On the sleetiest, slushiest day ever the hardiest Dutch Treat members and their guests turned out Tuesday undaunted for a good lunch (salmon after superb Vichysoisse, open bar), lively songs with wit and feeling from the brave Barbara Brussell with Jon Weber at his bouncing keys, and finally, cheerleading for the arts in education from the speaker, Aldon James of the National Arts Club, where the lively weekly gathering of arts performers and lovers has found its home for the past decade.
In the videos of Barbara singing you may see the extraordinary way in which her face reflects the emotions in her song, very like the clouds or the sun reflected in the surface of a lake.
All pics and videos are at this link http://photogenie.smugmug.com/Clubs/DutchTreat/Dutch-Treat-Jan-18-11-Aldon/15506305_xih6Q#1161453028_CtcWX
You can also glimpse in video her high energy acting out and the sheer vivacity of her presence on stage, well complemented by Jon Weber's vigorous and inventive backing, and all the more winning because it showed no trace of the heavy burden of the double bypass that felled the Sacramento lass for much of last year. In an interview afterwards (see same SmugMug pages) she tells how she recovered her momentum in eight months, helped by massage which so helped to reinvigorate her that she took up the training herself.
After this rousing and moving introduction Aldon assumed the lectern to give a hooray for the arts as the vitamins of culture and in particular their vital role in our schools, too many of which have responded to budget pressures by cutting them out entirely. Acknowledging the contributions of the Dutch Treat and many present from Nobles Lowe, one of our older members at 98 last September, to the sculptor who fashioned the fountain in Gramercy Park outside its front doors, now the only private park in the City, Aldon presented a film by Carol Wilder about Malcolm Sidney, the black pug bequeathed to the Arts Club by her film star owner, who immediately became a fixture at social events even though the aging canine had extreme difficulty in mounting the stairs (see clip).
Against the neighborhood trend exemplified by the Zeckendorf conversion of the Salvation Army building into a tall condo in which the real estate magnate planned to reside, Aldon vowed that the Club would remain its own master and always "only belong to the National Arts Club", and remain dedicated to "educational and cultural purposes."
Steve Downey, husband of KT Sullivan the DT president, wondered if the original promise of provincial chapters of the Arts Club could be realized as a way of fighting the trend to remove art teaching from schools . "Couldn't we have state chapters?" he suggested, and Aldon allowed that "You're right. We do need to expand and reach out. We were never intended to be a Lincoln Center. It's the immediacy that counts here. We are here to enable our committees to do what they do. We had motorcycles here before the Whitney had them, we had tattoos done in front of 300 people, we had the Art of the DJ".
A new committee has been formed on Art and Technology, Aldon added, and "this year we will be at Burning Man!" The Burning Man's founder Larry Harvey has appeared at the Club, which has held benefits for the uniquely way out, participant driven California desert arts costume dance and sculpture bash. (Ten minutes of Aldon's talk can be viewed in the SmugMug link pages.)

"The Curious Case of Zack Greinke", Coming to a Ballpark Near YouAugust 6, 2009
Remember when Zach Greinke was slated to pitch for the Royals and fans around baseball simply assumed that Kansas City was the favorite to win on that particular day? Well those days lasted about as long as your average fruit fly's lifespan.
In his past ten starts, the Royals are 2-8 when Greinke toes the rubber, Greinke going 2-5 during that span. In his past two starts in particular, the 2009 All-Star has surrendered 8 ER in 11 innings to go along with 15 base hits. His ERA has risen from 1.72 to 2.36 over the course of his recent ineffective streak. Now an ERA of 2.36 is not what one would consider high, but if he continues at this pace, the one time Cy Young Award front-runner will fade back into mediocrity…where he belongs.
Greinke has always been a "head case" during his MLB career, and it looks as though this mental midget is falling back into familiar patterns. The career 44-51 right hander has a lifetime ERA of 3.87, a far cry from the Greinke who toted a Major League Baseball leading sub 1.00 ERA for a majority of the first half of the season.
Zack Greinke has great stuff, but much like other young right handers Manny Parra and Clay Buchholz of the Brewers and Red Sox respectively, he doesn't always necessarily show it. Mental fortitude is one of the attributes that separates the good pitchers from those who are considered great. Josh Beckett is a prime example of this. Beckett and Greinke have similar talent, however it's Josh's mental toughness and bulldog mentality on the mound that makes him an elite front of the rotation pitcher.
Clearly Greinke is going through a rough patch. The problem is that he may not have what it takes mentally to get through it. This is the type of performance that can potentially ruin the rest of his season, and in turn his career if he cannot manage to push through it. It will be interesting to see how he bounces back from his recent start against Tampa Bay that saw him get roughed up to the tune of six earned runs in five innings.
Looking at it from monthly intervals, it's easy to see that Greinke's hot start could be classified as a "fluke": [Read more...]

Press Release – DOT and FAA Finalize Rules for Small Unmanned Aircraft Systems
After all the Hell to get my 333 and renew my pilots license , you can now get yours in August like a breeze!
Under the final rule, the person actually flying a drone must be at least 16 years old and have a remote pilot certificate with a small UAS rating, or be directly supervised by someone with such a certificate. To qualify for a remote pilot certificate, an individual must either pass an initial aeronautical knowledge test at an FAA-approved knowledge testing center or have an existing non-student Part 61 pilot certificate. If qualifying under the latter provision, a pilot must have completed a flight review in the previous 24 months and must take a UAS online training course provided by the FAA. The TSA will conduct a security background check of all remote pilot applications prior to issuance of a certificate.
Yes, you know longer will need to be a manned aircraft pilot, there's a new classification of "remote pilot certificate," but wouldn't you still need to have a section 333?
No, the 107 will override the 333 for "Some" flight operations. For instance if you want to fly out of LOS and certain operations outside the 107, you will still need a 333 from what I am reading, haven't finished reading all the details, as I wanted to get this to you all. August 15, 2016 will reveal more!
I wonder if we will be able to get our testing done and get the TSA background check underway before August??
I just read that the fees total about $5800.00, can anyone confirm?
You're kidding, right? You could get a sport pilot certificate for that.
Just reporting what I read from a "user" on another drone forum. I wish I was kidding. Maybe I misunderstood. I would be quite happy if I did.
er, actually, he said $6800.00. Man, I hope he's wrong!
I don't see how that could be accurate. I mean the final ruling was just posted minutes ago. If so were still screwed.
It will cost you...
Knowledge Test Fee $2548.60 (notice the accuracy to the penny, I like that)
Positive Identification of the Applicant Fee $434.80 (my wife would likely do this for considerably less)
Small UAS registration fee $85.70 (ouch)
TSA Security Vetting $1026.50 (This makes little sense, it cost $50 to sign up for the Precheck system)
Knowledge Test Report $154.90
Ta hell with that. Not calling anyone out here but I will find out for myself when I go to our local testing facility.
I can't imagine an online course costing $6800! I think the online training course should be free with a small fee to take the test. This will help promote the UAS industry.
This billion dollar industry will create thousands of jobs. Every single segment of the industry, from manufacturing to photography is taxed. All those jobs will bring in more tax revenue for everyone. The FAA needs to look at the big picture. The biggest problem with the government is they are not businessmen. They have no clue how to make money, only spend it.
I doubt it. but may be wrong
I broke down the cost right here - #12
The online is for those who in last 24 months we doing a non student pilots license, for most it will be done in person at a FAA testing facility/certification facility as it states and no way it would cost more than a drivers license in my thoughts!. Hell you can get a regular sports pilots licence with training for 6K
If you currently hold an airman license you can take it online... if your new & green you will need to go to a testing center.
And where has the FAA posted costs ? Just curious where all this facts are coming out from?
Just said that!

Thoughts on Love: A response to the related forum topic.
Published by Unsavory in the blog Unsavory's blog. Views: 197
I recently came across a thread at these very forums where several members got into a debate about love. Since most of the soft spots in my body are for football, video games, and bad movies, this didn't interest me at first. However, as the debate became more heated and the validity of romantic love as a genuine form came into question I began to think. I realized that debating the existence and validity of love is about as futile and arbitrary a practice as there is, particularly when one disregards emotions and approaches the subject from a strictly philosophical and/or intellectual point of view.
The issue as I see it is that "true love" is viewed as selfless and pure in its finest form. If we place love on such a high pedestal, it simply ceases to exist. It was said on the forum by a member who I respect dearly that romantic love is simply a glorified form of lust. Fair enough. Romantic love is fueled by sexual desire and would not exist if the yearning for physical stimulation went away. No matter how much affection a person can have for their lover, romantic love is easy to qualify as selfish because it is dependent on emotional and physical satisfaction more than it is the constant desire to give and to nurture.
The problem however is that all forms of love can be criticised in exactly the same way, even if the process isn't quite as clear cut. Much as the instinctive desire for sexual contact stimulates romantic relationships, the instinctive desire to reproduce for the continuation of the species stimulates paternal relationships. It's really just another step down the same path. While it's true that I will never know the love that a mother has for her child, the biological need for this form of love is easy to see. Parents need to love their children for the sake of the species. They are driven to give everything they have for their offspring. Whatever amazing spiritual experiences a mother feels for their child can all be related to a biological and thus impersonal need for our species to keep on existing.
I do not deny that paternal love is a beautiful and wonderous thing, perhaps far more powerful than any other form of love that there is. But when other forms of love are criticized as being less pure and thus less "real," this must be recognized for what it is. An emotional response and a personal opinion. There isn't logic behind it at all.
The point is that either love exists or it doesn't. Qualifying different types of love as "true" or "pure" is an impossible battle that can only end in inventing new words and reimagining old ones when everything is fine just the way it is. After all, "romantic love" may be related to lust, but the definition of lust leaves out any mention of affection, self-sacrifice, communication, or any of the other beautiful things present in a healthy romantic relationship. It's one small piece to a complex puzzle.
Despite the fact that I have just broken down and trivialized many treasured aspects of love in a most cynical way, my true feelings have not been reflected here. Maybe that's because true feelings can't be expressed in words.
Feelings and our own personal experiences are what determine the definition of love. If you believe you are in love, then you are in love. There's no reason to question it.
Sure, a grander experience may alter your perception of love and change your mind, but that's to be expected.. You will learn, grow, and redefine every emotion and thought that you ever experience. That's all part of being human and the personal discovery of ourselves and our emotions is much more amazing than trying to break down the logistics of a simple word.

Since I decided to make this set for the 1940's; American Girl Molly's time period, I thought I better find a name for the baby that was popular in those years. The number one girls name in 1944 was Mary…and I thought it had a nice ring… Molly and Mary… so I figured it was meant to be!
Molly's dress was made from the only fabric I had in my stash that had aqua (the stroller wheels), pink (the baby's onesie) and purple, (the stroller handle). I'm sort of funny about making things match… If you're going to do a set, have it match… (just think what it would have looked like with the stroller if I had used a navy and white print for the dress, and then trimmed it in red rick rack…) ICK!
If you click on any picture it will enlarge.
I just made a sweet little girls dress and accented it with some pink criss cross trim and a few felt flowers.
The skirt is full and has a bit of lace at the hem and I used pink thread to make a scalloped stitch very faintly just above the hem. The dress closes in back with snaps covered by pretty white buttons.
Underneath Molly's dress is a white tulle slip which holds out her dress nicely. I made a new pair of white socks for her too.
She has purple ribbons tied in her hair…
Mary is looking sweet as can be in her stroller… When I first held Molly up to the stroller, she was barefoot and her hands reached the stroller handle better. Now that she's in shoes and socks, her fingers just touch.
Molly looks like she's got this "babysitting" thing down pretty well, don't you think?
Anyone remember how much you got paid an hour for babysitting in the 1940's? Just curious… ( just guessed on the .25 cents, but decided to google in anyway and .25 cents was the going rate… some girls asked for .45 cents if they did dishes and vacuumed…) :o)
I managed to get it listed on Ebay, so here is the link, if you'd like to see it! ~ The Babysitter ~
(or you can click on the picture at the right side bar… just under Elizabeth's Regency dress, which ends tomorrow evening…)
See you tomorrow,
Blessings, Jeanne

Now, for some fans, the critical mauling that Suicide Squad has received in recent days has led to quiet introspection - or to a discussion of just what their impact on the movie's success will be. For others, it's been a prompt for frustration, and defense - as in the case of of the film's director, David Ayer. For one determined fan, though, none of that was quite enough.
Abdullah Coldwater, y'see, saw something more problematic in critics' rejection of the film than a mere dislike of Suicide Squad, or a questioning of its relative quality. Specifically, he took issue with the review aggregation site Rotten Tomatoes, on which Suicide Squad currently has a rating of 29%, and started a petition to get the site shut down, arguing that it gives an unfairly critical perspective of DC movies. However, after just a day online (and 18,495 signatories)...
Abdullah Coldwater's Anti-Rotten Tomatoes Petition Has Been Withdrawn
As he put it, in the wake of an active and often angry debate that arose from the petition's arrival:
"In fact i started this petition to gather dc fans to express our anger just for fun. I didn't mean it to be taken that serious.... After thinking. I found this petition is pointless. And the only thing that it does is spreading a speech of hate and online fighting among the supporters and objectors. The movies is something to enjoy. And the hate and fight is the opposite of enjoying."
Which is actually an extremely important point, and very much supports the argument that:
The Withdrawal Of Coldwater's Petition Is A Victory For Movie Fans Everywhere
Including, it should be noted, Coldwater himself. Y'see, as he made clear in the statement above, the petition wasn't an attempt to start a Twitter-war, or to encourage fans to hate Marvel because DC is being criticized by some journalists. Instead, it was a reaction to the perception that the DC Extended Universe is somehow being mistreated - a reaction that, when it created more problems than it looked likely to solve, Coldwater wisely withdrew.
Why, though, is that withdrawal a victory for fans? Well, there are two key reasons:
1. Critics Aren't Fans' Enemies, And Nor Is Rotten Tomatoes
So, here's the thing. For all that some fans see a conspiracy in Suicide Squad's negative reviews, film journalists really aren't out to screw over DC, or any other superhero movie. True, everyone has their own bias - some of us don't like horror movies, say, while others couldn't sit through a rom-com - but that doesn't add up to a carefully planned scheme to ruin the box office prospects of Warner Bros. superhero movies or to somehow indirectly advantage Marvel Studios and Disney.
Instead, the vast majority of movie journalists and film critics are just fans who happen to get paid - or not, in many cases - to talk about the movies they love. When Suicide Squad disappoints them, it's just that - disappointment. A critical review rarely represents anger, or malice, or any sort of vindictive forethought. Instead, it simply indicates that a fan with a public outlet for their thoughts didn't like the movie - much like any negative tweet or Facebook post does. Reviews, then, are intended to provide a guide for movie-goers who haven't already decided to go to see the movie, but are also just the opinions of folks who love - or hate - movies in the exact same way every other film fan does: Individually.
Rotten Tomatoes, of course, is an entirely different animal, and it is certainly possible to understand why many fans dislike its simplified ratings system (broadly speaking, a movie is either rated 'fresh' or 'rotten', based on an aggregation of a whole lot of reviews from 'recognized' journalists). With the complexities of each critics argument - most reviews ultimately had some positive things to say about Suicide Squad, for instance - being lost in the process, it's not too tough to understand a certain disgruntlement with the site's prominence.
That being said, though, it's ultimately just a website, and one that vast swathes of the movie-going audience pay absolutely not attention to - and that we as fans are under no obligation to click onto, or listen to the ratings of. If you find that it helps you 'crowd-source' reviews of movies, then that's great. If you find it unhelpful, and choose to ignore it in favor of a particular reviewer, a friend's recommendations, or even just going and seeing movies without reading any reviews at all, then that's great too.
The even more important thing that Coldwater's withdrawal of the petition serves to remind us, though?
2. Shouting At Each Other Online Isn't The Best Way To Share Our Love Of Movies
As Coldwater put it:
"After thinking. I found this petition is pointless. And the only thing that it does is spreading a speech of hate and online fighting among the supporters and objectors. The movies is something to enjoy. And the hate and fight is the opposite of enjoying."
Which is absolutely true. There is no reason that someone who loves the Marvel Cinematic Universe can't also love the DCEU, much as there's no reason that someone who loved The Avengers has to love Thor: The Dark World, or that someone who disliked Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice can't love Suicide Squad. Similarly, there's no reason why a bad review on Rotten Tomatoes has to impact on our opinion of a movie (that the vast majority of us haven't even seen yet). Heck, there's even no particular reason for us all to divide ourselves into different superhero-themed tribes at all, beyond social media's tendency to encourage such divisions - and there's certainly no reason for us to shout at each another for not liking a movie, or for, say, preferring one actor's take on the Joker to another.
As Coldwater's withdrawal of his petition makes clear, the flinging of hate online (and the in-fighting that tends to follow in its wake) is one of the best possible ways to stop people from actually enjoying movies. Which, in a world where we're lucky enough to be surrounded by a steady stream of geek-tastic movies that fans twenty years ago would have killed for, is a crying shame.
Kudos, then, to Coldwater, for - in the end - taking a stand for enjoyment over shouting, and for respect over conspiracy theorizing. We all stand to benefit from an internet freed from hate, from cynicism, and from endless ALL-CAPS screaming. The big question now, though?
What do you reckon?
Would the internet be a better place if we were all a little kinder to one another?

My garden looks like the day after a big party. Plants in a various states of disarray, heaps of spent flowers have fallen asleep right where they were so vibrant just weeks ago, everywhere I look there are reminders of summer's wildness. Some years I go at fall clean up with great enthusiasm. I can't wait to clear it all away and have a totally zen garden to look at. No mess, just rocks, soil and conifers. Not this year — I feel reluctant, my mind is elsewhere.
Immediately I start to rationalize and formulate "the rules". I can't cut down any plant that might provide food for the birds. There, that eliminates having to deal with anything with seed heads. Besides, they look so interesting and sculptural, especially after a frost.
Technically, I really shouldn't cut anything down until after a few good frosts when the perennials are completely dormant. By doing it too early, it might stimulate growth and waste much of the plant's energy.
Not to change the subject but has anyone else noticed what an incredibly vibrant fall we've been having? My weather guru, Cliff Mass, who, btw, has his own new weather blog, said "fall colors are encouraged when there are warm, sunny days and cool, non-freezing nights. We have had an unusual number of such days/nights during much of October. The fact we haven't had any windstorms to knock off the leaves certainly helped too".
So, what's it going to be? Layers of fallen debris, no doubt immediately inhabited by pesky mold spores, masses of pests laying eggs, blackspot galore and slugs breeding under every pile of leaves. Well, I guess so because by the time I finished taking these photos, it has started to rain again. Obviously, I am distracted in a big way.
So you see, I really can't clean up the garden today. Besides, we haven't had a frost yet and with global warming, we might not have one for a very long time. My time is definitely better spent checking and re-checking the polls, pulling out my voter's pamphlet to study up on the things I haven't decided on, making a game plan for standing in line tomorrow — you know, the right clothes, reading material, cell phone charged, food and water in case there is a long wait. I guess you can tell where my head is — Everybody Please Get Out and Vote!

Social in Politics & Governance – When 'Of the People' takes a whole new meaning
Lately in India there has been quite a bit of news about political parties taking social media more seriously, however it is only being looked at as a marketing tool. For a while now I have been feeling that the term 'social media marketing' is wrongly coined because social media is never just about marketing…. it would be much better to refer to it as 'social media communications' as it alludes to a wider range of possibilities with social media. Recently I came across some very interesting stuff happening in Europe in the political sphere…
Beppe Grillo's Political Party Model
Using a mix of new media & traditional rallies Beppe Grillo has just pushed his political party or should we say 'unparty' into the limelight. While social media platforms namely Twitter, Facebook & Blogs have been used largely as a marketing tool, what I find most intriguing is the disruptive nature of the party itself!
"get rid of the parties, put citizens in, limits of two terms, get the corrupted out of Parliament." (Read More)
The model of the political party is to bring in citizens who rule for a limited number of terms. It would be like Jury duty i.e. volunteer duty not a money making profession at all. All processes can be made very transparent and such so the people are accountable. I don't know the exact details about Grillo's party model but this is very intriguing.
With the advent of internet and social media – the people in the world and within a country are connected, so connected! It is very much possible for a country with high internet literacy and penetration to elect normal, working citizens into a ruling seat. These elections can happen frequently – every two terms.
It reminds me of,
@Sweden – Sweden's Twitter account managed by the People
The countries official Twitter account is a huge asset for the tourism board, thus it is a government asset. It is completely being managed by Sweden's citizens. One citizen every week – and has been working brilliantly for quite some time now.
So we already have live examples of how citizens can completely manage at least some of the government positions. The government's role then becomes more of facilitators. Where they bring in necessary processes and manage them for the citizens to rule themselves.
Bigger decisions about the country can actually be made taking into consideration what the citizens actually think. This Poll by Telegraph – Gibraltor belongs to UK or Spain? which was open for its readers to vote made me realise how possible this is. There could be a platform where the government clearly explains the pros and cons of decisions and then citizens can vote and decide the verdict or at least heavily influence it. Even now citizens can have major petition campaigns and such but often this is few and far and a lot of us are quite skeptical about how much of a difference these campaigns make.
Now however, citizens can be asked to be active participants of the government itself. They can manage many of the positions and roles as part of citizen duty, they can be decision & policy makers – the internet brings all this freedom & responsibility!
The only question that I wonder about however is if we manage a government system that is run truly by the people and is literally 'of the people' – taking the entire populace into consideration via polls and such will that necessarily be a good thing? It raises lot of questions about humanity itself. For eg this survey which states 1 in every 4 Asian men have indulged in rape or 1 in 3 women have experience domestic violence in America – when incidents of crime are so high, and these are the numbers on paper – what are the real numbers? Then do we trust us – the people – to really rule ourselves justly by taking public sentiments into consideration?
Will social media at some point bring the human race face to face with itself? What will we find?

Mobile Offline Access on your iPad (Heap CRM)Tweet
The offline mobile interface for Heap CRM now has a specialized version for tablets (most notably the iPad). This is the very same software that you can run offline on your iPhone, Android device or Palm Pre; it just detects the larger display and uses the space more efficiently. The menu on the left is always kept on the screen, even as you scroll down the page.
But, because of the way this implemented, this interface is already available for future tablets. Any tablet running the iPhone OS, Android or WebOS (Palm) will just work.
The main Heap CRM interface also works on the iPad, but if you are on a shaky to nonexistent connection, the offline mobile interface is the way to go.

On Sunday I took my car out for a drive by cruising down past Washington Lake. The drive was a lovely one with the lake gleaming in the distance. I headed to Seward Park since it looked like a nice destination to try out.
This park has a clay studio facility where you can take classes or use the space freely. I took a peek inside and that first picture up there is a sculpture they had out front.
I can't tell you how refreshing it was to walk down this road and see the blue sky and water gleaming nearby. Also it wasn't too crowded, with enough periods of "no people" to get in some quiet moments. Looking around the park grounds I couldn't help but start to wonder about the geology of the local area. On this Seward park website it outlines some information about the local geology.
Lake Washington and the shape of the Bailey Peninsula owe their existence to a different era: the ice age that ended only 14,000 years ago and which was the dominant force in shaping the current landscape. The peninsula shoreline illustrates the geologic impact of humans through activities such as building canals and roads.I didn't take on the whole course at the park and instead found the sun shining down a bench facing the lake and decided it was a good spot.
Here I enjoyed the sun warming up my face and blinding my eyes. Yet I managed to get a sketch in of the view using some new pens I picked up in Korea before I left.
From there I walked around a bit more and then headed back home, but all in all look forward to coming back to this park and exploring the whole trail.

This photographer should win an award!!
Mixed dubs Anyone?
Now that's the perfect tennis outfit!!
Who is that on the right?
He's has an uncanny knack...
Not all are tennis players I think. Ones on the ends are models I believe.

You have an uncanny knack for finding them pictures :mrgreen:
I guess you practice often. :lol:

daniela has added some weight, now looking mildly attractive
Don't backhand Dani.
You're right about her weight though. She looked real skinny just a short while ago (as recent as earlier this year).
But now now she looks fuller.

Two boys named Tyree King killed at age 13 in Ohio one year apart. On its surface you wouldn't necessarily believe it speaks of Israel and The United States in prophecy. Deep calls unto deep, children of The Most High have no business skimming the surface.
TrumPence Trumpets
And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying unto me, Fear not; I am the first and the last: I am he that lives, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death. Revelation 1:17-18
This is for about 10% of regular readers. Understanding what we have covered previously is going to be very helpful. Confirmations connecting us back 19, Smyrna, Philadelphia, Trumpets and Prince continue to surface. In the days of increased knowledge we are able to search out connections within scripture that would've taken months or years in the past. We will be looking at what themes come up when we look at current events through the verses that contain the same words.
The Greatest Of All Time
The Lord kills and brings to life; He brings down to Sheol and raises up. The Lord makes poor and makes rich; He brings low and he exalts. 1 Samuel 2:6-7
The prophetic theme of June is the lofty will be made low. On the 2nd day of the 6th month we saw the pride of American military strength drop from the sky in two separate exhibitions. One at the headquarters of our nation's Air Force and the other at a small town named after a church in Revelation, Smyrna. The pronouncement, declaration, proclamation was made on May 31st that hereby the month of June would be to honor the LGBT community who bravely and proudly has waived their flags of pride. Read More
Storm Clouds In The West Roar Like Thunder – Do You Know How To Discern The Times?
He also said to the crowds, "When you see a cloud rising in the west, you say at once, 'A shower is coming.' And so it happens. And when you see the south wind blowing, you say, 'There will be scorching heat,' and it happens. You hypocrites! You know how to interpret the appearance of earth and sky, but why do you not know how to interpret the present time? Luke 12:54-56
The Thunder are in the Western Conference finals, the Heat from the southernmost metropolitan city in the United States lose to the Raptors. The Golden Gate with Steph Curry and The Golden CAVs with King James from the city founded by Moses. We have an undeniable modern metaphor, hidden beneath the facade of entertainment lies a deeper reality written in the only book The Last Trump would rank ahead of The Art of The Deal.
An onslaught of prophetic symbolism has taken place in the last 11 months. Each new piece of information builds upon the previous and they all point back to Moses and Mount Sinai.
Golden State faced the Thunder three times this season. The first game was on the Eve of Super Bowl 50, the second was 239 days from the first day of America's 239th year and had a total of 239 points as the final score. The third game was on 3/3 where Steph Curry scored 33 points and Prince was attendance 49 days prior to his death. Oh yea, that game on 3/3 was the 239th total regular season game these two teams have faced each other. The first was in 1967 the year Jerusalem was recaptured for the 44th time when the Thunder were the Seattle Supersonics. Read More
Of Lions And Princes
All I will say with regard to ritual sacrifice is that indeed Prince died during the 13 day Blood Sacrifice to The Beast ritual. 13 connects us back to Cecil the Lion who died at 13 as well as the number in scripture for rebellion. This is the obvious stuff and quite frankly I'm bored of it. You can stare at the "whats" of the enemy each new day but it's the same drivel. Celebrities die under questionable circumstances one after another. So there is clandestine evil in the world, what an unbelievable epiphany! Things are getting darker and people are more deceived than ever? What a surprise!

What aspects of Squeaky's personality would make you want - or not want - to be her friend in "Raymond's Run"?
- print Print
- list Cite
I would want to be Squeaky's friend because she can grow as a person, she stands up for others, and she follows through with what she says she will do.
What makes Squeaky a good friend is her ability to grow as a person. Although at first she seems a little standoffish, and actually sort of mean, she is open to learning about people and changing her views on them. This is important in a friend, because people who will make one snap judgement and never give you another chance a) often do not even get a chance to be your friend, and b) sometimes fight with you and stop being your friend for dumb reasons.
Evidence for this is that Squeaky was not friends with Gretchen at first, and in fact disliked her quite a bit. She even insulted her, using short legs and freckles as a reason not to be friends with her. It was mostly the fact that Gretchen had friends and she didn't, and she was jealous of Gretchen. She thought Gretchen was a show off. It seems though, that Gretchen's friends were worse than Gretchen.
Squeaky is very impressed with Gretchen during the race, describing her as a "pro" several times. When Gretchen comes in second, Squeaky decides she might be friend material.
And I look over at Gretchen wondering what the "P" stands for. And I smile. Cause she's good, no doubt about it. Maybe she'd like to help me coach Raymond; she obviously is serious about running, as any fool can see.
Clearly, Squeaky is capable of seeing people for who they are eventually. She may be harsh with people sometimes, but she has to be. She is very protective of her older brother because he is mentally handicapped and people make fun of him. She has to look out for him, and has to be careful who she is friends with.
This brings me to the second reason Squeaky is a good friend. She stands up for Raymond, so she would probably stand up for her friend. Raymond is her younger brother, and he is bigger, but he acts strangely because she is different. Squeaky takes her responsibility to take care of him very seriously. Anyone who teases Raymond has to get through her.
[If] anybody has anything to say to Raymond, anything to say about his big head, they have to come by me. …I much rather just knock you down and take my chances even if I am a little girl with skinny arms and a squeaky voice …
Other children try to tease Raymond, or Squeaky, and she will fight them. She doesn't try to talk about it first. She is one tough little girl. Getting into fights is not the best trait in a friend, but knowing that someone will stand up for you is nice.
Finally, Squeaky follows through with whatever she says she will do. When she says she will win the race, she trains hard and does win. Follow-through is important. It is good to have someone who will always be there for you. She also notices potential in others. Squeaky notices that Raymond keeps up with her when she is training, and ran alongside her during the race. She decides to train him so he can race too.
[It] occurred to me that Raymond would make a very fine runner. Doesn't he always keep up with me on my trots? … And I'm smiling to beat the band cause if I've lost this race … I can always retire as a runner and begin a whole new career as a coach with Raymond as my champion.
Squeaky is a good friend because she follows through with her own race, and she is passionate about racing. She is so passionate that she does not even care if she is the one racing. She is even willing to coach her brother in racing and make him the champion racer, because that is how much she loves running.
This interesting story gives us first-person insight into a tough but sweet little girl whose life is not very easy, but she makes the most of it. She is trying to make the most of taking care of her brother and navigating friendships with other girls, which is not easy for her. Her passion in life is running, and through it, she finds a connection with her brother, and a new friend.
Start your answer to this question by writing a list of all Squeaky's personality traits. Then, make a note as to whether these occur at the beginning or end of the work (i.e. how does Squeaky grow?). If you can, write down a quote or page reference for each personality trait - this might help you with finding quotes or preparing for your next question or essay.
Now think about your own friends. Write down the top five things that make your friends amazing, and the top five personality traits that annoy you. Are there any traits that occur on both lists (i.e. Squeaky and your own preferences)?
For example, from my point of view, here are some of Squeaky's personality traits that I would enjoy and find frustrating.
Pros: knows what she wants, determined, inner strength, willing to stand up for you and what you believe in.
Cons: decisive, committed to what she wants, might not have time for you when you need it, might be quick to anger/disagree with you, comes across as cocky and overconfident.
Sqeaky is determined. She knows what she wants and goes after it. She is also supportive, once she realizes that Raymond is also running she decides that she will help him in his journey to success. After the race, Sqeaky smiles at Gretchen which to me was a sign of forgiveness. So we could say she is forgiving too.
These are what would make sqeaky a good friend for me. I need someone who supports me in anything I do, forgiving because no relationship/ friendship is perfect, and determined because I need to know you're serious about whatever it is you want to do in life.

In 1962 and 1963, Wilder spent twenty months in hibernation, away from family and friends, in the town of Douglas, Arizona. While there, he launched The Eighth Day, a tale set in a mining town in southern Illinois about two families blasted apart by the apparent murder of one father by the other. The miraculous escape of the accused killer, John Ashley, on the eve of his execution and his flight to freedom triggers a powerful story tracing the fate of his and the victim's wife and children. At once a murder mystery and a philosophical story, The Eighth Day is a "suspenseful and deeply moving" (New York Times) work of classic stature that has been hailed as a great American epic.
by Ashley Gallagher
Plot Summary
The Eighth Day, recipient of the 1968 National Book Award, was written nearly thirty years after the premiere of Our Town and stands as the penultimate novel of Thornton Wilder's career. At seventy years old, Wilder's inspiration for The Eighth Day was prompted by his sojourn to Douglas, Arizona. As Tappan Wilder indicates in his afterword included in the 2006 reissue of The Eighth Day, his uncle began fervently writing and, pleased with the novel's progress, commented: "'[it is] just original enough to seem fresh; it's not really like usual novels.'"1 Indeed, among other unconventional aspects, The Eighth Day has a nonlinear structure. The prologue reveals the 1902 murder of Breckinridge Lansing by John Ashley, followed by Ashley's mysterious rescue while en route to his execution. In the first chapter entitled "The Elms," an omniscient narrator transports the reader to Coaltown, Illinois, hometown of the Lansings and Ashleys. Here, John Ashley is established as an American hero; he is seen as an invaluable citizen of Coaltown and a beloved family man. While this first chapter sheds doubt on Ashley's conviction it also introduces the reader to the Ashley family and their struggle to survive after their patriarch's disappearance. The reader also learns of Ashley's son, Roger, who moves to Chicago seeking employment to support his family, while Roger's younger sister, Sophia, turns the Ashley home into a boarding house. Just as the narrator reaches 1905 with the Ashley family reasonably intact, with the exception of Lily who runs away to become a singer, Wilder switches the reader's focus from the Ashley family back to John Ashley. As the title "Illinois to Chile 1902-1905" suggests, Ashley embarks on a three-year journey to escape capture. During this time, while Ashley is forced to take on various occupations and personas, he still remains a hero. Once in Chile, he takes up building churches and repairing hospitals until his true identity is discovered by "rat catcher" Wellington Bristow, and Ashley is forced to fake his death. However, as fate or Wilder would have it, while in his flight, Ashley drowns at sea in 1905. For so complicated an escape, Ashley's death is sudden and simply stated at the end of the chapter. Yet, this is not the last the reader sees of John Ashley. In The Eighth Day's third chapter, "Chicago 1902-1905," the reader learns of Roger's success as a Chicago journalist and relationships with women before a flashback to 1883, Hoboken, New Jersey, the meeting place of Beata and John Ashley. The two meet, fall in love, and eventually move to Coaltown under the pretense of being man and wife despite never having been officially married. The second to last chapter concentrates on the tumultuous and unhappy union of Breckinridge and Eustacia Lansing as well as Lansing's illness days before his murder. The sixth and final chapter of The Eighth Day reunites the Ashley and Lansing families and divulges the fates of the Ashley children, their mother, and Eustacia Lansing; except for Sophia, they all exemplify the American Dream. Roger marries Félicité Lansing and becomes a famous journalist, Lily becomes a world-renowned singer, Sophia outlives all of her siblings but sadly had to be institutionalized, and Constance travels the world as a suffragette. Beata Ashley moves to Los Angeles, creating a new boarding house and adopting an abandoned deaf child. Eustacia also moves to California and works as a housekeeper. Ultimately, the reader also discovers Lansing's true killer is his son, George, who, in an effort to protect his mother from abuse, shot his father. By the time of this revelation, the murder mystery has become secondary to the intertwining fates of the Ashley and Lansing families.
Critical Analysis
Wilder scholars focus primarily on the author's optimistic view of America and Americans in The Eighth Day. As Wilder began writing The Eighth Day in the 1960s, the United States found itself in a state of turmoil. With such tragic events as the Vietnam War and the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, the Sixties marked the decline of the Puritan ideals on which America had been founded. However, in The Eighth Day Wilder reaffirmed his belief in a Puritan vision of America as a nation chosen by God.2 The title, The Eighth Day, reflects Wilder's conviction as it references the biblical story of the seven-day creation of the world. Accordingly, Wilder begins his novel with Dr. Gillies declaring that the world is in the eighth day of creation when man is left to continue to make progress. The epic scope of Wilder's novel examines the Ashleys, representative of idealized Americans, and the Lansings, representative of the country's disenchanted citizens. The distinction between the two Coaltown families is introduced with a description of John Ashley as industrious and inventive followed by Breckenridge Lansing who appears indolent and unimaginative. The intertwining Ashley and Lansing family sagas challenge and affirm their roles as "anatomies of the fabled American innocence."3 Scholars have also acknowledged John Ashley as a model of the Kierkegaardian "knight of faith."4 Once he has escaped execution, John Ashley begins a pilgrimage to Chile and puts complete faith in himself and God. By the end of the second chapter, Ashley is leading a productive life by contributing to other people's welfare, a sure sign that, indeed, he has regained his faith.5 Wilder's symbolic use of a tapestry contributes to The Eighth Day's faith theme. As Roger inspects the unfinished side of the Deacon's tapestry, he learns that although the significance of his struggle is unclear, there are greater forces at work creating a pattern and overall sense of unity.6 Upon learning of John Ashley's death at sea, the reader realizes that it is not Ashley's death that is significant but the way in which he lived, with honor and humility. While the reader is exposed to both the hopeful and dispiriting elements of American life, scholars believe that Wilder's final message is a positive one: progress can still be made.
Although it would win the National Book Award, public reception of The Eighth Day in 1967 was mixed. While some critics thought Wilder's "plot ambiguous and his theme labyrinthine," others, like Malcolm Cowley, "admired the realistic evocation of a bygone era, and Wilder's thoughtful ruminations on time, history and the American people."7 Those who criticized the novel were generally disconcerted with the seemingly unrealistic view of American life. While these critiques of Wilder's perpetuation of optimism and humanism in The Eighth Day may be grounded in one American reality, Wilder's truth is based on the belief that man has come into the world to learn. As such, the reader sees individuals learning and a culture progressing, ever so slowly, toward a grand vision of America.

Star Dust is one of Lake Tahoe's most famous ride boats. She was used extensively by Fred Kehlet and his family to take the public for rides from their resort at Meeks Bay, CA.
In 1992, Star Dust won the Best of Show award at the Tahoe Yacht Club's Concours d'Elegance for her owner John Wickland III. She was purchased by Tom and Polly Bredt in the fall of 2002 and donated to the Center in 2004.

Éclat de Jasmin香水混合保加利亚玫瑰和广藿香,花香馥郁,是对传统尊贵花香香料的礼赞
一款以高贵之花——埃及茉莉为基调,散发着自然的茉莉芳香。Eclat de Jasmin香水花香馥郁,是对花卉香调的全新诠释。纤小、雅致、乳白的茉莉花,在傍晚时分尽情盛放,释放着浓郁沁人的芳香。茉莉花主调寓意如花般灿烂,其基调则更显温暖感性。正因如此,几百年来,茉莉花在东方被视为爱和魅力的象征。
eclat de jasmin is rated out of 5 by 2.
Rated 5 out of 5 by GoddessDiana from Exotic and sexy I was expecting more jasmine, and since I hadn't tried a tester I had no idea what this would be like. It was a risk throwing several hundred dollars at a perfume. It starts out kind of herby when it goes on, but then the jasmine appears and through the day the scent is lovely. I found myself sniffing my wrist all day. As I say, at first it's kind of off putting for me, but I am glad I purchased it. The overall fragrance is worth it. I also have the peony scent "Prive Suzhou." and could spray that on all day. It's so light and wonderful and smells like spring.
Date published: 2017-02-20
Rated 5 out of 5 by wellred from My Favorite Scent Ever! After pining for this scent every time I went to buy my Armani makeup I finally gave in and bought it. And I'm absolutely delighted with it! It has a true floral scent, without smelling artificial or too sweet. After the top note of jasmine fades away there is a gentle scent that lingers discreetly. It's definitely on the pricey side, but I do feel it is definitely worth it! In Canada they say it is discontinued. Say it isn't so! It took me years to find my signature scent, but I do believe this is it.

text: LONDON, Feb 15 (Reuters) - U.S. Treasuries firmed in Europe on Friday after strong demand at a 30-year bond auction and renewed concerns about the weakness of the euro zone economy increased demand for low-risk assets. The U.S. government sold $16 billion of 30-year bonds at a high yield of 3.180 percent on Thursday, drawing solid demand and sparking a rally in U.S. paper. The auction wraps up a busy week in terms of supply, with debt sales totalling $72 billion. Ultra-long bonds outperformed the rest of the curve on Friday, with the 30-year yield dropping 2.7 basis points to 3.1509 percent, while the benchmark 10-year T-note yield dipped 1.4 bps to 1.9844 percent. T-note yields hit 10-month highs of 2.062 percent earlier this week. "Supply was a concern this week, but now that it is behind us, bonds look in pretty okay shape," said Craig Collins, a trader at Bank of Montreal. He expected yields to continue falling near-term towards 1.9250, around February's lows. Traders said data showing the euro zone economy sliding further than expected into recession was also giving Treasuries a lift. Worries about the region's economy may increase if the euro currency continues to appreciate, hurting exporters' competitiveness. Talk of "currency wars" will feature high on the agenda of a Group of 20 meeting in Moscow. Hosts Russia say the G20 will back the thrust of a G7 text, which reaffirmed a commitment to floating exchange rates.

Jeanne Cavelos – author, editor, and founder of the exceptional Odyssey Writers Workshop – returns to the Big Chair at the Roundtable, bringing her storytelling mojo to the brainstorming of a tale about the discovery of aliens on a near-future Earth… but are they here to help us defend ourselves from a threat beyond the stars or are they the true threat?
Our brainstorming table is set by Guest Writer, Jeff Brackett, whose tale of alien manipulation of the human race and its accidental revelation to the entire planet serves a fine spring board for a brainstorming feast. With co-host Nicholas Fife (who is contributing a tale to the very cool Folklore: The Affliction game), we delve into the tale and discover – beneath the alien conspiracy – a veritable trove of Literary Gold. There's plenty to go around, so come and get yours!
