"A leader we can believe in."
[A silly anecdote: I actually brought his book, The Audacity of Hope, to have him sign if I "could get close enough." I had a permanent marker too. Oh well.]
Barack Obama spoke to about 18,000 people @ Kohl Center, Madison, Wisconsin. The students were reminded that if they are a student in Wisconsin they can vote. It was a great event. Late, for my little ten year old. But I think she will remember this night for a long time. I asked her what her strongest impression was from the night and she said "He's going to end the war." "You really believe he will do it don't you?" "Yes, she said, of course." I hope so. I believe he will.
The things that were important to this crowd seemed to be: the war, student credits to go to school. When he said they would have to work for it by volunteering the crowd went absolutely WILD! Imagine that. Cheering because he wants them to do something for others. They also went wild went he mentioned that George Dubya would NOT BE IN THE WHITE HOUSE. I think even Obama was taken aback by the cheering over that comment.

In memoriam: Kareltje 2010-2022 (English)
The Karl is no more. Kareltje, Karel de Grote, Carolus Magnificus, or for real intimi, Pensje, used up his ninth life on Monday Morning at 3:15 AM. He died of a heart attack and he did not suffer.
People would often tell us Karel was the most characteristic cat they’d ever met. And boy did he have character.
Pushing his paw out of the mailbox in the front door when the mailmen had the audacity to shove envelopes into the territory.
When we would stand with his back to him, cooking or brushing our teeth, he would appreciate that with nails in our ankles.
He knew we’d let him onto the roof terrace immediately when he hung in the curtains covering the door. The curtains in the bedroom are incapable of catching 7,5 kilogrammes of cat failing to make a U-turn manoueuvre in a very small window sill, we also learnt that.
Keyboards? Book reports? Notebooks? The Karl would stretch and lay down on all of them at once if necessary. He measured 76 centimeters from his little nose till the tip of his tail (I measured it with my iPhone).
Karel always wanted your undivided attention. And he got it. Definitely the past four years with me recovering from a car accident, a pandemic, lockdowns and working from home, there was always a lap to chill on. He enjoyed that so very much. He became sweeter, more and more affectionate and his purr got louder and louder. He was living the dream, really. Every night he’d sleep
With his head on our ankles. In the morning he’s walk to the head board, make rounds under the duvet and come out again to curl up on his blanket beside my pillow. He’d curl up in my elbow there, paws on my arm and his nose warming up in my hand.
The jump from the bed to the chest of drawers under the open window was perfectioned during the years. Every morning he’d sit there drooling over the blackbirds singing their songs, or the pigeons landing on the roof.
During the day there were cyclical patrols around the house: roof terrace, balcony on the front side, balcony on the back side (repeat as seen fit); naps in several cardboard boxes, the newspaper basket and of course in bed with his head on my husband’s pillow.
He watched hubby’s accomplishments in World of Tanks with great interest. They are Serrano ham and crackers together, but The Karl had no objection to finishing off our house plants either. His favorite human food was white asparagus. He’d sit on the floor next to the dining room table and looked at me until he’d get hand fed little pieces. With white asparagus on hand, he’d ignore the trout that was also in our salad.
And then there were his holidays, with his regular cat sitter, in her garden. He had several girlfriend cats that he’d give nose kisses and he spent most of the day enjoying the safe outdoors.
Kareltje left a great impression on us (and our furniture). We are heartbroken he is no longer with us. We would have loved to enjoy life with him for another five years or more. We are grateful he did not suffer or had a decline with lots of vet visits - he was so scared of the vet and hated going into his carrier.
But the silence in our house hurts, without our fur baby who was always with us everywhere we went. All doors are still left slightly ajar, but it’s not necessary anymore. It’s nice to have clean floors without kitty litter scattered everywhere but we’d give the world to go back to vacuuming several times a day.
We did our best to take care of him the best we could within our possibilities. The love and care we had for him - we had tons left of that. But as suddenly as he entered our one life, so suddenly his ninth ended.

Marsyas
Marble
Balthasar Permoser (1651-1732)
Bavarian-born sculptor active in Austria, Italy, and Germany; this work probably carved in Rome, ca.1680
Marsyas had the audacity (audacity I tell you) to challenge Apollo to a musical duel, Marsyas playing his pipes, Apollo his viol. After Marsyas lost, Apollo flayed him alive. The bust was meant to be seen in a niche, probably outdoors and perhaps with an Apollo as a pendant.

A young, ambitious immigrant from Guatemala who dreamed of becoming an architect. A Nigerian medic. A soldier from China who boasted he would one day become an American general. An Indian native whose headstone displays the first Khanda, emblem of the Sikh faith, to appear in Arlington National Cemetery.
These were among more than 100 foreign-born members of the U.S. military who earned American citizenship by dying in Iraq.
Is it really worth?
Refuge in audacity perhaps, betting that nobody will find it easy to tow such a big truck?
Happy Friday, everyone :)

Bein' a bad boy ain't that bad
I had me more dirty women than most men ever had
All you women come along with me
And I'll show you how good a bad boy can be
"Bad Boy Boogie"~AC/DC
I'm traveling down the road and I'm flirting with disaster
I got the pedal to floor, my life is running faster
I'm out of money, out of hope, it looks like self destruction
Well, how much more can't you take with all this corruption?
We're flirtin' with disaster, ya'll know what I mean
"Flirtin' With Disaster"~Molly Hatchet
This lightbulb glowing amid a ramshackle carcass of a wrecked greenhouse came across as the perfect symbol for this moment in history. The new President will have his work cut out for him , getting things to grow.But the light still shines in the dysfunctional rubble.
Red poppies
Of all the wildflowers I love the red poppy more, do you know why?Because she always stands there in her red dress and reminds me of those who have been wrongly lost for an idea, for a love, for a homeland, for a dream. Still humble with the audacity of her color to declare that the unfairness in this world will never end.

Welcome!!!
Come closer, give the hands of the Heart 💖and finally make really Peace!!!

Rote Mohnblumen
Von allen Wildblumen liebe ich die rote Mohnblume mehr, weißt du warum?
Weil sie steht immer mit ihrem roten Kleid da und erinnert mich an jene, die fälschlicherweise für eine Idee, für eine Liebe, für eine Heimat, für einen Traum verloren sind. Immer noch demütig, mit der Kühnheit ihrer Farbe, zu sagen, daß die Ungerechtigkeit in dieser Welt niemals enden wird.
Willkommen!!!
Kommt näher, gib die Hände des Herzens 💖und macht endlich wirklich Frieden!!!

Κοκκινες παπαρουνες
Απ oλα τα αγριολουλουδα πιο πολυ αγαπω την κοκκινη παπαρουνα, ξερεις γιατι;
Γιατι στεκεται παντα εκει κατακοκκινη και μου θυμιζει εκεινους που χαθηκαν αδικα για μια ιδεα, για μια αγαπη, για μια πατριδα, για ενα ονειρο. Ταπεινη μα παντα με το θρασος του χρωματος της να δηλωνει πως το αδικο σε τουτο το κοσμο δεν θα τελειωσει ποτε.

Καλως ορισες!!!
ελατε πιο κοντα,δωστε τα χερια της Καρδιας 💖και καντε επιτελους πραγματικα Ειρηνη!!!

Kırmızı haşhaş
Bütün kır çiçeklerinden daha çok kırmızı haşhaş seviyorum, nedenini biliyor musun? Çünkü her zaman kırmızı kıyafetinde orada duruyor ve bana bir fikir, bir aşk, bir vatan için, bir rüya için yanlışlıkla kaybolanları hatırlatıyor . Bu dünyadaki haksızlığın hiçbir zaman sona ereceğini beyan etmek için renginin cüretiyle hâlâ mütevazı.
.
Hoşgeldiniz!!!
gel daha yakından...
Kalbin elini ver....💖
ve nihayet Barış yap!!!
Sonsuza Dek Barış!!!

Imagine having the audacity to get mad at people copying you, when you're doing the exact same thing to the black women on SL you are trying to clone.
That's not shade. That's the full tea.
Don't ask me what blackfishing is or play dumb. Google is fucking free for fucks sake. LOOK IT UP. Reeeach out and touch a keyboard and a browser.
If you want a lesson, you will have to pay for one. Free Femdom is unavailable.
Maysville, Kentucky
The men who built the Cox Building, William H. and George L. Cox, also underwrote the construction of a string of seven contiguous brick dwellings built simultaneously with the construction of the Cox Building, and extending south along the east side of Market Street from the Cox Building to Fourth Street.
The scale and audacity of this private undertaking must have been breathtaking to the Maysville residence of the 1800s. Located only three city blocks from the Ohio River, the Cox Building commands some of the highest ground in the business district, from which point its tower rises to share the skyline with the spires of various nearby churches and County Courthouse.
Maysville residents had good reason to be relieved when the Cox family built their new development on Lot 104, between Third Street and Fourth Street. Since at least 1815 this lot across the street from, overlooking, upstream from and upwind from the town market had been used as a tanyard.
Based on the wording of property transfers of 1870 and 1879, it appears that the tanyard closed at some time between those two dates. One of the many newspaper accounts of the dedication of the Cox Building noted,
“In gazing at the handsome 4-story structure at the southeast corner of Third and Market, one can hardly realize that only a year or so ago an old dingy-looking, dilapidated two-story brick occupied the ground. And in passing up Market to Fourth, a stranger would hardly imagine that the space now ornamented by the seven fine brick dwellings was a vacant lot twelve months ago, an “eye-sore” to that part of the city” (Daily Evening Bulletin, February 18, 1887).
The Cox Building was designed by W.R. Brown, a partner in the Cincinnati architectural firm of Crapsey & Brown. The firm headed by Charles Crapsey & William R. Brown was prolific in the 1880s and 1890s and executing commissions throughout the Midwest in the Romanesque and Gothic Revival idioms. The firm was experienced in complex large-scale structures such as churches, fraternal halls, college buildings and city halls.
Posterity is fortunate to have a surviving copy of an 1887 newspaper article that lists all of the contractors and suppliers who worked on the Cox Building (Daily Evening Bulletin, February 18, 1887).
The contractors “broke ground” for these buildings March 1, 1886. Amount of rock in foundation 1350 perch; contractors for same, N.B. Smith & Son and Jno. Powers, of this city. Amount of brick used, 1,400,000, furnished and laid by J.M. Blair & sons, of Cincinnati. Amount of plastering, 24,000 yards; contractor, L.B. Hancock, of Cincinnati. There were 50,000 bushels of sand used in laying the foundations, brick and plastering, all of which was furnished by the Gable brothers of this city. The lime used amounted to 1200 barrels. The framing timbers were furnished by W.B. Mathews & Co., and Collins, Rudy & Co., and the inside finishing by the Maysville Manufacturing Company, of this city. The plumbing, gas, and steam fitting was done by T.J. Curley, and the painting and glazing by Frank Hauck and John Carnahan. The slate roofing – about 200 squares – was put on by James Hunter, of Cincinnati. The gas fixtures throughout all the buildings were furnished by T.J. Curley.
The red stone work was done by David Hummel, of Cincinnati, the stone being brought from Mansfield, Ohio. The stone flagging for the pavements was furnished by Reitz & Co., of Portsmouth, Ohio. The tin was done by Allen, Hall & Co., and Bierbower & Co., and the galvanized iron work by McClanahan & Shea, Lane & Worrick, S.B. Chunn and Wormald & Willett did the carpenter work. J.P. Walton, of Cincinnati, did the iron work and furnished the material for same. Electric call-bells were put in by C.E. jones & Co., of Cincinnati (Daily Evening Bulletin, February 18, 1887)
In a second newspaper article appearing eight days later, under a column entitled, “Masonic Notes,” the craftsmen responsible for the stained glass window appearing in the third floor Third Street Façade are mentioned:
“The memorial window, presented by Mrs. Emily Gray, contains about seven hundred pieces of glass of almost every imaginable color and size and design. It was furnished at the cost of seven hundred dollars through Andrews & co., of Chicago” (Daily Evening Bulletin, February 25, 1887).
The construction was completed in a single year. On Wednesday, February 23, 1887 The Daily Evening Bulletin transcribes an account written at the time the Masonic Temple was dedicated:
A representative of the Bulletin was shown through the Temple Last Saturday afternoon by, Colonel Owens and Judge Coons, two of the most prominent and active Sir Knights of Maysville Commandery. On entering the Temple one is ushered into the reception room immediately at the right on reaching the third floor. It faces Market Street, and is 18 by 15 feet in size.
Adjoining this on the north is the Tyler’s Room, 18 by 20 feet in size. Passing through this, one enters the Asylum. This is the largest room in the Temple. It runs the full length of the building on Third street 73 feet and is 40 feet in width. It is the home of the Commandery. Here the secret conclaves of the Sir Knights are held. At the east end of the room is a platform raised a few feet above the floor. From this stage the Eminent Commander presides over the meetings. On either side are two seats for the Senior and Junior Warden and for distinguished guests. Over the E.C. chair is the inscription, “INRI,” in large jeweled letters. In the center of the Asylum is what is known as the Delta, a table patterned after the Greek letter of that name. It is covered with heavy white fringed black velvet and on it are arranged twelve golden candlesticks. The Delta is used in the secret work of the Order. In the north-east and south-east corners of the Asylum are desks, one for the Recorder and the other for the Treasurer.
The Reception Room, Tyler’s Room, and Asylum are all finely furnished in cherry, with rich velvet-cushioned furniture to correspond, and the floors are all covered with handsome Brussels carpet. The Asylum is lighted by eighty-three gas jets, most of them from a large chandelier suspended from the center of the ceiling. The Scene Room is south of the Asylum and occupies a somewhat central part of the floor. It is surrounded by a seven- foot hallway. Its dimensions are 21×13 feet. In it are kept the paraphernalia used in the secret work of the order. The Blue Lodge Room is found in the south-east corner of the third floor, and is 48×30 feet in size. The Worshipful Master’s chair is on an elevation at the east end, the senior Warden’s at the west end and the Junior Warden’s at the south side, midway. An alter occupies the middle of the room. It is heavily cushioned with deep blue velvet and is surrounded by a rest, likewise cushioned, for persons in kneeling posture. This room is finished in ancient oak. The furniture corresponds and is cushioned in deep blue velvet. The Asylum and Blue Lodge Room are connected by folding doors with the hallway that surrounds the Scene Room, and also with the main hallway.”
On the fourth floor is the banquet room, dimensions 100×23 feet, arranged to accommodate about 300 people at one time, the kitchen, pantry and china closet. In the foregoing an accurate description has not been attempted. It is merely an outline. There are a number of hallways, anti-rooms, vaults etc, that have not been mentioned, and which are difficult to describe. No expense was spared in making the Temple one of the handsomest in its finish and the most complete in its every arrangement in the state.
The city of Maysville purchased the building in 2006 for $200,000 and has since been working diligently in bringing the building back to its original grandeur. All in which came to a crashing halt on November 9th 2010 when a fire almost destroyed the building.
The roof, 4th and 5th floors were totally destroyed by fire. Since that time, the city has worked diligently in bringing this building back to life.
