We have two sister entities both of which are public charities founded by bar association members. One is the Gloucester County Legal Education Association (GCLEA) created to provide continuing education for the legal profession enabling us to better serve the public. Attorneys, judges, and experts in various fields volunteer their time and expertise to present these seminars.
Our other charity, the Gloucester County Bar Foundation, sponsors a Law Day luncheon honoring the high school students who competed in the mock trial program. It holds a Red Cross Blood Drive, and provides teddy bears to small children who must testify in court. The Foundation awards academic scholarships to local high school students; conducts an essay contest with a cash prize going to the winner; and hosts a "breakfast with Santa" for the foster children (and their families) of our county. Attorneys shop for and wrap gifts, which are presented to the children by Santa during the breakfast celebration. Our Foundation's charitable endeavors are funded by contributions from bar association members and from the generous support of businesses within our community.

City Paint Phoenix 21- "El Salvador"
While the overriding subject matter, philosophy, or world-view is not one that I personally endorse, I can't help but acknowledge the artwork as noteworthy, especially given that it's on the side of a building in inner-city Phoenix.
Situated on the south-facing wall of Buster's Market at 603 N 15th Avenue, just west of downtown Phoenix proper, this is an image that I have seen more than a couple of times over three years ago. Conducting field-work provides ample opportunity to participate in the sensory experience of the local culture.
I could have waited a few seconds longer to make the first photograph without a person in it, but I specifically wanted him there to offer perspective to scale, etc. For what it's worth, the building has been around since 1926 and cannot help but be an important source of groceries and other necessities for neighborhood residents, as there is not a supermarket within a few miles.
And for those interested, the artist's information is provided below…"Enuf" is a local man named Francisco Garcia and he and this mural are featured in this Phoenix New Times article. If you're not compelled to click on the link, I will provide that the mural is actually entitled "Jesus Saves," and the artist claims that it is something of a self-portrait that was inspired by the "Forgiven" painting by Thomas Blackshear.
And lastly, if you'd like to view more street-art from Phoenix and Salt Lake City, you can click on this link to be taken to a continuous scroll of posts featuring beautiful murals and art work from both cities.
City Paint Phoenix 20 – Hiding…maybe…?
I haven't been near Roosevelt Row in some time…so it was a pleasant surprise to find some new (?) work.
This single mural is on the east-facing wall of 407 E Roosevelt Street in what is essentially downtown Phoenix…on what I understand to be an art gallery named "modified/arts." I don't know the name of the mural or exactly what the artist is conveying…but I don't want to, either…the possibilities and what they strike in my mind are enough….
The artist is Hugo Medina. Please click on his name for more information about him and his work.
City Paint Phoenix 19 – New "Krank" Mural
You might remember that we met this artist almost two years ago in my post titled, "Cabezas Curiosas." It appears that Tyson Krank has been busy again….
I happened to drive through the alley behind the Laird Apartments, at 317 West McDowell Road in Phoenix, a couple of months ago to take another look at the Southwest Goddess mural that I shared here in February, 2015. What a nice surprise to find this bit of a treasure just waiting to be appreciated. The time of day brought the shadows of the power lines, as well as the over-brightness noticed on the right half of the above image….
Eyes like dark pools…..fantastic detail wrought with spray paint.
Iphound art….
If you'd like to see more posts on street-art/building murals, you can scroll to the bottom of the page and click Street Art – Graffiti under the Categories widget to see more posts containing images of artwork from both Phoenix and Salt Lake City.
City Paint Phoenix 18 – Fernando's Alignment Shop
I haven't had any new hiking adventures of late, but I did come across a nice mural the other day on my lunch-time walk. This one was kind of a surprise, as I literally drive past the place every other day or so and had not seen it. This mural is on the west side of Fernando's Alignment Shop at 1946 E Roosevelt Street, a bit east of downtown and three real blocks away from my workplace. There are other lesser-quality paintings on a couple of the other walls, so it was something of a treat to find this one.
I don't get involved in politics on my blog and I'm not going to do so now, but it appears that this mural is in support of the "#nodapl" movement…which you can read about here and here, pages that present both sides of the issue.
My sharing of the mural here is simply to share the mural…the street/building art that I have found in Phoenix.
The second, third, and fourth images are the left, center, and right panels of the mural….
And the following gallery is simply a set of close-up images focusing on separate sections….
In attempting to give credit to the artist, I researched the name/label that we can see in the far right, lower section of the mural, something that looks like "Gua Che Collection 2016," and couldn't find anything relating to a particular artist's collection. It appears that "gouache" is simply a type of painting…anyway, here it is…..yet another example of iphound art in Phoenix….enjoy.
City Paint Phoenix 17 – Tribute to Bowie
When a couple of you mentioned that the man in the last installment of City Paint Phoenix looked like David Bowie, it reminded me that I had previously observed a section of city wall that had actually been decorated with images that were very distinctly Bowie.
The mural is located at 1715 N 7th Street in Phoenix, about one block north of McDowell Road for any local readers….
While I was never a fan, I understand that David Bowie was an iconic figure in the music world for a period that spanned decades.
So instead of blabbing on and on about the guy and his career from any research that I would have had to conduct in order to do so, I will simply offer that I find the mural and the skill of the artist to be rather compelling….
And lastly, to give proper credit for the work, I will close the post with a panel sharing the artist's information…Maggie Keane…please click on her highlighted name to learn a little more about her.
As always, thank you for visiting and viewing another presentation of iPhound beauty…. If you'd like to view other presentations of street art from both Phoenix and Salt Lake City, you can click on this link to be taken to a continuous scroll of the posts.
City Paint Phoenix 15 – Inspiration
Found in an alleyway where people park their garbage cans so the collection service can do their thing and haul away the waste. There was a stretch of decorated wall that ran more than 100 yards deep into the alley…the backsides of backyard walls in a mid-city residential area. The art was created as part of Paint Phx 2015.
City Paint Phoenix 13 – Muscle Man of Roosevelt Community Church
Appearing on the east-facing wall of the Roosevelt Community Church at 924 N. 1st Street, in Phoenix, this familiar sight finally became subject for one of my stops during a photographic excursion that included the abstract net-art that I featured in this earlier post, Her Secret is Patience. This was a rather fruitful venture, as it provided fodder for at least another five City Paint Phoenix features that will appear here in the next several weeks.
I won't claim to have any understanding, knowledge, or insight into the meaning of the mural or its significance on the side of a church building whose congregation purports to be open-minded and accepting of all peoples, etc., etc., but I will suggest that maybe it has something to do with the connectedness of the members of the human species, as displayed by the red-meat that we all possess beneath our variously hued external coverings of skin…rising from the dust of the earth…and then, maybe…our spirit/energy/soul/etc. transcending our terrestrial trappings and going out into the ether to join the rest of the cosmos…etc., etc., and so on…I don't know. I already said that…I just don't know. But here it is anyway, an intriguing mural along Roosevelt Row, another contribution to the local street-art scene.
The only artist attribution I could find for the mural was a single article in a local newspaper that provided three names – Bishop Ortega, Larry Valencia, and Anthony Vasquez.
As always, I hope you've enjoyed this latest addition to the City Paint Phoenix street art series…and I thank you for visiting. I think it would be fun to hear/read what you think of the mural and what it might mean. I know there are several friends here who have extensive experience in the art world…so please feel free to share your thoughts….
City Paint Phoenix 12 – Cabezas Curiosas
Driving through the city on my way to work a few weeks ago, I happened to look south and spied a couple of faces staring back at me. I had time to spare before I had to clock-in at the office, so I parked the truck on a side street and took a little walk with my camera.
Moving a little closer, and a little to the east to get the tree out of the way….
I walked down the street a bit and attempted to approach the mural from the property entrance to the left of the mural and found that there was yet more….
Three more faces, two of the masked people and….a snowman? Given that this wall was right at the entrance to the parking lot of a small apartment building, there was no problem gaining access and taking a few closer shots.
Enjoy the gallery….and remember that you can click on any image to be taken to a sort of slide-show that allows you to view each image in a larger format.
As I was heading back to the truck, I happened to glance across the street and found yet another Cabeza Curiosa mural….
I found these murals on buildings located at the intersection of 7th Street and Pierce, just east of downtown proper in Phoenix, Arizona. As you can see in three of the images above, the artist is listed as "@t_krank" on Twitter, Tyson Krank, and you can follow this link to a short article about him in one of the local newspapers.
I hope you enjoyed this latest presentation of the City Paint Phoenix series. You can see other posts of Phoenix's street art, and Salt Lake City's, as well, by scrolling to the bottom of the page, finding the "Categories" widget, and clicking on "Street Art – Graffiti."
City Paint Phoenix 11 – Film Bar abstract
I found this mural quite by accident a little over a month ago. I had intentionally taken a different route to work so that I could photograph a particular mural, and afterwards, I happened to spy this bit of purple and blue decorating a wall a couple of blocks away. So, at the risk of being late to the office and missing the "timely punch" of the clock, I stopped and made a few more hasty images. The mural is located on the north wall of a downtown theater called the "Film Bar." It is located at 812 North 2nd Street, which makes it about two miles from my workplace…and just down the road a little bit from the area that I have mentioned here on several occasions, Roosevelt Row, a showcase of local street art and culture.
This first gallery shows the complete mural and then the sections, moving from left to right….
This second gallery presents some greater detail in isolation form….
Walking around the building to where I had seen some "graffiti-type" art decorating a trash dumpster, I found this surplus image on the east-facing wall…obviously touched with the morning's sun and companion shadows.
The last photograph shows the signature of the artist, Joe Rael, whom you might remember from an earlier post, City Paint Phoenix 2 – Hair Pollution.

City Paint Phoenix 10 – Nuestra Senora del Desierto
Here is yet another of El Mac's murals that one can find in Phoenix. You can see some of his other work in City Paint Phoenix 3, 6, 7, and City Paint 4 and 17 in Salt Lake City….and you can get to those other posts by scrolling to the bottom right corner of this page and clicking on Street Art – Graffiti under the Categories widget. This particular mural is located on the south and street-facing side of Love and Hate Tattoo and Piercing, located at 322 West McDowell Road. You can click on their highlighted name to be taken to their webpage…if you're interested.

Today started out up early and out to wally world to pick up an iron and board to iron my pretty new blouses (gave my old ones to daughter long ago) It turns out those pretty blouses have to be hand washed & drip dried-read wrinkles. I also got a food processer and kaki pants to go with one blouse striped that color. Turns out early morning is a great time to go, got 1st parking, 1st checkout and help! I had waited on my breakfast till I got home.
I had planned on turkey bacon first to help slow down digestion of the new French Toast recipe from a new cookbook I'd been wanting to try. I had planned a physically active day and felt good about my choice. A special treat, planned in advanced. I took my gluten free bread out to thaw before I left. So my first turkey bacon was better tasting to me than pork bacon. So good-right up until I upchucked it all. I was sick about an hour. I'm pretty sure from all the pollen this year with the drought & all. I exhausted myself and ended up in bed napping.
I didn't wake up till 3PM! So this delicious recipe from "200 gluten-free recipes" by Louise Blair ended up being my breakfast-lunch. Actually I've only had grapes and ginger tea ever since. It's almost midnight as I write. As a recipe review I am in love. I just didn't believe free bread would work-but it did. I did sub in stevia for sugar (just a pinch). I also had fresh raspberries on the side-though her sauce does sound divine and is included here. I'm hoping the protein in the egg was enough for my glycemic load. I had 2 crust less pieces, but GF bread is small. So I cut recipe in half but gave full here.
As a Gabriel Method eater these days I no longer fear butter (organic grass fed) or eggs( organic free range). As luck would have it the cutest tiny jars of low glycemic index raw (tiny honeycomb pieces & all) Acacia honey arrived while I was napping to use on my toast. I wanted these tiny jars to have to take with my when I go out. I know you will enjoy these. Thank goodness we don't count fat & calories on GM!!!
French Toast
2 eggs beaten (best if can to use free range organic if can)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup milk ( another organic-free range splurge of mine-but then is it splurging when it comes to our health?)
I used a pinch stevia -the recipe called for 1 tablespoon superfine sugar
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
4 slices of gluten free bread
2 table spoons butter.
Wisk together the eggs, vanilla, milk, stevia, & cinnamon in a shallow dish. Place the slices of bread in the mixture, turning to coat both sides.
Heat the butter in a nonstick skillet. Use a spatula to remove the soaked bread from the dish and fry the slices for 2 minutes on each side (watch it maybe not that long) until golden.
For Applesauce & Raspberries:
to serve as an accompaniment, heat 2 tablespoons butter in a skillet, add 6 cored and sliced dessert apples, and fry for 2-3 minutes. Sprinkles over 1 tablespoon light brown sugar, 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon and 4 oz raspberries and cook gently for 1-2 minutes. Serve over the toast sprinkled with extra superfine sugar.

Once again I have failed you. I've flown all the way to Buenos Aires and there are no photos of steak. You'd think by now you'd be used to this kind of disappointment. You'd expect a switcheroo. But, I promise this Buenos Aires bakery in Recoleta is more than worthy of my first post from Argentina this August.
The bakery in question - well, patisserie, to be exact - is called Smeterling. Not very Argentine in name, but oh what magical delights await the Porteño with a sweet tooth.
I caught an eyeful of their tempting treats through the shop's window and in I went. The scent of freshly baking macarons filled the air. What a welcoming morning aroma!
It didn't take long for me to settle on a gorgeous pastry enrobed with crunchy cornflakes and chocolate...
It reminded me of Jacques Torres' bags of chocolate-covered cornflakes and Cheerios. Besides, cereal in the AM, nothing wrong with that. Heck, I was having a cup of coffee alongside. Sounds like breakfast to me!
Let's say it together: "dessert for desayuno." I think that'll catch on - especially if you're hitting Smeterling in the morning.
I plunged my fork into the crackling flakes and descended into a thick chocolate mousse and crisp meringue and nut base. A few sips of my cortado, a few more luscious bites, and I'd laid waste to what is purportedly the most important meal of the day.
I was sated. I was still. But then the intoxicating scent of lemon zest started to take over the small nook where I was sitting...
Zesting for what, I didn't know, but odds are it was for something delicioso. Should I stick around and wait for whatever it was to come out of the oven?
It took all my will to tear myself away, avoiding the urge to take a few little cakes and cookies back to the apartment for "dessert for dinner" as well.
And, how about "dessert for desayuno?" That's most definitely gonna become a thing.

Just over a year ago at a White House press conference, American President Barrack Obama stated that:
"a red line for us is we start seeing a whole bunch of chemical weapons moving around or being utilized," the president said a year ago last week. "That would change my calculus. That would change my equation."
Now that the use of chemical weapons has come up many feel that the president has trapped himself into responding. But the original comment does not promise military intervention and a question some journalists are asking is why were chemical weapons the 'red line' to begin with?
Over 100,000 people have been killed in Syria since the conflict began over two years ago with bullets and bombs. Conventional weapons are just as capable of mass death as chemical ones so why this line in the sand?
Obama defended this distinction to CNN last week:
"When you start seeing chemical weapons used on a large scale… that starts getting to some core national interests that the United States has, both in terms of us making sure that weapons of mass destruction are not proliferating, as well as needing to protect our allies, our bases in the region."
Phrases such as "National interests", "protect our allies" and especially "weapons of mass destruction" cannot help but call some of Bush's rhetoric to mind.
But Michael Rubin, a former Pentagon official argues that chemical attacks if proven, must be taken more seriously than conventional attacks because chemical agents disperse to affect large numbers of people and "can produce horror for a lifetime." He goes on to say that "it's a slippery slope", if a chemical weapons attack goes unchecked, what about some other form of weapon of mass destruction – a biological or nuclear attack?
But it can hardly be said that cluster munition or drone strikes are somehow less devastating or that they could not just as easily lead to weapons escalation.
Arguments could equally be made that intervention increases the likelihood of retaliation. Al Jazeera's White House correspondent, Patty Culhane, questions the Obama administration's assumptions. She writes:
"The administration says the US National Security is threatened by the possibility that the Assad regime will use chemical weapons on allies or US bases – do you have any evidence that they plan to take that step? You've warned chemical weapons could be given to "terrorist groups that would harm the US" – how does a military intervention make that less likely and not more?"
The US are not the only country saber rattling in the direction of Syria. British PM David Cameron however lost his parliamentary vote on military intervention. France is also threatening a military role. French PM Jean-Marc Ayrault said "France is determined to punish use of chemical weapons by the Assad regime."
The Arab League however issued a statement that they believed that no intervention should take place that is not UN led.
A question that should also be asked at this point is whether a military intervention by US or France or any nation's army would reduce the suffering of the people of Syria or even reduce the risk of chemical weapons being used again.
Also another question that is not being ask is what would the US government do if it was discovered that the rebels were responsible? Will the US military still intervene in the country? Will they intervene on behalf of the government?
That seems unlikely.
"There are few things more bizarre than watching people advocate that another country be bombed even while acknowledging that it will achieve no good outcomes other than safeguarding the "credibility" of those doing the bombing. Relatedly, it's hard to imagine a more potent sign of a weak, declining empire than having one's national "credibility" depend upon periodically bombing other countries."
