Weigela is a small genus of about 12 species of deciduous shrubs in the family Caprifoliaceae, growing to 1-5 m tall. All are natives of eastern Asia.
The leaves are 5-15 cm long, ovate-oblong with an acuminate tip, and with a serrated margin. The flowers are 2-4 cm long, with a five-lobed white, pink, or red (rarely yellow) corolla, produced in small corymbs of several together in early summer. The fruit is a dry capsule containing numerous small winged seeds.
Weigela species are used as food plants by the larvae of some Lepidoptera species including Brown-tail.
The genus is named after the German scientist Christian Ehrenfried Weigel.
The British Weigela national collection is held at Sheffield Botanical Gardens; along with the national collection of the closely related Diervilla genus.[1] The german Weigela national collection is held at Sichtungsgarten Weigela in Buckow, Maerkische Schweiz [2]
Several of the species are very popular ornamental shrubs in gardens, although species have been mostly superseded by hybrids (crosses between W. florida and other Asiatic species).

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geranium
Geranium is a genus of 422 species of flowering annual, biennial, and perennial plants that are commonly known as the cranesbills. It is found throughout the temperate regions of the world and the mountains of the tropics, but mostly in the eastern part of the Mediterranean region. These attractive flowers will grow in any soil as long as it is not waterlogged. Propagation is by semi-ripe cuttings in summer, by seed or by division in autumn or spring.
The species Geranium viscosissimum is considered to be protocarnivorous.
The name "cranesbill" derives from the appearance of the seed-heads, which have the same shape as the bill of a crane. The genus name is derived from the Greek γέρανος, géranos, or γερανός, geranós, crane. The long, palmately cleft leaves are broadly circular in form. Their rose, pink to blue or white flowers have 5 petals.
Cranesbills are eaten by the larvae of some Lepidoptera species including Brown-tail and Mouse Moth.
Confusingly, "geranium" is also the common name of members of the genus Pelargonium, which were formerly classified in the cranesbill genus. In the United States, true Geraniums are frequently distinguished from the less hardy Pelargoniums as (rather redundantly) "hardy geraniums" by gardeners and in the horticultural trade. One can make the distinction between the two by looking at the flowers: Geranium has symmetrical flowers, while Pelargonium has irregular or maculate petals. Other former members of the genus are now classified in genus Erodium, including the plants known as filarees in North America.

Priscilla Dames’ section in Wisdom G.I.F.T.S. is entitled Fighting with Cement: An Unorthodox Transformation. That book, co-authored with Kim Coles, actress and comedian is now a best seller. Ms. Dames is unorthodox. Perhaps that led to her recently being invited to speak in Belize for Women’s International Day. As she approached the age of seventy her message to the listener became, “Pivot and change your life!”
She speaks openly about her recent transformation in health and business. Now she has coined the phrase, ‘silly fun’. Her book, Jacking Yourself up for Intentional Transformation will be released this year at her annual W.O.W. Summit in Belize.
Priscilla Dames is a Conflict Resolution Trainer, Speaker, and Community Activist with over forty years of experience. Her lifelong interest in diversity led to an internship with the Martin Luther King Center for Nonviolence. This affiliation began at the Conflict Center for Resolution in Kenya, Africa and was completed with a visit to The King Nonviolence Center in Havana, Cuba.
Ms. Dames realized her dream when invited to train ex-militants in the Nigerian Amnesty Program in Nigeria, Africa in Kingian Transformational Nonviolence. During the recent pandemic, Ms. Dames became certified in Mind-Body Medicine as part of her own transformation. Her most recent awards are Special Congressional Recognition for Service to the Community by Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz and the Biden Presidential Lifetime Achievement Service Award.
Ms. Dames is Founder of Wingspan Seminars, whose mission is to provide seminars focusing on improving organizational relationships and prevention and intervention of conflict.

The newsletter of United Federal (later Public) Workers of America Local 28 entitled “Off the Shelf” and later retitled “LC Newsletter” sought to keep its members at the Library of Congress abreast of issues facing them and actions taken by the union.
The United Federal Workers of America Local 28 at the Library of Congress was organized in July 1937 after the officers of the former American Federation of Government Employees local union resigned en masse.
The letter said in part:
“We, the undersigned, your representatives to the Board of Local No. 2 herewith surrender our offices and our membership in Federal Employees Union, Local No. 2. We take this step only after deep thought and consultation believing as firmly as ever in the value of unionism to Government workers and fully recognizing the disadvantage of a divided front
“Our decision to leave the N. F. F. E. [National Federation of Federal Employees] is the result not merely of our dissatisfaction with that organization but of the formation of another union which we believe offers us the opportunity of supporting the principles which we approve.
“This organization is the United Federal Workers of America, affiliated with the C.I.O. [Committee of Industrial Organizations]. Believing that the destiny of Government workers is bound up with that of other workers we feel that our place is in an organization which will unite Government employees with other sections of the labor movement instead of isolating them in a separate group.”
Local 28 put out a monthly newsletter and led fights for fairness in promotion through the use of seniority, against racial discrimination at the library, against forced overtime, and lobbied congressional committees for increased pay, among other issues.
In one instance, it successfully defended a Black employee, Seth Major, against a racially motivated dismissal. The union showed that Major was only guilty of demanding to be treated as an equal with Whites.
It was successful in lobbying, along with the National Negro Congress and the CIO, for the hiring of the first two Black professional grade employees at the Library.
The national union merged with the CIO’s state employees’ union in 1946 becoming the United Public Workers of America.
The activist union represented employees at the Library of Congress into the early 1950s before the national union succumbed to red-baiting during the 2nd Red Scare and dissolved in 1952.
Red-baiting of former Local 28 members continued after the dissolution of the UPWA with Sen. Joseph McCarthy seeking to deny a passport to William P Bundy in 1953, who was a member of Local 28 for two months and attended one meeting.
Marie Richardson Harris was indicted on loyalty oath violations in 1951. She worked briefly at the Library of Congress with non-classified materials for a few months in 1948 and again 1949 and at the time of her arrest was living in New York City and operating a dry cleaning establishment with her husband.
She was charged with being a member of the Communist Party and the National Negro Congress, both of which were designated as subversive organizations by the U.S. Attorney General and failing to disclose them. She was convicted and served 4 ½ years in prison.
AFSCME Local 2910 representing professional employees and AFSCME Local 2477 representing blue collar employees are currently active at the Library of Congress. Black Employees of the Library of Congress was founded in 1970 and waged a long fight against discrimination within the Library and made significant gains..

This mural, entitled' "Cooperation", was painted in 1936 by Emil Bisttram under the TRAP (Treasury Relief Art Project) for the Roswell, NM United States Courthouse. When that building was destroyed, the mural was moved to the US CH-PO in ABQ where it was displayed on the 6th floor. It has since been restored and moved to the 1st floor entry way outside of the security part of the building.

These 39 pictures entitled "Colors of Fall in Yardley . . ." were all taken around my home in late October, pre-Hurricane Sandy. Number 7968 is a photo of the tree that came crashing down on two unsuspecting cars parked underneath it at the height of the hurricane.
Fall happens to be my favorite time of year and not just because pumpkin flavors are all the rage. From late September to early November, Mother Nature puts on her most spectacular show. Trees of all types slowly transition from their standard leaves to shades of red, orange, gold, brown, and even purple. Landscapes across the country pop with vibrant colors and serve as a brief reminder just how beautiful nature can be.
It's a great time for hiking and scenic drives and below are all the resources you need to make your trip happen. Whether you want to know just why leaves change their colors or are looking for where to see specific shades, the answers are here.
So Why Do Leaves Change Colors?
The answer lies in one word: chlorophyll. It's the chemical that gives leaves their green color. Chlorophyll is also responsible for photosynthesis - a process where plants turn water and carbon dioxide into oxygen and sugar. Confused? Let's back up to the basics.
Trees take water from the ground using their roots. They also take carbon dioxide from the air. But trees need oxygen and glucose to grow big and healthy. In order to do that, they use sunlight to turn the water and carbon dioxide into oxygen and glucose. That's photosynthesis. And chlorophyll helps make it happen.
When summer ends and autumn begins, there is less sunlight since the days get shorter. This is an important hint for trees and other plants to prepare themselves for the winter. Since there isn't enough light and water during the winter for photosynthesis, trees go into rest-mode and will feed off food they have stored up over summer. While processes shut down, chlorophyll starts to disappear from the leaves, taking away the green color. As the green fades, the leaves show other colors that have been there all along - yellow and orange. They have been hidden all summer by chlorophyll and during the fall, it is their time to shine!
You're probably wondering about the other signature colors of autumn - red, purple, and brown. Well, in some trees, such as maples, glucose is trapped in the leaves after photosynthesis stops. That glucose is turned into a red color from the sunlight and the cool nights of autumn. The brown color of trees, such as oaks, is made from tannin - a waste product left in the leaves.
The brilliance of colors you see every fall is directly related to weather conditions. The brightest colors are seen when late summer is dry, and autumn has bright sunny days and cool evenings. A good supply of rainfall also keeps the leaves on trees longer and helps to enhance the color.

The exhibition at the PinchukArtCentre is a milestone in the evolution of the artist’s oeuvre. With a total of 16 works presented on three floors – all of which, with a few exceptions, such as Beauty (1993) and Room for one colour (1997) – are from 2010/2011 and include numerous works especially created for the PinchukArtCentre.
New Deal mural entitled "Scenic and Historic Booneville" painted by Stefan Hirsch in 1943.
Hirsch originally planned to paint a mural with as much "public pride" as possible, including the cheese factory, the cold storage plant, MidSouth Uniform company and the Battle of Booneville. However, during his research, he realized that the "battle" may have not been much more than a dust up and he also could not confirm who won the "battle", but suspected it was the North. He instead ended up painting this mural but the title stuck.
The mural is still in it's original location but the post office building in now the Chancery Court Building.

The book is entitled 'Calling on Edna.' The title patch is made of red calf leather with gold lettering. Volume I is denoted by a single dot; Volume II has two.
The books were bound by a lady who works in one of Harvard College's libraries. She also does conservation work for their collections.
The full leather binding is a true binding. Most published books today are case 'bindings,' but nothing is really bound - it's mostly glued. Here the signatures are sewn to linen cords. Those cords are then woven into the boards that form the books covers. The text block is literally bound to the book cover. The bands seen on the spine are actual cords, rather than cardboard or leather inserts commonly seen on today's higher end books.

ORIGINAL ACEO entitled, "RORSCHACH'S LUNCH No.1" (2009) by award winning American artist/animator Dean A. Kendrick. The piece is a 3.5" x 2.5" ink marker drawing/watercolor painting on paper.
Noted Freudian psychiatrist Hermann Rorschach developed a psychological personality test in 1921 wherein a subject is invited to view a set of paper cards that had been blotted with ink and then explain what he/she envisions these curious shapes to be, thus determining the subject's personal traits and emotional functionality by comparing responses to a set of predetermined guidelines. This series of art works resembles a little known failed test of 1919 similar to the ink blot test, co-developed simultaneously by Dr. Rorschach and one of his dopplegangers during their collective, parallel universe lunch hour.
ACEO stands for "Art Cards, Editions and Originals". These popular, collectible cards are exclusively 2.5" x 3.5" in size.

These are the pieces from my first solo show, entitled “The Ghost of the You Haunted Me..." held at Rotofugi Gallery in Chicago, IL on Sept 7, 2012.
This body of work is the culmination of many of the elements found in my custom toy work within my Forest of Sorrows narrative and I have strived to create a cohesive storyline that ties together many of the concepts and themes seen over the past couple of years.
In this story, when people pass onto the next life, those with unfinished business are taken to the Silva Dolorosa (The Forest of Sorrows) to begin a life anew, where the choices and decisions they make will determine how their lives turn out.
At the end of days as one’s life ebbs away, the Flederkanichen creatures arrive to shepherd these souls, manifested as a seed, and carry them to the Silva Dolorosa. Upon arriving, they drop the soul seeds down into the depths of the forest where the Saplings catch them, plant them in their heads waiting for them to bloom again, at which point they will plant them on the forest floor in the perfect place, so that the souls can begin their new lives.
On one particular day, with one particular soul seed dropped by the Flederkanichen, a big gust of wind blew the seed out of the hand of the Sapling assigned to it and it hit the ground, breaking the cardinal rule of the forest. It was at this moment that Locket, the geist girl was reborn in this limbo, confused and bewildered as to where she was. Frightened, she runs deep into the forest to discover who she was in her previous life, and what she was to become in the next.
Concurrently, at the moment at which Locket was born, the last guardian of the forest, the Hollow Knight, was awakened from deep slumber, tasked with ensuring the sanctity of the Silva and all of its denizens. He sets off on a quest to find Locket, only to encounter yet another new visitor to the forest - the ferocious and monstrous Blackwülf, who seems to be racing the Hollow Knight in a quest to reach Locket first.
This is the story of death, understanding, rebirth and redemption. I hope that the pieces I have created for this show will help to give an insight into this story that I have been telling.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deadnettle
Lamium (deadnettle) is a genus of about 40-50 species of flowering plants in the family Lamiaceae, of which family it is the type genus. They are all herbaceous plants native to Europe, Asia, and north Africa, but several have become very successful weeds of crop fields and are now widely naturalised across the temperate world.
The genus includes both annual and perennial species; they spread by both seeds and stems rooting as they grow along the ground.
The common name refers to their superficial resemblance to the unrelated stinging nettles, but unlike those, they do not have stinging hairs and so are harmless or apparently "dead".
Lamiums are frost hardy and grow well in most soils. Flower colour determines planting season and light requirement: white- and purple-coloured flowered species are planted in spring and prefer full sun. The yellow-flowered ones are planted in fall (autumn) and prefer shade. They often have invasive habits and need plenty of room. Propagate from seed or by division in early spring

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Weigela is a small genus of about 12 species of deciduous shrubs in the family Caprifoliaceae, growing to 1-5 m tall. All are natives of eastern Asia.
The leaves are 5-15 cm long, ovate-oblong with an acuminate tip, and with a serrated margin. The flowers are 2-4 cm long, with a five-lobed white, pink, or red (rarely yellow) corolla, produced in small corymbs of several together in early summer. The fruit is a dry capsule containing numerous small winged seeds.
Weigela species are used as food plants by the larvae of some Lepidoptera species including Brown-tail.
The genus is named after the German scientist Christian Ehrenfried Weigel.
The British Weigela national collection is held at Sheffield Botanical Gardens; along with the national collection of the closely related Diervilla genus.[1] The german Weigela national collection is held at Sichtungsgarten Weigela in Buckow, Maerkische Schweiz [2]
Several of the species are very popular ornamental shrubs in gardens, although species have been mostly superseded by hybrids (crosses between W. florida and other Asiatic species).
Entitled the 'Out of Nothing' series, due to myself and my model wanting to do a collaborated project literally out of nothing, or for as free as we could possibly get it.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geranium
Geranium is a genus of 422 species of flowering annual, biennial, and perennial plants that are commonly known as the cranesbills. It is found throughout the temperate regions of the world and the mountains of the tropics, but mostly in the eastern part of the Mediterranean region. These attractive flowers will grow in any soil as long as it is not waterlogged. Propagation is by semi-ripe cuttings in summer, by seed or by division in autumn or spring.
The species Geranium viscosissimum is considered to be protocarnivorous.
The name "cranesbill" derives from the appearance of the seed-heads, which have the same shape as the bill of a crane. The genus name is derived from the Greek γέρανος, géranos, or γερανός, geranós, crane. The long, palmately cleft leaves are broadly circular in form. Their rose, pink to blue or white flowers have 5 petals.
Cranesbills are eaten by the larvae of some Lepidoptera species including Brown-tail and Mouse Moth.
Confusingly, "geranium" is also the common name of members of the genus Pelargonium, which were formerly classified in the cranesbill genus. In the United States, true Geraniums are frequently distinguished from the less hardy Pelargoniums as (rather redundantly) "hardy geraniums" by gardeners and in the horticultural trade. One can make the distinction between the two by looking at the flowers: Geranium has symmetrical flowers, while Pelargonium has irregular or maculate petals. Other former members of the genus are now classified in genus Erodium, including the plants known as filarees in North America.
