Grandpa Lampshade's Thoughts of the Day returns with a special morning coffee with the Lampshade edition. That's right, we haven't had one of these shows in a while so it's time to cozy up with a hot cup of coffee and sit around the table with Grandpa Lampshade as we talk about all the different things we're thinking about.
Grandpa has undertaken the Daily Stormer Paleo Challenge and it is indeed a challenge. You find your entire outlook on food and eating will be changed by this major shift in your eating habits. Grandpa fills us in on week one of this endeavour, the good the bad and the ugly.
Next up Grandpa discusses debt repayment and filing for bankruptcy in the context of an immoral usury system. The Jew has conditioned us that it is a moral failing if they are not paid back their pound of flesh in exchange for them being made richer at our expense. While some love to quote the Bible passage of the wicked borrowing and not repaying, they seem to always ignore the fact that usury was completely forbidden in the first place. Usury is a system of enslavement for keeping us chained down and under control. This is one of the primary reasons why the National Socialists outlawed it.
Speaking of National Socialism, Grandpa discusses the frustration of dealing with people who, though in other areas may be well studied, show a complete lack of understanding when it comes to NS. So often we see it conflated with welfare socialism like the modern European socialism and aside from the fact that both contain the word "socialism" in their names, this is really where all the similarities stop. Grandpa once again discusses some of the differences and also why it is that international finance and Jews in particular must constantly demonize it.
Next up Grandpa talks about another frustration, this time the one that can easily set in when you are trying to save a people who do not want to be saved. It seems our people would rather cease to exist as long as they don't get called names by Jews. This can be a daunting task to deal with on a day to day basis as burn out and frustration can easily set in. Grandpa advises that when this sets in, take a step back and have a look at the big picture. Our people have been stripped of any sense of racial pride, any sense of history and any sense of having a culture that matters. Even though it is White people who have built modern civilization (yes dey kangz didn't build it out of cotton) our people are told 24/7 that all things that are wrong in our world are our fault. The Jew admonishes us that we should admire the noble Black man or hang our heads in shame that the only reason the Negro race is a failure is because of us. These are of course lies, but they are lies that our people are subjected to constantly. Freeing yourself of these lies and then trying to free our people of them is all a part of this struggle called life.
In the next segment, Grandpa Lampshade takes a moment to discuss the mess that is the state of the modern Christian Church. Of course as you all know, GPL is not one to preach at you or preach to you, he doesn't care if you're saved or not because even though he is a Christian he is not of the modern cucked out variety. Grandpa discusses this sensitive topic in the context of historical fact rather than trying to preach to those of us who aren't Christians that we need to change our views. The fact of the matter is that one of the pillars that holds a people and a society together is religion. The Moslems are coming against us with a fanatical belief in a religion that serves as the glue that bonds their racial identity together. If we do not recognize the role that religion plays in supporting a society and supporting a people, we will be continually fighting an uphill battle.
The listeners questions and comments segment is on fire this week and first up we have one from Marcus Power on Twitter who asks about the problem of porn and how it is effecting our people. GPL has the down low on the download when it comes to porn in the broader context of the other things that work together with it to make it so appealing in today's society and how these things are all working against our people to tear us down and make us weaker. Porn is a classic example of the old stand by saying, if it's good for the Jews, it's bad for everyone else.
Next up is another one from Twitter, Brandon Frazee who has recently joined the audience of Grandpa Lampshade's Thoughts of the Day. Brandon enjoys the show and Grandpa encourages each and every one of you to pass on a note of appreciation to those in the movement to let them know that you enjoy what they are doing. As someone who does this work, Grandpa can assure you that it means a lot. Brandon's question/comment has to do with the tragic situation that our racial kin in South Africa are currently in. Grandpa takes this great question as an opportunity to look at our situation in a broader context. South Africa for white people is the canary in the coal mine, so as to speak as it shows you what will happen to us if we fail in this fight. It's not a mystery, just look at South Africa to see the dark future that awaits each and every one of us in our own countries should we fail at the task that is before us.
The final question/comment has us moving over to the Daily Stormer comments section where Greenbean asks what other movements like the Trump campaign can we get in front of, to spread out message. Grandpa Lampshade doesn't have a looking glass as to what the future might hold but he can tell you this: success comes in not watering down our message. We have held our message and not wavered throughout this entire operation and have found that success lies in our extreme rhetoric. The overton window is real and we have pushed it rightwards to the point that normies are now openly discussing topics that would have been completely off-limits for them just a few short years ago. Success will come no matter what we do, by staying on message and taking it to these kikes.
Great times, hot coffee and thought filled topics await you on Grandpa Lampshade's Thoughts of the Day.

They gave wine lovers an identity and one of them gave Italy its name. Beyond that, not much is known about the Oenotrians, an ancient society that dwelled in the Calabrian hills and pastures prior to Hellenization.
The Oenotrians first came to the lower peninsula as early as the 11th Century BC, by way of the Pelopennese. They are considered "pelasgian" people, a catch-all term to describe those who came from Greece before it was, well, Greece. Led by Oenotrus, the Oenotrians cultivated the land and built towns from Campania to Calabria. Unlike the Etruscans, not much physical evidence seems to exist that documents the times of the Oenotrians. (An archaelogical dig at Timone della Motta on a Calabrian hill has offered some possibilities, including an 8th Century BC Oenotrian temple). We have to rely instead on the histories of men like Sophocles, and Antiochus of Syracuse, both of whom wrote of the Oenotrians in the 5th century BC. Another historian, Dionysius of Halicarnassus, claims that the Oenotrians left Arcadia for Italy "seventeen generations before the Trojan expedition," to put their arrival in some kind of perspective.
The Oenotrians were famous for their vineyards, and thus were given their names by Hellenic Greek colonizers centuries later based on the Greek term for wine (oinos). Today we refer to a wine lover as an oenophile.
Their contribution to the modern language didn't end there. Eventually there was an Oenotrian king named Italus, and from his name was derived the term Italy to describe the region and of course the nation as it stands today.
According to Antiochus, Italus' successor Morges later partitioned the kingdom into three parts: His own domain (the Morgetes), the Italians, and a kingdom for his friend Sicelus – the Sicels.
How much of this is accurate is anyone's guess. After all, it was claimed that Oenotrus was a descendant (son, perhaps) of Lycaon, King of Arcadia who in Greek myth served Zeus his own dismembered son for dinner to test his omniscience. In our sense of history, the Oenotrians, ancient inhabitants of Calabria, straddle the border between history and legend. Next time you open a bottle of wine, drink to their legacy.

Pedicab drivers wont roll over in face of new law
By Jefferson Siegel
The citys 500 pedicab owners and operators are gearing up for the long haul. Theyre readying for a protracted battle with the city against a new law that places severe restrictions on their livelihood.
Last Wednesday, several dozen of the pedal-powered cabbies wended their way down traffic-clogged Broadway from Columbus Circle to City Hall to call attention to their plight.
Im 30 years old and Im wearing the same size I was wearing in high school, said Jesse White as he biked his taxi trike past Chambers St. A driver for three years, White may be in great physical shape but hes unhappy with the political turn of events. The demand for pedicabs has risen exponentially, he said as pedicabbies parked along Broadway and filed into City Halls plaza.
After the City Council passed a law capping the number of bicycle taxis, Mayor Bloomberg was lobbied by pedicab drivers who said they would lose their jobs. Bloomberg ultimately vetoed the bill, saying the market should dictate limits. The Council overrode his veto, leaving Public Law 19 scheduled to go into effect on Sept. 20.
Were all basically distraught because the nature of the industry is about to change, said Peter Meitzler, president of the NYC Pedicab Owners Association. Meitzlers group takes issue with several provisions of the new law, including restricting the transfer of pedicab business licenses, in effect, making a pedicab business worthless should the owner wish to sell.
The law cuts the number of pedicabs by a third, from 500 to 325; bans them from bike lanes and bans their use of an electric-assist motor the size of a hair dryer. Police can also ban the bike taxis operation from any area determined to be congested, which covers most of Midtown.
The law also forbids pedicabs from traveling on bridges, meaning operators living in the outer boroughs would face the expense of hiring a truck to transport their wheels into and out of Manhattan.
Doug Korman, co-founder of Green Transporters Association, was wearing a cap with the number 326 on it.
Im number 326, he said as drivers stood behind him on the steps. Three hundred and twenty-five for a city of 8 million is unfair and un-American.
Many at the rally criticized Council Speaker Christine Quinn for enabling the law and leading a majority to quash the mayors veto. They claim a close friend and neighbor of the speaker, taxi industry lobbyist Emily Giske, was instrumental in urging Quinn to limit the growth of the pedicab industry.
Listening to the speeches but unnoticed by the drivers was Stu Loeser, chief spokesperson for Mayor Michael Bloomberg.
The mayor made his position on the pedicab bill clear when he vetoed it, Loeser said.
Others in the Council also took issue with the law. When first proposed, the vote was 37 for the law, 6 against and 2 abstaining. Councilmember Rosie Mendez voted against the bill.
I had issues with the cap, Mendez said as she walked into City Hall for a caucus. We have a vital industry, so all the pedicabs should have been grandfathered in.
Councilmember Alan Gerson had told the Department of Consumer Affairs, which will grant and regulate licenses, that anyone who filed taxes as a pedicab driver should be given priority for a license. Peter Pastor, Gersons legislative director, said the only hope for pedicab drivers now was for a sunset provision in the law. In a year or two, he thought, the cap could then be increased.
Next week, D.C.A. will hold a lottery to distribute pedicab permits.
After the rally, George Bliss, a founder of the New York City pedicab movement, stood by his green pedicab on Broadway. Bliss suggested that as the police, firefighters and sanitation workers are known respectively as New Yorks Finest, Bravest and Strongest, the citys pedicab drivers are New Yorks Greenest.
Politicians cant keep green transportation from happening, he declared.

ACI Engagement with the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO)
ACI has steadily increased its contact with ICAO over the years, culminating in the move from Geneva to Montreal in 2011 which has allowed for much broader and deeper engagement between ACI staff, State Representatives and the ICAO Secretariat. For example, we have been able to place our subject matter expert on the Air Navigation Commission as an observer which allows the airport sector early input into proposed technical recommendations that have direct consequences for airport design and operation.
Structure and Governance of ICAO
ICAO is a United Nations Specialized Agency responsible for developing and applying Standards and Recommended Practices and developing global policy guidance for international civil aviation. ACI works closely with ICAO and other stakeholders to ensure that airports' interests are taken into account as policy is developed. ICAO policies have direct safety, security, environmental and economic impacts on airports' business.
ICAO was established as a specialized agency of the United Nations under the 1944 Convention on International Civil Aviation, otherwise known as the "Chicago Convention". Its professional employees are international civil servants and many of its processes are required to follow the norms of the United Nations. However, as a specialized agency it does have considerable flexibility in the way it governs itself and how it operates in practice. Currently, 192 States are members.
It is not a large organization by UN standards, with an approximately $100 million annual budget and 650 permanent staff. It has its Headquarters in Montreal with Regional Offices, each with a Regional Director, in Bangkok, Cairo, Dakar, Lima, Mexico, Nairobi and Paris. It has also now opened a Regional Sub Office in Beijing, the first of its kind.
The highest level of governance is the Assembly of all 192 States which meets every three years. The Assembly sets the budget for the ensuing three years, and hence the levels of assessments paid by States; elects the ICAO Council; and passes Assembly Resolutions which set global aviation policy.
The ICAO Council is responsible for day to day governance and other specific tasks which are specified in the Convention. It is comprised of 36 States, ensuring equitable geographic representation, and meets in three 8-10 week Sessions each year. The Council elects a President, which is a salaried position, for a term of three years; the President is limited to two terms. The current President is Dr Olumuyiwa Benard Aliu from Nigeria whose term started on 1 January 2014 and following his re-election will conclude on 31 December 2019.
The Council's work is carried out through Committees comprising members of Council. The Committees and their current Chairs are:
- Air Transport - Samuel Campbell Lucas (Australia)
- Joint Support - Ali Riza Çolak (Turkey)
- Finance - Víctor M. Aguado (Spain)
- Unlawful Interference - Martial Pagé (Canada)
- Technical Cooperation - Raoul Maixent Ondzotto (Congo)
- Human Resources - Ms. Mercy Beatrice Awori (Kenya)
- Implementation and Strategy Planning Group - Ms Aysha Alhameli (UAE).
The Air Navigation Commission (ANC) is comprised of 19 independent Commissioners elected by Council. Its duties are to provide technical advice to the Council as specified in the Convention. The President of the ANC is elected by the Council for a one-year term and is not salaried. The current President of the ANC is Claude Hurley from Canada whose term started on 1 January 2018.
Meeting Structure
ICAO relies heavily on advice from the States and has a categorization of meetings depending on the expected representation and the relationship with the Council:
Category 1 – Assembly Sessions and Diplomatic Conferences:
These are high-level meeting which may include Ministers and Directors General of Civil Aviation. Decisions are made at these meetings which may apply directly to States and/ or instruct the Council on its future actions.
Category 2 – Divisional Meetings, Regional Air Navigation Meetings, and Conferences:
These are formal meetings, usually attended by Directors General of Civil Aviation, with an output (report, conclusions and/or recommendations) that presents policy recommendations to the Council.
Category 3 – Panels, Committees and Groups:
These are meetings of a technical group of States and industry experts that presents technical recommendations to the Council, Air Navigation Commission or a Standing Committee of the Council.
Category 4 – Seminars and Symposia:
These are meetings open to all which serve to disseminate and exchange information and do not result in any formal recommendations or conclusions. A symposium consists of a large group of people often targeting a specific audience; a seminar is smaller in scale and scope providing a detailed discussion on one subject, often regional in scope, with some interactivity between invited speakers and participants.
The Secretary General is elected and appointed by the Council for three years (also with a two-term limit). This individual is the Chief Executive Officer of the Organization responsible for delivering the policy agreed by the Council, and for providing advice to the Council on emerging policy development. The current Secretary General is Fang Liu from China and her mandate runs until 31 July 2021.
The Secretary General manages the work of the organization through the Bureau Directors: Air Navigation – Steve Creamer (USA); Air Transport – Boubacar Djibo (Niger); Administration and Services – Vincent Smith (UK); Legal – Jiefang HUANG (China); and Technical Cooperation – Jorge Vargas Araya (Costa Rica). The Regional Offices report to the Secretary General and are primarily engaged in implementation and assistance to States in the Region.
ICAO Strategic Objectives
ICAO has five Strategic Objectives effective 1 January 2014: Safety; Air Navigation Capacity and Efficiency; Security and Facilitation; Economic Development of Air Transport; and Environmental Protection.

More Happier Ending in the Movie Than in the Novel
- Robert J.
- 7/4/18
Apparently, the movie's script was changed to include a happier ending for the Hawke character (i.e., while recovering from pneumonia and being comforted by Jeanne, he asks her to marry him). Given all these two went through in the movie, it was nice to see them have a chance to finally be together, after realizing they loved each other.The Hawke character in Herman Wouk's novel (loosely based on the life of Thomas Wolfe) had a more tragic ending, according to several written accounts about the book's storyline.
youngblood hawke
- kevin sellers
- 9/29/17
There's a scene in this movie, one of the few good ones, where a literary critic (well played by the great 50s/60s character actor, Edward Andrews) pans Hawke's latest best seller as overblown and padded and only interested in making money. That's basically this film. Give it a C.
- dennis reardon
- 9/17/17
This movie quite good back in 1964, and sustainably good today, can withstand a remake. Imagine what New York in the 60's would look like today in color given CGI strengths. A new slate of actors could also breath heat into this movie's love scenes constrained by 1960's mores and morals. Imagine Hawke in today's world where he casts a spell on everyone he meets, including same sex. Interesting!!
YoungBLOOD needs a transfusion
- Joella Lyndon
- 7/21/14
I have yet to find a negative review of this film. But here it goes . . . The character of Youngblood Hawke doesn't seem to have any understanding that irresponsible actions can have devastating effects on those connected to him. For example his open affair with Mrs. Winter continued after her husband learns of their infidelity, her son, Paul Jr.'s discovery of them necking on his living room sofa, and last but not least Youngblood Hawke's own mother discovered Mrs. Winter with her son in his bed. I was especially appalled at Youngblood Hawke's apathetic reaction to Paul Jr.'s lament, after discovering Hawke's intimacy with his mother; " . . . I wish you were my cousin . . . ". Franciscus as Youngblood Hawke failed in his attempts to show any remorse or shame over the fact this boy saw him as a hero while he is unapologetically fornicating with Paul Jr.'s mother. James Franciscus was wooden, robotic and practically emotionless as Youngblood Hawke > Ivy League pretentiousness doing Southern homeboy author, really? I had no interest in the outcome of the sleazy Youngblood Hawke. I wanted him to receive hard core punishment socially and professionally for his lack of morality in every area of his life. Then there's the pace of the film. I.E. > F.F. to the end of the film: while at Jeanne Green's (Suzanne Pleshette) apartment Mrs. Winter calls Hawke to tell him her son Paul Jr. committed suicide at his Military boarding school. Hawke breaks down and cries in Jeanne's arms > immediately he's stoking a fire in a log cabin back in the hills of Kentucky, amiably talking with friends. Immediately Hawke is discovered unconscience, under a bridge in the frozen river with manuscripts strewn all around him. Immediately he's clearly on death's door in isolation, sweating, feverish, hallucinating. Within minutes he's talking with Mrs. Winter, dumping her and kissing & hugging Jeanne asking her to marry him. Bizarre
Missed the movie today!!!

I read the book "Youngblood Hawke" when I was in Junior High School and carried the hardcover book around like it was a baby. Since then, I have bought a copy of this book every time I have seen it and forced my friends to read it. I do remember seeing the movie one night, very late after I had read the book and have been praying ever since to see it again, and placed request to see it on the TCM website. Imagine my absolute joy and astonishment when I finally saw that TCM was playing this film. Having read the book at least six time, now that I am grown and have finally seen the film again, I have to say that I am a bit annoyed at some of the changes made for the screenplay - I do dislike losing so much of the character development to create a "happy ending" but I do understand that this is sometimes necessary. Anyway, I still love the film and love virtually everything written by Herman Wouk. Thank you TCM for showing this film. Now, please put it on DVD so I can finally erase it from my PVR machine....

AWESOME romantic scene between Genevive Page's "Frieda Winter" and James Franciscus' "Youngblood Hawke" within the first 30 minutes. Viewers know that Hawke and Frieda were attracted to each other at the Christmas Party noting the publishing of Hawke's first book. Under the guise of contributing material to the research of Hawke's next book, Frieda takes Hawke to her empty-nest home, absent of an out-of-town husband and children. After some chat and a meal, Frieda pulls out and reviews one of those resource items in her library. Hawke is so enchanted with her, he boldly moves in and kisses her. Her response to his initial advances is what I found rather unique about this movie. She lifts herself up from the pillows she was sitting on, ponders her next move (as the camera gives a close-up of her smile), then slowly and gracefully proceeds to turn out two lighted lamps in the room, remove a set of ear rings and place them behind a sofa, and slowly turns to longingly gaze at Hawke while she rests on the sofa. Hawke approaches her, but is still at a distance. Then...THE moment. Frieda fully extends both of her arms towards Hawke, clearly inviting him to come to her and continue what he started. WOW! Magical. She prepared the room for romance, then she prepared herself for more. The scene fades away as Frieda and Hawke engage in a make-out session on the sofa. PLAY IT AGAIN, TCM !!!
Please play it again

One of the classics. Thanks to TCM for airing this rarely seen masterpiece. Lots of fond memories, especially of the late actress Suzanne Pleshette, and Genevive Page, who both gave stellar performances. Hollywood doesn't make romantic scenes today as good as those between these lovely ladies' characters (notably Page's "Frieda Winter") and James Franciscus' "Youngblood Hawke." (I'm reminded of another classic -- Myrna Loy and Paul Newman in "From the Terrace.") The movie's synopsis was right...Hawke truly did "cast a spell" over these stunning women. Page's (Frieda Winter's) elegance and beauty will forever be remembered, and in my opinion, Pleshette is a Hollywood icon. Great stuff...definitely FIVE STARS!
A Chance to See Youngblood Hawke

Thank you so much TCM for airing 'Youngblood Hawke'. Since it is not available on DVD, it is virtually impossible to see. Anything based on a Herman Wouk novel is worth our time. This one has an excellent cast including the frequently underrated Suzanne Pleshette. I just hope it is as good as I remember.

Happy to hear it. Herman Wouk's book is terrific- I'm happy to see the movie will be shown as it has all but disappeared. Great cast, great story. thank you.

Delmer Daves Fine FIlm
- David Atkins
- 8/5/11
Delmer Daves made 4 smash hits at WB all in a row starring Troy Donahue: A Summer Place, Parrish,Susan Slade and the ever romantic Rome Adventure. On this film Warren Beatty was initially cast,but refused to sign his contract so Jack Warner in a rage fired Beatty and cast James Fransiscus who does a fine job as Youngblood Hawke. The film works if you like Daves films and I do. Suzanne Pleshette then Mrs. Troy Donahue is cast as the female lead. Suzanne Pleshette does as always a first rate professional job. My question iswith the great track record of the Daves-Donahue movies why wasn't Troy Donahue then the biggest star on the WB lot as Youngblood Hawke? Genieve Page is fine as the leading lady a role Rita Hayworth was also considered.

- Spaceflightengineer
- 4/15/09
That this excellent opus of a young and naive writer's burgeoning and manipulated career, and "greening" has yet to be placed on DVD is astonishing to this fan. Pleshette, Franciscus and a film by Delmer Daves- what could a true fan of potboiler romance films want??Please consider bringing this out to the home media.BP
'Youngblood Hawke' deserves to be seen.
- Victoria
- 2/19/08
This very worthy movie should be on DVD. It was co-written by the great Herman Wouk and is based on his novel of the same name. It has a great cast in which all the parts are played by either actors who should have been big stars (Suzanne Pleshette) or are excellent character actors (the list is very long). TCM- please broadcast this movie so we who love it can record it for ourselves.
my favorite movie of all time

- 1/23/08
I love watching movies. Years ago I saw this movie and have never seen one I liked better. It is wonderful. The stars are excellent and the story is so believeable. I would love to have a copy of it and have searched and asked about it many times. PLEASE let me know if it can be gotten or if it is going to be shown, I don't always catch the listings.If you get a chance to watch it. DO, it is well worth your time and I think you will LOVE it too.
Youngblood Hawke is a Good Movie!
- Joe Dougherty
- 5/3/07
I can not understand why this movie gets panned all of the time. It has a good story, by one of the great writers, marvalous music by Max Steiner and a very HOT Suzanne Pleshette as the star.It should be out on DVD so the new generation can see.
Great book - love to see the film

Youngblood Hawke is one of my favorite books of all time - yet I have never seen the movie because it isn't available in any format. The cast looks great, and from all of the reviews I have read, it seems to be a very solid film. Please consider releasing it on DVD, or at the very least, showing it on TCM.
Entertaining Film

Reality intrudes again. President Bush and his allies keep insisting that the invasion of Iraq was essential to winning the fight against anti-American Islamic jihadists. The government's top experts on terrorism and Islamic extremism disagree. As The New York Times reported on Sunday, a National Intelligence Estimate produced earlier this year noted that the Iraq war has fueled Islamic radicalism around the globe and has caused the terrorist threat to grow. In other words, Bush's invasion of Iraq has been counterproductive. Or put this way: the ugly war in Iraq that has claimed the lives of thousands of American troops and tens of thousands of Iraqi civilians has placed the United States more at risk.
Times reporter Mark Mazzetti noted in his front-page article that he had spoken to "more than a dozen" U.S. government officials and outside experts who had either seen the NIE or who had participated in its creation. That's a lot of footwork. But he did not quote from the document itself, except to note that the NIE describes a radical Islamic movement of "self-generating" cells. (An NIE is the intelligence community's most definitive assessment of a major strategic issue and is supposed to represent the consensus view of the government's various intelligence agencies. This particular NIE is the first evaluation of global terrorism since the invasion of Iraq.)
The White House has claimed that the Times's account of the NIE did not represent the complete document. And Director of National Intelligence John Negroponte has declared–in response to the news of this NIE–that the Bush administration has scored significant success against the "global jihadist threat."
Well, is the threat now worse because of Bush's war in Iraq? Does the NIE say the war has made the jihadist threat more dangerous? The White House could resolve this very quickly by declassifying the NIE. If the report contains nuances or success stories not conveyed by the Times report (and those of other newspapers), releasing the report will clear things up.
The report is classified. But an NIE of this sort is probably more of an analytical document than a run-down of secret intelligence. And, certainly, the real secrets in the report–particularly references to sources and methods–can be redacted.

Emmerdale: Chas and Robert vow to get revenge on Gordon – will they make things worse for Aaron?
Police drop a huge bombshell on Aaron Livesy as he makes a decision following Gordon's threat – will he let his dad win?
CHAS Dingle and Robert Sugden vow to get revenge on Gordon Livesy (Gary Mavers) on Emmerdale next week.
Chas' son Aaron (Danny Miller) recently revealed he was sexually abused by his dad Gordon when he was a child, but the police have yet to arrest him.
Frustrated with the investigation going nowhere, and with Aaron fleeing the village to get away from his dad, Chas (Lucy Pargeter) decides to take matters into her own hands to get rid of her ex.
Aaron's former flame Robert Sugden (Ryan Hawley) agrees to help her, but is left angered when he spots her outside Gordon's house, spray painting his car.
Insisting they need to be more clever in order to bring him down for good, Robert warns Chas to stay away for Aaron's sake.
When the police question Chas over the vandalism, with a witness at the scene saying they saw her, will she make things worse?
Aaron returns to the village and is left feeling betrayed by his mother for revealing his ordeal, and asks her to take back what she said and say it didn't happen.
Chas later learns than Gordon's new partner Sandra denied all knowledge of Aaron's ordeal, leaving her worried over the investigation.
Aaron's uncle Cain Dingle (Jeff Hordley) decides to have a word with him, after Gordon threatened to have him sent down for attempted murder if Aaron didn't drop the case.
Cain persuades him to drop the case, but as Aaron informs the police that he wishes to change his statement he is stunned to learn a second victim has come forward!

May, 2009, Touring quilters
Nothing like a field trip to Burnsville, NC to energize the quilting mind, especially when quilt patterns are bold and center front on buildings in town. Barbara Webster is the moving force behind this wonderful display. Go to www.quilttrailswnc.org to get the full picture and to become inspired for your own home state. Barbara will come and give a presentation on how to do this step by step.
The blocks are classic patterns, but each has a twist which make them unique.
Study this block carefully. Yes, inside is a stocking factory and we sure got some good deals. One has to call ahead for this shopping spree but well worth the stop.
A lovely variation of Bear's Paw or maybe you have another name for this block.
We even had a tour of how this process all begins. Large sections are painted first and the secret is having a fork lift friend for installation!
Back to the garden. My new passion. Yes I have put a swinging blue door on one of my trails. It says "Entering Rest" and on the reverse you know what it says---"Leaving R--t"
New denim quilt we just finished for the Frugal Design Showcase Home tour here in Hendersonville, NC. It is a model home that will be completely decorated with furnishings supplied solely from the retail thrift stores in town affiliated with a non profit agency. The proceeds to view the home will be given back to the thrift stores and items are for sale. The quilt was made by our PTA group. Go to www.frugaldesign-hvl.com for info. The tour is June 19th and 20th.
Hot off the sewing machine is my show sample for the Quilt Market in Pittsburgh to be delivered this Saturday. Think cozy, sweet bedroom, inspired by the floral quilts of Marie Webster so the name is "Beddy Byes" and yes you can download the pattern off the internet at www.windhamfabrics.com
Stay tuned for more later. My Bernina is presently resting! Georgia

Fred Birkhill's "A Concise History of Lampworking" states, "One would expect the use of the lamp, as well as other techniques of glassworking to establish itself in the United States. Indeed, many lampworkers did emigrate from Europe to the U.S. during the 19th and 20th centuries. The primary use of flameworking has been for scientific purposes."
During the 1850s in Europe and the United States, glass companies had lampworking departments as part of their operations. Southern New Jersey, a hub of the glass industry for the country, had the largest concentration of lampworking businesses. The 1850s were also the time when lampworked flowers and designs were encased into paperweights. Troupes of lampworkers traveled through the world demonstrating this ancient art to entranced crowds at fairs and paid appearances.
At the beginning of the 20th century, powerful torches with controlled flames were created in response to industrial needs. Because the melting temperature of Pyrex is so high the old forced-air lamps could not melt the glass. Borrowing from the welding trade and combining oxygen and natural gas, new burners were designed that produced a flame of sufficient heat to melt Pyrex. A new method of heating the glass was now needed to work the new material. Traditional oil lamps were replaced by torches that were clamped to the lampworker's bench top. These too were eventually replaced by the modern surface-mix bench burners in use today.
If you would like more information check out these resources.

Beyonce to Cover GQ Magazine's February 2013 Issue?
Seriously. It's Beyoncé season.
A little photo is making its way around the 'net, leaking the top secret knowledge that Mrs. Beyoncé Knowles-Carter is covering the February 2013 issue of GQ Magazine. Not only is Blue Ivy's blonde-haired mama rockin' her favorite hue, she's showing off enough skin (and "don't lie" hips) to dub her the hottest Mom Of The Year.
Although there's no official word on whether this little shot is the glossy's official cover image, fans can assume that King Bey (who will also be dropping a revealing interview on HBO and most likely slaying the Super Bowl halftime stage) will be on newsstands (again) soon.

Spencer Higa's SOS
I was first introduced to this pattern while fishing for Apaches on the White River. A buddy was slaying them, and I was struggling to pick them up on my rotation into the "hole". He offered up this little fly and said it was the SOS (Save Our Skin) and boy did it. Changing to this fly as the dropper yielded a fish on almost every drift.
Originated by Spencer Higa and sold by Orvis, this awesome pattern has been a go-to fly for me just about everywhere I've fished for trout with droppers. Give it a try and see if its just the Distress Signal you needed to land more fish.Add a comment
White Trash Nymph
The White Trash Nymph has been working great as a dropper on the local Bass and Bluegill lakes recently. The bedded bass really seemed to hate this fly and numerous largemouth were caught while bluegill fishing over the past few months along with some bruiser bluegill as well.
Its a simple tie, and very effective. It is pretty much a Flashback Hares Ear using a white Simi Seal like dubbing I've been experimenting with.Add a comment
Flashback Hares Ear
The Flashback Hares Ear is my go-to dropper for most stillwater situations, I have a hard time finding another nymph in my boxes that is as consistient a producer as this fly.
Its a simple tie, and very effective. I don't tie it exactly to tradition opting to omit certain items to speed up the tying process as I go through a lot of these flies.
I hope you have as much success with this pattern as I do.Add a comment
Bar Fly
This is a simple wet fly that I first tied almost 25 years ago as a kid trying to find something that the local fish would eat when they were not slapping dries off the surface. My mom jokingly called it the "bar fly" much like the over the hill, chain smoking women you might find at the bar. The name stuck, and I think describes this fly well. Its gaudy and flashy, and old style.
I hope you have as much success with this pattern as I do.Add a comment
[Video] Red Wire Annelid
A quick and dirty wire annelid I tied for the San Juan River, New Mexico. It was quite effective for those of us that fished it. The wire seems to get the fly down a little quicker to the fish instead of only relying on the split shot or lead to get it down.
I tie it on as a dropper under an egg pattern or bugger and it works great. Hope it works for you, thanks for checking it out!

On Sunday morning, Scott took a few of the kids who weren't coughing quite so badly to church. I stayed home with the really sick ones. Keona looked like a walking corpse. Poor thing… and Jed, well he couldn't stop coughing, but that didn't deter him from running around non-stop.
Shortly after breakfast, I noticed that my braxton hicks contractions were becoming more frequent. Not painful. Just more often. Around lunch time, I decided to time them, and noticed that they were about 5 minutes apart. That lasted for an hour and then stopped. This continued all day long. I texted Scott to warn him. He told his Mom to be ready to head over 'just in case'… but I really didn't give it much thought. Afterall, my body refuses to go into labour… and I'm only 35/36 weeks. Mind you, my OB had told me that she wouldn't be surprised if I went early- seeing that the baby was measuring farther along… and to come in right away if my contractions lasted more than 1/2 an hour.
Fast forward to Monday morning… the contractions were back. Still not "labour"… but they were definitely getting more noticeable. My back was cramping with them now, and every once in a while I had a sharp pain by my c section scar. Which was a little bit unnerving with how many c-sections I've had. After speaking with my OB's assistant, we decided to head into the hospital totally expecting to be back home in a few hours.
At first, the monitor was picking up my contractions and I honestly started to wonder if I was crazy. I told Scott to come put his hand on my stomach just to be sure I wasn't imagining things… After moving the monitors around and the pain getting a little more intense, they decided to start an IV to see if that put a stop to things. Nope. Still thought I was going home shortly. Then they gave me a shot of… cannot remember the name of it- but it made me feel like I was in a dream for the rest of the night. That didn't work to stop the contractions either. Before either of us were expecting anything, the OB came in and told us that we were heading to the ER right away for a c-section. They didn't want to risk any damage to my scar…
Yikes! Nurses were handing me papers, quizzing me on past surgeries, allergies… you name it! I could barely put a sentence together, nevermind remember any of those things! I started crying as I was telling Scott to call my Mom and scribbling down random numbers as my kids birthdates, that made no sense at all!
About 20 minutes later, at 6:12pm, a 5lb 10oz baby girl was born!
I was positive, that I was having a boy- so we didn't have any girl names picked out! She remained "the baby" until the next morning.
The rest of the events of that evening are less than pleasant, and not particularly ones I want to remember. My perfectly healthy, crying-like-a-champ baby, was taken from me shortly after I got her because she was "grunting" (diagnosed by a rookie paediatrician) put on an IV for antibiotics it turns out she never needed, poked over 8 times as they tried to get an IV into every single one of her limbs, before they finally put it in her umbilical cord and x-rayed her to make sure it was in right, accidentally pulled it out, put it in and x-rayed her again, and then… she was diagnosed with erratic breathing. Well I guess so! I would be breathing pretty erratically after going through all of that as well! I got to see her again at 3:30am, when I was told not to touch her so that the IV doesn't come out. The IV she never needed in the first place… But I digress…
Daddy's hand…
The next morning after going to see her in the nursery, we named her "Lily Elizabeth." Neither of those names had come up throughout the entire pregnancy. And… we agreed on it right away. Ha! "Lily" after my mom, and "Elizabeth" after Scott's grandma.
Thankfully, she never had another problem for the next 4 days that she spent in the hospital.
Me, holding her for the first time after the whole ordeal…
It was not how I had envisioned her birth.
My kids were not there. We didn't get all the pictures I had planned. My kids didn't get to see her until Saturday, because they were all so sick that we couldn't bring them into the hospital to visit. But God is good! My new OB was on call the day we came in and she is a brilliant surgeon. My surgery that was expected to have complications- went flawlessly. Scott was able to take the week off of work without any problems. Between my mom and Scott's mom, we didn't have to worry about our other kids at all. Lily, was a perfectly healthy little girl in spite of being born early. She has nursed like a little piggy from the get-go. She got to come home to the same house as our last three… Oh yeah, did I mention that we moved 9 days after she was born??? :) The rest of my kids are healthy again, and thankfully didn't pass anything on to their baby sister. So many things to be thankful for…
Cell phone pic of her 'going home' outfit!
Two weeks later, and she has already filled-out that sleeper!
So there's the story.
Now you'll have to put up with me posting pictures of her constantly!
Her, and my new house… ;)

How the mortgage mess could spread beyond sub-prime
By Julian Fisher
Bank of America shares have been rocked by news that a consortium of mortgage bond investors is demanding it repurchase billions in soured mortgages, amplifying the effects of the recent "robo-signing" debacle.
Industry proponents are downplaying the risk that these so-called "putbacks" will impact more than a small number of financial institutions, but the evidence increasingly points to substantial and widespread breakdowns in controls along the mortgage origination and securitization chain.
What's more, the impetus for putbacks appears to be shifting from lapses in documentation to ones involving possible fraud and misrepresentation.
The potentially fraudulent activity has come to light through data gleaned from reports and FDIIC hearings involving third party re-underwiter Clayton Holdings, as reported by Reuters.com blogger Felix Salmon.
Unlike the documentary issues at the heart of the "robo-signing" debacle, these findings point to a banking-industry wide epidemic of bundling loans which failed the originators' underwriting standards into pools sold to investors.
Faulty underwriting appears to be prevalent across the board, with originators complicit in overvaluing both the lender and the collateral at the point of underwriting — and doing so systematically.
If this turns out to be the case investors have redress under a "Fair Consideration" clause in the contracts between loan originators, lenders, and investors.
This clause says that if the originator knew the loan was overpriced, having negotiated with the loan underwriter a lesser price, then this could be primae facie evidence that the price paid was not fair.
As the underwriting controls are investigated further, any evidence that originators failed to inform both the ratings agencies and investors about the quality of the underlying loans will lead to an increasing number of claims of fraud and misrepresentation.
Had rating agencies known of non-compliance, it would have adversely affected loan pool ratings and, subsequently, their price, due to increased likelihood of default.
Another wild card in the equation: losses related to putbacks on mortgage-backed CDOs which contain similar warranties and representations as mortgage-backed securities (MBS). Mortgage losses for originators could rise exponentially as CDOs can reference each mortgage pool multiple times. In the worst case the effects of CDOs putbacks and litigation could be catastrophic, by provoking a spate of legal suits, both justified and opportunistic.
At this time of increasing scrutiny there is a sea change in the way investors are forcing putbacks. The entities most active in putbacks had been Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Now, MBS investors such as PIMCO and the NY Fed are banding together to force servicers and their associated partners to comply with the terms of their trusts and enforce putbacks. Expect to see this group interest to grow. With originators having seen an increase of up to 300 percent in putbacks from 2008 to 2009, and reserves held by banks appreciating by a similar amount, there's little doubt where this trend should be heading.
As more and more evidence surfaces around defects, fraud and misrepresentation in the loan origination and securitization process, it will become increasingly easy for investors to prove a breach in warranties and representations. This raises the risk that the mortgage industry contagion will spread from one centered on the sub-prime space to Alt-A, Prime and mortgage derivative products.
Fasten your seat belts; it's going to be a bumpy ride.

Great article! The saddest part of this has to be that currently we are returning to the same atoms that went rogue and caused the just past atomic collapse. Let's list a few.
The Government will once again take back end risk
The loan programs are amazingly similar and will become even worse as competition once again increases.
There has been no recognition that Servicing/Master Servicing has not created capabilities that contain the universe of information necessary from origination through Securitization, Derivative formation(Tranching), Credit Default Swap(CDS)coverage and and public Exchange created tracking of CDS. (Exchange is necessary)
Finally for now, there is no cost efficiency that would allow only good loans instead of quantities necessary to cover the too large inefficient overheads.

I don't know if you're missing anything, Dave, but the parameters, what-ifs, definitions and machinations have gotten so complicated as to render a comparison (S&P500 vs. IUL) moot.The practical reality is that an IUL...~ Protects your principal from ALL market declines. (Zero is your hero.)~ Pays a death benefit, in the event of your demise, to heirs in many multiples of your total contribution.~ Charges fees far lower (.75-1.20%) than mutual funds, 401(k) and IRA (3-4%).~ Offers certain policies with an unlimited upside (no caps); i.e. Allianz's proprietary blended index.~ Ensures that ALL gains are protected.~ Provides an "annual reset" to ensure that your account participates in periods of robust market appreciation.~ Distributions are tax free.~ In some states, IULs feature ABR (accelerated benefits rider) in the event of chronic, critical or terminal illness. (Not available in CA.) Compare the above against trading naked in the S&P500. No contest, in my opinion, albeit we don't seem to be able to arrive at a simple comparison of percentage gains via back testing.

When we reported on Computershare's interim result last month, we explained that the investment case had changed somewhat: 'Instead of needing an increase in corporate activity and higher interest rates,' we wrote, 'we can get by with just hoping for them and exercising patience – something we have plenty of'.
Well we haven't needed much of it so far, because the stock has added 15% in a month. That puts it well beyond our $12 Buy price, so we're downgrading back to HOLD.
Note: Our model Growth and Income portfolios hold shares in Computershare.

SOUTH YARMOUTH — Residents will decide in September whether the town should add two new local taxes to help pay for a budget shortfall.
SOUTH YARMOUTH — Residents will decide in September whether the town should add two new local taxes to help pay for a budget shortfall.
The budget signed by Gov. Deval Patrick this summer lets municipalities add a local hotel use tax and meals tax. The board of selectmen voted Tuesday to hold a special town meeting Sept. 29 to decide whether to adopt the extra taxes. The board hasn't decided yet whether to support the plan.
If town meeting approves the meals tax increase, it would add an additional 0.75 percent tax for meals on top of the 1.25 percent increase Gov. Deval Patrick signed into law last month. The total sales tax for meals would be 7 percent.
A separate article on the warrant would add 2 percent to the local tax on hotel stays, raising the local hotel tax to 6 percent. The state charges a tax of 5.7 percent on hotel stays, so adoption of the local tax increase would bring the total tax to 11.7 percent, or $17.55 for a room that costs $150 a night.
The proposed tax hikes could help reduce the town's budget shortfall of more than $930,000, including more than $530,000 lost in state aid for the 2010 fiscal year. "There is no guarantee which way a vote would go in town meeting," Selectman Suzanne McAuliffe said.
If approved in September, the new taxes would start in January. Town officials estimate the new taxes could generate $250,000 in the fiscal year that ends next summer, McAuliffe said.
Robert DuBois, executive director of the Yarmouth Chamber of Commerce, said the extra taxes could keep tourists from visiting the area or spending money in town. "There is a lot of price sensitivity right now," DuBois said. "A few extra bucks on top of a room for a three- to five-nights' stay means less money they can spend elsewhere in the community."

LNY has an interesting effect on Asian markets as there is an eerie quiet, with only Japan and Australia open for business for most of the week. Singapore, Hong Kong and mainland China are all closed for LNY. Volumes will be well below average and there tends to be a build-up of global leads that is released once Asian investors return to their desk – expect 'release valve' trading late in the week.
Weekend inputs
Two interesting macro inputs drove futures and currencies over weekend – the biggest was clearly the reaction to the non-farm payrolls (NPF). The second was the PBoC Q4 announcements.
If ever there was an advisement for stop losses Friday's NFP was it:
- Headline job creation numbers were poor with only 151,000 jobs added in December versus consensus of 190,000; USD was shed immediately.
- A second glance showed unemployment fell to 4.9% - the lowest level since 2008. Wage growth was much stronger than expected and conditions strengthened. This lead to a very sharp reversal in USD trade, triggering all sorts of mayhem in currencyland.
- The NFP also pushed expectations on the Fed funds futures back into hike territory, although it is only signalling 1.5 hikes at best.
The NFP also caught up on the Street rumours that several major investment banks are running the numbers on scenarios that might lead to a global and localised recessions, considering 2016 has seen several factors at high five-to-seven-year lows. These two factors combined might explain the extended selling in equity futures on Saturday morning.
A summary of the PBoC's Q4 monetary statement:
- Suggests reserve requirement ratios could be cut further to push the RMB lower.
- Warned against 'large-scale' monetary easing (similar to that on August 2015).
- Tone was edging on the 'dovish' side.
- Average benchmark interest rates was 5.64% in December, a fall of 37 basis points on the September quarter. Its has lost 128 basis points year-on-year.
- Foreign reverses fell US$99.5 billion in January – less than estimated. However, this sees the reserve levels at US$3.23 trillion – the lowest level since 2012. It was also the first time ever China has seen its cash stockpile decline on an annual basis.
- Outflows remain high; however, the positive signal from the report shows a substantial amount of the capital outflows are private enterprises paying down debt.
The next date to watch for China is 23 February when the PBoC is due to meet to discuss how it will handle its capital flows for 2016. With the RMB is now part of the IMF's reverse basket, the rules stipulate that roughly a third of its currency needs to be on hand to meet its requirements. Normally these reverses are held in sovereign bonds but a substantial amount is currently in infrastructure, which is not exactly liquid. Shifting out of these infrastructure products will create liquidity shortfalls – an interesting dilemma and interesting macro risks for the next few week. The question is: Will there be a build-up in markets ahead of China's return?
Australia and Japan are therefore the only equity markets of note open. Australia sees half-year earnings season beginning in earnest today, with JB Hi-fi and Ansell first off the rank. We're not expecting any fireworks considering both have pre-announced. I do, however, remain fixed on CBA's Wednesday announcement as it could be a trigger point in the financial services sector and may see a bounce considering the market has sold down financial firms.

Cross Keys were left to rue poor defence and missed opportunities as they came away from the Arms Park with a narrow defeat.
It was a former Keys winger who did the damage for the Blue and Blacks with Jamie Davies crossing for a hat-trick of converted tries, the first of which as early as the 3rd minute under the posts at the Taff end. Joe Griffin converting for the capital city side.
Keys responded well and in the 10th minute after Nathan Trowbridge was held up short the ball was fed to Aled James who found himself at the bottom of a ruck to claim a try in the corner which Dorian Jones just failed to convert. Keys were under pressure after that but the defence stood firm and the pendulum once again swung back in Keys' favour and Dorian Jones kicked a sweet drop goal to give Keys the lead in the 27th minute.
Shortly after Keys had taken the lead Cardiff came straight back at the visitors and on the half an hour mark Jamie Davies crossed for his second try of the game as the Blue and Blacks made a huge overlap count to their advantage and Davies raced away to score as Keys chased shadows. Griffin kickied the conversion and a penalty goal shortly after as Keys were struggling to string any meaningful play together. Keys did however end the first half on top and Dorian Jones kicked a penalty to bring Keys to within a converted try at the break.
Half time Score Cardiff 17 Cross Keys 11
The second half seemed to start brightly for Keys who were finally starting to put the pressure on the home side. But the hard work of the opening 20 minutes or so of the second half produced no scoreboard action but it did see a yellow card produced to a member of each side.
No prizes for guessing who Keys card was issued to with substitute Danny Hodge walking back to the dug out along with Cardiff prop Ryan Harford after a scuffle. There is no doubt that opposition players target certain individuals in the Keys team knowing that those individuals will inevitably respond and perhaps knowing that the officials potentially also target the same Keys players without acknowledging what caused the reaction from Keys players in the first place!!
Skipper Rob Nash, who came off the bench then crossed for a well taken try for Keys which Dorian Jones converted to give Keys a narrow lead once again in the 65th minute. Two minutes later Jones kicked a penalty from inside his own half to further Keys' lead.
Then with Keys firmly on top, a moment of madness occured that perhaps cost Keys the match. Danny Hodge was for all intense and purpose pulled of the ball in a choke hold by his nemesis Ryan Harford so Ollie Hodge took matters in to his own hands, after it seemed the officials didn't feel the need to. It was Ollie who went one better than his little brother receiving his marching orders for charging at Harford with Danny struggling to free himself from the hold Harford had on him. Hodge snr. was red-carded whilst nothing more was said to Cardiff.
Keys fought well with just 14 men although Cardiff lock James Murphy did make his way to the sin bin in the 75th minute following a late tackle on Keys full back Gareth David. It was Jamie Davies who broke Keys' hearts with his hat-trick try in the 7th minute of extra time with poor Keys tackling certainly helping the flying wing to cross in the corner. Griffin converted from the touch line meaning Keys were left to lick their wounds and perhaps see the playoff berth slip away from them.
Cardiff Scorers:-
Tries: Jamie Davies (x3)
Conversions: Joe Griffin (x3)
Penalty: Joe Griffin
Cross Keys Scorers:-
Tries: Aled James & Rob Nash
Conversion: Dorian Jones
Penalties: Dorian Jones (x2)
Drop Goal: Dorian Jones
