No. 934:
There are four articles allows police Manglerud will bring proceedings against me in Oslo District Court! And have me imprisoned when I NEVER WILL ACCEPT BOT, we do not live in North Korea, but in Norway with religion and freedom of speech!
Glad that we have Religious and freedom of speech here in Norway. Here they have allowed to express themselves, and believe what you want.
And what is harassment? There are mock, just as Oslo police do. They taunt Religious and freedom of speech. And that they deride God with their behavior when this is about to warn against remarriage among the believers, and when preachers. And that the false apostles shall be revealed, not least a type Torp which also has clear psychopathic traits in my and many others' opinion!
A public person should and must be warned against!
This costs, not least lawyer and any legal costs. Please pray for the case and me in this time!
Photo of Kim Jong-un as I get a feeling had matched perfectly as leader in Manglerud police, but it is if the weird Day Paulsen now that fronts the case against me and God's word that remarriage is sin will not be allowed to preach. This fits perfectly course concept liar and the gjengifede false Apostle January Aage Torp who have made false accusations against me that the police have unfortunately been deceived by voluntary or not? I do not know, but powerful wise they have become!
Taking just one of the articles that are out on the web and I think police rotate with the other accusations, so much grasp of spiritual things they have obviously not!
No.. 341:
Pastor and Apostle Jan Åge Torp in Oslo Church and all other gjengiftede as a Christian and still preachers of our time King Uzziah was a leper!
The church in Ephesus heard Jesus praise when they revealed such false apostles as Jan Hanvold, Jan Åge Torp m. More. (Leprosy in Scripture typifies sin. When one GT had paragons, therefore it is in the NT admonition right to "replace" the word leper with sin).
Joh. Revelations. 2. 2 I know thy works, and thy labor, and thy patience, and that you can not tolerate evil; you have tested those who say they are apostles, and are not, and hast found them liars; 3 and you have perseverance and have endured for my name's sake, and you are not fainted.
It is strange that the false apostles calling himself Apostles both today and 2000 years ago, this is probably not a coincidence but the same demons who served in the false apostles in days of old still works today. It makes me think of what happened during the AA Allen meetings in the US when he drove out demons of religious and Christian name during a meeting. It was if I remember correctly there was a person who said that he had the same demons as Saul who later became Paul. Competent said that he had a legion ie say about 6000 demons. Wonder how many acting today among the false Apostles, there is no gain. Never be fooled by big smiles and eloquence, it was something that could speak until he was saved then it was Paul.
2. Chron. 26. 1. And all the people of Judah took and made Uzziah, who was sixteen years old, king in his father Amaziah place. 2 He did Elot to a fortified city and won it back to Judah, after the king had lain down with his fathers. 3 Uzziah was sixteen years old when he became king, and reigned fifty and two years in Jerusalem; His mother's name Jekilja and was from Jerusalem. 4 He did what was right in the sight, just as his father Amaziah had done. 5 And he sought God while Zechariah lived, who had understanding in God visions; and so long as he sought the LORD, God made him to prosper. 6 And he went out and fought against the Philistines and broke down the wall of Gath, and the wall of Jabneh; and he built cities in Ashdod and elsewhere in the land of the Philistines. 7 God helped him against the Philistines and against the Arabs who lived in Gur-baal, and the Meunim. 8 And the Ammonites gave gifts to Uzziah, and his name spread even to Egypt; for he became exceedingly. 9 Uzziah built towers in Jerusalem at the corner gate, and at the Valley Gate and at the angle, thus making these places firm and strong. / 10 He built towers in the desert, and digged many wells; for he had great flocks in both lowland and høisletten and he had farmers and vineyard men on the mountains and the oceans; for agriculture lay him at heart. 11 Uzziah had an army of fighting men, that went out to war by bands, numbered and counted by scribe Jeiel and overseer Masseiah under the leadership of Hananiah, one of the king's captains. 12 Two thousand and six hundred were whole number of the mighty men who were family heads, 13 and under them was an army of three hundred and seven thousand and five hundred, that made war with mighty power to help the king against the enemy. 14 This entire army Uzziah prepared shields and spears and helmets and breastplates, and bows and sling stones. 15 In Jerusalem he made aligned war machines, be upon the towers and Murhjørnet to shoot arrows and great stones. And his name spread far abroad; for he was marvelously helped, till he was strong. 16 But when he was strong, he was overconfident in his heart, so he transgressed; he disobeyed the Lord his God, and went into the temple of the LORD to burn incense on the altar of incense. 17 Azariah the priest went in after him and with him fourscore priests of Jehovah, brave men. 18 And they rose up against King Uzziah and said to him: It is not for thee, Uzziah, to burn incense to the Lord, but to the priests the sons of Aaron, that are consecrated to it. Go out of the sanctuary! For you have been disobedient, and it becomes thee not to honor the Lord God. 19 Then Uzziah was wroth. He held a censer in his hand and would just about to burn incense; but he was wroth with the priests, the leprosy in his forehead, as he stood before the priests in the house of the altar of incense. 20 And Azariah the chief priest and all the priests looked upon him, saw that he was leprous in his forehead. They thrust him out from thence; and himself hasted also to go out, because Jehovah had smitten him. 21 king was Uzziah leper equal to his dying day, and he lived in a house for himself as a leper, for he was excluded from the house of the Lord. His son Jotham did the king's house and gave the country's people. 22 Now the rest of the acts of Uzziah, both first and in his later days, the prophet Isaiah the son of Amoz, written op. / 23 So Uzziah slept with his fathers, and they buried him with his fathers in the burial which belonged to the kings; for they said, He is a leper. And his son Jotham reigned in his place.
Espen Ottosen: Should resign as pastor
One of the very few within Christendom who have dared to question both with Pastor Torp real and personal lifestyle is Espen Ottosen, information manager of Norwegian Lutheran Mission. In several posts on Our Lands value debate justifies why he Torp should no longer be able to function as a pastor:
I have expressed on twitter that I think it is regrettable that Jan-Aage Torp not stop as pastor. The reason is not only the story that his son stands out in today's edition of A Magazine. My reason is more holistic. Here are some words.
Jan-Aage Torp is pastor. Also expression apostle employed about his service. Either way, it is natural to focus on what Paul should require of an overseer. Here are some key verses from 1 Tim 3.2 to 7:
"Now the overseer must be above reproach, husband of one wife, vigilant, sober, hospitable, able to teach, not a drunkard, not violent but gentle, not combative or covetous. He must manage his own house well, having his children with all chastity. Whoever does not know how to rule his own house, how can he take care of God's church? He must not be a recent convert, or he will not be inflated and fall under condemnation of the devil. He must also have good testimony from those who are outside, lest he be ashamed of being caught in the devil's snare. "
These words presents great ideals. Let me therefore first clarify that I (obviously) do not mean that a Christian leader should be perfect. We are all sinners. The Bible says thankfully much that God can also use weak and erring people. Moreover, I believe that the words of Paul represents a measure of relevance and importance. We have no right to cancel the meaning of these words because no one is infallible. A Christian leader depends on trust. Therefore there must be a connection between life and teachings.
Regarding Jan-Aage Torp, I believe that he himself has weakened his confidence in a fundamental way, especially in recent years. I think it is unpleasant to argue. But I think actually it's even harder to be completely silent - for through his behavior he discredited the whole Christian church in Norway.
The latest example comes the story that her son now says. It is simply appalling, although I take into account that the media does not give a very balanced presentation, though Torp has been unable to provide an equivalent. Many Christian leaders have experienced that their children have gone away from the faith. Some will suggest that in itself disqualifies a pastor. I do not think so. Also pastor children must have the opportunity to choose their own faith. But the story of Anders Torp is very special, also because his son today has broken off all contact with his father. It weakens obviously confidence Torp.
Even more serious is this page Torp today admits that the theology he made sure that his son was greeted with was unhealthy. To a certain extent it is good that Torp self-criticism. The problem is that there are limits to how many times a person can regret greatly their miscalculations - and still retain confidence. Torp prophesied bloodbath during the Olympics in Athens, which he later regretted. In today's articles sorry he both contact with the Danish "Father's house" and with "åndeutdrivere" from Zambia. It is then good reason to ask whether Torp has shown sufficient spiritual judgment. I do not think so. In addition, I think a lot of the drug found on the websites of Oslokirken and blog Jan-Aage Torp shows that Torp still markets a extremist charismatic. It is very problematic.
A final issue is that Jan-Aage Torp is remarried. This is a difficult point to comment - it relates to privacy Torp. Moreover, I believe it is unreasonable to think that all topics concerning marital status shall be stamped as irrelevant. Paul emphasizes after all such questions in 1 Timothy.
It is probably well known that my basic attitude is that remarriage is wrong. This justifies I with Matt 19.3-10 and some other Bible verses. Meanwhile, I think the question is difficult. Many conservative Christians believe remarriage in some situations may be right. I respect that. But I do think that certain Christian leaders should refrain from remarriage - partly because Paul writes that a leader must be "one woman man."
Finally the text of 1 Timothy 3, Paul writes that a bishop "have good testimony from those who are outside." It must of course not be construed as a Christian leader must be popular and loved. On the contrary, it says a lot in the Bible that whoever preaches the word of God true and straight, must be prepared both resistance, persecution and slander. Also believes Paul therefore that it matters how Christian leaders are perceived by people outside the church. Also at this point I mean Torp fall short. He does not give a good testimony by marrying quite quickly after the divorce with a woman who is more than twenty years younger than himself.
This is a difficult topic. I find it hard to be balanced, accurate and respectful (to Jan-Aage Torp, which undoubtedly is in a very difficult situation and deserves care and intercession). But here was a brief explanation that I mean after all Pastor Torp should quit as pastor. (End of quote). http://blog.janchristensen.net/2011/12/nr-295-informasjonsleder-i-norsk.html
I hit out today Pastor Jan Aage Torp to be abused by him, but I live well with. He believed bl. A I was unkind and nasty when I could speak like about him and Evangelist Emanuel Minos.
Emanuel Minos an opener for demons
When Emanuel Minos repeatedly against his better judgment will open up for such wolves in sheep's clothing as Jan Aage Torp, Jan Hanvold and other gjengiftede preachers, he is a door opener for demons. The demons did not even come up, but they have their henchmen, those who live in rebellion to God's word and will of God.
King Uzziah
Uzziah was 16 years old when he became king - and he was king for 52 years. Here we meet a godly man who sought God and did what was right in the eyes of the Lord. He was raised in a "Christian home" and took good care of their childhood and the legacy from home. The people loved Uzziah, because no one had done so much good for Israel since King Solomon.
King Uzziah had thus a very good start to their race. He had a good "input". But how was the end of his journey? It was the end we should heed. Sure, when Uzziah was at its most powerful, something happens.
Why did Uzziah?
1) Uzziah began to exalt himself. He forgot that true progress has more to do with who we are than what we do. He forgot that it was God who had helped him to the power and glory which he had now achieved.
2) He had not taken the time to build character in their lives. His character was in no way compared to what he had done. It is important to build a strong character in God before you step out into a service to God. If not then it will sooner or later be a character flaw that becomes visible for everyone ...
3) Pride came into his life. Pride always comes before a fall. Uzziah could not bear success. But what is pride?
- Pride is the "mother of all sin" (Lester Sumrall)
- Pride is a spiritual cancer. It eats up opportunities that love and spirit fruits can float.
- Pride is selfish. It has always ego center. ("I am right ...")
- Pride is arrogance. It is to exalt themselves. One expects privileges, one wants to be noticed and be popular.
- Pride is anger. One can not bear reproof but reacts with anger.
In verse 19 we see that Uzziah reacts with anger - typical pride ...
We all need someone corrects us / exhorts us. Ask yourself: How do I receive admonition and correction of other people? The way you accept correction will determine how you end your run!
Uzziah was a leper, and he remained a leper life. He was first called king, but ended up being known as leprosy. There was no longer speaking about what he did in the beginning. What matters is how you finish the race!
This man had ascended the throne at the age of sixteen, destined to become one of the greatest kings of Judah. He received advice from the prophet Zechariah. He received visions from the Lord. He was mighty blessed by God.
The Bible says Uzziah sought the Lord - and God caused him to prosper and become strong: "God helped him ...." (2 Chron 26: 7). ".... His name spread far abroad; for he was marvelously helped, till he was strong." (Verse 15).
Except for Solomon, Uzziah had the best reputation of all the kings of Judah. He was anointed by God. He brought about revival in the land, tearing down idols and walking according to God's word. When this bold king rode his chariot through the streets, he was shown honor and respect. He received gifts and tributes from around the world.
But, Scripture says, ".... when he was strong, he was the pride of his heart, unto their own destruction. He was disobeying the LORD his God, and went into the temple of the LORD to burn incense on the altar of incense." (Verse 16).
Pride overcame this man. He wanted to become a priest in addition to king! In disobedience, Uzziah temple and began to wave the incense before the altar. He received a rebuke for this - and when he pointed an angry finger in response, his hand immediately began to wither. It suddenly became leprous. Uzziah had to be thrown out of the temple of God!
Oh, what a shame! One of the greatest, richest kings in Judah's history now had isolated. He was taken to a small house where he spent the rest of his days as a leper: "Uzziah the king was a leper to his dying day. He lived in a house for himself as a leper, for he was excluded from the house of the Lord ... . "(2 Chron. 26:21).
Uzziah died in isolation - cut off from every blessing from God!
When this once-great man died, multitudes have gathered around him. His passing should have been an honor to God's name. Instead, he died a near-unknown man, his body eaten by leprosy. Uzziah missed his destiny!
Pastor and Apostle Jan Åge Torp in Oslo Church and all other gjengiftede as a Christian and still preachers of our time King Uzziah was a leper!
God's word is very clear, all that is gjengiftede that believers should not be pastors or Apostles as Jan Aage Torp, Jan Hanvold and many of them are. Had they put on the last bench and been like him we read about in Luke gospel should I set time, then it had been a matter between him and God.
Luke 18. 9 He also said this parable to some who trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and despised others: 10 Two men went up into the temple to pray; the one a Pharisee and the other a publican. 11 The Pharisee stood by himself and prayed thus: God! I thank thee that I am not as other men are, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this publican. 12 I fast twice a week, I give tithes of all my income. 13 And the publican, standing afar off, would not even lift up his eyes to heaven, but smote upon his breast, saying, God! weather me a sinner gracious! 14 I tell you, this man went down justified to his house rather than the other; For whosoever exalts himself shall be humbled, and the humbles himself shall be exalted.
But here exalts oneself both Apostles, Pastors, TV founders and I do not know what. Pride and arrogance is. They make themselves so insignificant and so innocent, just they get the flesh and the tank will even into the new life, so they do whatever. False humility calls bible this, not for anything else.
King Uzziah was a leper
King Uzziah was a leper and these people are already lepers and will spread his leprosy wherever they come, therefore scripture says that we will not even pointed in conjunction with these.
1Cor 5:11 But what I wrote to you was that you should not associate with any so-called brother be a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolater, or a railer, or a drunkard, or robber, as not even to eat with him.
We shall in no way take part in their evil deed, if we do it we become accomplice. Emanuel Minos and many others support lepers people who are spiritually wolves in sheep's clothing, I think that's bad! Yes direct sickening and disgusting.
What is the solution?
The solution is simple. Distances you from those who do not live like the word says. And stick to those who live and learn right. This is and remains the solution. All we need God's grace when we all fall short, but it is still rules in the word of God and in the spiritual life with Jesus and in the congregation that we must and will relate to.
Remarriage for preachers makes them impossible to service as pastor and teacher
When we read the Pastoral letters that Paul teaches about this and other places it is clear that gjengiftede preachers believers are unfit for duty. Just like Kon Uzziah was unfit to perform the service that the Levites would do is anyone who chooses to remarry after a breakup. This is not what I or you believe, but spiritual truths and this is also a spiritual law. We allow gjengiftede preachers, then we can just put the door wide open for Satan. Have we given him little finger so he also takes the whole hand, you bet!
Ezra fik all gjengiftede stand - is the solution today also
Ezra 10. 10 Ezra the priest stood up and said to them, Ye have transgressed, and have taken strange wives, and thus has increased in Israel's sake. 11 therefore make confession unto the LORD God of your fathers, and do his will! Separate yourselves from the peoples of the land and from the foreign women! 12 Then answered all the people, saying with a loud voice, as you have said, so must we do. 13 But the people are many, and it is now the rainy season so we are not able to stand out here and this is a work that can not be done in a day or two; there are many of us who have transgressed in this thing. 14 Therefore let our princes stand before all the people, and let all those in our cities who have taken strange wives, meet at scheduled times along with the elders and judges of each town, until we get turned our God burning anger away from us, and this matter is settled. 15 Only Jonathan the son of Asahel and Jahseja, Jahaziah son sat against this, and Meshullam and Shabbethai the Levite helped them. 16 The exiles did so said was, and chose Ezra the priest and his men who were heads of their families, and all of which were mentioned by name, and they came together on the first day of the tenth month to examine the matter, 17 and they were finished with all the men who had taken foreign wives by the first day of the first month. 18 Among the priests the sons of the man who had taken foreign wives; it was: of Jeshua son of Jozadak and his brothers: Maaseiah, Eliezer, Jarib and Gedaliah; 19 they gave their hand that they would put away their wives and sacrifice a ram from the flock as a guilt offering for the sake they had incurred them.
Notice the wording in v. 19: "For the sake they had incurred himself."
The guilt they had incurred itself, that is exactly what Pastor Jan Aage Torp. Pastor Jan Hanvold and all others who are separated as a believer and then afterwards as a believer marry. They incur guilt yourself and anyone else who gets in their vicinity and who stand with them in one way or another. They apply themselves guilt and being involved with them in their evil deed, as it is by what God's word teaches. To marry after a breakup, it is ruling out if one wishes and will be an Apostle, Prophet or indeed a trusted servant of the Lord or handmaid.
Jacob 3. 1. My brothers! not many of you become teachers, seeing ye know that we shall receive heavier judgment!
2. Joh. b. 10 If any man come to you and does not bring this teaching, do not receive him into your house, and him not welcome! 11 for the bidding him welcome, being an accomplice of his evil deeds.
Luke 16 18 Whoever separates himself from his wife and marries another woman commits adultery, and whoever marries a woman who is divorced from her husband commits adultery.
1 Cor. 7. 10 The married I command, yet not I, but the Lord, that a wife should not separate herself from her husband; 11 but she is separated from him, then abiding she being unmarried or be reconciled herself with her husband - and that a man should not divorce his wife.
1 Tim. 5. 8 But if any provide not for his own, and most of his household, he has denied the faith and is worse than an infidel.
Efes. 5. 28 So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself.

them ready made, and of a more final, stereotyped character.
Nevertheless, it is plain we must ascribe both to the brain and body of the new-born infant a far-reaching power of remembering or reproducing things which have already come to their development thousands of times over in the persons of its ancestors. It is in virtue of this that it acquires proficiency in the actions necessary for its existence—so far as it was not already at birth proficient in them—much more quickly and easily than would be otherwise possible; but what we call instinct in the case of animals takes in man the looser form of aptitude, talent, and genius.1 Granted that certain ideas are not innate, yet the fact of their taking form so easily and certainly from out of the chaos of his sensations, is due not to his own labour, but to that of the brain substance of the thousands of thousands of generations from whom he is descended. Theories concerning the development of individual consciousness
1 I interpret this: "There are fewer vibrations persistent within the bodies of the lower animals; those that there are, therefore, are stronger and more capable of generating action or upsetting the status in quo. Hence also they require less accession of vibration from without. Man is agitated by more and more varied vibrations; these, interfering, as to some extent they must, with one another, are weaker, and therefore require more accession from without before they can set the mechanical adjustments of the body in motion."—Ed.
which deny heredity or the power of transmission, and insist upon an entirely fresh start for every human soul, as though the infinite number of generations that have gone before us might as well have never lived for all the effect they have had upon ourselves,—such theories will contradict the facts of our daily experience at every touch and turn.
The brain processes and phenomena of consciousness which ennoble man in the eyes of his fellows have had a less ancient history than those connected with his physical needs. Hunger and the reproductive instinct affected the oldest and simplest forms of the organic world. It is in respect of these instincts, therefore, and of the means to gratify them, that the memory of organised substance is strongest —the impulses and instincts that arise hence having still paramount power over the minds of men. The spiritual life has been superadded slowly; its most splendid outcome belongs to the latest epoch in the history of organised matter, nor has any very great length of time elapsed since the nervous system was first crowned with the glory of a large and well-developed brain.
Oral tradition and written history have been called the memory of man, and this is not without its truth. But there is another and a living memory in the innate reproductive power of brain substance, and without this both writings and oral tradition would be without significance to posterity. The most sublime ideas, though never so immortalised in speech or letters, are yet nothing for heads that are out of harmony with them; they must be not only heard, but reproduced; and both speech and writing would be in vain were there not an inheritance of inward and outward brain development, growing in correspondence with the inheritance of ideas that are handed down from age to age, and did not an enhanced capacity for their reproduction on the part of each succeeding generation accompany the thoughts that have been preserved in writing. Man's conscious memory comes to an end at death, but the unconscious memory of Nature is true and ineradicable: whoever succeeds in stamping upon her the impress of his work, she will remember him to the end of time.
INTRODUCTION TO A TRANSLATION OF THE CHAPTER UPON INSTINCT IN VON HARTMANN's "PHILOSOPHY OF THE UNCONSCIOUS."
I Am afraid my readers will find the chapter on instinct from Von Hartmann's " Philosophy of the Unconscious," which will now follow, as distasteful to read as I did to translate, and would gladly have spared it them if I could. At present, the works of Mr. Sully, who has treated of the "Philosophy of the Unconscious" both in the Westminster Review (vol. xlix. N.s.) and in his work " Pessimism," are the best source to which English readers can have recourse for information concerning Von Hartmann. Giving him all credit for the pains he has taken with an ungrateful, if not impossible subject, I think that a sufficient sample of Von Hartmann's own words will be a useful adjunct to Mr. Sully's work, and may perhaps save some readers trouble by resolving them to look no farther into the " Philosophy of the Unconscious." Over and above
this, I have been so often told that the views concerning unconscious action contained in the foregoing lecture and in " Life and Habit" are only the very fallacy of Von Hartmann over again, that I should like to give the public an opportunity of seeing whether this is so or no, by placing the two contending theories of unconscious action side by side. I hope that it will thus be seen that neither Professor Hering nor I have fallen into the fallacy of Von Hartmann, but that rather Von Hartmann has fallen into his fallacy through failure to grasp the principle which Professor Hering has insisted upon, and to connect heredity with memory.
Professor Hering's philosophy of the unconscious is of extreme simplicity. He rests upon a fact of daily and hourly experience, namely, that practice makes things easy that were once difficult, and often results in their being done without any consciousness of effort. But if the repetition of an act tends ultimately, under certain circumstances, to its being done unconsciously, so also is the fact of an intricate and difficult action being done unconsciously an argument that it must have been done repeatedly already. As I said in "Life and Habit," it is more easy to suppose that occasions on which such an action has been per

Tonight I discovered that a couple of boxes of art supplies and art objects in my
studio spare bedroom art room were infested with the carcasses of many, many small larvae-type bugs. EW. I thoroughly grossed myself out picking thru to see what was salvageable. Unfortunately, a hand-felted wall hanging, a felted rock made from my friend's dog's fur, and possibly some wooden boxes were among the objects that were beyond repair. Bugs eat natural fibers, who knew?
This is actually not the first time I've had an art bug problem. Let me recount for you the times I should have learned my lesson.
1. Honey is Sweet
In the first assignment of the semester for Fiber Arts class, our professor gave us three yards of muslin and instructions to use ONE other material to create a sculpture. I cut my muslin into 5″ squares and chose honey as my supplementary material, stacking the fabric one piece at a time like a honey-muslin lasagna. It turned out pretty awesome, but then the honey dripped onto the floor and the local ant population moved in.
2. Peter Paul Reubens and The Gathering of The Beetles
Later in the Fiber Arts class, our professor took us to see the Peter Paul Reubens cartoons at the Ringling Museum and asked us to recreate an aspect of the paintings out of fiber materials. I chose Gathering of The Manna, recreating the burlap bag held by the crouching figure at the bottom. My twist, though, (and I can't believe I did this) was to fill the bag with manure that I dug out of the New College compost pile. Ahem. Do you know what lives inside manure that has been decomposing in a compost pile? Lots and lots of beetles and creepy-crawlies.
3. Regina and the Resin
Another artist who shared my studio space was doing awesome casting work with resin and soaps, embedding things like hair and My Little Pony parts. She had a bunch of pieces curing — or so I thought — near the sink in a tupperware container, so I lifted the lid to take a peek. The objects which had not fully embedded in the resin this time were chicken hearts. Upon exposure to light and air, squirmy little white creatures (I will not say the name) that feast on rotting, non-fully embedded organic matter swarmed out. SHUDDER.
4. Frog Tonics
I did a whole series of small bottles with linocut labels. They were filled with various odd objects such as teeth, wool, hair, and well, a frog skeleton I found in the library parking lot. Let's just say there is a reason that people bleach bones before making art out of them. Luckily, this issue was well-contained in the bottle, and the bottle is now well-interred in a landfill somewhere.
5. You're Bringing What in Here??
In my New College senior thesis show, I used hay bales in lieu of sculpture stands to display my work. I remember Gail, my advisor with whom I had a love/hate relationship, questioning me with a frown. "You're bringing what in here??" she asked. Three weeks later, I was battling ant colonies and beetles as I cleaned up. (Oh and yes, that is a giant horse hide shown below).
As much as I hate to admit it, Gail's and others' concerns about the materials I used in my art were warranted, and not just from a bug perspective although that is certainly an issue as I discovered today. I have multimedia pieces where I used wood glue to attach materials to the surface, and the glue has yellowed in an unpleasant way. I have paintings that incorporate latex rubber which is now dry and cracking. My encaustic pieces have suffered a good deal of damage over the years being moved from one house to another, and while some are reparable, others are not. And some have clouded due to sun exposure.
I don't know that I would have done it differently, entirely. I embrace the idea that art, like life, is temporary and fleeting and prone to decay. Joseph Beuys, who is my most inspirational artist of all time, talked about how his sculptures are not fixed and finished such that "everything is in a state of change". I'm not interested in having a legacy as an artist (so, like, the stuff doesn't have to hold up until 2179 or anything). Part of the reason I am no longer much of a practicing artist is that I can't bear to keep bringing things into the world and to become responsible for where they go and how they last. But, in some small way I want to acknowledge that Gail was right, and that she was not just picking on me or being mean like I thought at the time. I made that felt piece with my hands, first carding the raw wool for hours and hours and then felting it on the driveway outside the sculpture studio with a hose and a lot of Dr. Bronners soap. It had to stop existing at some point, but at the hand (mouths) of bugs? That just kind of sucks.

Mexican authorities find tunnel at federal facility
Images from a video surveillance camera led Mexican authorities to a suspected smuggling tunnel under construction in Tijuana inside a guarded federal customs facility at the Otay Mesa border crossing, authorities said yesterday.
The incomplete tunnel was nearly 50 feet long and measured 2½ by 2½ feet, according to a statement from the Mexican military. It stopped about 55 yards short of the border, said Lauren Mack, spokeswoman for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
The passageway was first detected by Mexican customs officials reviewing video surveillance that recorded people climbing over a wall in a little-used area, said Carlos Ramirez Escoto, the customs agency's director in Tijuana. That led them to an underground chamber with water valves and a pipe, where they found the tunnel.
The area had been under private security, and the investigation has been turned over to the federal Attorney General's Office, Ramirez said.
In recent years, authorities have found many tunnels of varying size and sophistication that are built to smuggle drugs and people into the United States. In 2006, authorities found a tunnel under a junkyard owned by the Mexican customs agency near the San Ysidro Port of Entry.

Of note: the color codes on the map don't correspond to where it will be warm, really warm, and really really warm. They are the probabilities of being warm. For the wet/dry map, it shows where there are the highest probabilities of it being dry or wet.
More importantly, this outlook shows all the hallmarks of an El Niño winter. El Niño is a warming of the Pacific Ocean waters off the west coast of South America, along the equator. When the waters are warmer, there tends to be a ridge of high pressure between Central America and Hawaii, shunting the jet stream further north across North America. This keeps the coldest air of Canada, up north of the 50-degree north latitude line.
Knowing the pattern we are getting into, we can look back at previous El Niño winters. The most recent one is the Winter of 2015/2016 (or lack of winter for that matter). Here's what happened then:
|December 2015:
|3.5 inches of snow
|0 Days Below Zero
|January 2016
|1.5 inches of snow
|2 Days Below Zero
|February 2016
|6.3 inches of snow
|0 Days Below Zero
|March 2016
|2.9 inches of snow
|0 Days Below Zero
No question about it: That was an extremely warm and dry winter.
Will this upcoming Winter be that extreme? It's certainly too early to tell. And I call your attention to the fact that it takes only one perfect storm track to just dump snow on us. One big snow can really alter the scales in an otherwise lackluster season. But for snow lovers, this is certainly not the best news of the week.

I learned to love you when I was a tot
Delighted in your flowers and your trees,
I fretted when your days were blazing hot
And revelled in your cool tropical breeze.
I've gambolled on your golden sandy shores
And walked your hills and plains when I was young
I've listened to your thunder's rolls and roars,
And cried when I have heard your Anthem sung.
I've watched the sun rise in the early morn,
Poui trees on the mountains like pots of gold,
Seen moon and stars a velvet night adorn…
So blessed in this small corner of the world.
Now when I look at you my heart is sore,
Your rich earth stained by the blood of your sons
So many dead and every day there're more,
When will they lay aside their knives and guns.
Though your beauty's still there for all to see
I hardly recognise you Kairi.
Note… kairi – Amerindian word for island

IZ - Inappropriate Zooming In The News Again...
But this time it's criminal.
According to the prosecution, Mr McCleave used a camera - whose default was normally set to a junction on the Whitewell Road and Shore Road in north Belfast - and directed it into the woman's first floor apartment for a total of 79 minutes over a 26-day period.
The prosecution lawyer told the jury that operators wishing to examine screens more clearly could zoom in using a joystick, and that only one operator at a time could use the joystick to look at a screen.
She told the court that on the afternoon of 12 November 2012, a colleague of Mr McCleave's returned to pod one after being at the gym, and after checking several other cameras, he then dialled up camera 17 - the camera which overlooked the Whitewell Road and Shore Road junction. The lawyer said the colleague "turned to glance at the camera" and immediately noticed that instead of being pointed at the normal interface area, it was "directed in a window of, clearly, a private dwelling somewhere within the scope of camera 17".
Upon further investigation, the colleague discovered that this camera was being operated and monitored from pod three, where Mr McCleave was sitting, and the same image was displayed on that pod.
though he has put forth this convincing alibi:
When asked about the incident on 12 November when the woman was seen walking round her apartment in a state of undress, Mr McCleave said he had gone to make a cup of tea, he must have left his monitor on and suggested that he did not have control of camera 17.
Apparently camera 17 is not the only thing he didn't have control of. But the prosecution alleges other victims as well:
She said other footage attributed to Mr McCleave over that period included the young woman "going about her business" in the flat and out on the street as well "concentrating" on other women.
Trial pending, but since there is apparently no privacy masking, he may not be the first and one wonders how many other victims are out there, blithely unaware that they have been "concentrated" upon and zoomed ruthlessly...
Thanks for sharing. I bet this is an especially significant risk in the UK as they have so many actively monitored city CCTV cameras.
"..but since there is apparently no privacy masking,"
If the camera is a PTZ, how exactly would you configure a privacy mask?
Privacy Masking guidelines are covered by the BSIA.
It doesn't surprise me unfortunately. The operators should have privacy masked anything that smacked of being able to view a private dwelling. This is what we had to do in the UK.

Falling Out
Dear you,
In this haze of everything that has been my second to last semester of college, one of the only things I can remember clearly (besides my thesis) are those fading feelings for you.
I don't know when it started; heck, I don't even think I wanted it to happen.
Or did I?
See, the thing is, it seems like I've had a crush on you for forever. I know you almost as much as I know myself, know your quirks and whenever you're hiding your feelings deep inside. But the thing is, maybe knowing you too much was what put these feelings back in the trunk of 'oh my goodness, get those feelings out of here' feelings. Maybe realizing that we would never be a perfect match was what made my crush melt away.
Or maybe it was him.
Maybe it was when he suddenly appeared into my life, taking every feeling I've ever had and multiplying it by five. Maybe it was when he gave me hope, gave me a reason to wonder why, and ask 'what if'.
In all honesty, you, I really did love you.
I just loved someone else more.

Apparently a lot can happen when you are trying to avoid a writing a post.
writing about cheating was too hard. Apparently I am pretty grey about it. I thought that I had more… commitment to a side but I don't. I honestly don't know why I thought that. I am very rarely committed to one side. True Neutral? Close? There are somethings I do believe for sure with out changes – baseball is a great sport, Spock loved Kirk not Bones, peas aren't food.
Cheating though… who knows.
What has changed.
We live in Florida now. This place is a shit storm of strange- I was almost run over by cops during a high speed chase on the highway (I wasn't being chased), E passed an SUV on fire today – literally engulfed in flames. I think it's all so funny.
I have new ideas for this blog, number one being to write more often and to be more candid. I think it is in the day to day, the sitting together every moment, that truly makes our poly what it is and I think trying to do more… themed? posts wasn't working.
Forgive me for failing to write.
Also if you are interested-
I would like to display some photos or art on the blog banners – WITH CREDIT- so if you have something you want seen let me know. That being said – if you wouldn't send it to your edgy but old grandmother don't send it to me.
I have set up an email so follow the link.
I will accept topic ideas too.

The quality of meat, fish and – particularly - shellfish on offer in this part of Spain is superb but, in truth, the range of dishes in which this excellent primary produce is used is rather limited, especially in tapas bars. And – save for the ubiquitous (and Hispanisised and ginger-less!) Chinese restaurants – international cuisine is so rare as to be almost not worth the time trying to find it. But if you are only here for a week or two, this is not going to be a problem. So, throw yourself into the local cuisine with gusto and see, for example, how many different types of 'prawn' you can come across. Try the octopus and, if you are really adventurous (and rich), the percebes. For those with memories of a bucolic upbringing, there is even tripe (callos), meat and vegetable broth (caldo) and pigs' ears (orejas).
You may find vegetables in rather short supply, certainly compared with the volume of meat and potatoes you will be given. But salads are always available.
Tapas bars:- The old quarter is awash with these and the best thing to do is to wander around until one takes your fancy, for whatever reason. There is not much point spending valuable eating time comparing menus and prices since these are nearly always the same. Seafood dishes predominate, of course. Just a few citations:
1. Bocaito: Was - and may still be - the 'in' bar with the locals. Just by the Teatro Principal, in Dona Tereixa. Specialises in scrambled egg concoctions
2. Jaqueyvi: Offers excellent cured ham and cheeses. Like the Bocaito, more expensive than the run-of-the-mill bars. Opposite the Bocaito, in Dona Tereixa. There is a prize for the first person to figure out the origin of its name.
3. Eirado da Leña: This is in my favourite square, Praza da Leña. It is one of the few places in town to take the trouble to provide an English translation of its menu.
4. El Pitillo: Not so up-market but has fine food and the zamburiñas en ajillo are wonderful. Just down Rúa Alta from the lovely Praza de Santa Maria. Go to the tables upstairs if you don't like the TV in the corner. Of course, you still won't be able to hear yourself speak if there only as few as two Spanish diners there but it is a better ambience. Spanish diners converse by shouting at each other, usually simultaneously.
5. O Cortello:: With some reluctance, I am naming my favourite bar.
The menu is the normal limited one but the quality is excellent and there is a great ambience, presided over by the owner, Agostín. If you ask, he will give you an English version of his menu, provided by me. Bear in mind that Agostín often refers to me as Mr. Johnny. I really have no idea why. Agostín may also try out his list of English expressions, likewise provided by me. I have resisted the temptation to include some gratuitous insults for him to deliver in his well-intentioned ignorance. Don't mention Butlins; Agostín worked there 35 years ago and will bring out his photos at the slightest excuse. And then describe them in machine-gun Spanish, with an Andalucian accent. 'O Cortello' means 'pigsty', by the way. It can be found down the side of the church (Basílica) of Santa A Maíor, at the top of Isabella II. To whet your appetite, here is Agostín with a couple of the langostinos he puts in his superb salpicón de marisco, plus 3 octopuses.
Restaurants: At the top end of the market there are Casa Solla and Casa Ces, both in Poio on the Sanxenxo road (C550) not far out of Pontevedra after you have crossed the Barca bridge. Within Pontevedra, there is the Alameda (guess where) and Casa Román, in Garcia Sanchez, just off Praza Galicia.
Coming down from these culinary heights, there is a wide choice of cheaper places to eat in town, including several pizzerias, hamburger joints and take-away pizza parlours. One reasonably-priced restaurant I am happy to recommend from personal experience is O Alpendre dos Avós II, in Av. Xeneral Gutiérrez Mellado. For a tasty and tremendous value menú del dia - and excellent tapas in the summer - try Al Moro. This is on the edge of Praza Curros Enriquez in the old quarter, at the end of Fernandez Villaverde.
There was a vegetarian restaurant (Ambrosía) at the bottom of Praza Verdura. This is only fitting as this means 'Vegetable Square'. This first started to offer meat dishes and then converted itself into yet another tapas bar.
There was an Indian restaurant in and also a Korean restaurant but neither of these could drum up enough custom among the conservative Galicians and both, sadly, closed down.
There are several 'gastronomic' festivals in Galicia throughout the summer. Appendix 4 lists those which are within an hour's drive of Pontevedra. More or less.
A translation of menu items is given in Appendix 5. Many of these are local terms and will not appear in your Spanish dictionary.
If you are looking for a Churrasquería [or asador], here are a few suggestions:-
1. The San Blas Churrasquería. In San Blas, off the main road to Vigo, at
the big roundabout on the edge of town. Not easy to find so ask
around. Best to book - 986 84 64 19
2. The Porteliña Brazilian Churrasquería on Calle Porteliña, in Poio, across La Barca bridge. This is part of the road to Sanxenxo. On the right hand side not far after the roundabout with signs to the Venus 'motel'. Be careful as there is a more traditional Bodega Porteliña next door, though they are owned by the same people and I don't suppose they will mind where you end up. The Brazilian place does numerous rounds of meat for 17 or 18 euros. Be warned, you will feel stuffed by the end.
3. O Fonal: Just down from the Parador, towards the river
If you're travelling south from Santiago on the old road [N-550] towards Pontevedra and Vigo, you'll come to a village called Esclavitud. Or Slavery. Just before this [in Picaraña, I think], on the right hand side of the road, you'll find a restaurant called Reina Lupa. The sign outside says it has the best bacalau [cod], which might well be true. But its meats are certainly excellent, as is the Mencia wine from Quiroga. And the entire family speaks English, which is very rare in Galicia. Highly recommended.
As with the tapas bars, the drinking bars are just too numerous to list, especially in the old quarter. What you need to remember is that, though they may be open by early or mid evening, they don't start to buzz until midnight or even later. Many of them don't close until 8 in the morning, in summer at least. Note that the measures are at least 3 to 5 times larger than what you are given in the UK. And that the waiter/waitress may not stop pouring until you say so.
The other thing to bear in mind is that, if you are in an establishment which calls itself a 'Club' and which has lights and décor which are predominantly pink, you are in a brothel. If this hasn't dawned on you within the first five minutes of being there, this is definitely not the right place for you. One good external clue is to check whether the car park is surrounded by a fence whose purpose, one assumes, is to prevent passing spouses or journalists from identifying the cars. If you are actually looking for such an establishment, the stretch of the N550 between Pontevedra and Paredes (towards Vigo) would seem to be your best bet.
Many of the bars in the old quarter have a small dance area. As for real
discos, the scene is in flux, as the older city-centre establishments (Equus,
Shiva) sell out to the property developers and either disappear or re-emerge
on the outskirts of town. Those remaining can be crudely categorised as
follows. Lacking experience, I am indebted to my friends at the English
Speaking Society for this information.:-
Carabás: For the teenagers and posers. Near the top of Cobián Roffingnac
Morocco: For the 20 and 30 year olds. In Benito Corbal near the junction with Daniel de la Sota
Daniela: For those in their 30s and above. In Daniel de la Sota, near the junction with Benito Corbal
La Latína: For middle-aged married couples. In Av. de Vigo. No, I have no idea what this designation really means either. But it sounds safe. Perhaps you can hear yourselves talk there.
If it is just a coffee you are after, then again the choice is enormous. If you need to go to the post office [in c/ Oliva], then I recommend the Café del Gran Siglo, which is just across the road from it. This is a very comfortable place and one of the few which provides national as well as local newspapers.
The areas north of Pontevedra (Salnés) and south of Vigo/Bayona (Condado and O Rosal) are home to the albariño grape. This is used to produce the dry, white wine of the same name. This is of a high quality but volumes are relatively low so prices are high by Spanish standards. There is a leaflet (in Spanish) available from the Turismo which gives suggested routes through these wine zones, plus details of the various bodegas. You can probably find the wine from one of these (Martin Codax , a local co-operative) in the UK, if you want to try it before you come. Unsurprisingly, this leaflet is entitled 'Rías Baixas – Ruta del Vino de la D. O.' Throughout the hinterland of Pontevedra, you will see signs telling you that you are on a 'Ruta do Viño'. As far as I can tell, this is meaningless as I haven't found anywhere which isn't. There is an annual festival of albariño wine in Cambados, starting the first Sunday in August and lasting a week. Be warned that it is more than usually dangerous to drive on nearby roads during this period.
Near Cambados, in Barrantes, is a bodega owned and run by Ángela Martín and her English husband, Andrew McCarthy. This is the Bodegas Castro Martín, which specialises in albariño wines and a house aguardiente. Andrew is happy to show people around but needs a call first on either 986 710202 or 986 710606. Opening hours are 09.00 to 16.00, Monday to Friday. Please note that during the harvesting period in September it may be hard to accommodate you. Andrew believes he is the only Brit involved in the wine trade in Galicia and who can doubt him? You can learn about the bodega from their web site - www.bodegascastromartin.com
Stretching from the river Miño near Tui up to Ourense lie the vineyards and bodegas of a second local white wine, ribeiro. This is considerably cheaper than albariño but most of it is perfectly palatable and the higher priced bottles excellent. The centre of this wine-growing area is Ribadavia, which naturally has an annual wine festival. Plus a small but preserved Jewish quarter, last occupied by members of this faith in 1492 or thereabouts. Beware the charming old lady in the Jewish bakery; she is amongst the world's best salespersons. She may or may not be Jewish.
East of Ourense – in the magnificently scenic Ribera Sacra/Ribeira Sagrada – you will find the red amandi wine, said to have been produced first by the Romans, specially to drink with the lamprey from the river Sil. This is not as highly regarded as the reds of the Ribera del Douro and Rioja but is, nonetheless, a fine wine.
Occasionally, you will see signs for 'vinos del pais'/'viños do pais'. These can be black/purple/red or white but you are well advised to steer clear of them if you want to be able to taste anything else within the next 24 hours. Or live, even.
If you travel down into Portugal, you can enjoy both their albariño ('albarinho') wine and also the effervescent 'vinho verde' of Ponte de Lima, for example. This is a wonderful accompaniment to the river trout available in this very pretty little town.
There is a 'wine musuem' ('O Museo do Viño) close to Sanxenxo, on the old road to Vilalonga and O Grove. I mention it here, rather than in the Museum section, because it is, in truth, little more than a glorified shop and restaurant. Its aim is to make you feel good, enjoy yourself and part with a little of your money - all very worthy, if not noble, ends.
There is a vast range of mouth-stripping liqueurs, or aguardientes. For the local speciality of Queimada, the base liqueur is mixed with sugar, fruit and coffee grains and then set alight. Even if you can't get to drink this, you can buy (in various sizes) the earthenware bowl in which it is (reputedly) made and the cups from which one (reputedly) drinks it.
In Praza de Verdura there is a bar – the Os Maristas – which is said to retail a particularly powerful brew known as Tumba Dios ('God falls down'). I think may have drunk it but can't now recall anything of the experience.

We spoke briefly as I didn't want to take up a lot of his time (and wanted to let him eat!). I mentioned that I had just recently seen "The Sweet Smell of Success" and thought he was brilliant. He said, "You know, I watch some of these old movies and I'm still amazed to see that I was in them." In other words, he led a charmed life and he knew it.
A fuzzy, cell-phone picture is my little keepsake of our brief meeting, one moment I won't soon forget.
So long.

Electric power substation automation is a revolution for the management of networks. Substation is a base for some of the most important functions of the utility and is a part of electrical generation, transmission, and distribution system. Electric power substation automation is a combination of numerous control and data acquisition functions on an automated platform with a minimum number of units to augment the reliability and thereby reducing the cost of operation of the substation automation system.
Electric power substation automation is one of the major developments in a substation technology and also a leading aspect of the smart grid revolution. Electric power substation deals with the generation, transmission and distribution of electricity. Substation automation increases the level of convenience of operations, as it enables an electric utility to remotely monitor, control and coordinate the distribution component installed in the substation.

The Lightning Network May Save Bitcoin
Bitcoin rose to fame as the first of its kind, the pioneering cryptocurrency that paved the way for others to come. Since then, however, the rest have more than caught up. There are currently several cryptocurrencies that are faster, cheaper and more private, and the world is responding by moving their money to these more efficient networks.
The Trouble with Bitcoin
Earlier in 2017, SatoshiPay announced that it would no longer be using the Bitcoin blockchain for payment processing, and would be adopting Stellar as its replacement partner. Quicker payments and lower transaction fees, as well as a "mature" and "stable" software ecosystem, were stated as reasons.
A few months down the line, in December 2017, the popular gaming store, Steam, announced that it would also be stepping away from Bitcoin as an accepted payment method. Once again, the gaming platform complained of "high fees and volatility in the value of Bitcoin."
This move was closely followed by the co-founder of none other than Bitcoin.com, Emil Oldenburg, publicly urging investors to sell their Bitcoin for Bitcoin cash. His reason? Bitcoin's slow transaction speeds coupled with its ever-increasing transaction fees.
In addition, Bitcoin has not had a good last few weeks, losing more than 20 percent of its value on Christmas Eve and struggling to stay above $14,000. The price of Bitcoin at the time of writing has dropped as low as $13,000. At this stage, it does not appear to be returning to that record $20,000 mark anytime soon. But there seems to be an all-encompassing solution on the horizon.
What is the Lightning Network?
The lightning network is not a new cryptocurrency or a new blockchain. It is merely a method through which Bitcoin transaction speeds can be dramatically increased, while simultaneously reducing processing fees and increasing the amount of privacy in each transaction.
At this point, Bitcoin has one of the slowest processing speeds amongst all forms of online payment methods currently available. While Visa can scale up to 65,000 transactions per second, Bitcoin is capable of a mere seven.
As an illustration of this problem, Amazon is recorded to have hit up to 600 transactions per second during its peak times, making Bitcoin a poor payment partner for the e-commerce giant.
The lightning network changes all of this, giving Bitcoin the ability to scale up to billions of transactions per day, and once again making its service offering competitive amongst its peers.
How does the Lightning Network Work?
The lightning network uses off-chain technology, which, simply put, means that not every transaction is recorded on the blockchain. This process cuts out the processing times as well as the fees paid to the Bitcoin miners who validate the transaction.
Instead of the blockchain, the system comprises of a parallel-running platform which is opened between two parties who engage in frequent Bitcoin transactions. In a similar method to escrow, the buyer deposits an amount in the "holding account," and then releases a portion of it to the seller at each point of purchase.
For example, if Steven buys a bagel from the corner café several times a month during his lunch break, he and the merchant can open a secure and individual Bitcoin payment channel through the lightning network.
Should the verbal agreement between the two parties come to an end, either party can terminate the payment channel at any time, at which point, any remaining funds held in the channel are returned to the respective owners.
A separate balance sheet records the transactions in the lightning network which then gets stored within the individual payment channel. These translations are only recorded on the blockchain on two occasions – when the payment terminal is opened, and when it is closed.
At the time of termination, the latest form of the balance sheet is sent to the blockchain and its authenticity validated by miners. As the entire process is automated, there can be no theft of funds or hidden transactions.
Additionally, all transactions made within the private payment channel are not publicly broadcasted on the blockchain, which allows for private transacting.
When will the Lightning Network be Implemented?
Though the lightning network is not live outright, it is currently undergoing testing on the Bitcoin testnet, and is estimated to be formally introduced in early 2018.
Not only will it solve the problems that Bitcoin has been facing, but it will once again revolutionize the execution of cryptocurrency transactions.

C. S. Lewis really gives all that he is capable of in this last book of Narnia. The tension escalates throughout the book. The pace quickens continuously. The reader gets completely absorbed into the story. The fight scenes are comparable to the best epic tales like Lord of the Rings, and I really look forward to seeing The Last Battle made into a movie!
Then the plot turns unexpectedly at the last quarter of the book. Here I would've downgraded my rating, had I not remembered that Lewis meant to draw a parallel with the Bible. The turning of the plot does make sense when you consider the message of the entire story - even if you're not really satisfied at the outcome of the battle....Continua

Did you not love UP? A story that ultimately was about a perfect love that was had, passed, but then one half was encouraged to continue living life, because you can't possibly only love one person or thing in your life? Because life is full of adventures, and you're allowed to have more than one, and someone who really, truly, purely loves you will want that for you. Sorry that's not romantic enough?
This show is certainly hopelessly romantic, yet so grounded in reality.
What kind of expectations did you have of the finale? We had already met the mother. We already knew they'd be perfect together. For example, I knew, from the moment I started watching Breaking Bad, that Walter White had to die. I didn't care or know how, but I knew he had to die. That was the only expectation I had of the series finale.
HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER has been less predictable than that (not that I didn't enjoy Breaking Bad, or wasn't surprised by numerous events).
The show has always been about Robyn. Everyone may've realized it at different times. I knew it was about Robyn at the end of the eighth season. I knew that the story of how Ted met the mother was completely based on his relationship with Robyn. As annoying as the ups and downs had been, his absolute lowest of aloneness and despair was Robyn's wedding – where he meets the mother of his children.
People leave us when we're not finished loving them. It's just a fact. It's not one we usually talk about or see in such a light-hearted sitcom (though they beautifully and perfectly touched on it with Marshall's dad). Yes, we'd all like to think that life can't or doesn't continue after our soulmate passes on. Titanic happened to be on AMC a couple hours before the HIMYM finale. Wasn't it bittersweet that she lived her life to the fullest?
Yes, it burns to think that Ted had always been in love with Robyn, even when he was with the mother. First, this show has never been about being perfect. It's been a constant struggle to find perfection, but realizing that your idea of perfection will always be unattainable. Life gets in the way, and you better fucking enjoy it. Second, you have to keep in mind that a) 6 years have passed since the mother died; and b) Ted has happily lived his life outside of the story we've been told. As his kids, so to speak, we know everything that happened after Ted met the mother, and I for one like to think it was everything Ted imagined his life with his future wife would be.
As it was pointed out by the mother, Ted has been living in his stories. This show cannot be so simplified to how he met the mother. This show has been about his transformation to becoming the man who met the mother. It's about ALL of the people he's loved.
Don't you think he was happy with Tracy while they were married? He may have pined for Robyn every now and then, but can you blame him after everything we know about their relationship?
The scene with the yellow umbrella was all I could've expected and wished of the series finale. I didn't know it, but it's exactly how I expected and wanted Ted to meet Tracy. That's really all I could've asked for I guess.
All in all, an emotional roller coaster. One that I will probably ride over and over, and come to different conclusions every time.
AND ANOTHER THING: love is all we have, right? It doesn't have to make sense, right? And didn't the mother have to move on from the love of her life before meeting Ted?
I think a lot of people expected a marvelous, explosively romantic ending to the show, when in fact we had already MET the mother at the end of season 8 and throughout season 9. I'm not sure what people expected from the series finale in that sense, though I haven't yet taken the time or built the emotional reserve to read other analyses and blogs.
AND YET ANOTHER THING: This article by Megan Garber starts to articulate how I feel about the series finale. As everyone continues to point out, YES, THE SHOW IS CALLED HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER. And you know what? We met her. What more do you want? What more did you expect?

Hello! We are Adele Lippiatt and Emma Lunt. We are both qualified primary school teachers, each with over 20 years of experience teaching in a wide variety of settings. We are also both mums, so understand the challenges of family life. Both as parents and teachers, we have experienced the positive difference that learning through fun can make.
We founded Launchpad in 2012 starting with just one small pre-school class in Southville, Bristol. Launchpad has grown each year. We now deliver pre-school classes and art clubs in Bristol. We also provide community projects and frequently work with local schools and groups providing a range of activities. In addition to these, Launchpad provide PPA cover and enrichment sessions with a specialism in art. We offer a tailor-made package for schools that links directly to the National Curriculum.
Over the last few years we have been lucky enough to get to know so many great families. We have had a huge amount of positive feedback and we love watching the confidence and skills of our Launchpadders grow.
My name is Emma Lunt. I qualified as a primary school teacher gaining a BA Hons with QTS (Qualified Teacher Status) in art and drama from Warwick University in 1999. Since then I have taught in a wide variety of settings including primary schools and nurseries in Birmingham, Bristol and at the British School of Paris. I have taught across the key stages and early years from ages 1-11, including lead teacher at the Southville Centre's term-time pre-school, literacy subject leader at Backwell Junior School and class teacher at Southville Primary. I feel hugely passionate about the quality delivery of art in education. I also believe that every child deserves the opportunity to develop high self-esteem, become a great communicator, be given the grounding to explore the world positively and demonstrate a caring and empathetic attitude for those around them. I love being a part of Launchpad and all the opportunities it continues to offer.
My name is Adele Lippiatt. I was born in Wales but now live in Southville, Bristol with my husband and three children. I trained as a primary school teacher in Cardiff and graduated with a BA honours in Education, specialising in art. I have over twenty years of teaching experience. I have worked across the key stages in many different settings as a full time classroom teacher, supply teacher and more recently as a PPA teacher teaching art at Southville Primary School.
When I'm not teaching Launchpad you'll find me samba drumming, dancing or making artisan cheese! I feel that variety is the spice of life!
I'm really passionate about working with children and families and love being creative; so setting up Launchpad classes with my good friend Emma was like a dream come true. We have built up the business over the years and have had some great fun along the way. May it continue as we spread the Launchpad love!

Everyone loves a good party. Especially for people who work in an office, it's a great time to mingle with your co-workers outside the office environment, away from the pressure of deadlines and quota. But if not planned right, it can also be a failure. If you're being tagged as the planner for your company's next party, be sure to follow these tips to make a memorable event for your superiors and co-workers.
1. Don't do it alone – this is a very important thing to remember. You don't have to shoulder all the responsibility. If you come from a big company, why not ask for a representative from every department to help you? This way you can get a lot of ideas that would make everyone in the company happy. Now, if you're being asked to plan a party during a time when there are too many deadlines and you know that your co-workers are too busy, you can consider hiring an event planner to help you, provided that you have enough in your budget.
2. Budget. Set a budget for your event. This will help you allocate money for specific items for the party such as food, decorations, and entertainment.
3. Decide on a theme – once you have your team and your budget set, you can now choose a theme. Why choose? It will make the overall planning easier. When there is a set theme, it will be quicker to decide on the decorations and even the food that will be served at your party. You can even ask people to come in costume. Just make sure that you choose a theme that everyone will get to enjoy.
4. Choose a good venue/serve good food – It would be great if you can have the party outside of your office location. This way, the employees will really feel that it would be a special event. To make it more cost-effective, you may opt to have the party at a restaurant or even hotel. What's great about this place is that they usually come with decorating and catering services. Some even have an event planner to help you with the logistics of your event. If you're going for a unique venue, you can try museums or art galleries. Just make sure to book the venue in advance so that you have plenty of time to prepare for it.
5. Live entertainment – never skip of the entertainment. Otherwise, it would just be a fancy dinner with your co-workers. Whatever type of party you are planning, it's always better to have live music, whether it's a DJ or live band. If you're planning a more intimate cocktail party, then consider getting a violinist may be the perfect choice for you. Even better is someone who has adapted to the new music nowadays. Asher Laub has been trained classically since he was 2 years old. He has performed for major events organized by Google, National Geographic and more. For corporate entertainment with a touch of class, he would be a perfect choice.

In the industry of banking—I know I know.. we talk a lot about banking–…. Anyways… In the industry of banking, they as we know have been a bit behind the times when it comes to being social. Do not get me wrong they are a bit behind the times in other things.. but we are here to talk social media.
Banks and credit unions were behind on joining the social media world because it is scary and at first (and even now) it is an unknown world. With every item and word that is published by a bank in ads or press releases being checking and re-checked by compliance the idea of posting daily to blogs, twitter, and Facebook was not something people were going to get excited about- so they didn't go social. The problem was that their customer, vendors, and neighbors were all going social without them. So if nothing else get onto facebook to see what others are saying! because you cannot control what you do not know.
Every good Bank of America Facebook?
Weird huh?!
You can also find countless blogs and posts about their twitter accounts, and how they are handling their brand.
When it comes to banks, and credit unions.. not all social media sites are going to really work out the way that they do for say.. a restaurant or pub…
Facebook- Works great! Banks are able to post things going on in their local community, show limited ads (compliance), promote a new service (Mobile Banking), and host contests that people can vote or share.
This is when Citizens Bank joined Facebook
This is when TD Bank joined Facebook..
Yes Facebook Launched in 2004
Twitter- Ok but not as good as Facebook! Twitter is hard because banks really don't have that much going on every day, so they cannot use twitter the way it was intended.. they can post maybe 3-5 times a week… but let's be real, how quickly would that get lost on your twitter feed?
Pinterest- umm NO… Pinterest was made for people to be creative, and dream about things they do not have, and may never be able to afford… Banks have no place telling me how to save while I am pinning photos of my dream home, on an island, in Fiji ((PERSONAL THOUGHT))… but when you search Pinterest for banks… good luck finding more than a handful of active accounts
Intagram- I won't even comment on this- what are they going to post? They aren't getting the likes or comments on Facebook, why would Instagram be any different? Really. – the only 'banks on Instagram is Tyra!
Four square- Do you want everyone to know when you want to the bank. Are you really willing to admit you are the mayor of a bank?! When was the last time you really walked into a bank?! Really?!

The pastel of the woman was also $10. I did not need it...but the colors are beautiful and we had sold a lot at our own garage sale that week-end...so I had some cash in my pocket. The Italian tray $1. The Native Couple $2.
I've been using my phone for photos cuz the boys have had our camera kit all tied up with music video shoots. Sorry about the quality of the images.
