thank you for all your kind comments - I'm five years on flickr now ... - and one year blogging at flickrcomments.wordpress.com - photo was taken (late in the evening, bad light) by a friend with his new www.flickr.com/cameras/sony/nex-5/
I was talking to Jersey Shore Fightin’ Texas Aggie Ring earlier today. I told him, “Gee, it’d be great to have something to eat with all of this delicious Shiner Bock besides kolaches.” Aggie Ring thought about my comment for a moment or so and replied, “You’re in luck. You asked the question to the right Aggie Ring. I know exactly what we need to eat with all of that delicious Shiner Bock.”
Jersey Shore Fightin’ Texas Aggie Ring then had me drive him up to the Mexican grocery store in the River City of Red Bank and select a little over 6 pounds of lean Bistec de Cañada that had just been freshly sliced. It reminded me of fajita meat, but it is actually a thinly cut top round. I took it to the checkout counter and Aggie Ring made me pay for it. I’ve tried to get Aggie Ring to pay for some things in the past but he gets irritated at me and says, “You want me to pay? Do you think I’m made of gold or something?”
Once Aggie Ring and I got home, we cut the fresh beef (which has a totally different smell than beef that’s been in the cold case for a couple of days) into sensible 2” by 3” pieces. While I was cutting up the beef, Aggie Ring was at the stove making his special “Fightin’ Texas Aggie Ring Marinade.” While Aggie Ring has several varieties of marinade he likes, he decided to go with something traditional this time because Jersey Shore Fightin’ Texas Aggie Ring is all about tradition. Aggie Ring said, “Perhaps next time we might make the “Angry Waggie” cayenne pepper based marinade.”
After bringing the marinade to a boil to dissolve the brown sugar, honey, etc. Aggie Ring added lots of garlic sauce, Worcestershire sauce, all kinds of dried peppers and a little bit of Aggie Ring “this and that.” Aggie Ring used a “secret” ingredient as one of the liquids in this batch. Aggie Ring says, “If someone can’t figure out what it was from these photos, then they’re a dumbass.” One of the things that Aggie Ring has learned about making jerky over the last couple of decades is that if the marinade doesn’t taste good when you sample it with a spoon, then the jerky (whether it’s beef, pork, chicken, or salmon) won’t taste all that great. Aggie Ring tested his marinade several times as he was adding various things to it until it had the “Aggie Ring Seal of Approval.”
After the marinade had cooled, Aggie Ring put the sliced and cut Bistec de Cañada into a two gallon ziplock bag and poured the marinade into the bag with the beef. Aggie Ring had me put it into the bottom of the refrigerator and reminded me to massage and flip the bag around from time to time so all of the meat makes contact with the marinade. “Not a problem.” I told Aggie Ring, “I can just do that each time I go downstairs for another delicious Shiner Bock.”
“Well,” said Aggie Ring. “I guess this Fightin’ Texas Aggie Ring has saved the day yet again. This Aggie Ring truly is “King of Rings.””
Note: I did the math. The six pounds of beef cost $35.00. There was no fat to cut off— so after jerking, I should have slightly less than three pounds of jerky. We probably used about $5.00 of supplies for the marinade. The last time Aggie Ring looked at the prices of jerky at the store (not that we’d ever eat any store-bough jerky), it was anywhere from between $8 to $12 dollars for a few ounces of the high-end jerky.

Details and History
The Wikimedia Commons website offers a multitude of historical images with no restrictions on use. This circa 1860 Langenheim, Loyd & Co. image shows docks and ships at the Philidelphia Navy Yard one year before the onset of the Civil War. This appears to show a steam sloop in the foreground and a sail-less steamship behind. Though this ship is unidentified, it seems to have similarities to the larger USS Roanoke before conversion to an ironclad. Contemporary hybrid sail/steam ships for which images have been found include the steam sloop USS Pawnee, the screw steamship USS Mohawk (steamship Caledonia), and the screw gunboat USS Wyandotte.
In the US, brothers William and Frederick Langenheim introduced Steriopticon ("Magic Lantern") technology in 1850. The brothers, early pioneers in photographic processes, were also the first to produce stereo views domestically.

Obituary:
MRS J. K. ARCHER
Many friends throughout New Zealand. particularly those of the older generation, will learn with regret of the death yesterday of Mrs Phoebe Elizabeth Archer, widow of the Rev. John Kendrick Archer, formerly Mayor of Christchurch.
Mrs Archer, who was 87 years old, was born at Wisbech, Cambridgeshire, England, and her marriage to Mr Archer, a minister of the Baptist Church, was celebrated in Peterborough. In 1908. Mr and Mrs Archer came to New Zealand, where the first pulpit Mr Archer occupied was that of the Baptist Church in Napier. He served in Invercargill and Wellington before coming to Christchurch. Mr Archer entered local body politics in 1921 when he was elected to the Christchurch City Council and he continued to hold office until 1925, when he was elected Mayor. During his term as Mayor the Duke of York (later King George VI) visited Christchurch. Mr Archer was Mayor until 1931, when he re-entered the City Council, and in 1937 he became a member of the Legislative Council, resigning his seat a month before his death in July 1949. During all his long public service, Mr Archer received the greatest support from his wife, whose opinion he greatly valued and who, as Mayoress and wife of a city councillor, carried out meticulously her manifold duties.
A woman of good education and wise judgment, Mrs Archer was quiet and gentle in manner and never herself took any public office. She was a skilled artist and was interested in music and always took her full share of work for the Baptist Church, especially for the missionary society and for the Women’s Christian Temperance Union, of which she was a devoted member. She retained her interest in these works up till her death.
In 1944, Mr and Mrs Archer celebrated their golden wedding. Mrs Archer is survived by two sons. Judge Archer and Mr T. Archer, senior school inspector in Hamilton. The funeral will take place on Monday and will be preceded by a service in the Baptist Church, Colombo street south. [1]

FURTHER READING:
Talking on the occasion of his 50th wedding anniversary Rev. ARCHER stated:
“his only regret throughout his 50 years of married life was that, instead of marrying at the age of 28 years, he had not married five or six years earlier. Acknowledging the great assistance afforded to him by his wife in his public career. Mr Archer said he had never known her to act from any motive divorced from unselfishness. He had been in New Zealand 36 years; and he had always been known as a man of very definite opinions. In the course of a long life he had found that people did not resent differences of opinion frankly expressed, so long as they believed that the person expressing them was honest in his beliefs. Personally, his feelings were of deep gratitude to the people of Christchurch for the wonderful consideration extended to him by those in all walks of life. The life of himself and his wife had indeed been a happy one.[10]
Biography – Rev. John Kendrick ARCHER
John Kendrick Archer was born on 3 March 1865 at Thornton, Leicestershire, England, the son of Mary Kendrick and her husband, Thomas Archer, a master butcher. Thomas was a keen Methodist and Mary a devout Baptist. John was raised as a Methodist and educated at Market Bosworth Grammar School, Leicestershire, and University College, Nottingham. From 1888 to 1891 he attended Midland Baptist College, Nottingham. On 10 July 1894 he married Phoebe Elizabeth Gee at the Baptist chapel, Peterborough, Northamptonshire. Initially a Methodist lay preacher, John Archer subsequently became a Baptist minister. After his ordination in 1891 he served in the north of England as pastor at Peterborough (1891–95), Heptonstall Slack (1895–1903) and Grimsby (1903–8).
Archer was strongly influenced by the great Baptist preacher and Fabian socialist John Clifford, who taught him to be 'a prophet as well as an evangelist, a citizen as well as saint, a socialist as well as a foreign mission enthusiast'. Two other Baptist models for the young Archer were Thomas Cooper, an early Chartist, and Robert Hall, an anti-slavery campaigner. Although theologically conservative and evangelical, Archer was committed to the social gospel and he developed a passionate and enduring commitment to Christian socialism. In England he belonged to the Fabian Society and was an early member of the Labour Party.
Archer was elected to the school board at Hebden Bridge, near Heptonstall, in 1901. At Grimsby he served as a Poor Law guardian. He was active in opposing the Education Act 1902 which taxed ratepayers to support voluntary schools. Many Protestants refused to pay and goods were seized by officials. Archer lost some of his theological books but bought them back at auction. He was to remain a committed opponent of state aid to private schools.
In 1908 Archer and his family moved to New Zealand where he became minister of the Baptist Church, Napier. Subsequently, he was minister at Esk Street, Invercargill (1913–16), and Vivian Street, Wellington (1916–19). He also served for part of that time as a military chaplain at Tauherenikau Camp, near Featherston. From 1919 until 1932 he was minister of the Baptist Church in Sydenham, Christchurch. After his retirement in 1932 he remained active in the church, serving as president of the Canterbury Auxiliary of the Baptist Union, organising a Sunday school in Christchurch and helping to start a Baptist church at Greymouth.
A powerful preacher and socially committed pastor at the local level, Archer was also active and prominent nationally within the Baptist denomination and the wider Christian community, especially the prohibition movement. He became a member of the executive committee of the Baptist Union of New Zealand in 1909 and was appointed to preach the Union sermon at the 1910 annual assembly of the Union. He was president of the Central Auxiliary to the Baptist Union from 1910 to 1911. From 1912 to 1918 he was secretary of the New Zealand Baptist Missionary Society and from 1916 to 1918 president of the Baptist Union of New Zealand. He won the latter position from the minister of the Mount Eden Baptist Church, Howard Elliott, only after the Baptist assembly had voted twice.
Archer was not only a prominent leader in the Baptist church but also gave long and influential service to the early New Zealand Labour Party. Prior to its formation in 1916 he was an active advocate of such a party. In 1910 at Napier he delivered six evening lectures on socialism, and in 1913 he was editor of the United Labour Leader, promising to 'wage increasing war' against the 'parasite' and the 'sponger'. Following the July 1913 Unity Congress he joined the new Social Democratic Party, which was absorbed into the Labour Party in 1916.
Archer stood unsuccessfully as Labour candidate for the House of Representatives four times: in Invercargill (1919), Christchurch North (1922 and 1928), and Kaiapoi (1931). The Labour Party appointed him a member of the Legislative Council in 1937. Archer was disappointed that he never became a member of Parliament, but with inexhaustible energy he threw himself into the organisational leadership of the party and into local government. He was president of the party from 1928 to 1929 and served six terms as vice president between 1922 and 1931. On several occasions he clashed with Michael Joseph Savage over land and liquor issues.
At the local government level Archer was an Invercargill borough councillor (1915–16) before serving as a Labour Party representative on the Christchurch City Council (1921–35). From 1925 to 1931 he was mayor of Christchurch, winning three successive elections. He was also a top-polling candidate for the North Canterbury Hospital Board and served on the Christchurch Tramway Board and Christchurch Fire Board.
A strong supporter of the Workers' Educational Association, John Archer tutored in economics during and immediately after the First World War. He was, for example, foundation president of the Invercargill WEA in 1915 and subsequently active in the WEA in Christchurch. He was publicly attacked in the press and criticised as a dangerous revolutionary. Sir Robert Stout, chief justice of New Zealand and chancellor of the University of New Zealand, criticised him at a meeting of the university senate. Consequently, the senate decided to investigate the grants it made to support the WEA. When Stout refused to make his criticisms in public Archer sued the New Zealand Times, which had published Stout's remarks, and won.
In 1918 he delivered one of the most powerful and controversial presidential addresses ever given to a Baptist assembly. It was published afterwards as a pamphlet entitled Covetousness. In it Archer expressed views on politics that arose naturally out of his religious convictions. After arguing that everyone was guilty of the sin of covetousness, he declared competitive commercialism to be the most un-Christian thing on earth and advocated the transfer of the business of producing and distributing the necessities of life from private to public hands. He urged Christians, Baptists in particular, to lead a movement to consecrate the ballot box to Christ and humanity: 'God and gold are, we believe, the alternatives. Labour, rightly understood, is the recognition of this truth'.
Described as 'a man of war from his youth up', Archer was a blunt, some suggested abrasive, man. Certainly, he was not one to compromise his principles or the message which he believed had been entrusted to him by God. His preaching and actions reflected the moral righteousness and millennialism of British puritanism and the urgent and total commitment to social change of the Old Testament prophets such as Isaiah and Amos. Nonconformist in religion and politics, he argued that 'faith without works is dead' and that imperfect human relationships arose out of economic and social injustice caused by sin, which he defined as selfishness and the worship of material self-interest. To Archer there was no conflict between his political and religious activities; both were the same sacred vocation. John Archer died in Christchurch on 25 July 1949 survived by his wife, Phoebe, and two sons.[9]
ARCHER HOME
IN 1955 the home of the Rev. John and Mrs Phoebe ARCHER at 166 Colombo Street, Beckenham was donated and turned in to a home for aged women opening with 6 residents. The Archer group has formed since.

Gemma and I both have our birthdays within a few days of each other so we decided to go back to Lincoln for another weekend to celebrate it.
Our last night in Lincoln was really Gemma's birthday night because we were going back home on her birthday the next day. We found a new place with a light=up dance floor - Fever Boutique.
Good tunes and a great night although we didn't meet many people that night. Very enjoyable nonetheless and there's even video evidence of me dancing, ha ha!
At Fever Boutique with its light-up dance floor.

• Le Groupe d'experts intergouvernemental sur l'évolution du climat (Giec) a concluque la Terre continue de se réchauffer. Les experts climatiques affirment aussi que le niveau des mers va continuer de s'élever et les phénomènes météorologiques extrêmes se multiplier.
«Seule une action des humains peut sauver le monde» (John Kerry, ministre américain des Affaires étrangères). «S'il y a un dossier qui réclame plus de coopération et d'engagement diplomatique, c'est bien celui-là. Ceux qui contredisent la science et cherchent des excuses pour ne pas agir jouent avec le feu. Les coûts de l'inaction augmentent au delà de ce chaque personne dotée de conscience ou de sens commun voudrait voir un jour arriver.»
«La France est mobilisée» (Laurent Fabius, Philippe Martin et Pascal Canfin). Dans un communiqué commun, Laurent Fabius, ministre des Affaires étrangères, Philippe Martin, ministre de l'Écologie, du Développement durable et de l'Énergie, et Pascal Canfin, ministre délégué chargé du Développement, «saluent l'adoption unanime à Stockholm du premier volume du cinquième rapport du Giec qui confirme la réalité dramatique du changement climatique». «La première décennie du 21e siècle (2001-2010) a été la plus chaude depuis 1850. L'augmentation de la température moyenne à la surface du globe, l'élévation du niveau des océans et l'accélération de la fonte des glaciers sont confirmées comme des faits scientifiques incontestables. La France est mobilisée pour construire un pacte mondial sur le climat en 2015 qui engagera toutes les parties prenantes sur une limitation des émissions de gaz à effet de serre afin de contenir l'évolution des températures en deçà de 2°C à l'horizon 2100.»
«La vérité qui dérange est confirmée» (un collectif d'ONG). «Après 25 ans de rapports par le Giec, la vérité qui dérange est confirmée : le changement climatique est réel, il se produit à un rythme alarmant et les activités humaines, principalement la combustion, le provoquent», a indiqué dans un communiqué un collectif d'ONG dont Greenpeace, WWF, Oxfam et Les Amis de la Terre. «Nous savons déjà que le secteur de l'énergie est le principal coupable, mais aussi la principale solution au changement climatique», ajoutent ces ONG, pour qui «les énergies renouvelables constituent une solution simple, avérée et économiquement abordable». «Le débat au sujet de qui est responsable est clos», a estimé Wael Hmaidan, le directeur de l'ONG Climate Action Network International, qui regroupe 850 associations.

• Climat : une crise «aggravée» depuis 2007, dénonce Al Gore
Al Gore, co-lauréat du prix Nobel de la Paix en 2007 avec les experts du climat du Giec, estime que la crise climatique «s'est aggravée» depuis six ans, dans «Le Monde» daté de jeudi 12 septembre.
«Nous continuons à déverser chaque jour dans l'atmosphère 90 millions de tonnes d'émissions polluantes, comme si c'était un égout à ciel ouvert, souligne l'ancien vice-président américain dans cet entretien. On en mesure les conséquences : des sécheresses plus intenses et des orages qui déversent des pluies beaucoup plus fortes. Les prévisions pour la France, l'Italie, l'Espagne, tout le sud de l'Europe sont particulièrement catastrophiques», juge Al Gore, qui publie ce jeudi, en France, son nouveau livre «Le Futur. Six logiciels pour changer le monde».
Depuis qu'il a alerté sur le changement climatique, notamment avec son documentaire «Une vérité qui dérange», Al Gore constate toutefois une baisse de la mobilisation. Un phénomène notamment dû, selon lui, à «la grande récession de l'automne 2008», à «la découverte de vastes réserves de gaz de schiste exploitables grâce aux progrès technologiques réalisés dans les forages horizontaux et la fracturation hydraulique» ou l'échec du sommet de Copenhague en 2009.
Un «renversement de situation» depuis deux ans
Malgré cela, il affirme être optimiste en raison d'un «renversement de situation» depuis deux ans. «Les événements météorologiques extrêmes liés à la crise climatique sont devenus trop massifs et trop fréquents pour être ignorés», souligne-t-il, citant l'ouragan Sandy qui a frappé New York, les incendies dans l'Ouest américain ou encore les inondations au Pakistan et en Australie.
Plusieurs dirigeants mondiaux, assure aussi Al Gore, sont désormais mobilisés autour du sujet climatique, à commencer par le président américain Barack Obama qui «a changé» depuis sa réélection et qui, désormais, «pense davantage à la marque qu'il va laisser dans l'histoire».

A l'occasion de la sortie de son livre «Plus haut que mes rêves», Nicolas Hulot est revenu sur son expérience politique et sa défaite lors de la primaire écologiste pour la présidentielle de 2012.
lâché au front», a-t-il déploré sur i>Télé. Il regrette de ne pas avoir été soutenu, d'avoir même été attaqué, alors que l'écologie, au-delà des querelles de parti, est, pour lui, une question «universelle». «Le modèle économique de demain est déterminé par la crise écologique», affirme-t-il.
Nicolas Hulot reconnaît que «des gens n'ont peut-être pas compris tous les choix que j'ai faits». «En demandant le soutien des Verts en 2012, des gens se sont dits que c'était peut-être un engagement partisan». Pourtant, «c'est noble d'avoir une ambition politique, car on passe de la prise de conscience à l'action», se défend-il. Mais «c'est la décision la plus incongrue de mon existence, un mauvais choix puisque la greffe n'a pas pris». Il raconte avoir reçu le soutien et les mises en garde de l'ancien président de la République, «Jacques Chirac, a qui je demande conseil. Il me dit que je vais m'en prendre plein la gueule, mais qu'il faut que j'y aille».
«Daniel Cohn-Bendit m'a déçu»
Celui qui est aujourd'hui envoyé spécial de l’Elysée pour la préservation de la planète reste amer à l'égard de Daniel Cohn-Bendit, qui ne l'a pas soutenu lors des primaires, en critiquant notamment vertement le documentaire qu'il avait réalisé, «le Syndrome du Titanic». «Il m'a déçu à l'époque parce que j'avais besoin de lui», dit-il. Sur Europe 1, il a déploré les conséquences de cette attitude pour la question écologique. «Cela a été un immense gâchis pour l'écologie, car on pouvait faire la jonction entre cet enjeu majeur et la socité française. Cela porte un préjudice dont on a du mal à se remettre. Depuis cette campagne calamiteuse qui a donné une image tragique de l'écologie, il y a une forme d'irritation dans la société vis-à-vis de l'écologie et de ceux qui la défendent.»
«Dany, tu n'as pas été là»
Daniel Cohn-Bendit a d'ailleurs reconnu sur Europe 1 que «Nicolas Hulot aurait été le meilleur candidat». «Nous nous sommes trompés», a-t-il déclaré. «Il aurait été le meilleur candidat crédible de l'écologie aux dernières présidentielles. Nous avons raté un grand rendez-vous avec lui, il a raté un grand rendez-vous avec nous. C'est de notre faute». Et de poursuivre, à propos du documentaire de Nicolas Hulot : «Je l'ai blessé. Je n'ai pas aimé son film, le Syndrome du Titanic, que j'ai trouvé anxiogène et éthiquement discutable. Je l'ai dit le soir de la première, c'était méchant et inutile.»
Cette question mise de côté, Nicolas Hulot regarde devant et juge qu'«il va falloir que les écologistes fassent leur mue et comprennent pourquoi ils ne sont pas recevables». Sur i>Télé, il leur a donné un conseil pédagogique. «Les Verts sont les seuls à porter un sujet essentiel. Ils sont tellement convaincus du bien-fondé de leur combat, qu'ils en oublient de se mettre du point de vue de ceux auxquels ils s'adressent, et qui n'ont pas les mêmes préoccupations.»

PLUS HAUT QUE MES RÊVES, DE NICOLAS HULOT
"Qu'es-tu venu faire dans cette galère ? Mes amis n'ont cessé de me poser la question quand je me suis porté candidat à l'investiture d'Europe Écologie-Les Verts pour la Présidentielle 2012. Pourquoi entrer dans cette ronde du pouvoir après avoir passé tant d'années avec la nature, sa simplicité, sa puissance et le message d'humilité qu'elle ne cesse de nous prodiguer ? C'est justement par amour pour elle que je suis entré dans ce costume improbable. C'est Ushuaïa qui m'a mené vers ce combat.
Qu'es-tu venu faire dans cette galère ? La réponse est dans l'itinéraire d'une vie. Une vie plus haute que mes rêves. Ces vingt-cinq années à travers les contrées les plus éblouissantes de la planète m'ont fait tisser un lien indéfectible et charnel avec la nature. Et j'ai compris que c'est aux hommes de sauver la beauté du monde qui donne un sens à leur existence. Aux hommes de préserver la terre, notre avenir. Ces pages sont l'écho de ce chemin qui part du cœur de la Terre vers le cœur des hommes pour la Vie." (Nicolas Hulot, juillet 2013)
Extrait de presse :
"De son long cheminement il s'explique dans un livre très personnel, où il revient en détail sur l'échec de son incursion en politique, rend un bel hommage à ses années d'aventurier aux quatre coins du monde, avec l'équipe d'Ushuaïa. Et martèle l'urgence du combat écologique."

A couple of anti-video comments that people made in the comments section of one of my videos. This one.
I thought it was really thoughtful that these users took the time to actually seek out my video (which had nothing to do with the pro vs. anti video debate), and post negative comments in my photostream.
As I recall, one of the main worries that anti-video folks have expressed is that the comments on videos would degrade into the vitriolic "u suck" negativity often found on YouTube. So what do they do about it? Apparently, they post negative "u suck" comments on flickr videos. They are becoming the change they DIDN'T want to see.
Talk about a self-fulfilling prophecy.
