In this barn Walter Haskell Hinton has placed just such a calendar, featuring a pin-up girl, on the wall to the right.
The space between the picture and the pad of months was printed with the name of an advertiser. Brown & Bigelow reasoned that, "Since housewives spend an average of 4 hours a day in their kitchens, the constant repetition of an advertiser's sales message there will cause it to be virtually memorized."
Calendars were a way for the advertiser to associate themselves with positive values, and those that were to be given away to a wide range of customers had to have pictures that were upbeat and inoffensive. Calendar art has often been dismissed for its clichés, such as the ennobled elk above, but such images were repeatedly issued because they satisfied tastes originating over 200 years ago that had never gone away, in which art was supposed to be beautiful and morally uplifting. Familiar subjects symbolically communicated traditional values: here, the majesty of Nature and nobility of the stag, an ancient symbol of virility. Selection and display of such an image affirmed the owner's worldview and identity and conveyed this to others.
Hinton's wildernesses are always idealized, with pristine forests and healthy animals. In his 1976 interview, he spoke of how a publisher once complained when he included a realistic dead tree, such as one find in any actual forest. An interesting circular situation emerges, where calendar publishers concluded the public wanted to see certain kinds of idealized images, and so kept on issuing them, which confirmed and strengthened that taste among the buying public, further constricting artists.
No wonder modern artists who valued experimentation hated the stuff! But for those who felt modernity was proceeding far too quickly, and who simply wanted their art to provide a break from life's demands, traditional and perfected subjects were reassuring and inspirational.
Yet even within this conservative business climate, there was room for innovation and self-expression. Hinton was an environmentalist before the term was coined, and portraying nature was for him a way of subtly critiquing the impact of modern human life. He frequently anthropomorphized his animals, bringing out human qualities in archetypical ways, as in the elk above, and in humorous ways, as in this sketch of a hapless bear cub with a bucket on its head. We might look beyond the cuteness to think about the impact of man's encroachment on the wilderness, as the deer watching the fisherman seem to do.

As the popularity of Westerns grew, Hinton found he could pursue this favorite theme of his in calendars too, in addition to the work he was already doing for pulps. Where the pulp magazine covers were almost exclusively macho, for the calendar art market he introduced women and romantic themes, such as in Starlight Trail above.
The calendar companies issued the images they bought from artists as large art prints as well. These were sold as "suitable for framing" to consumers and to hotel chain interior decorators. They were also distributed to jigsaw puzzle manufacturers, who produced millions of puzzles in the 1930s.

Hinton secured important contracts producing calendar images for corporations such as John Deere, Austin-Western, and Washington National Insurance. His relationship with each lasted a minimum of 20 years.
Collection of the Ewing Gallery
Washington National appreciated Hinton for his knowledge of history. For them, he researched historically accurate scenes of George Washington's private life suitable for kids, rather than the military exploits that other illustrators had proposed to paint. Washington appears spotlessly heroic and compassionate (when the above painting was completed, fox hunting was not yet controversial). The series was issued in packages distributed in elementary schools, an interesting confluence of corporate advertising, education, and inculcation of patriotic values indeed!
Hinton often included a dog in his work, be it magazine covers, advertisements, or calendar pictures. For heavy equipment manufacturer Austin-Western, a dog – rumoured to be the boss's – sits next to the driver in every picture. This sentimental touch associated emotional warmth with the otherwise rather cold and imposing machines.
It is fitting to end this series with a painting Hinton kept all his life. This image of fox and pheasants was issued as a print, but unlike most of his work, he somehow retained the original art. In it, his earliest training as an academic landscape painter comes together with the traditions of sporting art and scientific illustration to present a dramatized scene of the struggle for survival between creatures.
Hinton's greatest strength as an illustrator was his versatility. As I remarked in my first post about Hinton, he never specialized enough in any one area to win fame. But excellence in a specialization is only one way to value an artist. An illustrator such as Hinton, who had a lengthy career in a bullpen at an advertising agency, is better judged for how well they could shift gears according to clients' needs. Hinton, who believed firmly that art should serve a greater purpose than just his own self-indulgence, made a point of developing every area of his potential so that he could be of service in as many situations as possible.
I would like to thank the Ewing Gallery and the Hinton family for inviting me to write on Walter Haskell Hinton and for providing access to images and documents.
* Many thanks to Jaleen Grove for this week's fascinating series on Walter Haskell Hinton! Jaleen's critical biography of the artist, published by the Ewing Gallery at the University of Tennessee, began as a fairly brief exhibition catalog essay. It grew into a 96-page book when a wealth of interviews and primary documents were obtained. The book differs from this series on Today's Inspiration in that it explores key issues in the cultural production of commercial art, both the troubling aspects of mass-culture images and the material pleasures of them.
Because it is a non-profit educational endeavour for which she volunteered her time, Jaleen would like to invite you to advance-order a copy or donate to the project, to help with production and distribution costs.

Is it possible that Walter Haskell Hinton was related to former Chelsea and Charlton Athletic defender Marvin Hinton?ReplyDelete
@ alex: Not that we know of!ReplyDelete
Jaleen (and Leif)-- it has been a fun week following Jaleen's excellent biography of Mr. Hinton. Most of the illustrators from Hinton's era are at a turning point: if someone doesn't take affirmative steps to preserve their core work the way Jaleen has done, it will be irretrievably dissipated by the four winds. Mr. Hinton is fortunate to have such a thoughtful and conscientious biographer.ReplyDelete
I had the great pleasure of reading the longer version without the pictures. After seeing the full spectrum of his art, I like the pulp covers and the early advertising best.

Thanks for an interesting week.I think WHH was one of those very talented and hard working breed who wouldn't have expected great recognition for his work but, nevertheless, deserved it. And well done to Jaleen for putting all the pieces together in such an absorbing way.ReplyDelete
Awww, David, thank you! I hope you're referring to reading the final draft, not the first, which you so rightly critiqued for its many flaws! I am very appreciative of the fine editorial opinion you gave of it; you helped turn it into something.ReplyDelete
Remo, thank you as well for your kind message. WHH worked entirely apart from other artists - knew no others as far as we know, at least seems to have had no close artist friends - and so he worked without the benefit of critical feedback except from art directors. His neighbors, however, adored him and would have agreed with you very much.
If you want your ex-girlfriend or ex-boyfriend to come crawling back to you on their knees (no matter why you broke up) you need to watch this videoReplyDelete

AMD Stakes Out Mobile Territory With New Low-Power Chips
May 24, 2013 5:00 AM PT
Perennial Intel competitor AMD on Thursday launched three additions to its 2013 A-Series and E-series mobile accelerated processing unit family.
They include the Elite Mobility APU, previously code-named "Temash," and the Mainstream APU, formerly code-named "Kabini."
Both are system on a chip solutions based on AMD's "Jaguar" microarchitecture for low-power processors.
They "are the first single-chip quad-core x86 SoCs in the industry, designed for touch small form-factor Windows notebooks, tablets and hybrids [with screens measuring] 13 inches and below," Gary Silcott, a senior manager at AMD, told TechNewsWorld.
Jaguar "is a higher performance follow-on CPU to 'Bobcat,' the core inside 'Brazos,' our top-selling APU of all time," Silcott said.
"This is a new generation of processor cores that are more power-efficient than anything AMD has produced," said Jim McGregor, principal analyst at Tirias Research. "However, it isn't just about the CPU, it's about the entire chip, especially the graphics."
Details of the New SoCs
Temash, or the AMD Elite Mobility, comes in dual (A4) and quad-core (A6) configurations. It combines Jaguar x86 CPUs with Graphics Core AMD Radeon HD 8900M Series processors.
The Elite Mobility offers more CPU performance and better graphics performance per watt than earlier AMD processors. It also offers up to 12 hours of resting battery life, longer battery life and nearly five times more graphical processing unit (GPU) performance than competitors, AMD said.
Elite Mobility APUs offer full support for 1080p touch capability and full Microsoft Windows compatibility.
The Kabini, or the 2013 AMD Mainstream APU, also comes in two-core and quad-core CPU models. These come with Radeon HD 8000 Series graphics, and offer all-day battery life.
AMD Mainstream APUs offer better visual performance, productivity performance and better power efficiency than earlier AMD APUs. They have up to 11 hours of idle battery life. They also offer better graphics performance, better gaming performance, and faster file compression than the competition, AMD said.
AMD Elite Experiences Software offers features that include gesture control, facial recognition, and Screen Mirror, which lets users share content wirelessly with any compatible TV or display. Compatible displays are listed on the Digital Living Network Alliance (DLNA) website.
AMD introduced the Temash and Kabini at the 2013 Computer Electronics Show in Las Vegas in January.
Comments About the APUs
AMD's new APUs "enable a superior HD media experience and high-end gaming," the company's Silcott said. "There is no competition in the x86 arena for these products at the lower power ranges where 'Temash' operates. Simply put, [Intel's] Atom can't touch it."
The Kabini APU "is squarely focused against the latest [Intel] Pentium and Celeron processors and reaches up into Core i3 levels of performance," Silcott added.
Temash and Kabini "are competing with Intel, primarily Haswell, in the low-power segment," Tirias Research's McGregor told TechNewsWorld." They're somewhere above ARM and [Intel's] Atom but below the power levels of the traditional x86."
Like the Temash and Kabini, Intel's Haswell architecture focuses on improving power consumption and graphics, he said. "While Intel is better at overall performance, AMD is better at graphics. Since the focus in this segment is on power or performance per watt, you have a much more interesting competition between the two companies. I am really excited about Temash."
With these APUs, AMD "is bringing the x86 architecture down to a point where you don't necessarily have to sacrifice performance for power efficiency like you do with the Atom," McGregor said. Still, ARM processors are more power-efficient, and "no one will be trying to put [the AMD APUs] into smartphones."
Intel Strikes First?
In a possible attempt to steal AMD's thunder, Intel announced its new Silvermont Atom processor microarchitecture aimed at smartphones and tablets earlier this month.
Silvermont will offer improved performance and energy efficiency by using Intel's 22nm 3D Tri-Gate SoC manufacturing process.
"We expect to see an increase in performance from Silvermont," AMD's Silcott said, "but our evaluation shows us maintaining a healthy advantage where Temash and Kabini are targeted."

STAMFORD -- A New Canaan man, jailed for more than two years for sending harassing comments to Weston school workers, was sentenced Friday to five years in prison for possession of child pornography.
Scott DeiCas, 50, of 295 Ponus Ridge Road, also was sentenced to 20 years probation after he earlier this year pleaded guilty to two counts of harassment and possession of child pornography.
DeiCas was arrested July 31, 2010, following a 12-hour standoff that began when Weston police showed up at his house to arrest him for sending the harassing comments.
After searching his computer for evidence connected to the harassment charges, police found 50 images of child pornography in the machine's hard drive.
DeiCas, a former Weston bus driver, apparently was angry that a Weston schools official asked his employer to transfer him out of town. The official wanted DeiCas out because parents were complaining about his behavior on his bus, according to his arrest warrant affidavit.
Police became worried that DeiCas was a threat after they traced a comment made on a Weston school's website to him. Police were already wary of DeiCas after they learned he posted a message to his YouTube account reading, "KILL THE BEAST; I will start with the Weston Town Government," his affidavit said.
While explaining to his probation officer what he was doing, Sherman said DeiCas was quoted saying, "I am just interested in delaying and mitigating the collapse of civilization."
DeiCas' attorney, Mickey Sherman, said his client never meant to hurt anyone.
But Judge Bruce Hudock disagreed, saying DeiCas' messages caused a lot of worries and fears and the possession of child pornography promotes the sexual victimization of children.
Hudock agreed to the sentence, but put some restrictive conditions on DeiCas' probation.
"As far as this court is concerned, he forfeited his right to voice his opinion to any town official anywhere," Hudock said, while also challenging DeiCas to reject the plea agreement if he did not like being restricted from ever talking to town officials anywhere.
Sherman quickly said DeiCas would abide by the condition.
DeiCas also will have to undergo mental health evaluation and treatment, as well as sexual offender evaluation and treatment. He will be placed on the state's sex offender registry and pay $300 to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. He also is required to pay $2,500 to New Canaan, $2,500 to Fairfield, $2,000 to Greenwich and $3,000 to Weston for their costs associated with the standoff, Hudock said.
DeiCas' mother, Alice, sat through the hearing, but referred questions to Sherman.

Mistakes prove costly for Mets in loss to Cards
ST. LOUIS -- Considering the lackluster state of their offense, the Mets are routinely putting themselves in positions where one or two mistakes can cost them a game.
Tuesday, they made about a half-dozen.View Full Game Coverage
ST. LOUIS -- Considering the lackluster state of their offense, the Mets are routinely putting themselves in positions where one or two mistakes can cost them a game.
Tuesday, they made about a half-dozen.View Full Game Coverage
Daniel Murphy's pair of misplays in the sixth inning soiled Jon Niese's otherwise strong start for the Mets, who dropped a 5-2 game to the Cardinals at Busch Stadium. Even David Wright's big night -- the third baseman homered and doubled to snap out of a 3-for-44 funk -- could not save the Mets, who remained within close striking distance until the sixth.
That's when the Cardinals blew things open with a two-out rally, which Murphy's glovework helped fuel. With two outs and a runner on second base, Daniel Descalso hit a looping line drive to second base, where it glanced off Murphy's glove for an error. The next batter, Kolten Wong, took advantage with an RBI single, moving Descalso to third.
When Wong promptly attempted to steal second base, catcher Anthony Recker's throw appeared to beat him to the bag. But Murphy never looked to apply the tag, instead trying to cut down Descalso scampering back to third after he faked toward home. That throw wasn't nearly in time, giving Peter Bourjos an RBI opportunity that he cashed in with an infield hit.
"That was a very poor decision by me," Murphy said, explaining that he threw to third because he saw Descalso break for the plate.
The Mets entered that inning trailing by two runs and exited it down four, with just nine outs remaining. Niese completed six innings, allowing five runs -- three earned -- on eight hits. He submitted a quality start for the 11th time in 13 outings, good for a 2.64 ERA, but dropped to 3-3 over that stretch.
"I feel like I've been pitching well, just not well enough," Niese said. "I had a lot of chances to close out the games. I've just got to do a better job of focusing when we have the lead, just putting up zeros."
Offense once again came sparingly for the Mets, with Wright finally playing a central role. His leadoff homer in the fourth inning represented the only run off Cardinals starter Michael Wacha, who struck out seven over six innings.
"He's got swing-and-miss stuff," Cardinals manager Mike Matheny said. "That gets him out of big innings."
Wright also doubled to lead off the sixth, but Recker flew out and Ruben Tejada struck out with runners on the corners to stall that threat. More offense did not come until the ninth inning, when Lucas Duda's leadoff homer made the final score a bit more respectable. But the Mets went quietly after that.
"It stinks to lose," Wright said.
It all came in stark contrast to what the Cardinals were doing, taking advantage of seemingly every Mets mistake. Manager Terry Collins called it the "cardinal rule" with a lowercase "C," though he might as well have capitalized it. Where the Cardinals have proven proficient in hitting with two outs, the Mets have struggled. Where the Cardinals have been able to drive home runners in scoring position, the Mets have stranded them on the basepaths.
Among other things, Tuesday's offensive struggles ensured that the Mets would not win a series at Busch Stadium for the first time in seven years, which is about how long the Mets' current funk seems to be lasting.
"You look at how we've lost the last two games, and when they've had opportunities, they've capitalized on them with base hits -- not home runs, base hits," Collins said. "We're coming up and we're not getting the hits."
"It just seems like all year we've been kind of searching to click top to bottom," Wright said. "We'd have a period where one or two guys get hot and the rest of the lineup's cold, or we'd have a week or two where that shifts and we have a different guy get hot. We haven't been able to -- from top to bottom, on a consistent basis -- have dangerous at-bats. Hopefully, that's to come. Give credit to the Cardinals' pitching staff -- they're always good. But we're not going up there and doing much damage."

Norborne Berkeley Jr., a bank president and veteran of the Normandy invasion of World War II, died at home in East Hampton last Thursday following a two-month illness with congestive heart failure. He was 89.
Mr. Berkeley, who was known as Bunny, was a former president of Chemical Bank and had a residence in Manhattan as well. He was born in Bethlehem, Pa., on June 5, 1922, the only son of Norborne and Dorothea Randolph Berkeley. A sister, Dorothea Berkeley Brush, died in 1991.
He was president of Chemical Bank and Chemical NY Corp., now known as JPMorgan Chase, from 1973 to 1982 and was a director of both entities since 1972. He was with the company from 1950 to 1982, when he retired as chairman of the executive committee at age 60.
Mr. Berkeley graduated from the Episcopal High School in Alexandria, Va., in 1941 and was a member of Yale University's class of 1945. At Yale, he was a member of the senior society Scroll and Key. He earned a law degree from the University of Virginia in 1949 and completed the advanced management program at Harvard Graduate School of Business Administration in 1966.
During World War II, he served in Europe with the United States Field Artillery, First Army V Corps and participated in five major campaigns including the Normandy invasion.
Mr. Berkeley served on many corporate, educational, and charitable boards during his life, including those of Freeport McMoran Inc., Uniroyal Inc., Anglo Energy LTD, Tuskegee University, the Metropolitan Opera, the Whitney Museum of American Art, Local Initiatives Support Corporation, and the Vera Institute of Justice. He was appointed by President Gerald Ford to serve on the U.S. Advisory Committee for Trade Negotiations and continued to do so under President Jimmy Carter.
An accomplished sportsman, Mr. Berkeley played baseball at Yale and also enjoyed squash, skiing, and golf throughout his life. He liked playing his father's ukulele and singing old family songs, and enjoyed New York cultural offerings, especially the theater, and world travel. His life was marked by his sense of humor, value system, and compassion, according to his family.
Mr. Berkeley's family began visiting East Hampton for the summer in the 1940s and had a house in the Georgica Association. He began spending most of his time here with his wife in the mid-1990s when not traveling to their favorite spots in London and Barbados. He was a member and former director of the board of the National Golf Links of America in Southampton, and was a member of the Maidstone Club in East Hampton, where he was the men's golf champion in 1956. He was forced by arthritis to quit the game a few years ago and said, according to his family, "Thank God, I don't have to worry anymore about all those putts I missed."
Mr. Berkeley is survived by his wife of 21 years, Jennifer Puchta Berkeley, and his children from a former marriage to Diane Gould Berkeley: Sally Berkeley Tiller of Raleigh, N.C., Dr. Anne Randolph Berkeley of Wilmington, N.C., and Norborne Berkeley III, known as Bill, of New York City. Three grandchildren also survive him.
A celebration of his life will be held on Jan. 21 at 11 a.m. at St. Luke's Episcopal Church in East Hampton. In lieu of flowers, his family has suggested donations in Mr. Berkeley's memory to a charity of choice.

The training camp practice I attended last Friday was very interesting in terms of the wide receiver play. Roy Williams and Patrick Crayton looked obviously a cut above the rest of the receiver group, but the next player in my rankings would have been Sam Hurd. He caught every ball in sight and got himself open regularly. Miles Austin, on the other hand, was nearly invisible.
It appears, based on the media practice reports, that Hurd has continued his stellar play while Austin has been steady but not a standout. Hurd may deserve to win the #3 receiver role, but his lack of speed will probably cost him the job. Miles Austin has proven that he can force the safety to stay deep when he is in the game. Sam Hurd has never shown blazing speed.
If you consider a three receiver set you have to wonder who would keep the defense from jumping the short and intermediate routes if Sam Hurd were on the field with Crayton, Roy Williams, and Witten. Maybe motioning Felix Jones into the slot or sending him deep out of the backfield could provide a deep threat but that can't happen on a regular basis.
So, in my mind, Miles Austin will get more playing time than Sam Hurd for one reason...speed. I love how Sam Hurd is playing and I think he deserves to get on the field. Unfortunately he is not the guy who will keep the safety from cheating to help on Jason Witten and Roy Williams.

Austin May Win the #3 Job Despite the Play of Hurd

Austin should win it b/c he's shown he can produce big plays in the regular season. That being said, Hurd should get plenty of playing time because he too is good and Austin never seems to stay healthy for the whole season.ReplyDelete

30-Day Challenge:: isn't the thread pretty?
On a slightly different note, thanks so much for all your lovely comments about my new fabric line. I wish I could tell you exactly where the fabric is available both in bricks and mortar stores and online, but I'm just the designer and don't honestly know. I do know that locally, Stitch Lab, Walker Hall, and Honey Bee Fabrics are carrying some of the collection. As for online, I know that the lovely Tammy at Marmalade fabrics is also planning on carrying the fabrics and that there are several Etsy vendors selling a stitch in color. Other than that, I would recommend a google search. I hope that helps.

I don't think I'd be patient enough to unravel it either. I'd probably cut it into bits and put it outside for the birds. Just imagine a bunch of brightly colored nests around your house. :)

Thanks for mentioning Marmalade as a possible source for your fabric. I'm almost finished a quilt I made with a layer cake and really want some yardage for the binding.
The color on that thread is amazing!

I'm the kind of person that would unravel that gorgeous ball of thread. I love your blue hands too :) You can always tell how good of a day you've had by how dirty you are!

I would unravel the thread and use it for a small tatting project.

i saved some twine that had been unwrapped from a shibori project, i reused it on another pole wrap and was pleasantly surprised that it transferred some dye onto my new project. it was a contrasting color and added just a hint of a line where it had been wrapped. i've dyed some twine to use in future pole wraps.
