August 21, 2015 is the day I lost my sanity and sense of self. Ever since, I haven’t been able to really truly look at myself the same. I’ve been hiding behind anything and everything I can. I’ve tried escaping, running, and numbing my senses. I’ve been in denial. I’ve shut people out. I’ve tried to blame someone or something for my misfortune. Ultimately I’ve lost touch with who and what I am. I’ve pulled the curtains of my life shut and have tried to avoid the spotlight after the most traumatic events of my entire life, and that’s saying something from all the trauma I have in my past…
I have so much shame associated with my illness and with what it can turn me into. I have so much contempt for the assumptions people and the public make in their minds without any understanding or education about my illness. Mostly though, I am frustrated that there isn’t more information accessible about my illness and what it’s like to live through it and with it successfully. There is such a stigma around bipolar that I get knots in my stomach even writing this sentence. Those who are close to me already know but many of them don’t really know how to talk about it without seeming completely uncomfortable. It’s a sympathetic fearful look. It’s a way in their voice and demeanor. I see myself differently through their eyes now even though I know they still love me. I hope it will change again as I get more months of stability and regularity under my belt. Maybe it’s just my inability to feel self-worth after seeing myself as so defective but many people have a hard time consoling or even putting up with someone who is suicidal or severely depressed and it’s pretty difficult to keep up with someone who is manic and it’s almost impossible to deal with something as severe as a psychotic break which I was blessed enough to deal with in September of 2015 after being poorly treated in the first hospital I stayed in. Not only did they not really do much to help me stabilize or help me understand what was going on with me they didn’t help with after care and because or all of it I slipped through the cracks and was allowed to go off my meds by a doctor who after listening to my story told me “don’t do anything to jeopardize your boyfriend’s career.” I was still in so much denial that I refused to take medication and they did nothing. This lead to 2 more extended hospital stays, a 3 week long partial hospitalization program, and multiple different trials and errors with medication regimens.
I am finally stable enough to work again after months of not being able to work. I’ve been forced to take time off from school because of my inability to concentrate and retain information. This has been so hard because school is my livelihood and losing that makes me feel like a failure because many of my peers are graduating and I was already behind and now I am more behind. I know I will get there eventually and that there isn’t a timeline on things but this is realistically what I think about. I feel like I am behind and inadequate. This is what it’s like to live with a mental illness. It can break you apart and leave you with nothing… I haven’t even picked up my camera in months because I can’t look at myself. I’ve gained almost 30 pounds since all of this started. I have such a low self esteem and body image issues now too.
I am finally at a point in my life where I am taking inventory from a somewhat level standpoint and I just genuinely feel as though I still have so much work to do. I am grateful for my family and friends who have stuck through it with me but I am a bit saddened because this whole struggle to them, at least from my standpoint, seems like it’s over and long ago but for me I am in the baby stages. I still relive it all the time. I can't get away from it. I am relearning how to live. I suffered from a serious trauma.
I've learned I need to eat better or I can get off balance. I can’t just stay up late because of an assignment or to go out with friends. I need a consistent sleep schedule or I can get sick. I should be exercising to keep things balanced and to get me out of bed or off the couch. I shouldn’t drink alcohol or caffeine because one is an upper and the other is a downer. I should be in a pretty routine schedule to make sure I am not allowing myself to stew but I shouldn’t over extend myself because that could lead to burnout and could indicate impulsivity and mania.
OH and that reminds me… I still have no idea what my triggers and red flags/indications are. I know all-nighters can make me fall into mania but they can also be an indication that I am starting to get manic. When I start sleeping 14 hours a day and don’t leave the bed is definitely when I am depressed. Isolation = Depression. Inability to stop talking above and beyond my social nature = mania.
The scary and crappy part about bipolar (manic depressive illness) and mental illness in general is that it’s cyclical, meaning that something can be a trigger or an indicator and I am stuck at a point in my illness that I am almost constantly in fear of something leading me back to instability. I don't know if something is a sign of me getting back to a good point of happy and healthy or if I am too far in the other direction.
To top off everything, I also suffer from anxiety and there’s a good chance I have PTSD. I haven’t worked with someone close enough or long enough to figure out all of my problems. The hard part of everything I’ve been through is that it’s hard to make progress when you are dealing with crisis and need to be stabilized instead of stability looking to get to a healthy and happy place. It’s really easy to believe you don’t need help and to just keep living your life until you absolutely need help which is where I’ve been most of my life with mental health care.
I’m finally to a point of acceptance with needing medication that I’ll probably have to take the rest of my life to be stable. I am in the process of making life changes to keep stable. I am also in the process of getting into a normal mental health regimen but this is after walking through some fire and ice storms. For a while when I was manic I felt the need to write down EVERY single thing and thought. I wanted to document everything even if it was insignificant. Eventually I will post a few photos of some of the pages of the multiple books I filled front and back pages of in tiny writing in just a few days but just know it’s impossible for me to even fathom how it happened and I am the one who did it. It’s mostly nonsense and I don’t remember what most of it even means now. I suffered from something called a thought disorder, which meant my words literally didn’t even make sense as I would write or say them even though to me, because of my mania, they felt as though I was speaking prophecy. After my mania passed, I fell into a suicidal depression that made me fearful for my own life and fearful if I was even in control of myself enough to stop myself from ending my life (which lead me to move back home for a few months and then, feeling as though I was normal, even though I had seen no one and was clearly still depressed, I moved back to attend school- away from everyone who was trying to help take care of me… not the best decision but not the worst either because it lead me to where I am now and allowed me to be in the partial hospitalization program).
Due to my debilitating depression I was not able to concentrate long enough to read even a sentence and writing one was not about to happen… (To be fair, I had probably written enough for a lifetime during my mania). This was all really unfortunate for me and my attendance and GPA for class. I was sleeping around 14 hours a day, eating one meal, and watching episodes of Netflix most of the night because I couldn’t sleep… repeat cycle. I basically stopped going to class after the first week and when the first round of tests came I almost ended my life due to the stress and then I ended up in the hospital. The partial program was a god send because it got me out of bed and out of the house and gave me a place to be and people to talk to every day of the week for 3 weeks. It helped me realize just how sick I actually was. It helped me realize how important a schedule is and how important meals are! It also lead me to leave school and move back to Chicago and even to write this as open and honestly as I am.
Honestly, I don’t really know what I hope to gain by sharing this… I just am so used to using my photography and my words to express myself and I haven’t had that because of my illness and that has hurt me the most. I am finally getting back to a point where I am able to function. People have told me how much more like myself I am and it feels nice because I know I have made so much progress… but I am still so far from where I want to be and I am so impatient. Healing takes so much effort and even more patience and mostly it just needs time. It feels like I’ve been carrying an elephant around with me that I haven’t been able to really let go of. On some of my worst days, I have even missed my mania because I’ve been in the depths of this depression for so long but I know it can be so dangerous so I stick to just working towards stability and health.
The elephant is lighter than it used to be but it’s definitely still around. I still have shame and guilt about what happened. I still haven’t been able to go back through my over 100 incomprehensible facebook posts from the worst days of my mania and my psychotic break. I still fear that I will get back to a place where I am out of control and I will hurt those I love again. However, something I haven’t had in a long time is hope. I have a lot of hope because I see a future again. I am starting to enjoy things again. I am able to go to work and deal with people and my fellow coworkers. I want to talk to people again and do things outside of the house. I am, for the most part, on a normal sleep schedule. I live in a place I love with the love of my life.
The plans I had for myself changed and that’s been part of the hardest thing to accept. I don’t like change even though I love being spontaneous. I would say I probably have some control issues and not being able to control my life the past year has made me scared, confused, and uncertain in many areas. I feel like I am starting over. I have picked up some things about myself I don’t like that I am trying to change and I’ve found new things I never knew I could do. I’ve become hyper aware of myself and I’ve also become a bit hypercritical. I’ve gained new ideas and new coping skills because of everything. I’ve been blessed and cursed just like Kay Redfield Jamison said in the first book I was able to read that I just finished a few weeks ago. I received it from someone very important to me when I was still in a lot of denial and then was reminded of it later in life when I was finally able to get through it and connect its relevance to me. The book is called “An Unquiet Mind” and it’s about a psychiatrist that talks about what bipolar has been like for her. There’s a quote from it that really meant a lot to me.
“Beneath those stars is a universe of gliding monsters.”
Some days I will be among the stars, others I will be with the monsters... but sometimes I will be able to stand in the middle and say I've seen them both and survived. I've been given the chance to learn from both.
I guess the thing I’ve learned most lately is that moderation and balance is what is most important and to not be so hard on myself… Through this entire process I’ve had a hard time even admitting to myself that this is something I have to deal with and will continue to have to deal with let alone talking openly about it but I’ve always been open and honest about my depression and anxiety. This has just been so difficult because it holds a lot more weight in my mind and in the public’s eye and it’s capable of more things than just unipolar depression. I guess I just needed to get this off my chest because I’ve felt like a prisoner to my illness.
I am Taylor Nelson.
I have bipolar.
I am stable and I love myself even though some days are a lot harder than others to be and do so.
I guess that’s all for now.

SINGAPORE - The Republic of Singapore Air Force (RSAF) has started taking delivery of the improved H225M medium-lift helicopters in Singapore, meant to progressively replace the Super Puma workhorses that have been in service since 1983.
In a Facebook post on Monday (March 29), the RSAF said it will be conducting flight tests and training on the H225M helicopters, which are manufactured by European planemaker Airbus.
"When operationalised, the H225M helicopters will take over the roles of the Super Pumas," the RSAF added.
A Mindef spokesman told The Straits Times earlier this month in response to queries that the RSAF will start taking delivery of three helicopters in the coming months.
The H225M has about 20 per cent longer range capability than the AS332M Super Pumas, and will complement the CH-47 helicopters to meet the Singapore Armed Forces' lift requirements for a wide spectrum of operations, said the RSAF.
This includes aeromedical evacuations, search and rescue, humanitarian assistance and disaster relief and maritime security operations.
In a statement on Monday, Airbus Helicopters chief executive Bruno Even said the delivery was "exceptionally significant", as Airbus and the RSAF overcame the Covid-19 pandemic challenges last year to achieve a smooth handover of the helicopter.
Mindef said in June last year that its delivery would be from early 2021 onwards instead of the previously projected end-2020 due to supply chain disruptions arising from the pandemic.
Mr Even added: "The RSAF has been a long-term partner of Airbus since its first Aerospatiale SA316B Alouette III entered into service more than 50 years ago.
"We appreciate the trust Singapore has placed in our helicopters, and we look forward to the H225Ms playing a critical role in the RSAF for many years to come."
Airbus said that 104 H225Ms are currently in service across the world, having accumulated more than 143,000 flight hours. The helicopter completed its first flight in November 2000.
It is used by countries such as Brazil, France, Indonesia, Malaysia, Mexico, Thailand and Kuwait, Airbus added.
In November 2016, Mindef announced that it had awarded a contract to Airbus Helicopters for the acquisition of the H225M, adding that the replacement aircraft were selected after a rigorous evaluation process.
The RSAF's Super Pumas have been used to transport Special Operations Task Force troopers for troop insertion, and as an overhead escort to protect cargo on board merchant vessels, in addition to search-and-rescue missions and evacuations.
They were also used to fly the state flag at the National Day Parade (NDP). They last flew the state flag at the 2000 NDP, with the CH-47D Chinook taking over the following year.

If I find the scanned slide, it needs to be reversed!
Done!!
see C:\Users\Bill Crowle\Pictures\Other Pictures\Slides\Hunt mouldy slides
Cleaning the slide (described below), removed the mould on the emulsion slide but wiping while damp left more fluff lying it the direction of the last swipe!
I tried some Kirkland flushable baby wipes of organic natural solution!
Most if not all the mould was on the soft emulsion side, so you have to wipe softly and quickly before the emulsion softens. If you then wipe with a lint-free cloth to remove all the wet wipe fibres stuck in the emulsion you can feel the cloth drag on the soft emulsion.
Let the slide dry and harden for a few minutes then hold the slide at a flat angle to a bright light and you can see the lint stuck to the emulsion and the non-emulsion side. The emulsion side of a Kodachrome slide is the side with the Kodak label.
You can then use the lint-free cloth to wipe or flip the fluff and fibres off.
You can see the fires change direction as you wipe. This can be done firmly and several times on the viewing side but be gentle on the other side, the emulsion side.
Before scanning, I use a soft makeup brush to remove any remaining dust and fibres, especially from an old Kodak cardboard mount.

Those of us who have been travelling a lot before the time of digital cameras may have a huge collection of mouldy slides 10-20 years old. Some websites advise using alcohol to wipe off the mould. I have a better way. The wetting agent in these wipes provides just the right amount of lubrication to clean off the mould in slides without scratching the film too much.

This is terrible advice for one reason. People will go out and buy alcohol. It will contain water. They'll forget about the 99.9 pure grade and just remember some video on the internet said to use alcohol and buy the cheaper 91% or 71% and not even notice even if they intended on buying the right stuff. Or even having the 99% pure they'll grab the wrong bottle on the shelf and use that by mistake. Believe me. I worked supporting a technical product and you wouldn't believe the stupid careless things people did. If all they sold was 99.9% pure alcohol then sure. Most places don't even stock 99.9% stuff. People will pick up whatever is available and call it a day. I absolutely, positively, guarantee this. No. Bad. Buy regular film cleaner. It isn't that expensive. Follow the directions. People cleaning 70 or 80 year old film likely know what they are doing or will research the film and use the right stuff as recommended by the manufacturer. Seasoned photographers will not watch this video because they already know how to clean film. This video will only attract new people who might not even have ever used film who want to scan something but not really know what they are doing. There are certain types of film that will be ruined using any type of cleaner. They will not know this. (Polachrome is one)

(BY ROGER STONE) The fate of legalized medicinal marijuana in the United States was in a precarious place last week. Even though every appropriation passed by the House in Congress since 2014 included an amendment that explicitly denied the Department of Justice funding for a crackdown on marijuana in the states where it has been legalized. This amendment has broad bipartisan support in both houses of Congress, essentially a coalition of Liberal Democrats and Libertarians in freedom Caucus minded Republicans.
Suddenly after intense lobbying by Atty. Gen. Jeff Sessions, the House rules committee said they would not allow the amendment to be attached to the current appropriations. Recall that Sessions had actually formally written a letter to Congress asking them to vacate the previously passed amendment by not attaching the rider.
Fortunately, with the support of President Trump and Senator Schumer, the amendment was attached to the emergency appropriation for Hurricane Harvey. I was in Washington, embedded on Capitol Hill, making calls and meeting with pro marijuana confederates. This has the effect of protecting millions of Americans legal access to cannabis for medicinal purposes at least until December.
Sessions’ aggressiveness and his obvious plan to reignite the field war on drugs which has already cost taxpayers billions, destroyed families and lives and had no impact whatsoever on the level of illegal drug activity in the United States. It is clear this is in direct contradiction to the position of candidate and President Donald J Trump who very clearly said he supported state’s rights when it came to the question of legalizing marijuana particularly for medicinal purposes.
Recently I launched a bipartisan effort – the United States Cannabis Coalition -to persuade President Donald Trump to honor this pledge made during the presidential campaign to respect the states’ rights to legalize marijuana. We want the President to order Attorney General Jeff Sessions to continue to honor the ‘Holder Memo” which ordered the feds to stand down on enforcement in the States where cannabis has been legalized under President Obama.
I am not a newcomer to this cause. I have written, spoken, marched and rallied for drug law reform for 20 years. I spoke at a “Countdown to Justice” rally along with Russell Simmons and Rev. Al Sharpton demanding reform of New York’s draconian Rockefeller drug laws, among the most racist in the nation. I actively wrote and spoke for reforms to the New York law in 2006 and 2008. I am also a witness in a new lawsuit filed against the Federal government to overturn the feds classification of cannabis as a Schedule 1 drug.
Partnering with me in this important endeavor is Orlando trial attorney and major Clinton donor and fundraiser John Morgan, Fox News analyst Andrew Napolitano, Congressman Matt Gaetz and HBO’s Bill Maher among others.
I spoke to the Cannabis Business Expo in New York City in June, and the bipartisan approach I outlined including an effort to take Cannabis off the Schedule 1 drug classification so doctors can prescribe it to people who might benefit, was well received. I was scheduled to speak before the LA- based Cannabis Business Expo on Sept 14.
Shortly thereafter, a small group of dissidents announced a boycott and began pressuring the Expo organizers to cancel my scheduled speech. The basis of their objection are things I have tweeted that they deemed to be racist- but it is vital to know that everything they cite is based on documentation from Media Matters for America. My twitter feed is lively and not for the faint of heart. I comment on many matters. This bogus claim I am a racist, anti-Semite or misogynist is based on old tweets that are either taken out of context, twisted or in some cases simply fabricated. I most certainly never referred to myself as a ‘N*gga with a Nixon Tattoo.”
Even though this attack on me was both orchestrated and based on a false narrative of who I am in what my motives are I was deeply disappointed in the organizers of the expo who canceled my speech, stampeded by a small but well-organized group of loudmouths more interested in scoring political points than in the future of continued legal access to cannabis.
Taking credit for abridging my First Amendment rights is something called The Minority Cannabis Business Association headed by a woman who calls herself “Mo Money” or something. In her Facebook posts Ms. Money betrays her stunning ignorance.
They objected to my speaking due to my “deplorable racist, misogynistic and anti- Semitic rhetoric while many of the alleged quotes that offend them are simply fabricated things I never said. I did actually issue a public apology to Herman Cain, Ben Carson, Alan West and Roland Martin for using the word “negro” in an attempt to be sarcastic. Criticism of individual women does not make one a misogynist nor does criticism of an individual Jewish person make you an anti-Semite. This is simply recycled David Brock Bull shit.
Ironically Ms. Money says she conferred with the Rev. Al Sharpton who is being paid $25,000 to speak at the same World Cannabis Business Expo in Los Angeles while I was speaking pro bono. Perhaps Ms. Monty is unaware of long-standing charges of anti-Semitism against Rev. Sharpton based on things he has said that could be construed as viciously anti-Semitic. Rev. Sharpton has apologized and atoned for many of these utterances and I for one have a forgiven him. Others say that he should be prevented from speaking at the Los Angeles Expo. Does Ms. Money see the hypocrisy of her attack on me while turning a blind eye to Sharpton’s rhetorical excesses?
The Minority Cannabis Business Association said that I “should be prevented from speaking because of my uplifting of some of the worst drug warriors in our country to prominence and Presidency, such as Nixon, Reagan and Trump. Is she kidding? When it comes to the failed, expensive and racist war on drugs, both political parties are complicit and there’s plenty of blame to go around.
Just in terms of raw numbers of those prosecuted under our archaic Federal drug laws, Obama and Clinton make Reagan and Nixon look like pikers. Let’s not forget that it was Bill and Hillary Clinton who brought us the 1994 crime bill, among the most racist tools of the war on drugs. A close examination of Vice President Joe Biden’s record will show that he is perhaps the greatest drug warrior of all time. Hillary’s vice-presidential candidate, Tim Kaine is also a total prohibitionist. Like I say, there’s plenty of blame to go around when it comes to the nation’s current drug law fiasco.
Despite all of this I am prepared to work with any Democrat, liberal, or socialist who supports legalized cannabis and wants to avert the reigniting of the war on drugs under President Donald Trump.
Not content to malign me, Ms. Money of the Minority Cannabis Business Association goes on to attack the co-chairman of United States Cannabis Coalition Orlando , John Morgan. Morgan selflessly financed and provided the strategy for an effort that was ultimately successful to legalize marijuana for medicinal purposes in the state of Florida. Morgan is also a prominent trial attorney, Democratic fundraiser and potential Democratic candidate for Governor in 2018.
Ms. Money of the Minority Cannabis association actually said Morgan’s Amendment 2 “was one of the most restrictive cannabis legalization laws for small business growth and minority entrepreneurship in the country.”
Does Ms. Money not realize is that while Morgan successfully passed a Constitutional amendment that mandated the legalization of marijuana he is not responsible for the legislation which the legislature must pass to enact the will of people. Ms. Money accused me of lobbying for this law when all I did was vote for it like millions of other Floridians. Clearly Ms. Money and her no doubt massive association have no idea what they are talking about.
In fact, Morgan is in court right now trying to overturn a portion of the law which actually says the patient using marijuana legally may not smoke it. John Morgan is a hero who will make not a penny from the legalized marijuana business. He is willing to reach across the aisle and work with anyone who agrees with him on the issue of legal public access to marijuana.
I will not be silenced by a small group of people who have accomplished nothing in the current struggle to preserve the states’ rights to legalize marijuana. I have the ear of the President. Do they?
For those who are looking forward to my speech in Los Angeles on September 14, fear not. I will be speaking at noon at the Alchemy Lounge at 603 W. Pico Blvd, only steps from the Cannabis World Business Exposition in Los Angeles. See you there.

We attended The Rock Church. Pastor Glen was not there. He was in the hospital in Tallahassee.
FaceBook post from him: "Late yesterday evening I developed severe headaches and was rushed to the hospital where they found I had a bleed on my brain. Air lifted me to Tallahassee where further CT showed no continued bleeding and good arterial blood flow to all areas. PTL! They are doing a procedure this morning to confirm and try to find the source of the original bleed and to repair it. Likely an extended stay because I have to me monitored closely for several days. Prayers needs are: for Jerolyn and the girls, no more bleeding, and that my body will absorb residual blood without complications. #Godknows #Godisfaithful"
We invited Karen & Greg and Carolyn & Benny to lunch at VCC. Later Jim and I took a nap in our recliners.
Thoughts on Turkey.
I flew in to Ataturk International Airport, arriving at 11:30pm on May 20. I slept in the airport which was surprisingly not as bad as I thought.
Turkey. How the hell did I get to Turkey? I really have no idea what I was doing here. Istanbul sounded like a cool place… Honestly, I didn’t really put much thought into going to Turkey, I kinda just showed up. But as luck would have it, my friend from Syracuse, Beatrice, is finishing up her semester abroad there right now. She met me as I got off the bus from the airport and took me out to an authentic local breakfast place.
Turkey is a little behind the times. As we sat there eating some weird goat cheese thing (that’s the technical term), an overbearing loudspeaker came on. And not a loudspeaker in the restaurant. A loudspeaker over the whole city. A man speaking in Arabic calling for prayer. I look out the window and see men rushing and running to the nearby mosque to wash their feet in a foot-sink thingy (also a technical term) and then inside the mosque to pray. Now apparently this happens multiple times a day.
It was very weird. We happen to walk by a different mosque later that day and decide to peak inside. We were in there looking around, Beatrice in her fancy headscarf, provided by the front door man, and we’re both barefoot. Of course this would be the time when the loudspeaker comes on, calling for prayer. The men start flooding in, some in sweat pants, others in fancy suits, to pray. We stayed to watch for a little while (technically we were allowed to be there) but left shortly thereafter.
On a positive note though, the world is flat, thanks to the Internet. I posted on Facebook that I was going to be in Istanbul and a friend from high school messaged me saying she had an alumni event in Istanbul at the same time. I found myself on a fancy dinner cruise on the Bosphorus River hanging out with an old high school friend and some really cool people.
Basic networking, fast forward to the end of the night, I made a new photographer friend who lives in a Switzerland, and offered to let me crash at her place when I go to Switzerland later this summer. Boom. One Facebook post. Now that’s cool.

Facebook post by the Scottish Ambulance Service, Communications Team. Posted 22nd February 2024 (22/02/24).
A couple of weeks ago I made up a simple diorama depicting a fictional Ambulance Station somewhere in Scotland. Having been both an Emergency Call Handler within Ambulance Control Centre (ACC) and an Ambulance Technician, crewing A&E units, I reached out to my former colleagues and shared my photoshoot. Today they shared the pictures on their social media channels. I am very happy and grateful to them for sharing my hobby.
You can find the individual pictures by scrolling back through my feed, or by looking in my SAS album.
Benjamin Netanyahu has just been elected to his third term as Prime Minister of Israel. Many Jerusalem Prayer Team members have asked me questions about the PM and the Israeli electoral system. I will attempt to answer those questions in this Facebook post.
1. Would you tell us about Benjamin Netanyahu?
I’ve known Benjamin Netanyahu since he was thirty years of age (see photo below). He is now sixty-four. When I first met him on July 4, 1980, he was selling furniture. It was the third anniversary of the death of his brother, Yoni. (Yoni was serving as a commander in the Israeli Defense Forces when he was killed during Operation Entebbe in Uganda, during a counter-terrorism hostage rescue mission. His unit had flown there to rescue more than one hundred Israeli hostages who had been hijacked by terrorists).
I had gone to the home of Benzion Netanyahu, Yoni’s father, to express my deep condolences on the anniversary of his son’s death. He was very gracious and invited me in for a cup of tea. A few moments later, Benjamin walked into the room. I could see the pain and depression in his eyes.
Before leaving, I asked him if I could pray with him. He said yes. I took his hands in mine and as we prayed, tears ran down my face. The words that came forth from my mouth were prophetic: “Jonthan loved David. You loved Jonathan. Out of the ashes of your despair will come strength from God, and you will be the prime minister of Israel."
I had a small bottle of oil that I had purchased at the Garden Tomb. As I ended my prayer, I removed the cap and touched his head with the oil. He was completely surprised and said, “No. I’m not going into politics.”
The following day, I requested a second meeting that week with Prime Minister Menachem Begin. During our meeting, I told him what had happened when I met with the Netanyahu family. I asked him to give Benjamin a position in his government. He did not know who Benjamin was, but his senior advisor, Reuven Hecht informed him by reminding the prime minister of Benjamin Netanyahu’s father and brother.
Menachem Begin was such a God-fearing man that he took my words very seriously. He told Reuven to have dinner with Benjamin. Reuven complied and Benjamin was offered his first position as Deputy Chief of Missions at the Israeli Embassy in Washington, DC, under Ambassador Moshe Aron. He held that position from 1982-1984.
From 1984-1988, he served as the Israeli ambassador to the United Nations. He went on to become a Knesset member in Israel and was a member of the Israeli delegation under Prime Minister Yitzhak Shamir at the Madrid Peace Conference. I remember it well as I was in attendance for the conference defending Israel—one of only sixty in the world outside the delegations permitted to attend.
In 1996, Benjamin became prime minister of Israel, and in 2009 was elected for a second time to serve in that capacity. On January 22, 2013, he became prime minister for a third time.
2. Is the Israeli political system different from that in the United States?
Yes. Israel has an electoral system based on nation-wide proportional representation, and the number of seats which every list receives in the Knesset is proportional to the number of those who voted for it. The only limitation is the 2% qualifying threshold. In other words, a party must receive at least 2% of the votes in order to be elected. According to this system, votes are cast for the various parties on the list, and not for a particular person.
Since the institution of the primaries system in some of the parties, these parties directly elect their candidates for the Knesset. Some of the parties elect their candidates via the party's institutions. In the ultra-religious parties their spiritual leaders appoint the candidates.
The Knesset elections take place once every four years, but the Knesset or the Prime Minister can decide to hold early elections, and under certain circumstances can serve for more than four years.
There are 120 Knesset members. In order to become prime minister, one must have 62 of the 120 member votes. The Likud Party of which Benjamin Netanyahu is a member has joined forces with the Hisrael Beiteinu Party led by Foreign Minister Avidgor Lieberman. The two parties would have enough seats to form a new government. Some of the other parties are: Kidema (21 seats), Labour (8 seats), Shas, the Orthodox party, (11 seats), Bayit Yehudi Party, which is in the far right also has about 12 seats; and lesser groups—Hatnuah (7 seats), New Movement (3 seats), and others.
If you think US elections are frustrating, there is nothing more so than Israeli elections. There are not simply two parties vying for the top spot; there are more than a dozen.
In essence, the general election is not about voting for an individual, but rather voting for the party. If the prime minister leads that party, then Israel’s president (more an honorary and diplomatic position) can authorize that individual to attempt to form a government. The president is not involved in the legislative procedures of the nation of Israel.

This is what a friend on facebook posted this morning:
"Steve Jobs, visionary and genius died last night. If heaven hasn't already made the switch from PC to Mac, it will do soon! Here's what he recently said about life/death: "Remembering that I'll be dead soon is the most important tool I've ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. Because almost everything -- all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure - these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart. ... Stay hungry. Stay foolish." Amen to that Steve! :) Thoughts and prayers for his family and friends."

SINGAPORE - The Republic of Singapore Air Force (RSAF) has started taking delivery of the improved H225M medium-lift helicopters in Singapore, meant to progressively replace the Super Puma workhorses that have been in service since 1983.
In a Facebook post on Monday (March 29), the RSAF said it will be conducting flight tests and training on the H225M helicopters, which are manufactured by European planemaker Airbus.
"When operationalised, the H225M helicopters will take over the roles of the Super Pumas," the RSAF added.
A Mindef spokesman told The Straits Times earlier this month in response to queries that the RSAF will start taking delivery of three helicopters in the coming months.
The H225M has about 20 per cent longer range capability than the AS332M Super Pumas, and will complement the CH-47 helicopters to meet the Singapore Armed Forces' lift requirements for a wide spectrum of operations, said the RSAF.
This includes aeromedical evacuations, search and rescue, humanitarian assistance and disaster relief and maritime security operations.
In a statement on Monday, Airbus Helicopters chief executive Bruno Even said the delivery was "exceptionally significant", as Airbus and the RSAF overcame the Covid-19 pandemic challenges last year to achieve a smooth handover of the helicopter.
Mindef said in June last year that its delivery would be from early 2021 onwards instead of the previously projected end-2020 due to supply chain disruptions arising from the pandemic.
Mr Even added: "The RSAF has been a long-term partner of Airbus since its first Aerospatiale SA316B Alouette III entered into service more than 50 years ago.
"We appreciate the trust Singapore has placed in our helicopters, and we look forward to the H225Ms playing a critical role in the RSAF for many years to come."
Airbus said that 104 H225Ms are currently in service across the world, having accumulated more than 143,000 flight hours. The helicopter completed its first flight in November 2000.
It is used by countries such as Brazil, France, Indonesia, Malaysia, Mexico, Thailand and Kuwait, Airbus added.
In November 2016, Mindef announced that it had awarded a contract to Airbus Helicopters for the acquisition of the H225M, adding that the replacement aircraft were selected after a rigorous evaluation process.
The RSAF's Super Pumas have been used to transport Special Operations Task Force troopers for troop insertion, and as an overhead escort to protect cargo on board merchant vessels, in addition to search-and-rescue missions and evacuations.
They were also used to fly the state flag at the National Day Parade (NDP). They last flew the state flag at the 2000 NDP, with the CH-47D Chinook taking over the following year.
I know this might be a bit graphic and controversial for some but I think this is an excellent illustration explaining what is means to declaw your cat. Many people think it's just a minor surgery and don't realize it's actually an amputation.
Note: I found this diagram on facebook posted by Archibald The Psychotic Housecats Den of Insanity.
According to my charts, the S.H. Figuarts Wonder Woman 84 figure should be released soon, so I suppose it's an opportune time for me to back pedal and fill in a gap or two in the collection.
Back in the Winter (man does it feel like forever), I purchased the Mafex Justice League Wonder Woman figure, after being thoroughly disappointed with the Mezco release and not having found the first Figuarts release at a sane price (that came a few months later).
While the Mafex JL WW was not as articulated in body as the Figuarts was, the Mafex body was generally functional (lightyears better than the Mezco one) and had a much nicer head sculpt. Between the two, I gave the slight win to the Mafex.
The WW 84 Figuarts release, based on photos, is well positioned to resolve the face issue, but I foresee some issues that unless I'm mistaken, they didn't resolve from the first release. But the harping on that figure will happen in due time.
A few nights ago, I stumbled upon a Facebook post selling the one Mafex Wonder Woman I did miss/pass, the solo movie version. It wasn't complete, missing the uncoiled Lasso of Truth, but for $30 CAD, I wasn't too fussy.
I had done my homework already so I knew what to expect. The solo version has the same body as the JL version, so articulation was going to be identical. The solo figure would come with the Godslayer Sword and.. whatever they called her shield, rather than the BvS or JL version (which strangely changed anyway). She'd have both coiled and uncoiled Lasso of Truths, but solo would lack the Motherbox. The Bandolier, like the JL version, wraps up to her right shoulder, and features a spot to hold her sword.
Like the jump from solo to JL, the jump to solo from BvS was pretty significant from a finish perspective. The solo figure featured some brighter colours compared to the JL version, which looking at it now, seems to be the case for the WW 84 movie. The Bracers of Submission, along with her armlet, feature some light gold highlights
Mafex hadn't quite figured out what a healthy human being looked like yet, so the solo figure complexion was still somewhat on the yellow side. It does appear that Mezco was aware of what a human face looked like, however. The improvements over the BvS version were quite noticeable, even if it was simply the BvS sculpts actually being painted properly - the neutral face on the JL version appears to be a reworked solo face, but the angry head is definitely all new.
Overall, I can't say I was disappointed with this figure, given the price and background knowledge. I purposely skipped getting this figure at full retail as the improvements really didn't tickle my fancy until the JL version. While having it in hand does show me the improvements were quite significant compared to BvS, there is nothing in the solo version that would possible cause me to dethrone the JL figure.
As of this writing, there has strangely been no Mafex solicitation for the WW 84 movie, which is a shame because they were definitely moving in the right direction with the JL release. Maybe Bandai was the only player this time around, which is great cause I'd love a Figuarts Golden Armour to go with my McFarlane.
On the other hand, who knows - 2020 has been a messed up year, and we're only halfway there. I guess ultimately, only time will tell.

Validating Product Ideas Through Lean User Research, Sharon, Tomer, 2016. New York: Rosenfeld Media rosenfeldmedia.com/books/lean-user-research/
My facebook post read "It's gonna be an EPIC sunset tonight!!"... as I raced down to the beach after work on Friday night with my gear ;-) I was right!!! my camera didn't know what to do with all the color!! It certainly was EPIC and one of the most magical I have ever seen. I hope you'all are having a good weekend and out having lots of fun and taking lots of photos this summer! I know I have....! Looking forward to slowing down a little and hoping to be afforded time to catch up with all your holidays/ vacations/ posts!!
Thanks as always, for your Flickr LOVE!!!
From Jill's FaceBook post..
My Dad sent me this photo yesterday and it threw me back to about 1995. A testament to the fact he always had a camera on him, loaded with a roll of film, ready to take that photo that we never noticed him taking, but which captured a huge moment or memory. This was me, broken down on the highway between Sydney and Canberra. This was my first car, I saved my money working at a backpackers hotel in Cairns, QLD. I bought it from an English backpacker and proudly drove it back home all by myself (I was nearly 20) sadly she died about an hour or so north of Canberra and my Dad and my brother towed me the last stretch home.
A reply from Mum.. After you were towed home, your ability to deal with the vagaries of this vehicle blew us away!! The car would come to a grinding halt, and you would lift the bonnet and dive into the engine, and next thing we would be on our way again! xxXxx
"Call Me: "The Camera Man""
If you saw my Facebook post for April Fools ("I think Im gonna quit my 365 day project....") then you might have thought "why would someone that loves his photography, give up when they are only 55 days from success." Well have no fear, I am continuing. I used my 30D with my 50mm f/1.8. I shot at ISO 400 f/6.3 at 1/100 shutter speed with a Yongnuo Flash Speedlite Yn-460ii with an umbrella and a Yongnuo Flash Speedlite Yn-467 with an umbrella both triggered by Yongnuo RF-603 Wireless Flash Triggers.
Flashes on camera right and left, in front of camera out of the shot.
This is what we are doing. I discovered this novel term on request by a friend blogger... [read my facebook post] who immediately afterwards posted an explanatory and very flattering article about our work on the mountain that day: «OASIFICATION! 🌳 🌳 🌳»
An unprocessed low-res version of this photo was included in a gallery of 56 pictures inside the article, every one followed by a very pungeant note about the poor state of Ikaria's mountain environment.

John Ayers: Monday ain?t all bad
John W. Ayers, PhD, MA, is a social scientist and epidemiologist whose work is dedicated to the modernization of public health research methods.
John is a leading expert on the ?big data? revolution in public health, particularly for the study of non communicable diseases and health be haviors. His 2011 tracking of electronic cigarette Internet search queries was the first application of such data towards preventive medicine and was the American Journal of Preventive Medicine?s most cited research article that year?rightly predicting the rising popularity of electronic cigarettes. He harnesses search queries, Facebook posts, news media, and tweets to uncover how cycles in public health and disease are shaped by the physical and social environment. His work has been featured nationally by the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, and Wired, with international coverage in more than a dozen languages.

A Facebook post* showed this same plant blooming with many flowers. That lasts about 3 weeks, and unfortunately the 'dated' photo of this exact plant had been taken perhaps 3 weeks earlier; when I arrived, only about 7 blooms remained. But it was not a disappointment, because I learned something completely new to me... and this place has so much more to see... as the rest of the photos show.
This is a 'Turquoise Puya' * , a terrestrial Bromeliad from the Andes mountains of Chile. It forms a rosette of silvery-green leaves about 3-4 feet tall and wide. Over the years, it forms a large colony of pups. The leaves are spiny, so move carefully around them. The "turquoise tower" produces a six-foot flower spike from a three- to four-foot rosette of spiked strappy leaves. The inflorescence can take over several weeks to complete its spectacular bloom. The true turquoise flowers have bright orange anthers which stand out in striking contrast. They are monocarpic and will not flower again. It can take a few years for its pups to produce their own spikes.
Puya alpestris, Sapphire Tower, giant bromeliad.
* Facebook photos show the date posted, not taken; if you know if there's a way to find "when" a FB photo was "taken", please let me know!
I finally found someone on Facebook nasty enough to chase me away. I deactivated my account. Now I spend my mornings reading a book instead of Facebook posts.
A facebook post from Sandra Samons:
"I hope I'm doing this right! Am I the oldest person on this web site, or does anyone remember this dairy? It was on the south side of Washtenaw at about where Huron Pkwy. is now. My dad, a partner in the dairy, is the tall lanky guy close to the middle. That's his secretary standing next to him. I don't remember her name, but only that my mother was very jealous of her!"
[Facebook post] Berlin's city hall, appropriately named Rotes Rathaus (Red City Hall), stands not far from Alexanderplatz in the center of what once was East Berlin. You see it towering in the background here, the target of selfie-takers toward the front of the frame. In the middleground on the right is Berlin's famous Neptune Fountain. I have closeups of the fountain that I'll share with you later.
You might be able to make out the flag flying above the Rathaus. It's the Berlin city flag and it has a bear smack-dab in the center. How cool is that! I've heard stories that the city's name is related to the German word for bear (Bär), but I understand that they are apocryphal.

Authorities have released the names of three out of four victims killed in a plane crash Wednesday at the Wendover Airport.
The Tooele County Sheriff’s Office identifies the men as 38 year-old Chad Wade, 37 year-old Justin Michael Yates and 57 year-old Lincoln Michael Dastrup. All of them were residents of Utah.
The name of a fourth man killed in the crash is being withheld pending notification of his family in India.
The men died Wednesday afternoon around 2:45 p.m. when the single engine Cessna 172 they were flying in crashed while trying to land during heavy crosswinds at the remote airport on the Nevada Utah border.
Witnesses say the plane which was landing to refuel came down a few hundred feet short of the actual runway and appeared to be buffeted by high winds as it made its approach.
Investigators for The National Transportation Safety Board are at the crash site. They say it will be several weeks before they determine an exact cause of the crash.
