Visitors to the Current show at the Serpentine Sackler Gallery, Hyde Park were directed by the Chapman Brothers with this message.
GET RID OF MEANING. YOUR MIND IS A NIGHTMARE.
Easier said than done when it comes to this art by the Chapman Brothers which features the familiar mutilated bodies and scenes of horrific torture and gruesome ritualised decapitations that do not necessarily contrive to horrify, as this sentence would appear to suggest.
The Chapman brothers are inclined to provide enough comforting context. We Monks were after all invited to enter a brand new swanky art gallery and no art lover as far as we are aware has thus far been harmed or traumatised by a Chapman image.
We entered cautiously and discovered the familiar grim images, scary in a "ghost train" kind of way. The Chapman Klansmen are comedy Klansmen with rainbow socks and comedy smiley faces. The Chapman crucified martyrs are nothing more than harmless corporate Ronald MacDonald effigies, and so very many of them as in the real world.
I found myself failing to "get rid of meaning" by comparing the Chapman Brothers to Richard Dadd, whose "Fairy Feller's" is arguably more horrific, given Dadd's state of mind, but far less horrifically explicit than the Chapman Brothers.
As far as we know the Chapman Brothers are not actually psychotic. They are more inclined to toy with the visitors most visitors go along with the toying. I could not fail to notice two American ladies failing to "get rid of the meaning" They provided me with an in-depth commentary on each particular scene of horror and mutilation as if Ronald MacDonald were a real person and these were scenes from a soap opera, a warped Nazi soap opera.
The miniature horror model show might also appeal to the model makers within all of us boys, seeking the same thrill you might get when you view an architect's model of a new airport or a shopping centre complete with little trees to provide context and scale.
For this reason I did wonder why The Chapman Brothers had not provided a model Hornby Nazi train-set to circulate about the corpses. Yes, I do believe that there is a train spotting model maker and dark grim humour within us all.
We Monks saw "Hell", the earlier Chapman Brothers work which featured similar miniature grotesque models in glass cases. These works which took years of endeavour to construct were destroyed in the cataclysmic MOMART fire in the 2004. They have now been recreated and re-imagined somewhat in the same spirit.
I discussed this with a young "curator" in the gallery. I discovered that the new Serpentine Sackler Gallery was in fact an 1805 listed building and formerly a depositary for gunpowder and such. I again found myself failing to "get rid of the meaning", so I changed the subject and I told her that I was a little scared to go into the central section behind the black curtain, from where I could hear the sounds of horror. She said that I should not be scared and that all would be well if I were to enter..
Beyond the black curtain masked members of the KKK were sitting amongst the visitors watching a Chapman movie. There I observed Mrs Monk sitting next to a KKK pointy hat both of them watching the horror movie as if it were the most natural thing in the world.
There was a Chapmanesque resonance in the movie but no fearful reaction from the visitors. Just the occasional knowing laugh.
Aamir Khan got body spray painted for Dhoom 3! - www.bolegaindia.com/gossips/Aamir_Khan_got_body_spray_pai...
The last few days have been a flurry of activity with building on the river and wet lands. But, in between I have gone to a bunch of new places and back to some of my favorite venues.
Xavier & I love to salsa. So we did a search and wham, we found >Latin Palace Dance Club. Couples were dancing in dressy attire to wonderful salsa music. Wearing a tuxedo without a shirt and me in a short cocktail dress, it so reminded Xavier & me of Miami clubs.
A stopover at Organica to catch the last hour of DJ Qee's set woke us up with a nice psy jolt! So good to hear Qee's dynamic sounds and see old friends.
A brand new club called Fear FM sent me a tp. I got to meet owner/builder Cypher Webb. Beautifully built by Cypher, he was also spinning an awesome set of hardstyle and goth rock. I had a blast there. Cypher is also recruiting DJ's so peeps, give him a shout!
It was so late on Thursday night (Fri morn?) that I just had to stop off and say hi to DJ Xavi at The Cave. Owner Tasty Hax was there, too. I run into her at every party!
Friday afternoon, I got a tp from one of the builders. I ended up at Blackhearts 80's club. I love the funkiness of this club. So simple. It feels like a rock n roll club. Halloween was coming and the Pillsbury Dough Boy showed up! LOL!
Late night, and Xavier & I headed for DJ Nebulae's set at Piranha. Xavi loves this club. He set his JMD Effects hud on and we were in psy heaven. We always have fun at Shad's club!
In between all the craziness, I hit New Berlin's Electro Smog. Gee... I can't seem to get enough of this place. Zap Hax was hosting and DJ djleftydc Denja was spinning a sweet set of tunes.
Another new place I landed upon was Le Ghetto Hype. This is a fun club of alternative and eclectic tunes. Owner DJ Frederick Neberle & partner ARNAUD Mureaux have built a wonderful place to hang.
Off to Divaz Lounge! DJ 8wall Wrigglesworth just sent me a tp! OMG, 8wall is spinning at Divaz.
I met 8wall at Dance Island last year and then over at Nutrie. He spins a very chill set of house and minimal tunes.
But, the highlight of my night was at Old Factory listening to DJ Jeangilles Anthony. This frenchman is an artist. Beautiful industrial noise layered with a hardstyle beat... then transcending into experimental music... psychedelic experimental noise. LOL! and I fell asleep there... just couldn't leave!
Late night on Friday, Xavier and I ended up at DJ Digital Francis' Le Pardis de Digital Nation. It was an after party and Digi was spinning. Xavi & Digi started a "stump me" game. I think Digital was very impressed with Xavier's musical knowledge. They bro-downed the entire night leaving me and DJ Snowkitty dumbfounded... 'cause neither of us knew any of the tunes. LOL! I think Xavier has a new favorite dj now!

innisfreegarden.org/garden.html
We arrived at Innisfree as soon as it opened at 10AM one mid-August morning when the entire Northeastern US was in the middle of a record heatwave. Despite the heat and humidity, we were able to make a quick 1.5 mile circle on the path around the deep glacial lake at the heart of this 150 acre garden before we wilted and had to return to our air conditioned car. The harsh mid-day light made photography challenging, as you can see. We learned that Innisfree, said by some to be one of the world's Ten Great Gardens, opens at sunrise on three occasions each year, and we are already planning another trip to the Hudson River Valley in the future when we hope we can see and photograph this amazing place under better conditions.
"Like the pyramids of Egypt or the Great Wall of China, Innisfree helps us to define what we mean by ‘civilization’. It’s one of the few places in this world that lived up to — nay, exceeded — my expectations."
David Wheeler, Editor, Hortus (2013)
"In the late 1920s, Walter Beck and his wife, avid gardener and heiress Marion Burt Beck, began work on Innisfree, their country residence in Millbrook, New York. Walter Beck’s fascination with Asian art influenced his painting, the collecting he and his wife pursued, and their ideas on garden design. In the 1930s, Beck discovered the work of 8th-century Chinese poet, painter and garden maker Wang Wei. Studying scroll paintings of his famed garden, the Wangchuan Villa, Beck observed that Wang created carefully defined, inwardly focused gardens and garden vignettes within a larger, naturalistic landscape. Wang’s place-making technique — christened “cup gardens,” by Beck — influenced centuries of Chinese and Japanese garden design. It is also the principal design motif in the Innisfree landscape. Like his Chinese predecessor, Beck created three-dimensional pictures in the garden, incorporating both rocks from the site and horticultural advice from his wife. Unlike Wang Wei, or perhaps more familiar figures like Lawrence Johnston, who used his cup-like rooms at Hidcote in England to draw one through a sequence of events and create an overall sense of place, Beck focused more on individual compositions. Relating these to each other and to the landscape as a whole was the genius of Lester Collins."
The genius of this place lies not so much in the ideas which the designers formulated for the cup gardens, many of which are disarmingly simple, but in the way they have been maintained over the years. Essentially, everything is allowed to settle into the prevailing spirit of the place; if it does not, it is removed. It is this sensitivity, care and attention to the qualities of landscape, natural and made, that make Innisfree such a memorable success.
Tim Richardson, Great Gardens of America (2000)
Western gardens are usually designed to embrace a view of the whole. Little is hidden. The garden, like a stage set, is there in its entirety, its overall design revealed in a glance. The traditional Chinese garden is usually designed so that a view of the whole is impossible. [It] requires a stroll over serpentine, seemingly aimless arteries. The observer walks into a series of episodes, like Alice through the looking glass." .

Roma - Apertura del percorso del Tempio di Venere e Roma nel Foro romano. MIBAC (12/11/2010).
l Commissario delegato per le aree archeologiche di Roma e di Ostia antica Roberto Cecchi, secondo un programma concordato con la Soprintendenza Speciale per i Beni Archeologici di Roma, prosegue le operazioni finalizzate alla messa in sicurezza dei monumenti in custodia e all’ampliamento degli itinerari di visita offerti ai visitatori.
È questa la volta del tempio di Venere e Roma che si affaccia sulla valle del Colosseo dall’imponente basamento voluto dall’imperatore Adriano che dedicò l’edificio alla Città Eterna e alla dea Venere, madre di Enea suo fondatore. Costruito sulle pendici della Velia a partire dal 121 d.C., sottende una chiara valenza politica creando la sintesi tra Venere, cui è attribuita una dimensione cosmica, e Roma, rappresentata in forma divinizzata, ma anche la sintesi tra il passato e il futuro dell’Urbe, tra Oriente e Occidente, tra Aeternitas e Fortuna.
La storia
Il tempio, inaugurato nel 141 d.C. dal successore di Adriano, l’imperatore Antonino Pio, fu eretto nel luogo in cui sorgeva in precedenza il vestibolo della Domus Aurea, di cui si mantenne l’orientamento e si riutilizzarono in parte le fondazioni. Il tempio, di forme ellenizzanti, si innalzava al centro del grande podio artificiale: questo era affiancato sui lati lunghi da un doppio portico di colonne in granito grigio, su cui si aprivano al centro i due propilei, mentre sui lati corti era collegato con delle scalinate alla piazza del Colosseo e al Foro. Le colonne ancor oggi visibili furono rialzate durante i restauri degli anni trenta.
Il tempio vero e proprio si presentava come un diptero: all’interno due celle orientate in senso opposto, una per ciascuna divinità, e precedute da un vestibolo. Del peristilio di colonne corinzie non rimane nulla, e della cella verso il Colosseo – quella dedicata a Venere – resta solo l’abside. L’altra abside, invece, fu inglobata nell’ex convento di Santa Francesca Romana. Quanto è giunto sino ad oggi risale, però, in gran parte, al restauro voluto da Massenzio nel 307 d.C. in seguito all’incendio che distrusse tutta la parte centrale del Foro. A questo restauro si devono le celle absidali in laterizio con copertura a volte cassettonate, gli stucchi dei cassettoni (ricopiati anche dal Palladio), le colonne in porfido lungo le pareti e il pavimento in lastre marmoree.
L’abbandono dell’edificio e la seguente spoliazione delle strutture hanno inizio nel VII secolo, quando l’imperatore Eraclio concede a papa Onorio (625-638) le tegole di ottone della copertura del tetto per usarle a San Pietro.
I primi scavi sistematici dell’area vengono realizzati durante l’amministrazione francese della città, tra il 1810 e il 1817 e cominciano le demolizioni delle strutture medievali.
Il culto di Venere e Roma
Come testimonia un testo dello scrittore greco Ateneo (II-III secolo d.C.), la fondazione del culto di Venere e Roma e il voto del tempio alle due divinità da parte dell’imperatore Adriano (117-138 d.C.) avvengono in concomitanza con la riorganizzazione della festa dei Parilia: in base a una moneta l’evento può essere datato con precisione al 21 aprile del 121 d.C.. La costruzione del tempio (locatio) ha inizio subito dopo. Le Palilia o Parilia erano un’antichissima festa pastorale della religione romana che si celebrava il 21 aprile in onore del numen Pale. A partire dal 121 d.C. si iniziò a festeggiare nella stessa data anche il giorno della fondazione di Roma, ovvero la festività di Romaia.
Il progetto di sistemazione dell’area monumentale
All’intervento del Commissario delegato si devono la manutenzione straordinaria di tutta l’area del tempio e le sistemazioni funzionali per l’apertura al pubblico dell’area monumentale. Le risorse impegnate ammontano a 264.034,80 euro.
Negli anni ottanta del secolo scorso le due metà del tempio, rimaste a lungo divise l’una dall’altra, sono gestite da due diverse amministrazioni (il Comune di Roma amministrava la cella di Venere e il Ministero per i Beni Culturali e Ambientali quella di Roma). In seguito a un accordo, vengono riunificate nel complesso monumentale dell’area archeologica del Foro Romano-Palatino, ma di fatto i segni della separazione si rintracciano non solo nelle barriere di divisione, ma anche e soprattutto nella diversità delle funzioni. La cella di Roma fruita come quinta dell’Antiquario Forense, mentre quella di Venere resta un giardino urbano, anche se ormai chiuso alla città.
Le finalità che il nuovo progetto di sistemazione dell’area e di restauro delle strutture ha perseguito sono il superamento di queste differenze e la ricomposizione dei “segni” dell’architettura originaria, per rendere nuovamente palese l’antica grandiosità e restituire l’immagine unitaria del tempio. La nuova sistemazione dell’area ha operato un profondo cambiamento sia dell’immagine sia della funzione dello spazio del tempio rispetto a quelle realizzate nel 1935. Fino agli anni ottanta l’area era occupata da una strada, asfaltata, accessibile perfino alle auto, che conduceva al giardino: piazza di Venere e Roma. Oggi il tempio non è più una piazza urbana ed è tornato a far parte del contesto archeologico cui apparteneva e all’asfalto si è sostituito il manto erboso. Gli interventi, diffusi sulla quasi totalità delle strutture, hanno il solo scopo di ripristinare la continuità e l’omogeneità strutturale delle murature fratturate e lesionate, di contrastare i fenomeni di rotazione provocati dall’asportazione degli appoggi e di permettere il corretto scorrimento e smaltimento dell’acqua, principale responsabile del degrado. Le opere di restauro più impegnative hanno interessato le semicalotte delle absidi e le alte mura del lato sud. I monitoraggi indicavano infatti che la profonda lesione creatasi tra le semicalotte, sulla sommità, progrediva lenta ma inesorabile e che al tempo stesso le infiltrazioni d’acqua all’interno della lesione provocavano il degrado della decorazione in stucco. Il lato sud delle celle si conservava meglio degli altri – arriva a un’altezza di circa m 20 – ma i blocchi della fondazione, per gran parte asportati, avevano dato luogo a un fenomeno di rotazione che, data l’altezza, metteva a rischio la stabilità delle strutture. L’equilibrio era stato messo in crisi anche dal crollo delle scale che in antico occupavano la zona dell’incrocio delle absidi, e che costituivano un valido elemento di irrigidimento funzionale al sistema costruttivo. Il segno di sofferenza delle strutture era visibilmente denunciato dalle lesioni, profonde quanto diffuse, visibili sulle murature. Per il consolidamento è stato realizzato, alla base delle murature, un sistema continuo di contrafforti, collegati da solai armati, che si sostituisce alla fondazione mancante e dà nuovamente l’appoggio adeguato alle alte strutture murarie annullando la rotazione in atto. La parziale ricostruzione del muro perimetrale ha in questo caso una doppia funzione, sia statica sia d’immagine. Le murature delle absidi sono state consolidate con iniezioni di malta, spesso armate, che servono a ripristinare la continuità muraria interrotta dalle lesioni.

Henk Vergouwen in een zweefvliegtuig. Naast hem W. Hölscher die als kandidaat voor de pilotenopleiding later afviel.
De paters Hermans, Verheijen en Vergouwen volgden een vliegeniersopleiding in Nederland bij de Nationale Luchtvaartschool. In 1957 vertrekken zij met hun eigen vliegtuig naar Nieuw-Guinea.

DE VLIEGERIJ EN ZIJN BETEKENIS VOOR HET MISSIEWERK
Een apart hoofdstuk over de missievliegerij lijkt me hier wel op z'n plaats, omdat de missie zonder dat bedrijf nooit had kunnen doen wat zij heeft gedaan.
Al lang was het duidelijk dat de missie in Nieuw Guinea op een gegeven moment gebruik zou moeten maken van eigen vliegtuigen. De bevoorrading van de posten over land zou op de duur een te grote belasting gaan vormen voor de plaatselijke bevolking. Bovendien zou de groei van de missie
belemmerd worden als er niet een betere en meer frequente manier zou worden gevonden om de posten in het binnenland te voorzien in hun materiële en personele behoeften. Missievliegerij was noodzakelijk wilde de missie blijven functioneren en uitgroeien. Gestart in 1958 zou de missievliegerij rond de jaren 1965-1969 zorgen voor een grote verandering: een verandering die niet alleen de bevoorrading van de posten betrof, maar ook het contact van de posten onderling. De radiozenders, die noodzakelijk waren voor het vliegverkeer, zorgden er ook voor dat de communicatie tussen de missionarissen beter en intensiever werd.
Over het ontstaan en de geschiedenis van de missievliegerij wil ik het hier niet hebben: die is elders al uitvoerig beschreven. Ook niet hoe missionarissen een eigen vliegveld moesten aanleggen en de problemen die daaraan verbonden waren, want zelf heb ik nooit een vliegveld hoeven aan te leggen en zijn mij de zorgen daaromtrent bespaard gebleven. Wel heb ik van mijn medebroeders vernomen dat het aanleggen van een vliegveld een heidens karwei was. Meestal volgde de ene ontgoocheling na de ander, voordat het vliegveld eindelijk goedgekeurd werd door de piloten. Niet dat de piloten in hun eisen onredelijk waren, maar zij waren zich terdege bewust van hun verantwoordelijkheden wilden het graag zelf ook overleven.
Meestal moest zo'n missionaris een paar jaar al zijn energie geven aan het aanleggen van een eigen strip. Wanneer hij dan eindelijk dacht klaar te zijn en een testvlucht kreeg (vlucht over de strip heen), kreeg hij meestal te horen wat er nog aan mankeerde wilde de strip goedgekeurd worden. En
met dat "wat er nog aan mankeerde" was hij weer vier maanden of een half jaar bezig... En dan nog was het niet zeker of zijn strip door de piloten voor 100 procent vliegwaardig werd bevonden. Meestal volgde er dan wel een
testlanding en als die goed verliep kwam de piloot een paar keer met een halve lading. Maar om een volle lading te krijgen moest er meestal dit of dat nog "even" in orde gemaakt worden. En dan kon de missionaris er weer "even" tegen aan gaan staan. En dan te bedenken dat die vliegveldjes vaak op een schuine kant van een helling lagen of achter een bergje, dat de aan- of uitvlucht bemoeilijkte. Had er eenmaal een crash plaats gevonden, dan had het vliegveld van die missionaris een slechte naam bij de piloten. Het gevolg was dat bij slecht weer een vlucht op zijn vliegveld al snel gecanceld werd.
Het aanleggen van zo'n strip was veel tijdrovender en problematischer dan een keer een opvoer over land organiseren.
Vliegen in Nieuw Guinea, vooral in het bergland, was een riskante zaak. Bergen, regen, mist, verraderlijke windvallen, snel wisselende weersomstandigheden: het waren allemaal dingen waar een piloot regelmatig mee te maken kreeg. Als piloot in Nieuw-Guinea moest je de risico's op hun juiste waarde weten in te schatten: niet te voorzichtig (want dan kwam je nergens), maar ook niet onbezonnen. Een flexibele geest was beslist noodzakelijk: op de juiste momenten moest je kunnen improviseren. Een goed oriëntatievermogen was eveneens gewenst, want het instrumentenbord van een Cessna was maar beperkt.
Bij aanvang van het eigen missievliegbedrijf was men er van uit gegaan dat het bedrijf door paters gerund zou worden. Dus ook de piloten zouden paters zijn. De achterliggende gedachte hiervan was o.a. dat de missionaris op een eenzame post zodoende ook eens een medebroeder op bezoek zou
krijgen. In praktijk is dat nog al tegengevallen. Die paters-piloten hadden er meestal nog een andere functie bij, zodat een nachtje overblijven bij een medebroeder er meestal niet in zat.
Waren priesters nu geschikt als piloot? Theo Jansen, een lekenpiloot, zei me eens:: "Paters hebben een verkeerde opleiding en instelling om piloot te zijn!" Ik geloof dat ik begreep wat hij wilde zeggen. Als je piloot bent, heb je
daaraan een volledige en verantwoordelijke job, die niet toelaat dat je er ook nog iets bij doet. Bovendien worden paters voor alles en nog wat gevraagd en kunnen vaak maar moeilijk weigeren. Een leken-piloot heeft daar minder last van: hij wordt veel minder voor iets anders gevraagd en kan gemakkelijker weigeren.
Van de drie paters die in Hilversum een pilotenopleiding hadden gevolgd, werd er één al direct bij aankomst in Nieuw-Guinea afgekeurd: hij bleek zich onvoldoende te kunnen oriënteren tussen de bergen. Bovendien was hij te zenuwachtig. De tweede maakte al spoedig een crash, waarbij de vier inzittenden ternauwernood aan de dood ontsnapten: van verder vliegen zag hij maar af. En de derde vloog in de mist tegen een boom : hij overleefde het niet. Het was dus geen succes, die vliegende paters franciscanen. Evenmin bij de broeders franciscanen. De eerste broeder verongelukte al bij de tweede of derde solovlucht: hij bracht het er gelukkig levend vanaf. De tweede broeder piloot vloog tegen een berg, waarbij alle inzittenden om het leven kwamen.
Lag het misschien aan de franciscanen dat het zo vaak mis ging? Het begon er wel op te lijken, want een broeder van de Kruisheren, die na zijn uittreden piloot bij de missievliegerij werd, bleek een zeer bekwame piloot te zijn. Maar ook hij kwam na jarenlang uitstekend vliegen bij een ongeluk om. Van de leken-piloten echter is, ofschoon ze bijna allemaal wel eens gecrasht zijn, niemand omgekomen (behalve dan die uitgetreden broeder en een Indonesische piloot). Vliegen was dus beslist niet zonder gevaren, en alle missionarissen hebben dat op een of andere manier wel eens ondervonden. Allemaal hebben ze wel eens een hachelijk moment beleefd. Zelf heb ik twee keer in mijn rats
gezeten.
Vanuit Enarotali moest ik eens naar Moanemani. Ik zou als eerste afgezet worden en de piloot zou met twee andere passagiers doorvliegen naar Timeepa en dan naar de kust. Waarom weet ik niet, maar onderweg besloot de piloot (Theo Jansen) van de route af te wijken en eerst naar Timeepa te
gaan. Vermoedelijk omdat het daar tegen de middag nogal eens winderig kan zijn met het risico van een landing met staartwind. Pater Zwartjes in Timeepa gaf, voordat hij zich naar het vliegveld begaf, via de radiozender aan ons door dat er geen wind was. Maar nog voordat hij op het vliegveld was aangekomen (een kwartier lopen) was de wind opeens opgestoken. Terug naar huis gaan om ons via de zender voor die wind te waarschuwen, had geen zin meer: we waren al vlak bij de strip. De piloot zette de landing in, maar boven de strip merkte hij dat de wind te sterk was en hij besloot door te starten. De wind was echter zo sterk dat hij geen hoogte meer kon maken. We vlogen recht op een Ekagi-hut af. Ik dacht: dit is het einde. Rakelings scheerden we over de hut. Daar waren we goed vanaf gekomen. Maar meteen deed zich het volgende probleem al voor: rechtdoor vliegen was onmogelijk vanwege de bergen die meteen achter de strip opdoemden.
De piloot was dus gedwongen om met geringe hoogte een bocht te nemen. Dat lukte hem ook wonder wel, al was het dat we tussen de bomen door vlogen. Misschien droom ik daarom nog wel eens dat we tussen bomen door vliegen en er niet uit kunnen komen. Een tweede landingspoging lukte beter, maar toen we uitstapten stond de piloot te trillen op zijn benen. Later hoorden we dat zich drie mensen in die hut bevonden en dat het vliegtuig alle dakbedekking van het huis had weggezogen.

Paris Olympics 2024 - It appears that CBC has partnered with one particular online Casino company and BetRivers is running sports betting ads during the televising of Olympic sporting events ?

Aug 22 2024, the Minister of hypocrisy, oops, I mean the Minister of Health Mark Holland and his Liberal Government have passed legislation to enable massive gambling in Canada ? And now we are seeing NHL heros past and present like Wayne Gretzky, Austin Matthews and Connor McDavid in TV gambling commercials, in online gambling ads, and profiles pasted onto huge billboards promoting gambling ? However, Holland is not worried and he seems to be more concerned about Zonnic, a smoking cessation product that helps one quit a bad habit and sold only to those over 19 and always kept hidden away from view under the counter in stores ?
Fans confused ? After Mark Holland says he is protecting our youth from the Zonnic vape product and he vociferously proclaims that, "All the stuff that's clearly designed to target youth — It's over ! ", meanwhile we are watching NHL Superstar heroes play starring roles in glamorous new bet MGM ads to promote gambling ? After numerous complaints were filed from parents, they eased away from the image of Sports heros encouraging and participating in gambling but McDavid's image itself was never separated from the gambling vice or the lucrative gambling industry but instead relegated to shows Connor as the ambassador for safe and responsible gambling ?

Or, what if they spin : You're 'good' if you drink but You're 'great' if you safe drink, or, you're 'good' if you smoke cigarettes but You're 'great' if you safe smoke only so many cigarettes per day, or , you're 'good' if you smoke pot but you're 'great' if you only smoke this many grams per day ? ref, "All those sports betting ads you're seeing,, It's illegal says the Alberta gaming commission ? www.cbc.ca/player/play/2302654019728

George Orwell's dark prediction has just come true.
London England, Apr 22,2026 - The British Parliament has just enacted legislation to install a form of Orwellian Totalitarian rule into the current democratic English society that allows for the installment of Government social control on the people in the form of mandatory lifetime probationary orders to be placed on certain selected unwary citizens without asking their permission who are then to be state monitored from birth to death to insure compliance is met on the legal lifetime probation order that will be attached to them ?

Dire messages will also be added to the extended upper flap inside cigarette packages says Karine LeBlanc.
Do these obsessed-with-one-product-only vain people really think that by continually satisfying their own self centered egos with a personal vendetta on one single product only that they don't happen to like and keep using the same old worn out idea over and over again while ignoring and hiding the thousands of other possible causes of cancer that they are really actually helping to find the cure for cancer ?

What Is Truth ?
"If you are strictly one-sided with any opinion, you’re incredibly ignorant".
UBC Jan 22, 2026 - An entire generation of students that have grown up attending the Canadian public school system during the Trudeau Liberal era ( 2015 thru 2025 ) have now reached post secondary age and are arriving at the University in a heavily indoctrinated state of mind with extremely one-sided only, uni-opinion attitudes that they are expressing in a strong and even physical violent way ? Gangs of masked and gagged orange shirted young student protestors, the advent of tribalism, signs of mind control, far left radical activists on campus and coercive propaganda posters hanging up in a dark Authoritarian environment where many students are afraid to speak and free will, open debate or speaking openly may be seen as a crime ?

May 29th, 2026, Kentville Memorial Park, the ABF Friday night concert, ( Are the good ole days of dollar dogs and bargain Big 8 soda pop over) ? High level G7 security protocol established for an evening of 20 dollar hamburger food trucks and little kids bouncy castles ? ( must have taken up most of their budget at the sacrifice of bringing in some good quality outside live entertainment) ? Town calls in outside police to reinforce local Kentville police, cordons off entire ground zero event perimeter with road blocks, street barricades and manned guard check posts to enforce maximum level traffic control that, unfortunately, has made patrons including seniors, the disabled, toddlers, and Mothers carrying babies have to park and walk from a fair distance to get to the park gates ? Also, in past years concert organizers always brought in special outside guest rock bands, and always featured interesting games, demonstrations and displays, and there was always a visit from the Queen Annapolisa Royal party following the prestigious coronation ceremony in Wolfville, However, unfortunately, this years event seems to have deteriorated into some kind of a Children's outdoor romper room type family show featuring food trucks, inflatable air bouncy castles and a local band featured as the star main stage performer ? There's not much to do or see for those exceeding the elementary school level other than maybe purchase some food from a food truck that charges upscale restaurant prices and then dine on a paper plate using plastic utensils while standing in a crowd of unruly kids and being lustfully observed by some nearby saliva drooling pet dogs leashed to their owners ? However, thanks to the heightened security and upscale traffic control there was a report of one parking violator being successfully apprehended and a runaway pet was also captured and returned to its owner ? www.flickr.com/photos/74039487@N02/54558198569/in/photost...
A cultural genocide is going on in Kentville ? Why is it always Kentville ? Now it's the library ? First came the loss of the Railway and Day-liner service back in 1989, then Kings council expropriated the local Airport and evicted the many other established aviation schools and businesses, they had tried to take Grand street parade away from Kentville in 2017, and then we lost the famous Cornwallis Inn logo and the 88 yrs old statue in Halifax was torn down, they then terminated Apple Blossom Princess Kentville and ended the 87 consecutive years of the Queen Annapolisa pageant. Kentville lost a huge amount of diversity provided by the many nearby villages that always participated in the Festival, as well as a termination of the Princess teas, the Coronation, and all of the popular mid-week public outdoor entertainment always held at Memorial Park during ABF week ? And now they appear to be after the popular long time Kentville Library ?
After the Town had terminated many traditional sources of public enjoyment never offering anything similar or even a close replacement, and, as Kentville gradually approaches cultural ghost town status, it is noticable that the downtown business core (in which the Mayor has a major private business interest ) has been totally renovated and restored to never before seen pristine after a complete new beautification program complete with new installations of street paving, street paint, new double sidewalks on both sides, new driveway entrances, new curb and gutter both sides, signage and flower pots ? And the other three surrounding streets making up this downtown business block have also been totally upgraded including Aberdeen Street (twice), Cornwallis Street and Main Street ?

The last few days have been a flurry of activity with building on the river and wet lands. But, in between I have gone to a bunch of new places and back to some of my favorite venues.
Xavier & I love to salsa. So we did a search and wham, we found >Latin Palace Dance Club. Couples were dancing in dressy attire to wonderful salsa music. Wearing a tuxedo without a shirt and me in a short cocktail dress, it so reminded Xavier & me of Miami clubs.
A stopover at Organica to catch the last hour of DJ Qee's set woke us up with a nice psy jolt! So good to hear Qee's dynamic sounds and see old friends.
A brand new club called Fear FM sent me a tp. I got to meet owner/builder Cypher Webb. Beautifully built by Cypher, he was also spinning an awesome set of hardstyle and goth rock. I had a blast there. Cypher is also recruiting DJ's so peeps, give him a shout!
It was so late on Thursday night (Fri morn?) that I just had to stop off and say hi to DJ Xavi at The Cave. Owner Tasty Hax was there, too. I run into her at every party!
Friday afternoon, I got a tp from one of the builders. I ended up at Blackhearts 80's club. I love the funkiness of this club. So simple. It feels like a rock n roll club. Halloween was coming and the Pillsbury Dough Boy showed up! LOL!
Late night, and Xavier & I headed for DJ Nebulae's set at Piranha. Xavi loves this club. He set his JMD Effects hud on and we were in psy heaven. We always have fun at Shad's club!
In between all the craziness, I hit New Berlin's Electro Smog. Gee... I can't seem to get enough of this place. Zap Hax was hosting and DJ djleftydc Denja was spinning a sweet set of tunes.
Another new place I landed upon was Le Ghetto Hype. This is a fun club of alternative and eclectic tunes. Owner DJ Frederick Neberle & partner ARNAUD Mureaux have built a wonderful place to hang.
Off to Divaz Lounge! DJ 8wall Wrigglesworth just sent me a tp! OMG, 8wall is spinning at Divaz.
I met 8wall at Dance Island last year and then over at Nutrie. He spins a very chill set of house and minimal tunes.
But, the highlight of my night was at Old Factory listening to DJ Jeangilles Anthony. This frenchman is an artist. Beautiful industrial noise layered with a hardstyle beat... then transcending into experimental music... psychedelic experimental noise. LOL! and I fell asleep there... just couldn't leave!
Late night on Friday, Xavier and I ended up at DJ Digital Francis' Le Pardis de Digital Nation. It was an after party and Digi was spinning. Xavi & Digi started a "stump me" game. I think Digital was very impressed with Xavier's musical knowledge. They bro-downed the entire night leaving me and DJ Snowkitty dumbfounded... 'cause neither of us knew any of the tunes. LOL! I think Xavier has a new favorite dj now!
Wednesday 25 July 2012: Les Contamines-Montjoie - Auberge Le Truc (1,720 m) - Refuge de Miage (1,560 m) - Col de Tricot (2,120 m) - Bellevue (1,800 m) - Col de Voza (1,653 m) - Les Houches - Les Bossons
Day 12 of our Tour du Mont Blanc, on Exodus' Mont Blanc Circuit trip - a clockwise circumambulation of the Mont Blanc massif
Today would bring us back into the valley of Chamonix-Mont Blanc, and it felt far too soon to be returning to Les Bossons. Suddenly the end was nigh....
After our final tent wrangling, and Stephen and Ian demonstrating their double act tent-taking-down skills for the rest of us, we said au revoir lovely Camping Le Pontet and walked down to Les Contamines, turning off at the signpost for Le Truc. A steep climb up through pine trees eventually brought us out above the tree line at Auberge Le Truc (1,720 m). The morning's blue skies and bright sun made for poor photos of the Glacier du Miage and the peaks above, including the elusive Mont Blanc and the Aiguille de Bionnassay.
A descent into the next valley brought us to the Refuge de Miage (1,560 m) in its stunning location below the glacier and the Dômes de Miage (but the sun was still working against my photos!). Refreshed by coffee and cake (I declined the blueberry tarte at 7€ a slice...), we commenced the long haul and many zigs and zags up to the Col de Tricot (2,120 m). En route, it did indeed feel frustrating to have lost the 200m between Auberge Le Truc and Refuge de Miage! Still, the views from the col were smashing - north into the Bionnassay valley with the line of the Mont Blanc Tramway just discernable, and south back over the Miage valley and to the ridges beyond. A great spot to rest for a while.
The next stretch took us down into the Bionnassay valley and more great views of the peaks and glaciers of the Mont Blanc Massif up to our right, and we lunched with a stupendous view looking up the Glaicer de Bionnassay at the Aiguille de Bionnassay and Dôme du Goûter.
Accompanied by Alpine Roses, flowers and woodland we descended towards the Torrent de Bionnassay, and crossed, carefully, over the cable suspension bridge. A very busy section followed, up to Bellevue where the tramway and the cable car from Les Houches deposit strollers, hikers and mountaineers alike. Those with tired legs opted for the cable car down, the rest of us continued to the Col de Voza (1,653 m) and then took the black run down to Les Houches - the sandy/scree track made for tough going on the knees.
Having made a rainy rendezvous at a bar in Les Houches, we squeezed onto the bus back to Les Bossons - hello again Camping Les Marmottes .... and BONJOUR MONT BLANC! Yes, at last.... we realised what we'd missed on our arrival... the amazing views of the Glacier des Bossons, Mont Blanc and the Aiguille du Midi - and many more peaks and ridges besides. The colours turned from blue to white to rose pink as the sun set. Beautiful.

www.decorobra.com/revestir-paredes-de-forma-original-prac...
Cada temporada vemos nuevas propuestas que nos permiten elegir entre una amplia gama de posibilidades cuando se trata de decorar nuestros espacios en el hogar, y uno que recibe mayor atención es la pared.
Es fácil cansarse de la misma antigua pintura y los tradicionales empapelados, pero si no se analizan todos los aspectos de la decoración del ambiente en cuestión, las alternativas de revestimientos de pared, pueden ser demasiado audaces ya que es más complicado para quitarlos si no nos agradan.
Tela
La tela se está convirtiendo en una opción cada vez más popular y creativa en la invención de revestimientos de paredes, y se puede utilizar de muchas maneras. Una opción es cubrir una pared completa. Cubriendo toda una pared con tela puede ser sutil o descollante, dependiendo del tejido utilizado. Hay dos formas de aplicarlas : colgarlas o graparlas.
Si se es hábil con una máquina de coser, colgando la tela, no sólo es simple, si no muy chic y menos permanente. Se corta la tela de aproximadamente 5 cm más largo que la altura de la pared, se realizan dobladillos en los bordes, y se cosen en la parte superior e inferior, un doblés de 2,5 cm para pasar una varilla de tensión. La anchura del material depende del gusto.
Si prefiere grapar la tela, cortarla primero agregando 1,5 cm en todos los lados a la medida deseada. Se pegan los bordes en un cartón largo o en tiras muy finas de una madera blanda. Luego, se giran las tiras y se vuelve a pegar. Esto crea un panel de tela que se puede grapar con grapas de alta resistencia o clavarlas a la pared.
Alternativas con papel
El de empapelar no es el único papel interesante que se puede utilizar para cubrir las paredes. Se pueden utilizar los periódicos o papel de seda. Ambos pueden ser aplicados con una mezcla de goma de pegar y agua, y ambos dan un toque creativo.
Revestimientos de madera
A pesar de que los revestimientos de madera puede parecer aburrido después de hablar sobre los de telas o papeles, proporciona un descanso respecto de la pintura y papel tradicional de empapelado. Si se quiere algo diferente, que tenga un poco de pop, pero no se atreven a cubrir una pared completa con papel de periódico, pues, los revestimientos de madera pueden ser una buena solución.
Muchas tiendas de mejoras para el hogar ofrecen nuevos kits de paneles de madera que no sólo hacen más fácil la instalación, sino que a menudo son menos costosos que los paneles de madera tradicionales.

The Cars Collection of H.S.H. the Prince of Monaco
At the end of the 1950s, the car enthusiast Prince Rainier III began collecting old cars. His collection gradually grew over the years as he acquired more and more models, and the garage at the Prince's Palace soon emerged as too small to contain this collection of around a hundred stunning streamlined and sporty cars, from majestic body work to gleaming hoods and regal radiator grills!
In 1993, Prince Rainier III therefore decided to open his precious collection to the public.
Located on the Terrasses de Fontvieille, the exhibition spans 5 000 m2 and is unique in the world, bringing together around a hundred-odd different cars, from a 1903 DE DION BOUTON to the 2013 LOTUS F1 via HISPANO SUIZA, ROLLS ROYCE, LINCOLN, FACEL VEGA, DELAGE, DELAHAYE, PACKARD, HUMBER, NAPIER, FERRARI, MASERATI, LAMBORGHINI, ALFA ROMEO, the LEXUS used for the royal wedding in 2011, and without forgetting the racing cars seen at the Monte Carlo Rally and the Formula 1s from the Monaco Grand Prix.
The Car Collection of H.S.H. the Prince of Monaco will host a unique exhibition of Ferrari vehicles from 3 December 2018 to 15 March 2019.
Founded by Enzo Ferrari in 1947, in Maranello in Italy, the cars with the prancing horse have left their mark on automobile history on road and circuit. Manufacturer of race and sports cars, Ferrari quickly became an automobile benchmark, both technically and aesthetically.
At this exhibition, unique, around 50 of competition and sport cars, the most iconic of the brand, which built the Ferrari legend and which millions of fans dream about, will be brought together in the Principality for four months.

Смотреть христианский фильм на реальных событиях «Честность бесценна» Только честные войдут в Царство Небесное
Чжэнь Чэн был владельцем ремонтной мастерской. Он был добрым, честным и занимался бизнесом, соблюдая все правила. Он никогда никого не обманывал, но заработанных денег едва хватало на содержание семьи. Спустя время член семьи, который также был мастером, убедили его использовать неписаные правила ведения бизнеса. Чжэнь Чэн начал верить в поговорки, которые представляют сатанинскую философию, такие как: «Человек без дополнительного дохода никогда не разбогатеет, также как лошадь, не поевшая сена ночью, никогда не прибавит в весе», «Смелый умирает от сытости, робкий умирает от голода», «Деньги – это не самое главное, но без них ты ничего не сможешь сделать» и «На первом месте – деньги». Чжэнь Чен лишился чистой совести, которой он руководствовался прежде, и начал пускаться на различные ухищрения, чтобы зарабатывать больше денег. Несмотря на то, что его зароботки возросли, а уровень жизни улучшился, Чжэнь Чен тем не менее чувствовал себя несчастным, и его мучило чувство опустошенности; жизнь была бесцельной и наполненной страданиями.
После того как Чжэнь Чэн принял работу Всемогущего Бога последних дней, он понял, что Бог любит честных людей и презирает обман. Чжэнь Чэн также осознал, что быть честным – это единственный способ поступать как истинный человек и единственный способ достичь Божьей похвалы, и поэтому он поклялся быть честным человеком. Однако быть честным человеком в реальной жизни оказалось не так просто: с братьями и сестрами в церкви он мог быть предельно открытым, но смог бы он зарабатывать, обладая такими качествами в деловом мире? Не исключено, что он не только зарабатывал бы меньше, но мог столкнуться с большими убытками и риском потерять свою мастерскую. ...Перед лицом таких трудностей сможет ли Чжэнь Чэн честно вести свой бизнес? Какие неожиданные взлеты и падения произойдут в ходе этого? Какой будет его высочайшая награда?...

MAAM = Museo dell’Altro e dell’Altrove di Metropoliz_città meticcia.
Da streetartattack.blogspot.it/2013/10/district-913-roma.html:
Nato nel 2012, al termine del cantiere cinematografico e d’arte “Space Metropoliz”, il MAAM è un progetto di Giorgio de Finis. Contro-dipositivo situazionista e relazionale, si pone accanto e in concorrenza con le grandi istituzioni museali italiane e della capitale (il MAXXI e il MACRO), facendo della sua perifericità, della sua totale assenza di fondi, della sua non asetticità (il MAAM è un museo abitato) il suo punto di forza. Avviando un nuovo virtuoso rapporto tra arte e città e tra arte e vita, il Metropoliz si sta dotando, grazie al MAAM, di una pelle preziosa e di una collezione che l’aiuteranno a proteggersi dalla minaccia sempre incombente dello sgombero coatto. Il MAAM si prefigge di trasformare l’intera fabbrica occupata in un oggetto e in un soggetto d’arte collettiva. Gli artisti sono invitati a dare il loro contributo gratuitamente, interagendo con lo spazio e con gli abitanti. E non si può dire che non lo stiano facendo.
Oltre i “relitti” di Space Metropoliz (il telescopio di Gian Maria Tosatti, i muri dipinti di Sten & Lex, Lucamaleonte, Mr. Klevra, Hogre, la bandiera di Paolo Assenza, l’orto lunare di Fabio Pennacchia, il grande razzo costruito dagli abitanti della fabbrica occupata con l’aiuto di Stalker), la Pinacoteca Domestica Diffusa, oltre venti opere di arte contemporanea collocate nelle case degli abitanti di Metropoliz e fotografata da Carlo Gianferro, la “Stanza dei Giochi” (intervento site specific per la ludoteca di Metropoliz ad opera di Veronica Montanino e Alice Pasquini), la “Cattedralehouse_room#2” (opere di Cristiano Petrucci, Gianni Asdrubali, Veronica Montanino), il 5 ottobre il MAAM presenterà le nuove acquisizioni e i lavori realizzati nel corso dell’estate.
Le due nuove stanze d’artista, “Windows M” di Maddalena Mauri e ”Where are the flowers gone” di Micaela Lattanzio. L’intervento murario, tutto in polvere di grafite, che Maddalena Mauri realizza per il nuovo spazio galleria di Metropoliz, moltiplica le finestre della grande stanza dove un tempo stagionavano i salami della Fiorucci, invitando il mondo ad entrare. Un auspicio, per la fabbrica occupata, che coincide con il programma di eventi settimanali del nuovo spazio espositivo, uno dei dispositivi che il MAAM ha deciso di attivare per aprire con regolarità il cancello del 913 al quartiere e alla città, riducendo l’effetto enclave che pregiudizio e necessità di difendersi dallo sgombero rischiano di innescare. La porta “a saloon” della galleria che propone un enorme cuore diviso in due è un’opera di Paolo Angelosanto. La stanza di Micaela Lattanzio è invece uno spazio intimo, un invito alla “meditazione”, un’oasi di pace per chi, come il Chaplin di “Tempi moderni”, si trova incastrato ogni giorno nei meccanismi della metropoli (i suoi fiori di carta, oltre seimila, si liberano dagli ingranaggi e volano via…). Un luogo, questa preziosa stanza “fiorita”, che sembra condividere lo spirito delle stanze de Les Nymphéas di Monet all’Orangerie.
“District 913” tira via il telo anche sulla nuova “piazza” realizzata da Massimo Di Giovanni con L.U.N.A. una enorme sfera di ferro e legno che l’artista incastra tra le travi di un tetto crollato, che lo stesso Di Giovanni ha restaurato e messo in sicurezza). L’opera ha voluto rendere un omaggio all’idea della migrazione esoplanetaria alla conquista della luna narrata dalla favola contemporanea “Space Metropoliz” e all’idea che, lavorando tutti insieme, l’Altrove lo si possa alla fine portare sulla Terra. Altre grandi sfere saranno disseminate nella fabbrica da EPVS, a rendere il percorso difficile e claustrofobico (EPVS_ Bubbling 4 you #913# by EPVS).
Molto rilevanti anche i nuovi interventi di street art realizzati a Metropoliz. Dal grande muro d’ingresso sulla via Prenstina, firmato Borondo, e realizzato in collaborazione con la 999 Contemporary, alla meridiana di Rub Kendy (.R.E.V.O.L.U.T.I.O.N.), allo stencil di Lucamaleonte che riproduce, sulla facciata dell’ex-salumificio che guarda ai recenti scavi archeologici del lotto di fronte, il bassorilievo dei Musei Capitolini raffigurante la caccia al cinghiale. E ancora Alice Pasquini, Solo (con “Plan D, last level”), Diamond (con la porta “Welcome to Metropoliz”), Opiemme (“Questo muro ha un nuovo messaggio”). E ancora Giulio Vesprini, Gio Pistone, Cancelletto, omino71.
Tra le nuove opere acquisite dal MAAM segnaliamo quelle di Pablo Echaurren (“Suburbano disumano”), a cura di ARIA [rivista d’artista], Massimo Attardi (“Lang”, un omaggio all’autore di “Metropolis” che strizza l’occhio anche al gioco “facce di luna” di “Space Metropoliz”), Guendalina Salini (che ripropone in collezione permanente l’installazione “Dove comincia il lontano”), gli interventi murari di Marco Tamburro, Seboo Migone, Paolo Assenza, l’opera di Germano Serafini ”Composizione M”, quella di Michela de Mattei “Metropolitz. Pianoterra / piano, Terra” (a cura di Silvia Litardi), il lightbox di Salvatore Mauro “Pianeta dei Naufraghi”, i nuovi interventi di Santino Drago (”Sangue versato in mostra” e “Asilo politico”).

On a hot day in June this year, Mark and I went to visit a local beauty spot, a seaside village - Manorbier.
I have long been interested in the Bloomsbury Group and
gleefully picked up Virginia Woolf A Biography for 50p at a car boot sale a few months ago. I was delighted to discover that she was a regular summer visitor to Manorbier from 1904.
The image above is of one of two houses in which she is purported to have stayed. At the time it was called Sea View. It was known as Blue Dolphins when Lesley Kenton lived there a few years ago and now it is named Vigilant House after the present owners' boat. Taking a deep breath and grasping my courage in both hands, I knocked on their door to ask permission to photograph the outside of their house. They very kindly said yes and were incredibly welcoming and helpful...inviting us inside for a brief tour, even though they were preparing a supper for visitors who would be arriving later on that afternoon.
Reading her biography, by her nephew, Quentin Bell, I also learned with delight that she was the great-niece of Julia Margaret Cameron www.profotos.com/education/referencedesk/masters/masters/..., another lady I have long admired for her independent spirit and sublime images www.geh.org/ne/mismi3/cameron_sld00001.html
Thank you George Eastman House for 163 detailed selected images

Why build an automotive museum? Because one way or another, our lives are touched by the automobile. We remember our parents’ cars, the ones we traveled in with family, the ones we borrowed for our first car date, the first ones we bought. The fast cars, the junkers, the modified ones and the ones we rebuilt—all of them are tied to us in memory. We even dream of cars.
William E. Backer, former owner of Backer Potato Chip Company in Fulton, Missouri, looked back in time and found that a vintage automobile was a thing of fascination. His memories were of old country roads and two lane highways. Bill Backer was an engineer and a builder who loved to tinker. Having built a successful potato chip company, he looked back at the cars that were part of his childhood. Shortly after, he owned a Canadian 1924 Dodge Touring. Dark blue with black fenders and a cloth top. Bill drove his family around the back country roads of Callaway County, Missouri and felt himself touching fading memories.
Not long after he collected the Dodge, Bill had a 1909 Ford Model T. Soon after that, a 1930 Model A. Then a 1929 Cord, a 1931 Rolls Royce Phantom II, a 1957 Chevy Bel Air, and so on. By the mid 1990’s, the number of classic autos in the collection neared 100. Bill found a home for many of his classic cars in an old retail building in Fulton. The Auto World Museum Foundation was formed and a classic car museum was opened to the public. Ten years later, in 2006, the automobile museum was moved to its current home at 200 Peacock Drive in Fulton. It is a building dedicated to the history of vintage and modern automobiles as well as the history of Callaway County and Fulton, Missouri.
After his passing in 2008, his daughter, Vicki McDaniel, assumed leadership of the museum and the collection of cars. Since then, the collection of vintage autos has changed a little. However, her primary passion is for the presentation of antique cars and modern ones in a place that everyone can visit.
The presentation of cars and staging of the museum is the vision of Tom K. Jones, Artistic Director of TKJ Designs in Fulton, Missouri. His concept for the museum was a movement through time and a portrayal of the history of Callaway County, Missouri. Auto World Museum is a stage—a movement through history. Its deep black curtains, scenes from back when, panels of advertising and memorabilia will take you through a history of motion in time. At first, you will visit a period not that long ago, although some say 100 years is a long time. As you move in a clockwise direction through the museum, you will find enticing displays. The simplicity of family drives in the convertible. The decadence of Hollywood and its fancy cars. The sights and sounds of the drive-in as you watched from the comfort of your Studebaker or Corvair. You will ponder when gas prices were really, really low. Finally, you will find yourself nearing the future, with displays of alternative fuel vehicles.
Auto World Museum will spark your curiosity. We hope that you will find that our collection of vintage and modern automobiles fascinates you the way that it did Bill Backer. We hope you will continue the journey with us as we add to the collection over time. We would like to thank William Harrison for his dedication to the research on the autos in the museum.

Da it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Craco e www.basilicatatour.com/craco.html:
Craco è un centro in provincia di Matera che dista 54 km dal capoluogo. Sorge nella zona collinare che precede l'Appennino Lucano a circa 390 m. s.l.m., a metà strada tra i monti e il mare, nella parte centro-occidentale della provincia. Il territorio è vario, con predominanza dei calanchi, profondi solchi scavati in un terreno cretoso dalla discesa a valle delle acque piovane.
A causa di una frana di vaste proporzioni, nel 1963 Craco iniziò ad essere evacuata e parte degli abitanti si trasferì a valle, in località "Craco Peschiera". Allora il centro contava quasi 2000 abitanti. La frana che ha obbligato la popolazione ad abbandonare le proprie case sembra essere stata provocata da lavori di infrastrutturazione, fogne e reti idriche, a servizio dell'abitato. Nel 1972 un'alluvione peggiorò ulteriormente la situazione, impedendo un eventuale ripopolazione del centro storico e dopo il terremoto del 1980 Craco vecchia venne completamente abbandonata.
Ad onta di questo esodo forzato, Craco è rimasta intatta, trasformandosi in un paese fantasma.
Nel 2010, il borgo è entrato nella lista dei monumenti da salvaguardare redatta dalla World Monuments Fund.
Il comune, nella realizzazione di un piano di recupero del borgo, ha istituito, dalla primavera del 2011, un percorso di visita guidata, lungo un itinerario messo in sicurezza, che permette di camminare sul corso principale del paese, fino a giungere a quello che resta della vecchia piazza principale, sprofondata in seguito alla frana. Nel dicembre 2012, è stato inaugurato un nuovo itinerario, che permette di addentrarsi nel nucleo della città fantasma.
Craco è stata scelta da molti registi come location per i loro film:
-- 1953: La lupa di Alberto Lattuada;

I viaggiatori che si avventurano a Craco si trovano immersi in un'atmosfera a dir poco surreale, circondati dal paesaggio lunare dei “calanchi” resi celebri dal “Cristo si è fermato a Eboli” di Carlo Levi; olivi secolari misti a cipressi antichissimi sono dal lato del paese verso lo scalo, quest'ultimo sulla ferrovia calabro lucana da questo lato divelta e abbandonata.

On Isola Bella in Lake Maggiore.
Views taken from inside the Borromeo Palace, of the other islands, and areas around the palace.
Isola Bella (lit. 'beautiful island') is one of the Borromean Islands of Lago Maggiore in north Italy. The island is situated in the Borromean Gulf 400 metres from the lakeside town of Stresa. Isola Bella is 320 metres long by 400 metres wide and is divided between the Palace, its Italianate garden, and a small fishing village.
Until 1632 the island—known only as l’isola inferiore or isola di sotto—was a rocky crag occupied by a tiny fishing village: but that year Carlo III of the influential House of Borromeo began the construction of a palazzo dedicated to his wife, Isabella D'Adda, from whom the island takes its name. He entrusted the works to the Milanese Angelo Crivelli, who was also to be responsible for the planning the gardens. The works were interrupted around middle of the century when the Duchy of Milan was struck by a devastating outbreak of the plague.
Construction resumed when the island passed to Carlo’s sons, Cardinal Giberto III (1615–1672) and Vitaliano VI (1620–1690); the latter in particular, with the financial backing of his elder brother, entrusted the completion of the works to the Milanese architect Carlo Fontana and turned the villa into a place of sumptuous parties and theatrical events for the nobility of Europe.
The completion of the gardens, however, was left to his nephew Carlo IV (1657–1734). They were inaugurated in 1671.
The island achieved its highest level of social success during the period of Giberto V Borromeo (1751–1837) when guests included Edward Gibbon, Napoleon and his wife Joséphine de Beauharnais, and Caroline of Brunswick, the Princess of Wales. It is said that Caroline, having fallen in love with the place, did her best to convince the Borromeo family to sell her Isola Madre or the Castelli di Cannero islands; her request being turned down, she established herself on the banks of Lake Como at Cernobbio in the Villa d’Este.

Event Video: www.americanprogressaction.org/events/2009/12/minority.html
“Republicans have chosen slogans and symbolism over substantive proposals,” said House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer (D-MD) at a Center for American Progress Action Fund event Monday. Hoyer spoke at the event about congressional Republicans’ “lockstep opposition” to working with Democrats on crafting and passing major pieces of legislation this year that deal with serious challenges facing the country, including health care, climate change, and the economic stimulus. This stubbornness has earned Republicans—who are the minority party in Congress—the nickname “the party of no.”
Hoyer listed several examples of Republican obstructionism this year. House Minority Whip Eric Cantor (R-VA) was quoted as saying that his party’s approach to the president’s agenda was going to be to “just say no.” Rep. John Boehner (R-OH) read a 300-page amendment to the House clean-energy and climate bill in June to delay a vote. And earlier this month Senator Judd Gregg (R-NH) circulated a “how-to” guide to all his Republican colleagues that outlined how Republicans can obstruct and hold up needed health care reforms in the Senate.
What makes this obstructionism worse, said Hoyer, is that Republicans aren’t putting forth any ideas of their own. Instead, they’re spending all of their energy criticizing Democrats and the president. Hoyer approached his friend and colleague Rep. Roy Blount (R-MO) and asked him for alternatives to the health care legislation the House passed last month. Blount didn’t offer Hoyer anything.
The Democrats may view the Republicans’ pigheaded strategy as benefitting them by causing the Republicans to be viewed as unproductive and negative. But Hoyer said “that is not good for Congress or our nation’s future.”
“When Congress doesn’t have two parties talking, less substance is debated openly,” Hoyer explained. Power devolves from Congress toward the Federal Reserve, the Environmental Protection Agency, and the courts. And the divisiveness does the public a disservice since people expect their representatives to do something about the issues they’ve deemed important, such as entitlement programs, out-of-control health care spending, and climate change.
Just because a party is in the minority doesn’t mean they have to unequivocally oppose everything the majority does. A “history of constructive minorities shows how much we should expect and demand of them,” Hoyer said. He pointed to the 1964 Civil Rights Act, when President Lyndon B. Johnson reached across the aisle to Senator Minority Leader Everett Dirksen (R-IL), who helped form a coalition to pass the bill and wrote parts of it. A more recent example is Senator Edward Kennedy’s (D-MA) push to help pass President George W. Bush’s No Child Left Behind Act in 2001.
Hoyer went on to say that, “I have not just talked this talk—I have walked it.” He has worked with Rep. Bob Ney (R-OH) on the Help America Vote Act and with Rep. Joe Barton (R-TX) on the Americans with Disabilities Act, among others.
Hoyer thought pressure from the public and within the Republican party itself could overcome the deadlock in Congress. “The rank and file of the Republican party is not comfortable with ‘the party of no,’” he said, and the public expects lawmakers to “engage constructively.” The pressures facing the nation at times prevail over the pressures that divide it—this was true when House Speaker Newt Gingrich and President Bill Clinton balanced the budget in the late 1990s.
Republicans were able to step up earlier this year, as well. Hoyer highlighted the Republicans who voted for the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act in February. “There are still those willing to act,” he said.

Sprengel Museum Hannover
PHOTOGRAPHY CALLING!
09. October 2011 – 15. January 2012
Sprengel Museum HannoverSprengel Museum Hannover
IN ASSOCIATION WITH THE
LOWER SAXONY SAVINGS BANK FOUNDATION
PHOTOGRAPHY CALLING! is an exhibition of the works of 31 photographers on a floor area of over 2,000 square metres. Since HOW YOU LOOK AT IT in 2000, this exhibition is the first and only one to provide an all-embracing overview of artistic photography from the 1960s to the present day. The exhibition has been organized by the Sprengel Museum Hannover in collaboration with the Lower Saxony Savings Bank Foundation. Starting out from the Foundation’s collection of large groups of works by both American and European photographers, the only collection of its kind in Europe, the exhibition explores the history and perspectives of the ‘documentary style’ of photography.
PHOTOGRAPHY CALLING! constitutes yet a further step towards establishing Hanover as an important centre for artistic photography in the north of Germany.
The starting points of the exhibition are the works of Robert Adams, Diane Arbus, Lewis Baltz, Bernd and Hilla Becher, William Eggleston, Lee Friedlander, John Gossage, Nicholas Nixon, Martin Parr and Michael Schmidt. The artist photographers Rineke Dijkstra, Paul Graham, Thomas Struth and the photographers of the generations that followed, such as Jitka Hanzlová, Stephen Gill, Jochen Lempert, Elisabeth Neudörfl, Heidi Specker and Tobias Zielony, visualize the world with a style of photography that adheres strictly to the medium and yet is highly subjective. Max Baumann, Boris Mikhailov, Rita Ostrowskaja and Helga Paris extend the perspective with experiences of their own confrontations with different political systems, while Laura Bielau, Thomas Demand, Hans-Peter Feldmann, Andreas Gursky, Thomas Ruff, Wolfgang Tillmans and Jeff Wall use the documentary style of photography as a means of exemplifying the phenomena of visual perception. Many of the works are being exhibited for the very first time.
Integrated into the exhibition are three successive Project Rooms organized by three guest curators and each taking place for the duration of one month. They thematize three different methods of collecting and three different ways of using photography.
From 9.10. until 30.10.2011 the artist Thierry Geoffroy will investigate the idea behind the title of the exhibition – PHOTOGRAPHY CALLING! – and ask: Who calls whom and what, and for what purpose, and out of what interests? On 1.11.2011 Markus Schaden will be setting up a study room devoted to the photography book as a ‘storage medium’ and collector’s item. From 6.12.2011 until 15.1.2012 Wilhelm Schürmann will be exposing the obsessions that can be the driving force behind a private collection of photographs, graphics, paintings and sculptures.
In the run-up to the exhibition HOW YOU LOOK AT IT at the Sprengel Museum Hannover, which was curated by Thomas Weski and Heinz Liesbrock on the occasion of EXPO 2000, the Lower Saxony Savings Bank Foundation began to purchase comprehensive groups of works by selected American and European photographers. Since then, the collecting activity of the Foundation has been focused on those works of photography that may be understood to be in the tradition of the ‘documentary style’ (Walker Evans, 1903-1975) and have been exercising a strong influence on photography since the end of the 1960s. Thus it has been possible – thanks not least to the recommendations of a high-calibre advisory board – to build up a photographic collection distinguished by its concentration on groups of works. In this regard the collection is unique in Europe.
The Lower Saxony Savings Bank Foundation’s collection and its perspective are now to be the subject of the present exhibition, which is being mounted jointly with the Sprengel Museum Hannover and also in the context of the Museum’s own well-cultivated photography tradition, which began in 1979 and can boast exhibitions of such great exponents of photography as Karl Blossfeldt, El Lissitzky, Judith Joy Ross and Michael Schmidt, to name only a few of many, or the “SPECTRUM” International Prize for Photography of the Foundation of Lower Saxony. ‘Collecting’ manifests itself here as an open system that operates self-reflexively in the aforementioned Project Rooms and is future-oriented and discussion-friendly in the exhibition’s supplementary events.
PHOTOGRAPHY CALLING! is accompanied by a copious publication (Steidl, Göttingen). Visitors will also be offered a comprehensive information programme.
The exhibition has been curated by Inka Schube, Curator for Photography and Media Art, Sprengel Museum Hannover, and Thomas Weski, Professor of “Curatorial Cultures”, Academy of Visual Arts, Leipzig.

A 'kitchen sink solution' on jobs
By: Chris Frates
June 15, 2011
The center-left Washington think tank Third Way is holding a forum Wednesday to discuss the merits of allowing companies to bring the $1 trillion in profits parked overseas back to the United States at a temporarily reduced tax rate.
The morning forum at Union Station will include Sen. Kay Hagan (D-N.C.); Democratic Reps. Loretta Sanchez of California and Jared Polis of Colorado; former Service Employees International Union President Andy Stern; Duke Energy chief executive Jim Rogers; and George Schink, managing director of Navigant Economics.
Third Way’s vice president of communications, Sean Gibbons, said the forum is designed to determine whether the idea — which is anathema to many liberals — is a viable option for jump-starting U.S. job growth.
“We have unemployment near 9 percent. We’ve basically pulled every single lever we can as a government. … We’ve done almost everything we can to get the economy going. It’s time to throw in the kitchen sink. This is a kitchen sink solution,” Gibbons said. One trillion dollars “is a lot of coin. It’s sitting overseas. If we could bring over a significant portion of that back into the economy, we believe that would stimulate demand, and demand stimulates jobs.”
It’s not a perfect solution, Gibbons said, but one the Republican-controlled House might be willing to entertain.
He acknowledged that analysts don’t yet know how many jobs such a policy might create. But, he said, bringing money back to the U.S. creates demand, which in turn drives hiring.
The forum is the first public event of the think tank’s new corporate tax reform project directed by former Rep. Dan Maffei (D-N.Y.), who’s now a Third Way senior fellow.
Right now there is over a trillion dollars in global profits earned by American businesses sitting overseas. What if we lowered the bar for companies to bring that money back home?
Third Way hosted an Idea Forum that examined the economic and policy implications of a repatriation tax holiday that would allow American multinational companies to bring overseas profits back to the U.S. for investment at a reduced tax rate.
Featuring a distinguished panel of leaders from business, labor, economics and government, the forum offered a fruitful discussion of a repatriation holiday’s impact on hiring and investment, business practices, and future tax policy. Participants include Senator Kay Hagan, (D-NC), Congresswoman Loretta Sanchez (CA-47), Congressman Jared Polis (CO-2), Andy Stern, former President of the Service Employees International Union, Jim Rogers, CEO of Duke Energy and Dr. George Schink, Managing Director and Principal of Navigant Economics.
This Idea Forum is the first public event of Third Way’s new corporate tax reform project, managed by former Congressman (and now Third Way Senior Fellow) Dan Maffei, which will advance ideas to make the code fairer, simpler, and more pro-growth.
Lori Deiter and I made it to RGSP just after 8am...
We hiked from the Lake Rose parking lot down the Highland Trail, onto Glen Leigh, stopped at Waters Meet, continued on Ganoga Glen and back to the Lake Rose parking lot. Made it back to her vehicle around 1pm
Glen Leigh water flow is quite low, but Ganoga Glen seems to have a little bit more.

Preserve History
Originally named Dragon Lake Forest Preserve, Springbrook Prairie was slated to be the home of a 200-acre dragon-shaped lake, complete with a swim beach and campgrounds. However, the emergence of a significant grassland bird population eventually led the District to abandon the idea of a lake and to look at ways to restore the preserve to a native prairie landscape.
Recently, the District has secured over $1 million in grants to fund a stream re-meandering project to return the western part of Spring Brook to a more natural state. By returning the twists and turns and by making a wider, shallower bank, the District will improve water quality by slowing the flow and will also allow the stream to easily pour over its banks and into the preserve during heavy rains, improving floodwater-control features.
Activities & Facilities
At Springbrook Prairie Forest Preserve in Naperville, visitors will find 1,849 acres of swaying grasslands, restored prairies and wetlands. Over 90 species of birds, 18 different mammals, and nearly a dozen species of reptiles and amphibians call Springbrook Prairie home. With a little diligence, bird watchers may spot several native grassland species including meadowlarks, dickcissels, grasshopper sparrows, woodcocks, and bobolinks and state-endangered birds like northern harriers, short-eared owls and Henslow's sparrows. Springbrook Prairie is one of three places in northern Illinois to house such a regionally significant grassland bird community.
Outdoor Recreation
Trails
The preserve's 13 miles of trails stay to the perimeter, giving visitors wonderful views and wildlife extra privacy. Over 8 miles are open to hikers, bikers, horseback riders and cross-country skiers, and over 2 miles of narrow, mowed trails allow people on foot a closer view of the preserve's natural features. Sections of the trail may be closed during key bird breeding seasons to protect critical nesting habitats.
Picnicking
Springbrook Prairie features a non-reservable picnic shelter at the trailhead off of 83rd Street. A second non-reservable picnic area is located off of Plainfield-Naperville Road.

Devocional diario | Ya entiendo el verdadero significado de “Consumado es”, lo que dijo el Señor Jesús
Esa mañana de domingo era como cualquier otra, cuando abrí mi Biblia, comencé mis devociones espirituales y vi que Hebreos 9:28 decía: “Así también Cristo, habiendo sido ofrecido una vez para llevar los pecados de muchos, aparecerá por segunda vez, sin relación con el pecado, para salvación de los que ansiosamente le esperan”. Cuando pensé en esto detenidamente, no pude evitar sentirme confundida. “Eso no puede ser”, pensé. “¿Acaso cuando el Señor Jesús dijo ‘Consumado es’ en la cruz no quiso decir que la obra de Dios para salvar al hombre se había completado totalmente? Cuando el Señor regrese, podremos entrar en el cielo inmediatamente y tener un banquete con el Señor, ¿cómo puede ser que esto diga que el Señor Jesús aparecerá de nuevo para salvar al hombre cuando Él regrese? ¿Qué es lo que significa esto?”.
Cuanto más pensaba en ello, más dudas tenía en mi corazón … “¡Esto no puede ser! Debo encontrar a alguien para compartir esta palabra conmigo”, pensé. Justo entonces, me vino a la mente mi compañera de trabajo de la iglesia, la hermana Xiao Xue. Solíamos hablar de la Biblia y justo en ese mismo momento la hermana Xiao Xue volvió de una reunión en otro sitio; no había nada que no me pudiera ayudar a encontrar.
