Chris...This may be my favorite of all your creations...Beautiful work man!
Thank GOD you finally posted about this! Seeing these pics makes me want one, or two, REALLY BAD! LOVE IT! The couple of pics i had of this before are **** compared to these..this shows this off even better...you know im in for a couple :)
I hope these will be around for a long time so that once I get the hang of painting my own buckets, I can come back and build my dream ESB.
If I had one I could take pics too, but they wouldn't be very good. They would probably look like a blurry thumb print.
Kinda like the pic I sent you? LOL...if you need a better one, I'll stop being busy for a minute to take some more
I didn't get a pic from you.
Yes please!
Well, perfect timing. It just so happens I am in need of another Fett bucket (after deciding to have Jeremy sign my current one right on the forehead lol) and that of course was going to be ESB again so this is perfect! I am definitely in for one.
I`m in for one, as well! :-)
Waiting for mine!
I'm very interested in getting one of these, spectacular work!
that is beautiful! I knew the MR helmet wasn't accurate! Would love to get one of these and paint it up!
OK. This should be my first Fett bucket.. :D
Awesome work!!
Oh now that's beautiful, Chris. And it's an ESB version too! I think I know where mt first Fett bucket is coming from! =)
Thanks for sharing the pics!
Well, I guess I'm getting in line for this!
Thats Just the ESB ive been looking for
I hope there is room in the line for me :fettesb
Goes the dynamite, or in this case the FPH2.
The last helmet I bought was the MSH2 from you years ago when you did the first run. this might get me to buy another one.
Thanks again guys :) Still working on fitting in those ear assembly pics.
Sending out some PM's tonight for you folks. From now on If you'd like more information about the stand and it's really cool DUST COVER, just email me ;) lol
Thanks so much.
I'll just scoot in here
PM coming your way.
PM sent as well.

As I posted in your other thread, if it's been going on for a couple weeks, you should take him to the vet to rule out any medical issue, he could have coccidia, giardia, parasites, or bad bacteria in the gut.
It could also be the food, GSD's can have sensitive stomaches. The BB may be to rich for him, the change to Kirkland may have upset his digestive track.
In the end, the vet is your best choice since this has been going on for to long
Senior German shepherd
A little over a year ago, we rescued a 10 year old male long hair, he has spoiled us for all other dogs i am sure, he has been that good. But now, he seems to be having some tummy troubles, we feed him blue buffalo, not too many treats, but he has had the runs for a couple of weeks now. When I introduced him to pumpkin....it seemed to help for a few days, then oops....way worse. He has been on rice, burger and pumpkin for 4 days now, been a wee bit better..but, not great. Tonight I fed him Kirkland lamb and rice...and boy did he gobble that down, that's the funny thing, he eats, drinks, and still seems pretty active...is it just old age??? Truthfully, this is our first senior dog...so we are in the dark about health problems in shepherds. He will be 11 in a few months. I don't have a lot of faith in vets, past experience so I don't want to bring him in, just to get a bunch of useless test that cost an arm and leg.....not too flush with cash. Any info would help thanks

1997 Cadillac Seville STS Problems
RepairPal has identified the most common problems with the 1997 Cadillac Seville STS based on complaints from actual vehicle owners. We'll tell you what the problem is and what it'll take to fix it.
One or more heater & AC (HVAC) temperature and/or air delivery mode door actuator may fail, resulting in improper temperature or air delivery. If this occurs, fault code(s) should be stored in the HVAC control module which should assist in diagnoses.
Overheating of the engine may cause the cylinder head to expand, severely straining the head bolts and damaging the threads in the engine block. This commonly results in a blown head gasket. Our technicians tell us the engine block threads must be repaired before the cylinder head is reinstalled.
The crankshaft position sensor may fail causing the engine to stall intermittently, the Check Engine Light may or may not illuminate.
The water pump and/or the plastic side tanks on the radiator may leak causing a loss of coolant. The engine may overheat due to coolant loss. Continued coolant loss after external leaks have been repaired could indicate a blown head gasket.
It is common for the fuel level sensor in the fuel tank read the fuel level incorrectly. The sensor must be replaced to correct the condition. Our technicians recommend having the complete fuel pump module replaced on high mileage vehicles.
Problems with anti-theft systems using the raised-chip key can prevent the car from starting. The wires in the steering column to the ignition lock cylinder tend to break. The key and ignition lock cylinder should be replaced to correct this condition.
The electronic level ride system may not work properly; this may result in the rear of the vehicle riding too high or too low. Our technicians tell us that a height sensor or exhaust valve failure are common issues with this system. Proper diagnoses will be necessary to confirm the exact fault.
The alternator may fail causing the battery to go dead. The charge light on the dash may or may not illuminate. The alternator may also develop an abnormal noise. A failed alternator will require replacement.
The trunk pull down switch may fail causing the trunk lid not to close completely. Our technicians tell us that the failed switch can be replaced without changing the complete pull down motor assembly.
The EGR valve may stick open, causing a rough idle and/or the Check Engine Light to illuminate.
A Loose or worn gas cap may cause Check Engine Light to illuminate.
The anti-lock brake system (ABS) control module may fail causing the ABS light to illuminate. Failed modules should be replaced to restore ABS operation.
The fuel pump may fail causing the engine to stall and not restart. Our technicians recommend replacing the fuel filter every 30,000 miles to help prevent undue strain on the fuel pump.
Vehicles equipped with the 4.6L engine may develop excessive oil consumption. Please be advised that under optimum driving conditions, using one quart of oil every 2000 miles is acceptable. This Cadillac standard applies to vehicles with less that 50,000 miles. Our technicians tell us that if you experience excessive oil consumption it may be caused by built up on the piston rings which restricts movement, preventing them from wiping all the oil from the cylinder walls. Oil left behind is then burned during the combustion process. There is a special ring cleaning procedure which can help this situation. The GM service bulletin number is #02-06-01-009C.
The spark plugs should be replaced every 100,000 miles. Our technicians recommend replacing the spark plug wires also at this time.

|Topic Review (Newest First)
|Thanks Dan. I'll keep you posted on my progress and I'm sure more questions will be coming! It's cool guys like you that make doing cool stuff like this possible for us newbies. Thanks.
|Yes, I'd make a complete cover for each one. You wouldn't need to use sew foam, if it fits without the sew foam it will fit better with it. You don't need to use the insert fabric either, just the black vinyl. When I used to make cutting patterns I would use plaid fabric to make sure everything would be square and true. I would use a 1 1/2" listing for the trial covers, and if that's too loose, you can go down to 1". The sew foam will make a difference there, if it's slightly loose at first I wouldn't worry about it.
Thanks for the complements, Dan. That's big from you and your experience! I have several yards of some black vinyl, similar to the final material, someone gave me a while ago. I was planning to use that to make the patterns. So are you saying I should sew together a complete test cover to test fitment before I use the good material, including sew foam??? I'm planning to match the rear seats with the fabric insert. Would that change things for the pattern? I wouldn't think so.
I'm thinking if I make the pattern with the plain vinyl and then add sew foam for the real cover that will help tighten the cover on the foam. True or not?
Last question, how do you determine how deep in the listing wire groove to go for measurements where the center insert meets the vinyl? Or do I not account for the groove, just measure to the edge and adjust the listing tape to pull the seam down where I want?
|You've done a great job so far. Take my advice and go slow with the seat covers. Don't try to use the final fabric on your first attempts. Buy some cheap vinyl and keep tweaking your patterns until they are right. Even pros don't try to make a seat cover from scratch on the first attempt.
Hey guys!
Here is a quick update, The UPS guy dropped off a present for me today. The front seat foam I ordered from TMI arrived. I got the sport R/II foam and the look pretty sweet. They look huge compared to the worn out stock foam.
While I was waiting for the foam, I tore down the original seats, repaired a few broken springs (the typical side springs were broken on both sides of the drivers seat), blasted the frames and sprayed them with rust encapsulator. Then I replaced all of the stake wire and upgraded the original burlap with a synthetic deck pad to protect the foam from the springs poking through. Now the real fun begins....I have to make the covers from scratch, cause the stock covers are nowhere close to use as a pattern.....this outta be fun for a newbie like me . Here are a few pics:
|It's also used on Corvette seats, and it is hard to come by. I have a supplier that handles it, but internet searches don't seem to work out very well. I'm pretty sure it is clear rigid vinyl, and would only come in sheets which you'd have to cut into strips. It's available in sheets of different thicknesses from U.S. Plastic online.
Hey guys,
I finished up the bottom section of the rear seat. Overall, I'm pretty pleased for my first attempt at auto upholstery. I think I need to readjust the back cover because the bottom cover is pulled very tight because of the listing at the center seams so the top and bottom covers are not in perfect alignment, but I can shift the top piece left or right and they line up. In other words, I think I need to pull the top cover towards the outside on both sides and everything should line up. There is no listing in the top cover center seams so its not stretched like the bottom is. Here are a few pics.
Top section shifted to the left:
Top section shifted to the right:
I also started tearing down the front seats. The driver's seat was in pretty sad shape and of course there are a few broken springs I need to repair. The question I have now is about the bottom cover and how it is secured to the frame. I have seen J hooks before, but these have what looks like a flat piece of plastic that slides under a lip in the frame. Does anyone know the name for this stuff or where to get it? The original is in fairly good shape, but I still do not want to reuse it if I can find a replacement. Here is a couple pics:
Bottom cover secured to frame:
Plastic channel (you can see the lip it slides under):
Oh, and here is what I'm starting with:
|Then it's the perfect time of year down here to sit them out in the sun for a while and see what happens. Thanks for all your input, Dan. Once I start on the bottom section and the front seats, I'm sure more questions will be coming your way.
|You live in Florida, and the first time that seat gets warmed up in the sun it will be fine.
Hey guys. I finally completed the back section for the rear seat. For my first cover from scratch, I am happy enough with it. They are a far cry from the beat down things I replaced.
There are still a few small wrinkles, any tips for getting those out? What's the deal with steam or heat. I've read that helps but have never use it. Anyway, here are a few pics.
Yeah, the pleats are narrow. I like how it came out though. When I laid them out I measured 1 3/8" and after sewing they are about 1 3/16". Next time, I will definitely go a little wider. Here are a few more better quality pics:
The french seam (so-so):
|You're doing just fine from what I can see. 1/2" sew foam will have more wrinkles than 1/4". Remember, this isn't steel or wood where you can be as precise as the equipment you cut it with, this is more art. The wrinkles will come out. My only criticism is aesthetic. Your pleats are very, very narrow in your insert. Narrow pleats are very hard to make good looking to the eye, especially vertical ones on 1/2" sew foam. In the future, 1 1/4" pleats should be the narrowest you use. The inserts are still well done. Hmmm, maybe it's just the picture is so small.
I made a little bit more progress last night on the cover. Most of the back section is complete. I just have two more pieces on the outside of each side and a small piece at the bottom middle to complete. Then I plan on test fitting it to see where exactly the listing tape needs to go to make everything tight. The original listing was just about non existent, so I could not get a good measurement.
For my first cover, I'm fairly happy so far. There is a little bit of wrinkling around the curves for the inserts (I guess I pulled on the material a bit trying to make the turns). I'm trying not to obsess over it. I had little bit of trouble getting all four radii to be the same. I tried to start and stop the turns at the same points, but I wasn't measuring how much angle I was moving the material after each stitch and I was trying to follow the selvage edge but they did not come out perfect. Looking back, it may have been better to draw the stitch line on the material and follow that since I'm new to this (the rest of the sewing, I've just been using the selvage edge as my guide. Anyway, here is a pic of where its at now. Comments/suggestions are appreciated.

Discussion in 'Fantasy Sports Central' started by round, Apr 6, 2010.
anybody see how this turned out?
Congrats round on your first championship! #4 and #6 in the championship round, it was definitely a season for underdogs! Trophy awarded.
Thanks.... it was a streaky year for me... started out way behind, then got super hot and was all the way up to 2nd when I made a trade with our leader. Which while made my team better... the team as a whole struggled down to 5th I think, then start to get hot again as the playoffs started. As a whole it was the least amount of drop/adds I have ever done, but the bench was swapped around a ton this year. So wanted to talk a bit more trash but I knew if I did I was sure to lose.... lol Had a great time folks.... see ya all next year
Congratulations Round!!! Well done.
Aha, so that's what the trophies are for. Nice thing, adds another layer to the fantasy games. Is it only for the advanced basketball leagues or are they awarded for the novice and football leagues too? And congratulations round!
Only fantasy leagues where there is a draft and so on. If Darth oks it, I hand out a trophy. I had to sneak Jammer, Laimbeer and Woody's trophies out the back door.
Congrats round!
You should have shoved those trophies IN their back doors.
Congrats, Round. Nice season! Also, congrats to the Slugenski's, who made a very nice run.
Just checking back to last year's playoffs: Darth beat Rascoe 7-2 in one semi. LaimJR beat Jammer 9-1 in the other semi. LaimJR beat Darth 8-1 in the finals. Oops, I forgot to mention that this was the consolation bracket of the 4 last place teams..... Will these 4 same teams be pitted up against each other again in the LOSERS bracket in 2011? Time will tell...

New England Patriots running back Stevan Ridley did not practice Friday. This is his third straight missed practice due to a knee or lower thigh injury. Both RBs Brandon Bolden and LeGarrette Blount figure to see more playing time if Ridley is forced out of action.
Fantasy Analysis:
Between Blount and Bolden, the Patriots really have no need to rush Ridley back onto the field. They already have a ton of injuries to contend with whether it is Rob Gronkowski , Aaron Dobson , Danny Amendola and the list goes on. Ridley did run well last week, posting 53 yards on 11 carries, good for a 4.8 ypc average. If Ridley does play though, he doesn't qualify for much beyond a low-end RB2. There is too much uncertainty in this backfield and how they will divvy out carries from week-to-week.

Hello everyone! I'm Colin!
I've been browsing this site for sometime, but felt it was time to get a little more involved with the TDH community.
Of course, like many, I'm aspiring to a Boba costume. But this will likely be one step at a time. Not so much a financial decision. I'm more interested in weighing the individual options of specific parts, what's readily available, quality and reviews.
...also, my artistic side for weathering armor is untested! :lol Best to take it as slow as I can!
I've recently completed my first TK armor over the last six months. Had a 7 hour troop in that over Halloween night! Also finished a PVC mannequin for it this week. Working on a custom E-11 blaster while I research all the angles of the upcoming Fett project!

I started using JB weld. It seems really messy. Are there maybe two different kinds? Mine is kinda runny, not anything like a putty.
Printable View
I started using JB weld. It seems really messy. Are there maybe two different kinds? Mine is kinda runny, not anything like a putty.
It's possible you aren't using the correct ratio?
Original JB Weld, the red/black/white package, is indeed messy, and is not intended to form a putty-like substance. When mixed in proper ratio, one part to one part, it should turn a uniform grey color. It takes a few hours to set, and usually hardens overnight. The great thing about JB Weld...it dries hard as a rock!
If you're looking for someone with more of a 'putty' texture, I recommend Plumber's Putty, available at most hardware stores.
You are on the right track. JB Weld is great stuff.
However, while building my Jango, I quickly encountered the same problem.
What you want to get is JB Quick. Made by the same company and probably sold in the same area.
This stuff lives up to its name. Only mix up what you can use fast, at it sets up, well, quick. You will have about four minutes from the time you finish mixing until it begins to set up and becomes unworkable. It gets quite warm while its is curing (exothermic reaction between the two part mixture).
I have found that mixing it on a plastic plate with a plastic knife works great. Just squeeze out the amount needed, mix with the knife and then spread into place. Maybe put it on a little thick and spread out beyond the are that you are working in because you'll want a little extra so that you can taper /feather out the area once you go back to sand it. Make sure that you wear a dust mask when sanding, you DO NOT want to inhale the dust. Nasty stuff. Then prime /paint or cover with good old Rub-n-Buff.
Sorry if this is long, but I wanted to make sure that my first post was helpful.

Cthulhu Saves the World:
" So when I say Cthulhu Saves The World is already one of my favourite games of 2011 you can be sure I've not been swayed by its astonishingly precise pastiche of early 1990s JRPG cliches, strident synth music, chunky menus and all. It's simply a really clever, hugely enjoyable game, and it's as much honest tribute as cheeky spoof."
" It's rare to find a game that is both entertaining and genuinely funny, and so far Cthulhu Saves the World is both."
" Honestly? This is too good to be stuck in the 360 indie game store"
Breath of Death VII: The Beginning:
"Breath of Death VII is one of those rare parody games that recognises and mocks the pitfalls of its genre, but then sidesteps them in its own design, equipping itself with a veneer of smug satisfaction that transfers to the gamer."
"The writing is impeccable, sharp, and one will find themselves in gigglefits throughout, especially when they begin to recognize many of the references being made to older games, and the vast number of play-on-words."
"Breath of Death VII: The Beginning is a real surprise. It's an RPG that feels like it was a classic from back in the day, but it doesn't have any RPG hang-ups."
"For an RPG whose sheer fun factor is on par with a lot of the $30 to $60 games people shell out multiple bills for, it's an extreme bargain."

Connor Panas has been named the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference Male Student-Athlete of the Year in a vote of the league's sports information directors. Panas is the second Canisius baseball player to win the award in the past four years as Sean Jamieson claimed the award in 2011.
"This is a great honor for Connor, our baseball program, our athletic department and Canisius College," Director of Athletics Bill Maher said. "To have a student-athlete from our baseball program win this award for the second time in four years speaks to the quality of student-athletes that Mike is recruiting while also finding tremendous success on the field."
"I am extremely proud of Connor's achievement," coach Mike McRae said. "This award epitomizes the marriage of athletics and academics. Connor's passion and drive has enabled him to be extremely successful on and off the field. The MAAC has rewarded a very deserving young man."
Panas claimed a number of awards after a prolific junior season including Louisville Slugger Second-Team All-American, Capital One Academic Second-Team All-American, ABCA Third-Team All-American, Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference Player of the Year and ECAC Division I First-Team All-Star. The Toronto, Ontario native also was a unanimous choice to the All-MAAC First Team, a Louisville Slugger National Player of the Week, a two-time MAAC Player of the Week and an ABCA Northeast All-Region First-Team selection.
Panas, who has a 3.77 GPA and is majoring in physical education, was third in the MAAC in batting average (.362), first in home runs (six), RBI (51) and slugging percentage (.574), second in doubles (16) and fifth in on-base percentage (.443). The third baseman was one of four players at the Division I level with a .350 batting average, 50 RBI and 15 stolen bases. Panas reached base in 43 of 47 starts, including the final 18 games of the season, and 10 of 19 times in the MAAC Championship. He had a career-long 15-game hitting streak and led the team with 22 multi-hit games and 13 multi-RBI games.
Canisius posted a 40-16 record en route to winning the 2014 MAAC regular-season title. The Golden Griffins have won at least 40 games in each of the last two seasons, one of 14 teams nationally to post that win total prior to the NCAA Tournament. Canisius also ranks 24th nationally with a .635 winning percentage since 2008.
Canisius women's lacrosse player Maria Kotas earned honorable mention recognition for the MAAC Female Student-Athlete of the Year award, which was awarded to Kate Avery of Iona College.

Rethinking that word "evangelical"
Professor Marcia Pally aptly describes the evangelical polyphony of our time. Despite the dreadful habit of newspapers of using the term "evangelical" to mean "white social conservative bloc of the GOP," contemporary evangelical political views are much more diverse than that.
As Pally notes here and in her book, The New Evangelicals, it is not accurate to say that the diversity of evangelical politics and public engagement is some kind of new trend. What is actually the historical aberration is the way a distinguished global movement within Protestant Christianity that has always had diverse politics got swept into the Republican Southern Strategy of the Nixon years and beyond. It is a terrible historical accident that the movement that gave us the abolitionist William Wilberforce and the firebrands of the early Social Gospel movement became identified, after 1972, with reactionary white right-wing politics in the American South.Read the rest of Rethinking that word "evangelical".

I'd take my chances with Don Kelly on the mound over coke.
Jack of all trades.....he probably will be the Tiger manager after Ausmus....nice outing today proving he can contribute more so than Coke..
well Al B should have gotten an out when Gonzalez couldnt reach that bloop over the third base bag....... Nathan also should have gotten two outs when hunter misplayed a fly out and when Gonzalez double pumped a throw off the first base bag.....He did give up the double BUT struck out Cruz and popped out Davis....and still only threw 15 pitches. That's better than the 30 that Fat grande dude would have thrown.
Torii's off the hook with his bat.
Guess he's not old yet. Good sign. Also, another good outing for jv.
That game anyway.
Verlander's last 7 outings: Innings/ ER 6.0/ 0 (2013) 6.0/ 0 (2013) 7.0/ 0 (postseason) 8.0/ 0 (postseason) 8.0/ 1 (postseason) 6.0/ 2 (2014) 8.0/ 2 (2014) ERA over this stretch of 49.0 innings = 0.92 Blazing
Looks like he is struggling.
He is doing great, but team has only won 2 of those last 5 games,
Our bullpen is horrendous.
And it doesn't seem to be getting any better.... Detroit Tigers relief pitcher Evan Reed investigated in alleged sexual assault | Detroit Free Press | freep.com
A GREAT treat for MLB.TV subscribers is to hear VIN SCULLY call the tigers /Dodgers game tonight!!
Max is struggling.
so r u..................lol
Coke fizzes out again....Tigers lose in extra innings and game one of the so called spring world series.....
out hit 5-10 Joba takes the L. Davis slams the sideline concrete and messes up knee. Hope its not very bad.
it was Tori Hunter, not Davis. I was watching the game and it was a prime example of not knowing a stadium...stupid interleague play!! And for old guys like us, it's the days AFTER that's gonna be troubling.....
And then he shows his age.......SMH! Dodgers announcer Vin Scully makes embarrassing error on air during Tigers game | The Detroit News
I wonder how the relievers in Toledo are.
The Mud Hens have only played 5 games so it's a little early to get a read on it.

My bud moved up to Seward a little over a year ago. He is now the proud owner of a POS RV so I immediately booked a flight for AK to visit. We will be traveling fishing and hunting for 3 weeks at the end of August and half of September. This is a dream trip as one of us just got married (no kids yet), Im next soon, and my friend in AK will follow. This will probably be the last big guys trip for a long time and there will be guaranteed shenanigans.
I am the duck hunter of the three and without dropping thousands in the taking of Alaskans big game, waterfowl is looking to be the most BANG for the buck. Our friend who lives there will have Alaskan Residency so he will be the shooter on big game. The other two of us will just shoot winged fare.
So where do we go? We will be towing a 14' boat with small motor behind the RV and our plans are wide open. I am having a hard time narrowing the prospects right now. I am not asking for secret spots (PM me if your traveling to SC around thanksgiving or KY in January), but if you could share your suggestions, I would be very grateful.

I strongly believe that in the Empire no costume requires so much to build up than the Fett. A costume so pricey in details as the bounties claimed for build up.
How much money would "the hunters" say to be put in everything including painting techniques, props, etc for an accurate Fett costume?

- Core Learning Poems
- The Sun Rising by John Donne
Writing Ideas
1. "The Sun Rising" is an aubade: a poem greeting the dawn, often involving lovers reluctant to separate. Using Donne's poem as inspiration, write a modern aubade. For more contemporary models, read one of the following:
"Aubade" by Amber Flora Thomas
"An Aubade" by Joel Brouwer
"Aubade" by Philip Larkin
2. In "The Sun Rising," Donne speaks to the sun using apostrophe, a rhetorical device in which he addresses an inanimate object (the sun) as if it were a person able to respond. Using apostrophe, write your own poem addressing an imaginary or absent object as if it were present and able to reply.
Discussion Questions
1. How does Donne's speaker feel about the coming of dawn? Which words or phrases best suggest his attitude?
2. How does Donne compare the sun to a person? In his personification, what sort of person does Donne suggest the sun is? Is his comparison reasonable or absurd? Why or why not?
3. Donne begins the poem by telling the sun to go bother "late school boys" and "country ants" because it can have no effect on love. Where else does Donne use wit, irony, or wordplay in the poem? What effect does it have on your understanding of the poem's message?
What relationship exists between the public and private spheres in the poem, and how does Donne distinguish between them? Which realm does Donne seem to privilege?
Teaching Tips
1. Before teaching, review Stephen Burt's poem guide. Also, have small groups of students research the following terms and share them with classmates before presenting the poem: John Donne, Copernicus, Galileo, Heliocentrism, Geocentrism, Aubade, Conceit, and Apostrophe; they can find the latter three terms defined in the Learning Area's glossary, as well as a detailed biography of Donne linked next to the poem. Students may hyperlink their research terms to the poem to share on a class web site.
2. After paraphrasing the first stanza of the poem with your class, encourage students to read the text out loud multiple times as they work in small groups to paraphrase the other two stanzas, looking up words as necessary. Have volunteers from each group perform their paraphrase of the speaker's address to the sun. Then in a large group debrief, create a class description of the moves Donne makes in each of the three stanzas of the poem. Start by asking what kind of speech act does the speaker perform in each stanza: warning, challenging, showing off, etc. What audiences are being addressed in each of the stanzas? How do these movements contribute to the overall meaning of the text?
3. Have students explore "Assumption of the Virgin," the painting by Renaissance artist Lodovico Cigoli who was a close friend of Galileo's. The first example of Galileo's telescopic views of the moon to appear in visual art, the painting depicts the moon at the feet of the Virgin Mary. Have students discuss how scientific developments of the Renaissance may have shaped Cigoli's painting and Donne's imaginative portrayal of the speaker's encounter with the sun in this aubade. Have them consider Donne's speaker's persona, perspective, and tone in light of the intellectual milieu of this period. Extend the discussion to include a comparison of a painting from the same period, "Landscape with the Fall of Icarus" by Pieter Bruegel, which depicts a very different relationship between human beings and heavenly bodies. W.H. Auden's poem "Musée des Beaux Arts" comments on this painting.
4. After exploring the poem in the context of its intellectual origins, its genre (the aubade) and its formal elements (the apostrophe and the conceit), have students prepare a radio documentary or webcast in which a formal reading of the poem and an interpretive discussion are included. Models of interpretive discussions of poems such as William Blake's "The Garden of Love" and Plath's "Fever 103" are available.

John Donne: "The Sun Rising"
Poem Guide
John Donne (1572-1631) wrote a prose work called Paradoxes and Problems, and his life presents plenty of both: he was born a Catholic, gained notoriety for sacrilegious verse, and later in life became an Anglican priest. Though some of his poems defended libertinism and casual sex, he destroyed his first career by falling in love, and stayed with the woman he married until her death. His poems picked up a reputation for head-scratchingly bizarre intellectualism—one reason they're now called metaphysical—but some of them are the most deeply felt poems of romantic love in the language. One such poem is "The Sun Rising."
A former law student whose London relatives were persecuted for remaining Catholic after England had turned Protestant, Donne ruined what could have been a fine career at court when in 1601 he secretly married his employer's niece, Anne More. The next year, Donne's employer found out and fired him. Donne later found his calling as an Anglican cleric, giving dramatic sermons at London's most famous church. Until after his death, most of Donne's poems circulated only in manuscript: his friends copied them by hand, then showed them to their friends, who copied them into their commonplace books. (If you think of a book of poems as like a compact disc, then a commonplace book is like a mix tape, or an iPod; Donne's poems were like popular, unreleased MP3s.)
Donne liked to make long, odd comparisons, called conceits: he compared two lovers to the parts of a compass, for example, and likened a teardrop to a navigator's globe. Later poets such as Abraham Cowley (1618-1667) built whole careers by imitating those conceits. By the time Cowley died, though, conceits had gone out of fashion. When the influential critic Samuel Johnson (1709-1784) coined the term metaphysical poets, he meant it as an insult: "Metaphysical poets" such as Cowley and Donne, he wrote, used their conceits to present "heterogenous ideas ... yoked by violence together"; "they were not successful in representing or moving the affections." (In other words, they had too much head, not enough heart.) The term metaphysical stuck, though the judgment did not: when modernist critics and poets such as T.S. Eliot wanted to rehabilitate Donne, they defended something called metaphysical poetry, and praised the metaphysical conceit.
Readers like to believe that Donne's libertine poems—which insult women in general, or recommend sex with many partners—date from his law-student days, while the passionate, sincere-sounding love poems reflect his romance and marriage with Anne. As with Shakespeare's sonnets, nobody really knows. It's no wonder, though, that so many readers (myself included) imagine "The Sun Rising" as written to Anne. In it, Donne and his beloved wake up together, and Donne fears that someone will walk in on them: the unwelcome intruder is (not her father, nor his boss, nor a London stranger, but) the sun, which (here's the conceit) Donne treats as a person:
Busy old fool, unruly sun,
Why dost thou thus,
Through windows, and through curtains call on us?
Must to thy motions lovers' seasons run?
Saucy pedantic wretch, go chide
Late school boys and sour prentices,
Go tell court huntsmen that the king will ride,
Call country ants to harvest offices,
Love, all alike, no season knows nor clime,
Nor hours, days, months, which are the rags of time.
"Prentices" are apprentices, who (like today's sullen teens) oversleep; "motions" are regular changes, such as sunset or sunrise, spring or fall. Donne and Anne (we might as well call her Anne) believe it's more important to be in love than to be on time: they won't let the hour, or the month, or even their relative ages, tell them what to do.
Nor do they want to get up out of their shared bed. From medieval French to modern English, there's a tradition of poems called aubades, about lovers who awaken at dawn: often they are adulterous or illicit lovers, who don't want to separate but don't want to get caught. Donne wrote such a poem himself, called "Break of Day." In "The Sun Rising," though, Donne and Anne feel right at home: there's no chance either of them will go anywhere, because their love has placed them where they belong, and everything else must reorient itself around them.
It follows that Donne is the master of the house; the sun, as a guest, should respect and obey him. Donne therefore reverses the conceit: having likened the sun to a person, he now gives a person—himself—the powers of the sun:
Thy beams, so reverend and strong
Why shouldst thou think?
I could eclipse and cloud them with a wink,
But that I would not lose her sight so long;
If her eyes have not blinded thine,
Look, and tomorrow late, tell me,
Whether both th' Indias of spice and mine
Be where thou leftst them, or lie here with me.
Ask for those kings whom thou saw'st yesterday,
And thou shalt hear, All here in one bed lay.
Donne could occlude or outshine the sun (because he, too, is a celestial body), but he won't (because then his beloved would not see him, and he would not see her). Since everything important to Donne (i.e., Anne) stays indoors, not outside, Donne feels as if everything commonly believed important—spices from the Indian Ocean, precious metals from West Indies mines—remains securely indoors too.
In fact (here we see the extravagance of the conceit), everything and everyone of any importance is already in Donne's bed:
She's all states, and all princes, I,
Nothing else is.
Princes do but play us; compared to this,
All honor's mimic, all wealth alchemy.
Thou, sun, art half as happy as we,
In that the world's contracted thus.
Thine age asks ease, and since thy duties be
To warm the world, that's done in warming us.
Shine here to us, and thou art everywhere;
This bed thy center is, these walls, thy sphere.
The sun, having been shown the door, now gets asked to remain. The pronouns "I" and "she" disappear, leaving only "us" and "we"; thus combined, the lovers become the whole Earth, and since the sun's job is to warm the Earth, it ought to stay where the lovers are, and orbit them. Not only will Donne and Anne escape detection and censure, since the sun will never shine anywhere else, but the lovers won't even have to get out of bed.
Fancy metaphysical conceits differ from plain-Jane metaphors not just because conceits run all the way through a poem, but also because they often bring in the latest in Renaissance science and technology. Remember that the sun is like a person, but Donne is like a celestial body: he and Anne, together, replace the Earth. "Sphere" comes from the old, Ptolemaic cosmology (the one Galileo and Copernicus disproved), in which the sun supposedly went round the Earth (as did all other planets, each in its own "sphere"). In Donne's time, astronomers (and astrologers) still argued about what went around what. His interest in scientific controversy, in ongoing disputes about natural and supernatural truths, gave him metaphors for his poems. The same interest helps give this poem its emotional force: nobody knows if the sun goes around the Earth, or vice versa, that last line implies, but I'm quite certain that my life revolves around yours.
Donne's conceit describes the sun as a human being who walks in on the lovers, and then—with help from what was, to Donne, modern science—makes himself and his beloved into their own cosmic entity, their own world. You might see how readers who (like Johnson) thought poets should stay away from complex images found such flights of figuration distasteful. In "The Sun Rising," though—and in other Donne poems akin to it ("The Canonization," for example, and "The Relic")—the figure of speech is extreme for a very good reason: Donne's devotion is extreme, too, and only "heterogenous ideas yoked by violence together," only the language of the metaphysical conceit, can express the depths of his love.

John Donne's standing as a great English poet, and one of the greatest writers of English prose, is now assured. However, it has been confirmed only in the early 20th century. The history of Donne's reputation is the most remarkable of any major writer in English; no other body of great poetry has fallen so far from favor for so long and been generally condemned as inept and crude. In Donne's own day his poetry was highly prized among the small circle of his admirers, who read it as it was circulated in manuscript, and in his later years he gained wide fame as a preacher. For some 30 years after his death successive editions of his verse stamped his powerful influence upon English poets. During the Restoration his writing went out of fashion and remained so for several centuries. Throughout the 18th century, and for much of the 19th...

Eating Veal
I was in the kosher meat market the other day and they were selling veal. I don't understand how veal can be kosher, given the horrific conditions in which veal is raised. Please explain.
The Aish Rabbi Replies:
There are different mitzvahs in the Torah which address different issues. "Kosher" has to do with the species of animal, the way it is slaughtered, and removal of the blood from the meat.
"Kosher" does not address the issue of conditions in which the animal is raised.
There is another mitzvah, however, which addresses your concern. "Tzar Baalei Chaim" is the Torah prohibition against causing pain to animals. And based on this, the great Rabbi Moshe Feinstein indeed forbade raising animals in cramped and painful conditions.
As an aside, there are some veal farms who go to great lengths to treat calves in an ethical manner.
Other mitzvahs concerned with the protection of animals include:
- It is prohibited to cause pain to animals – tzaar ba'alei chaim. (Talmud – Baba Metzia 32b, based on Exodus 23:5)
- One is obligated to relieve an animal's suffering (i.e. unburden it), even if it belongs to your enemy. (Exodus 23:5)
- If an animal depends on you for sustenance, it is forbidden to eat anything until feeding the animal first. (Talmud – Brachot 40a, based on Deut. 11:15)
- We are commanded to grant our animals a day of rest on Shabbat. (Exodus 20:10)
- It is forbidden to use two different species to pull the same plow, since this is unfair to the weaker animal. (Deut. 22:10)
- It is a mitzvah to send away a mother bird before taking her young. (Deut. 22:7)
- It is forbidden to kill a cow and her calf on the same day. (Leviticus 22:28)
- It is prohibited to sever and eat a limb off a live animal. (Genesis 9:4; this is one of the "Noachide" laws that apply to Jews and non-Jews alike.)
- Shechita (ritual slaughter) must be done with a minimum of pain to the animal. The blade must be meticulously examined to assure the most painless form of death possible. ("Chinuch" 451; "Pri Megadim" – Introduction to Shechita Laws).
- Hunting animals for sport is viewed with serious disapproval by our Sages. (Talmud – Avoda Zara 18b; "Noda BiYehuda" 2-Y.D. 10)
There is actually another mitzvah concerning the protection of animals which relates to your question. This is the prohibition of muzzling an animal when working in the field, thereby preventing it from eating what it sees. The Sages explain that animals derive pleasure from the act of eating, and muzzling unjustly deprives them of that basic pleasure. Based on this, Rabbi Feinstein forbade feeding animals chemicals in place of food, since this would deprive them of the pleasure of eating. ("Igros Moshe" EH 4:92)
One final note: Interestingly, animals which are raised in cramped conditions and fed chemicals are frequently found to be NOT Kosher, due to various problems and disease found in the organs of these animals.

Maybe carp, wolves and prairie dogs could use some lobbyists because Utah legislators heard a series of requests Thursday for money to help kill them, move them from unwanted sites or keep them away.
The Utah Lake Commission, for example, requested $3 million to help build a plant to process carp into fish meal. It says carp are an invasive species in the lake, and now account for 90 percent of the fish there. It says they decimated the ecosystem, making the lake's water muddy.
Reed Price, executive director of the commission, told the Natural Resources, Agriculture and Environmental Quality Appropriations Committee that removing 1 million carp a year for seven years would restore the lake to a more natural, clean state. The most affordable way, he said, is to build a fish meal plant and lease it to firms to catch and process the fish.
If that happens, Price said Utah Lake's "ecosystem would begin to recover. It would have pure water. Native vegetation would return, and the other fish would grow.... It will enhance the quality of life. It will entice business to come here as they see this fresh natural body of water so close to civilization."
The committee also heard a request for $300,000 to aid public and private efforts seeking to de-list the northern grey wolf as threatened, and to preempt listing Utah as a recovery area for the Mexican wolf. Supporters said that could help Utah keep down the number of wolves, and prevent hurting populations of other wildlife.
"The amount of money we would lose [from lost hunters and the businesses that serving them] would be devastating to Utah," said Rep. Mike McKell, R-Spanish Fork.
Garfield County Engineer Brian Bremner requested $35,000 to help relocate prairie dogs from private lands to a public reserve and dust them with medication that prevents bubonic plague. He said his county wants to help increase numbers of prairie dogs so they could be de-listed as threatened there.
Sen. Jim Dabakis, D-Salt Lake City, had one concern.
"Just to clarify, when you say, 'prairie dog relocation,' you're not talking about relocation to the spirit world, right?" Bremner said that was correct.

Fox Hosts Undisclosed Pro-Romney PAC Chair To Attack Obama
Fox turned to undisclosed Mitt Romney supporter Ken Blackwell to attack President Obama's efforts to gain the support of women voters in Ohio.
Fox has allowed many of its contributors [1] and guests [2] to advocate for Romney and Republican election efforts without disclosing their ties to the campaigns or affiliated groups.
In the latest example, Fox & Friends co-host Gretchen Carlson interviewed Blackwell, a former Republican Ohio Secretary of State. Blackwell claimed that the presidential race in Ohio had narrowed because Romney had closed "a tremendous gap that existed with women."
But Fox did not disclose that Blackwell is the chair [3] of the Tea Party Victory Fund, an organization that has spent more than $144,000 [4] to help Romney win the presidential election - even though Fox previously identified Blackwell as affiliated with another pro-Republican super PAC.
In August, Neil Cavuto hosted [5] Blackwell on his Fox show Your World to promote an offshoot [6] of the Tea Party Victory Fund, Defend Paul Ryan PAC. Blackwell described the organization's purpose as "making sure that the opposition and Obama forces don`t define, distort, and destroy Paul Ryan`s record and his chances of becoming, you know, Romney`s vice president."
During his Fox & Friends appearance, Blackwell dismissed the Republican Party's efforts at the state and federal level to restrict [7] women's reproductive health choices. He claimed that the Obama campaign "overplayed their hand in thinking that women were only concerned about abortion rights and contraception when many women in Ohio are worried about jobs and the education of their children."

text: My daughter is 13 and skating at Intermediate level this year. Her scores are all over the place, but generally she's been in the top half of her groups and has medaled and made it to final rounds. Her PC scores are weaker than technical, performance and interpretation lower than the others, skating skills highest. She's not a natural performer and is going through a bit of teen "I don't want to look goofy." It's a paradox, but although she loves to compete, she doesn't like getting "all emotional" in front of people. I know some of this is just time and maturity. However, she wants to work on PCS for the remainder of the season and try to more consistently place in top half of group. What advice, ideas, exercises, overall philosophy, etc. do you suggest for her? I need to help her tackle this on a practical end (Exercises and explanations for How to project more and How to "hear" the music better and connect to it.) and on the psychological end (e.g. "It may feel weird to project/emote at fist, but the more you do it, the better you'll get", etc.) I know dance class is a plus/must. Is there anything else she could try to hone this skill on ice or off ice. Thanks!

This is the gallery lamp with a dimmable LED light that is conveniently operated by remote control. The remote allows you to adjust the 50,000-hour rated LEDs to four levels, from a soft, white glow to bright, white illumination. The 24 LEDs highlight artwork without generating heat or ultraviolet rays (like fluorescent bulbs) that can damage paintings. Its cordless design enables set up anywhere without being restricted by the location of power outlets. The metal lamp has an antique brass finish, it mounts to a wall or picture frame with the included bracket, and tilts to enable optimal adjustment of the light-projection angle. Lamp requires four D batteries that provide over 70 hours of light; remote control requires a CR2025 battery. Light can also be controlled from the lamp.
"The LED light gave our painting a luminous quality that changed with each level. We are very pleased with the quality, the appearance and the performance. " - K.M., Tennessee

Exactly what we were looking for.
By Tutor Lady
from Sarasota, FL
We needed a lamp that would not require us to add an electrical outlet behind the picture and was remote controlled due the the height of the picture. We looked around sites a couple of years ago with no luck. We found some that were battery operated but not remote controlled and the reviews were not favorable. When we saw this one we jumped on it. It is perfect for the spot!

Not for California
By Still learning
from Santa Ana, CA
I bought 3 of these lights and they look great and work as documented. The problem I have is all have broken where the mounting tube attaches to the light. The light contains 4 D batteries which makes it heavy and unable to withstand a good eathquake jolt.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
Well made, operates easily, but badly designed.
By Lenny
from Ojai CA
Batteries are so heavy the light-weight advantages of the LEDs are outweighed by the heavyweight of the batteries, so it has to be attached to the wall not to the picture frame.
By Mike
from Long Lake near Grey Eagle, MN
Perfect alternative to a hard wired, switched accent light. Saved me a ton of time and so very happy to have discovered this alternative.
Misleading picture of good product
By Kathy
from Leawood, KS
This was to fit over a family portrait in a small hallway. It stuck out to far for the small space. I don't think this was adequately represented in the picture. Although it wasn't right for OUR use, it is still a good product.

Double Overtime Goal Lifts Wright State Over Green Bay, 2-1
GREEN BAY, Wis. (GreenBayPhoenix.com) – In a tense, physical Horizon League matchup, the Wright State men's soccer team netted a game-winning goal in the 107th minute to edge Green Bay, 2-1, on Saturday evening in Dayton.
The win improved Wright State to 4-8-1 overall and 2-3 in the Horizon, while the Phoenix fell to 7-5-3 overall and 2-2-1 in the conference.
With only a combined two shots over the opening 12 minutes for the two teams, Green Bay's Sam Krenzien (Wauwatosa, Wis.) turned up the offensive pressure with shots in the 19' and 21' that forced Wright State keeper Tyler Blackmer into save situations.
However, the Raiders netted the first goal of the match in the 30th minute as Austin Siefert headed home a feed from Jacob Stovall for a 1-0 advantage.
Green Bay found itself in a disadvantage in the closing minutes of the first half. Taurean Greenidge (Bridgetown, Barbados), who had received a yellow card in the 29th minute, received his second booking in the 41st minute resulting in a red card and ejection from the match, forcing the Phoenix to play a man down the remainder of the match.
Even with a man down in the final minutes the Phoenix remained close going into the break, owning a 2-0 advantage in corner kicks while trailing in shots, 8-6.
Green Bay picked up its offensive presence as the minutes ticked away in the second half, just missing an open net opportunity in the 63rd minute as WSU's Tyler Blackmer was drawn off his line, but Conner Sendobry's (Grover, Mo.) shot sailed just over the crossbar.
It was a set piece opportunity that brought the score even at 1-1 in the 77th minute. A tap from the corner and a cross in from the duo of Lawrence Talery (Coon Rapids, Minn.) and Audi Jepson (Green Bay, Wis.) found Krenzien in traffic, where he was able to send home the equalizer for his 10th goal of the season.
A close call for the Phoenix almost sealed the game in regulation, but Adam Nelson's (Mequon, Wis.) shot with one minute remaining hit the crossbar.
Starting the overtime sessions, Green Bay keeper Dary DeWalt (Milwaukee, Wis.) came up with two big saves on early attempts by the Raiders to keep the score even. Krenzien put two shots on in the closing minutes but they sailed high as the game moved towards the second overtime.
It was another close call for the Phoenix in the second OT that nearly gave them the win. With a long throw-in in front of the Wright State Bench, Brandon Hall (O'Fallon, Mo.) strong-armed the ball to the middle of the box. Trey Benhart (Lakeville, Minn.) had an open net opportunity, but the WSU defense stepped up to make the team save.
A long attempt by Wright State in the 107th minute when Bry Rockwell-Ashton sent one past DeWalt from well outside the box to snap a four game skid for the Raiders.
For the match, Green Bay led in corner kicks, 7-2. Wright State owned a narrow 18-17 advantage in shots, but the Phoenix saw several quality opportunities with nine of its 17 shots coming on goal. Krenzien finished with a game-high seven shots, including three on goal. DeWalt played the entirety, making seven saves.
Green Bay returns to action next Saturday in its final regular season match at Santaga Stadium, welcoming Oakland for senior day, recognizing Krenzien and Sabastian Xiong (Cottage Grove, Minn.) in a pregame ceremony.

It's a charge Arsène Wenger has heard before and it's been levelled at his squad again this week after an FA Cup defeat at Manchester United saw them exit a third competition inside a fortnight.
Critics claim that Wenger has never adequately replaced Tony Adams or Patrick Vieira, two natural leaders who were the Club's only captains from 1987 to 2005.
Arsenal have not picked up a trophy since Vieira left - although they have come mighty close - but Wenger does not see a connection between the six-year wait for silverware and the make-up of his squad.
The Frenchman knows that victories are the only answer to the doubters but, as he pointed out at his pre-match press conference, he has lost big games with the likes of Adams and Vieira in his team.
"I don't agree that [a lack of leadership has] been the problem. I just would like to remind you that we lost in the Champions League with Adams, Vieira, with everybody," said Wenger.
"In 2004 we lost to Man United in the FA Cup Semi-Final and we lost to Chelsea in the last minute of the Champions League but we still responded and won the championship that was at stake.
"No leader guarantees you that you will not lose a football game but what it is important now is how we respond with what we have in front of us.
"In football you can look back and learn from it, look back feel sorry for it or you can look forward and say it's worth going for it. We respond to that [criticism] by winning our games."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.
