One such face painting book I was reading said that there are no mistakes in face painting.

This was not my original design at all. My goal was to take on a reptillian appearance, but that obviously failed. I started with a base coat of blue paint, much the color of the wig. Then I took a wig cap and put it on top of my face, and went over that with a coat of black. However, I realized 2 minutes in, that the basecoat should have been black, and the over color should have been blue, and that I used way to much water on my sponge. You can see a little of what the effect was supposed to look like on my bottom lip and on my cheeks.

After removing the cap, I realized that the design was a fail, so I took to a brush and just went wild with swirlies. I've not done a dark paint in a while, so what's old is new again. I tried a couple of wigs with this, but this one I think, made the tiny bits of blue that are still visible, pop just a tad.

I think I'll finish this week out with one or two more face paintings, and then I'll go back to my non-imaginative real face and life. I must say, that this has been really fun. My past 365 project brought the power of transformation to the forefront for me. I mean taking pictures of your normal face for 365 days gets a little boring. I mean, most of us hate taking that employee picture or that school book picture, and that's just once or twice a year...now imagine 365 images of yourself...well, I didn't have to imagine...I did it!

What's on the docket today: well, I just got my official camera bag in the mail today, and it has surpassed my expectations. Will post a pic soon. Whatever I'm going to do today, it needs to involve a lot of walking. I've been cooped up all week and I need to release some of that energy. I'm surfing the net to find a new photography project. I need to get back to my photo adventure Saturdays. I've been on vacation and traveling the last 2 weeks, so its nice to be grounded and in some sort of controlled routine again.

The American Farm Heritage Museum was one man's dream. The Museum became a reality when a group of men, mostly farmers, sitting in coffee shop, talked about the dream of building a museum to preserve the farm heritage. Sixty farmers, collectors, and civic leaders held a meeting to share their ideas with the public in April of 2002. It was agreed that Bond County, being near the middle of the state and right along 1-70, would be the perfect place. Meetings were conducted, fundraisers were held, and ideas were passed around. In 2002 the land for the museum was acquired and a name for the museum was chosen.

The American Farm Heritage Museum would sit on seventeen acres, along the south side of interstate 70, just east of the Route 127 overpass. Its goal would be to promote and share the heritage of America's rural life: living, farming and travel. One very generous family purchased the land and leased it for ninety-nine years to the American Farm Heritage Museum, NFP organization. After a year of planning, the first 32'x64' building, with a gambrel roof, was completed. It was finished just days before the first Heritage Days Show in July 2004. This building, originally was to be a tractor maintenance shop, but later became known as the Lil' Red Barn Museum.

In the winter of 2005, owners of a truck terminal building in St. Louis gave the building to the Museum, if we took it down. Several members went to work and got the 200'x100' building moved and rebuilt. Since then other buildings and groups have been added to the show grounds.

We are growing with each passing year. Our Main building is the site of numerous events throughout the year. The Lil' Red Barn is a little piece of history, with collections of items from the past. In 2009 this building received the Illinois Governor's Home Town Award. The Tractor Shed displays different makes of tractors and tools of the past. Our Christmas building, which operates as a work shop and houses all the Christmas boxes for The Christmas Lights Wonderland, partners with The Lil' Red Barn, Railroad, Hill's Fort and the Armed Forces Museum to put on a spectacular Christmas display.

The American Heritage Railroad, established in 2003 is a division of the American Farm Heritage Museum. Many rail-enthusiast members realized as farms were connected by the American Railroad so should the Museum have an operating railroad for its historic value, as well as provide a fun ride for visitors. May 10, 2005 the railroad division was officially formed and an intensive search began to procure equipment. Many thousands of hours of volunteer labor, by friends of the railroad, have resulted in over a mile of 13" gauge track being laid, on the grounds. It is our desire to honor the great railroads that have served Bond County, such as the Vandalia, Nickel Plate, Pennsylvania and CB & Q. In 2005 the Ben Winter's Museum railroad was purchased which provided a G-15 diesel train set. The final move of the Ben Winter's railroad was completed in November, in three days with 20 volunteers, 9 trailers and one semi-truck. The collection has grown to include both diesel and steam engines and a variety of rolling stock. The railroad owns three steam locomotives. It is hoped the 1926 Wagner 4-4-2 steam engine will be ready for operation for the 2015 season.

2005 Hill's Fort also joined the Museum. Hill's Fort played an important part in the opening of Northwest Territory. Hill's Fort may have started as early as 1806 when early settlers first arrived. The Fort's location appears on an 1808 survey map by Capt. Isaac Hill, leader of a team commissioned by President Thomas Jefferson to survey the Illinois Territory. The Legislature fixed Hill's Fort as the temporary county seat. Earliest records are preserved from Hill's Fort and include court and marriage dockets. The Bond County seat was later moved to Perrysville and, in 1821 to Greenville, Illinois. No longer useful as a fort or county seat, Hill's Fort was abandoned and fell to ruin.

Following excruciating study of the original site, a replica of the Fort has been recreated on the grounds of the Farm Museum. It is open to the public on the 1st Saturday of the month from May through October and also open, for tours and special occasions. At Christmas time they are open Friday and Saturday nights for the Christmas lights. They dress in period dress and cook over the open fireplace in the cabin, and are eager to answer questions.

In 2012 The Armed Forces Museum, "Memories of Steel", joined our Museum. It maintains as its sole mission, to preserve these important pieces of military history. The Museum houses one of the largest collections of military vehicles in the County. It currently watches over approximately 15 privately-owned and 25 museum-owned vehicles. The members are involved in a program called "Living history" which furnishes displays of t1istoric vehicles and memorabilia and, works with re-enactors at civil events like Armed Forces Day and Veterans Day. Each of these vehicles has an historic story and plays a very important role in connecting us with the soldiers who lived and died in their service to the country.

The late afternoon sun splashes a warm glow across the decaying facade of the abandoned Laine's Grocery Store. It was built in the mid 1850's but has been empty since the early 1980's El Nino floods damaged her. She dies a slow death. Restoration or repair is not on the docket, just letting her be what she is until she is gone seems to be the agenda.

Chassis number : 2AU

Describing its displayed wares as ‘the best cars in the world’ at the 1906 Olympia Motor Show, over one hundred years later Rolls-Royce has developed a hallowed reputation for smoothness, silence, grace and reliability the world over.

This particular 7-litre car – chassis number 2AU/engine number E71676/ registration number BF5105 – holds a significant place in the history of not one but two marques: Rolls-Royce and Bugatti. It was purchased in 1926 by Ettore Bugatti who sought inspiration for his soon-to-be conceived luxury car, the Bugatti Royale. Indeed, in a letter to Dr Espanet as early as 1913 he writes of a car ‘larger than a Hispano-Suiza’, which appears to have been crossed out and altered in his own hand to ‘Rolls-Royce’.

This machine, sporting its original Million-Guiet French coachwork – as ordered by the Rolls-Royce factory – was the marque’s display car at the Paris Salon, which was arguably the most prestigious car show in the world at that time. It was then sold in early 1925 to Monsieur Dutasta of Paris, before being acquired by the automobile alchemist, Ettore Bugatti. What exactly Ettore did with the car is unclear, but what is known is that it was loved and used as a family car for nearly forty years before being sold in 1963 to French racing driver, Maurice Trintignant, who had been looking after the car for the Bugattis. As ownership endorsements go, it frankly doesn’t get much better…

In 1966 the car was sold to Pierre Delliere who displayed it for some time in his Musee Automobile de Provence in Orgon. Then, in the 1970s, the car was acquired by Count Frederic Chandon de Brialles who oversaw the total restoration of its leather interior and coachwork. In later life (2003) the Rolls was purchased by Formula One driver, Jean Alesi, before current custodian, a Mr Daniel Brooks, took ownership two years later.

An extensive history file accompanies the car, including the inspection dockets from the original build, restoration documentation and accompanying photographs.

Accident occurred Thursday, March 04, 1999 in KANSAS CITY, MO

Probable Cause Approval Date: 01/10/2001

Aircraft: Douglas DC-9-15F, registration: N195US

Injuries: 2 Uninjured.

The airplane was cleared to land on runway 19R at the Kansas City International Airport. The first officer said that the airplane was on speed and on course for the visual approach. 'The captain had just called the 1,000 feet [above the ground] call when a flock of snow geese suddenly illuminated in our lights, engulfing us from below, flying into us. No birds hit the windshields, but it was immediately apparent they had flown into the engines.' The captain said that he had the airplane, advanced the power on both engines, and ordered the first officer to reset the flaps to 30 degrees, the single- engine flap position. 'The number one engine continued to compressor stall. The number two engine went to a sub-idle run condition.' The captain reduced the power on the number one engine 'enough to lessen the surge/stall condition to a rate of once every two seconds, which allowed just enough thrust to maintain the approach and to lower the vibration. The number one engine continued to compressor stall/surge to touchdown.' The touchdown was normal. Examination of the airplane revealed bird remains and substantial damage to both engines. No other anomalies were found.

The National Transportation Safety Board determines the probable cause(s) of this accident to be:

ingestion of birds into both engines, resulting in foreign object damage and the subsequent partial power loss to both engines. A factor relating to this accident was the dark night.

“Demons cluttering around my face showing no emotion. Shackled by my sentence expecting no return.”

My Own Prison: Creed, My Own Prison

This is a rather dark song from Creed, touching in on the darker side of religion with judgment, doom, angels and demons. This song really sums a lot about the life of fear and what it’s like living under that fear… it’s a horrible part of life to live by and under.

The point to this song really is that we have the keys to freedom, but we keep ourselves shackled by fear- where love sets us free. I have been shackled and set free. Once we’re free we either live and experience life, or stay in one place… isn’t that still bound?

The lyrics paint such a wonderful imagery of judgment day- influence of angels and demons and all the religious imagery. The song being played in “Drop-D” always gives that little extra edge of Darkness to it. I am very glad that Creed reunited because they have a lot of talent… but I am hoping their follow up album is better than the last year release!

*** Artist Notes ***

The shackles are small Mandarin Orange cans painted silver chrome. Lighting was changed through Olympus Software.

Lyrics:

A court is in session A verdict is in

No appeal on the docket today, just my own sin

The walls are cold and pale the cage made of steel

Screams fill the room alone I drop and kneel

Silence now the sound my breath the only motion around

Demons cluttering around my face showing no emotion

Shackled by my sentence expecting no return

Here there is no penance my skin begins to burn

So I held my head up high hiding hate that burns inside which

only fuels there selfish pride

We're all held captive out from the sun

A sun that shines on only some

We the meek are all in one

I hear a thunder in the distance see a vision of a cross

I feel the pain that was given on that sad day of loss

A lion roars in the darkness only he holds the key

A light to free me from my burden and grant me life eternally

Should have been dead on a Sunday morning banging my head no time for

mourning - ain't got no time

I cry out to God seeking only his decision

Gabriel stands and confirms

I've created my own prison

You can find several circumstances of couples who elevate little ones which have been not their own individual. Adoption could be the main explanation for this. Moms and dads of adopted children have found the capability to love a toddler that is not biologically theirs. To them, shared DNA isn't a second assumed. However, there may be a lesser acknowledged group which is on the rise. This group would be the gentlemen who will be unsure of the paternity of the kid which they may or may not have fathered with their husband or wife and however opt to just take a role while in the parenting.

Innovations in engineering just about every working day and built less difficult and even more economical to check paternity in as tiny being a week. Prolonged back individuals may possibly have contacted at daytime converse exhibit because this was the only entry to a paternity take a look at they could have.

Many gentlemen would simply just stroll away from the relationship if through tests of paternity it confirmed that there is a 0% prospect they might hassle. This assertion is completely fair and many people would concur. Taking obligation for a child is emotionally and monetarily exhausting. What's this human being are not able to consider care of on their own economically and now tasked with supporting a child which will not be biologically associated. This results in being this primarily tricky if the boy or girl gets outdated adequate to understand which the individual they believed was their father will not be concerned. This will also be hard for that male to depart a kid which they lifted.

There are several scenarios of adult men who later come across and verify that they're not the father in the kid they lifted. These fathers elevate the child as their particular and for them sharing DNA isn't consider their relationship. Top quality this sort of as that is exception.

An exceptionally troubling facet of this is the truth the little one might happen to be conceived in the course of a crack up or worse an affair. This could bring on thoughts of symbolizing the child together with the unsuccessful romantic relationship. Provided time and at times counseling lots of fathers and choose to lift the child as their very own.

Ignoring the genetics these fathers, despite the original psychological discomfort, shopping for the job of elevating a youngster very gratifying. Marriages and associations may become stronger given that the few bond and share in the race shop. This is actually the most effective scenario state of affairs. But as numerous men and women know this is not the norm.

Sad to say, this is simply not always as easy when you might imagine. If a man finds out he's not the father, but nonetheless wishes being a part of that child’s existence, he would wish to own the blessings with the mother. The mother may possibly want this or she could choose to find out who the actual father is so she will accumulate little one assistance amid other factors. Too, that child has a correct to understand who her or his organic father is that if for no other motive than the ability to garner household clinical background. It really will become extremely challenging with regard to moral, legal, and moral ramifications for these families.

These situations have brought about an increase in DNA tests for relationships. The raising acceptance as discovered people today all around the Usa and the environment sending samples to labs for testing. Assortment of samples is rather simple which is done using a basic saliva swab from your interior cheek. Advancements while in the technologies use plus the maximize in testing is lobbyist should be inexpensive and precise. This is often really helpful for those who are only interested curiosity and never for legal functions applied in the court docket of legislation.

The key difference between Legal and Non-legal paternity tests is what will and will not maintain up inside a court of law. Just put, Non Legal Screening does not have to have an identification verification method, meaning the effects will not hold up in the court docket of law. Also to curiosity testing getting extra reasonably priced than ever before, exams can commonly be dispatched directly to your own home (or maybe sent to 2 different addresses if needed), which eradicates the inconvenience of finding a laboratory inside your region. Nevertheless, make certain to do your investigation, as some companies will mail samples to other nations around the world that don't set the identical high expectations that the USA calls for.

When choosing a examination for legal functions, you can need to pick out a business that works by using labs which have been AABB and ISO accredited, as these accreditations are essential for legal tests to carry up in court docket. Also, you could wish to think about wherever the sample might be tested once they are attained. Once again, do your research on wherever samples are sent once they are gathered on the laboratory.

These exams share the same accuracy whether it's home paternity or legal paternity. Both kinds of screening endure the rigorous double-blind testing, which means that distinctive land tax from diverse screening laboratories will perform two entirely separate tests from your similar sample. Just after tests a 3rd laboratory technician will watch the outcome and compared, final results ought to be meticulously assess and in comparison right before there will be finalized. These ways make certain that human error are unable to impact the end result from the tests.

With DNA paternity testing it could possibly seem a little bit confused taking into consideration the reality that it bargains together with the paternity on the kid. The thought of staying a father can be terrifying and intimidating and once you insert the point that the kid may not biologically be yours it may possibly make the specific situation tough. Any individual can father baby but it requires a exclusive individual to become a superb father. The decision to learn the paternity on the child is often a selection you have to make for yourself and what feels ideal for you.

A group of students and teachers from California gained knowledge about Birmingham’s segregated educational past by visiting the Birmingham Public Library as part of a civil rights tour of Alabama.

The students and teachers from Oakwood School, a private K-12 school in North Hollywood, visited Birmingham, Montgomery, and Selma. While in Birmingham, they visited the Central Library downtown. Here is background on Oakwood School: www.oakwoodschool.org/.

At the Central Library, the students saw the 1963 jail docket that records the arrest of Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. and other civil rights demonstrators, bomb fragments from the 1962 bombing of Bethel Baptist Church, and an early copy of the "Letter from Birmingham Jail," said Jim Baggett, head of the Archives and Manuscripts Department in Central Library.

Baggett talked to the Oakwood students and teachers about BPL’s civil rights documents, and took a photo of the group as they discussed maps that show Birmingham's segregated school districts from the 1940s. This is the second time students from Oakwood have visited BPL. Over the years, the Birmingham Public Library has hosted teacher groups from across the United States and teachers from around the U.S. and England.

In Green Township, Ohio, a high school art class has found a unique way to fuse an art history lesson with an art class. Each year, a teacher has the students paint their car- no, not paint an image of the car, but actually put paint on the vehicle- in a style of a famous artist. 2011’s artist was Claude Monet, and the students all painted a car in the style which Monet made famous. The teacher whose car is used gets to select the artist of their choice for the inspiration. The group of young artists learns about the artist and then imitates their style.

In 2012, the artist of choice was the famous pop America artist Peter Max. Max’s art has evolved over time, and as a true pop artist he has remained connected with what the public want and has been able to keep his art current and relevant. In the 1960s, he was known for his counter cultural psychedelic art and is credited for single handedly created the poster craze. After that point, Peter Max art has focused on mixed media elements, patriotic and humanitarian themes. For this project, the class needed to narrow down the scope, so they emphasized Peter Max’s 1960s style first credited for turning him into a famous artist. The students say that the final product was inspired by the famous Beatles Album Yellow Submarine, which interestingly enough was not created by Peter Max. The art was created by another artist inspired by Peter Max’s 1960s style. In addition to Peter Max art influences, the painted car also paid homage to the Cleveland area with local images included the skyline integrated into the finished product.

What’s on the docket for next year? Well, the teacher whose car is being used selected the famous Vincent Van Gogh. It should produce some interesting and exciting results!

The court docket was filled with suits concerning mining claims. Criminal cases were not as common as you may think.

A Saturday, July 11th, view of the Waitomo fuel stop signage at Foxton's Tasman Fish & Cafe on SH1 that was the site of Foxton BP until the pumps closed on Friday, July 18th, 2008, and for almost 7 years, Foxton Mobil, about a kilometre north up the highway, has had the Foxton fuel sales monopoly since.

But all that changed on the afternoon of Friday, July 10th, when the 24/7 self-serve Pay 'N Pump Waitomo fuel stop opened for business, selling 91 octane for $1.89.9 a litre, forcing Foxton Mobil to drop their price from $2.04.9 to $1.93.9 a litre, bringing a healthy return of competition for Foxton motorists and into the bargain making Foxton fuel cheaper than in nearby Levin and Palmerston North.

PETROL PUMPS OFF AS FOXTON BP WINDS UP

22/07/2008

Foxton shoppers who cherish their discount fuel vouchers will now have to travel at least 20km to cash them in.

On Friday [18 July 2008] the local BP petrol station officially switched off its pumps in preparation for shutting-up shop for good.

The closure is a blow to residents who buy their groceries at the local New World, which offers a discount at BP on its dockets.

Local New World owner-operator George Samson had not been warned the BP was closing, and said he was "shocked" by the news, and disappointed for his customers.

The discount vouchers were important to a lot of people, but now they would be worthless because people would have to travel to Levin or Palmerston North to use them, he said.

"Now my customers are going to say they're a waste of time, because I have to spend money to try and save money."

But he did not expect there to be any long-term effects on his business.

Jean and Stuart Marshall have owned the BP for 20 years and had about 10 employees, who were a mix of full and part-time.

While the pumps were off, the shop was remaining open until remaining stock was cleared, Mrs Marshall said yesterday.

She would not say why they had decided to close.

"I'd prefer not to make any comments."

Soaring fuel costs had made life hard though, she said.

"Petrol pricing is an issue that affects everybody, and margins are almost non-existent for independent operators. It makes it very difficult."

An armed robbery in May had played a role in the decision, but was not the deciding factor, she said.

"We've had several [robberies], and it's all part of the mix."

It was sad having to shut the doors. "Twenty-years of our life here, and we basically built it from a little garage."

They were yet to decide what they would do with the land, and she would not say what would happen to any remaining fuel or the tanks.

BP New Zealand spokeswoman Diana Stretch said they were in negotiations with the Marshalls about the issue.

Mobil Foxton owner Bob Wilkinson said tiny margins and a growing number of drive-offs meant it was a hard business to be now.

They had been marginally busier since the closure, but he was sad to see the competition closing.

"I'd rather see both of us thriving, but in the present climate it's very difficult to do that." - Manawatu Standard

The American Farm Heritage Museum was one man's dream. The Museum became a reality when a group of men, mostly farmers, sitting in coffee shop, talked about the dream of building a museum to preserve the farm heritage. Sixty farmers, collectors, and civic leaders held a meeting to share their ideas with the public in April of 2002. It was agreed that Bond County, being near the middle of the state and right along 1-70, would be the perfect place. Meetings were conducted, fundraisers were held, and ideas were passed around. In 2002 the land for the museum was acquired and a name for the museum was chosen.

The American Farm Heritage Museum would sit on seventeen acres, along the south side of interstate 70, just east of the Route 127 overpass. Its goal would be to promote and share the heritage of America's rural life: living, farming and travel. One very generous family purchased the land and leased it for ninety-nine years to the American Farm Heritage Museum, NFP organization. After a year of planning, the first 32'x64' building, with a gambrel roof, was completed. It was finished just days before the first Heritage Days Show in July 2004. This building, originally was to be a tractor maintenance shop, but later became known as the Lil' Red Barn Museum.

In the winter of 2005, owners of a truck terminal building in St. Louis gave the building to the Museum, if we took it down. Several members went to work and got the 200'x100' building moved and rebuilt. Since then other buildings and groups have been added to the show grounds.

We are growing with each passing year. Our Main building is the site of numerous events throughout the year. The Lil' Red Barn is a little piece of history, with collections of items from the past. In 2009 this building received the Illinois Governor's Home Town Award. The Tractor Shed displays different makes of tractors and tools of the past. Our Christmas building, which operates as a work shop and houses all the Christmas boxes for The Christmas Lights Wonderland, partners with The Lil' Red Barn, Railroad, Hill's Fort and the Armed Forces Museum to put on a spectacular Christmas display.

The American Heritage Railroad, established in 2003 is a division of the American Farm Heritage Museum. Many rail-enthusiast members realized as farms were connected by the American Railroad so should the Museum have an operating railroad for its historic value, as well as provide a fun ride for visitors. May 10, 2005 the railroad division was officially formed and an intensive search began to procure equipment. Many thousands of hours of volunteer labor, by friends of the railroad, have resulted in over a mile of 13" gauge track being laid, on the grounds. It is our desire to honor the great railroads that have served Bond County, such as the Vandalia, Nickel Plate, Pennsylvania and CB & Q. In 2005 the Ben Winter's Museum railroad was purchased which provided a G-15 diesel train set. The final move of the Ben Winter's railroad was completed in November, in three days with 20 volunteers, 9 trailers and one semi-truck. The collection has grown to include both diesel and steam engines and a variety of rolling stock. The railroad owns three steam locomotives. It is hoped the 1926 Wagner 4-4-2 steam engine will be ready for operation for the 2015 season.

2005 Hill's Fort also joined the Museum. Hill's Fort played an important part in the opening of Northwest Territory. Hill's Fort may have started as early as 1806 when early settlers first arrived. The Fort's location appears on an 1808 survey map by Capt. Isaac Hill, leader of a team commissioned by President Thomas Jefferson to survey the Illinois Territory. The Legislature fixed Hill's Fort as the temporary county seat. Earliest records are preserved from Hill's Fort and include court and marriage dockets. The Bond County seat was later moved to Perrysville and, in 1821 to Greenville, Illinois. No longer useful as a fort or county seat, Hill's Fort was abandoned and fell to ruin.

Following excruciating study of the original site, a replica of the Fort has been recreated on the grounds of the Farm Museum. It is open to the public on the 1st Saturday of the month from May through October and also open, for tours and special occasions. At Christmas time they are open Friday and Saturday nights for the Christmas lights. They dress in period dress and cook over the open fireplace in the cabin, and are eager to answer questions.

In 2012 The Armed Forces Museum, "Memories of Steel", joined our Museum. It maintains as its sole mission, to preserve these important pieces of military history. The Museum houses one of the largest collections of military vehicles in the County. It currently watches over approximately 15 privately-owned and 25 museum-owned vehicles.

2005 Hill's Fort also joined the Museum. Hill's Fort played an important part in the opening of Northwest Territory. Hill's Fort may have started as early as 1806 when early settlers first arrived. The Fort's location appears on an 1808 survey map by Capt. Isaac Hill, leader of a team commissioned by President Thomas Jefferson to survey the Illinois Territory. The Legislature fixed Hill's Fort as the temporary county seat. Earliest records are preserved from Hill's Fort and include court and marriage dockets. The Bond County seat was later moved to Perrysville and, in 1821 to Greenville, Illinois. No longer useful as a fort or county seat, Hill's Fort was abandoned and fell to ruin.

Following excruciating study of the original site, a replica of the Fort has been recreated on the grounds of the Farm Museum. It is open to the public on the 1st Saturday of the month from May through October and also open, for tours and special occasions. At Christmas time they are open Friday and Saturday nights for the Christmas lights. They dress in period dress and cook over the open fireplace in the cabin, and are eager to answer questions.

In 2012 The Armed Forces Museum, "Memories of Steel", joined our Museum. It maintains as its sole mission, to preserve these important pieces of military history. The Museum houses one of the largest collections of military vehicles in the County. It currently watches over approximately 15 privately-owned and 25 museum-owned vehicles. The members are involved in a program called "Living history" which furnishes displays of t1istoric vehicles and memorabilia and, works with re-enactors at civil events like Armed Forces Day and Veterans Day. Each of these vehicles has an historic story and plays a very important role in connecting us with the soldiers who lived and died in their service to the country.

Believe it or not, we actually ventured out for a concert... on a Monday night! What could get us to slog all the way into Philly for some nachos at Jones and some music at Unicorn Transfer? Why, Godspeed You! Black Emperor, of course!

We're not actually huge fans of the band. In fact, we went many years where we both sort of fell into refusing them based on the stupidity of their band name and the bigger stupidity of their album titles. (Judging a book by its cover is always a great idea, kids. ::shifty eyes::) A chance discovery of one of their records at Princeton Record Exchange reignited the Godspeed fire at Maple Hoo, and then lo and behold, they were in town. So off we went, dragging our feet the whole way there.

Thanks heavens we did go, because the show was amazing! The tone was set early on, as the pre-show music piped through the venue was some absolutely gorgeous piano/string stuff. Normally, the pre-show music serves to make everyone especially antsy to hear good stuff. In this case, everyone sitting near us was furiously conferring over their music-ID apps trying to identify the musician. There was some talk that if that music just kept on all night, it would have been worth the trip.

Of course, if that music continued, we wouldn't have heard the opener, Xylouris White. They're a lute/drum duo, whose album is one of our favorites of this year. It's a gentle, beautiful, intellectual album, and we were both looking forward to letting some soft lute music set the table for the more intense Godspeed. As they were taking the stage, Schnookie said, "This looks like it would be the kind of concert your parents turn on during a PBS pledge drive. I'm going to be really impressed with them if I have to dig out my earplugs for this." The instant they started playing, we were both diving for the earplugs. Gentle and intellectual were not on the docket last night. It was still beautiful, of course, but so, so, so much more intense. I love seeing openers I'd never have known about if not for attending the show, but in this case, we both agreed we were really glad we'd heard the album first. It would be really disappointing to hear it expecting the white-hot intensity and freejazz lute-and-drum freakouts of their live show. A few years ago, we went to a John Zorn sax/bass/Dave Lombardo trio which a reviewer said was "like being strapped to the bottom of a speeding train". I never thought it possible, but listening to two middle-aged dudes with a small drum kit and a freakin' lute was more like being strapped to the bottom of a speeding train than anything else we've seen, including that Zorn trio.

It set the bar really high for Godspeed, but they delivered. Since we had run 15 miles the day before, and are looking at running 17 this coming weekend, we decided to snag two of the limited seats in the back of the balcony. I'm so glad we did, because it meant it was much easier to ignore the black-and-white "arty" film projections which I think actively worked against the music. It was funny to watch as the show went along how many more people chose to sit down and block their eyes. The music was so phenomenal, it was almost easier for me to close my eyes and imagine it just being conjured up out of the ether, than see that it was being manufactured by mere humans on electric guitars and violins. I ran into an old, curmudgeonly friend of ours before the show; when I said I'd never seen them live before he said, "I don't like to use this word, and I never use it lightly -- they're live shows are epic." He was so right. We've seen a lot of amazing shows, and seen a lot of bands I hold way more dear than Godspeed, but that show was really, truly EPIC.
