Hey what's up guys? So, wrapping up the first week of August here and wow. It has been nothing short of frustrating. You guys have also probably noticed the choppy, inconsistent action that we've been seeing.
A real lack of momentum across the broad, which as day traders it makes it extremely difficult for us to pull any sort of significant profits out of the market.
So, yes, I am definitely ending the week here slightly red, but the important thing is, is that I'm able to contain the risk. Containing the risk during these choppy times is extremely important because when the action does pick back up again you definitely don't want to be spending that time digging yourself out of the hole that you created by trying to grind through trades that the action just isn't there.
So, important thing here is to make sure you're able to contain your risk during these times where the market doesn't really have much action going on. So, I want to take a few minutes here, talk a little bit about the trades that I took and just break down the action from the week in today's recap.
All right guys, so let's jump in here and talk a little bit about the action from the week. Some of the trades that I took and just the action in general. So, Monday actually started out really well. We had a really good trade on Twitter. A very straightforward momentum based trade on a macro support break. Looking at the daily chart you can see that there's a very well established ascending support line here with very precise interactions all the way up until we broke it and closed below it just last Friday.
So, what I like about this line again is that it's a very obvious line. The levels are very precise. We interact to the penny each time, and we broke it. So, we broke a longer term well established trend and when that happens, we typically see the action accelerate to that side. So, being that we closed below it on Friday I wanted to check it again Monday morning to see where we were in relation to that line in the pre-market, and sure enough we were sitting just below it all the way through pre-market until the open.
So, I wanted to see what would happen on the open to see if that selling would accelerate, and sure enough as that bell rang, that volume came pouring in and this Twitter really started to sell off. Now, we had room down towards $32.25 and I said alright, I'm going to get in this thing. If we can close down back below the VWAP here and I got short at $33.60. All right? $33.60 I got short, and we got it. All right? We got the continuation in the momentum that we were looking for that we usually see in these types of plays when the action is more consistent and it sold off right away for us. We covered our position down through this move here into that pivot at $32.30 was my last cover. Then the trade did continue for the better part of the day here into the afternoon, so you could've easily caught the VWAP retest and fail or the retest of the pivot from the underside and still got a very nice trade.
Now, I didn't continue with the trade because my plan was to cover the position at this pivot and typically when my plan plays out I am done trading for the day. Doesn't mean there's no more trades to be had, it just means that my plan played out and I typically try to stay to plan as much as possible. So, Twitter was really great action. Great volume. Great technical breakdown. Great momentum. Just all around a great trade and it's reflective of the action that we normally see in a much more consistent market, but again summertime here tends to be a little bit tougher to trade, a little bit more choppy altogether. But we were able to pull a nice win on Twitter so that started off the week really nice.
Then we moved into Tuesday. All right? We had Shop on the watch list on Tuesday. There was a decent look on this thing if it started to break down below this support level here that it was sitting at right around $136.60. So, if you look at this level $136.60 you've got a very well defined complex trend line here, moves its way through, right, moves its way through here. Bunch of interactions on the way up. You get back above the trend line. You sell down back through. Okay? This is important.
When you sell back through that trend line, look at the volume that you get. Okay? Volume through the trigger means that's a valid point of support of resistance. All right? We retest it again, look at the volume as you come into that level. Right? It's a big retest, not nearly as big as this volume over here but relatively speaking it is more volume that you see in days past, that's because you're testing a resistance level.
Same thing in through over here. You're definitely testing it to rejecting that level. Then that line came into this $136 level where it correlated with this $136.60 pivot. So, I like this because it was breaking this complex line. It was breaking this pivot. There was a straight shot down to roughly the 200 day moving average, which on Tuesday was around $129. So, we had about six or seven points. It doesn't look like much room here but when you dial into the five minute it definitely had some room to fade. I was liking that if it started to break down out of the open to get short, it'd capture a quick four or five points down to that 200 day and that other trend line that came into play.
Now, what happened was is Shop opened and the volume was anemic. Right? There was nothing. It was veery light. There was just nothing there worthwhile to try to size up into a position because this stock can really whip around and it makes it really tough to size into a position. So, I actually didn't even trade this. I sat tight and didn't trade the entire day, just because the action was choppy. You can see this thing just kind of chopped around. It really didn't do too much. That's typical of this action that we're seeing during the summer months. You know, it's okay to sit tight definitely and you don't want to get whipsawed out on these names and that's what I was talking about of containing the risk.
If you can contain the risk you'll be much better off when the action does return. So, yeah, this whipsawed around a couple points in each direction but not really tradable. Just not really tradable to get a momentum trade. All right? So, that was Shop. I stayed away from that one. Pretty much as soon as the market opened I could see the price action was no good, so I said all right guys, we're just going to sit tight on this one. Not going to touch it. We switched our focus to LL, which actually had a decent set up coming into the open. But again, just chopped out. Price action was no good. Didn't hold the level so we called it a day and said all right, we're not going to trade 'cause these two trades are not playing out.
So, if you look on LL here below $19.40 you had a nice pivot at $19.40, which was right here. This recent pivot low. It opened up down towards $17.30. So, it had some news out on it and we were looking for this thing to fade this pocket all the way down to $17.30. It actually had a decent look coming into the open of the market. If you look at it from the pre-market, this is the type of set up that we look for. This pre-market drift. All right? We got this pre-market drift, we were below the VWAP, below the 20 and we were right below the pivot coming into the open. Typically what we see on these is that the action is barish enough, the momentum is there, we'll see them open up and sell through the pocket. That's where we can take a trade, but since it's choppy, inconsistent action right now you can see the stocks just chop around. They're whipsawing around. It's making it really difficult to get a proper entry and continuation.
So, we didn't trade that 'cause the price action was no good. You could see it in the level too, see it in the time and sales and I just decided to say you know what, it's not worth trading this stuff. We're going to sit tight and wait for something better. All right? So, that was Tuesday. No trades.
Wednesday we had Apple, which started to look like it was going to play out for us and we stopped. All right? So, Apple gap up on earnings. Started to reject. This had a major ascending resistance line here. You can see, started back here in May of '17. Nice line up through here and in the pre-market of Wednesday you could see it rejected it quite nicely twice. All right? So, if you look at this it started to come up here just short of the line, pulled back hard. Up again, tested it, pulled back hard right to the open. Hard sell on the open and we had this ascending support line in the pre-market as well as this pivot. I said I'm not interested in getting short in this thing until at least it breaks through this first ascending support, potentially down here depending what the action looks like. But it at least has to break down through the VWAP and 20 and through this ascending support.
So, what happened was is as the market opened, we sold off pretty quickly. Profit taking most likely here what happened, we got bought back up, tested the VWAP and 20, we sold again. Now, I started to like this 'cause we were making lower highs. We sold below the VWAP and the 20. We closed below this ascending support trend line, so I sat tight for a few minutes and I was watching the price action here. We kept retesting this ascending support trend line and we started to pull away from it and I got short at $198.10.
Now, we just kind of hovered around $198. We weren't really doing much and when that happens you're not getting that continuation, you need to be on high alert. So, I said I was going to keep a very tight stop on this. It either goes or it doesn't, starts to break down or I'm out. Sure enough it held that $198, got bought right back up. I stopped at $198.30. A very, very tight stop for me. Only $0.20, which is very, very tight. Usually my stops are outside of $0.50, but this was one of those trades that it either goes or it doesn't. We're looking for the momentum and it just didn't work.
So, I'm okay with the trade. It's just one of those ones that didn't work. The best thing to do is to go back and ask yourself would you have taken that trade again? If the answer is no, then you need to figure out what happened or why'd you take it. If the answer is yes, then you're probably just … Took a trade that didn't work. Right? Not all trades work. This one didn't work. I liked the fact that it broke down, confirmed it was weak here out at the open, broke the ascending support, tested the ascending support and the spy was initially in this direction. Started to look a little bit weak, so we had some alignment there and I tried to take advantage of that and it just didn't work.
All right? So, the next one I switched to we had on the watch, this was Baidu. Baidu had a really interesting look here with this trend line and I'll show you what we were looking at. If you look at the daily chart, very nice ascending support line here. All right? Ascending support on the way up. Nice interaction here, here, and starting down here. We were breaking it on Wednesday and what I liked about it is that if we could get below it coming into the open we had a nice pocket down here near $213, $213.50.
Unfortunately out at the open it opened above and when it opens above like this, I don't touch it until it comes back below or it starts to at least get back below the VWAP and the 20. Now, we didn't trade this in the morning 'cause I was dealing with Apple. I was just watching it on the monitor and we started to fail this $236.50 level so I said all right, if we can sell below VWAP here I'm going to try it 'cause it failed the pop and let's see if we can get it to break down to pocket.
Now, I got short right here at $233.50 as we were breaking down through VWAP. I was looking for the continuation back towards the lows. Now, what happened was I was being a little bit more conservative than usual because I stopped on Apple. Typically when the first trade is stopped I'm a little bit more conservative but I will take another stab at something else if it sets up. Baidu looked like it was going to set up here quite nicely. It came back to retest, the VWAP and the 20. Looked good. Retest, retest. Started to look like it was going to fail again, and all of a sudden we got this quick pop. I stopped. I stopped for a point at $234.50.
Now, the unfortunate part of it is, as soon as I stopped it turned around and sold off and did exactly what I wanted it to do and sold off for three or four points here to the downside. Would've been a quick, easy trade. Would've been a nice day. Instead I got chopped out on that. So, Wednesday was a day where I got chopped out, I got stopped twice. Again, the losses weren't big it's just trying to navigate this choppy action. You have to take stabs at stuff when the set ups are there or else you'll never realize the win. Would I have taken this trade again? This one's a little bit more questionable because I probably should've waited til it got back below the trend line but I was trying to anticipate the break down here and seeing if we could get this selling to start. I was just a little bit early on the entry.
So, Wednesday, again, kind of choppy., whipsaw action. Really not much there and got chopped out and stopped twice. Now, Thursday, yesterday there was some decent action going on obviously with Apple and Tesla. All right? We had Tesla on watch, I'll talk a little bit about that one. Tesla on watch above the EPS high, which was over here. The earnings release high, which was around $335.75. Now, the issue with this one was it chopped out sideways for the whole morning and then literally at 12:00, lunch hour, is when the moves started to happen. I don't trade during lunch hour so I don't consider this a miss for me, 'cause it's not within my plan but you can see, once it got up above that earnings per share high, the release high, it really started to run. So, $335 up to $344, quick 10 points or so and then continuing up towards $350 to end the day. Nice momentum there, it just didn't happen during the normal times we see momentum.
Normally we see all the momentum in the first hour or hour and a half and then it goes choppy, flat, sideways for lunch time. We saw the exact opposite here on Tesla, which again, not really expecting it, which again, makes it difficult for navigating the market. All right? So, that was Tesla. Apple just straight moonshot here yesterday. I just didn't trade this thing. I just wanted to sit tight with the action I'd been seeing. I just wasn't feeling like trading that much, especially [inaudible 00:14:50] choppy price action. You know, Apple made a really nice move. I'm glad for all those guys in our room that were able to take advantage of it. Nice continuation play here to the upside but just wasn't for me. I wanted to sit tight and wait for a different type of trade.
You know, I ended up looking at MGM. MGM had a really nice set up here coming into the open but we didn't get the move that we wanted. Again, choppy sideways price action on the names here in the first hour or so. Looking at the daily on MGM, really, really nice well defined pocket. All right? Look at $27 right here. Huge pivot in through this level. Dropped straight down to this very nice pivot in through $25 ish. Just about $25. Now, what I liked about this one was that MGM usually are very liquid stock. Good volume. Trades relatively well. If you were coming into the market open right here, drifting back below the VWAP and 20, back below the pivot. Started to retest and then as soon as the market opened it got bought up and I said you know what? Just going to sit here and not going to touch it. I don't really want to get involved with the choppy sideways price action.
So, again, just action you gotta really be patient and navigate around. The action is definitely few and far between but there are trades out there, you just have to keep an eye on everything that's going on and have a plan. All right? If you just kind of trade everything that moves and trading all throughout the day, you're going to find yourself probably digging a hole. In the long term it doesn't work. All right? So, you have to have a plan. My plan has always been trade the first hour, hour and a half. If nothing happens, you're done because I know that in the long term, in the first hour, hour and a half, that's where all the action is. That's where the momentum is. That's where the volume is. That's where the money's made. So, if you miss a day or two where the action happens like Tesla right at lunch time, you can't beat yourself up over it because 90% of the time the action's going to happen in this first hour and it's going to go flat sideways for lunch time.
So, it's part of the market. You can't hit every trade but it's important to have a plan to keep you from getting too far in the red during these times of inconsistency. So, that's the week guys. That wraps it up. I'm ending slightly red but we're back at it next week. We'll look for another big trade or two like we had on Amazon last Friday and put us right back in the driver's seat. So, it's okay. We'll get back at it next week. Everyone have a great weekend.
Oh hey, I didn't see you there. I was just working on the dream board for my next home run trade. Hopefully it comes soon. Until then, make sure you subscribe to get email alerts any time I go live or upload new videos. Until then, happy surfing.

Watch: Here's Your First Look At What's Going On In 'Riverdale' In 2018
ICYMI, Riverdale's mid-season finale ~supposedly~ revealed the identity of the Black Hood, and even though we're mildly unsatisfied with the results, we can't wait for the show to get back on our screens ASAP.
So whilst we wait for the show to return next year, we'll just have to be satisfied in the meantime with a new promo clip that shows that there will be plenty more drama to come in Riverdale in 2018.
The promo not only teases South Side High's closure, but also reveals that the Serpents will be joining their sworn North Side enemies at Riverdale High. Naturally, this means drama for Jughead who can be seen getting into a fist fight with the Riverdale High Bulldogs.
The trailer also reveals that we'll finally be introduced to Betty's long-lost brother Chic, with a totally emosh Alice Cooper telling Betty in the promo that she "wants to see [her] son."
The anticipation is low-key killing us, and we can't bloody wait for Riverdale's return next year!
Watch the brand new promo below.

Adult Education February 2019
The Future of the Church
On the four Sundays of February Father Edmund Hussey will lead discussions of some topics of interest for the future of the Church. These discussions will not give detailed predictions of the future but will provide some background and educated guesses. These programs will be between the Masses on Sunday mornings and will begin at 9:30 a.m., in the Parish Hall.
February 3: Bishops in the Future Church
On the first Sunday of February Father Hussey will lead a discussion about the leadership role of bishops in the Future Church. In the Tridentine era of the Church the bishops were more the administrators of large dioceses than a pastoral presence for their people. They usually appeared only on special occasions garbed in the impressive regalia and symbols of their office. Then the Second Vatican Council issued a decree about bishops that emphasized their pastoral ministry in the Church. Since the Council, the bishops' failure to deal effectively with the sex abuse scandals has weakened their prestige and their leadership role in the Church.
February 10: Women in the Future Church
The day of women's silent partnership in the Church is over. A new day has dawned for them and, therefore, for the entire Church. Nevertheless the issue is not an easy one. The place of women in the Church today, has been a matter of intense discussion and often of heated dispute.
February 17: Immigrants and Strangers in the Future Church
Moses said to the people of Israel: "You shall therefore love the stranger for you were once strangers in the land of Egypt." This line reminds us that we are all immigrants and that we should love the immigrants in our midst. In the Last Judgment scene in the Gospel of Matthew Jesus will say to the Just at the end of time: "I was a stranger and you welcomed me." It is, therefore, somewhat ironic that our immigrant nation has become so conflicted about immigration today.
February 24: Welcome in the Future Church
On the fourth and final Sunday of our February Adult Education Program Father Hussey will discuss the transition from the Tridentine image of the Church as a Perfect Society to the Post-Vatican II image of the Church as a Pilgrim People, which supports Pope Francis' hope that we will always be a welcoming Church, not a judgmental Church.

Only the lonely
Sometimes we all feel lonely. Having a disease/intolerance/allergy will do that to you. I mean, people have bouts of loneliness as it as but having a condition can make that worse.
Let me preface this by saying that my friends are family are amazing!
But sometimes you feel deep down alone. Everyone else is talking Ho-Hos and Nutter Butters and you are thinking "can I make that gluten free?" Because not being able to grab those items makes you different. You can't just go through the drive through because they have nothing you can eat. You can't just go to a restaurant without calling ahead and you always have a bunch of food along with you "just in case".
Let's face it, being different is ok but constantly saying "I can't have that" or "I can't eat that" gets old.
It leaves you feeling lonely. So lonely.
What do you do about it? I love the fact that my friends and family watch out for me but how do you feel with that feeling of being different?

Love is a walk with a good friend. Love is a family group text celebrating the success of someone dear to you. Love is a gentle hug to someone in your community just because. These are some of the life moments to treasure. Of course, there are many more. The foods we eat each and every day greatly impact the quality of our health, the quality of our life. Choose foods that nurture and heal and still give your tastebuds that "wow, this tastes awesome" appeal.
One of the most popular "wow" foods in February is chocolate. Each year, nearly 400 million dollars is spent on some form of chocolate for Valentine's Day. Candies, truffles, candy bars… chocolate is the feel-good food for so many occasions and rightly so. Chocolate stimulates the brain through its high concentration of flavonoids and it is rich in antioxidants. Dark chocolate is linked to reduced blood pressure and regulating blood sugar which also makes it ideal for February as this is month for heart health awareness.
Brownies make for a yummy "chocolate fix" but wouldn't it be even better if the brownies were made with healing, nutritious ingredients? These Beauty Boosting Brownies deliver on flavor and health. Major health influencers in this recipe: anti-cancer phytochemicals in purple sweet potatoes, cocoa powder, anti-viral properties in coconut and manuka honey, brain boosting walnuts. Bonus: each of these ingredients plays a role in glowing skin.
Beauty-Boosting Brownies
(Makes 3 dozen)
2 medium purple sweet potatoes
¼ cup plus ½ tablespoon coconut butter
2 eggs
1/3 cup Manuka honey
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
Fine zest of one medium orange
3 tablespoons coconut flour
3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
¼ teaspoon sea salt
½ cup chopped walnuts
Directions: Preheat oven to 400*F. Using a vegetable peeler, peel sweet potatoes, cut into 1-inch chunks, place on a parchment paper lined baking sheet and roast in oven for 45 minutes or until fork tender. Set aside to cool.
Reduce heat to 375 degrees F. Coat a 9 x 13-inch baking dish with ½ tablespoon coconut butter. In a standing mixer using whisk attachment or using a handheld mixer with ingredients in a medium mixing bowl, mix together eggs, honey, vanilla and orange zest.
In a separate medium mixing bowl, whisk together coconut flour, cocoa powder and sea salt.
Add roasted sweet potatoes to egg mixture and mix until mostly smooth. Add coconut flour mixture and mix until well blended. Stir in walnuts and spread into prepared baking dish. Bake for 25-35 minutes or until toothpick inserted comes out clean. Transfer to wire rack to cool. Slice into 36 squares, dust with additional cocoa powder when serving.

"A piece of legislation known as the Equality Act is expected to be introduced soon by House Democrats. The bill's provisions add the categories of 'sexual orientation' and 'gender identity' to the list of protected classes in the 1964 Civil Rights Act." - TGC
There are 3 Comments
This type of act was enacted
This type of act was enacted in the UK and it appeared that they carved out religious liberty fairly well. Am I missing something here?
2010 Equality Act for Religious Organizations
I'm not so sure UK is doing so well on this. These things happen very slowly. It's not identical legislation--nothing in the US and UK could be--but in UK, there is a growing oppression of traditional Christian views. It will happen faster there because they don't have quite as strong a tradition of free speech as we do here.
As one example, the UK concept of "hate crime" is much broader than here. You can be convicted of a hate crime when all you did was, literally, say something (from what I've seen on this, it's like a civil fine you have to pay). So far, in the U.S. you have to commit a garden variety crime with a hate/bias motive--and we call that a hate crime, which gets you tougher sentencing (and lots more media attention!)
Anyway, all that to say that steps in the wrong direction are steps in the wrong direction, and it's always hard to tell for sure how large the consequences might turn out to be.
Edit to add: Just saw this in the news this morning... UK Judge who had apparently had the nerve to say kids should have a mom and a dad. But at least he still has legal recourse to try to sort it out.
Views expressed are always my own and not my employer's, my church's, my family's, my neighbors', or my pets'. The house plants have authorized me to speak for them, however, and they always agree with me.
David, my thought is that whatever the situation is in England (and I've heard some horror stories from there as well), it seems that too many are wont to use the protections already in existence (Masterpiece Cake Shop, etc..) as a bludgeon against religious conservatives. One would infer that if these protections are expanded, the beatings will only increase.

There are many reasons to get a catering service for your wedding, one of which is obviously having delicious food. Feeding your guests is an essential part of a wedding, but not having to worry about the hassle of doing the catering yourself is beneficial, especially on your wedding day. It is all about finding a caterer who will handle your magical day with grace and professionalism. Here are three ways to choose the best caterer for your wedding.
Wedding Size
The size of your wedding will have a significant impact on what type of food you want your guests to enjoy. For a larger scale wedding, having a sit-down dinner is a good idea so all your guests can enjoy quality time with each other. This means that a seating chart is crucial to determine the best matches for each table — you can't sit people who don't know each other together. For small weddings, finger-foods or buffet-style are the best options to allow guests to mingle amongst each other while enjoying tasty food!
Food and Religious Restrictions
Many people have food restrictions, especially if they are religious, so it is important to have a variety of items on the menu. Many catering companies offer taste-testing of the suggested menu to make sure you are serving exactly what you want. If you can provide the chefs with a list of food restrictions and suggestions for your big day, they will be more than happy to accommodate. As trained culinary professionals, they will be able to find the most suitable dish for each guest. Whether you are pescatarian, vegetarian, vegan or lactose intolerant, it has never been so easy to find an accommodating catering company!
Reliability of the Catering Company
Doing initial research on the catering company is essential. Reading online reviews will give you an insight into the professionalism and quality of the food of the company. Ask around to see if anyone has had any previous experience with caterers. If someone you trust has had a good experience, why not try them out? You can bring external caterers or trust the St. Elias exclusive professional catering service to wow you and your guests with a gorgeous menu!
Deciding on who will cater your wedding can be a tough job, but by using these steps as guidance will make the process a lot smoother. St. Elias Centre provides premium in-house catering perfect for your wedding, no matter the culture or the number of guests! Contact us here for a quote.

I'm intimately familiar with that stretch of river, but just curious about current (no pun intended) conditions. It's been ridiculously wet and cool where I've been this summer in Appalachia, but I understand it's a teensy bit different in the Ozarks. Just want to make sure I'm not gonna be fishing over a ridiculously low river/stressed fish, basically. I can pretty much handle it from there. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The vulnerable group development (VGD) programme is the largest social safety net programme of the Government of Bangladesh aims to increasing the earning potential and social empowerment of the most disadvantaged rural women. During a 24 months cycle, wheat/rice is provided to give women a temporary break from the struggle to find food and to allow them to participate in training programs, and attend courses focused on market based income generating activities, provision of savings and credit, and functional education (health, nutrition, literacy, etc). These activities have been successful in improving food security of the households headed by widowed, divorced, separated/abandoned women and women with disabled husbands. It also helps to improve the nutritional status of malnourished women and children.
Currently about 750,000 women participants (about 3.75 million beneficiaries) from ultra-poor households receive a monthly food ration combined with a package of development services. The development package includes life skills and income generating skills training as well as a personal savings programme and access to micro-credit/NGO membership. There are two different forms of VGD: Income Generating Vulnerable Group Development (IGVGD) and Food Security Vulnerable Group Development (FSVGD). IGVGD participants are provided with a monthly food ration of 30 kilograms of wheat/rice or 25 kilograms of fortified flour (atta)
BLF shall aim to improve the socio economic status of VGD women and to socially empower them through training on awareness rising, provision of training on IGAs, provision of credit and other support services during and beyond the food assistance period in Feni District.

Heartland Recreational Vehicles LLC, Elkhart, Ind., was founded in 2003 by a quintet of RV veterans. Their philosophy is lower numbers mean a better market and better dealers. That was one of the reasons why all of them left their previous companies to bring Heartland RV to the public.
The first product created by Heartland was a high-end fifth wheel. The LANDMARK which was aimed at extended-stay RVers who spend a lot of time in their coaches at one location was picked to create first on purpose because it was going to be the hardest to build and they wanted to prove that they could do it and do it right.
In 2006, Heartland broke ground on a new 110,000 sq. ft. production facility with a new corporate office structure attached. By the spring of 2006, Heartland had moved into the Top Ten 5th wheel manufacturers, and by the end of the year were solidly #8 with their eyes toward the #5 spot. Heartland was again poised for growth and launched the BIG COUNTRY 5th wheel and RAZOR toy hauler.

Maggie's Farm
We are a commune of inquiring, skeptical, politically centrist, capitalist, anglophile, traditionalist New England Yankee humans, humanoids, and animals with many interests beyond and above politics. Each of us has had a high-school education (or GED), but all had ADD so didn't pay attention very well, especially the dogs. Each one of us does "try my best to be just like I am," and none of us enjoys working for others, including for Maggie, from whom we receive neither a nickel nor a dime. Freedom from nags, cranks, government, do-gooders, control-freaks and idiots is all that we ask for.

Saturday Verse: Yeats
No Second Troy
Why should I blame her that she filled my days

Yeats is one of those few poets who, even when you outgrow most of his work, it still lingers delightfully in the mind. There are times when I reach back to one of his poems for a quote that offers a bit of wisdom or joy. Thanks for a nice Saturday post, BD.
Fundamental difference between east & west: East says Helen should ugly herself, to save Troy. West says, grow up, and if you can't, then screw Troy, it ain't worth saving.
Yeats is my favorite. However, today while reading the above verse and looking down on a garden bathed in sunlight and shadow, I am reminded of this from Wordsworth--enjoy:
Though nothing can bring back the hour
Of splendour in the grass, of glory in the flower;
We will grieve not, rather find
Strength in what remains behind;
In the primal sympathy
Which having been must ever be;
In the soothing thoughts that spring
Out of human suffering;
In the faith that looks through death,
In years that bring the philosophic mind.
We must be on a roll today...as I, too, love this poem.
Though as I age more quickly, it seems, with each passing day the "...years that bring the philosophic mind," are like the years where I fight off remorse, regret, and disbelief at my own stupidities with increased does of faith and hope and love.
Wordsworth, however, wrote some very fine, now seemingly, underappreciated poetry.
Of faith, hope, and charity
--the greatest of these is . . .
And, from my collection of Yeats' favorites:
The Stolen Child
WHERE dips the rocky highland
Of Sleuth Wood in the lake,
There lies a leafy island
Where flapping herons wake
The drowsy water-rats;
There we've hid our faery vats,
Full of berries
And of reddest stolen cherries.
Come away, O human child!
To the waters and the wild
With a faery, hand in hand,
For the world's more full of weeping than you
can understand.
Where the wave of moonlight glosses
The dim grey sands with light,
Far off by furthest Rosses
We foot it all the night,
Weaving olden dances,
Mingling hands and mingling glances
Till the moon has taken flight;
To and fro we leap
And chase the frothy bubbles,
While the world is full of troubles
And is anxious in its sleep.
Come away, O human child!
To the waters and the wild
With a faery, hand in hand,
For the world's more full of weeping than you
can understand.
Where the wandering water gushes
From the hills above Glen-Car,.
In pools among the rushes
That scarce could bathe a star,
We seek for slumbering trout
And whispering in their ears
Give them unquiet dreams;
Leaning softly out
From ferns that drop their tears
Over the young streams.
Come away, O human child!
To to waters and the wild
With a faery, hand in hand,
For to world's more full of weeping than you
can understand.
Away with us he's going,
The solemn-eyed:
He'll hear no more the lowing
Of the calves on the warm hillside
Or the kettle on the hob
Sing peace into his breast,
Or see the brown mice bob
Round and round the oatmeal-chest.
For he comes, the human child,
To the waters and the wild
With a faery, hand in hand,
from a world more full of weeping than you
can understand.
Lots of Yeats fans here. And I was planning on posting a Rilke today.
In looking o�er my hot, verdant yard, seeing the birds wing past limbs that wave to and from seemingly in a dazed summer trance-dance but maybe in futile warning as we give scarce notice out of self-obsession or indulgence of easy, psychotic realities, what�s brought to my mind is O.N.�s sentiment that expresses both man�s basest fear and most fervent wish:
�I�ve never seen an abominable snowman,
I�m hoping not to see one,
I�m also hoping, if I do,
That it will be a wee one.�
My hot verdant yard needs mowing badly. However, Texas has decided to show soldarity with Bangladesh by having its first Monsoon Season ever.
Please don't drown in Third World sympathy. Let Walt handle the leaves of grass.
Wonderful to read poetry so well chosen. I second John Hetman's observation about Yeats--he sticks with one and offers wisdom besides his romanticism.
Ok, ok. This one is for Bird Dog, Buddy, Habu, and The Barrister. Well, now that I think about it --it is for some of the gals on this farm also! ;-)
I have always felt this one should have come from Mark Twain rather than Poe, but here it is anyway:
ELDORADO � Edgar Allan Poe
Gaily bedight,
A gallant knight,
In sunshine and in shadow,
Had journeyed long,
Singing a song,
In search of Eldorado.
But he grew old-
This knight so bold-
And o'er his heart a shadow
Fell as he found
No spot of ground
That looked like Eldorado.
And, as his strength
Failed him at length,
He met a pilgrim shadow-
"Shadow," said he,
"Where can it be-
This land of Eldorado?"
"Over the Mountains
Of the Moon,
Down the Valley of the Shadow,
Ride, boldly ride,"
The shade replied-
"If you seek for Eldorado!"
These are lovely poems and fine comments. May I submit some lines of one of my favorites by Thomas Gray:
The curfew tolls the knell of parting day,
The lowing herd winds slowly o'er the lea,
The ploughman homeward plods his weary way,
And leaves the world to darkness and to me.
Now fades the glimmering landscape on the sight,
And all the air a solemn stillness holds,
Save where the beetle wheels his droning flight,
And drowsy tinklings lull the distant folds:
Save that from yonder ivy-mantled tower
The moping owl does to the moon complain
Of such as, wandering near her secret bower,
Molest her ancient solitary reign.
From: "ELEGY WRITTEN IN A COUNTRY CHURCH-YARD"
This poem amuses me. I don't think Yeats was quite as keen on Maud's nationalist rhetoric in 1916 as he was in 1912 (when he wrote the poem).
Although somewhat flattered by Yeats' attention, Maud Gonne never reciprocated his passion. Lucky for Yeats that she didn't as she represented an instant literary "state of mind" for him, a persistent mental & emotional archetype, that propelled his work for many years.
I adore Yeats. I highly recommend R. F. Foster's two volume biography of Yeats: "A Life - The Apprentice Mage" vol. 1 & "A Life -The Arch Poet" vol 2..
Lesley: Is this what you are referring to?
Let Them Alone
If God has been good enough to give you a poet
Then listen to him. But for God's sake let him alone until he is dead;
no prizes, no ceremony,
They kill the man. A poet is one who listens
To nature and his own heart; and if the noise of the world grows up
around him, and if he is tough enough,
He can shake off his enemies, but not his friends.
That is what withered Wordsworth and muffled Tennyson, and would have
killed Keats; that is what makes
Hemingway play the fool and Faulkner forget his art.
Robinson Jeffers
Let them/ us alone:
"I will arise and go now, and go to Innisfree,
And a small cabin build there, of clay and wattles made;
Nine bean rows will I have there, a hive for the honey bee,
And live alone in the bee-loud glade.
And I shall have some peace there, for peace comes dropping slow,
Dropping from the veils of the morning to where the cricket sings;
There midnight 's all a-glimmer, and noon a purple glow,
And evening full of the linnet's wings.
I will arise and go now, for always night and day
I hear lake water lapping with low sounds by the shore;
While I stand on the roadway, or on the pavements gray,
I hear it in the deep heart's core." (Yeats)
Lovely selections all around. The Poe raised goose bumps--always a sign one is paying attention.
Apple Pie - been thinking about "Let Them Alone"
For me, I find the more I know about Yeats' life, his friends, his family, Ireland's history, etc. the more meaningful his body of work becomes. I've chased him all over Ireland, going to the places he lived and worked, standing in his tower, observing wild swans at Coole Park, meandering through the seven woods, pounding the pavement in Dublin. As we were taught in our lit crit courses, the sociological approach is only one way to interpret literature. However, in Yeats' case, some much of what he had to say was autobiographical/sociological.
Nevertheless, his final poem, stands (formalist approach) on its own...
Politics 1939
('In our time the destiny of man presents its meaning in political terms.' Thomas Mann)
How can I, that girl standing there,
My attention fix
On Roman or on Russian
Or on Spanish politics,
Yet here's a travelled man that knows
What he talks about,
And there's a politician
That has both read and thought,
And maybe what they say is true
Of war and war's alarms,
But O that I were young again
And held her in my arms.
BTW My fantasy
A BBC series, with the quality of Brideshead Revisited, youngerish Yeats played by Daniel Day Lewis, olderish Yeats played by Peter O'Toole. Vanessa Redgrave would have been a perfect Maud Gonne twenty years prior. Damn.
Well it's not on DVD, but you have it well in your mind. And there, it's all yours. Start writing a script, maybe magic will take you over. Could happen. Has happened.
Glendaloch--sunup 1976. YOu could hear them still. No fences, no ticket gates; just park the car get out and start to walk up the narrow little valley where a few kept the best alive for all. Twilight stillness--no one else waiting for the sun.
Would love to have a story of Yeats' life: Yes, Vanessa would have been wonderful--but, I think perhaps Nicole Kidman could do it--would like it to be a gal with little bigger bones. As for Daniel Day Lewis--yes, he is a fine actor and would not be a bad choice--but not my first pick--don't know who would be though.
The angels are stooping
Above your bed;
They weary of trooping
With the whimpering of the dead.
God's laughing in Heaven
To see you so good;
The Sailing Seven
Are gay with his mood.
I sigh that kiss you,
For I must own
That I shall miss you
When you have grown.
Glendalough--sunup 1976. No fences, no ticket gates; just park the car get out and start to walk up the narrow little valley where a few kept the best alive for all. I could hear them still. Glowing stillness--no one else waiting for the sun.
Would love to have a story of Yeats' life: Yes, Vanessa would have been wonderful--but, I think perhaps Nicole Kidman could do it--would like it to be a gal with little bigger bones though. As for Daniel Day Lewis--yes, he is a fine actor and would not be a bad choice--but not my first pick--don't know who would be though.

Those last two lines will make a lump in your throat if you're not quick to remember that it would be terrible if they never did grow up.
but still--sad.
Buddy - thanks for the encouragement. I spent the evening thinking about a screen play. A daunting task, indeed. No wonder no one has yet undertaken it because it would have to be perfect: every word, every setting, every character, every voice in order to do justice to the man. T. S. Eliot said that Yeats was one of those few poets whose history is the history of their own time, who are part of the consciousness of an age which cannot be understood without them. His life was epic.
Ah, the fascination of what's difficult.
JH Thank you for the reminding me of Gray. I spent a lovely hour with him yesterday!
So, where is it that we shall go to? Or, rther is it always that we seek to define quality as Pirsig does, or do we seek to be next to that which I can only define as quiet elegance as we do with Yeats? While we can certainly point to quality, or development standards--how is it that we define that subtle whisper of elegance? Is it the same in each heart? Does every eye recognize it as that something that is present, yet not?
I am pleased and surprised by how much pleasure the Saturday Verses generate. I have to confess that most of the pleasure is mine: finding a weekly selection brings me back to all of my old poet friends - which is why I do it. I do try to stay away from the poems that everyone knows, but what does that mean these days.
Oh, but some of them--those that once were so common--now bring comfort to older hearts!
I try not to be sophomoric, but my own education is lacking in this area!
AP is right. Come upon the same poem (or any artwork, really) 20 years later and it's a whole different animal.

School Zones
Thomas Jones gets to work every morning at eight, rain or shine. He has a job to do. With some stops here and there, Jones makes sure students get to school safely.
"I see a lot of traffic here and people come through and run the red lights," said Thomas Jones.
Jones is just one of the many crossing guards that make sure your child arrives safely, but they can't do it alone. That's where school zones come in.
"This is an area where children have no knowledge of the roadway," said Tim Moriarity of Columbia Police.
While some schools are tucked away into neighborhoods, others are located on busy streets. For instance, Grant Elementary sits on Broadway making traffic that much heavier and the need for school zone enforcement that much more important. But pay attention because each school zone is different.
Columbia has two types of school zones. One runs from an hour before school to an hour after. The other type has a flashing signal which is enforced only during drop off and pick up hours.
With different rules, sometimes it can be tricky to know what zone you're in. Moriarty says making them all one type would be a bad idea.
"I would like to have them all the same so there's no deviation so everybody knows what the limit is," he said. "The reason I don't accept that argument is that every neighborhood, every school district is different."
It's not just the zones that are different. The warnings are different too.
Flashing lights, speed bumps and speed monitoring signs are just a couple ways drivers are told they should slow down.
Grant has the speed monitoring sign but on a busy road like Broadway cars still go over the limit.
"They help a little bit but not that much," said Jones. "It's hard for cars to go 20 miles an hour off the hill."
With businesses shooting up around Paxton Keeley in west Columbia, the signs and speed bump there help remind drivers where they are.
"What we find is people often cut through Park Deville to avoid the big intersection of Fairview and Broadway," said Principle of Paxton Keeley Elaine Hassemer.
Hassemer is thankful for the speed bump, but wouldn't mind a speed sign or two.
"Anytime that you can put that speed up and you can make people aware of how fast they're going, it just causes them to think and maybe slow down and be a little bit more careful while driving," said Moritary.
Moriarty just wants drivers to remember one thing.
"A speed limit is just that; it's a speed limit, not a speed minimum."
Jones has an idea for all those school zone speeders as well.
"I think they should come out and watch and give all those speeders tickets, and then donate that money to the schools," Jones said.
If you drive through a school zone everyday and are not sure which type it is check out the interactive map. Just click on the link to the left.

31 Aug Learning how to live in the moment
Today is the first day of the rest of your life…
Blah, blah, blah…boring, right? What if you put a spin on it? What if…today was just today? This is not glib question, but really staying in just today – just for today.
How difficult is it to leave yesterday behind and not bring tomorrow into your thoughts or actions? This may seem difficult but just takes practice. First create a vision of what you want your life to be like then allow the "Law of Attraction" to do its magic. Doing this keeps me in the present moment. You don't have to be perfect at it but you can get back there quickly when you go off the tracks.
I too have a vision of what I want my life to look like when I am "there". But staying in today means not only believing that I WILL get "there" but that I am living it already – TODAY. That means that I state everything for my future in the present tense and stay there, not thinking "it's not happening fast enough" or "it's not going to happen ever!"
"How can I do this?" you ask yourself? Faith and presence…and some footwork of course. When you believe and state anything in the present as if it is already done, the Universe will conspire to set things in motion for it to BE true. So in the morning you start by stating what you want in the present.
Something like, "I live an abundant life in every way helping others." Only you know what that abundant life means. Take several deep, long breaths and in your minds eye see it in action. Does it mean you live in a different home? Traveling more? Drive a different car? Have a specific amount in your bank account/accounts? Paint a clear and vivid picture and add emotions and smells if you can to build a huge vision.
The only thing left to do is set your intentions for the day. What you can do today to pull you into that vision, then let go and start moving. Know that Being your best self and Doing the next right thing will create the life you want and miracles happen. Enjoy each moment of your day and each connection within it because you ARE living your envisioned life! Today. Now!
When you wander off in your head, going into the worry or "what if's", gently bring yourself back and breathe in your moment. Listen to the sounds around you and feel your body in that moment. Notice your shoulders relax and your muscles loosen.
Now everything is right how it is at this moment and start moving again. If what you were doing isn't getting you closer to where you envision yourself to be, do something else. No matter where you are at this moment, you can move forward from it.
Today really is just today – and so is every day.
Why not live it perfectly in Peace, Faith and Presence.
Essential oils that help you live in the moment are grounding oils (tree oils are great):
Pine, Northern Lights Black Spruce, Cypress, Frankincense.

Waste Facilities on Protected Waterways
Washington's Industrial Stormwater General Permit (ISWGP) applies to all facilities conducting industrial activities that discharge stormwater to a surface waterbody or to a storm sewer system that drains to a surface waterbody. Through the ISWGP, Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Department of Ecology (Ecology), resources have been committed to funding the cleanup of contaminated sites. A few examples of these contaminated sites are the Lower Duwamish Waterway (LDW), added to the Superfund National Priorities List in 2001 and Blair Waterway which began its national cleanup action in late-2015. It is through these cleanup actions and higher regulatory oversight that industrial facilities have adopted and embraced stormwater treatment as a means to meet the ISWGP.
This paper and presentation will focus on a showcase of solid waste/recycling handling facilities that discharge either directly or indirectly to the LDW or Blair Waterway that are utilizing active and passive treatment systems to comply with stringent water quality regulations. Each solid waste/recycling handling facility is different as each resembles unique sources, type, and volume of contaminated stormwater and process water. Through this paper/presentation, we will review one operations and material recycling facilitys' (MRF) and one reload facility designed to capture and ship solids from ongoing dredge operations. This showcase will demonstrate technologies that are capable of meeting extremely low benchmarks/limits for persistent pollutants and contaminants of concern consistent with the ISWGP at these waste facilities.
Operations and Materials Recovery Facility (MRF)
Waste Management (WM) JMK Fibers (JMK) is a MRF operating in the Port of Tacoma with stormwater outfalls that end up in the Blair Waterway. The facility processes approximately 40 tons per hour of many types of material, including loose single stream recyclables, old corrugated containers (OCC), and different types of paper roll stock and various other grades of paper. In 2015, JMK had stormwater pollution exceedances for turbidity and zinc triggering Level 3 Treatment BMP Corrective Active and Level 2 Structural BMP Corrective Action, respectively. WM decided to implement an advanced treatment system to address the Level 3 correction action requirements. Multiple treatment methods were tested and sand filtration followed by multi-media filtration utilizing GAC and Purolite was selected,
Duwamish Reload Facility
The Duwamish Reload Facility is a 15.85-acre industrial property that accepts and reloads petroleum-contaminated soil (PCS) from upland construction sites into railcars or trucks for disposal. As material arrives to the site, dredged sediment decant water that accumulates is collected and was deemed too contaminated to discharge to sewer under sanitary benchmarks. Considering the planned Facility operations, the documented results from other water treatment projects, and the desire to have a robust and automated treatment system for this Facility, a packaged chitosan enhanced sand filtration (CESF) system with additional treatment by granular activated carbon (GAC) had been selected for water treatment. Following some aggressive permitting, a 250-gallon per minute (gpm) treatment system was designed and installed in early 2015 and has maintained 100% compliance with the project's sanitary benchmarks.
Nathan Holloway has been working in the stormwater and environmental fields for the past 16 years. During that time he has developed strong working relationships with contractors, industrial permittees, municipalities and regulators to address complex projects with practical, cost effective and innovative treatment solutions. Nate's treatment experience ranges from high-flow active treatment systems to passive or enhanced low impact development (LID) features and he is well regarded for his ability to develop customized solutions to each project. Mr. Holloway is active in many committees and organizations related to water quality and is well known as an educator in the stormwater industry. In his role as Vice President at Clear Water Services, Nate is responsible for the Business Development, Operations and general management of the company.

New police evidence has upgraded the disappearance of a Crowes Mills man to a homicide investigation.
Peter Anthony (Tony) Walsh, 35, was last seen in Truro on Aug. 23. Up until now, his disappearance has been treated as a missing person file, however, the RCMP now say they believe Walsh was killed and a suspect is being investigated.
"We appreciate the tips and information that have come to us as a result of the media releases and the video appeal," Sgt. Glenn Bonvie, of Northeast Nova Major Crimes Unit, said, in the news release Monday. "We believe there are people in the community who know what happened and we need them to come forward. Our focus continues to be on the family and on getting answers for them as we try to determine what happened to Tony."
Walsh was last seen publicly on Aug. 23 in Truro.
"That morning he came out to the grooming salon (in the garage by their house) to talk to me," his mother Susan Robben recently told SaltWire News. "We discussed our plans for the day. He was going to do errands and was working that night. He said he'd be back at supper time and would bring me back an iced coffee. He was acting his usual easygoing self, not nervous or scared."
Although Robben found it unusual when he didn't show up that evening, she initially thought he must have met up with friends. But when she still hadn't heard from him by Saturday, Robben said she felt uneasy the entire day.
By Sunday, when Walsh still hadn't shown up to assist a family member as planned, Robben began contacting his friends, searching for his car and posting a message of concern on Facebook.
In addition to being in Truro on the day he disappeared, the RCMP has determined he also drove to Debert and Millbrook.
On Aug. 28, her daughter, Sarah Walsh-Turner, saw a Facebook message about the car — a beige 1990 Chrysler Sebring — parked in a downtown Truro lot. At that point, Robben called police to file an official missing person report.
Since then, the RCMP has sent out several appeals for public assistance and last fall its underwater recovery team dispatched its divers on at least two occasions to search the ponds in the Rayner's Pit area of Debert.
"Some days I think, based on the time frame and that there have been no sightings, he can't still be alive, but I continue to hope," Robben said in a pre-Christmas interview.
She politely declined to comment on Monday's latest announcement from the police.
