March 8, 1976
UNITED STATES ex rel. JACK LOPINSON F-0276
RONALD MARKS, Superintendent, State Correctional Institution at Graterford
The opinion of the court was delivered by: LORD, III
In 1965, a jury found relator guilty of the murders of his wife, and business partner. His accomplice, Frank Phelan, pleaded guilty to both murders and was the principal witness against relator. The petition alleges ten grounds in support of relief. The United States Magistrate concluded that all ten grounds were without merit and recommended dismissal of the petition without hearing. As to eight of these,
after an independent review, we hereby adopt the report and recommendation of the United States Magistrate. With respect to the remaining grounds, we held an evidentiary hearing on October 6, 1975. After consideration of the evidence and arguments of counsel, we will dismiss the petition.
I. The Alleged Wiretaps
Relator asserted as one ground for relief that before trial he was denied tapes and/or transcripts of certain conversations between Frank Phelan and himself which had been obtained as the result of police wiretaps. At the hearing of October 6, 1975, there was absolutely no evidence presented which suggested the existence of any such wiretaps. The lone witness called by relator, Richard Sprague, Esquire, who was the prosecutor in the murder trial, categorically denied any knowledge of any interceptions or wiretaps involving relator and Frank Phelan. In the absence of any facts to support this ground, we conclude that it is meritless.
II. The Brady Argument.
In his sixth ground, relator states:
"The prosecutor refused to disclose to Petitioner evidence and reports in the prosecutor's possession, which were favorable to the defense, concerning the Commonwealth's chief witness, Frank Phelan, the alleged co-conspirator and accomplice of Petitioner. Despite Petitioner's requests, before and after Frank Phelan's testimony, the Trial Court refused to allow Petitioner to retain a psychiatrist and refused to direct the prosecutor to turn over to the defense psychiatric reports on Frank Phelan. The prosecutor also withheld all other information in his possession concerning Frank Phelan that was or may have been helpful to the defense."
In essence this ground may be distilled into two subparts. The first concerns the state court's refusal to appoint a psychiatrist to examine Frank Phelan. This ground was dealt with fully and fairly by the Pennsylvania Supreme Court, Commonwealth v. Lopinson, 427 Pa. 284, 305, 234 A.2d 552 (1967), and by the United States Magistrate in his report. We are satisfied that there was no constitutional error.
Secondly, embodied in the sixth ground is the question of whether the prosecution withheld information in its possession which would have been helpful to the relator. Since no evidence has been demonstrated to show that there was anything potentially helpful other than the psychiatric reports on Frank Phelan, the issue boils down to this: Were the refusals by the prosecutor and the trial court to make available to relator, upon his request, psychiatric reports concerning Frank Phelan a violation of the due process clause of the fourteenth amendment as explicated in Brady v. Maryland, 373 U.S. 83, 10 L. Ed. 2d 215, 83 S. Ct. 1194 (1963), and its progeny?
After a thorough review of the state court record we are convinced that relator has never given the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania a "fair opportunity to consider" this claim as required by 28 U.S.C. § 2254(b) (1970)
and Picard v. Connor, 404 U.S. 270, 276, 30 L. Ed. 2d 438, 92 S. Ct. 509 (1971).
In his petition and at oral argument, relator has directed us to certain portions of the state court record where he asserts this ground was raised. In his petition, relator refers to a number of motions made to the lower court before, during and after trial. These are of no help to relator since exhaustion requires presentation of the issue to the highest state court from which relief is available. See Williams v. Missouri Department of Corrections, 463 F.2d 993, 995 (8th Cir. 1972); Thompson v. Peyton, 406 F.2d 473, 474 (4th Cir. 1968). Similarly relator refers to his petition for a writ of certiorari to the United States Supreme Court. However, the mere inclusion in a petition for writ of certiorari of a ground not considered by the United States Supreme Court and never presented to the state supreme court does not satisfy the requirement of state court exhaustion.
Relator points to his appeal to the Pennsylvania Supreme Court and also his petition for re-argument. An analysis of the papers reveals quite clearly that the Brady argument being pursued here was not raised there. Point 8 in the Brief for Appellant before the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania is headed: "The Court erred in refusing to permit a defense psychiatrist to examine the witness Frank Phelan and in refusing to investigate the question of his competency." This is the closest relator comes to raising his Brady argument in his brief; our judgment is that it is insufficient.
In his petition for re-argument, relator quotes a portion of the Pennsylvania Supreme Court's opinion and then proceeds to demonstrate certain "misapprehensions" on the part of the court:
"1. Appellant's Counsel were prohibited by the Court from interviewing Dr. John G. Torney, the psychiatrist appointed by the Court to examine Phelan until March 1, 1965, when the trial was practically over and even at that time Dr. Torney was directed not to furnish ...

Practice Opportunities
An amateur radio net, or simply ham net, is an "on-the-air" gathering of amateur radio operators. Most nets convene on a regular schedule and specific frequency and are organized for a particular purpose, such as relaying messages, discussing a common topic of interest, communicating in severe weather, coping with emergencies, or simply gathering for conversation. (Wikipedia) — This type of net is not to be confused with Portland NET, the Neighborhood Emergency Team program!
Several Portland area groups do regular ARO Nets each week. Even if you don't feel ready to talk yet, at least listen in so that you can get comfortable with the way AROs communicate. Participating in on a Net can be intimidating, but AROs are a welcoming and forgiving group. This is the best way to learn to use your radio so that you'll be effective in an emergency situation.
The following are some Ham Nets you should consider participating in.
NET Net:
The Neighborhood Emergency Communications Training Net (NETnet) is a ham radio on-air gathering that discusses issues of interest to Portland NET members. Their primary audience is those with little or no experience on the air, but they often get check-ins from experienced hams and folks not associated with emergency communication. Anyone can listen, but you do need at least an amateur radio Technician License to transmit. (See "Learn more" button below for instructions on how non-hams can listen.)
If you are a NET ARO, prospective NET ARO, or a ham interested in emergency communication, the NETnet is a wonderful resource. Roughly 40 amateur radio operators are checking in to this net each week.
- WHEN: Sundays at 8:10pm on the K7RPT 147.040 MHz repeater (Sylvan Hills). That repeater has a positive 600kHz offset and a tone of 100.0 Hz — See "Learn more" button below for more information!
Note that there is also now a "practice" net just for new NET amateur radio operators. Instead of a directed net, like the NET net — with its spirited presentation but limited opportunity for discussion — the practice net is a place where new hams have a chance to meet, try out their radios, and talk with each other about topics of their choosing. The practice net will begin at 7:00 PM, just an hour before the regularly scheduled NET net, the K7NE 443.300 MHz repeater. This repeater has a positive 5 MHz offset and a tone 100.0 Hz
NETnet organizers are looking for feedback and suggestions on how to make the NETnet an even more effective training venue than it already is.

PARC Net:
The Portland Amateur Radio Club (PARC) is a great resource for AROs in the Portland area. They have monthly in-person meetings, as well as a weekly on-air net.
- WHEN: Mondays at 7pm PT on 146.84 MHz, negative 600 kHz offset, no tone
MC-ARES Net:
The Multnomah County Amateur Radio Emergency Service (MC-ARES) is a field organization of the American Radio Relay League (ARRL). Members are active in community service. They also have monthly in-person meetings, as well as a weekly on-air net.
- WHEN: Wednesdays at 7pm PT on the 146.84 repeater, negative 600 kHz offset, no tone
NTTN Net:
The Northwest Oregon Traffic and Training NET (NTTN) is handles formal written traffic into and out of the state of Oregon.
- WHEN: Daily at 18:05 (6:05 pm) PT on several Western Oregon Radio Club repeaters around the Portland area and around the states of Oregon and Washington

Rescuing Fresh Food to End Hunger in Australia
Ian Carson (OPM 42, 2012) and his wife, Simone, founded SecondBite, a nonprofit that feeds surplus food from growers and markets to more than a million needy Australians every month.
"The role of the food is not just feeding people. It also helps them get back into society," he says.
When Carson, former state president of the Liberal Party in Victoria and founder at PPB Advisory, started SecondBite 10 years ago, reusing food had just become legalized. Today, the nonprofit has 800 volunteers serving 200 agencies in even the most remote parts of the country. Last year, the Carsons were awarded Social Entrepreneur of the Year from the World Economic Forum's Schwab Foundation. SecondBite expects to feed 17,000,000 meals this year.
For Carson, the ability to adapt to clients' needs, especially on an enormous scale, is crucial. He points to SecondBite's partnership with Coles, one of Australia's largest supermarket chains, as evidence of success. The grocery giant makes weekly food donations from 550 of its stores and enjoys significant employee engagement.
"What we do with Coles is the best example in Australia—and probably the world—of shared value," Carson says. "People detest seeing food thrown away. Everyone gets that."

Arsenal Transfer News: Latest Buzz on GunnersAugust 15, 2012
The summer has been filled with plenty of intrigue for English Premier League juggernaut Arsenal.
The Gunners and manager Arsene Wenger have seen a flurry of activity on the transfer front—with several moves being made in an effort to bolster the club's quest to end its seven-year EPL title drought.
The summer additions of strikers Lukas Podolski and Oliver Giroud, plus last week's acquisition of former Malaga and Villareal midfielder Santi Cazorla have given the club a much needed boost coming off last season's third place finish in the EPL.
Wenger may not be done yet—with his sights currently set on 23-year-old Turkish midfielder Nuri Sahin, who is leaving Real Madrid per Goal.com.
However, the possibility of losing several key contributors could put a dent in the Emirates' enthusiasm—the most notable being team captain Robin van Persie, who has refused to sign an extension with the club per The Mirror.
Greg Stobart of Yahoo! Sports reports that the 29-year-old striker could be on his way to Old Trafford—with Manchester United aggressively pursuing a deal to land him.
Another striker whose future with the Gunners is in limbo is Nicklas Bendtner.
SkySports breaks down what may be holding up a deal to move 24-year-old Bendtner to AC Milan.
However, the possibility exists that Bendtner could still be used in an exchange to land AC Milan defenseman Phillipe Maxes, according to Thomas Atzenhoffer of The Examiner.
Meanwhile, forward Theo Walcott—who has spent the last six seasons with the Gunners—has emerged as a target for Inter Milan, per Simon Burnton of The Guardian.
While the potential losses are worth noting, the saga surrounding Van Persie and his uncertain future with the club is still the main problem that Wenger and the Gunners have to resolve soon.
Losing a 30-goal scorer—especially considering he may end up at a long-time rival club—would be a bitter pill to swallow.
But as B/R's Charlie Melman points out, if Arsenal gets its asking price for its coveted striker—the deal may end up with a favorable conclusion for both parties.
Despite potentially losing its leading scorer, the additions of two quality strikers and a world-class midfielder should be enough to offset the potential blow of losing Van Persie.

- 5 years ago
- Wedding: July 2014
I had a very emotional dress shopping experience….so I am worried I was too hasty in my decision.
See my grandmother and Aunt, who both live two states away, joined myself and my mother at a decent dress shop somewhere in the middle where we all live. It was so special having them both there. My aunt, who does not have any children of her own, is an ovarian cancer survivor, and my grandmother, who was a seamstress when she lived in Italy, is a breast cancer survivor.
I knew I wanted a "fit n flare" style but this was the first and only dress shopping experience I had and I felt as though it would be special to get a dress that all of us picked out together.
I love the Maggie Sottero Julia dress but am wondering if i missed out on other dresses just so I could make my grandmother and aunt happy!
ps. my grandmother made the veil that I am wearing…my mom wore it in her wedding 30 years ago. I think the julia dress matches it…..

Unbelievable that I am starting year 2013 without an organiser! And I kid you not, my life is pretty disorganised at the moment without a proper organiser. As the saying goes, "Failing to Plan is Planning to Fail". I seriously need that organiser to get my days in order! Currently, I make do with writing my tasks on pieces of post its.
The good thing out of this is it inspired me to try a black and white doodle to set a dark mood. I also varied the frames to make it more interesting.
Hope you like it as much as I do! 🙂

Before and After t-shirt design
Above is the original design I did on the t-shirt, and after looking at the bold prints from Buddhist Punk I decided to just use the stripes. Think I like the bold one better, for the time being anyway.

Buddhist Punk t-shirts
I've been looking at these bright, all over print t-shirts, and are impressed with how bold the designs are. It's made me want to rethink some of the stuff I've done. I'll have a play now and post some 'before' and 'after' designs to see which ones work best.

Snakes and Ladders
I did this vector drawing a couple of weeks ago, and I'm in the middle of another one which I'll post when I'm finished. I started with a wireframe from a 3D model I made and did lots of adding and subtracting of lines, and then added other elements, like the snakes heads and the pink pathways. All done in Illustrator. Original 3D wireframe was done in Cinema 4D.

More Fabric Swatches
I found this great book at the Powerhouse Museum called 'Naturally 70's Fabric'. All these images are from the book, but unfortunately it doesn't list the name of the fabric designers. It lists design houses: American Fabrics, Lois Epstein, Shirley Freidland, Knoll Textiles, Irene Sladewski, the Ursuline College Resource Library, and several anonymous sources. The authors of the book are Constance Korosec and Leslie Pina (Schiffer Publishing Ltd and Design, 2000).

Fabric Swatches
I've been looking at some amazing fabrics swatches lately. This lot are described as 'pictorial', because they don't use repeat patterns, but rather work as stand alone images on the fabric. They are from different places, mainly Scandinavia, with the exception of the Pucci bag:
1. Josef Frank 2. Emilio Pucci 3. Jenni Tuominen for Marimekko 4. Fujiwo Ishimoto for Marimekko.
Land of Crystals
Just in the middle of planning our trip North next week. We're going to spend a couple of days in Byron and Mullumbimby - which is a great spot for crystal shopping. I did this drawing in front of the telly last night without a mouse, so it's a bit messy - but I like the colours. I might make it into something more comprehensive later.

Hello Kitty Smiles
Hmmm, as I have time off looking after a new bub, I thought it would be a good time to document all the stuff I've been up to lately - mainly graphics, but no doubt other things too. I wasn't sure whether to put any personal things on-line, but because it's in the context of 'graphics' and 'character design', here's some photos of Lukas, showing how he has the same crescent shaped eyes as the characters from the Hello Kitty community. All the Hello Kitty images are from sanriotown.com, the Hello Kitty Online World.

Few things are more important to your overall well-being than sleep. Sleep impacts you physically, mentally, and emotionally. In fact, if you review your past a bit, chances are you'll find that a great number of the bad decisions you've made in the past came either late at night, or after a lack of quality sleep. Even though sleep is critical to our health, many of us ignore its importance and have too many nights when we either sleep fitfully or not at all. I have a quote by Victor Hugo (see above) pinned above my desk to serve as inspiration and a reminder. Launching off of that quote, here are a couple of things you can do to improve your sleep and thereby improve your life:
Stay Courageous (Have courage for the great sorrows of life…)
Courage is not a lack of fear. It's continuing to move your feet in the presence of fear. There will be moments in your life that will break your heart and cause you to fear, it's inevitable. Sorrows are a part of life. Even though you will experience fear, you do not have to allow that fear to control you. Courage is what happens when you continue to push forward in life when everything inside of you wants to quit or give up. Over time that sort of courage will actually cause our fear to diminish, so stay courageous!
Stay Patient (…and patience for the small ones…)
There are times when it feels that you will never get where you want to go. A thousand things seem to get in your way, slow you down, and cause you to doubt yourself. Obsessing over all of the little challenges in life (which don't always feel so little) will keep your brain in constant, futile motion, and will rob you of sleep. So, stay patient and stay the course. Keep doing what you believe in. Keep dreaming. When your mind is filled with hopes for tomorrow instead of dread, sleep comes more easily.
Work Hard (…and when you have laboriously…)
Nothing in life comes easy, so whatever you are looking to accomplish or achieve will likely require a great deal from you. Investing your blood, sweat, and tears in something you believe in is exhausting, but it's the sort of exhausting that leads to restful sleep. So work hard at whatever is in front of you, and when it comes time to rest, you'll be glad you did.
Stay in today (…accomplished your daily task…)
This may be the toughest of the four things mentioned so far. We all have daily tasks and responsibilities, and looking ahead to plan for the future is a not a bad thing. Living in the future, however, is another thing entirely. As much as we would like to, we cannot go back and change our past. Also, we cannot zoom ahead to next Thursday to see what problems might be lurking for us there. All that we can control is the moments that we have in the present. When we stay present to our current place and time, life feels more manageable. There is a clear place to begin, and when it's time for bed, a clear time to stop. As you crawl into bed, give yourself permission to sleep, reminding yourself that you can't crawl into tomorrow until tomorrow comes.
If life feels chaotic and your head feels cloudy, sleep is the first suspect to investigate. I hope these thoughts help you find peaceful sleep and much needed rest.

It was a mixed night for Team Tiger Schulmann as the team went 1-1 in title fights at Cage Fury Fighting Championships 52 with Nick Pace winning the vacant bantamweight title but Stephen Regman losing a challenge to lightweight champion Darrell Horcher in the main event. CFFC 52 took place October 31st at the Borgata Hotel Casino and Spa in Atlantic City, NJ with a pay-per-view webcast available at GoFightLive.
Darrell Horcher made a successful first defense of the lightweight belt he won in February but it cost the champion. Horcher it was later revealed broke his arm in the first round leading to two rounds of relatively little action. In the third a left hook from Horcher knocked down Stephen Regman with the follow-up punches on the ground sealing the victory before Horcher was taken to the hospital for the arm. Horcher emerges with his first successful defense of the CFFC belt, a record of 12-1, and five wins in a row. Regman now stands 5-2 with his five-fight win streak broken.
Nick Pace had better luck bringing Team Tiger Schulmann victory in the co-main event. When Ricky Bandejas shot in for a takedown midway through the first round Pace caught his neck and transitioned to a rear-naked choke for the submission win. Pace takes home the bantamweight title vacated by teammate Jimmy Rivera as his record climbs to 7-3, this being his first fight since leaving the UFC four years ago. For Bandejas this was the first loss of his pro MMA career as his record now stands 5-1.

In this episode I discuss "baptism in the Holy Spirit," which Charismatics, Pentecostals and some others claim is a special empowering by the Holy Spirit manifested through spiritual gifts, and is separate and distinct from the saving indwelling of the Holy Spirit experienced by all genuine Christians.

Then it was Vivi's turn.
They each made a wish on a heart and stuffed inside their animals.
On to the clothing and accessories. After all, they can't go home naked!!!
After that, we stopped off at A&W and everyone enjoyed some lunch.
Posted by The Wife O Riley at 6:53 PM
I am DEFINITELY calling you the next time I'M bored! Great bears!
How Cool! You girls are so pretty! I swear they are gonna be hearbreakers one day {{sigh}}.
Looks like a super fun day. We braved another long day at mom's pool with friends. It was sooo hot here it was well worth it!
not so hot here... it's friday and it's winter ~ probably a bit like your spring.
Awesome bears and your babes are beautiful!
Great fun... don't think we have anything like that here.
best wishes
Build a Bear is sooo cool. I give gift certificates to our little ones and they LOVE it! And, gosh, look how Emerson is growing.
The Blue Ridge Gal
Oh no...can't have the animals running around bear-nekkid!
sounds like a successful day! makes me long for the days when my boys were little....
looks like a fun time!! we've done that before when the kids were young (and last year when we were at Disneyland my hubby wanted to make one, LOL)
I love when the heart gets put in; I'm so sentimental. Also we had a sound put in my hubby's, I think it roars; amazing what they can do
yum with A&W!!
I love that place! We just took our little one to the one in Vegas a week ago. I'll be sharing my photos...when I can ever get a chance!! :o)
My Mam loves those build-a-bear places. I went there once. It's hard not to spend LOADS of money when you go there. Between me and my Mam I think we spent about £70 ($140)... Oops! ;)
No Becky, they are heartbreakers already!
You had a brainstorm taking them to the make their own bear place!
Whatcha gonna do today?! :)
I want you to be my mommy...
What a fun day! Your girls are absolutely gorgeous.
I love your pictures! What a great hot, summer day idea!
What a fun day for the kiddos!
Have a great weekend!
Forget kids... I wanna go build a bear! :)
omg..I seriously wish I'd had your address before you went there, I just saw a coupon that saved $5 on each bear built..
what a great day with your girls..wish my kids would hurry up and make me a mamaw!! lol
I love that little Chicago Cubs bear with glasses, lol.
I've got my own eye on that floppy moose they have!
You are the best mommy ever!
What a fun day; we've never built a bear, and now I fear Isabel is out of that phase. Do they have dinosaurs that you can build? 'Cause Gabe would probably like that.
Hope you're having a great time with your sis! I've been missing mine...
That's so cute! I have to ask, "Colin"? What up?

Sweetwater shuts down Snyder
SNYDER — Two early lost fumbles in the red zone kept Sweetwater from taking the lead over Snyder in Friday's non-district game for awhile.
However, the Tigers did not take advantage of their early chance. In fact, a penalty wiped out a long touchdown run of their own between the fumbles.
But the Mustangs finally scored with 2:23 left in the first quarter to break the ice and improved to 4-0 with a dominating 45-7 victory on Snyder's homecoming.
Sweetwater, which begins District 2-4A, D-II play this Friday at Pecos, led 25-0 at halftime en route to winning its third straight game over Snyder in the teams' rivalry that dates to 1925. Sweetwater has a 40-26-1 lead overall in the series.
With Ben McGehee as the head coach, there has been no obstacle too big to overcome yet as all four victories have been by at least 25 points. Chris Thompson threw four TD passes and ran for a fifth on Friday, while Snyder was scoreless until the Tigers — who had lost 40-0 to Seminole a week earlier — struck paydirt with 9 seconds left on a 7-yard run. And except for the early fumbles, it was a solid effort by the Mustangs on both sides of the ball.
Daniel Avila had scoring runs of 6 and 28 yards for Sweetwater, now 42-4 since the start of the 2014 season — and its last defeat to Snyder in 2013. After Avila's first TD put them on the board, Thompson had three scoring passes for the Mustangs in the second period Friday.
First, the senior QB hit on a 35-yard strike to Kobe Clark. That was followed by a 10-yard scoring throw to Clark to make it 19-0, and finally a 2-yarder to Kiante McCoy that came with just 41.3 seconds until halftime.
Thompson then kept the ball on a 4-yard TD run to make the score 32-0 less than two minutes after the start of the third quarter.
A Snyder drive ended with a fumble in Mustang territory, and Thompson threw his fourth TD pass — and third to Clark — for a 38-0 lead. The defense held the Tigers out of the end zone after getting to Sweetwater's 6, and the offense drove 94 yards in seven plays en route to their final score on a 28-yard Avila run that came with 3:27 left in the game.
"I thought that the kids handled themselves well," said McGehee, who thought the officials did a poor job of controlling a game that had several personal fouls called on both teams. "I thought the defense played their tails off."
The Mustangs will not return home until Oct. 6 when Sweetwater plays host to Lamesa.

Yes, that is what seems to be happening. I didn't mention that in my previous message though... It looks like testing has gone through enough upheaval to require a dist-upgrade instead of a normal upgrade. >I have no idea > what libnss-db does, so I'm afraid I can't give an helpful advice. IIRC, libnss is used for remote uid to name lookups. From what I understand, during the small ammount of time that the lib is uninstalled, you won't be able to create any new processes that use this lib and do lookups. It should be pretty safe on a workstation type machine. Where there isn't anything that needs to be working *during* the upgrade. Mike

So I decided to jump on the band wagon. Everyone I knew was watching this show, and my news feeds were filled with tons of Stranger Things reactions. So when I was packing to go to Paris, I thought it was the perfect time to watch this show. Boy was I wrong! So instead of packing like I planned, I was glued to my laptop for 8 hours. I only got up for food and the bathroom of course.
I don't want to spoil too much but I am warning you now, Spoilers Ahead!
So let me just pause for a minute to commend the cast, producers, directors, and everyone else apart of making this show. It was so good. I couldn't keep my eyes of the screen! One thing I loved about this show show was how they had kids as the main actors. Can I just say that all of them are so talented! I couldn't get over it.
Anyway, lets get back to the show. If you like suspenseful drama or sci-fi, then this is the show for you. It is dealing with creatures, magical powers, and other dimensions. It is definitely a show that is great to check out with Halloween just around the corner. With this show, there is always something new going on or revealing to keep you interested. When I finished the season, I believe I had more questions then answers.
My questions and predictions…
- What exactly happened to Eleven? Where did she go?
- Why does Hopper happen to know where Eleven might/ might not be ( why was he chose to know this information)?
- When is season 2, and how can they top season 1?
- I do believe Eleven is alive but I think she chose to stay hidden to protect those she cares about.
- I think the previous demogorgon is gone and I think Will is going to become the next demogorgon.
I still can't get over how much I loved this show. If there are any other theories or predictions, please let me know.

The Hellfire club and the roots of Satanism in the military are looked at extensively with Douglas Dietrich. From the motivations of the military for using the "super-science" of black magic, to the inception of dark arts in modern society in the military struggles of empires, Dietrich expounds on the strange fascination power has with witchcraft.
For eight years, Douglas Dietrich was a Research Librarian for the Department of Defense at El Presidio Real de San Francisco Military Base. There, along with his primary duty of document destruction, he alleges he was assigned to locate and access incredibly rare occult grimoires for the officially recognized Satanic Chaplain of the United States Army, Lieutenant Colonel Michael A. Aquino. Dietrich is a writer, speaker and activist.

Bath & Body Works, C.O. Bigelow Rose Salve, Chapped Lips, Chapstick, Dry Lips, eos, eos lip balm, Lip Balm, Rose Salve, Vaseline
I'm one of those people that always has to have something on my lips. Part of my makeup routine in the morning is applying some sort of lip moisturizer. After I eat breakfast I'll apply chap stick and then whichever lip combo I have chosen for the day. Throughout the day, I make sure to reapply chap stick or lip balm so my lips are protected from the elements. All year long I will always have a balm or chap stick which contains SPF. My goal is to prevent wrinkled and sun damaged lips as I get older!
Every night after I have washed and moisturized my face, I will apply either Vaseline or C.O. Bigelow Rose Salve to my lips. These are the most moisturizing and nourishing products that I have found to give my lips a deep treatment overnight as I sleep…
Both products are multipurpose which is great! I have used them for flaky dry patches of skin under my nose when I'm recovering from a cold. Also, if you ever have cracked dry skin around your cuticles, apply a little dab of either one of these! One of the best tricks that I have used Vaseline for is applying a little on the insides of leather shoes that rub and cause blisters on my feet. As we have all experienced, sometimes flats, heels or sandals will rub on the backs of our ankles or near our toes. This is a huge pain, literally, so I have found that if you apply a small gob of Vaseline on the area of the shoe that will rub, it prevents this from happening! Apply more as needed later in the day if required.
Vaseline is great since it has no scent and serves its purpose well when it comes to moisturization. The Rose Salve smells AMAZING and is honestly my favorite lip moisturizer to date! In the summer, I stick to the same lip maintenance routine yet in the colder months of fall and winter, I really appreciate the benefits of these two favorites all the more!

"If you want to make God laugh, tell him about your plans" — Woody Allen
To secure this Baldassini original artwork for your collection please call 860-638-0890 today. Or visit my website baldassinifineart.com to view other works in this series and other series.
I'm trying to set aside time now every week to make new Blog postings AND update my NEW Facebook Page — https://www.facebook.com/baldassinifineart. Please visit my Facebook page and "Like" and/or "Share"what you see.
This is the completed new work entitled "3 Peonies". It's an oil on panel work, 32 x 24 inches, with a beautiful modern dark frame which really sets if off nicely. I'm very pleased with the way this work came out, and I think I'm onto something very important (for me anyway). The addition of the Sennelier's Cool Grey neutral to my palette really made this one sing — the movement of light across the flowers is quite nice. Its my most luminous work to date.
I feel that with this new painting completed that its about time I seriously get down to the business of securing gallery representation. God knows that this is a daunting task, full of as much rejection as applying for employment, and I'm not even really sure how to proceed. I've researched quite a bit about contacting galleries for representation using mostly online resources and reaching out to other artists for advice and support. Some have stepped up and put me directly in touch with gallery owners, others are more guarded, and I can certainly understand that. All I know for sure is that I'm tired of collecting my own art and would rather it be in the homes of collectors and patrons. We'll see what happens.

I flew into the Philippines a few days ago, coming down over fires in the mountain that were either lava flows or farmers burning their fields. But why would the farmers burn their fields at 4 AM?
My flight had left Shanghai half an hour after midnight. Four hours later in Manila I settled in for a four hour wait for my connection to Cebu. The flight was an hour delayed. Another hour later we arrived in Cebu... more specifically on Mactan Island where centuries ago Magellan landed, pacified most of the tribes, and then was himself slaughtered by the ultra-ripped (according to the statue on the island) chieftain, Lapu Lapu. I hope this isn't a bad omen for my trip in the Philippines!
I have arrived in Cebu in the midst of their biggest yearly festival, the Sinulog Festival. The deal is that a religious icon called 'Saint Nino' is carried through the streets as part of a massive dancing, drumming, bugling procession from one cathedral (right down the street from my pension) to the docks, carried by sea, then to a stadium where there will be a further dance competition. I probably don't have a prayer of getting into the stadium, but I'm hoping to catch some of the dancing procession tomorrow. I also got up/was awoken today by the 4 AM mass at the cathedral down the street which was followed by a procession of the icon (it looks like an American Girls doll, actually) plus drums, bugles, dancers, and half the population of Mandaue town. Exciting!
A word on my pension: basically I'm sleeping on a cot in what is really a storage closet. Not as bad as it sounds, and probably one of the cheapest deals in town during the current festivals.
Comparisons between China and Philippines from first impressions: Filipinos are very friendly, much more laid back, relaxed. Generally easy to get along with, which is nice. Most of them also speak at least a bit of English which surprised me (but perhaps shouldn't, considering the country was occupied by the Americans for a while) but definitely makes getting around easier, and means that I've had some good conversations with taxi drivers, slum kids, fellow passengers on the jeepneys, etc. Definitely the country is less developed than China (which is saying something), but also in some ways more affected by western trends, particularly foods and stores. I've been recognizing hardware store brands from America, not to mention the barrage of places offering pizzas, hamburgers, mexican, etc, ranging from high-end restaurants through fast food to family run places. It's nice to be able to buy burgers, hotdogs, and pizzas on the cheap again (not overpriced relative to local food, as they are in China); although I'm spending most of my time enjoying the Philippino food thus far.
Jeepneys: Perhaps the oldest of these were originally jeeps left behind by the American forces... I have no idea, actually. But these are an awesome alternative to a formal bus system. Basically these low-slung jeeps that are all individually decorated and graffito'd by their owners fill in for the lack of city buses. So cheap, too! 10 pesos takes me from my location in a suburb, all the way to downtown Cebu. That's about 1.5 Yuan, or 20 cents US.

God help me, I am forever struggling with how dry my hair has been since the very day I discovered the excitement that dying my hair can give me.
A bit of background to my hair, I started dying my hair at home at the age of 17, 18. I bleached it, dyed it into all sorts of colour: purple, red, blonde, brown; dark blue; you name it I had it dyed. As if that hasn't killed my hair enough, a good few years ago I ventured into hair perm which looks amazingly good on me (I think) but as times went by, the conditions of my hair has certainly gone from worse to un resolveable.
|Look how curly my hair used to be!
So I stopped doing anything artificial to it or tried to keep it to a minimum. I even had it chopped off at least a few inches half a year after my wedding. I love having shorter hair and felt that it has improved the condition of my hair, especially those horrible split ends.
However, I haven't stopped taking care of my hair. Now that I have a healthy habit of going to the gym I made the most of the steam room/ sauna facilities that I have access to - slap on some hair treatment mask on my hair before stepping into either of these rooms.
One of the first things I had to get when I moved to Hong Kong which I didn't bring with me all the way from London was hair mask treatment. I went into Watson's (the equivalent of Boots or Superdrugs for those of you who are in the UK) and thought I would try something of its own brand (perhaps a bit of a mistake!) instead of trying out some Japanese brand products.
So I picked this one by Watson's called Natural's Olive Hair Mask. I used to use olive oil (yeah you heard me right, olive oil; those that you drizzle over salad!) to nourish my hair, it worked amazingly well and at the same time it saves up loads of money, so when I saw the word Olive I was led to assume that this might be a good product.
I have used up the whole tube, sadly it has done absolutely nothing to my hair. Seriously, I have wasted money (I can't recall how much I paid for this and couldn't find the information on Watson's website, it wasn't a lot but still), and wasted opportunities to treat my hair well. Sorry my short hair.
The texture of this hair mask is very creamy and smells of florally fragranced. It didn't leave my hair greasy but it didn't leave my hair feeling hydrated or moisturised at all either.
I think you can guess what I'm about to say, I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. My first attempt to try something of a drugstore brand in Hong Kong was a bit of a failure! However, since finished using this hair mask, I purchased something else and it's working rather well so far. I'll test it out for a bit longer and may feature it on here!
What's your secret to quench the thirst of your hair?

Re: The first MI Bodette's
In reply to:
The first MI Bodette's
I too have found Eli and Job in the 1820 Michigan State Census, and they are the earliest I can find so far.I do wonder if one of these men could be the father of my g.g. grandfather Frank Bodette, born in 1825 in Michigan (The years seem to indicate it is possible if not likely). I do not know Franks father's name, but know he was born in French Canada, as Frank listed it on several U.S. census reports.

Obama: I mean what I say, my Presidency will be a 1 term Proposition
It goes without saying that Obama meant what he said, during a 2009 interview, when he insisted he would be a one-term President if he failed to fix the economy within the first 3 years of his Presidency.
Or maybe he didn't mean it...., but rather he meant what he said later on when he insisted that not only had he had never said such a thing, but that he actually had asserted all along it would take more than one term, and probably more than one President to fix the economy.
Maybe he meant the latter, and not the former....
Truth be told, it might take several decades, and several Presidents, to fix the economy - because, well, because it always take FOREVER to heal an ailing economy - according to Obama's currently held views.......
Nevertheless, one thing is perfectly clear: If you exclude the myriad of times that Obama has either lied to the American people or misled them, he has always spoken the truth and said what he means.
Four more years!!!

The President is currently facing pressure to review his deportation policy after facing pressure from immigration advocates. Many immigration advocates are concerned about the rising number of deportations over the recent years, and this trend may also cause considerable worry amongst Illinois families who have relatives that could face deportation.
Although the President has taken steps to curb the number of deportations, his administration has overseen the removal of almost 2 million undocumented immigrants. This is many, many more deportations than those overseen by the most recent Bush Administration.
Some experts argue that the President could do more to stop deportations, citing the fact that as chief executive, he has the authority to decide when and how to enforce this country's immigration laws. Some have even suggested that, in theory, the President could just decline to deport immigrants at all.
However, others have noted that Congress sets a budget for deportations, and the President must use those federal funds for their intended purpose. For his part, the President points to the fact that many of his policies, such as "deferred action," have served to limit the number of immigrants deported when those people are not a threat to civil society or national security. The President has suggested that Congress will need to spearhead immigration reform at this juncture, but Congress has been unable to reach any kind of agreement.
Whether the President will choose to use his power as chief executive to act without the support of Congress remains to be seen. Until then, immigrants in Chicago, Illinois may want to consider consulting with an immigration attorney if they are facing thorny immigration issues or possible deportation. An attorney may be familiar with the best options available to immigrants and be able to come up with a good solution.

I started this study before we left Zambia, but never got back to it. Then I restarted it a few months ago. There were some thoughts that I wanted to put out there from it, so it has been sitting on my to write about pile since then. I suppose I better write about it or I will never get back to finishing the study!
As you will see, these are thoughts about being transformed-being clay in the Potter's hands. I think there are plenty of things for us to think about, being the clay, especially while the Potter isn't finished with us. (these are quotes from the study)
"Whenever the pot the potter was working on turned out badly, as sometimes happens when you are working with clay, the potter would simply start over and use the same clay to make another pot." Jeremiah 18:4, the Message
-He didn't discard the marred clay. He reclaimed it. He envisioned another way to shape it.
-Marred clay is imperfect. Something failed in the formation process. Like the clay, our lives can turn out differently than expected.
When our clay gets marred by sin, mistakes, and difficulties, God doesn't reject us. In fact, the Potter expects flaws to surface while making a vessel.
-The Potter uses the same clay. There is no refuse or thrown-away parts. All of the clay-the blemishes, fractures and failures-belong to the transformed pot.
-The Potter envisions the clay and wheel from a perspective that nobody else does.
-If the clay wobbles off center, as happens with pots and people, the Potter reforms it. If it collapses, he carefully reshapes it. p.88
-All pottery processes create a certain amount of waste clay….
…until it is fired, however all clay can be reclaimed to a working condition. Contrary to expectations, clay improves with age, and if left in a soft condition, increases its plasticity. –From THE COMPLETE POTTER by Steve Mattison
-We need to accept that spiritual transformation is circular, unpredictable, and sometimes feels like we're falling back instead of stepping forward. Its' messy, but God the Potter holds us. p.93
-Could it be that the Potter thrives on the chaos of the whirling wheel? Could it be that He loves messes? The Potter places his hands on slumping clay and turns it into a masterpiece. We bring the trouble. The Potter works the transformation. --Stephen W. Smith
I can, I NEED, to be reminded that I am not perfect, nor is my house perfect, nor are my kids…nor is my faith. I am an imperfect child of God being molded. He expects my flaws to come out as I am being worked-so He can redeem them into what HE wants me to be. Sometimes my "self" gets in the way and God needs to start over in an area in my life, rework it. I need to rest, I need to let myself relax into the boundaries that the Potter's hands hold me to and move where He leads, move where He guides. Not me, HIM. If only it were that easy. Let, let, let. Instead I do, do do.
"A {person} who fails well is greater than one who succeeds badly." Thomas Merton
This is our story-our story of walking out our faith journey. Our story of the whys, the processes, the transitions, the questions, the feelings, the joys, the triumphants, the frustrations. This is the true, honest, not always pretty record of our journey.
"THE PROCESS IS THE END. FOR IT IS THE PROCESS THAT IS GLORIFYING TO GOD." --Oswald Chambers
"This life therefore, is not godliness but the process of becoming godly, not health but getting well, not being but becoming, not rest but exercise. We are not now what we shall be, but we are on the way. The process is not yet finished, but it is actively going on. This is not the goal, but it is the right road. At present, everything does not gleam and sparkle, but everything is being cleansed." --Martin Luther
"This life therefore, is not godliness but the process of becoming godly, not health but getting well, not being but becoming, not rest but exercise.

Constantin-Felix von Maltzahn
Constantin-Felix von Maltzahn, PhD, Amsterdam Fashion Institute
When in 2008 Bruno Latour wrote his text 'A Cautious Prometheus: A Few Steps Toward a Philosophy of Design' he did not actually have design education in mind. Similarly, when I studied comparative philosophy many years ago I did not imagine ending up in fashion education. Anecdotal though these examples may seem, there is a perplexing correlation between the two. Interestingly enough, whenever exposed to design education the common assumption seems to be that the content of fashion courses should focus on knowledge transfer of readily applicable, hands-on ideas that students can put into practice in other parts of the curriculum. It is consumable, but not always consummate, knowledge, thereby leaving out of consideration many of the finer notes of cultural as well as socio-economic circumstance that fashion as a profession is inextricably enmeshed with. In some way, this is of course a good thing, because it equips future generations of designers and managers with the skill set needed to create work of a certain professional standard. At the same time, it is debatable how meaningful a body of work can be that is informed by comparatively monolithic and by no means exhaustive didactic structures.
Fashion is by default a discursive practice. And yet, a lot of times that discourse does not, or only partially, filter into the educational system. Fashion, as "applied art" (whatever that may mean) and as an engine of economic growth, can, and sometimes does, reflect contemporary culture; sometimes it cross-pollinates with other disciplines; and sometimes it gets out of its own way.
The question this paper seeks to address is how broad fashion education should be – or how broad it actually can be. While we may very well want to include a more comprehensive theoretical framework as underpinning, it is debatable whether this is conducive to the overarching educational goal. It is a tightrope act between equipping students with what is needed and, to some extent, also with what is (seemingly) not needed, at least not in the sense of directly informing the work of becoming practitioners. Fastening on these premises, this presentation seeks to raise the following (and quite a few more) questions:
• To what extent should a curriculum include concepts and discussions that do not directly affect students' day-to-day reality as future professionals?
• In what way could a curriculum benefit from stimuli that are not readily identifiable as design- or management-driven?
• Where does a practice-based skill set end and where does abstract thinking begin?
• How could we design a curriculum that balances both these forces, thereby producing a more comprehensive kind of knowledge (transfer), without leaving out of consideration the practical considerations required by the industry?
• How can we engage students in a meaningful dialogue and what does that mean for the limits of education?
Constantin-Felix von Maltzahn is a research fellow and assistant professor of consumer behaviour at the Amsterdam Fashion Institute.
A graduate of the universities of Maastricht and Amsterdam, his doctoral research was in the area of co-creation dynamics and co-evolution between brands and consumers in the Dutch fashion industry.
Current research interests include consumer behaviour in fashion; business models of luxury firms; longevity and relevance of recently established "intermediate" luxury contexts; and critical marketing theory.

A few years ago I created a Yahoo! e-mail address for my son – well before he was old enough to use one – just to capture the address. At the time, Yahoo! would not allow the account to be created with an age under 13, so I used my own birthday to get past that hurdle. And now, my son is old enough to use e-mail.
For years, the account has been untouched – never used – and completely locked down (or as locked down as Yahoo! enables it to be).
Now that he's old enough to use e-mail with his school friends, I checked the account – and it's full of SPAM that goes like this
How are you doing,
I am Suk – naughty beauty with hundreds of mad ideas in a head!
What I'm searching for here? You know, I do not know it yet! Probably just breathtaking dialogue with men, maybe flirting, maybe having sex or maybe some kind of serious relations if we r lucky. Who knows, maybe you are exactly what I need?!
then, bye, write me back, my sweet boy. I'll wait! Kissing
Hey dear!))
It is Shanta.
I am pretty and smart woman and I wanna offer you to to go to a date with me, what do you think about it?)
I saw your shots and I really liked them, so I thought that it'd be a good idea to write to u! There will be no doubts left when you'll see my shots!)
I am expecting to get your answer soon! Maybe we could go somewhere for a drink later, who knows)) Maybe I'd invite u to have a drink at my flat;)
Oh boy. EXACTLY the kind of thing that I DON'T want in my kid's e-mail.
So I check Yahoo!'s site and they now have a feature called Yahoo! Family Accounts – specifically for kids under 13 (though to be sure, I wouldn't want a 13 year old to receive those messages either).
To link my son's account to my own, his has to have an age under 13 yrs. BUT IT CAN'T BE CHANGED. Turns out, Yahoo! won't let one change the birthday of an established account to one under 13 years old.
So I called Yahoo! (I was amazed that they have phone support. Does Google or Microsoft?)
The rep acknowledged that to link my son's account to mine under the Yahoo! Family Account structure, the account has to be one with a birthday of someone under 13 years old. He also confirmed that one cannot change the birthday associated with the account from older than to younger than 13. Lastly, he told me there was no way to associate the accounts and suggested I just create a new one (logical, but totally insufficient and defeating the whole purpose of snaring the account e-mail address of choice years ago).
OK – I get it. Safeguards, timing of creating accounts, policies to protect Yahoo! and users make it impossible to link the accounts.
What about the root problem? The spam?
Here's what he told me:
- "Change your password."I politely explained to him that it is not necessary for a spammer to know account passwords to send e-mail to those accounts and that no matter how secure and how often changed my password might be, Yahoo! would continue to receive mail sent to the account. E-mail accounts are designed to receive e-mail. Spammers just buy or create lists of target e-mail accounts. They do not break into those accounts to deposit messages – they simply use their own e-mail engines to send the messages.
- "OK. Then you need to run anti-virus software. You have a virus."Now, still polite but having lost all respect for the "support desk," I explained that spam is received via the Internet over web-mail. It is not created by a virus on my machine. A spammer creates the message, and sends it over the Internet to Yahoo! which proudly delivers it to any browser, on any device, customers choose.
- "So you need to block the sender's address."Close!! But no cigar. It's not that I need to do the blocking – it's that Yahoo! needs to do the blocking. Spammers use sophisticated algorithms to rotate and mutate their sending signatures to get past spam engines. It's the job of spam engines to outmaneuver the mutations and successively, successfully, stay ahead of the spammers.I remember when my wife worked for Brightmail, the spam engine company that was acquired by Symantec on May 19, 2004 for $370 million in cash. As an industry insider, she knew that Yahoo! had a DIY spam engine that basically sucked. Yahoo! spam was one of the main reasons we switched to Gmail.He didn't get it.
When asked if there was anything else he could help me with, I told him he could help himself as a Yahoo! employee (or contract employee) by sending my regards to Marrisa noting that Yahoo!'s spam engine still sucks and that at least this family will stick to Gmail and Outlook.com (see my post on Outlook.com e-mail – I'm still happy with it, and still wish it supported IMAP!).
