All About Rochester Toyota
Welcome to the Rochester Toyota dealership located in Rochester, New Hampshire.
Our dealership has always been family-owned and operated. The dealership was started by Mr. Edward V. Casaccio in October, 1974 and was a stand-alone Lincoln Mercury franchise. In 1975, Toyota was added. In 1983 the Dodge franchise was added as well. In 1985 Mr. Casaccio' s daughter, Lisa, joined her father. In 1986, his son Ed, joined the staff as well. In 2003, Mr. Casaccio retired and handed over the reins to Lisa and Ed. They both wear many hats. Lisa is the owner and General Manager. Her duties include working with the manufacturer, managing the managers, studying the financials and points the dealership in the direction it needs to go in so that is can stay successful. Ed wears many hats as well. He is the VP., the GSM, and the Used Car Manager. He is the head of the sales dept., appraises all our pre-owned cars, reconditions them and assists Lisa with the direction of the store.

Here is a rarity, built only during 1957 and in a quantity of less than 30. While the base model is common, the two pickup Gibson ES125 D is not. Introduced in 1946 as the effects of WW2 wound down, demand rose and materials became available again, the Gibson ES-125 was intended as a student model but has been used by many professionals over the decades. The ES-125 line was discontinued in 1970, though after 1960 or so most of the related models had the 'T' or Thinline body that was introduced in 1956.
Starting its life as the ES-100, the Gibson ES-125 was built as an affordable quality electrified archtop guitar for jazz and combo guitarists. It appeared as the ES-125 from 1941 to 1943, with wartime restrictions suspending production until 1946. The ES-125 stayed in production until 1970, but in the 1950's thinline and cutaway versions appeared as the ES-1235T and ES-125TC, and an extra pickup at the bridge was available in the ES-125 TDC model.

This Gibson ES-100 dates to 1954 and appears to be all original, though the pickguard is missing and the original case is long gone – it would have been faux-gator fibre (cardboard), and those often don't age well. The hardware is typical of this period. For example, the Kluson Deluxe tuners have no lettering but do have the hole for the tuner post, and these were used from 1953 to mid 1956. Translucent Gold 'Speed' or 'Hatbox' type knobs are used.

The Gibson ES-125 made its debut in 1941 as a student model – an affordable archtop electric, of maple laminate, one pickup and little decoration. Originally fitted with a 'Blade' style pickup, by 1947 a standard P90 was used. Production lasted until 1970. In 1956, the new thin body 'ES-125T' appeared and was available with two pickups and a cutaway.

It doesn't make a lot of sense to talk about a Shadow Period for Neptune, because Neptune's always in a Shadow Period. It enters the zone of its upcoming Retrogradation before it leaves the zone of its previous Retrogradation. Another way to say that, is that next year's Neptune Retro zone in the Zodiac overlaps this year's. Which is to say, every Neptune Shadow Period lasts more than a year. The same is true of Eris, Pluto, Uranus, and Chiron, when Chiron is out near the orbit of Uranus – as it is now, not when it's in near Saturn's orbit.
Mercury and Neptune
It's worthwhile to note that while Mercury's Station occurs at 1pm PST November 10, the Moon crosses Neptune and exactly Trines Mercury at 11pm PST the same day. That doesn't mean that the main effect of the Mercury Station will be postponed till 11pm, but it does mean that a meaningful chunk of the Mercury-Neptune Energy that we're immersed in will be manifesting then. What do we mean by Mercury-Neptune Energy? Well, that could look like…
Inability to focus, absent-mindedness, heavy Trances, attention directed to the cultural and Spiritual levels of existence, clear Insights, visions and hallucinations. Remember that Neptune usually comes through as Confusion when we're viewing the World through a Material lens, and Clarity when we're looking through a Spiritual lens. So Mercury-Neptune could bring Epiphanies, Doubt about Worldviews and Beliefs we hold that are no longer aligned with the shifting winds of cultural "Reality," access to non-ordinary states of Reality, speaking in tongues or Light Language, or any number of other Mental-Spiritual crossovers that most of us don't experience every day.
Remember that Neptune sat on the South Node on January 1, 2000, which we call the "Loss of the Veil" – the breakdown of the walls between the 4-D "Reality" we usually limit ourselves to, and everything that's beyond. So we expect that "Loss" to be a "feature" of the 21st Century.
The Second Duad of Pisces
This year's Retrograde adventures of Neptune spanned almost exactly the second or Aries Duad of Pisces. We've dealt with it twice already, from mid-February till early June, and from early June till now. In other words it more or less corresponds to our first (Can-Opener) and second (Exposition) adventures with Consciousness of our Position and Trajectory in the Evolution of the Universe (Juno Squaring the Nodes). We'll probably sew all that up – and gain a better understanding about how it all fits together, when Neptune Initiates Juno in January. So what would we say about the second Duad of Pisces?
Aquarius tests our Confidence in our Community, in the same way that Leo tests our Self-Confidence. Since Humility and Vulnerability are not particularly rewarded, at least in Euro-American cultures, much of our Confidence in either arena involves "fake it till you make it." Getting to Pisces is like getting off the stage after a performance we enjoyed or one we barely squirmed through. Either way we get hit with heavy Emotion – we have to deal with the repercussions of our hubris, or the nightmares of reliving a performance that failed our standards – all while being forced to move on with our lives, with no weekend to debrief. Think getting out of high school, or moving to the Big City.
The Pisces Duad of Pisces is about exactly that overwhelming burst of Emotion.
In the Aries Duad we find Inspiration and Passion in the floodwaters.
Those of you born around the 21st through 23rd of February can verify – or not. Now that we've lived through the Can-Opener and the Exposition of our Karma-Desire Review – which we could even equate to the Judgment after Death, are we finding some small flame of Energy amid the Shame and Fear we've been dealing with? It might be a little too soon; we should ask the question again in the Spring.
Retrograde Cycles frequently involve these three-part Learning Opportunities – Can-Opener, Exposition, and Confidence-Builder, as one planet crosses a given Angle to another planet three times. Pallas and Neptune are dancing with the stars in this way. Pallas Opposes Neptune on November 15, then again after it turns Retro, in February, and for the third time in June. The current Pallas-Neptune Cycle began in February 2012 at 1 Pisces, "In a crowded marketplace farmers and middlemen display a great variety of products." At the Opposition, folks either begin to enjoy the fruits of their labors, or move to a higher perspective and begin to debrief their adventures in order to discover what it was that they really excelled at during their efforts.
Pallas-Neptune is about our Spiritual Edges and Social Boundaries. If we've been moving into the marketplace during 2012, we should begin to see rewards by June, with critical review of our progress next week and in February. If we haven't been moving out into the marketplace, then the Neptune Station is likely to initiate a debriefing about what we've been up to over the last two years. With Pallas entering Virgo, there will be a temptation to Judge ourself.
Anticipate that monolog, hear it, recognize it, Witness it, and embrace it lovingly, but don't believe it. Look behind it. There is an Expectation there, or Judgment wouldn't be possible. Examine the Expectation. Is it still relevant to who you've become? We've spent most of the last year Becoming someone new, in several different ways. That's a full-time job, so we deserve a great deal of forbearance in any case. Now we need to review our Expectations – do they arise from our Mission or our Yintegrity? Or from our programming. Given the degree of Change we've been through, I'm guessing that most of our Expectations of Ourselves will no longer be what we really Want.
Calculus is difficult for folks trained in logic, because it doesn't involve a chain of logical consequences. In calculus you have to go to the end result that you want, and guess your way backward to where you started, one step at a time. Reverse engineering. That's what we need to do with this marketplace.
What has changed for you, and how have you changed, since February 2012? There is something there that's not only positive, it's sterling. Remarkable even.
That is what you've been working on, not your old Expectation. Honor yourself for that. It's not the same marketplace you thought you were in when Time Ended. It's a lot more Authentically You.
Manganaxinite – Calcium Manganese Aluminium Borosilicate. Grounding through Feminine channels – a Silk chord from the base of your spine to the center of the Earth. Always the first response to Neptune – Grounding. Healing Emotional wounds and Judgment, realigning our orientation to changing Realities and Relationships. Borosilicates evoke Magic. Manganese opens the Heart without losing our Grounding.

Julião Sarmento
Giorgio Persano
Via Principessa Clotilde 45
November 10, 2012 – February 9, 2013
In the wake of the two exhibitions in 1988 and 1990, the Giorgio Persano gallery again presents a personal exhibition of works by the Portuguese artist, Julião Sarmento.
The exhibition presents a 4-channel video installation called "Leporello". The actresses appearing in the work were asked to observe a sequence drawn from a specific pornographic film. Once on the set, and without any rehearsals, the women explained the unfolding of the action, thus creating a verbal cacophony of overlapping voices giving various female narratives of what was going on.
Jerusa Franco, a Brazilian actress who works principally in the field of experimental theatre, Amira Casar, a French film actress, Sasha Grey, a former American porno star who has re-invented herself as a visual artist, and Pamela Butt, a Brazilian porno star, described the sequence in their respective languages, as though they were the principle character in the film.
The work is not translated and bears no subtitles, so that the observer is able to concentrate principally on the language of the sound, and on the performance and body of the performers. Sarmento's works are always presented in their original language, because they "bear a trace with them, a specific, unchangeable form of information, as though it were the line drawn by a pencil".
The video alludes to the use of collage, which has always been central to the artist's work, creating and blending different points of view, each with its authority and distortions. Thanks to the accumulation and assemblage, a new choral narrative action is created and amplified. Through the use of casual or deliberate associations, Sarmento places alternative realities alongside each other in an illusory game of overlapping elements.
Four photographic diptychs are directly linked to the video installation, showing the sequence described in the narratives. Other spaces present recent sculptures and paintings, taken from the video but in a dialogue with its, weaving a relationship between the works on display.

Congolese basketball players in the U.S.
Sarah Kazadi is a freelance journalist and producer at the CBS Sports Network. In summer 2012, she interned in her native country of Congo. There, she learned of a basketball club helping two young Congolese women achieve their dream of studying in the U.S. Recently, Sarah published an article about these two women in Newsweek and The Daily Beast. She tells Worldview how these women made it from Congo to the basketball courts of Arizona Western College.

The family dynamic looks very different today than it did decades ago. No longer is a family unit limited to a married man and woman who then have children. Many heterosexual couples are having children before they get married -- if they ever get married. As for children's issues -- what does that mean for the rights of children born out of wedlock? Under family law in British Columbia, as in the rest of the country, those rights the same as those of children whose parents are married.
Regardless of whether the child is born to married or unmarried parents, both parents have to sign the birth registration form in British Columbia unless one or both are incapable of doing so. If the father isn't known or doesn't acknowledge the child as his, the child's mother can sign alone. If the mother signs alone, she can decide the child's given and surnames. When the parents don't agree on the last name, the child's last name will be a combination of the parents' surnames hyphenated or combined in alphabetical order.
When parents are living together, British Columbia law stipulates that they are both guardians of their children. If a parent never lives with his or her child, he or she is not considered a guardian of the child. But that parent can apply to the court to become a guardian.
Laws around children's issues in British Columbia can get pretty confusing. It often takes a lawyer who is experienced in these laws to untangle the complex bits and explain them to a client in a way they make sense. A lawyer may be able to help a biological parent who isn't married to his or her partner to come to some understanding of the law in relationship to his or her children.
