Memories of Quinpool, a mural created by Dan Burt in July 2022 for the Halifax Mural Festival in Halifax (Nova Scotia), Canada. The mural painted on the wall of Busan Korean BBQ restaurant at 6311 Quinpool Road is an homage to the history of the Quinpool area, featuring such vanished landmarks as Hogie's Steakhouse, Oxford Theatre and Video Difference, as well as the old school General Motors Metro Transit city buses.
I created and made these last weekend April 12/13, 2014. Painted watercolor papers and minimal embellishments. I'm making these to bless our church's Missions ministry and more!

… a day makes. Today was a beautiful day on the golf course with the sun shining and almost shirtsleve conditions. Hopefully it will be the same tomorrow as there is a tournament at the course.
Everyone needs a little reassurance sometimes. Even if you know you're on the right path, just a simple word, or a hand on the shoulder and an understanding look can make a world of difference.

The Science|Business Roundtable "The Energy Difference - Accelerating Energy Innovation" took place on 11 March 2011 at the Representation of the German state of Baden-Württemberg to the European Union in Brussels.
Energy R&D has some fundamental characteristics that sets it apart from that in other technology sectors. The installed base of assets means it’s difficult and costly for alternative technologies to compete. And despite the risk and huge outlays for innovation, the final products – fuel and electricity – are largely undifferentiated. Research needs long horizons and planning certainty. Would a different policy approach help Europe meet the EC’s 2020 energy goals?
Science|Business is the first independent media company that brings together researchers, investors and policy makers in the European innovation community. It publishes news, organises networking events, conducts innovation-policy research, and provides communications consulting tailored to the specialized world of research and innovation.

I almost threw this one out, until the mom saw it and said "WOW! That's perfect, because this is how we always are! He's always so serious, and I'm always joking around"

Seen from the back. Printing mill is to the right.
If DNA was made of brass and steel, it might look a little like this.
This is it,
black or old,
unlucky name or long list of meds,
inexperienced in politics or bad tempered to foreign issues,
ties to bad people or flip flop on beliefs,
one has a VP that's soaked in the corrupted government,
the other has a ditz.
ONe wants change, the other wants the Reagan years.
Babble babble, NOW JUST VOTE FOR WHAT YOU KNOW IS THE TRUTH!
Now my destiny can begin
Though we will have our differences
Something strange and new is happening

In Japan, the most of cars has driver sheet on left side and traffic lane
is on right side. But here, it is opposite. This is basic difference
though, interesting for me.

Governor Josh Shapiro, First Lady Lori Shapiro, Lieutenant Governor Austin Davis, and Second Lady Blayre Holmes Davis will host a State Dinner at the Governor’s Residence in honor of nine Pennsylvanians who have made a difference in their communities. The State Dinner will tell the stories of nine Pennsylvanians who do meaningful work to improve the lives of others across the Commonwealth.
The centerpiece of the evening’s program will be the presentation of the Governor’s Keystone Award, which each honoree will receive in recognition of the significant contributions they’ve made to their communities, donating their time, knowledge, and talents to help improve the lives of others.
Members of the Shapiro Administration’s cabinet will also attend the State Dinner, which will feature a string quartet from the NEPA Philharmonic.
“Josh and I are honored to welcome these inspiring Pennsylvanians and their families into our home so we can recognize the work they are doing to make our Commonwealth a better place,” said First Lady Lori Shapiro. “Their incredible stories show that no matter who you are or where you come from, you can make a difference in the lives of the people around you. All nine Pennsylvanians being honored tonight are examples of the power of one – one person serving their community, addressing the needs they see, lending a helping hand, can have a compounding nature and a large impact over time.”
“As I travel all across our Commonwealth, it’s the stories of Pennsylvanians who are making a difference in their communities that inspires me and keeps me going,” said Governor Josh Shapiro. “The First Lady and I are honored to recognize nine exemplary Pennsylvanians who are improving their communities, whether that means advocating for those too often forgotten and left behind, mentoring our children to ensure they have the tools to succeed, or supporting those who have served in uniform. We congratulate and thank them for their contributions to our Commonwealth, dedication to their communities, and commitment to service.”
The State Dinner is part of Governor and First Lady Shapiro’s efforts to reimagine the use of Governor’s Residence, opening the Residence up to more Pennsylvanians and organizing programs that inspire others to give back to their communities.
Tonight’s honorees include:

He co-founded Philadelphia Youth Basketball (PYB) in 2015 after several years of working in youth development.

Glynis Johns from Scranton: Glynis is local historian, sociologist, artist, and advocate from Scranton. While pursuing her master’s degree, she discovered that decades of Black history in Scranton was not being taught.

The Black Scranton Project researches and archives local Black history and shares that information with the public to foster awareness and representation.
Thomas Lenox from Erie: Tommy is the coordinator of the Erie Police Athletic League (PAL).

Tommy was awarded ‘Officer of the Year’ by the Northwestern Pennsylvania Chiefs of Police Association for his work with PAL.
