Selecting a Wedding Day Location: Why the Place You Say Your Vows Matters
March 24, 2019 , PLANNING RESOURCES
I strongly believe that a couple's wedding day should be wholly representative of their relationship, authentic and relevant to who they are as a couple. Everyone deserves a true-to-you wedding day experience. After all, these are moments that are going to stay with you over the years, something to celebrate during good times, and a buoy for your relationship when the waters get rough.
One of the biggest wedding day decisions you will make as a couple is the piece of earth you choose to get married on. And one of the best ways to bring your true selves to your wedding day is to choose a location that is completely you.
The beauty of elopements and intimate weddings is that you can get married *almost* anywhere for any reason you wish. There is so much more flexibility to be had when your wedding day consists of just you and a handful of others (or just you!). I've photographed weddings on mountaintops and lakeside, in 200 year-old barns, and in ancient old growth forests. Each of my experiences has shown me that commitment is enriched when you wrap it in the warmth of a location that speaks to your collective soul.
I get it though, the seemingly limitless options can be downright overwhelming. All that flexibility can feel like both a blessing and a curse. I'm here to help! Keeping these considerations in mind while dreaming up a location can help you narrow down the options and discover a location that is utterly and completely reflective of your love story.
Wedding locations can be broken down into two groups, locations that have a nostalgic aspect, and those that are novel/adventurous. Of course, a location can be chosen because it falls into both of these categories as well. Let's look at them more closely and, hopefully, spark some ideas in the process.
These are locations that evoke a sense of history. Perhaps yours, your relationship's, or a cherished relative's. Maybe the place you had your first date or first hike, the place where you first said, "I love you," or a special location that you often frequent together. Nostalgic locations may also stir childhood memories, a place where there are family ties. Such locations may be significant due to ancestral, religious, or heritage related reasons. Maybe you want to marry your loved one in the exact location that your great grandparents met or were wed.
Nostalgic locations are steeped with history and, as a result, are oftentimes brimming with sentiment. These locations are a great choice for amplifying those feelings of purpose and intent that are already naturally present on your wedding day.
Novel and adventurous locations become meaningful by virtue of the history that you will create with your partner at that site. If you want a new experience or adventure to share with your partner as part of your wedding day experience, these types of locations do the trick.
A novel location has the added benefit of providing challenge, both physical and mental. Facing the unpredictability of a new landscape or engaging in a new activity together leads to increased cooperation, feelings of trust, and heightened intimacy, all elements that you want present on the day you promise your life to your chosen person (and on all the days that follow!). Sharing a new adventure together allows the forging of memories that come from accomplishing something novel and meaningful as a couple. These memories can, in turn, be revisited when your marriage needs a little pick me up.
Your location can fit into one of the above categories, or may have qualities that make it an equally good fit for both. The most important thing to keep in mind when brainstorming, and eventually selecting, a location is that it truly represents you and your partner, either literally, symbolically, or both. Perhaps sequoias that have stood the test of time are the perfect giants to witness a union that will, likewise, be enduring. Maybe a placid alpine lake best represents your easy-going natures and the tranquility that you find in each other's presence. Gazing out from a rugged cliff edge may perfectly embody the excitement that you feel about taking this leap of faith into building a life together.
Be authentic and true to yourselves and your relationship. If you don't like to hike, don't get married at the tippy top of a mountain just for Pinterest-worthy images because, at the end of the day, what really matters is the experience and your memories. You want to look back on the images from your day and feel the moments all over again. Being true to yourselves makes those moments so much more meaningful.
I hope this inspired some ideas! There are so many things to consider when choosing an elopement or intimate wedding location beyond the more psychological aspects discussed above, so stay tuned for the next post, which will cover the more logistical aspects of location selection.
Helping couples plan their authentic wedding day experience and documenting it beautifully is my passion. I want to hear about your location ideas! Let's chat about creating your authentic and intimate wedding day experience.

This 1976 Lancia Beta 1800 Coupe is a non-running project billed as one-owner example with full documentation. Stored from 1998 until a few months ago, the seller says that the engine still turns freely and that the electrical system appeared to be functional when hooked up to a new battery. A bit of surface rust is mentioned in the description, but the underside is said to look great, and topside cosmetics appear quite decent as well, with a very attractive silver over red leather combo. Find it here on Craigslist in Ventura County, California for $4k.
Paint finish looks to be in decent shape, but closeup shots reveal some rust bubbles forming in places like the leading edge of the hood and windshield cowl. The doors also have a few bubbles, but the seller insists that the underside is in good shape. The remainder of sheet metal looks straight and consistent, and finish on the bumpers and other trim seems nice as well. OEM wheels present well, but tires look dry rotted and ready for replacement.
With the exception of a sun-bleached dash cover, the interior looks well-preserved and in good shape with very decent upholestery and carpets. The serviceable driver's seat looks to wear the worst of any visible wear, but all other seating surfaces look great. The radio looks like it could be an original item, but an aftermarket graphic equalizer has been fitted in front of it. Switchgear, gauges, and other instrumentation all look complete as well, and the steering wheel features a neat design not found on later examples.
In addition to manuals and other documentation, the original title is said to accompany the car as well. This photo also offers a nice glimpse at the paint, which looks highly serviceable–it's a shame about the bubbles.
Motivation comes from a 1,756cc Lampredi twin cam which made between 108 and 118 HP when new, with other spec including a 5-speed transaxle and 4-wheel disc brakes. A few components within the engine compartment look new, but aside from noting that the engine still turns freely, mechanicals aren't really touched on within the ad. Functional electrics are certainly good.
Hopefully rust really does prove to be limited, as the car certainly seems to have a lot of promise otherwise.
Did you mean to enter this number as a bid? If so please use the bidding box above.

Since heavy metal's inception in the early 80s—or 70s, depending on who you ask—heavy metal has been criticized for its flagrant obsession with cultural taboos and longstanding love affair with Satan, and from a purely musical standpoint, musicians on the outside looking in often have a hard time accepting metal because of its extreme guitar tones and unclean vocals. But these are all just surface level things, as those of us who have delved into the scene know. Metal's vast musical heritage go farther back than your music appreciation professor would care to admit; it obviously owes a lot to early rock 'n' roll, blues, and punk, but there are rich deposits of classical music as well. That classical influence is apparent in the playing of modern metal pianists and composers like Øyvind Johan Mustaparta, Vegard Sverre Tveitan, and Jordan Rudess, and in bombastic, overarching genres like symphonic black metal. However, there's also been a more subtle classical carry-over: the stylistic embellishment known as the trill.
For those unfamiliar with the trill, it's a technique that early composers used due to its rhythmic, melodic, and harmonic properties. By rapidly alternating between two adjacent notes—usually a half-step or whole-step apart—composers could create a brief sense of dissonance and tension that clashed with the tonality of the respective piece. The trill naturally creates a sense of tension, and when used properly, it lends itself well to somber moods and melodies. Metal musicians picked up on this early on and, by passing it down through the airwaves, have made it a hallmark of heavy music today.
Historically, the trill has acquired associations with doom, gloom, and even the occult. More specifically, two noteworthy composers, Guiseppe Tartini and Franz Schubert, adopted the trill to express a sense of melancholy in some of the most definitive pieces of their oeuvre. While these composers were certainly not the only ones to use the trill in incisive ways, their use of the classic embellishment distinguished their work.
Giuseppe Tartini (1692-1770) was a Baroque era composer from the town of Piran, which is now located in modern day Slovenia. Although Tartini was the first to play a violin fashioned by Antonio Stradivari himself, his true claim to fame is his famous Violin Sonata in G minor, also known as the Le trille du diable, or The Devil's Trill. As Tartini tells it, the piece was inspired by a visitation from the Devil himself. He claims the Devil appeared before him and offered to become his servant. Upon agreeing and enlisting the Devil as his steward, Tartini handed him his violin to see if the Devil had any musical ability. Of course, as legend has it, the Devil proceeded to play an entire sonata so awe-inspiring that it awoke Tartini from his sleep, at which point he seized his violin and feebly attempted to transcribe what he had heard performed before him. Now, the piece is considered standard repertoire for solo violin because of its technical difficulty. This is due in part to the rapid licks that dominate the sonata, but also because of the trills which serve as much of a melodic function as the theme itself.
Franz Schubert (1797-1828), a Romantic era composer known for his prolific output and keen ear for melody, applied the trill in a completely different manner. His last contribution to classical music was his Sonata in B flat, the final piece he composed before he died shortly after. What stands out about Schubert's use of the trill is its abrupt placement within an otherwise pleasant melody. Indeed, the moment the listener hears the encroaching snarl of Schubert's famous trill, a sense of dread and dark uncertainty fills the air. Classical aficionados often attribute Schubert's brusque application of the embellishment to his knowledge of his impending doom: Schubert suffered from typhoid fever—or, as others purport, syphilis—and his death was close at hand.
The Sonata in B flat is one of the more deliberate uses of the trill in classical music. Rather than adorning cadences with excessive filigree like his Baroque forebears, the plodding heaviness of Schubert's trill stops the piece dead in its tracks before allowing the dainty melody to resume. When compared in this way, listeners can hear the various uses of the trill as it evolved throughout history. During Tartini's time, it functioned as an ornament that served to transition a piece from theme to theme; however, not even 100 years later, we see the trill applied sparingly, making for a grander, if not more impactful, statement.
When Tony Iommi deified himself in 1970 by unleashing upon the world that seminal riff from Black Sabbath's infamous title track, he not only laid the groundwork for the future of heavy metal music, he also single-handedly executed one of the most noteworthy trills in rock 'n' roll history. Combined with the sound of pouring rain and the ominous ringing of the bell, his use of the trill on "Black Sabbath" demonstrated the latent power the classical embellishment has always held, but had hitherto never been actualized with proper amplification.
The pioneering work of 70s hard rock gods like Jimmy Page, Ritchie Blackmore, Alex Lifeson, and many others must also be acknowledged here, as their contributions to the electric guitar and rock 'n' roll undoubtedly incorporated the trill at various points in their solos and compositions. For the sake of establishing a timeline, some of the first mentionable metal musicians to co-opt the trill were guitarists like Iron Maiden's Adrian Smith, Celtic Frost's Thomas Gabriel Fischer, and Saint Vitus's Dave Chandler in the early 80s. It's important to note that as these guitarists appropriated the trill, they essentially repurposed it to suit their needs. In other words, the trill took on a more integral role as opposed to its original intent during the Baroque era.
From the year 1990 on, metal grew in many directions, yet despite the genre's shifting landscape, though, the trill can still be heard as a prominent characteristic. In the 90s, bands like Electric Wizard, Cathedral, Emperor, and Gorgoroth used it throughout their songs, and special attention should be given to the work of Dissection, particularly the Baroque-esque classical interludes scattered throughout their debut album, The Somberlain. The song "Crimson Towers" combined Baroque-era counterpoint, frequent trills, and sorrowful melodies to form a unique hybrid sound that distinguished Dissection from their atonally-focused peers in other formative black metal bands of that time.
Around the late 90s and early 2000s, bands like Six Feet Under, Melechesh, and Gorerotted took the trill to new levels by layering it over their song structures, while similar use of the trill can be heard on Cannibal Corpse's "Raped by the Beast" and Nile's "Lashed to the Slave Stick." By infusing the rapid flickering of the trill into chaotic guitar passages, these artists produced a furious sound entirely unique to heavy metal. Groups like Beastmaker, Samsara Blues Experiment, R.I.P., Pilgrim, Wretch, and Petyr exhale the hazy, slow-burning trills once heard on classic Saint Vitus and Witchfinder General albums, while other modern doom bands, like Crypt Sermon and Stone Magnum, lean more towards the 'epicus metallicus' trill perfected by that of Candlemass and, much later, Solitude Aeturnus.
It all comes full circle. As a form, the trill has been passed along through history, and in time, contemporary composers and modern bands in other genres will likely reclaim the trill, picking it back up where Mozart and Haydn left it. But, for now at least, heavy metal has claimed it as its own. To get an idea of how the trill has evolved, here are some of the best examples over the last 30 years:
Iron Maiden - "The Trooper"
Iron Maiden's "The Trooper" from their 1983 album, Piece of Mind, featured the trill as an irresistible hook that carries the listener through the song, qualifying it as one of the most memorable and catchy riffs from the band's extensive catalog.
Celtic Frost - "Dethroned Emperor"
A year later, Celtic Frost would debut Morbid Tales, an album applauded for its formative influence on death metal and early black metal. Their song "Dethroned Emperor" includes one of the grimiest and drawn out trills in the bridge (listen around the 2 minute mark) . Similar to that of Schubert's trill, Celtic Frost's use of the embellishment fills the void as the drums and bass drop out, connecting the song to a visceral solo. For an exceptionally well-done version of the song, check out Obituary's live cover.
Megadeth - "Tornado of Souls"
In 1990, Megadeth would release Rust in Peace, one of the thrash legends' most popular LPs. The main riff on Tornado of Souls reels the listener in with a blazing, characteristic Mustaine lick, and part of the appeal of this riff is the lightning quick trill bridging the rest of the passage together. It's catchy, and similar in function to the trills Tartini incorporated throughout the Devil's Trill sonata.
Old Man's Child - "Black Seeds on Virgin Soil"
A definite must-hear is the song "Black Seeds on Virgin Soil" by Old Man's Child, a side project founded by Dimmu Borgir guitarist Galder. The dramatic use of the trill in this particular track demonstrates just how twisted a musical ornament can become.
Emperor - "The Acclamation of Bonds"
Emperor's 'The Acclamation of Bonds' from their 1997 release Anthems to the Welkin at Dusk contains one of the most epic trills in black metal. Played high on the register, Ihsahn's masterful trill stalls the intro just long enough for the listener to sense the ensuing rush of tremolo guitar, bleeding synthesizer chords, and blast beats.
Saint Vitus - "Burial at Sea"
Saint Vitus's Paul Chandler undoubtedly plays one of the meanest and most distinct trills in doom metal, as heard of "Burial at Sea," a track off the California outfit's self-titled 1984 debut. This particular lineup features original singer Scott Reagers (though later they would join up with Scott "Wino" Weinrich of The Obsessed and Spirit Caravan, who fronted the group through most of the 90s and for a period in the 2000s).
Beastmaker - "Nature of the Damned"
California doom crew Beastmaker's sound hearkens back to the proto-doom and early heavy metal sound that came about during the NWOBHM period in the 80s. In 'Nature of the Damned,' they throw a trill into the main riff for good measure because, well, it's just what proper doom metal should do.
Dissection - "Heaven's Damnation"
Around the 2 minute mark, Dissection plays one of the heaviest trill-laden riffs on The Somberlain. Their sound would slightly change going into their second album, Storm of the Light's Bane, as guitarist John Zwetsloot left the band. His classical training had a major influence on all the material heard on The Somberlain.

At KTK, we offer the best quality in teaching Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Learning this ground combat system favors the development of techniques that allow an attacker to defeat a much stronger opponent than themselves.
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu
Mitsuyo Maeda
In the last days of the 19th century, some Jiu-Jitsu masters emigrated from Japan to other continents, teaching the martial arts as well as taking part in fights and competitions. Mitsuyo Maeda was one such master. Maeda arrived in Brazil in 1915, and settled in Belem do Para, where the tradition of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu began and continues through the Gracie family.
Jiu-Jitsu became a method not simply for fighting, but for personal improvement. Jiu Jitsu promotes the concept that a smaller, weaker person can successfully defend against a bigger, stronger assailant by using leverage and proper technique.
Grand Master Carlos Gracie
Grand Master Carlos Gracie & Helio Gracie
Carlos Gracie was possibly the single most important figure in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu history. Carlos began his training in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu under Master Maeda at the age of 15. A few year later, Carlos was invited to train in the Special Police, and this is where Carlos started truly testing his Jiu-Jitsu skills in No Holds Barred fights performed in closed quarters.
Soon he managed to save enough money to launch his dream: his own Jiu-Jitsu academy. This very modest place was set in "Rua Marques de Abrantes" number 106 in the year of 1925. For this amazing challenge ahead, he asked brothers George and Helio to join him. In the time of the academy he taught diligently his brothers. He also promoted fights between his academy and other styles of fighting common in Rio de Janeiro such as Capoeira, Boxing and Wrestling in order to promote his academy. His team would consist of himself and his brothers.
Renzo Gracie
Renzo was born on March 11, 1967, in Rio de Janeiro – Brazil. He is the grandson of Gracie Jiu-Jitsu founder Carlos Gracie and son of 9th Dan BJJ black belt Robson Gracie. Like most men in the Gracie family, Renzo started training Jiu-Jitsu as an infant.
Renzo pursued his fighting career moving to the US to compete where the sport was gaining recognition after the early UFC's, he also opened his own academy in New York, a gym that rapidly became a reference in America and the world for high quality Jiu-Jitsu. From this same academy Renzo Gracie forged fighters such as Matt Serra, John Danaher, Ricardo Cachorão, Shawn Williams, Jerry Rinaldi and many, many others.
Even though Renzo had spent most of his later years as a coach in his academy in New York, he never retired officially from competition, and in 2010 he signed a contract with the UFC at the age of 43, fighting Matt Hughes one of the most dominant UFC champions of all time on his first fight for the organization.

When it comes to renting a storage unit, the sky is almost the limit for what you're allowed to store. Check out the following items and make sure you aren't storing any of them in a self storage unit. This is essential not only for the safekeeping of your belongings, but also for the safety of the facility as well.
If you're in need of a storage unit, contact Just Store It! in Clarksville today. If you have any further questions about what you are and aren't allowed to keep in your storage unit, feel free to ask us! Our goal is to provide clean, secure, and convenient storage unit for all of our customers.
One of the benefits of storage units that keep most of your belongings in good condition is the climate control. This keeps your storage unit cool, dry, and dark.
This, however, is the opposite environment that plants need to survive. Plants need warmth, sunshine, and plenty of water to thrive. While you can keep plenty of your gardening supplies in storage, avoid putting living plants in your storage unit.
One of the main adversaries of self storage is pests, and nothing attracts them more than food and other perishable items. Whether it's your food or pet food, it will rot over time, stink, and attract insects and rodents.
Be sure not to store items in containers that were previously used to store food. This includes fruit boxes and liquor boxes. Though these containers may not be storing food anymore, they still smell like the food they once carried and will attract pests.
Hazardous Materials
Another big no-no for self storage is hazardous materials and waste. If something is flammable, explosive, or radioactive, it does not belong in a storage unit. Keeping these items could lead to a fire or explosion, which you will be held responsible for.
Do not store items like lead paint, asbestos, petroleum, methane, medical waste, and other toxic substances. As an extra measure, remove the batteries from all of the electronics you're planning to store, as these are also corrosive.
If you have extra cash you need to store somewhere, a storage unit is not the place. Even if you have an insurance policy for your stored items, the policy does not cover cash.
If you have a significant amount of cash you'd like to safely store, choose to store it in a deposit box at your bank instead.
Whether you're looking for short-term storage while you go home from college for the summer, long-term storage while you're deployed overseas, or you just need a storage unit to keep your belongings for a little bit during a move, Just Store It! in Clarksville has you covered with a variety of storage unit sizes and storage amenities to choose from.
Just remember that when you're packing up your belongings, you aren't planning on storing any living things, perishables, hazardous materials, or cash in your storage unit. For more information, contact us today.

Monday December 4th, 2017 – The Final Edition of The Monitor…for now.
This week's edition of The Monitor will be the last until at least the summer of 2018. After more than 14 years on the air and hundreds of interviews, I am forced to take a break from the show. Listen to last week's show for more detail.
The Monitor goes on hiatus with a feature length interview with William Binney, a former highly placed intelligence official with the United States National Security Agency(NSA) who turned whistleblower and resigned on October 31, 2001, after more than 30 years with the agency. He was a high-profile critic of his former employers during the George W. Bush administration, and later criticized the NSA's data collection policies during the Barack Obama administration. In 2016, he said the U.S. intelligence community's assessment that Russia interfered in the 2016 presidential election was false. You can read more about Binney in many outlets online, including: CIA DIRECTOR MET ADVOCATE OF DISPUTED DNC HACK THEORY — AT TRUMP'S REQUEST; NSA whistleblower discusses 'How the NSA tracks you'
William Binney features in a documentary called "A Good American". This is well worth watching and available now on Netflix. Here is the trailer:
Show Details for the week of October 2nd, 2017
On The Monitor this week:
- Last week Roy Moore won Senate runoff election to replace Attorney General Jeff Sessions. Moore is no stranger to controversy (among other things, he has said that homosexuality should be illegal, Muslims to not be allowed in Congress, and 9/11 was God's punishment for Americans' sins). We talk with Frederick Clarkson about the significance of Moore's victory.
- The Spanish government violently responded to an independence referendum in Catalonia. Hundreds were injured or unable to vote. The result, despite (or because of the low turnout) was about 90 percent in favor of independence. Sebastiaan Faber explains how and why this happened.
More about this week's guests:
Frederick Clarkson is senior fellow at Political Research Associates, a progressive think tank in Somerville, Massachusetts. He is also the author of the 2016 report "When Exemption is the Rule: The Religious Freedom Strategy of the Christian Right" and wrote the book Eternal Hostility: The Struggle Between Theocracy and Democracy. You can also read some of his recent work here. Quote: "Roy Moore is the most openly theocratic politician in national life — and he has a good chance of being the next U.S. Senator from Alabama. The special election to fill the remainder of the term of Jeff Sessions, who was appointed as U.S. Attorney General by president Trump, will be held on Dec. 12. Moore is heavily favored to prevail over Democrat and former federal prosecutor Doug Jones. Moore favors criminalizing abortion and homosexuality. He does not respect the authority of the U.S. Supreme Court to interpret the Constitution, and the federal courts to enforce civil rights laws. His views hark back to the time of massive resistance to civil rights for African Americans, when opponents invoked the notions of nullification and interposition — which basically meant that states could ignore federal actions; including court orders they believed were inconsistent with the Constitution. Like the nullificationists of the last century, Moore does not view the rulings of the U.S. Supreme Court and the federal courts as binding on the states. Particularly if they conflict with his idiosyncratic view of what God requires. Roy Moore epitomizes the contemporary politics of theocratic Christian dominionism in his attacks on separation of church and state and religious freedom. Moore was twice elected on a statewide ballot as Chief Justice of the Alabama Supreme Court. He has also been removed from office each time because he violated orders from a federal judge. The first time, he had installed a two-and-a-half-ton monument to the Ten Commandments in the foyer of the state courthouse. A federal judge ruled that this was an unambiguous violation of separation of church and state and ordered it removed. Moore refused. The second time, he sought to undermine a federal court order to state officials to honor the Supreme Court's 2015 stand for marriage equality in the case of Obergefell v Hodges. Moore sought to direct state probate judges not to issue same sex marriage licenses, claiming that existing state bans on same sex marriage were still in force."
Sebastiaan Faber is a professor of Hispanic Studies at Oberlin College and author of several books, including Alcalá de Henares: Instituto Franklin de Estudios Norteamericanos; Anglo-American Hispanists and the Spanish Civil War: Hispanophilia, Commitment, and Discipline; Exile and Cultural Hegemony: Spanish Intellectuals in Mexico (1939-1975) and the forthcoming Memory Battles and the Spanish Civil War. He just co-wrote "Have Spain and Catalonia Reached a Point of No Return?" for The Nation. Quote: "While the repressive measures taken so far have certainly made a region-wide vote more difficult, the Catalans refuse to give up. In a nationally televised interview aired on Sept. 24, Catalan President Puigdemont vowed to go ahead with the referendum [this Sunday]. Meanwhile, the arrests of Sept. 20 have prompted massive, ongoing demonstrations in Barcelona and elsewhere."

On The Monitor this week:
- Howard Zinn's 2009 speech at The Progressive Magazine's 100th anniversary
- Part of a talk by Noam Chomsky from 1990 describing propaganda terms in the media and what they mean
Howard Zinn was an American historian, political scientist, social critic, activist and playwright. He is best known as author of the best-seller 'A People's History of the United States'. Zinn has been active in the Civil Rights and the anti-war movements in the United States. Howard Zinn passed away on January 27, 2010. Zinn was raised in a working-class family in Brooklyn, and flew bombing missions for the United States in World War II, an experience he now points to in shaping his opposition to war. In 1956, he became a professor at Spelman College in Atlanta, a school for black women, where he soon became involved in the Civil rights movement, which he participated in as an adviser to the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee SNCC and chronicled, in his book SNCC The New Abolitionists. Zinn collaborated with historian Staughton Lynd and mentored a young student named Alice Walker. When he was fired in 1963 for insubordination related to his protest work, he moved to Boston University, where he became a leading critic of the Vietnam War.
Noam Chomsky is an American linguist, philosopher, cognitive scientist, historian, social critic, and political activist. Sometimes described as "the father of modern linguistics", Chomsky is also a major figure in analytic philosophy and one of the founders of the field of cognitive science. He is Institute Professor Emeritus at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), where he has worked since 1955, and is the author of over 100 books on topics such as linguistics, war, politics, and mass media. Ideologically, he aligns with anarcho-syndicalism and libertarian socialism.
Born to middle-class Ashkenazi Jewish immigrants in Philadelphia, Chomsky developed an early interest in anarchism from alternative bookstores in New York City. At the age of 16 he began studies at the University of Pennsylvania, taking courses in linguistics, mathematics, and philosophy. From 1951 to 1955 he was appointed to Harvard University's Society of Fellows, where he developed the theory of transformational grammar for which he was awarded his doctorate in 1955. That year he began teaching at MIT, in 1957 emerging as a significant figure in the field of linguistics for his landmark work Syntactic Structures, which remodeled the scientific study of language, while from 1958 to 1959 he was a National Science Foundation fellow at the Institute for Advanced Study. He is credited as the creator or co-creator of the universal grammar theory, the generative grammar theory, the Chomsky hierarchy, and the minimalist program. Chomsky also played a pivotal role in the decline of behaviorism, being particularly critical of the work of B. F. Skinner.
An outspoken opponent of U.S. involvement in the Vietnam War, which he saw as an act of American imperialism, in 1967 Chomsky attracted widespread public attention for his anti-war essay "The Responsibility of Intellectuals". Associated with the New Left, he was arrested multiple times for his activism and placed on President Richard Nixon's Enemies List. While expanding his work in linguistics over subsequent decades, he also became involved in the Linguistics Wars. In collaboration with Edward S. Herman, Chomsky later co-wrote an analysis articulating the propaganda model of media criticism, and worked to expose the Indonesian occupation of East Timor. However, his defense of unconditional freedom of speech – including for Holocaust deniers – generated significant controversy in the Faurisson affair of the early 1980s. Following his retirement from active teaching, he has continued his vocal political activism, including opposing the War on Terror and supporting the Occupy movement.
One of the most cited scholars in history, Chomsky has influenced a broad array of academic fields. He is widely recognized as a paradigm shifter who helped spark a major revolution in the human sciences, contributing to the development of a new cognitivistic framework for the study of language and the mind. In addition to his continued scholarly research, he remains a leading critic of U.S. foreign policy, neoliberalism and contemporary state capitalism, the Israeli–Palestinian conflict, and mainstream news media. His ideas have proved highly significant within the anti-capitalist and anti-imperialist movements, but have also drawn criticism, with some accusing Chomsky of anti-Americanism.
In 2006 The Progressive Magazine published a text by Howard Zinn that is well worth a read today.

A serious void exists in the public discourse relating to the issues that directly and/or disproportionately impact the African-American community. Dr. Leon discusses issues such as the prison industrial complex, environmental racism, school vouchers, health care, crime policy, economic globalization, American domestic and foreign policy from as much of a non-biased and academically accurate perspective as possible. Dr. Leon's perspective and lectures are grounded in the history of the African American community and the radical tradition of African American scholarship.
David N. Gibbs is professor of history at the University of Arizona, who specializes in international relations and military intervention. His most recent book is First Do No Harm: Humanitarian Intervention and the Destruction of Yugoslavia from Vanderbilt University Press.
Quote: "U.S. policy is embarking on a reckless course, one that is unlikely to produce any positive results, either in terms of enhancing U.S. security or alleviating human suffering. Even if the policy is successful, regime change in Syria would only increase the ongoing chaos and humanitarian catastrophe, as the multiple rebel groups turn on each other. In general, the history of U.S. efforts at overthrowing dictators in such cases as Afghanistan, Iraq, and Libya has led to instability and many years of civil war, as well as new terrorist threats against the West. There is no reason to believe the situation in Syria would be any different. In addition, military interventions in Syria are sure to worsen U.S. relations with Russia, and will thus increase the risk of nuclear war."

What do you enjoy drinking in the summer? As rosé, frosé and aperol spritz trends rage on, I'm sipping something a little different with my new Strawberry Basil Kombucha Cocktail. Cocktails have a bad reputation for being super sweet and sugary. Combine alcohol and sugar and you're setting yourself up for a massive blood sugar crash – and perhaps even a hangover. Lighten it up as you kick back by the pool, enjoy a picnic or sit on your front porch this summer with a Strawberry Basil Kombucha Cocktail instead. You can use those fresh berries and basil growing in your garden to whip this cocktail up in minutes.
Kombucha is a fermented tea beverage you can make at home or buy in the store. It will be in the refrigerated section to preserve the live bacteria. Kombucha has a slightly vinegar taste and it's more tangy than sweet. It is also naturally carbonated and fizzy because of the fermentation. You may notice some floaters in the container and that's the stringy bits of yeast and scoby – the good bacteria. There is some evidence that the bacteria we eat in food (think pickles, wine, sour cream, yogurt, kimchi, etc) helps support the good bacteria living in our gut – specifically the colon- and that microbiome has been linked to human health. Kombucha makes a great base for Strawberry Basil Kombucha Cocktail because it is tangy and bright, complimenting the strawberries perfectly.
For other delightful and healthy(ish) cocktails, check out my 3-ingredient frosé, Gin Ginger Beet Cocktail with Thyme, or Vegan Turmeric Banana-Mango Lassi which you can spike with a little rum. YUM!
- 4 medium-size fresh strawberries (sliced thinnly)
- 4 fresh basil leaves (plus more for garnish 1)
- teaspoon honey
- 3 ounces vodka
- 1 cup lemon kombucha
- 1 cup ice cubes
- In the bottom of 2 rocks glasses (can also use mason jars), muddle 2 strawberries and 2 basil leaves with 1/2 teaspoon honey each of 2 rocks glasses until leaves are crushed and berries are soft and juicy. Add 1.5 ounces vodka in each glass then add 1/2 cup kombucha to each. Fill to the top with more ice and stir to combine. Garnish with basil leaves and serve immediately.

Mike Dietz is an impressive and versatile artist. His work is technically beautiful and always fun to look at. He has worked in a wide variety of media from stop-motion animation to flash cartoons, from book illustration to video games. His work is prominently seen in great video game hits such as Earthworm Jim, The Neverhood, and Skullmonkeys (one of my personal favorites). As if that weren't enough, he has created his own animation production company called Slappy Pictures through which he creates many tasty animated goodies. I recently had the honor of corresponding with Mr. Dietz. The following words I have found to be both informative and insightful. Enjoy.
Tommy: What was your childhood like?
Mike: Pretty normal suburban America stuff. A lot of cartoons. Lots of drawing. Lots of sugar. Mostly Quisp, Pop Tarts and Blow-Pops. A great family that has been there and supported everything I've ever done in life.
Tommy: Why cartoons of all things?
Mike: Most of my earliest memories involve cartoons, either watching them or drawing them -- both actually. I don't really remember a time when drawing wasn't a big part of my life, so becoming an artist of some sort was inevitable. Cartoons and humor were what I responded to early, when I was developing my love of drawing, so that's what I drew. I first copied my favorite cartoon characters, but quickly moved on to inventing my own stuff as well. Later in life, when I was studying the Disney stuff, I realized the value of life drawing and traditional artistic training. Although I enjoy that as well, I still see it as a means to improve my cartooning.
Tommy: What kind of training did you receive?
Mike: I went to college and studied advertising design and illustration, but it wasn't until after college that I took up animation. I learned to animate from three guys -- first Shawn McLean, and then Ed Schofield and Doug TenNapel. Those guys didn't teach me outright, but instead we all learned together by developing an atmosphere of experimentation, honest critiques, and hard work. Shawn and I went in together on an old vcr based pencil test machine, and we'd sit around animating tests and looking at each other's work, trying to get better. Eventually we got a laser disc player, which was great because it allowed us to easily study animation frame by frame at a true 24fps, instead of getting that blurry interlacing when you frame by frame on a vcr. We spent hours and hours watching animation frame by frame like that, sketching from the screen. It's like taking a class with Milt Kahl, or Ken Harris, or Irv Spence.
Tommy: What influences your work?
I'm influenced by life all around us. The way people move, the way they behave, the way they treat each other, the way they think. There's so much to observe, everywhere, if you just look. From the mechanical, as in the way someone walks, to the emotional, like the way a child looks at you when they're lying, you just store this all away and hope you're able to pull it back up when you need it in your work. Our lives are full of all sorts of media as well, we're bombarded from all sides, and I think we all respond and attempt to emulate things that strike a chord with us. I know as a kid I saw Jungle Book and I fell in love with the way they drew hair. I immediately tried to draw hair the same way, and I found myself looking at people's hair, trying to see if I could find shapes similar to those I saw in Mowgli's hair.
Tommy: Tell me a real life story that's somehow related to making you into the man you are today.
Mike: Well, it's not art related, but one time I went to the supermarket
with my dad. I was probably about 7 or 8 years old. My dad was at the
checkout, paying for the couple items he picked up while I waited over
by the gumball machines, wishing I had a quarter to get a superball or
something cool like that. There was a cigarette machine there, so I
casually hit the coin return button, fantasizing I might score a few
coins from some smoker who was in a hurry to light up and forgot their
change. Well, I hit that button, and every coin in that machine came
pouring out into the tray at the bottom, spilling over onto the floor
-- it was like I hit the jackpot at Vegas. As you can imagine, my third
grade brain exploded with joy. And to top it off, as I looked around, I
saw that no one had noticed the coins pouring out -- I could just fill
my pockets and no one would ever know. I couldn't believe my good
Well, my dad came over and saw the coins. He calmly told me to collect them all up, had me bring them over to the cashier, explain what happened and hand over the money. I was crushed. I fell silent as we walked to the car, stunned by the sudden rise and fall of my fortunes, when my dad glanced over and said, "Jeez, you'd think that guy would have at least let you keep a couple quarters, just to reward your honesty. He's probably gonna just pocket it all himself."
Well, it may sound hokey, but my dad gave me a great lesson about right and wrong that day. Doing the right thing is usually much harder than doing the wrong thing, you rarely get any reward beyond the satisfaction of knowing you made the honest choice, and more often than not, you'll be surrounded by people who profit from making the dishonest choice. But my dad was proud of me, and that's worth more than a pocket full of quarters any day.
Tommy: How did you get involved with the Neverhood and Skullmonkeys?
Mike: Doug, Ed and I met at Virgin Games, and after that we worked on the Earthworm Jim games at Shiny. By that point, as I mentioned above, we'd developed a strong working relationship, as well as a friendship, so when Doug set out to start his own company, it was a no brainer that Ed and I would join him in the venture. I got a taste of starting up a studio when we set up Shiny, but the Neverhood was even more exciting, because none of us had ever done any real stop motion before, nor had we ever done a PC game.
Tommy: What is your favorite medium to work in?
Mike: Give me pencil and paper and I'm happy. I enjoy sculpting characters in clay as well. I love all forms of animation -- traditional, stop motion, CG -- as they all have their unique challenges, but I'm happiest when I get to draw. I love that process.
Tommy: What was your experience like working on Earthworm Jim?
Mike: It was fantastic. Imagine yourself as someone just discovering the joys of animation. Then imagine being given a budget to create an animation department however you'd like, and you hire people like Ed Schofield and Doug TenNapel. Then you hire hungry, talented assistants like Eric Ciccone and Mike Pilotti. Then you all get to sit around all day, learning from one another, improving your skills, all while producing a funny, cartoony, character based platform game at a time when those were the darlings of the industry. Pretty sweet.
Tommy: What led you to create Slappy Pictures?
Mike: It was just a natural extension of my career path. I had been freelancing, starting up companies and collaborating with great artists and animators. Slappy Pictures allows me to continue that course, retaining a reasonable amount of control over what I work on and who I work with.
Tommy: What would you like to see happen in your future?
Mike: I want to continue to learn and grow. There's always room to learn, room to improve. To that end I hope I can continue to work on fun projects with talented people who inspire me to be a better artist. It's been a while since Doug, Ed and I have all worked on a project together. We're always on the lookout for the right opportunity to make that happen again, and sooner or later we'll find something that makes sense. Hopefully sooner.
Tommy: This was great! Thank you so much, Mr. Dietz, for sharing your time and thoughts.

Alex Iwobi is no doubt one of Nigeria's best performers in Europe today and it is expected that the Arsenal man will play at the highest level for many years to come. The Super Eagles star has been named the third best U25 midfielder in Europe's top five leagues in one key stat. Though the Gunners number 17 has been criticized in recent games, especially against Manchester City on Sunday, a new performance indicator published by Ashwin Raman of Football Whispers suggests the Super Eagles star has lived up to expectations this season.
Raman analyzed the matches in the Premier League, La Liga, Bundesliga, Ligue 1 and Serie A using advances stats and has ranked the top 20 midfielders and attacking midfielders with 850+ minutes for open play xG+xA/90. It is a methodology of giving marks to each shot or pass and adding them to get a number, showing how much a player could / should have been decisive, on average per match.
The top midfielder is Diogo Jota of Wolverhampton Wanderers (0.47) followed by RB Leipzig's Marcel Sabitzer (0.43), then Iwobi at 0.43. Tottenham Hotspur's Dele Alli (0.42) and Man City's Bernardo Silva (0.42) complete the top five.
Bordeaux number ten Samuel Kalu has revealed that the player that he gets along with the most in the Super Eagles setup is Arsenal star Alex Iwobi. The versatile winger has admitted that he was flattered to be handed a call-up to the national team after the 2018 World Cup after he was snubbed during his time in Belgium with Gent.
"I was very flattered to be called by Rohr to play with the Super Eagles. It was a long time since I expected that, " Kalu was quoted as saying by Girondins4ever.com. "The invitation did not come while I was in Gent, I told myself that I needed to work even more."
He added : "I was very well accepted and get along very well with my teammates, especially with Alex Iwobi. We have a lot of quality players on the pitch, I am confident that we can with the Africa Cup of Nations in June."
Kalu, 21, has started all the competitive matches played by the Super Eagles since the end of the 2018 World Cup, against Seychelles, Libya (2) and South Africa, and has been directly involved in three goals.
In other Nigerian football news, Chidozie Awaziem,22, has been named in Whoscored.com Team of the Week for the latest round of matches played in the Turkish Super Lig. The Nigeria international made his full debut for Rizespor in a 1-0 win at BB Erzurumspor on Sunday after joining the club in the January transfer window.
Awaziem has been included in the team after his impressive display, helping goalkeeper Akkan to post his fourth shutout of the season. The Porto loanee is the youngest player included in the Team of the Week and was partnered in central defense by Istanbul Basaksehir's Epureanu in a 4-4-2 formation.
Awaziem made six clearances, one tackle, one interception and won four aerial duels against a BB Erzurumspor side that contained international teammate Emem Eduok. He made only two appearances for Porto's first team in Cup competitions before he was sent on loan to Rizespor.

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
Sadly, I am going to return these.
We tend to have more leaks (both wee and poop).
Poop smell seeps through and baby clothes end up smelling.
Wish Huggies had kept their previous nappies.
I think this is a global change, as they delisted the boys in South Africa whilst I was over there for work.
Now they are gone in Australia :(
Have to find an alternative now. Been using the different sizes boys ultimates for the last two years :(
