Finally, another HBO series I can get totally hooked into. And not just 'cuz of the sex. (I mean, REALLY... does anyone want to see Jane Alexander naked, giving head, really?)
It's extremely well written and acted (primarily a female writing staff), and really groundbreaking in looking at dysfunctional relationships through the prism of unflinching portrayal of sex.
Last night (we're a couple of weeks behind, watching it On Demand) we finally got to see Tim DeKay's weenie, just a little. I still think Carnivàle was the best thing that's ever been done on TV (DeKay was in it), so I was eager to see what he'd do in this show.
Turns out he and his wife, despite clearly loving each other, have a sex life that has completely fallen apart, and by ignoring the problem, dancing around it, avoiding it, etc., have now gone for over a year without having sex. While there are plenty of dissimilarities, there are enough parallels between this story and my recent history that it's both fascinating to watch... and a little strange to be watching it with Tom... then, true to form, never discussing how it relates to our own past.

Dundalk overwhelm Bangor in All Ireland Final
by Roger Corbett
Bangor’s amazing run in the All Ireland Junior Cup came to an abrupt end when they were comprehensively beaten by Dundalk, eventually losing by 55-5.
Where do you start when trying to relate and absorb the events of Saturday’s final at Chambers Park? Firstly, congratulations to worthy winners Dundalk who nullified the Bangor attack, then went on to produce some stunning plays which racked up no less than 8 tries, each by a different player. For Bangor’s part, they were unable to respond to the intensity of Dundalk’s game, and lacked the cutting edge which their opponents used to great effect.
The day started full of promise, as the strong support from North Down made their way to Chambers Park in Portadown, knowing Bangor would be fielding their best team. Once again, the pundits had Bangor as the underdogs – just as they had done so in the previous three rounds! In confounding the experts earlier, Bangor produced some awesome performances against top quality opposition to get to the final. Dundalk had produced some convincing wins in the early rounds of the competition, but had struggled to get past CIYMS in the semi-final, just managing to squeeze ahead at the second time of asking. However, with a number of key players returning to the side in time for this game, they were now back at full strength and would be a formidable force to contend with.
Having won the toss, captain Jamie Clegg elected to play into the stiff wind in the first half. For the first 5 minutes, Bangor doggedly retained possession and tried to play their way into Dundalk’s half through a series of determined forward moves. However, little ground was made and, when possession was finally lost, the Dundalk back line produced a burst that simply cut through the Bangor defence resulting in an easy touch down under Bangor’s posts for a 7-0 lead.
Bangor stuck to their plan and slowly, but patiently, got their attack moving forward, eventually winning a penalty to the left of Dundalk’s posts, but Mark Widdowson’s kick into the wind drifted just wide of the mark.
The contrast in play between the two teams was becoming clear, with Bangor trying to keep the ball close while Dundalk were throwing it wide. The latter strategy was proving to be the more effective as, with 20 minutes gone, a quick back line move with players looping around resulted in an overlap on the right wing which gave a clear run in to again, score under the posts. A further 9 minutes later, they did it again and, although the Bangor defence had sensed the danger and moved across to cover it, their tackling let them down allowing Dundalk to get over in the right hand corner, taking their lead to 19-0.
By now, Bangor were trying to hang on until half time when they could regroup and come out with the wind at their backs. Dundalk, on the other hand were anxious to press home their advantage and give them a more comfortable lead. To Bangor’s credit, although camped on their own line for lengthy spells, they dug in and managed to hold on until the referee’s half time whistle.
As the teams reappeared from the dressing rooms, it was obvious Bangor were ringing the changes, particularly in the backs. With the wind advantage having lessened considerably, Bangor got the second half underway. It was now Dundalk’s turn to adopt the slow, steady approach, just as Bangor had done earlier. However, their more confident off-loading and support play was, once again, taking play deep into Bangor’s territory. Frustration at not being able to gain possession and take play out of their danger area eventually resulted in a yellow card for Clegg after a succession of penalties. Dundalk kicked the penalty to touch, won their lineout and drove for the line. Although initially held up by the Bangor defence, Dundalk’s repeated drives were eventually rewarded with another converted score, extending their lead to 26-0.
From the touchline, the Bangor faithful had felt that if their players had managed to score first in the second half, they may have been able to mount a fight-back and close the gap to their opponents. As it was, this Dundalk score simply bolstered their confidence and pushed Bangor deeper into trouble. With Bangor still a man down, Dundalk added to the score with a penalty and then another score in the corner. Everything was now working for the Leinster men, as even the difficult touchline conversion into the biting wind successfully split the posts, bringing the score to 36-0.
As the game entered the final quarter, and with Dundalk all but holding the cup, Bangor were now on the ropes. By contrast, the Dundalk players were in almost total control, and were not going to slow down now. In a 10 minute spell, they ran in a further 3 tries, making the scoreline 55-0. By now, any sense of dejection the Bangor supporters may have been feeling was now moved to feelings of sympathy for their players. However, pride was at stake and once again Bangor rallied as the game entered its final minutes. At last, the forwards got within striking distance of the Dundalk line and, although their repeated attacks were repelled, they finally managed to do what their opponents had done so effectively, and quickly passed the ball wide to Davy Charles. Even though they were 55 points ahead, the Dundalk defence made Charles work hard to drive through the tackles and score Bangor’s consolation try, bringing the final score to 55-5.
From Bangor’s point of view, the final score doesn’t tell the whole story of this competition. While the final may have resulted in a sad anti-climax for Bangor, the remarkable journey to get there will be remembered for some time. On the day, Dundalk were by far the better side, and Bangor would have to concede that their game was not up to the usual standard. However, there is no doubt the experience of competing at this level is something to relish and the goal now will be to secure a top four place in the league and try again next year.
Everybody at the club has nothing but the highest respect and praise for what has been achieved this year by not just the 1sts, but all the senior teams, and one poor result isn’t going to change that – the welcome at Upritchard Park for the returning players is testament to that. With that in mind, the players now need to put this disappointment behind them and provide the best possible response against a struggling Portadown side at home in the league next Saturday.

In front of a big crowd at Chambers Park on Saturday afternoon Dundalk delivered a stunning and ruthless display to see off the challenge of Bangor and capture the All Ireland Junior Cup title for the very first time.
Three first half tries had them firmly in control at 19-0 ahead having played with the elements at the Portadown venue during the first half and while the wind dropped somewhat after half time the Dundalk intensity most certainly didn’t as they cut loose scoring five more tries.
Dundalk returned to a heroes welcome at their Mill Road clubhouse on Saturday night after a display of pure brilliance throughout the afternoon.
Precision, pace and skill from the Louth men from start to finish left Bangor playing second fiddle for long periods.
Via Latina tombs
..................
The Tombs of the Via Latina (Italian: Tombe di Via Latina) are Roman tombs, mainly from the 2nd century AD, that are found along a short stretch of the Via Latina, an ancient Roman road close to Rome, Italy. They are now part of an archaeological park and can be visited.
History
The tombs were discovered in 1857–58 by Lorenzo Fortunati, a teacher who dabbled in archaeology and made money by selling some of the items he found.[1] A series of excavations supported by Pope Pius IX subsequently uncovered various tombs along a short stretch of the road about 6 km southeast of the center of Rome. The area was subsequently expropriated from the Barberini family by the Italian State in 1879.[2] In 1900, further excavations were initiated under the supervision of Rodolfo Lanciani.
The Archaeological Park
Tomb of the Valerii
The park extends for a short distance of 450 meters. In addition to the tombs, part of the original basalt surface of the Via Latina is also visible.
The tombs are very well preserved. Among the most notable is the Barberini tomb named after the former landowners. It has two floors above an underground burial chamber, and is constructed in red and yellow bricks, typical of Roman construction in the area in the mid 2nd century AD. The Barberini sarcophagus with reliefs representing the myths of Protesilaus and Laodamia was discovered here, and is now on display in the Vatican Museum. The tomb was used as a barn in the 8th century, when part of the roof was demolished.
The Tomb of the Valerii which dates from the second half of the 2nd century AD, is a notable two-story brick structure. Its name is arbitrary and does not relate to the original occupants of the tomb. The part above ground has been almost entirely reconstructed and is noteworthy for a portico with two columns at the front. Beyond the entrance there is an area open to the sky from where two symmetrical staircases lead to the two underground burial chambers, which were originally richly decorated with slabs of marble.
Only the underground part of the Tomb of the Pancratii survives, and the tomb is now covered with a modern building. The name comes from an inscription referring to the funerary collegium of the Pancratii, inscribed on a large marble sarcophagus that remains in situ; seven other sarcophagi found here are now in the Vatican Museum. The tomb, dated to the reign of Hadrian (AD 117–138), contains good examples of stucco work and frescoes. The fresco decoration of the underground vault include Jupiter in flight with the eagle, the Judgement of Paris. [2]

Relating the growing discord of today's America into a historical context. These quotes closely relate to the feelings of the modern political climate in our country, and the growing anger and discord our nation as a whole must confront head on if we are to avoid the mistakes of the past. This is the only political photograph i have ever done.
History is more then where we have been, It's how we got to be who we are.
I can relate to the sentiment of this decal, as I have a couple of thirsty beasts myself. Ironically the Civic is quite fuel efficient, even the sports models.
Ancient Art Week! Black-Figure Vase with The Departure of Memnon for Troy Greek, circa 550-525 BC. Royal Museums of Art and History, Brussels, Belgium. Modern scholars all relate this simple scene to one of the last moments of the Trojan War. The black man is Memnon, the great warrior said to be from “Aethiopia,” who is briefly mentioned by Homer in the Iliad, the epic account of the struggle between Greece and Troy. The story of Memnon was greatly enlarged upon by subsequent writers, who relate his arrival at Troy with innumerable troops. Although Achilles slays him in battle, in the manner of the Greek epic, Memnon’s fame only increases, and he is made immortal by the gods. Read More at TheRoot.com This work is an example of something that I’ve had to explain to people who thought they were being extremely clever. A lot of people, including art history teachers, will tell you that “Black figure technique” has nothing to do with depicting race. And it doesn’t necessarily, except for when…you know…it does. Memnon is a canonically Black character from Greek literature, depicted above on a vase in which he is shown to be Black, with this technique, and obviously contrasted with two figures who aren’t Black. And yet, even given the evidence of their own eyes, people will still argue that Memnon is fictional, and that somehow “doesn’t count” towards *ahem* “proving” whatever they have decided my point is supposed to be. Expect, well, you also have the surviving portrait bust of a real man who was also called “Memnon” (he was a student of philosopher Herodes Atticus) specifically because of his Ethiopian ancestry and his perceived resemblance to the Memnon of legend. Too much of what we conceptualize around the aesthetics of Ancient Greece and Rome is actually from the European Renaissance, with its focus on “Classical” virtues, values, and aesthetics. Then, you have the Enlightenment, with its scientific racism, racial-cultural claim-making, and philosophical justifications for enslavement, genocide, and colonialism. The imposition of whiteness onto the past, and “cleaning it up” (I’m talking dunking the Elgin Marbles in acid) to better fit a misconception of the past, can be related to Western chromophobia. What we think of as our own personal, “aesthetic” choices are actually shaped by these massive social and historical forces. And that doesn’t even begin to go into how Greco-Roman cultural achievements are perceived in the United States as belonging to whiteness and as evidence to support white supremacy, as opposed to being culturally-specific to the people descended from Greek and Roman cultures in antiquity. And before you start to think, “oh, well, not ME, I haven’t been affected by these ideas” take a look at Augusta Prima Portia’s original color scheme and let me know whether it bothers you: It’s a source of aggravation for me that we lie so much to ourselves and others when it comes to just how much we project OUR ideals onto the past, and then throw up our hands and say, “it’s not ME, it’s history!” Too much of art history writing approaches its subjects with the assumption that we can somehow know the intricacies of the society and culture, much less the individual(s), that produced the art we see before us today. And even so, this massive cultural arrogance would be less destructive if it didn’t also cut off other lines of speculation and research. So, how many exceptions does it take to show that the rule is wrong? How many things can be “the only”, or “an anomaly” or “just an artistic convention” or other terms that mean the same thing, in essence? How much “cherry picking” can I truly be doing if I am pretty much buried in flipping cherries? But that doesn’t matter when you come to the research table with the preconceived notion that whiteness is the default, and every human figure you’re going to see “from history!” is white until “proven” otherwise, in a field where “proof” is irrelevant to actual evidence. Anyhow, I’m going to be posting more black-figure works I think are relevant to the topic at hand. And as always, it is up to you to decide what you see.

At last, the forwards got within striking distance of the Dundalk line and, although their repeated attacks were repelled, they finally managed to do what their opponents had done so effectively, and quickly passed the ball wide to Davy Charles. Even though they were 55 points ahead, the Dundalk defence made Charles work hard to drive through the tackles and score Bangor’s consolation try, bringing the final score to 55-5.
From Bangor’s point of view, the final score doesn’t tell the whole story of this competition. While the final may have resulted in a sad anti-climax for Bangor, the remarkable journey to get there will be remembered for some time. On the day, Dundalk were by far the better side, and Bangor would have to concede that their game was not up to the usual standard. However, there is no doubt the experience of competing at this level is something to relish and the goal now will be to secure a top four place in the league and try again next year.
Everybody at the club has nothing but the highest respect and praise for what has been achieved this year by not just the 1sts, but all the senior teams, and one poor result isn’t going to change that – the welcome at Upritchard Park for the returning players is testament to that. With that in mind, the players now need to put this disappointment behind them and provide the best possible response against a struggling Portadown side at home in the league next Saturday.

In front of a big crowd at Chambers Park on Saturday afternoon Dundalk delivered a stunning and ruthless display to see off the challenge of Bangor and capture the All Ireland Junior Cup title for the very first time.
Three first half tries had them firmly in control at 19-0 ahead having played with the elements at the Portadown venue during the first half and while the wind dropped somewhat after half time the Dundalk intensity most certainly didn’t as they cut loose scoring five more tries.
Dundalk returned to a heroes welcome at their Mill Road clubhouse on Saturday night after a display of pure brilliance throughout the afternoon.
Precision, pace and skill from the Louth men from start to finish left Bangor playing second fiddle for long periods.

Dundalk overwhelm Bangor in All Ireland Final
by Roger Corbett
Bangor’s amazing run in the All Ireland Junior Cup came to an abrupt end when they were comprehensively beaten by Dundalk, eventually losing by 55-5.
Where do you start when trying to relate and absorb the events of Saturday’s final at Chambers Park? Firstly, congratulations to worthy winners Dundalk who nullified the Bangor attack, then went on to produce some stunning plays which racked up no less than 8 tries, each by a different player. For Bangor’s part, they were unable to respond to the intensity of Dundalk’s game, and lacked the cutting edge which their opponents used to great effect.
The day started full of promise, as the strong support from North Down made their way to Chambers Park in Portadown, knowing Bangor would be fielding their best team. Once again, the pundits had Bangor as the underdogs – just as they had done so in the previous three rounds! In confounding the experts earlier, Bangor produced some awesome performances against top quality opposition to get to the final. Dundalk had produced some convincing wins in the early rounds of the competition, but had struggled to get past CIYMS in the semi-final, just managing to squeeze ahead at the second time of asking. However, with a number of key players returning to the side in time for this game, they were now back at full strength and would be a formidable force to contend with.
Having won the toss, captain Jamie Clegg elected to play into the stiff wind in the first half. For the first 5 minutes, Bangor doggedly retained possession and tried to play their way into Dundalk’s half through a series of determined forward moves. However, little ground was made and, when possession was finally lost, the Dundalk back line produced a burst that simply cut through the Bangor defence resulting in an easy touch down under Bangor’s posts for a 7-0 lead.
Bangor stuck to their plan and slowly, but patiently, got their attack moving forward, eventually winning a penalty to the left of Dundalk’s posts, but Mark Widdowson’s kick into the wind drifted just wide of the mark.
The contrast in play between the two teams was becoming clear, with Bangor trying to keep the ball close while Dundalk were throwing it wide. The latter strategy was proving to be the more effective as, with 20 minutes gone, a quick back line move with players looping around resulted in an overlap on the right wing which gave a clear run in to again, score under the posts. A further 9 minutes later, they did it again and, although the Bangor defence had sensed the danger and moved across to cover it, their tackling let them down allowing Dundalk to get over in the right hand corner, taking their lead to 19-0.
By now, Bangor were trying to hang on until half time when they could regroup and come out with the wind at their backs. Dundalk, on the other hand were anxious to press home their advantage and give them a more comfortable lead. To Bangor’s credit, although camped on their own line for lengthy spells, they dug in and managed to hold on until the referee’s half time whistle.
As the teams reappeared from the dressing rooms, it was obvious Bangor were ringing the changes, particularly in the backs. With the wind advantage having lessened considerably, Bangor got the second half underway. It was now Dundalk’s turn to adopt the slow, steady approach, just as Bangor had done earlier. However, their more confident off-loading and support play was, once again, taking play deep into Bangor’s territory. Frustration at not being able to gain possession and take play out of their danger area eventually resulted in a yellow card for Clegg after a succession of penalties. Dundalk kicked the penalty to touch, won their lineout and drove for the line. Although initially held up by the Bangor defence, Dundalk’s repeated drives were eventually rewarded with another converted score, extending their lead to 26-0.
From the touchline, the Bangor faithful had felt that if their players had managed to score first in the second half, they may have been able to mount a fight-back and close the gap to their opponents. As it was, this Dundalk score simply bolstered their confidence and pushed Bangor deeper into trouble. With Bangor still a man down, Dundalk added to the score with a penalty and then another score in the corner. Everything was now working for the Leinster men, as even the difficult touchline conversion into the biting wind successfully split the posts, bringing the score to 36-0.
As the game entered the final quarter, and with Dundalk all but holding the cup, Bangor were now on the ropes. By contrast, the Dundalk players were in almost total control, and were not going to slow down now. In a 10 minute spell, they ran in a further 3 tries, making the scoreline 55-0. By now, any sense of dejection the Bangor supporters may have been feeling was now moved to feelings of sympathy for their players. However, pride was at stake and once again Bangor rallied as the game entered its final minutes. At last, the forwards got within striking distance of the Dundalk line and, although their repeated attacks were repelled, they finally managed to do what their opponents had done so effectively, and quickly passed the ball wide to Davy Charles. Even though they were 55 points ahead, the Dundalk defence made Charles work hard to drive through the tackles and score Bangor’s consolation try, bringing the final score to 55-5.
From Bangor’s point of view, the final score doesn’t tell the whole story of this competition. While the final may have resulted in a sad anti-climax for Bangor, the remarkable journey to get there will be remembered for some time. On the day, Dundalk were by far the better side, and Bangor would have to concede that their game was not up to the usual standard. However, there is no doubt the experience of competing at this level is something to relish and the goal now will be to secure a top four place in the league and try again next year.

Those words relate to me more than you guys think.
thay the main reason why i chose them.
And the sad thing is, time changes us.
P.S: the white bokeh, is rain :)
This was taken a few months back, but relates to something kind of funny/strange that happened last week. First of all, it is not our cat, but that is our side yard fence. The cat belongs to the house behind us. He is staring at another neighborhood cat that was in our front yard at the time.
So, the other night I wake up around 5am and go to the bathroom. I hear water running in the pipes below. Very loud. I go downstairs and look around thinking maybe a pipe burst, but can't find anything, so I turn off the water main to the house to make the noise stop. After lying awake for 2 hours until the sun came up, which included going down to check around the house with a flashlight for leaking water, including outside, I finally get up again and use the bathroom. Afterward, I turn on the water main to fill up the toilet tank. This time, I quickly traced the sound of the water from the pipes below our room to the hose bib on the side of the house right below where this cat is sitting in this photo. Sure enough, the faucet is on. At first I was at a loss to explain it. Finally arrived at the possibility of an animal turning on the faucet by bumping into it, since I've actually done that a few times. Sure enough, lots of scratches on the fence boards next to the faucet. Yeah, the house is weird in that the pipes to that faucet go up through the center of the house to the attic and then down the side wall. It is like they forgot to plumb for it when they poured the foundation. Most of the pipes are there instead. I never hear that faucet from inside when it is on since I'm the one using it outside normally.
Short story long, I think this cat had used the faucet as a spring board enough times to climb up the fence that it had finally nudged the water on. It can't have been on for long, since there wasn't any puddling yet. It had rained the night before, though, so I didn't notice it when I waved the flashlight around earlier. All I can say is that I'm glad we didn't have a leak in the house like I was originally imagining in my fog of sleep. That, and I'm glad the water was only on for a little while. I don't think it would have done any damage since the water would have run off into the yard and down the street, but it would have been a huge waste if it had happened a few days previously, when we were away for the weekend.
Cute cat, though. He is a roamer. Kind of surprised the coyotes haven't gotten him yet. We still haven't gotten any new cats. Still strange to not have any in the house anymore. We're thinking maybe in the spring.
