Kyle Downey, Heavy Equipment Operator for Civil Works Contracting, (CWC) scoops dirt to load a high rail rotary dump truck for repair of washouts on railway leading into the Military Ocean Terminal Sunny Point, N.C., Oct. 3, 2018. The installation is a critical logistics hub used to store and ship Defense Department ammunition, dangerous cargo and explosives throughout the world. This work is part of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers first contract aimed at the recovery of the installation after damages caused by Hurricane Florence Sept. 14 and 15. The contract was executed in record time; less than two weeks from assessment to construction. - U.S. Army photo by Russell Wicke
the ability to choose and arrange the rainbow's spectrum can be transformed into an intellectual motif -- the rainbow of consciousness and the explosion of the individual within the whole.
all of us are born into this social contract of humanity. we don't have any choice about this. we are raised and reared within the boundaries of these social contracts.
currently, in this part of the world, there is a loosening of the moral and religious hold on sexuality and the range of the human heart's ability to be bigger than the limited and challenging gender roles of the past.
both sexes, men and women, are starting to understand themselves inside a much greater context and understanding than we think the past afforded.
it is just one of the outgrowths of a materialized capitalistic system of social contracting.
with moving imagery and invisible worlds now firmly entrenched across the country, the powerful syndrome of "the emperor who wore no clothes" can take full effect.
in the original tale, the narrative stops short on the exclamation of a small girl child who says, "but, mommy, he's not wearing any clothes!"
and of course, the moral right and the rigid uptight sexual judgers all come down on the period with their verdict -- which really is that the emperor has been cheated and defrauded in front of everyone.
but we already know of this lesson.
so perhaps we really should be asking where our true naked leaders are -- not the one who got cheated and defrauded and paraded in front of his subjects by clever tailors. we should be asking where our naked leaders of greatness and awesomeness and full human glory might be.
we really should be considering the idea that our leaders shouldn't need to be covered up in metaphorical or physical buffers and boundaries.
but our leaders are weapons manufacturers and drug dealers and pornographers.
our leaders spread disease and pestilence and cause wars in other countries.
our leaders are not rainbow warriors. they are gold and diamond collectors. they use time and drugs to rule and reign. they use entertainment and news to delight and bemuse.
we are the fire children.
we love our energy.
but we don't worship the sun like we used to in the alleged past.
we worship ourselves.
and this worship of the self is the exploding dahlia.
we are these dahlias floating through space. and each of us explode one day.

Nearly 1,000 registered nurses in Austin, Texas at Ascension's Seton Medical Center participate in a historic one-day strike Tuesday, June 27 to protest the health care giant’s refusal to address its endemic staffing crisis. During contract negotiations, management has dismissed nurses’ solutions for safe staffing protections and nurse recruitment and retention, both critical factors for ensuring patient safety.
Seton Medical Center nurses are striking with 2,000 Ascension nurses in Texas and Kansas represented by National Nurses Organizing Committee/National Nurses United (NNOC/NNU).

River Dargle Flood Defence Scheme.
These images were taken during the first week of November, 2016.
Remember how I'd opined in late September about . . . .
"Constant traffic nowadays with hard material being trucked in and dumped in storage areas along The Slang/Rehills section of the river bank. Further work is now being undertaken to upgrade the protection of the riverbank edge with the laying down of extra stone material."
Well, for every action, there clearly is an equal and opposite reaction.
Time to move the soil on. Again.
I tell you, the company hiring out trucks for the movement of all this material must be rubbing their hands with glee.
But what do I know? Just an itinerant observer.
But there is huge increase in these heavy vehicles travelling up and down the Upper Dargle Road.
Before and after the October Bank Holiday weekend there has been a dramatic increase in the volume of trucks contracted to haul away soil.
The previous 'mountains' are suddenly shrinking.
Will we (ever) see their like again?
Don't bet against it.

CEA Project Logistics were contracted for preservation services, installation of steel and wood supports, weighing and Centre of Gravity reporting and the loadout of 15 modules and 3 filtration vessels for an Ethoxylation Plant in Pasadena, Texas.
CEA Team’s designed, fabricated on-site and installed temporary steel and wooden supports for over 300 valves, each support secured every valve in position to prevent damage and stresses to the pipe work and other structures during transportation.
The Project Engineer for CEA assisted the project by providing services for weighing each of the 15 modules and 3 vessels and providing detailed engineering CoG weighing reports to the clients. Preservation work was carried out for every control valve and pump on each of the modules and pipe racks to ensure protection against oxidation rust and dust from moisture and air.
For the final part of this project, CEA provided a full scope of loadout services to transport the 18 units on hydraulic trailers from the fabrication shipyard to alongside vessel in Laem Chabang Port. Route Transport surveys had previously been carried and a CEA escort vehicle accompanied each convoy to ensure maximum safety during the transportation. Modules were readied for export and loadout was completed by the vessels onboard cranes.
